Wouldn't mind picking up an actual Martini-Henry for my collection. Only real issue is .577-450 is a royal pain in the ass to find, and even reloading brass is difficult to find. They were finding Martini-Henrys in Taliban arms caches in Afghanistan a few years ago. The only reason they'd stopped using them was because the supply of .577 had just dried up. Also, .577 sounds like a fucking huge round to me. Probably because the Martini-Henry is halfway between a musket and a rifle. You'll love this B

You'll love this B This video reminds me of two things I'm disappointed about in Battlefield 1. Firstly, the absence of any kilts to wear into battle, and secondly the inability to make you character have a smashing moustache.

Yeah .577-450 is a pretty big round lol There's a lot of Martini-Henrys and Ganhedra rifles floating around in the states these last couple of years that got imported out of Nepal. Some are in pretty bad shape, but a lot o them are actually pretty nice.

Anyway, I'm currently running the Scout class with the SMLE Mk. III with iron sights and a bayonet, and the Mle. 1903 pistol. Also, turns out the correct way to flush a guy out when you've run out of grenades is with a flare pistol: xboxclips.com/Sqn%20Ldr%20B/1c9f2389-a853-4124-8b20-26d413e85974/embedThe screaming is a bit harrowing, but it was pretty funny.

Also I really like that grenades are somehow more relevant in Battlefield 1 as opposed to other games. In BF4 it just felt like you threw a grenade and it hardly ever did anything. Somehow it seems in BF1 grenades are actually useful to have.

I haven't been able to do that yet (I know. I'm so bad! ), but do the grenades "turn" on people if you kill the guy before he throws it?

All I know is I kept running forward and got toasted by the guys incendiary grenade after I killed him as I assumed it was like all previous versions of battlefield and they wouldnt go off unless thrown before death.
