I love that little smirk Mae has whenever she's finished shooting a mag through a gun, kinda like a "hehe this is fucking awesome but i don't want anyone to know how much i enjoy this" kinda smile.

The K frame is truly God's gift to the revolver shooter. My first pistol was a Mod 17 and once proficient with that went to the Mod 15 which was replaced in my duty holster by the Mod 19. My last duty revolver was the Mod 66 2 1/2". In over forty five years of shooting the K frame is still my favorite revolver. I still have and use the 19 and the 66 just wish I had held on to the 15 and 17. Love your presentations and thank you for the effort you make.

You guys are awsome!!! I bought one from an online auction 2 years ago and just like you said, it was labeled as 32-20. So while I waited for this to arrive, I ordered all my reloading gear for this caliber. Got into a bit of an argument with the gun store guy because he kept saying it was a 38. Sure enough, on the cylinder it had a clear 38 stamped where the star should be. Anyway, I loaded some 32-20 and it fired them, just not very good at all. Again, just like you said. So it sat in the safe ever since and I could not find any information on this revolver. No markings on it besides serial numbers, 38 on the cylinder and Orbea Hermanos. None of my reloading books were of any help. Until I came across this video. I literally jumped off my couch as if watching a sporting event!!! Scared the crap out of my girlfriend sitting next to me. I looked up this caliber and found a video on how to make this ammo out of 32-20 components. That very day, I spent it making the ammo and tested it. Worked perfectly!!! Othias, Mae, you all rock!!! Thank you so much!!!

I have one of these in 32-20. Not the easiest ammo to find, but I managed to get ahold of some. Love this revolver. Locks up tight, no timing issues. Spanish guns are a bit like the older Japanese guitars. Their copies of sound designs. People give them a lot of grief, but they do the job and they do it fairly well.

This is yet another example of the outstanding work of your channel. Who knew that the Model 10 played a role in the war via Spain, yet, it was such a great gun that it was not surprising to learn that this S&W K frame pistol made an appearance in "The Great War". The gun was such a classic design, much like the Colt 1873 Single Action Army, that it was still in use many years after its introduction.

I've got one of the Trocaola Aranzabal ones. The shop I bought it from took the badly kerned barrel stamping ("TROCAOLAARAMZABALYCIAEIBAR(ESPANA)") for Mystery Pistol gibberish, figured it was a WWII-vintage Victory clone ("possibly Chinese?"), and listed it as chambered in, and I quote, ".32 S&W???" Thank you for the tidbit about the star marking indicating 8mm French chambering, I'd probably never have figured that out otherwise! I love digging into little mysteries like that. I think my favorite thing about mine is that they spelled their own name wrong in the aforementioned barrel stamping. It really says TROCAOLA ARAMZABAL, with an M. :)

Mae, just a quick tip that did wonders for my revolver shooting (with a S&W 10-1 that sits right in front of me as I watch this): Don't try to stage the trigger along your double action pull. An IDPA buddy of mine that shoots a lot more revo than I do, told me "keep the cylinder moving." The smoother and more contiguous that pull is, the more success I think you'll see. Not that your groups were anything at which to sneer, certainly.

Great presentation on these very misunderstood revolvers. I've seen Fiocchi 8mm Lebel revolver ammo occasionally. I hope they still make and import it. As far as shooting stance, I also collect old gun books and magazines, and wonder if you ever try to repeat those period correct holds and stances rather than the one handed high grip or the two handed combat stances of today. Would be interesting if you duplicated the 'limped wrist' or 'fencing' hold and see how it works with these old designs.

Great job once again guys, it's definitely thanks to this show that I can educate my family and friends if we come across WW1 surplus in a shop (I'm kind of eyeing a 200 dollar M95 Stutzen with a missing front sight blade because I know I can get the missing parts, but holding back because the ammo and clips are a major undertaking on a casual shooter budget).

Othais, Spanish manufacturers picked single V spring mechanism from Gasser 1877 copies which used Warnant mechanism with single V spring. About same time Swiss started using pretty similar mechanism with single V spring on their model 1882 revolver. Fagnus revolver (which was one of highest quality European revolvers of the period) also used it since 1878.

Gasser 1877 copies should have it... Speaking of Bodeo, look at this, it is in french 8mm Mle 92 caliber with 9(!) rounds cylinder. No markings at all, except "1892" on the lanyard ring mount. I suspect it is Spanish but have no proof... Owners grandfather brought it from WW1 and despite appearance mechanically it is still excellent with very good timing and cylinder lock. 68.media.tumblr.com/d8771aed7272d57befa42ab5845ebcbe/tumblr_oj8b0sBCHv1sfltapo1_1280.jpg miniaturesandcostumes.tumblr.com/post/155365155005/most-probably-spanish-9-shot-copy-of-the-italian

Nice video. I have one of those Eibar Spanish revolvers. Mine is in .38 special, is nickel plated, and was made in 1924. It's timing is still good but I had to retire it, it began having light strikes. v_v

I saw a nickel plated TAC at a local shop the other day, very nice price, in .38 I think. I'll go back tomorrow and actually handle it. For the asking price it might be worth picking up. This review and a couple of print articles make me look more favorably at it, even though some of the forums have more negative opinions, probably out of ignorance, some lump them into the Saturday night special camp when clearly they are not that.

Hi, l have one of these guns with an entwined c & w. It's different because it's chambered for 38 special and 38 S&W. Otherwise it's the same as you show, Spanish proof marks and all. Good show. Thank you.

Caliber differences aside if its anything like my Victory Model which I sold over a decade ago, they are solid shooting revolvers, and though it was reputed to be under powered against the native tribesmen in Southeastern Asia, they were a Lend-lease import to Great Britain for the Pacific Theatre of Operations. The 1892 was a like case in point, an indiscriminate and descent copy by a foreign maker for a combatant unable to produce their own field service weapons in ample quantities, and made to run readily available munitions stores. If the idea is to put six home in a fit fashion, and not fall apart in your hands while reloading the cylinder for the next unlucky chap who may wander before your sights, it is a fine weapon for home defense or a camp gun to keep things in order. I would welcome having one if the situation demanded its necessity.

According to gunsmith Grant Cunningham, the Colts keep time just as well as the S&Ws do IF you keep up on the scheduled maintenance. The Colt system uses the hand to exert pressure on the cylinder, holding it solidly in place. When the trigger is pressed and held down on an S&W, there will be a tiny amount of play in the cylinder. This is not a problem, it's how the gun is designed and supposed to work. The Colt, on the other hand, when the trigger is pressed and held down, should have NO play in the cylinder AT ALL. None. The cylinder should stay put like it was welded to the frame until you release the trigger. Colts get out of time because when the hand starts to wear out, there begins to be a little play in the cylinder, and shooters used to S&Ws and other revolvers that are supposed to have this tiny amount of play think nothing of it and keep shooting the gun long after it should be serviced, and then it does go out of time. The Colt system causes the hand to wear a bit faster, but this is the most easily replaced part in the lockwork, and it gave the cylinder the "bank vault lockup" which was supposed to improve the gun's accuracy. As long as you replace the hand at the recommended intervals, Colt's keep time as well as any other revolver, but the wear to the hand is something you need to watch out for.

Nice episode. I love my K-frames; one of them dates to 1920. If I was running around the Western Front, I'd pick a M&P in .38 Special over any of the .32s.

Im amazed by the quality of your work, the animations, diagrams, etc coming from such a small channel. Your hard work shows. I just wish you guys could find a way to streamline your videos, cut the fat as it were, because an hour long youtube video is just a bit much. Just a recommendation.... Anyway saw a post war Spanish revolver at a gun shop for 100 bucks yesterday. Even at that price I couldnt justify buying it without knowing what it was. Went home to research and sure enough C&R has a detailed video on it haha! Went back today and it was sold. Just my luck.

Iv got on that the frame is cast iron and has 38 long stamped in the barrel. The cylinder has been milled with a stop for 38 spl. I'm still alil afraid to shot it tho since it's a cast frame.

I'm not a gunsmith, but speaking personally (and acknowledging that this is not risk-free), if the *cylinder* is steel, I'd go for it, with 38 long (or 38 special loaded to 38 long pressures) handloads. I'd probably stick to black powder, no finer than 2F. But if you don't want to chance it, that's perfectly understandable.
