I put a Montana Arms vernier sight on mine, with a taller front sight, and a folding rear sight.

I took a ride on one of those back in the day; never been the same since.

After Browning & Winchester had a falling out, Browning worked with FN. Except for the Remington Model 11 & some machine guns, no true Browning firearms have been made in USA since then.

Browning made exceptional firearms when they were in Belgium. I'm not sure how the Japanese firearms compare to them. Nice presentation.👍

Nice replica. How about showing the cartridges with their collection. Thanks Evan.

Thank you, Evan.

What would be the value of that beautiful piece? Ed from Lynchburg

👍 Agreed! That is an exceptionally beautiful rifle. Thank you for sharing.

One of my dream rifles

Hi Evan. Outstanding model this 1886. J.M. Browning was really a genius. A repeating rifle chambered in powerful cartridges to modernize the previous 1876 model. Great choice. God Bless. Happy Trails.

Imagine my interest in this story as I'm watching a movie from the 1950's called "Cattle King", a movie about travesties committed by Wyoming cattlemen.

Lines similar to the Spencer Rifle, isn’t it.

Lots of bad information on the internet, but a picture can speak volumes. I was taught to never trust just one source, always get at least three, if I can.

That’s actually a S&W 38 Single Action 2nd change. The “Baby Russian” was a 38 Single Action 1st model that had an extended barrel shroud like the model 3 Russian had.

My local airport has one of these exact beacons. Clear on once side, turquoise on the other. On a dark hazy night, you can see it over the trees from my home 5 miles away.

Do you ever bet to shoot any of the guns you evaluate. Would be fun I think

I would like to have seen the action being cycled in this video.

Interesting Rifle, thanks.

Odd how many dentists have invented stuff over years......I suppose it takes your mind off looking at rotting teeth and halitosis 😄

Very interesting thank you for sharing!👍🏽😊❤️🇺🇸

I'm eager to see their collection, what an honor for you to be asked to catalog their collection.

Its in amazing condition for its age.👍

Another gem of an obscure firearm, Evan. Really enjoy these Firearms Friday videos! 👍

Thank you Evan

Really enjoy your show!

Evan def goated fo deez vids tho us in da hood love Evan cause he loves dem guns as much as we do an I ain’t capping my ninjas it fr fr fo shizzle tho u feel me rite?????

Between wars (both US and European) and the westward expansion in the US, firearms development literally "exploded" in the 1800's. The various ideas tried are fascinating.

“Because it holds 32 bullets, and I ain’t a very good shot.”

Hi Evan. Nice rifle. A lot of firepower for the time, but certainly overshadowed by Winchester and Marlin rifles. God Bless. Happy Trails

If you had one of these back when they were available you probably must of felt like one of most well armed people in America.

The bright white background is painful.

I'm excited to find your KZbin channel. Great content and presentation! I watched your videos on the frontier knives and the Krag-Jorgensen rifle. Looking forward to the others you've donel. I hope to visit the museum soon. I was in Cheyenne in June, but didn't know about it. By the way, the 1895 with heavy recoil is the .405 rather than the .401. As I write that, I wonder if there may have been a .401 back in the day. .405 is the largest caliber now. I hope you keep digging through the museum inventory! It must be a treasure trove of amazing artifacts! It's such a great opportunity for a museum to reach out to the public beyond its walls to people that may never cross its threshold. Best regards, Evan!

Hi uk resident here. I have a Marble knife, handed down from grand parents, maybe even great grand parents. Origins unknown but I believe from the time of WW1. Got info stating it may have been made 1914. Has had the tip broken but very well repaired. Very fond of it but unfortunately we are unable to carry it in the UK. Still, takes me back to my childhood where I was told never to touch it as I used to sneak to the drawer where it was kept. Anyway just a little story...

As a carpenter & joiner I have an attachment to my hammers (three in total for differing tasks) I would not swap one for an extremely expensive new one. You know every single mark on your tool and feel an affinity with it. That is not Jim Bakers knife IMO.

The last sword you showed was a "barong". Used by the Moro People of the Philipines.

Thanks, excellent presentation.

You didn't say or prove the moccasin's were the woman's. The moccasin's look almost new, never worn ???

Wonder about the hardness of the steel. Would it snap/break if it were to be bent or would it be "soft" enough to bend and how much?

Thank you very much for showing us these beautiful pieces!! Excellent vid! Greetings from Germany

Pocket knife is a so called "Notschlachter" from Germany Solingen. Otter Messer still makes them with the lock!

Would be interested in more knives and hawks besides firearms. Thanks !

Ha Ha. This guy must know Ian!!!🤣

Interesting. Especially the big one. You can see the great many applications they could be used for. I live in New Zealand but have a keen interest in history. Over here I understand the Winchester 44-40 was used extensively for hunting right up until the 1930’s. thanks for sharing 🇺🇸 🇳🇿

Your my favorite firearms historian

And let's not forget the revolvers marked "American British Bulldog". Talk about trading on a name.

What a great piece! At Ft. Wise Colorado during the Civil War, a small Confederate scouting party was caught near the fort. A soldiers journal stated that the rebel party had old .69 cal Austrian rifles, which were confiscated. Some of the soldiers at the fort were having fun shooting the Austrian rifles outside the fort. I found the spot many years ago and detected a slew of fired and unfired .69 conical bullets. The sheer size and weight of the bullets compared to minie balls is unbelievable!

Love a mystery.

Documentation is vital to your property for insurance purposes. Inherited items are more understood with documentation. Good advice, Evan.

Theories are OK, but visual and tactile experiences are never forgotten. Bravo, WSM!

My grandfather, born 1901, was only 5'10", yet he had a college basketball scholarship. His handshakes were powerful. He had zero problems with big firearms.
