Kind of a stupid question, but is this a 4/4 or 6/4 Nirschl? (Looks like a 4/4 to me, but I could be wrong)

Looks more along the lines of a 5/4 Nirschl a la Bohm & Meinl/Marzan

As the happy owner of one of these "largish" 4/4 Nirschl CC's (although I'd be very happy to join with Josh in the 6/4 Nirschl owner club), the horn in the video is what Walter Nirschl labels as his 4/4 CC.

Tasty eh? Do you prefer the leg, wing or breast?
