@ Ultra Unity: It is a cliche precisely because it is so often true, and has been true in the past, as well: recruits who possess privately-owned firearms and learned to shoot them prior to joining the military, tend to do very well when it comes to riflemanship. Ken Royce, a.k.a. "Boston T. Party" of "Boston's Gun Bible," described it rather well, saying that the traditional view within the army has been that learning to handle a rifle and shoot it well is like learning to drive a car. In other words, once you are familiar-enough with the equipment to use it safely and competently, your training is done. That's a mistaken view of mastering of a firearm, for it is actually much more like mastering a musical instrument. Serviceable results can be attained quickly, but mastery takes a great deal of diligent and focused study and work. The Marine Corps - whose traditional view of "Every Marine a Rifleman" is so much a part of their institutional identity - understood this better than the army for most of our history, but the army has caught up somewhat by forming their Army Marksmanship Unit, which is a tremendous resource for them. Regardless of what branch you join, you'll do better shooting if you did it as a civilian beforehand, and even better again, if you have done it for a long time and know your craft inside-and-out. And it certainly sounds like you did.

It’s a pencil barrel with carbon fiber wrapping, neat, but hardly practical as a “fighting weapon.” It lacks modularity where the AR15 is revered for that. It lacks durability, where the AR15 isn’t amazing, but plenty good. WWSD removes the positives of the AR platform and replaces it with dubious improvements. All for a hefty price tag that could be better spent on a BCM basic bitch AR with fixed FSGB.

@Stevospeedo So how many counties have tried to occupy US or Australia in your lifetime? I noticed when I was in US some people talk of scenarios "what if" type of deal (like you in your answer above). But the fact is nobody will ever try to invade US for obvious reason and as for Australia nobody will do it as well, my suggestion is to stop watching news and live your life without paranoia. We here live our lives without giving a shit about politics and paying very little to news (because they are all shite) and looking at the Guns that we can buy as things that we can have some fun over the weekend, but nothing more than that. Maybe try that yourself, it might help you stop making scenarios about guerilla warfare against imaginary invader.

When I built my first AR it was back in 2012 and I went with a Daniel Defense Quadrail mostly because of the looks. Over the many years, I have been told that quadrails are a thing of the past, unnecessary, too heavy and offer no advantages over a much slimmer profile MLOC with picatinny inserts. It's nice to know they still serve a purpose especially in a rough and tumble environment.

I'm still rocking mine! I have a AR pistol that does have the M-LOC and I love having both.

I’d love for you to do regular segments telling stories from the military. That’s some serious ASMR there. Make that happen.

Great video, and once again, great production. Shout out to your editor! :)

nice summary and the reference to Chris at SAS is appreciated. His channel is a treasure trove of knowledge.

But if someone infringes on your rights by commiting a serious crime against you, are you really infringing their rights by banning them from owning a firearm in the future? Does banning someone from driving after drink driving infringe their rights?

I can’t wait to play “Garand Thumb: Full Auto Flannel”. It gotta be my favorite range sim game of all time.

the production quality, editing, and weapons shooting, handling, and knowledge make Garand Thumb the best gun content creator on this platform.

One of the things I love about the AR platform is that, as you say, the M4 is becoming a piece of history...but also not quite. The M4 is just one configuration of the countless ones that can be built with the AR platform. The only real limit we have is that civilian versions can't fire full auto, which isn't such a huge deal imho (your mileage may vary). Even if the price of the parts for a true M4 clone are a bit beyond your price, you can still build one that'll work great. Building my first AR-15 has been a lot of fun.

Great info!

Great start to the day 👌🏻

I've always envied the guys with the full rail and running mk262.

I’ve built this exact Block 2 rifle with SSA-E trigger about 6 years ago . It’s is by far my favorite rifle to shoot. And it’s always in arms reach while sleeping 🛌

Solid info. Thanks! Greets, T.

Talking about how long it takes for the barrel to fail, thinking of the HK video of the old G36 bursting out in flames after 700 rounds and the dude keeps blasting 200 more rounds through it until it burns so heavily he has to toss it away and after it cooled off continued to fire 30 rounds all without any malfunction and my government decided this gun can't handle heat

I remember throwing a quad pic handguard on my rifle and it was normal m4 hanguard length, It added so much weight I couldn't believe how much heavier it was. That rail looks twice as long, That thing must weight a absolute ton!

I remember fitting the Block II RIS to all of my team's M4s. Like you said, a great robust system. Eotech HWS was very prone to failure in all of it's incarnations. We always called them EoTurds😅. I had to replace at least 30% of team mates' Eotechs during the last trip to the 'Stan. Great channel, awesome content. Keep it up 👍

Major kudos for the use of “waxed poetic”

One of my only regrets in life is not snagging the DD/Brownells "clones" of this when Brownells was selling them complete for like $1100. Would have been an absolutely badass rifle for really not much cash

@BunyipDude

3 жыл бұрын

I had one; bought it from Brownell’s when it was on sale for $1500 (it was never $1100). Tbh, that Block II clone had a lot of build issues - the selector came from the factory loose, and many of the parts were not fitted properly. I also didn’t like that it came with a pinned-and-welded A2 flash hider rather than a Surefire 3P (I know that asking for a 4P would be asking too much in those days). The one cool feature was that it came with a DD cold-hammer forged SOCOM profile barrel, which is unique because DD does not normally offer that barrel profile - the factory DD M4A1 just comes with a Government profile barrel. Nonetheless, I wound up selling it after a year and just buying the factory DD M4A1 - in part, because I was trying to clone the “Sicario” rifle, and also because the Brownell’s SOPMOD Block II clone was so disappointing to me. I also just didn’t want to spend the money to buy clone-correct accessories, so it felt like a waste to have it.

@@bent4302 No problem; not all FOMO is good FOMO. IMHO, if you really want a Block II clone, get a Colt 6920 receiver, a Colt SOCOM profile or DD Government profile barrel (either is now clone correct), and a DD RIS II rail, and then build it yourself or have a good gunsmith do it for you.
