  1. It is cool but I expect there would be a lot of finger pinching.

  2. Sees picture. Clicks play. "hmmm, these are somewhat smaller than expected"

  3. No lead or copper hopefully. Not that brass is ideal.

  4. It'ssss, so tiny.

  5. I feel like I watched you walk through here on a live stream.🤔

  7. An "AMELI", is it unusual?

  8. Glad it's better than you feared.

  9. Whenever people tell me it has to be expensive because of quality parts costs. ....yeah, that's often not how it works. Companies often price themselves out of their market, it may make short term gains but it's never a good long-term strategy.

  10. The slide release seems like a pain.

  11. I don't like that the safety automatically disengages. (But I also would prefer no grip safety)

  13. Cool

  14. The more guns I see with the tilting barrel, the more I dislike it.

  15. Basically the same situation as Cyberpunk. A real issue triggers sharing more issues than would otherwise (earnest or disingenuous) a sort of hate trend.

  16. Colt probably stole that from someone else too.

  17. I really like the idea of mountable and detachable guns in vehicles. It makes the mobile units much more adaptable.

  18. I was surprised and pleased to see the barrel/chamber was monolithic. But I too would not buy the gun were I a target shooter at the time. I would opt for a revolver. The extra rounds make it more practical. Also, I would imagine a competitive shooter would participate in multiple categories. To create a design that would prevent use in any other category would be a nuisance in itself.

  19. Carbine pistol? *Ah I paired the wrong words. .30 Carbine (pistol)

  20. "have you ever fired a cobray Terminator?" "Ian, is that even possible?"

  21. For those of us who don't have them memorized I wish they all had side by side images. But otherwise, still very interesting. Thank you.

  22. How long did that take to get established?

  23. What's worse getting the same gun but now needing to supply an entirely different cartridge at the same time. Or getting a completely different weapon in the same cartridge but requiring different parts and training?

  24. This has some very cool design elements.

  25. 'calibore' Let's be honest that word works better.

  26. You can still do a lot of damage with a rock. (granted, not as much)

  27. That definitely looks unpleasant to shoot.

  28. The M1 Carbine? So Winchester was right, they could make a better gun than the m1 garand.

  29. I hate in-text references they can be so abhorrently long that it ruins readability. It also wastes a huge amount of ink and paper. Footnotes is a better approach you are right. ...Though I think that it would be ideal to have abbreviated footnote references and a catalogue of references at the end. But Then you would run into the wasted paper/ink/space still. Digital references are vastly superior in that sense but reading from a screen is not ideal.

  30. This attracts hamburgers? Say no more.

  31. Is this one Canadians can legally win this time? I would think so... (contest rules aside anyway).

  32. I find these kinds of guns uninteresting, unless their history is a good story.

  33. that red dot is hideous.

  34. I would say the first automatic pistol would be the first one designed that would work. But in general when you want to find the first __ then it is often a case of how you define what a __ is.

  35. A hamburger diverter ...or is it RootBeer?

  36.  @aserta  you talk like there aren't colt revolvers going for over 1 million.

  37. The thing about marketing (and one of my most disliked aspects of it) is that something doesn't have to be better. People merely need to think it is. (Like snake oil, or 'charms', or certain tool brands.?

  38. Nurf gun trigger

  40. A jewish man building arms for the German military... That would have gone over poorly with both groups in the coming years.

  41. Well, at least he and his family made it out.

  42. Are people selected based on the quality of their facial hair? Guy had a pretty solid moustache.

  43. I feel like the safety being knocked on may have been an intended feature.

  44. original design is better

  45. An excellent video, thank you. I don't think we have enough data to say concretely that 0.06 seconds isn't down to test variance. Only way to check is have a known adjustable tempo and try to start and stop the timer on the tempo and see what the standard deviation. But at the very least we can see there is no substantial advantage of slam fire (at least with this capacity). In exchange for some safety drawbacks.

  46. Thank you for the addition to my small catalogue of 9un knowledge that I cannot really use for anything.

  47. The US news "It's an AR-15"

  50. There should be more videos on the platform issues. But A certain company doesn't seem to share the videos as much as the average video. I noticed that YouTube seems to be adding more Utreon features (suspicious).
