And also the locked breach was patented at this time. So this rifle was a straight blowback and it really pushed the limits for a rifle that was to compete with the Remington Model 8. This rifle did see service in World War 1. Prior to machineguns, air crews needed a way to shoot for whatever reason, so the French bought some 1907s. The Model 8 was also used for this role.

@@geigertec5921The semiautomatic rifles were more expensive to produce, and when outfitting entire armies, price is key. Also, semiauto weapons were new and somewhat unproven in battle. Finally, military leaders still had relied on battle tactics originating in the Napoleonic era. They were afraid soldiers would waste too much ammo with bolt action rifles, let alone semiautomatic ones. Interestingly though, there are cases where semi automatic weapons were used in the war. This was on a very small scale though.
@jayb384311 ай бұрын
@@geigertec5921They had Alot of back and forth about different options back then, but the main reason I forget which general or top brass guy was against it just like back when they went from beach loading up to mag (grunt's will just waste all the ammo, get scared and either dump all of it or runout of what they had on them as they didn't carry Much) plus they were worried about reliability issues, training soldiers to fix things like jam's mid fight in stress, don't have to retrain the entire armory staff and less stuff to break for them to need to fix, cost was another BIG deal and I'm not sure how quickly they could have pumped out these guns even if somehow they had Winchester and Remington making the exact same gun and caliber (never would happen) ontop of the civilian success they had and we also already had them busy with regular rifle's, pistol etc for us and our ally's the main one being we NEEDED as many of those sweet sweet trench brooms of freedom for the Germans tench's so they could cry more, the other big thing is in almost every military situation it's hard for regular people to understand the scale they're operating on . They need all these guns, spare parts, trained repairman, a logistical and reliable pipeline of more components, guns or anything related for before and during war, Also we as a country had REALLY started to come together as a serious military power now that we got our independence, natives, Mexicans, Spanish, French, British again twice... And our civil war... Then again Spain and somehow the Philippines then Guam.. we pretty much been at war sense we had the first one to exist, the civil war was obviously a HUGE setback as we took the hit of both armies and then we had to build railroads to connect all of our people to be one full country because we're so spread out and then of course stop all the natives rating on the way over, and then from there they were still coming out of the civil war and into the late pretty much the same way as we left the civil war with a lot of guys using Springfield trapdoor rifles which are single shot breach loaders, or alot of modified muskets to breach loaded of different caliber, manufacturer it was a shit show and Alot of guys brought there own guns, like if they had a lever gun so we started really trying to be a giant cohesive force now we are all one, The Spanish war REALLY opened our eyes as to how bad of shape we were and how Superior they were compared to us with tactics equipment and everything and we basically copied a lot of things that they did but luckily we still won but they are the exact reason why we went from using the old school ball looking ammunition from the old rifles that you see into the new modern type rifles that are pointier that you see all over the place in the military like the 30 06.. it's called a spitzer bullet and WAYY more accurate, areo dynamic and does insane damage especially with more weight in the back they saw tumbling and expanding/fragmenting rounds for the first time and They Also had modern bolt action rifles so we dropped everything and the entire military agreed on a bolt action, magazine held stripper clip fed full size and power battle rifle and they had weird ideas about range and different things but whatever. So basically from the start of the 1900s we all agreed on the 1903 model rifle and I think it was showing a little before that started getting produced and we started buying them up for a military so now we all had the same done same parts I wanted to have one for every single soldier as well as ammunition storage foreverybody and parts as well and it was a very powerful rifle for the time super advanced almost no issues and you could hit somebody as far as you can see and you could actually go through pretty good armor and even really early tanks from up close. It takes a long time to get half a million rifle's, parts all the logistics trained armorer's, training for marksmen, and a shit ton of ammo storage. The first world war started in 1917 I believe and I don't think it by then they still had everything done yet which was 15 years later and it would have been that much worse if in 1908 or so they saw this new rifle and reset all over again and the benefit really wouldn't have been that great compared like yeah you might have had a little bit more but for all the extra effort and then it's an untested weapon and doctorine... Plus mounted real deal machine guns started being the norm as well as mortars, armored vehicles and all new tactics... other big problem most of the war was locked in trench warfare, semi auto rifle would not be much of a help and every army had big old rifle's and trenches were not close per say but not too far and taking pot shots and all the sniper's who specialize in trench sniper fights or sneaking out and sniping the man on the machine gun And keep killing any new ones while you're Men charge... Using a (for that time) EXTREMELY underpowered cartridge If I recall it's not much better than . 30 carbine was nowhere near the range, accuracy, power and retained power at range to blast barriers etc, the 30.06 is going to shoot way beyond your eyes and might kill someone a mile away at chow for all u know lol bullet drop and all was worse on the semi as well, they weren't the new style spitzer bullet and that's what they wanted, then of course the B. A. R. being the same caliber and similar size but heavier and the new mounted mg's with shotgun's and 1911 up close the bolts were just there for filler and cover fire, that ontop of the browning. 50 and . 3006 machine guns and the B. A. R. All the same caliber ( not. 50 but yeah) ALOT Less logistics as . 50 was more anti everything but personel.

The reason Winchester did the plunger style charging handle under the barrel was to get around Browning’s autoloading rifle patent (including a side charging handle) which he sold to Remington (and FN in Europe) because, if I remember correctly, Winchester insisted on buying it for a lump sum and refused to give him a royalty per gun sold like FN did with his 1900 pistol.

.351 win self loader cartridge is difficult to find, but not impossible. Or cheap. Which is why this round and maybe the only rifle chambered for it, are much more practical for a hand loader like myself. Dies are available and the rest is common components. The rifle itself is no longer a bargain however, and probably aren't going to decrease in value. Ever again. Also, there are high capacity magazines and I've seen a couple with pistol grips and carbine length barrels. This was quite advanced for 1907 and is now a great American classic firing a very cool round that many gun enthusiests have never even heard of, which I will always find much more desirable than another .35 rem or .308 any day. Very cool piece of American gun culture

Other early autoloaders include the Remington model 08 in .35 Remington and the first gas-op autoloader, Delaware's own "Standard Arms Corporation of Wilmington Delaware" Model G (for gas) also in .25, .30 and.35 Remington. It was about 70 years ahead of it's time as you could shut off the gas valve and switch it to pump action! That's right, it operated like a SPAS-12 back in 1911-1912! Standard also made a pump only version called the Model M (surprise!) They were only in production for about a year. There was also a Swiss made semi auto called "Mondragon" in 7x57mm Mauser that was issued to the Mexican army about 1907-1910.

Old guns are just something else. It's crazy how design of weaponry we consider modern goes back so many years. Hell, the M16 is an over 60 year old design, and guns like this go back a hundred years. Weapons design is a fascinating part of history and I think it should be treated as such: history. Not some unhealthy obsession, or some kind of inhumane science. Also, that gun is straight up cool as fuck.

Unlikely. Semi-auto doesn't help much when the weapon is overall more awkward to operate than a traditional bolt-action. The charging rod is in an unusual spot and would likely be hard to use with wet/muddy fingers. And, historically, spare mags weren't all that common back then, so the lack of a stripper clip guide doesn't do the 1907 any favors either.
