Wow!!! Amazing conversation! What a career. Thanks to all of you guys. 🇺🇸

This was fantastic and was easily the best thing I had watched in months. Thank you for sharing all the stories and memories doing it! I have always felt and lived by the belief of being so damn good that you don't take yourself so seriously and keep a humble attitude as well as a sense of humor. You have someone show up for Friday Night Steel in full kit with a hard-on and a attitude to match. Here you have SOG and SF legends laughing and telling jokes. Friday Night Steel guy has a bachelors degree in bullshit. You can spot and see it coming a mile away if you know what you are talking about and doing. Excellent video and content with much respect here.

Another great guest lots of great knowledge and stories ! We better start producing these kind of men again and keep this country going !

In the early 80's they drilled the "quick kill method" into us at Hunter AAF. That stuck with me, that in the mid 90's as a Drill Sgt I would demo at the m16 qual range by doing quick kills at 300 meters without a problem, funny how things stick with you. Now I know who to thank; Thanks, Metal Dick!!!

In 1973 Basic Training we were not trained on Quick Kill at all, until we got to qualification firing. Then we were required to engage a few targets with QK techniques. Typical Army.

What a great interview. God bless you sir and thank you for your service!

Awesome interview- great way to spend my afternoon!!!

Subtitles are fine. You and Nick did fantastic, don't be too critical on yourself; I hope your knee is ok. In the last few weeks, I've been in a bad spot. Karl, your videos have kept me occupied, informed, and entertained. Your videos have kept my mind from dark places and helped me focus. I love the gear stuff with SGM Lamb. It's awesome to watch you two geek out on gear. It's awesome to watch two men with experience talk about gear and how it was used. Mr. Mullins is a legend, and he looks like it. Tilt looks 20 years younger than he is. I always look forward to your videos, Karl. And I'd watch Tilt watch paint dry. Great stuff. Thank you, fellas.

Amazing conversation! Audio books would be amazing too!

Great interview. I always enjoy hearing from John. I have to correct something at 1:25:40 though. You'll find that the _original_ frangible ammo dates back to 1945 and the .30-06 T44 Frangible round later type classified as the M22 Frangible round.

Great interview and stories Karl, both John Mullens and John Meyers are legends! You guys cracked me up with the shit shoot!! We (Rangers) were trained in counterterrorism and hostage rescue by the Blue Light Task Force in the mid 1970s, and yes we were taught quick kill techniques, trained in the michilen city shoot house as well as plane fuselages, train cars and buses. And yes, an audio book(s) would be awesome!!

Left me wanting more stories! In this interview, I realized Tilt is a great "Ed McMahon", and a less effective "Johnny Carson" reading excerpts as monologue in the SOG broadcasts. Any way you slice it, John is a tremendous resource and story teller, and an inspiration to this dyslexic, who also has trouble reading out loud.

Thanks Karl for interviewing John.

I'm very thankful for his stories ty sir

it's fantastic to hear these living legend's stories

Love hearing these stories.

Great to see this guy in a video. I did Sam in 3/69 , but Bullis first . Ended up in lll Corp and worked out of Loch Ninh many times . The guys I was with ( Rangers ) showed me this QK method in 70. Stay strong brother ! doc 25th / others 68-71 .

Can’t believe I missed this. Outstanding show. Have heard about BB gun training for years. Stories of folks getting good enough to shoot aspirin or Fizzes thrown in the air. You definitely have to try video wing shooting his method.

That was awesome karl, we now need of course the instinctive bb spot shooting. these men were giants. that strodin the Earth. in their prime. that truly was fascinating I. think the first vid i ever watch of tactical rifle man was point shooting with a pistol.

What an incredible American. I wish men like this could have taken power in our country.

Yes! Do the audio book please!

Great stuff! Hope you do a video of shooting aspirins with Red Ryders.

I know a PRU/Phoenix advisor from force recon . Wild stuff! Some rovinces had problems with theft and graft and no big intel snags! My contact had the biggest intel “spy” get during the entire war

White Star ski's, heavy wood with metal edges along with long cross-country poles. Needed to apply ski wax to the bottoms. I used Chippawaugh boots with an indent groove around the back of the heel. The original boots were Mountain boots from Germany, with a square sole tip. My Team Daddy had a pair of the Mountain boots from the 77th. He took us to a State Park for training, we were off any trails, and had to cut our own way through trees and mountain laurel, good training by the whole Team. 11th Group A Compay , Fort Devens.

what an American hero🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Yes please do get some operators to do an audio book

I was at Benning at that time. I did the BB gun during Vietnam orientation after jump school and also seen John Wayne filming the Green Berets.

Do the audio book Carl!!! All the best!

And yes, the audiobook would be most appreciated!

This was back when they had their own homemade kits they didn't have all these perfect pouches, and perfect holsters for each model, they had to improvise and make everything they need for ammo, food, etc.

As Hack would say, "You're either a stud or a dud." This man is a stud!

Just wow

Hi karl, Just curious, on about what the rest of the wording on the Pitcher behind John Mullins, head...

Bloody love this Karl! Do more and defo do the audiobooks - need to get this out to wider audiences and not let this level of humble hero vanish ….. must make sure you get the pronouns right 😂😂

I remember that Quick Kill training at Fort Dix, NJ. We shot BB gun rifles at 2 inch disks with white tape covering the center hole, like a washer. We tracked it up, pointed the gun and shot it at the apex before it fell downwards. This was in December 1967. Not using the sights, pointing at it was enough, about 3 inches above the tip of the barrel. With the M14 we shot pop-up sillowet-shaped green targets at various distances. Sometimes they got stuck causing an Alla-by for scoring. The best was night fire, with aiming sticks and elevation sticks. this was interesting on how many would miss targets at night. Some M14's would go full-auto instead of semi-auto. Lot of fun picking up brass that froze to the ground. The missing night targets was an eye-opener, more practice need to be done for this.

I’m a Mullins from eastern ky….rough breed

I got a little emotional in this interview. CCC RTCALIFORNIA. NOT a member, just a family member.

The look when he said “what do you do for rats?” 😳

Unlike the SEALS, ‘SFs’ don’t advertise their accomplishments.

Montignards. Not "Mountain Yards". edit - I get it, you used machine captioning - there's no point since YT does this anyway. If you're going to hard-code subs, you really should check them. "through a file" instead of "suicidal" at around 40:00 as well.
