   Gun is derived from the Old English word, "gonne" which means a military/war contraption. Indeed the earliest handheld firearm was the handgonne. Maybe the only safe place word left is "musket"? (-;

   The top wood shown is the bare minimum, to stop burning your fingers. Not enough to prevent mirage from a hot barrel though. But for hunting neither is an issue. Nice SMLE sporter there. Protect...

   The shroud allowed the gun to fire at 10 rounds per second, or 600 rpm. But would it be sufficient to cope with 1200 rpm like on the MG42? Maybe, as the higher rate of fire would have pulled more...

   ChrisW liked post by Cordite On thread : Myth? - shorter barrel = use faster powder?

   The received wisdom I've heard is, the powder that gives top velocity in the long barrel is probably the powder you should use in the short barrel.
