The Ljutic Space Gun (Repost: YouTube cut)

Having and enforcing "rules" but refusing to disclose them because then people would adjust to them and follow them is the most coward thing ever.

[@johnpaulvanson5170]

Listing the rules would hold KZbin accountable for their moderation, so they'll never do it. Too many pocket tyrants working for them moderating out of personal biases; they could never stick to an actual rule set day to day.

[@lukum55]

Its understandable how people blame KZbin but in reality this is not KZbins fault. KZbin is a free to use service and the way they make money is through advertising. Advertisers are very concerned about about their image and therefore they are very careful about where their ads are shown and guns are one of those contested topics, advertisers don't want their ads to be shown in gun related videos. KZbin must cater to the advertisers because if they don't the advertisers flee and KZbin doesn't get any money. If KZbin doesn't get money from ads they must get it from elsewhere and the easiest way would be to make KZbin a subscription based service instead of free to use. I still prefer KZbin to be free to use instead of having to pay a monthly subscription.

[@brianwaldo2642]

As an avid trapshooter for over 50 years, I had the pleasure of meeting Al and son Joe back in the 60’s and 70’s at the Grand American in Vandalia Ohio. Although the Spacegun didn’t take off, the Monogun was well sought after. It was a beautifully built piece and was often seen on the firing line. Your mention of the release trigger is interesting. It primarily came into popularity to midigate the effects of flinching. Most with this condition would jerk terribly when trying to pull the trigger and not allow them to actually pull the trigger resulting in a missed target. A release trigger did not cure a flinch, but when you did, the jerk would bring your finger off the trigger at the right time usually resulting in a broken target.

[@TheBurg229]

I’m an NSSA shooter, and you see release triggers from time to time. The purpose is to correct flinch when pulling the trigger. Personally, I think they’re unsafe. The procedure for a “no-bird” is to point the gun down range and shoot the round since there’s no way to release the trigger without firing.

[@simiwing]

Release triggers show up a lot in the trap world. On a break open shotgun, it is very easy to clear the gun after you set the trigger. You simply use your non-trigger hand to operate the barrel release lever. This lets the barrel pivot out of the way of the firing pin. You can then release the trigger as the firing pin won't contact the shell. On a semi-auto shotgun, I think they are very unsafe.

[@CCW1911]

How is firing the gun downrange in the direction you would be shooting anyway unsafe? I'm not a fan of release triggers in the least but understand why some people need them to continue in the sport they love. On break open guns you simply open the action and then release the trigger, with some pumps and semi autos applying the safety will reset the trigger a few have a separate lever to reset and some you have the choice of awkwardly ejecting the round or just firing the round downrange in a safe manner. The only sport I've competed in the allows release triggers is American Trap which only allows one round to be in the gun.

[@webby2275]

​@CCW1911 Consider how limited your options become if a person were to unexpectedly be found down range. That pretty much leaves you with keeping the trigger depressed, which keeps the gun about as unsafe as possible, firing upwards, firing downwards or firing around the person.

Ian, Many lifetimes gone, I shot skeet at the Oak Tree Gun Club in Southern California. Of course trap was the big draw and I actually shot a round or two but skeet was my game. But I digress. On several occasions I saw not one but two Ljutic Spaceguns in the gun racks. Always during trap tournaments. They were a can’t miss item! Interestingly, the gentlemen who owned said shotguns were only mediocre gunners at best. Once I witnessed an informal round of trap where the gentleman using the space gun was not the owner. In four rounds he scored 100 out of 100. Sometimes a good gun just needs to be in the right hands. Those shotguns were strange to behold yet strikingly handsome at the same time. Your specimen is very easy on the eyes. And in the intervening years it has grown significantly less strange. Thank you for a walk down memory lane. Or would it be a trip down the rabbit hole? Keep the aspidistra flying! God bless, Paul

I would almost prefer to see Forgotten Weapons move to a platform that cares about availability of information and historical completeness, especially as KZbin continues to prove that it will not continue to be an internet mainstay in the future.

There was also a rifle and pistol that was listed in Shooters Bible in the early 80's iirc.

"KZbin's new rules... that aren't published." What is this, a Franz Kafka novel? WTF, KZbin.

This really is a space gun, you could use it unaltered in a sci-fi setting to represent a fancy sporting "blaster".

Was wondering what's being changed and the first second in I can already see the R.I.A. sign was gone. Really? YT!?

Here's an official resume of KZbin's rules: Your video will be taken down if:, 1-Someone with money doesn't like it. 2-Some media company doesn't want you posting it. 3-A random KZbin employee dislikes you/your content/your video. 4-We decide the video has harmful content (as for what harmful content is, please refer to rules 1, 2 and 3).

Such an elegant gun.
