Several of you rightly pointed out I skimmed over the major difference in the Scandinavian Krags last episode: the second locking lug.
For whatever reason that point did not stand out in my source notes and I failed to pull my head up long enough to remember my basics. We're rolling a corrected animation and I'm going to record a video/audio patch.
Unfortunately we have to re-release the episode and lose the metrics so far but unlike little issues this one is pretty core to the design and understanding of the rifle. So don't be surprised when the next notification comes through!
We're still committed to being as correct as possible in our series and consider that trust essential for our continued community support.

Convergent evolution? Or is there any indication that the RSC's system is actually derived from/inspired by the Krag?

2020-10-31 13:17:16 +0000 UTCOutstanding work, especially when you (all) put accuracy over metrics. is one of the many reasons to support the channel. Pony up People !!

2020-10-30 11:22:44 +0000 UTCActually this is pretty spot on.

2020-10-29 21:35:47 +0000 UTCNow that I finally understand how the Krag magazine works, I can't not see the similarities between it and the RSC's foldy-downy clip door/follower thing. Like if you took the RSC mag, rotated it 90 degrees and ditched the clip, you'd have a Krag mag.

2020-10-29 11:31:10 +0000 UTCI do not see YouTube being helpful, but I do wonder if version control is something Utreon is going to implement.

2020-10-29 08:01:02 +0000 UTCI didn't notice but now its all comming back. I watch the US episode piecemeal about every two months. Saw about 30 minutes after the Danish Krag this week. Looking foward to next time. Thanks for the good work.

2020-10-29 07:05:39 +0000 UTCLove the high standards, I give as much as I can because I can't do what you guys do! Thanks for the correction and I'll happily watch again!

2020-10-29 03:14:01 +0000 UTCAs I remembered, it's in the animation and Mae mentions it. Oh, are you talking about the second animation?

2020-10-29 02:34:38 +0000 UTCLooks like I'll be watching a Danish Krag episode again, not even mad 👌

2020-10-29 02:17:17 +0000 UTCI believe I explained the difference in the US Krag episode, in order to describe how it does NOT lock. But I goofed on the actual Dane.

2020-10-29 01:48:54 +0000 UTCThis is what happens when you are overworked and underpaid. It's all good!

2020-10-29 01:35:25 +0000 UTCI recall Othais saying there was a single locking lug and that the bolt handle could function as a secondary lug.
Ron Johnson
2020-10-29 01:24:51 +0000 UTCno, you have to un-like the old one
C&Rsenal
2020-10-29 01:02:32 +0000 UTCI've been busy enough I've not even watched it yet so I'll comment afresh on the new one. Keep up the public high standards for journalism and research! It's always refreshing to hear *I was wrong, here's the correct information" as one working in the science field.
Will Sanders
2020-10-29 00:34:26 +0000 UTCCrazy, I could swear I remember that too!
Xavier Thilking
2020-10-29 00:33:13 +0000 UTCSo what your saying is everyone should remember to like and comment on the new upload?
Primarch359
2020-10-29 00:24:16 +0000 UTCNope, even the animation shows a single lug. I auto-piloted right over that key detail.
C&Rsenal
2020-10-29 00:14:29 +0000 UTCI wait until the weekend to watch these, so no worries.
Eric Elcock
2020-10-29 00:11:57 +0000 UTCIt's fine I'll like and comment on it again to help the algorithm
Casey Muzio
2020-10-29 00:09:10 +0000 UTCThank you for giving us the best information possible. Too bad youtube didn't implement some kind of version control way back when to allow someone to upload corrected videos.
Henry von Tresckow
2020-10-29 00:08:55 +0000 UTCCall me crazy, but I remember you mentioning it several times as a detail, and the bolt serving as a rudimentary backup locking lug.
