These wallguns were made to be integrated in the defense system of forts. They could reach further than any musket while they were also effective agains lighter field fortifications. These were de .50 BMGs of the age. They were called Doppelhacken in Austrian terms. This one served the Fort of Komárom/Komárno, Hungary, today is in the collection of the Danubve Museum of Komárno, Slovakia.
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. 😉
