When I arrived at DriveTanks.com down in Texas, I was happily surprised to find my old acquaintance Glenn Fleming working there as lead gunsmith. Glenn and I first met on the set of a certain TV show many years back, and he is a great guy – in marked distinction from the rest of the show’s cast. Anyway, Glenn left the show shortly after my appearance (coincidence?) and has been working as a gunsmith since. For a while he ran a Youtube channel call the Gunner’s Vault (https://www.youtube.com/user/ThegunnersVault/).
Anyway, Glenn is now the head gunsmith for DriveTanks, doing fun and interesting things with machine guns and artillery, like rebuilding a 14.5mm KPV from a parts kit. He took a few minutes to chat with me about some aspects of shooting and working with tanks and artillery…

At Forgotten Weapons I think the most interesting guns out there are the most obscure ones. I try to search out experimental and prototype weapons and show you how they work, in addition to more conventional guns that you may not have heard of before. You’re much more likely to find a video on the Cei Rigotti or Webley-Fosbery here than an AR or Glock. So, do you want to learn about something new today? Then stick around!
