The groundbreaking Belton flintlock repeater, with firearms & weaponry expert Jonathan Ferguson

This pair of pioneering flintlock muskets are like none we've shown on this series before. They represent an 18th century attempt to create a genuine repeater weapon. Not only were these weapons actually purchased in not insignificant numbers by one of history's most controversial organisations, their story is also associated with some of the most recognisable names in US history. This really isn't an episode to be missed. https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU Introduction https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU Replacement chamber https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU Terminology & history https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU 1784 Repeating flintlock https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU Firing process https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU 1786 Repeating flintlock https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU Portfire mechanism https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU Firing process https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU Firearm history https://www.seevid.ir/fa/w/E2kIPmuXMWU Outro Find out more about these objects here: https://collections.royalarmouries.org/object/rac-object-9023.html https://collections.royalarmouries.org/object/rac-object-423.html Join us and many more firearms YouTubers at the History of Weapons & War channel: https://www.weaponsandwar.tv/browse Subscribe to our channel for more videos about arms and armour Help us bring history to life by supporting us here: https://royalarmouries.org/support-us/donations/ Sign up to our museum membership scheme here: https://royalarmouries.org/support-us/membership/ ⚔Website: https://royalarmouries.org/home ⚔Blog: https://royalarmouries.org/stories/ ⚔Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/RoyalArmouriesMuseum/ ⚔Twitter: https://twitter.com/Royal_Armouries ⚔ Instagram: http://instagram.com/royalarmouriesmuseum We are the Royal Armouries, the United Kingdom's national collection of arms and armour.
