THE DAY OF THE JACKAL: my remake of the rifle test scene

[@22tanmay]

I have followed the Jackal rifle project by fans for years. Yours seems to be the most authentic working replica so far. Choosing 22 LR makes sense. Congratulations.

[@STEINBVG]

Thanks a lot. I hope you saw the playlist of the build. More details.

[@공릉짜장]

That's really touching. You're amazing! Rifle fixing with rope, and adjustment.. Wow

[@STEINBVG]

Thanks. I just paid the tribute to a great movie.

[@공릉짜장]

​@@STEINBVG Absolutely. it was a great movie

[@STEINBVG]

Yes

[@brendaglasgow969]

Out of curiosity, do you have the schematics for the modified parts for this gun? I’d be interested in re-creating one for myself. Also, where did you get the scope and the mount?

[@STEINBVG]

I have not made schematics. But the details of the build documented in the play list. Read the description there- it references a forum where it was discussed in details. kzbin.info/aero/PL4H-vPItJEe-fU1RsOuuaKBY5p_EsjI7L&si=_EK-J1hwDczqVa2r Scope was a cheap commercial scope from eBay . Its mounting rings were shaved down. The towers removed and replace by a tube that incorporated small adjustment screws like in the movie. The main clamp mount was made from a square tube cut in half.

What rifle did you use for the build It is the best Jackal rifle I've seen And working too Bravo 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 Subscribed👍🏻

[@STEINBVG]

Thanks. The donor rifle is Savage Raskal. See other videos from the playlist.

Where did you get the rifle

[@STEINBVG]

I have built it

[@TheAnimal191]

I havent seen the movie in years, so I dont remember much about the details of the rifle in that scene.I get the impression you did most of the R&D based on your own ideas. Very clever! I'd love to read anything youre willing to share about it. I'm a bit of a gunsmithing enthusiast.

[@STEINBVG]

Thanks. Watch the playlist dedicated to the rifle construction. Also you may want to read the descriptions kzbin.info/aero/PL4H-vPItJEe-fU1RsOuuaKBY5p_EsjI7L&si=IvLaHZbJ8TywSpXz

@@STEINBVG I didnt even look, Im ashamed to admit. Im checkin that out now! Thank you!

[@dark2023-1lovesoni]

You should do a custom Ruger Mini-14 build next like Clooney in "The American". Or Tuco's bizarre mixed parts revolver from "The Good, The Bad, And The Ugly".

[@STEINBVG]

I’ll think about it. I have built a custom movie ar7 rifle. Check out the ar7 playlist.

[@ivan1982ize]

Меня удивило как у Клуни работала автоматика , на мини-14 с дозвуковым патроном в калибре 5.56-45? На АК-74 в калибре 5.45-39 не работает и кучность плохая.

[@rroberts2023]

Watching the original, I never believed from an engineering background that such a rifle was possible to construct for real. I always thought it was a prop for movie just like the 3D printed gun in the movie In the line of fire with Clint Eastwood. As for the 2024 series its ok watch.

[@STEINBVG]

The rifle in the movie was real. There were 2 props made. The mechanics looks authentic, real as I can judge with my experience in gun making.

[@martkbanjoboy8853]

I thought it was a .22 Hornet in the book. Excellent research, Herr Doktor! 😃

[@STEINBVG]

Looked more like 22 magnum. Straight , not necked shell. But also could have been some older 25 rim caliber. I used a cheep 22 LR donor rifle.

[@martkbanjoboy8853]

​​​@@STEINBVGArtistic license. A .22 Magnum would be more up to the task but what about the sonic crack? A .25 rim fire, out of the box thinking there. This would mean .25 Stevens Long I guess. In 1964 it would have been more available, today it is unobtainium.

[@STEINBVG]

@@martkbanjoboy8853 yes, sonic crack would be an issue. But again it,s a movie.

[@perpinchio]

I remember that at least in the book the ammo was not ultrasonic, due to the sonic crack issue.

[@STEINBVG]

@perpinchio yes

Привет Виталик! Ты что это, в выживальщики подался что ли?) Шутка. Ну прицел конечно монстр) Был у нас в продаже Таско, вырви глаз. Ничего в него не видно. А так ничего, палка стреляет. Трубу держать не удобно. Надо рукоятку спереди, хоть небольшую.

[@STEINBVG]

Это просто копия ружья из фильма . Разбирается и прячется в костыль. Компромисс между формой, функцией и удобством

[@ivan1982ize]

По фильму, если бы у Шакала был магазин на несколько патронов на винтовке, то ему удалось бы скрыться, убив второго копа.

[@STEINBVG]

@@ivan1982ize книга хорошо обьясняет почему для проекта использовалась винтовка донор с однозарядной механикой- тонкая чтоб поместиться в костыль. У меня самая толстая часть- скоп. Даже переделанный с устаненными башнями настройки

[@ivan1982ize]

@@STEINBVG Спасибо за пояснение. Книгу читал, но не помню подробности.

[@STEINBVG]

Из книги:'The main limitation is of size, not in length but in the physical bulk of the working parts. The chamber and breech must be no bulkier than that …' He held up his right hand, the tip of the middle finger touching the end of the thumb in the form of a letter O less than two and a half inches in diameter. 'it cannot be a repeater, since a gas chamber would be larger than that, and nor can it have a bulky spring mechanism for the same reason,' said the Englishman. 'It seems to me it must be a bolt action rifle.' ******************** 'it cannot have a bolt with a handle that sticks out sideways like the Mauser 7.92 or the Lee Enfield .303. The bolt must slide straight back towards the shoulder, gripped between forefinger and thumb for the fitting of the bullet into the breech. Also there must be no trigger guard and the trigger itself must be detachable so that it can be fitted just before firing.' ************ ' it will be necessary to take an existing rifle purchasable in a shop and make modifications. ****************** ' The gun must also be light in weight. It need not be of heavy calibre, the bullet will do the work. It must have a short barrel, probably not longer than twelve inches …

@@STEINBVG Прикольное описание. Патрон 22 ЛР на 20 см. стволе выдаёт 90% скорости, а на 41 см. 100% скорости. Ствол 30см. на мелкашке очень правильное решение. Можно делать мелкашку без каких либо запираний. Затвор 300 гр. и возвратная пружина , где то на 5-6 кг. При выстреле затвор не откатывается ни на миллиметр. После выстрела затвор просто дергается в ручную назад и отпускается. Просто , надежно и быстро. Ни понимаю зачем на 22ЛР замораживаются с болтовым запиранием.

[@STEINBVG]

Все дело в диаметре. Запирающий затвор может быть толщиной с мизинец, а соответственно и тонкий ресивер- для того чтоб упаковать это в правдоподобный костыль. Посему только bolt action. Точка. Многозарядность тоже исключена - тоже из-за необходимой худизны винтовки. А шпингалетное запирание просто.

[@isserfiq]

Have not watched the movie. But the stock on that thing looks very awkward and impossible to get a good cheek weld on. A wire profile stock like the Quakenbush or Garcia-Bronco would at least be useful. But I suppose that's Hollywood for ya.

[@STEINBVG]

It is as in the movie . Nor more nor less. It is a sacrifice or compromise of convenience for the sake of secrecy , stealth and still retention of adequate function. It is actually comfortable to shoot.

[@craiglancastermarr4016]

In the movie the rifle breaks down and is hidden in a crutch. The stock is part of this disguised weapon. It is an excellent replica imho. If you haven't seen the movie do check it out.
