The only reason we like old stuff is because it brings us back to that era its cool because its rare so why not enjoy it, if your talking about a gun and know it wont blow up in your face shoot it its way more fun than holding it :) Oldest gun I own is my wifes, a 12G side by side from 1902, it shot like it was made last week...Only WAAAAAAY smoother :)

I completely agree, and extended this same philosophy to my other equipment. As an example, on my old cars etc. If it's really nice but not a cherry or one off i have no problems putting the original engine and trans preserved on my shelf and building the motor i want for it. If it bolts on and requires no permanent modification BUT allows me to use it and demonstrate its potential to a younger generation whom i can allow to operate it and see the massive difference between theory, simulation, imagination and actually doing it, while preserving the original parts from wear I go for it!

I have 3 shotguns that seem to be around WWI era, and of course the 1932 Mosin. I shoot them all. Now I take it easy and only throw a few low based shotshells through the old shotguns, but I get them out every now and then, shoot them, clean them back up, and it just feels right.

@kenibnanak5554 5 жыл бұрын

You gain a lot of appreciation for today's guns and how far they have come when you start off with some old, single shot, black powder pieces and experience the progression of designs up to the modern world's AKs and ARs. Similar when you start off with a flintlock pistol and move on to percussion revolvers, early cartridge pistols, then early semi autos before finally reaching your CZs and Glocks.

This video resonated with me. Especially examples used. I’m currently in the process of cleaning up an unfired No 4 Mk1*. Only in cosmoline and already no wrap etc but plan to shoot that. Also have a rare Albini Braendlin 577 Snider based off the P53 Enfield made by Holland & Holland which was Australia’s first cartridge rifle. Spent a lot of time researching proper loads and absolutely love shooting it now. Surprisingly accurate too. Also have the Swiss Vetterli converted for centrefire... always make a new pin and save the original! I can say both yours and Mark’s videos have inspired me to shoot old historic rifles.

Last month I shot a Winchester 1873 38-40 made in 1888 for the first time. Last year I had the firing spring (not sure of the technical term, but the leaf spring on the lower tang) replaced.

One of the most fun rifles I've ever had the opportunity to shoot is a Winchester M1917 in 30-06. Winchester made the fewest of them from what I've been told and the gun will run all day and night. The trigger is wonderful and so are the iron sights. People if you have an old gun in shooting condition do yourself a huge favor and shoot it. There's a certain quality that modern guns lack compared to old guns and they deserve for people to know just how good they were and still are.

In 2011 we had an event where we commemorated the GP11 in service for 100 years. This had remained the service ammo for our army in Switzerland with some support weapons on our tanks although replaced by the 5.6 for individual rifles (Stg90). You will never imagine how many people turned up with their 96/11 and K11.

Funnily enough I just picked up my first ever black powder rifle made in 1852 this past weekend at a gun show. It's a Frenchie, I think it may be a P1851 Minié rifle. I'm taking it in to be inspected down the bore for any red flags and the stock on it looks to be new-er with no cracks, dings, gouges, etc. When taking it apart I found only a few spots of rust under the woodline but otherwise it looked like the rifle was extremely well-loved. I can't wait to put the oldest of my girls back to work!

My Uncle was at a Rendezvous where they were loaned Jim Bridger's rifle from a museum, as a display piece. They took it out and shot it, properly cleaned it, and returned it at the end of the get together. The museum staff commented on how clean and well oiled the rifle was when they brought it back. They said yes, it shot real nice, and if course we cleaned it properly and re oiled it. The museum staff about had a heart attack. They had no idea they would actually take it out and fire it.

The local gun club at my sisters has a gun from shortly before the 30 year war so from around 1590 to 1600, it was a gift from the local duke for defending the city. They used to shoot out the club king with this gun until shortly before WW1, now only the club king gets to take a traditional shot with it. It still shoots true and is a remarkable piece of art. It was at the time embalished to hell and back.
