Another Historical Documentation – This Time Springfield Armory
LIke the previously published Remington video, I am always amazed at the industry behind manufacturing firearms, especially pre-CNC. In this installment, Springfield Armory is showcased in true 1950’s video style with all pre-CNC machines.
Those looking for rare weapons will enjoy the first few minutes which showcase some of the banner items from the Springfield Armory Museum.
Enjoy!

You know your getting old when a video called historical documentation is of your childhood. I remember shooting 22's with the Boy Scouts in our school basement like these "O the HORROR", children under 14 years of age. All things considered and the wonderful advances of technology, I preferred living in the past where doors were not locked and as kids we, had the whole town and country side as our play ground without any adult supervision. That was a freedom young people and adults are not likely to see again. Great video, thank's for posting, it brought back a lot of good memories.
