Let me guide you through a research project I am deeply involved in about the early matchlock firearms of the first decades of the 16th century and the battle of Mohács in 1526. If you ever wondered what’s inside a 16th century gun barrel, and how the bullets were made, it’s your content. The laboratory of Continental Automotive Hungary Ltd. is providing the laboratory background for the X-Ray, CT and electron-microscope examination of the 16th century artifacts.

Well this is my channel and these are my impressions about shooting old and repro blackpowder and cartridge guns. You will find target shooting, hunting, reloading and military history related videos here starring pre 1945 firearms. Since I was a little child I knew I want to be a history teacher. In fact I graduated as one. Later I studied military sciences on university level, and now I am doing my phd in firearms history while I teach military history at the university. That’s my life, my hobby. I hope you’ll enjoy my videos as much I enjoyed making them. Greetings form Hungary, the land of good wines and beautiful women. Oh yes, and please forgive my Hunglish. 😉
