  1. Everything Ian has fun with is meme material

  2. Oh no, is this the one where I have to watch it like a hawk for when Othias bothers you off camera?

  3. We'll hope Ian is perpetually "on the case", since Holmes's other vices were quite destructive.

  4.  @surplusdivision2461  heck, most of the smgs are specifically designed to cost as little as possible

  5. rolf ski But demonstrate that a "stab proof" vest isn't and...

  6. Verbatim So?

  7. thgreatandini oh hush

  8. another thread seems to have worked out that they meant opening the cylinder/ removing the magazine. The 1907 had a heel release, not a button

  9. Some, some, of the single shot to bolt action conversions were worth it

  10. david Kealey Some say he is still looking for the ruler to this day

  11. Michael Berthelsen A lot of people forget how bad black powder is.

  12. Deep South because it fell directly from the cow's tuchas

  13. It was odd enough when Lindy and Skall crossed over

  14. jakekillify Simple answer to the original question: Humans are fragile, animals less so. Slightly less simple: Rounds perfectly suited to maybe/maybe not killing a human are going to leave many game animals (including deer) in pain for far longer than strictly necessary. A single 5.56 NATO round likely will not even kill a deer. Many states have outlawed the use of smaller, weaker rounds for certain game due to this fact. I actually have 30-06 ammo specifically stating that it is not for large game.

  15. I? Don't? Know?
    17
  16. Many of them have
    16
  17. If he can find one I bet he'd love to do a video on it
    16
  18. Only even less usable
    16
  19. He said he would, patience.

  20. I just wear inner ear plugs anyways
    15
  21. I ain't gonna pay for it though, not at 12k
    14
  22. Yeah Ian is mysterious
    14
  23. Same

  24. Ian, why is this an ad?
    14
  25. Hopefully people see this. The two handed comment stemmed from two points: 1 putting a revolver under a leg 2 the heel release and racking the slide
    14
  26. I'm actually glad it didn't work because how in the world was Ian going to source that ammo?

  27.  @missfire9480  The one thing the Brits have right about guns is that suppressors are basically just a check box on their forms.

  28.  @LOUDcarBOMB  And not have to self flagellate every night in penance.

  29. Aaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh I actually reference MGS3
    12
  30. I mean the PM was available commercially
    12
  31. A Very Disappointed Red Engineer not terribly challenging when all you need is the exterior
    12
  32. Halinspark Because its job was "Shoot once. If you hit, grab enemy's gun. If you miss, run, if you haven't been shot yet."

  33. Doug Bolster "it's a Jennings!"
    12
  34. I'm sorry, it's a nervous tick. *not have
    12
  35.  @1r0zz  Nah, we'd just mostly just ignore it like most government spending.
    12
  36. Anthony Williams He did say it may have had more to do with the ammunition having a hard primer
    11
  37. I mean, you don't have to... If you don't want to
    11
  38. Ian letting his hair down.

  39. Magazines are not actually all that related to the action, as far as reliability is concerned. If a magazine fails but the action is perfect? It's still a failure, but not of the action. This is why internal magazines were so common for so long. It's cheaper to make one good magazine and a whole bunch of good enough stripper clips than a whole bunch of good magazines.

  40. Ola Justin because the deafening noise of the gun wasn't enough
    11
  41.  @snakeeyes941  I assume it's still at least an arm Yup, $1099 list price

  42. Paul Shayter I wasn't trying to correct your story, I was telling a different one.
    11
  43. AHHHHHHH THE COLORS AND SHAPES!!!
    11
  44. Stefan B Mostly ergonomics. Pistol grip is more comfortable than a "rifle" grip. A "barrel shroud" (handguard) keeps you from burning yourself on the hot barrel. A couple of things might have actual battlefield effect but don't actually make the rifle fire more powerful rounds or anything like that. The flash hider is as much for your eyes as the enemy's.

  45. I forgot I was dealing with a community entirely made up of pedants.

  46. "oh it's the United States, let's just go buy some"
    10
  47. Yeah, the shotguns are more an InRange project I feel.

  48. For sure
