  1. Ramzan Kadyrov did it first.🙄

  2. It's an AK, so...yeah. How to improve it? Ukraine's new rifle is a clone of the M4 chambered in 5.45x39 but can easily be swapped to 5.56 NATO if they so desire. Ukraine is winning because...better rifle. I heard some Ukrainian auto mechanics put together a functioning AK-50 in about 2 hours. 😜

  3. It's NOT legislation. It's a regulation. If it was legislation it would be called a "statute", not a "rule".

  4. We also need to support a candidate for President in 2024 that DOES NOT have a record of banning bumpstocks and supporting Red Flag laws. We need to "primary them out" also. Just sayin'. You won't have to worry about Kamala Harris breaking a tie in the Senate on the pistol brace bill. Before the bill can even be debated in the Senate, it needs to get 60 votes to advance to a floor debate and vote. If, by some miracle, it passed the Senate, Biden would veto it and there is no way there is a 2/3 majority in either chamber to override. Most likely, it will be assigned to the Judiciary Committee where the chairman, Senator Durbin (D-IL) will throw it in a black hole. Gunowners need to remember that ANY federal firearms legislation, good or bad, for the next two years has -0- chance of passing. The current makeup of Congress is a slam dunk gridlock for ANY firearms legislation. This is why Biden is using Executive Orders instead of legislation. ANY AND ALL such legislation, good or bad, is political theater. We also need to remember that it is VERY EASY for politicians to support a bill they KNOW has -0- chance of passing.

  5. I read the Constitution. Again. Even the 5th Amendment. Which says: "...nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law;" Convicted pedophiles have had their liberties removed by due process and DO NOT get to own firearms. FPC needs to stay in the courtroom and OFF Twitter.

  6. 11:32 That's almost an AK-50. What's taking you so long? 13:54 It's actually (dimensionally) a rimless .50-70. America's FIRST official military cartridge from 1866-1873. It was used in converted Springfield muzzle loading rifled-muskets.

  7. T-34/85. Didn't come into play until early 1944. It was not present at the biggest tank battle of the eastern front, Kursk, in July/August, 1943. You should make a trip to the former Soviet Union. I lived and worked there for 7 years. I can highly recommend any of the museums or memorials. Hard to say which is best. My favorites are the History Museum in Kharkiv, Babi Yar Ravine in Kiev (Kyiv) and the "Memorial of Glory" in Kharkiv. Kharkiv was fought over three times and finally liberated as a by-product of the battle of Kursk on August 23, 1943. More than 274,000 people, just in that city, were killed. More than ALL Americans killed in the European theater...in ONE city! The Memorial is a beautiful park, which is also a mass grave. Very sobering. Lots of T34/76s and T34/85s parked all over. I tell my Ukrainian wife that I don't think they scrapped ANY of their tanks, they just parked them all around the cities as monuments. The T34/85 was in use until the 1960s in many countries. FYI...Cyrillic is easy to learn. I think it took me about 2 hours of my first day of Russian class to nail it down. Get a chart or some flash cards. You'll know it in no time.

  8. You should know better, Brandon. The B&T Station Six is NOT a 'single shot'. The give-away is the MAGAZINE! 🤦🏼‍♂ It is a bolt action, manually operated REPEATING pistol. Sometimes I have to remind you kids that there are more types of guns in the world than 'single shots' and 'semi-automatics'. OK...carry on.

  9. NO! A subpoena is NOT a warrant. Subpoenas are NOT issued by judges, they are issued on the sole authority of an officer of the court. An attorney. Any and all subpoenas CAN BE challenged in court. I would expect a safe manufacturer to give the FBI a big 🖕and CHALLENEGE any subpoena even to the level of the Supreme Court. As you correctly stated, Brandon, the warrant is between the individual and the FBI. The warrant allows the FBI to search the safe, NO ONE else is required to give the FBI anything to affect that search UNLESS ordered by a court, and a subpoena is NOT a court order. If the owner of the safe does not comply with opening the safe, then the owner can be charged with obstruction. But NO ONE not named in the WARRANT needs to comply or cooperate with the FBI. At this point, 🖕Liberty Safe!

  11. I'm a boomer. "Over 60". So, yeah, I own 5 Model 1911s. All .45s, of course. The Hi-Power is for 9mm. I own 2 of those. My regular carry gun is a S&W Model 3914 DAO 9mm. 8 +1. My 2nd and 3rd choices are a S&W M642 .38 +P and a S&W M&P .380 Bodyguard. "Stopping power" as it applies to personal defense handguns means the ability to STOP someone from choosing YOU as their victim. If you are attacked and you shoot your assailant with a handgun (any handgun) and the assailant runs away...YOU WIN! Did you "stop" the assault? YES! But the age old .XX v .XX must go on. The only real questions is: "When you need a gun, are you going to bring your own or call 911 to have someone else bring one?"

  12. I think what you meant to say was: "PO8 Luger: Used by the losers in 2 World Wars." After losing the first world war, the Germans adopted a new pistol but the same cartridge that lost the last war. Did they really think a different pistol to shoot the same cartridge would help? In fact, no cartridge has been used in such quantity with such reliably unimpressive results as the 9mm Luger (parabellum, 9x19)

  13. I have been saying this in the comments for years. ATF is a SYMPTOM, they are not the DISEASE. Every time I do, I am greeted with replies that I am a "traitor", "shill", "RINO" (and those are the NICE names I am called) It's even worse that you say, Brandon. Those 'other agencies', despite being bigger than the ATF, would say they need MORE personnel and $$$ to enforce the nations federal gun laws. (the Treasury Dept. did it before the ATF existed) Basically, the name on the building would change and the employees would all still work for the government doing the same thing in a new 'department'. We need to repeal or strike down in court, the NFA, GCA and Brady Act.

  14. 4:03 Are the magazines 'drop free'?...oh...yes. Is it 'drop safe'? I'm asking for a friend who has a SIG P320.

  15. In order to avert the complete meltdown over Biden's most recent failure, The White House says they are "looking for" a position for Chipman that does not require Senate confirmation. Maybe he can be the White House dog walker. I heard Chipman knows how to handle dogs.

  18. Do I like this? NO!!! This is clearly a backdoor attempt to give it to gun owners in the "back door". It is a frustrated attempt by a failed regime to get what they can't get through legislation and/or litigation. Nothing will change in a year. That said: When a void exists in the supply of something there is a demand for, someone will fill that void. I expect other importers will soon grab their piece of the of the 22% of the pie lost by the Russians and even some of this will be made up for by domestic suppliers. For all those that ask "Why don't ammo factories just build more capacity?" THIS is why. When the shortage is over, we will all go back to buying cheap imported ammo and they will be left with unused factories. Maybe this will encourage further domestic ammo development. Other importers will jump in to fill the void of Russian ammo, even before it is all eliminated. They want to get their piece of that pie. Remember, that when Colt cut back, and even eliminated, AR15 sales to civilians, dozens, if not hundreds, of suppliers filled the void with the rifles we use today. Prices on the AR platform rifles dropped and supply increased. As long as we have capitalism (another topic for another day) there WILL be market solutions to supply problems

  19. The Ukrainians can build an AK 50 in a muffler shop. 🤔 They'll be disappointed using a shotgun against drones unless the drone is within 50 yards. Maximum. 7:06 Ukraine uses the same "Cross" on many of their vehicles as the Germans do. Sometimes it is the "open" cross as used in Germany and other times it is just a simple white cross. 4 Maxims is what happens when the Russians feed their soldiers to you in waves to be slaughtered. More fertilizer!

  21.  @itztimmy9900  No. But, this will not be presented to them in court. Were I on the jury and anyone mentioned that they had watched something about the trial on TV or the internet. I would call for the Judge to excuse that juror for violating instructions. That is WHY you have 12 jurors and 6 alternates.

  24. 0:28 But idiots still suggest Ukraine should "negotiate" with Putin. 🤣 5:11 Speaking of Putin ...and the Taliban...The Taliban was in Moscow today meeting with Putin. Probably negotiating the sale of US weapons left in Afghanistan.

  25. FWIW High Standard made some good shotguns. This is not one of them. I was a police officer for 36 years, retired in 2009. Most of our vehicles were equipped with Remington 870 or Ithaca Model 37 police shotguns with 18" or 20" barrels. The Ithaca was, by far, the better of the two. By the early 80s, the department had stopped buying the Ithacas and had gone to the Remington exclusively (for cost reasons). But there were hundreds and hundreds of the Ithacas still in use. In the early 80s I bought one of the Ithacas being "retired" and it has lived under my bed as my primary home defense gun ever since. 20" barrel, 8 shot magazine, 2-3/4" chamber and bead sight. It does not have a ventilated handguard. Works perfectly and is slick and fast! Some of the newer autoloaders, the Beretta 1300 and Beretta 1201 may be the modern equivalent.

  30. BTW, Lloyd Bentsen was a Texan, a Democrat, and a conservative one for the time. He defeated Yarborough for the Senate seat. Yarborough was a liberal Democrat. (at the time Texas was a 100% Democrat state and strictly banned the carrying of handguns, there was no LTC) Bentsen won his Senate seat in 1970 because he opposed the Vietnam war AND the Voting Rights Act, which Yarborough had supported. In a strange coincidence, Bentsen was able to run for both the VP and reelection in the Senate in 1988. Texas had changed the law allowing that, but Bentsen was "grandfathered" as he had been elected before the law change. He lost as Dukakis' VP but won reelection to his Senate seat. Clinton chose him as Treasury Secretary in 1993. In case you think "banning the ATF" would eliminate gun control, Lloyd Bentsen was Secretary of the Treasury when this shotgun was reclassified as a destructive device. At the time, the Treasury Dept./ATF controlled such things. Now it's the DOJ/ATF. If the ATF is "banned", the name will change on the building and not much else. The problem is the LAWS, not the agencies. The agencies are a symptom. BTW, any President since 1993 could have reversed the rule making this shotgun a "destructive device" by Executive order.

  31. I thought buttf*cking is where lawyers came from. We own 46% of the world's guns? How do we get the remaining 54%? If we're no match for nukes and F-15s, why would the government want to ban guns?

  33. Well...in theory EVERY trigger stops EVERY gun from firing.

  34. The Taurus Spectrum was so colorful smooth and "snag free" they decided to market it to women and changed the name to "Speculum" as a subtle hint as to where they could holster it. If case you wonder why you never see them

  35. The NFA is an assault on the 2A. It's a disease. Pistol braces are just a symptom. The makers of pistol braces don't want to overturn the NFA. Who would buy this trash if we could attach a stock? We need to challenge the NFA and stop using our resources (translation: $$$) to defend corporate profits of companies that have no interest in out RIGHTS. I don't want a "right" to a pistol brace, I want my 2A RIGHTS!

  36. Lewis MG gas system + MG42 feed system = M60 Well...the M14 was intended to replace the BAR. AND the M1 rifle AND the M1 carbine AND the m3 submachinegun. The BAR was more of a "Squad Automatic Weapon" than a "light machinegun". The later BARs tried to fill that role with a bipod and replaceable barrels. The M60 was intended to replace the M1919 Browning .30 machinegun. (an actual light machinegun of WW2) The M60 was one of the new type of "General Purpose" machineguns...copying the uses of the MG42. The FN MAG came around about the same time and eventually replaced the M60 in the US military as the M240. The FN MAG/M240 is basically (internally) a Browning Automatic Rifle, turned upside down and equipped with belt feed.

  38. Late to the game again, Brandon. A dozen or so other channels have done this already...just as a dozen or so other channels fired a .50 in a 12 ga. shotgun before you did. At this rate, you will be the 23rd person to perfect an AK-50. What do I think happened? I doubt it was an accident at all. Given Alec Baldwin's explosive temper, I do not think it was a mistake, except that he may have intended the shot for the guy that was only wounded.

  41. I have a squirt gun with a trigger like that.

  42. I was a police officer for 36 years, beginning in 1973, in a very large US city. I am not aware of these ever actually being used for riot control in civilian police departments. Supposedly, that is what they were designed for. Prison guards, etc. I can't speak to. We did have tear gas cannisters and tear gas rounds in the 70s. Cool gun, but I don't think it was ever used to shoot rioters in the USA.

  43. The problem with this gun is that it was "ahead of it's time" At the time it was offered people wouldn't spend money on .22s with muzzle brakes to tame the blast and recoil of a .22LR. Now they will. If they had introduced the gun in, say, 2015 and gotten it featured in a few video games, they would sell them like crazy. Given that Manny Mansfield has proven that 9mm will bounce off tin cans. Penetrating 5 cans is pretty impressive. 😜 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f55_mFAOvRA

  50. Except, in CA, it has to be added to the 'approved handgun roster', even if it meets all the other criteria. Fat chance. It may prove to be legal in other states, slightly less draconian than CA.
