Subdeacon Joe Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Riveting! Fascinating! Well narrated with impeccably accuracy in choice of photos! Although technically the Starr I s a single action with a finger actuated cocking lever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpo Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I thought I could stand it. Even when he started talking about the Smith & Wesson Model 3. First, there is not and never has been a Smith & Wesson Model 3. It's a number three. The lowest model number Smith and Wesson has ever had is the Model 10. People insist on calling the number three the Model 3, but they are wrong. But then when he explained that the number four most popular revolver in the old west was the 1873 lever action rifle - I just gave up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 The narrative was close but the video was like they let some complete idiot edit it. Then the mixing up of guns and cylinders hinging out the wrong side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rye Miles #13621 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 The Schofield is a little different than the #3 S&W. The latch to open it was a little different thanks to General Schofield who if I remember right he committed suicide with that weapon.

Pat Riot Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 “This vodeo delves into…blah, blah, blah…” Vodeo? WTH is a “vodeo”? “Point four four Russian. Point four five Colt…” Okay, I’m done. It’s either an AI generated video or a video devised by people who only have half the information but try to come across as knowledgeable. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether the gun is a 44 or 45 is irrelevant. The American is a number 3. The Russian is a number 3. The Schofield is a number 3. And the 1881 double action is a number 3.

Blackwater 53393 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 They used a LOT of Hickock 45 footage!! The narration was pretty annoying and sometimes inaccurate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True but the latch release was different on the Schofield. https://gundigest.com/more/classic-guns/smith-wessons-most-famous-top-break-the-schofield/amp Edited March 19 by Rye Miles #13621 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
