GCS Siren video

Here is a video I took of my GCS siren at New Years Eve, shortly before I sold it to a mill in Olympia, Washington. The insides are identical to a Model 2 and it was running on 240 volts. The link is below the photo. My camera was new and I didn't know how to adjust the quality. Also, being midnight, it was very dark. Turn your volume all the way up so that you can also hear a cuckoo clock, two angry chihuahuas, and the by-product of fine German gunsmithing combined with Oregon's liberal firearms laws and a convenient lack of close neighbors.

Good video. I love the fast wind-up.
When you had that picture in your avatar, I had mistaken it for a Model 5.

Nice video.

If I did turn my volume all the way up, the siren would have scared the crap out of me! :D

What kind of gun are you shooting at the end?

It said he was firing a Walther P99.

That was the point. All is quiet at midnight, with the cuckoo clock chiming and the TV on in the background. As a special treat for those viewers, who unlike yourselves don't realize how loud it is when you're 15 feet from a large siren at ground level, I recommended turning up the volume. Yes, I was shooting a Walther P99 9mm, with a convenient 15-round clip (thanks, Pres. Bush!).

Ah yes, I should have expanded your description and seen the answer to my question. I'm always talking crap to people for making that mistake, so everyone gets free passes from me for a while now :D.
