  1. Sig's was good, it won because it was the most conservative design. We ain't repeating the M16's introduction into service.

  2. It'll be a staple of sci-fi movies in a couple decades

  3. "We will get kicked off YouTube eventually" Oh why would they ever do that? The satirical murders not advertiser friendly?

  4. The locally sold hunter's camo should match your local woodlands. The tactical gear sold by specialty websites won't.

  5. Mine for a .223 cost a grand pre-tax. That's pretty average as it's worthwhile to get a nice one given there's a 200 dollar tax stamp. Also, I've been waiting for that tax stamp for over 9 months.

  6. I give my sincere thanks to this channel, for giving me access to a lot of the courses I never had a chance to encounter during my days as an Army grunt.

  7.  g cartm  What's with the blanket condescension? We're not in a civil war at the moment and my biggest complaint is how backed up the ATF is at issuing licenses for suppressor buyers like me. If you ask me those things shouldn't need a permit simply because of how many people buy them.

  8.  @jw5297  guns aren't status symbols to me

  9. 9:05 Army guys know the struggle....

  10. There'd have to be some standardized mechanism that works in all guns like the 1911

  11.  @carloshernandez2561  I have. It's irrelevant.

  12. I've never seen a pistol filmed as if it were an Iron Man suit...
    2
  13. And since most of us don't plan on committing felony arms modifications, we don't really have a need for guns that can sustain high rates of fire.

  14.  @jw5297  buy a combat rifle, then. You don't need a whole collection of expensive weapons you'll never use.

  15.  @jw5297  liar.

  16. During campaign, turn your phone to airplane mode when you ain't using it.

  17. The sound of those ricoches travel farther than I'd have thought. The sound is almost as clear as the gunshot itself.

  18. Same...

  20. If someone could translate what they were saying in Japanese that would likely boost the hilarity.

  21. This channel is going to get harassed by Arabs for months.....

  22. It was never actually considered abnormal for civvies to learn how to fight. The boy scouts was originally where they learned this stuff, during the Cold War there were volunteer groups keeping watch for bombers, and before the Civil War the vast majority of all US armed forces were unpaid militias. The only thing weird about these days is that tactical gear usage is very much a hobby for many people.

  23. What's the thing about Rhodesian camo?

  24. Correction: That’s the size of the average rifle but they didn't get much longer than that. It wasn't until the world wars that carbines became the norm.

  26. Civilian belt feds still cost 9 grand, and since you can't get full auto I don't see why anyone here would get one.

  33. There was a lot more in Rhodesia besides bush wars. And there were a lot more in the Bush Wars besides alleged cruelties.

  37. Correction: Only handfuls of men used rifled barrels, much of which were in the Continental Army. The Brits preferred early breachloaders but those also had issues.

  40. Merry Christmas you filthy animal

  41.  @jw5297  Nine grand per gun? And the only reason they cost that much is they have to be beefy in order to fire full-auto for extended periods, and again the only way normal people are getting that is felony arms modification. Just stay legal and buy a quality full-sized AR for a fraction the price?

  49. Same technology, just fit into a package small and cheap enough for grunts.

  50.    that's more due to your NCOs screwing you over than anything else. And for actually fighting as a militia or gang, commercially available phones and security programs are really the only way to do a whole list of things.

  51. Fighting in the city is a lot like being a homeless serial killer......

  71.  @mattmarzula  Dude, don't prepare for luducrous scenarios that will never happen. Think about what is likely to happen. Earthquakes, riots, gang violence, etc.

  73. During Bleeding Kansas, one killer tried to defend himself in court by saying he didn't think his birdshot shotgun could penetrate the victim's thick leather coat. They hung him.

  74. Correction; The militias that owned cannons weren't privately held cannons. Your mixup comes from how soldiers had to supply their own personal weapons in those days.

  75.  @peasanttoking6839  even these days corporate ownership and private ownership aren't the same, and back then some corporation WERE COUNTRIES. As in businessmen were governors of certain areas. So real false equivalence
    1
  76.  @mikealbert3516  No one bothers to regulate antique weapons, so weird equivalency. And municipalities often did ban men from militias, and in some cases disarmed them accordingly. Also, corporations were sometimes governments back then, and I know of no case where a private persob owned a heavy weapon... Although this is likely because they were expensive.
