Small Arms of WWI Primer 074: Russian Mosin-Nagant 1891

Wishlist

All right, we're starting to hit the back wall of the series in the next few months so it's time to reveal where are weaknesses are.
We have plenty to keep us busy for a while, but any of the pieces on the linked page would be a huge help...

Small Arms of WWI Primer 073: US Browning Automatic Rifle 1918

I am very tired.

Also, heads up for gamers: we updated the VOIP from Mumble to Discord.

A few updates

1. We had fun with the PornHub gag but realize it is not a complete solution. I think it just pokes fun at the issue from a number of angles. 

2. We have focused on getting a full Primer series backup to Bitchu...

Back up sites

Hey gang, we have a LOT of conversation going on over at Facebook but the long and short of it is the new YouTube firearms policy doesn't seem to affect us... yet.  There is some language that worries me if, say, a shop loans us a piece and we m...

A Thing of Rare Beauty

Every once in a while I come across a thread online discussing whether or not Mae is attractive.  I know with that sentence alone there will be some reassuring comments, but try to resist them this time because we honestly don't care.  
...

Episode 072: The Dangerous One

Othais and Mae delve into the story of this WWI classic.  Complete with history, function, and live fire demonstration.

C&Rsenal presents its WWI Primer series; covering the firearms of this historic conflict one at a time in ho...

Small Arms of WWI Primer 071: Italian Vetterli-Vitali 1870/87

The exception

I will say, overwhelmingly, everyone was positive and appreciative that we leave politics out.  Some of you, publicly and privately, shared that you're likely not in the same political sphere as I am.  I'm very glad we can share at least on...

Current Events

I'm a bit peeved because, once again, I've had to drop patronage and unsubscribe from several podcasts or video series I watch.  None of them were news/lifestyle/politics etc.  They were all fiction wholly unrelated to current events but th...

Small Arms of WWI Primer 070: Japanese Nambu Type A Modified

They're taking pictures inside my bottom tomorrow, so I guess I'll put this up a bit early.

So hungry...

Othais is a cheater

Also I just realized this looks like 50 yards because it is.   I had already started walking the target back when I thought to film it.  It was back past that saggy steel barrel.

Decisions and Extras

I read every comment. Most of you said to hide the amount.

Some thought it was nice to see.

But a half dozen or so are much smarter than me and realized I could do both. 

So I'm hiding the live total on Patreon and simpl...

Thats a lotta comments

I made it through roughly one quarter but we are hitting the range again for filming today. I will be back this evening for the rest, so keep them coming!

I could use some real opinions

Hey gang, I have a conundrum.   Despite some recent channel growth Patreon has actually been hovering around $6k and repeatedly has risen up to say 6.1, but the payout has never actually crested 5.9.  Each month, just as we hit payout ...

Episode 069: Japanese Type 26

I have to get up early so I guess this goes up early too.

Small Arms of WWI Primer 068: Spanish Ona in British and Italian Service

Order up

Over 2,000 Patrons and this old Exclusive has just 500 views

Just making sure you all get a peek.

A brief test

This took more rounds than I'd like to put through our rarer pieces.  But maybe we can refine the process.

Just a note on my pledges

I've had a few people tell me that they're getting updates on when I support other creators.

I'll try to disable it just because of the hassle of having these unrelated things in your inbox, but I do try and practice what I preach and give a dollar...

Thank you all!

Following the holidays we fell below our previously celebrated $6,000 mark.  I've noticed a big rush of new patrons and I just want to say I appreciate those coming onboard now and especially those who have been supporting this project long term...

We hope this season finds all of you warm, safe, and loved. 

Also Othai...

Small Arms of WWI Primer 066: Portuguese Vergueiro

Full Speed Ahead

Thank you all for riding that Patreon blip out with us. I had a lot of messages on the matter but witheld answering until I had a solution. 

In looking for alternatives I found we have options but all were as bad or worse than the new method. ...

Super Secret Special

I have never been more exhausted in my life.

Goodnight.

The Update

Sorry, Patreon was down last night, couldn't post this.

Trip update and bonus video

I would call our trip a success, but one that came at great expense of time, cashola, and sanity.

Despite my preparations including a full inspection of the Suburban, we managed two breakdowns that put us off the road, one for half a day...
