Kind of a neat documentary on 'ammunition'

Post by AJMD429 »

It covers the pre-20th century stuff in more detail than I'd seen elsewhere. I'd heard of the needle-gun but not much about it. It's 30 minutes into the documentary prior to getting to 'centerfire cartridges'...!

Thanks for posting Doc, some interesting information, with all that BP smoke it's a pity we don't have Smellavision. 8)

Very cool, but as far as smell, I like the paper hull shotgun shells the best. I guess that is due to what I was around as a kid.

I have to agree, there was something special about those old paper hull cartridges.... :D
