#RoyalNonesuch

After a temporary pause in producing video content, Royal Nonesuch is back. This YouTube channel is known for the variety of homemade gun projects. Not only he is back but also plans to start even more entertaining projects. He also applied for an FFL and SOT which will allow him to expand the range of weapons and mechanisms he can experiment with. Among his first new project is a gun utilizing an advanced primer ignition (API) mechanism with an extended chamber. Let’s see how the host of the channel describes his project.

Well. They are Booby Trap Alarms according to his Youtube video title but you could modify the design slightly and come up with something that undoubtedly violates some law here in the United States. Royal keeps it legit and has designed a trip wire notification device that uses cut down 12 gauge shot shells to let you know if someone has breached whatever perimeter you have established.

Patrick and the TFBTV team covered the Serbu gang at SHOT, but I wanted to stop by and see the GB-22 for myself. As previously explained, the “GB” in GB-22 stands for Gun Buyback – this is Serbu’s attempt to flood useless gun turn-in programs that some cities and towns have spun up in an attempt to reduce crime. As we have seen time and time again, the result is that mostly garbage firearms or rare collectors pieces are turned over, both of which are indiscriminately melted down.

Patrick visits with 50 Cal Val and Royal Nonesuch to talk about the RN-50 rifle, the GB-22 pistol, and a prototype pistol that might be in development. Plans are currently available for the GB-22 pistol for $12 and complete pistols MAY be coming in the future.

The Serbu RN 50 is a budget break action .50bmg rifle originally designed by YouTuber Royal Nonesuch. He collaborated with Serbu and they made the RN50. Pictured above is a shorty version. It is not available on their website but one was made for Royal Nonesuch. It has a 16″ barrel and has a folding stock adapter. It looks very tiny. I kinda want one now.

Improvised and camouflaged firearms can be some of the most interesting weapons around, and the best ones combine inventiveness, creativity, craft work, and a sort of apocalyptic chic together into final products that are compelling far beyond the sum of their parts or their actual capabilities and practicality. Mark Serbu – one of the big names in big guns, and Royal Nonesuch – a YouTube vlogger with a penchant for the improvised and dangerous, joined forces together with Serbu’s daughter Valerie ( 50CalVal), and Mark’s friends Mike and Mike (“Beardo”), to bring to the world the fire extinguisher shotgun. As the video below illustrates, that’s pretty much what it says on the tin:

You either love him or hate him, no matter how you lean; the fact remains. Royal Nonesuch is as much a part of the online shooting community as our own James, Miles, Edward O., myself, and even Youtube giants like IV8888 and Hickok45.

YouTube gun design entrepreneur and kluger Royal Nonesuch is at it again, this time with a bolt-action shotgun. Claimed to be 90% complete, it features parts from a variety of sources. Mr. Nonesuch uses an HK lower receiver and parts group, Saiga magazine, AK-47 under-folder, and an AR-15 stock riser used as a fore-end.
