- The chamber loading system was an early variant of the capping or percussion breech loading guns. The Norwegian and Swedish Kammerlader rifles were ones from the very first models to be accepted by an army. Here is the story of the Swedish Kammerlader.

I find it amazing that this loading mechanism never caught on among other armies outside of Scandanavia. It seems so simple yet effective and seems not to compromise accuracy for rate of fire to any measurable degree.
I know right its way less hassle just gotta count your shots excessive fouling after awhile acts as a barrel obstruction id figure it need a wad cleaning after so many shots but even only adding that its higly effective at throwing lead rapidly compared. be fun to hunt with for sure
The American Army issued M1819 Hall rifle used the same loading system and was converted to cap firing in the 1830’s.
It was a top hammer having originally been a flintlock.
The Hall did not use a camming mechanism to get a better seal. They used thin sheet metal to protect the stock at the front of the chamber. Stupidly enough, the last model (Hall-North) made for the US military was a smooth bore, the earlier versions were rifled. Responsible for an early civil war scandal, they were declared obsolete and sold 5,000 off for $3.50 each, then in the arms panic the US bought them back for $22 each. The .52 caliber barrel was rifled and the chamber was bored out to accept a .58 caliber projectile (yes, chamber only was increased, not bore size), but that work apparently only cost $0.75 per gun.
@@robertlewis8295 The Hall had two slightly angled replaceable recoil lugs that (if properly adjusted) pushed the breech and action together for a metal on metal seal. A couple of centuries wear and tear impede its sealing however in most surviving examples.
The horned helmet design of old must have turned them off from any war equipment designs coming from the region.
I really like how this design actually makes it practical to shoot and reload from the prone.
Not to mention horseback..
probably not harder than other rifles of that era.
@@Bobanbobic Reloading a springfield musket is really hard in prone
@@w0t3rdog This gun is way too fiddly to reload on horseback. There were plenty of similar breech loading weapons made for that reason. This gun is clearly for shooting long ranges quickly and with a good seal.
That has to be the best black powder rifle of its day. Has anyone ever made a reproduction of that one? It would be on my list if it was available. Such an interesting rifle, fast and efficient to load and shoot. Thank you for giving us a closeup look.

Your face when the cap failed - I laughed so much at that! I've been there, m8. Absolutely love your content! Thank you for showing the REAL shooting experience - the way it should be.
I've gone from seeing this channel as source of entertainment, to a valuable resource for preserving the usage of historical firearms (while still being wildly entertaining!). Thank you for all that you do and I can't wait for the next video!
Completely agree, his stuff on the Dreyse and the Lorenz is excellent 👍

I really like this rifle. The loading mechanism is unique and easier compared to a traditional muzzleloading one.
"We love everything made of wood, and metal..."
Amen.
You just made this swede very happy with this! Your rifle is in stunning condition by the way, congratulations on that.
I love all these old guns. Thank you so much for putting videos like these on here.
I enjoyed the demonstration of this firearm as well as the history of its creation. The pictures that you provided to help describe certain aspects were also appreciated.
I absolutely love this channel!! Especially when it comes to how you go about doing your reloads. It really helps me and I'm sure countless others who love reloading. It sets me in the right direction and also how to do it! Especially when it comes to old black powder brass cartridges.
I can imagine you as a magician who shows amazing and incredible things ! As you show us amazing and unique and historical firearms ❤love from India brother..🙏
I wished the Kammerlader style came earlier in the flintlock age. I think it would work really well and better than a lot of other breechloader flintlocks.
Aww.....yes...... 11:29
That looks like one of my expressions when the cap goes snap without the satisfaction of the boom.....😃
Geat video and excellent information
Thanks for a great bit of history and information on this ignition system and on the rifle.The extra powder tightened the group a lot.Thanks for sharing from Australia
I've been waiting for a good video featuring the Kammerlader, thanks!
Great video as always. You make creating the cartridge look easy. It takes skill.
Amazing. I have never seen anything like that in my 50 years as a firearm enthusiast.
Wow, amazing rifle. Great job presenting the history, a mad minute and disassembly.
You bring us the coolest stuff 😎
Amazing, i have never seen anything like this, love the channel
All of your videos are superb as well as extremely interesting.
A gun almost never, ever seen here in the US. It would be something to show up to a black powder military match here with one of those.
I just did the 2022 Cabin Fever challenge using mine. I did not do so well 😜
In addition to BlokeOnTheRange's video on the Kammerlader, there's also Mark Novak's videos on bringing a derelict one back to life. The two videos - iirc it's one for the stock and one for the metal work - amply illustrate the kind of cracking you can find on badly worn examples.
Wonderful. I love seeing the different ways in which the same problems were overcome.
thank you for your great presentation .I love old black powder guns .They have an amazing history
What a amazing rifle and video. Thank you so much. These rifle makes my Gewerh 98 a youth rifle, as your Kammerlader are 66 years older.
Love these videos all ways interesting to learn about the development of different weapons through history 👏
very good video you are to be congratulated for keeping the story alive.
As always an excellent video.Wonder information and demonstration. Thank you
Thank Sir, for your Reviews
Another excellent video revue, your rifle is in pristine condition.
Fabulous rifle. And great video as always!!
Beautiful! It is never too late to learn something new.
My favourite gun channel of CZcams!
Very cool design! Most impressive for that time period. Thanks for sharing.
I'm amazed that such a beautifully ingenious system was not more widely adopted. Way ahead of its time. Lovely rifle.
Wow! What an amazing mechanism. Ive never seen this style before.
Boy, that's really an interesting rifle and breech system! My interests have tended to go earlier and earlier. I haven't reached a matchlock yet, but that rifle could definitely change my interest direction. Thanks for something really new to me.
Another great video. Thanks! 👍🏻👍🏻
The beauty and craftsmanship on that is astonishing
Fantastic video, highly informative as well as intresting !
great video about a great Rifle.
I saw many other channels where they always complained about the gas sealing, and that it was not very well designed.
When I see your shooting, it looks almost perfect 👍👍
Thanks for another guns history lesson, wrapped in good entertainment
I thought that was a repro at first, that gun was insanely well kept for being 180 years old.
Super cool black powder rifle!! I am surprised it was not used all over around the world.. I have been fascinated by percussion weapons for a few years but only now came across this beauty
What an amazing firearm! I Love the art, design and craftsmanship of antique guns and weapons. When you think of the tools and machines used then that required great skill I’m always impressed. Thank You Kindly and keep your powder shooting so we can enjoy and learn more! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
Cool video about cool riffle! Köszönöm!
Wonderful information and presentation.
Great Channel! Tank you!
You showed great poise and hit a good shot while being flanked by an enemy at the end there. Nice job soldier
Very interesting and well made video! Thumbs up!
Great video! I dident know about this intresting rifle, thank you
greetings from Sweden 🇸🇪
Now that is cool! I just noticed that the lever must be on a cam that moves the loaded tube forward in the chamber to provide a better seal, brilliant! Ty C&B!
Kammerlader. 😊
paper cartridges are very elegant, and setting aside one Saturday of the week to fire a weapon like that seems to be very good ❤
Excellent, once again!
i really need one of these in my life! its so cool, in every way!
beautiful rifle. thanks for the video
Oh I see! ...I'm not a shooter so I was curious about that white 'blinker' you were wearing , then I noticed it allowed you to keep both eyes open while firing. You learn something new every day. Wonderful looking rifle, I was trying to work out what Britain was using by comparison in the 1850s [Pattern 1853 Enfield muzzle-loader] and wonder how the Kammerlader compared to the American Hall breech loader? Excellent video (as usual). Thank you.
I have never seen or heard about this method of loading, especially surprised the design/principle already dates back to medieval times!
ANOTHER DAM GOOD VID MAN
That is such a cool loading system.
Indiana Jones: *Screaming in the distance.*
Capandball: *Antique treasures go bang bang.*
Seriously one thinks he is loaded, or Europe is a blackpowder gold mine.
Great video thank you 👍
Beautiful piece by the way. I would be proud to own one.
Lovely looking and accurate gun, quick to load as well.
I am Norwegian and it is cool to see a Norwegian designed rifle, it isn’t often.
This is greatly superior than the Springfields and Enfield's that we fought the American Civil War with.
What a beautiful and interesting design
Thanks man for vid.. so what a heavy barrel.. what the nice gun.. soft voice..👍
Ah, Kammerlader story told in exquisite hunglish, love it! :D
That is just an awesome rifle. Amazing design.
Held that 4th shot to long I reacon, what a cool piece of history how fun, and very little smoke from that powder
That's a cool rifle, I know nothing about black powder guns, my knowledge stops at the start of rimfire, but I'm amazed how clever this is!
Thanks for sharing 👍
Very nice rifle and good shooting
A mechanical wonder so well done! Kind Thanks for sharing this Lovely rifle! DaveyJO in Pennsylvania
Cool video, I've never seen one of those before !
Excellent video about a very interesting rifle.
Pretty neat system!!!
This is probably the first very well suceed attempt of making a more pratical reload system before cartridge implementation. Very nice shape gun. Cheers!
I was worried this wouldn’t come. This is one beautiful rifle and I need one before I die
Funny 5 minutes ago I was content...... now I have a new obsession... thanks a lot 😃.... I love sweden
I would love to get one of these for my collection. I love these sorts strange and different rifles.

I love your content
Beautiful invention
I saw the Norwegians demonstrate their kammerladers years ago, they used the spitzer like the ones for the pillar breech guns
amazing!
The Lyman powder flask came. Pretty nice. Had gun out cleaned sites
First time I see this kind of rifle! A very modern one for mid-nineteenth century.
Amazing historical rifle
Whoa! Cool rifle!
Cool Old Tech!
Beautiful, I was lucky enough to shoot a Norwegian one at a military black powder shoot in Tennessee last year.
Woi amazing!!
Toujours d’aussi belles vidéos ,avec des armes atypiques.la poudre noire n’a pas fini de séduire !!
