Yes, mother didn't like the gun ( 11:54 ) but it didn't matter because good 'ol dad was the boss. Now, mom runs the house and the country, so guns are deemed bad. Dad walks around with the baby strapped to his chest in a baby harness type device, and he carries a man purse.
Great document. They knew back then that gun control would not keep guns out of the hands of criminals but it would instead disarm the law abiding. Back then getting a gun was so easy. You could buy a gun at a hardware store, through mail order, or at a gas station with no license, no registration, no background check, and no waiting periods and the crime rate was low with zero school shootings. I wish it was like this today.
You are pretty much dumb to "wish it was like this today". You blind? Stupid? In denial? The united states has suffered MASSIVELY because of the lack of gun control. Wake up!
This is a great film. I doubt the military would be allowed to make a film like this today. Everyone should see this film. I remember my first BB gun (Daisy Model 105 "Pal" lever action) at age 9. The manual had a pretty good primer on safety and marksmanship, which i read many times. Things were different then. Society and especially our entertainment media tends to trivialize violence. The analogy with driving in the film is a good one. The object doesn't need burdensome regulation, but the behavior with the object might.
The control freak should have to watch this video continuously, for hours, and be reminded that private gun ownership was once championed by our gov't., as well as many citizens. An armed population was regarded by the gov't as an additional deterent to possible attack from an outside enemy, not as a check to gov't. power (as the gov't probably sees private gun ownership today). Hitler apparently did not allow private ownership of guns. If this is true, it is all to obvious why.
Hitler didn't allow private gun ownership! From a D-Day broadcast of how Hitler took over Germany- First take over the media then take over the schools lastly take away the guns. See a pattern?
You are COMPLETELY incorrect in your thought that the right to bear arms was protection from foreign countries. It was to protect the government from coups from militant groups that wanted to overthrow the government. Check out your Constitution and its reasons for existing because you dont know! Dumbass.
I attended the NRA national matches in the 1980's once at Camp Perry, OH. Camp Perry now an Ohio National Guard base, during WWII, was used as a POW camp where German and Italian POWs were detained. The huts where the POWs stayed were still standing in the 80's and were used by the participants of the national matches. They installed a steel box in each hut that the participants could lock up their firearms that they were using in the matches. Recently, the national matches were moved from Camp Perry to Camp Atterbury, IN. Camp Atterbury is an Indiana National Guard base and has also been used by the Army as a training base for the Iraq and Afghanistan engagements.
The reason we have never had to forcefully overthrow the US Government, is because we have always had the ability to forcefully overthrow the US Government.
I was out practicing with a couple of mine just this morning. The NRA turned into Negotiating Rights Away. I only belong anymore because it's required by my Gun Club/Range(s).
"Shoot...and Scoot!" I love it! On Saturday mornings when I was little the 'Big Picture' was on right after the television station signed on for the day, and right before the cartoons started. I may have even seen this one, and it may have been what kindled my life long passion for shooting. :-)
At about 6:15 into the film, you see citizens giving odd looks at the flintlock. These days, if that same thing were to be done...I can make a sure bet, there would be a hell of a lot more reaction than just some staring. People scrambling for their cell phones in hysterical panic, crying for the police to come and save them from the big bad gun toting dude! oh their crys of panic..."there's a gun! run for your lives!" Americans deserve the country they live in now.
Remember fellas, legally a 6 pounder howitzer is not a firearm, a brown bess is not a firearm, a springfield caplock is mot a firearm, and a gatling gun is not a firearm
The M14 is heavy. I own an M1a Which is the civilian version. It is a 7.56 caliber so you can carry less of it than lighter smaller ammo. That’s one reason why the military switched to the 5.56mm and the m16 which has less range. Now the military has learned that it needs a larger more capable round and is looking at 6mm variants.
“The M-14 is….light weight”….Perhaps in comparison with holding a M249 Machine gun it’s light weight. Lol. Still LOVE this video though. Everything it says about gun rights still hold up in 2021.
@1matsg It would be nice but first we would have to put in practice of good Christian and social behaviors, and set up a government that’s not run by corporations to their bidding. The big corporate controlled America is also holding us back from free electricity, clean renewable energy, and Better health, stronger borders as well. Go more on a mentality of isolation not policing the world.
I got my first gun at age 7, it was a Daisy Red Rider BB gun. My father, a Vietnam veteran, taught me the gun safety rules before I got to shoot it. I got my first shotgun at 11, a .410 single shot, my father continued to educate me on how to use the shotgun for hunting. He always stressed safe handling and shooting procedures with me and my younger brother. I was allowed to go hunting by myself at age 11 as long as my homework was done. Times sure have changed.
미군 손자들에게. 할아버지가. 실제 대회중 이상한 내용이 떠올라 말하지만. 전쟁이 발전과 평화를 가져온다는 내용이 있더군. 아니요 절대 그렇지 않고 마음 속에 바른 마음이 더 중요합니다. 전쟁은 갈등과 패망을 가져옵니다. 당연 준비자세 충분한 군 병력 장비는 매력적인 적을 억제 또는 평화의 지킴이는 확실하나. 발전을 가져온다. 아니지요. 바뀌어야 하는 말이에요.
While this video does touch on gun laws, hinting at the debate that we currently have, it obviously focuses on national security--the basis upon which the 2nd Amendment was written. Both Right and Left have forgotten this reality. The 2nd Amendment was written as it was for a point--to ensure there would always be a pool of competent marksmen to enable our defenses. I'm always suspect of the Left on defense, unfortunately. But I'm also suspect of the modern Right whenever it comes to the common good--I think of that spoiled brat of a Senator Rand Paul . . . he talks about "liberty" incessantly but what is he personally willing to do on liberty's behalf? Is he willing to give his marksmanship skills over to the country? In other words, put on the uniform and fight if necessary? Is he willing to offer up his son for that? We forget the other half of the 2nd and pretend that we're just supposed to collect military-grade weapons for the hell of it. No, friends, there is a clear purpose for which we are to enjoy our 2nd Amendment freedoms.
The Second Amendment was written to ensure the people's right to defend themselves and to throw off tyranny would never be infringed. That includes the right, which Lincoln denied the people of the South, to alter or abolish a government they believe is destructive of their rights. In other words, becomes a tyrannical Police State passing laws it has zero lawful Subject Matter over and so forth.

The myth that the Kentucky rifle led to American independence rather than French economic and military support forcing the British to come to terms. It's amazing how many Americans don't understand their own history.

이런 마음은 좋은 것인데요.
The reason we have never had to forcefully overthrow the US Government, is because we have always had the ability to forcefully overthrow the US Government.
Also, they mentioned the show "The Rifleman" and actor Audey Murphy. So, yes, it was late 50's
Its 1961-62....date is right on NRA badge...!!!
I was out practicing with a couple of mine just this morning. The NRA turned into Negotiating Rights Away. I only belong anymore because it's required by my Gun Club/Range(s).
Find a new gun range. One that doesn't support organizations like the NRA that piss our rights away.
@@RockandrollNegro Much easier said than done.
give it time, in california they will have to start using kentucky rifles again.
In an organized militia!

Should we have stuck with the m14 as a main infantry rifle?
no, its more of a marksman rifle, or for seals with a short barrel
The M14 is heavy. I own an M1a

amen
1917... Springfield??? That's a US Model 1917 ..... can't believe they made such a mistake....
Probably between 1955-58, considering the M14 was adopted in 59 and they had footage of Korean War, 50-52
So desolate that I don't know that era...was to young!but now, would like to know that again!God bless America and the 2nd amendment ✌️
Excellent
I'm from Brazil, where weapons are kind of illegal to normal people, so i agree with you.
I understand that recently, Brazil has made it easier for civilian to keep and bear arms.

karrmov, switch your meds. And take a physics class.
my first gun was 8mm mauser
when the USA WAS A TRULY A GREAT NATION
Key Statement at 5:20. It shows that unlike how its seen as a big bucks no good lobby today, back then Americans respected the NRA.
I got my first gun at age 7, it was a Daisy Red Rider BB gun. My father, a Vietnam veteran, taught me the gun safety rules before I got to shoot it.

I never picked up a weapon again after Nam , where I took an innocent life in an unjust war. Guns kill!, people.
Big bad men destroying nature and animal life in the name of sport. Shame on your fat ugly asses!
Someone show this to the dems. And biden
They would put you in jail if you carried to the capital now. Lol

WRONG ADAM. THE 2ND WAS WRITTEN SO THAT WE COULD OVERTHROW THE GOV'T JUST LIKE THE FOUNDING FATHERS HAD TO DO.
Where can I get a range case like the one at 9:48?
1:24 That's an M-14. WTF!!! When did this film come out?
I'm guessing late 50's because the M14 is described as new and scheduled to become the standard rifle.
Amen Dude!
When was this made and/or aired?
Before the NRA lost their way.
Swede has axe.
Take that to a gunfight and tell me how it works out for you.
Now they are cucked
I know most people here won't know, but when was this specific video of the Big Picture made?
There is a NRA patch dated 1961 in the film.
This was in a more responsible time. I have guns, but Many have them that are irresponsible idiots
my first gun was a 303 lol no 22 for me
Sending this to an old friend who totally agrees with the concept. :>)
