As an American I was exposed to Military Arms history in the context of the US. In particular the US Civil War. The only arms manufacturers from Europe being Whitworth, LaMat, and a scattering of others. I love the wealth of information found on this channel. Huge respect and gratitude to you sir!

Good day, Capandball. Thank you for your video. I have the Werndl and enjoy shooting it (and its successor, the Mannlicher in the same calibre). I recall reading, some time back, that the original cartridge for the Werndl was the brass foil-wrapped design similar to the familiar British Snider and Martini-Henry. Later changed to drawn brass. Unfortunately I did not make a note of the source. Would you have any information on a foil-wrapped cartridge? And, if there was one, whether the change to drawn brass occurred with the migration to the Mannlicher or earlier? Thank you for your time, Peter.

Great video on a very interesting rifle! I've already watched the teaser dozend times and now I can't wait to see part 2. Wonder if you hit anything beside the metallic silhouette- how is the precision of the rifle? 10 years earlier the gun could have changed the Austrian history or at least proof its quality. So it "only" protected a 40-year period of peace.

1:40 .:Actually,the ,,Zündnadelgewehr´´ was capable of more,than 12/13 rounds per minute..But in Battle,the reloading is slower at anytime,especially,because the soldiers fought in solid formations,so 12 rounds are realistic..Can you also speak german,or does the pronounciation of the german names just sound,as you could? ;)
@capandball10 жыл бұрын
Hi, I only read German, but can't speak unfortunately, just the very basics. :) According to the regulations there were two ways to fire the rifle: normal method with taking proper aim and "Schnellfeuer" for shooting at closed battle formations as fast as possible.

You say the Dreyse was capable of 12 RPM, but in your own later video on Koniggratz, you demo a rate of fire of 4RPM; 12 RPM seems excessive, would you care to comment. My question is posed in a genuine spirit of enquiry, I am a great fan of your site and your excellent coverage of my favourite period in history, 1866.
@capandball7 жыл бұрын
Hi, there were different firing modes for the prussian infantry. The one you see in the Königgrätz video is the general shooting speed. An important part of the tactics was the change to Schnellfeuer, the fastest loading and shooting method possible. This was used when the Austrians approached the skirmish line within 150 paces. At this time all the support and reserve rushed into the skirmish line, and immediately started firing at the enemy with the greatest speed, reducing the time allocated to aiming to the minimum.
@capandball7 жыл бұрын
Also the rifle I use in the video is an unaltered M1841. The M62 version were a bit more advanced fitted with a rubber seal by Beck. According to the original documents this did speed up the loading. I still have to verify it later. I am planning to make a comparison of the Dreyse and the Chassepot by the time of the Franco-Prussian war of 1870-71

Dear Sir, please ask more questions. That's what why we are all here for. :) The 1866 campaign is a key part of my PhD research as well. I am researching the participation of Hungarian units in the fighting at Trautenau. Regarding your question: I have not found any reliable source supporting the rearmament of the 1st LCD. In fact I strongly believe that such thing would be impossible in the k. k. army. Rearming a complete cavalry division is not just changing the arms but also establishing a logistic background for the supply of ammo, firearms part, repair services, etc... A complete cav. division is 6 cav. regiments in 3 brigades... that's a huge number of soldiers. The "division" was used for 2 different units in the k.k. army. It was used for the large combined arms groups mentioned before and for pairs of companies or cavalry squadrons as well. These pairs were the basic tactical units of the army by those days. I can imagine that one "company pair" division could be armed with experimental weapons. It was a common way to field test new arms, but I cannot imagine rearming a combined army unit. I will try to get some info where this myth comes from.
@MrCameronian7 жыл бұрын
I think he is confused, either he's got the wrong war and mixed up Lichtenstein (who used his personal fortune to modernise the Theresien artillery in the SYW) or - more likely - mistook the ECG which was issued preferentially to 1st Div (Edelsheim) as opposed to the limited introduction in 2nd Div (Thurn). Trautenau, a fascinating battle, have you met Vlasimil Grof yet, regional archeologist, 1866 expert and curator of the Johannesburg Chapel museum ? What you are to small arms, he is to KK artillery and rockets, really interesting chap.

1000 meters is quite an optimistic range even in today's modern smokeless powder, with an average shooter, they must have been visiting those opium dens very frequently when they dreamed up that.
@HaraldSjellose6 жыл бұрын
isellcatlitter it isn't actually. at those ranges, the goal was to keep the bullet lethal, instead of providing accurate shots. they were using the rifles like bows and arrows, for spraying bullets over the enemy at long ranges. and the cartridges rifles used were pretty suitable for that. they could reach even farther than 1000 metres.
