Our IndieGoGo campaign to raise funds for a new set of video gear has now met its original goal (in just over 2 days!) – so I’m adding in a stretch goal to carry it through the rest of the 30-day time frame. This new additional goal is an Edgertronic professional-grade high speed camera. This would allow us to take a look at what is happening in firearms cycling at 700-2500 frames per second. There are high-speed clips out there of guns, but nothing of the more exotic and interesting guns that we showcase here on Forgotten Weapons. Take a look at the is review of the Edgertronic, and see if you think it would be a worthwhile addition to the Forgotten Weapons video tools:

I’m totally blown away by everyone’s enthusiasm and generosity, and am grateful to all of you!
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!
