Tales of the gun

[daytodaze]

Hey guys. I recently rediscovered this show because somebody has been uploading full episodes to YouTube. I was the kind of kid who didn't see much use for cartoons and watched the history channel during my daily TV time. I forgot how awesome it was! Anyway, here's the episode about autoloaders. Hope you enjoy!

I was that kid too. I still watch those episodes, though I will say at some point I will need some new material...

I also like History's "Lock n Load". R. Lee Ermy can be a bit much, but hey, he gets to shoot all kinds of guns I can only dream of.

My father won the design contract for the m107 self propelled gun in a single source bid responding to an RFQ from Detroit Arsenal.
I was watching Tales of the Gun and one of those M107s roared past in old Vietnam war footage.
Just a few seconds.

I like the AK and Isreali weapons episodes

If it's the series I'm thinking of then the episode on Japanese small arms of WWII is really first rate; definitely worth viewing. I like this episode because they do a great job of live firing just about every Japanese gun that was used during the war, including most of the full auto weapons.

Being from Ogden Utah originally and having toured the John M. Browning Museum there I get chills watching the "Browning" episode.

Love that show and I never saw any episodes on TV...didn't get "into" firearms until after the series was over so I was happy to find them on Youtube.
