Forgotten Weapons

At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You're much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!

I thought we would take some time this morning to fill Moons Out 2026, but the interest was through the roof and we sold out in less than a minute. Thanks to everyone who joined in, and my apologies to the folks who didn't make it. We will probably have a few slots open up before the match, so if you are on the wait list there is a chance of getting in.

For those of you who want a truly perfect semiauto L85, Murdoch & Co has it. I've been talking with Evan for a while as he's been working on this project, and I'm really excited to see it enter its final stages!

Lots of people are asking me about the .30-06 and .30 Carbine Thompsons at RIA right now. I have actually already filmed one of the .30 Carbine models, at the Cody Firearms Museum (see below). I've filmed a slightly different model of the .30-06 one; I would love to film the one they have now; hopefully I'll have a chance to do it with whoever ends up buying it.

This is an outstanding piece on the history of Bosnian AK magazines, both the two-rib type and the single rib/Fleur-de-lis type.

Sako has released a couple videos formally introducing their ARG - the rifle that is being adopted by Finnish and Swedish military forces. There is nothing particularly novel about the guns (they offer it in 5.56 and 7.62, and with either DI or piston operating systems). Instead of questionable flashy features, the design process focussed on the engineering to make the guns reliable in all environments and to develop the production specs to ensure successful mass production. That's both the hard part and also the important part. Unfortunately, I expect they will be backlogged with military orders for quite some time, so I wouldn't anticipate a civilian model any time soon.
