anyone who has done any scouting in hostile territory knows that a Scouting mission can turn into a firefight in an instant. Thus a bolt action rifle should be removed from the equation. If you are not prepared to jump straight into the teeth of an imminent fight, your gear is poorly planned and useless.. the Jeff Cooper "scout rifle" mentality is far removed and antiquated. Forgot it and plan for modern firefights. If you wish to die in a modern combat situation, take a bolt gun.. I know how brash I sound, but no one here can prove my words wrong as they come from extensive experience in diverse situations over the last 40 of my 59 years. I have no doubt that you are a fine instructor Sir. But the world that is quickly approaching us has no place for 5 round magazines in a fight. See you in November my friends, when our nation goes to hell.

You’re totally right, match your weapons to your tactics. The right tool for the job! Tactics will always outweigh gear anyways, but if you notice during the METT-TC discussion for each rifle I tried to clarify my AR is my go-to for any sort of combat scenario, and the bolt gun is something less conspicuous that I can carry any other time. Not everything is a combat patrol.. Packing an AR doesn’t really fit any other scenario that I actually do, so that’s why I have two different rifles for two different “missions”. That being said you have to match your equipment to your tactics, and getting into a “firefight” isn’t really something irregulars should be planning to do anyways. Too many people are imprinting themselves into what they see going on in Ukraine and forgetting that the Ukrainians have NATO support, there’s no guarantee that such a thing will exist if the wheels come off in this country. If it weren’t for NATO’s support Russia would have steamrolled Ukraine a long time ago regardless of what rifles they are carrying. Furthermore, I’m not sure what combat experience you have, but to completely write off a bolt action rifle as “combat ineffective” ignores history. There once was an M40 sniper rifle (a bolt action Remington 700) that the insurgents captured in Ramadi. Locating this sniper rifle was a top priority, while the plethora of AK’s, PKM’s and RPG’s in the city were just treated as a normal thing. The action of a rifle isn’t nearly as important as how it’s used. Furthermore, you fight with what you have, and while everyone has access to big box stores and the internet to equip themselves, that may not always be the case and being familiar with and understanding the pros and cons of different weapons is only going to help in the long run.

Great video and info, new sub or another fng lol. though I waited till the end to sub but I support my fellow crayon eaters and often find we have a similar mindset or logic and not crapping on other branches(except a few but thwyir used to it by now & rocketeers will catch up ha) jokes aside I've had SHTF conversations with many vets mainly and few civilians (if they have something to bring to the table thats valuable they might be an asset and honestly anyone can get a pizza box or be taught if they want to learn) over the yrs and it funny say deer camp though its big woods and neighbors are far enough away but they usually all get together for a fire & you can if you listen to a person one know if they served (though most are quiet professionals/ the only exception to this is 10 Nov & sometimes it extends to the 11th but as i get older I realize that I'm not 18 anymore ha) but certain branches have different mindsets like the Corps everyone is a Rifleman where some depending on mos may only handle a weapon in basic again not crapping on anyone though I will occasionally bust balls its with people whom i know & its like grunt vs pog, you can be a tier 1 Pipehitter but if the "pog" logistics, air wingers, even admin screw up something your whole mett-tc can be F'd (i left out intel bc usually even the best package has something wrong lol adapt and overcome(or blow it up). I think what your doing is a service bc end of the day even if you have firsthand knowledge & things change also its good to hear other pov bc your never to old to learn something. I run a similar sling setup one for reasons you mentioned biggest is reliability which my number 2 leads into though I don't know the creator personally (& if i did i can blame it on tbi brain) we have similar backgrounds (even at MCRD Hollywood they are taught the same)though different brand most of my time in we didn't use the fancy slings, until you got to the fleet(even than it depended ) but from 2nd or 3rd week on the Island through SOI East {Giegers tigers ha } had basic slings though you learned how to use it to hopefully get a better shot(bribing those in the pit helped to lol) though alot of these memories are spotty as memory sux but I want to say besides your belt it could be used a TQ but it was like a multi tool. I don't remember ever being issued say CAT TQ though I remember job after having them & even when I originally took TCCC it wasn't in the book but we had them. Sheet we were still being issues Vietnam era flak jackets, we bought our own body armor if you wanted it and for me I was a 0331 if you saw me with an M16 especially when not on base or in the CONUS its probably really bad, but I do know some guys that used various different slings and seen many fail its like the Blackhawk holsters(will say Blackhawk did have some solid stuff) I personally have run Safariland for 20+yrs in various places and jobs(fuk I think I am now the FOG older wiser FNG) but its like ya I have a garmin but I do also carry a old school map and compass. Even though eyesight isn't best and compete with an RMR i have buis, or all my optics have eteched reticles when batteries fail. Sorry about the novel honestly I really just came to say hi and share something about the poly lowers. I have one i got to test and have probably 2k rds on it w/o any issues but from life experience though it does save some weight but if you were to get a crack anywhere in the lower & say your on a patrol hopefully you have a secondary weapon even if a pistol because my fear would be complete failure or end up like Scott(sorry KB had to lol) I was just thinking about it i picked up 2 shotguns in Dec and I think the lowers aren't metal but its only the LR, I don't feel like going to safe right now and having a brain fart but the lower with 2k rds that i have looks similar though its green and though I look at it as a pro & con being one solid peice bc you can't swap out grips or stocks but same time less parts to potentially rattle or losen over time. But honestly the biggest reason I wanted to comment on poly lowers before my head injuries lead me like a butter bar with a compass lmao. When I originally became a reserve leo we were properly tained with straight Monadnock PR-24's and I carried various variations before I became permanently broken or found out that I wasn't invisible, but vaguely remember there was a police department that had a composite version and they had a few that broke in colder temps and few bent in warmer temps, i vaguely remember ones we had but were a newer material(I actually still have it 15+yrs no issue) but from research yrs ago they came in different materials and I know between the RK incident, & other concerns(cops forgot to.grab them out of the car vs being on your belt) departments switched to collapsible style most were aluminum or steel(it was.eirher mil or.job after but still have my ASP that was i carried) at the time fortunately being a reserve though I had to pay to maintain certs vs other styles. Though not postive(more so from recent videos of "peaceful protests") I thought LAPD who was most known to carry them their protocols changed to using them only for crowd control but think they switch back to old hickory. The reason I mention this is though I now know that there are many different types of plastics & I'm not an engineer so personally can't tell you what the properties of one vs other has or doesn't. So I prefer to stick to metal though does weigh more & it can be 100% mental thing but like I have seen some forums showing cracks though I think I have now 3 poly type lowers knock on wood i haven't had an issue with any of them but personally the rifle i built for the SHTF is mainly made out of higher quality metal materials. Like I said i vaguely remember the article & what the composite material they had was i have never had a metal PR-24 nor metal collapsible baton break nor bend, or its like entry tools, if you haven't figured out i worked in multiple roles in public safety but I now many FD's that have swapped to some type of poly handles and even some tier 1 teams carry similar tools but I also know there are some depts that strictly will only use wooden handles. End of the day I kind of look at it like when i did a job as a medic between military and public safety we had issued gear and we also had some though it had to meet certain requirements if we wanted to buy something different like before Mystery Ranch started making things for the military I used there packs. Basically saying that honestly we all have gear and things we have used, tried, or have that we have trust in just because someone can balance a ball on there nose and considered ellite doesn't mean you need to buy it or it will work for your needs though keep an open mind because technology improves perfect example Alice Packs are gone as well as shelter halfs now there are quick popup tents they weight nothing, being old school if it was possible for me to sleep in a tent i would choose the canvas shelter half because if you broke a pole you could find a stick or use 550 cord but honestly if I remember correctly besides on the Island and SOI i don't remember ever carrying one & there is only one time I can remember that I wish I had a tent vs gortex bivy sack & poncho(before you ask i have my original woobie also after I got out I had chance to get few NOS sealed in bags ones in good old tri color woodland though I date myself some are jealous ha) but we were in the field at Lejeune and night I actually got to sleep when I awoke I thought my guys F'd with me as I couldn't move till I was able to get hands free(I'm 6'5" brickshithouse and sleeping with a 240 was tight as is) it was the one in evey 3-5 yrs it snows down there and we got like 2+ ft that night(its funny how memories come back after bead injuries but vaguely remember the butter bar screaming as he thought someone tied him up and that O's were nogo on unit team building aka the H word yes most O's were but not the butter bars more ao without getting caught they got a hint of it lol)

There’s a ton of variables with each steel, hence the reason I strive for consistency throughout my process to try and nail them down.

I ran my guys thru a lot of coopers drills, like "Rifle 10", with AR10S and M14s, red dots and irons, at 100 to 300 yds. I saw the same confusing phenomenon in our qual as well where they would make great hits standing and miss kneeling. I think it was a combo of over confidence in the better supported position and not taking the same time and focus on fundamentals as when standing. They always did better when I yelled at em to slow down:) I highly advocate sitting on a foot for a highbrid kneeling seated position. A little better support with out sacrificing mobility or elevation to full seated. I have been training with a gen 2 American ranch in 5.56 w/ a can. Love that set up. Keep up the good content and keep your powder dry!
@BadlandsRiflemanАй бұрын
I’d say that’s exactly what I was doing as well, I was definitely focusing more on the standing shots and just taking the kneeling for granted. I always teach the kneeling over the sitting for the same exact reasons - mobility and ease of getting into position. Plus if you’re “taking a knee” during a halt it’s the position you’re already in so you may as well be good with it. I don’t think anyone would have been real impressed if I assumed a sitting position pulling security lol. Thanks for watching and I appreciate you sharing your thoughts!

The line system doesn’t make sense here. The whole point of the line system is to be able to survive or accomplish the mission if you take contact and have to drop your pack. This scenario doesn’t not exist when you’re hunting. Also, in what scenario would you ever drop your line 3B gear, as you’re calling it and continue with just the base back?
@BadlandsRifleman2 ай бұрын
So there isn’t really an official “line system”, it’s more of a concept than can be adapted to whatever your “mission” may be. I teach it as a way of planning and organizing your equipment so that critical items and essential needs have redundancy. I divide my line 3 sustainment into A and B so that I always have mission essential gear and the basics to survive 24 hours in my 3A kit. 3A would be something like a daypack or patrol pack with the bare minimum to keep you from going hypothermic at night while still being mission effective. There were many times I went on patrols that were only “supposed” to last 8 hours, and then boom something happens and it turns into a 24 hour operation without getting to refit. Having some spare socks, a poncho, some warming layers, and a little chow was damn nice to have 16 hours into an 8 hour patrol. On the civilian side there’s plenty of examples of someone recreating in the back country and getting stuck out longer than they expected, so none of that is really anything novel, the main difference being what “mission essential” gear you’re packing. As for the 3B gear, that’s the sustainment gear that helps us to actually live somewhat comfortably for multiple days, as opposed to 3A that’s really only meant to get us by for 24 hours or so. 3B would include things like dedicated shelter, cooking, extra clothing, sleeping gear, etc. This also keeps 3A and 3B separate so that if we need to ditch the heavier 3B gear we can quickly and easily, and it’s also nice so that once “camp” is set up we have our essentials ready to go for any scouting, hunting, patrolling, etc. we may need to do. This year during hunting I accomplished this by keeping the 3B gear in a dry bag that could be cached quickly if I needed to. In the following article I detailed a more general purpose setup that I think would be more appropriate in a tactical environment: badlandsfieldcraft.wordpress.com/2023/08/20/junk-on-the-bunk-an-effective-way-to-efficiently-carry-line-3a-and-3b-gear/ Another one on just the 3A gear: badlandsfieldcraft.wordpress.com/2023/05/01/junk-on-the-bunk-line-3a-gear-and-how-i-pack-it/ And another one that explains how I use the line system: badlandsfieldcraft.wordpress.com/2022/10/15/opinion-how-i-setup-my-equipment-using-the-line-system/

I'm doing the smaller version. Got the ruger in 762x39. Saving up for a trigicon credo 3-9.
I’ve thought about picking one of those up too. If I lived down south or in thick timber that’s what I would run, I like having the better wind drift that the Grendel offers out where I live. Trijicon makes great optics, I’m sure it will be a great setup!
The webbing makes me cringe. 5 min in my neck of the woods that rifle would be tangled up in a bush.
You must be busting a lot of brush!
Condor makes good budget pouches. I’ve been thinking about busting out my sewing machine and making some kit myself. Starting with some slings. Great video
Sounds awesome, plenty of market out there for good gear! Good luck!
I just came across your channel an subscribed like what your doing
Thank you! Appreciate you!
Very well thought out and a more realistic view of what a “scout rifle” should be, in my opinion. The scout rifle concept has been beaten to death over the years and it’s nice to see someone “thinking outside the box”, well done.
Thank you sir, I’m respectfully not calling mine a “scout rifle”, but it certainly has similarities in the concept.
@@BadlandsRifleman Practical Bush Rifle is a good term and I would say accurate. When I think of PBR, I think of Pabst Blue Ribbon 😂
@michaelnasser8697 I think that too, we can’t be too serious!
How I feel from watching this first video from this guy I really like it. A lot different from the same old same old I have not checked his pricing on any of what he is selling but man I’m liking it all and I’m going to check this stuff out thanks for the vid
Thanks buddy, have a good one!
anyone who has done any scouting in hostile territory knows that a Scouting mission can turn into a firefight in an instant. Thus a bolt action rifle should be removed from the equation. If you are not prepared to jump straight into the teeth of an imminent fight, your gear is poorly planned and useless.. the Jeff Cooper "scout rifle" mentality is far removed and antiquated. Forgot it and plan for modern firefights. If you wish to die in a modern combat situation, take a bolt gun.. I know how brash I sound, but no one here can prove my words wrong as they come from extensive experience in diverse situations over the last 40 of my 59 years. I have no doubt that you are a fine instructor Sir. But the world that is quickly approaching us has no place for 5 round magazines in a fight. See you in November my friends, when our nation goes to hell.
You ain't wrong
You’re totally right, match your weapons to your tactics. The right tool for the job! Tactics will always outweigh gear anyways, but if you notice during the METT-TC discussion for each rifle I tried to clarify my AR is my go-to for any sort of combat scenario, and the bolt gun is something less conspicuous that I can carry any other time. Not everything is a combat patrol.. Packing an AR doesn’t really fit any other scenario that I actually do, so that’s why I have two different rifles for two different “missions”. That being said you have to match your equipment to your tactics, and getting into a “firefight” isn’t really something irregulars should be planning to do anyways. Too many people are imprinting themselves into what they see going on in Ukraine and forgetting that the Ukrainians have NATO support, there’s no guarantee that such a thing will exist if the wheels come off in this country. If it weren’t for NATO’s support Russia would have steamrolled Ukraine a long time ago regardless of what rifles they are carrying. Furthermore, I’m not sure what combat experience you have, but to completely write off a bolt action rifle as “combat ineffective” ignores history. There once was an M40 sniper rifle (a bolt action Remington 700) that the insurgents captured in Ramadi. Locating this sniper rifle was a top priority, while the plethora of AK’s, PKM’s and RPG’s in the city were just treated as a normal thing. The action of a rifle isn’t nearly as important as how it’s used. Furthermore, you fight with what you have, and while everyone has access to big box stores and the internet to equip themselves, that may not always be the case and being familiar with and understanding the pros and cons of different weapons is only going to help in the long run.
Great video and info, new sub or another fng lol. though I waited till the end to sub but I support my fellow crayon eaters and often find we have a similar mindset or logic and not crapping on other branches(except a few but thwyir used to it by now & rocketeers will catch up ha) jokes aside I've had SHTF conversations with many vets mainly and few civilians (if they have something to bring to the table thats valuable they might be an asset and honestly anyone can get a pizza box or be taught if they want to learn) over the yrs and it funny say deer camp though its big woods and neighbors are far enough away but they usually all get together for a fire & you can if you listen to a person one know if they served (though most are quiet professionals/ the only exception to this is 10 Nov & sometimes it extends to the 11th but as i get older I realize that I'm not 18 anymore ha) but certain branches have different mindsets like the Corps everyone is a Rifleman where some depending on mos may only handle a weapon in basic again not crapping on anyone though I will occasionally bust balls its with people whom i know & its like grunt vs pog, you can be a tier 1 Pipehitter but if the "pog" logistics, air wingers, even admin screw up something your whole mett-tc can be F'd (i left out intel bc usually even the best package has something wrong lol adapt and overcome(or blow it up). I think what your doing is a service bc end of the day even if you have firsthand knowledge & things change also its good to hear other pov bc your never to old to learn something. I run a similar sling setup one for reasons you mentioned biggest is reliability which my number 2 leads into though I don't know the creator personally (& if i did i can blame it on tbi brain) we have similar backgrounds (even at MCRD Hollywood they are taught the same)though different brand most of my time in we didn't use the fancy slings, until you got to the fleet(even than it depended ) but from 2nd or 3rd week on the Island through SOI East {Giegers tigers ha } had basic slings though you learned how to use it to hopefully get a better shot(bribing those in the pit helped to lol) though alot of these memories are spotty as memory sux but I want to say besides your belt it could be used a TQ but it was like a multi tool. I don't remember ever being issued say CAT TQ though I remember job after having them & even when I originally took TCCC it wasn't in the book but we had them. Sheet we were still being issues Vietnam era flak jackets, we bought our own body armor if you wanted it and for me I was a 0331 if you saw me with an M16 especially when not on base or in the CONUS its probably really bad, but I do know some guys that used various different slings and seen many fail its like the Blackhawk holsters(will say Blackhawk did have some solid stuff) I personally have run Safariland for 20+yrs in various places and jobs(fuk I think I am now the FOG older wiser FNG) but its like ya I have a garmin but I do also carry a old school map and compass. Even though eyesight isn't best and compete with an RMR i have buis, or all my optics have eteched reticles when batteries fail. Sorry about the novel honestly I really just came to say hi and share something about the poly lowers. I have one i got to test and have probably 2k rds on it w/o any issues but from life experience though it does save some weight but if you were to get a crack anywhere in the lower & say your on a patrol hopefully you have a secondary weapon even if a pistol because my fear would be complete failure or end up like Scott(sorry KB had to lol) I was just thinking about it i picked up 2 shotguns in Dec and I think the lowers aren't metal but its only the LR, I don't feel like going to safe right now and having a brain fart but the lower with 2k rds that i have looks similar though its green and though I look at it as a pro & con being one solid peice bc you can't swap out grips or stocks but same time less parts to potentially rattle or losen over time. But honestly the biggest reason I wanted to comment on poly lowers before my head injuries lead me like a butter bar with a compass lmao. When I originally became a reserve leo we were properly tained with straight Monadnock PR-24's and I carried various variations before I became permanently broken or found out that I wasn't invisible, but vaguely remember there was a police department that had a composite version and they had a few that broke in colder temps and few bent in warmer temps, i vaguely remember ones we had but were a newer material(I actually still have it 15+yrs no issue) but from research yrs ago they came in different materials and I know between the RK incident, & other concerns(cops forgot to.grab them out of the car vs being on your belt) departments switched to collapsible style most were aluminum or steel(it was.eirher mil or.job after but still have my ASP that was i carried) at the time fortunately being a reserve though I had to pay to maintain certs vs other styles. Though not postive(more so from recent videos of "peaceful protests") I thought LAPD who was most known to carry them their protocols changed to using them only for crowd control but think they switch back to old hickory. The reason I mention this is though I now know that there are many different types of plastics & I'm not an engineer so personally can't tell you what the properties of one vs other has or doesn't. So I prefer to stick to metal though does weigh more & it can be 100% mental thing but like I have seen some forums showing cracks though I think I have now 3 poly type lowers knock on wood i haven't had an issue with any of them but personally the rifle i built for the SHTF is mainly made out of higher quality metal materials. Like I said i vaguely remember the article & what the composite material they had was i have never had a metal PR-24 nor metal collapsible baton break nor bend, or its like entry tools, if you haven't figured out i worked in multiple roles in public safety but I now many FD's that have swapped to some type of poly handles and even some tier 1 teams carry similar tools but I also know there are some depts that strictly will only use wooden handles. End of the day I kind of look at it like when i did a job as a medic between military and public safety we had issued gear and we also had some though it had to meet certain requirements if we wanted to buy something different like before Mystery Ranch started making things for the military I used there packs. Basically saying that honestly we all have gear and things we have used, tried, or have that we have trust in just because someone can balance a ball on there nose and considered ellite doesn't mean you need to buy it or it will work for your needs though keep an open mind because technology improves perfect example Alice Packs are gone as well as shelter halfs now there are quick popup tents they weight nothing, being old school if it was possible for me to sleep in a tent i would choose the canvas shelter half because if you broke a pole you could find a stick or use 550 cord but honestly if I remember correctly besides on the Island and SOI i don't remember ever carrying one & there is only one time I can remember that I wish I had a tent vs gortex bivy sack & poncho(before you ask i have my original woobie also after I got out I had chance to get few NOS sealed in bags ones in good old tri color woodland though I date myself some are jealous ha) but we were in the field at Lejeune and night I actually got to sleep when I awoke I thought my guys F'd with me as I couldn't move till I was able to get hands free(I'm 6'5" brickshithouse and sleeping with a 240 was tight as is) it was the one in evey 3-5 yrs it snows down there and we got like 2+ ft that night(its funny how memories come back after bead injuries but vaguely remember the butter bar screaming as he thought someone tied him up and that O's were nogo on unit team building aka the H word yes most O's were but not the butter bars more ao without getting caught they got a hint of it lol)
Again I'm truly sorry for the novel response sometimes with my TBI like I said it's like giving a butter bar a compass and my brain just goes off and I'm lost in the woods fortunately now I have a service dog that tells me what to do and keeps me in line lol
No problem! Good insights for sure and thanks for sharing your experience! I heard back from KE Arms the other day and they told me their lowers are rated for -40F and are being used in Alaska and Finland. That being said, I want to see proof before I consider it for cold weather use. Next winter I’ll do my own testing, but even then I’m just going to stick with my normal lower. That’s for subbing and have a great week!
Just found your channel. Very similar mindset as me. Less is more. What company fluted your barrel for you?
For sure, every little piece we add increases the complexity of the whole system. I had C.C. Gunworks, a local gun smith, do the fluting and he also drilled and tapped the barrel for the scout rail.
Do you feel hindered by the short sight line between the rear and front sight on the rail? Good shooting, really enjoy your videos.
The shorter sight radius is a compromise compared to full length sights, but I was still able to shoot to the potential of my eyes and the rifle. It’s about 12.5 inches so it’s not terrible for the type of shooting the rifle is meant for. On my next rifle I’d like to have Skinner just do a normal scope base with the rear peep sight and a dove tailed front blade on the barrel, and mount an LPVO.
@@BadlandsRifleman Interesting. I have a ruger gsr with a xsight picatinny base that has a peep sight that aligns with the factory front sight. It adds some weight but I'm happy with it since it gives me the ability to mount a scout or regular scope as well as the back up irons. Tho I mostly use it with a normal mpvo and use the rail in front of the scope to mount a thermal imager for hog hunting. Could be worth checking out if you ever want to try something else. Keep up the good stuff 👍
Great rifle setups and presentation! I have the Magpul RLS sling on my Steyr Scout, I love it and it shaves some weight compared to the MS1.
Thanks! The RLS is a good sling too, it’s actually what I used to use but I wanted to be able to adjust the sling length easily in the field. Everything is a compromise for sure!
Nice knife man, I started using 52100 and I am very impressed with the performance of the steel, what temperature are you tampering for 61hrc?
Thanks! I’ve been tempering at 400F for an hour two times.
@BadlandsRifleman Strange you are getting 61hrc at that temperature, ive been told by a qualified metallurgist that 52100 require a 2 hour temper cycle at 430F to achieve 61hrc 400F is what you temper 1095 at
@Rcknives That’s what my Rockwell hardness tester is saying after I calibrate it. I’ve found Austenitizing temperature plays a big role in final hardness. I quenched these at 1520F in 80F parks 50 oil. I know every 15F austenitizing temperature gains me another point of hardness from the test coupons I’ve made. There’s a ton of variables with each steel, hence the reason I strive for consistency throughout my process to try and nail them down.
I have that same light on my go to AR. But I also have the primary Arms 1-8c with the trijicon RCR on a 12 o'clock diving board. We have pretty much the same setup. Great video Bud.
Awesome, that 1-8 compact looks like an awesome scope. I love how lightweight it is, definitely helps offset the extra weight of the RCR. Passive aiming with a piggybacked optic can be tricky with night vision, how has it been working for you?
Great vid! New sub - keep ‘em coming - will check out your DIY smoke post next 🙏 Is that Kilo bino setup to sync with your optic on the bolt gun (I presume)?
Thank you! I believe the Kilo binos can sync to certain Sig optics but I don’t currently use any Sig optics. I just utilize it as you would any other binos with the added benefit that I can instantly range whatever I’m looking at. The rangefinder is stellar, I never have a problem ranging inside of 1500 yards. Thanks for watching!
That looks like a great all around model of knife. 💯👍
Thanks Steve!
What is the netting you have on the AR forend / optic? Where can I get it? A video on camouflaging (not painting) the rifle would be cool.
It’s fish net, I’m working on a video detailing the rifles and I’ll definitely go over that. Thanks for watching!
Don't forget the can of that horrible coffee you guys support called Black Rifle Coffee. You know the fake patriots who cashed in while giving money to anti gun groups. Yeah you guys support those losers. Besides that this topic has been done to death.
Wrong company bud
Credibility in equipment evaluation was damaged with that Cav Arms polymer lower rifle. It is tantamount to getting reviews on Harbor Freight tools and Sportsman's Guide Chinese optics. None of the three are suitable for life safety applications.
It’s cool, keep finding places to confirm your bias’. It’s a KE Arms lower by the way.
@@BadlandsRifleman Yeah, every government agency in military is just clamoring to get CavArms. There's a reason they went out of business and very few are still in circulation due to cracking. The counterfeit optics are no better. It was meant to be constructive criticism not a personal attack; it is childish to try to defend inferior products, and doesn't say much about your interest in the welfare of the viewer. Hostility and snowflake terminology our emotional responses to an objective observation on quality and suitability for service.
Once again it’s not cav arms. Secondly I don’t care what “government agencies” choose to blow their budgets on. Third, if I wanted constructive criticism I wouldn’t ask a complete stranger. Feel free to stick around though, I can tell I can teach you a lot.
ROFLMAO! You thought that KE is independent and produced their own product in house?!? You have a lot to learn, not much to teach, especially as it relates to firearms design, repair, and history. It's obvious that you were never anywhere near an armory or a machine shop. Maybe a lesson in how to find a job that pays enough to buy decent equipment. Stay at the shallow end with the rest of the harbor freight warriors. Do you wonder why others excel and prosper, if you're struggling? Denial of fact is a sign. Mention it to the VA when you're relaying symptoms.
@@BadlandsRifleman ROFLMAO! Both companies are the identical product. KE illegally copied cav arms, and was sued for it, but you didn't know that. Real Expert. I'll get my info from credible sources who can face reality, and separate their emotion from objective info and empirical data.
Another tactical sheep. You need sleeves to be legit.
Soon as I get my coffee company started I’ll get those sleeves!
You Marines are always squared away on gear and always practical set up! Solid video brother, keep em coming!!
Thank you sir!
love your videos bro
Awesome! Thanks for watching! I’m in the middle of working on a few more. One is building a knife start to finish, a few are gear layouts, one on the Becker patrol pack, and a knife testing video
Great patch idea, never have enough 'aids'. 'need' to know time to show North, i'll check how to count hands. 0:55
Thanks, I can do a quick video on that too!
I ran my guys thru a lot of coopers drills, like "Rifle 10", with AR10S and M14s, red dots and irons, at 100 to 300 yds. I saw the same confusing phenomenon in our qual as well where they would make great hits standing and miss kneeling. I think it was a combo of over confidence in the better supported position and not taking the same time and focus on fundamentals as when standing. They always did better when I yelled at em to slow down:) I highly advocate sitting on a foot for a highbrid kneeling seated position. A little better support with out sacrificing mobility or elevation to full seated. I have been training with a gen 2 American ranch in 5.56 w/ a can. Love that set up. Keep up the good content and keep your powder dry!
I’d say that’s exactly what I was doing as well, I was definitely focusing more on the standing shots and just taking the kneeling for granted. I always teach the kneeling over the sitting for the same exact reasons - mobility and ease of getting into position. Plus if you’re “taking a knee” during a halt it’s the position you’re already in so you may as well be good with it. I don’t think anyone would have been real impressed if I assumed a sitting position pulling security lol. Thanks for watching and I appreciate you sharing your thoughts!
Black Rifle Coffee supporters get F'd. We ain't gonna forget.
Yeah, Fight the Power!🤣
Hows the price and availability of Grendel?
I can get Hornady black 123 grain match ELD for about $28 a box of 20, and the 123 SST for $31. I’ll be doing some load development for mine and handling with the 123 SST this summer. I usually see the SST’s at all the sporting goods stores in my region.
This is a great benchmark for a rifleman in general. Subbed.
Thanks, I think it’s a great methodology. I just got the taller QD rings for the scout scope so I’ll be heading out to rezero that optic and do some work with the scout scope. Thanks for the sub, take care!
great video thanks🙂
Thank you! Thanks for stopping by!
You guys are big time supporters of Black Rifle Coffee Co. No freaking way would I support you.
You must be thinking of some other company, I’m a one man show and BRCC lost my business when the CEO opened his mouth about the Kenosha Kid. Fieldcraft is a skill, not a company..
The line system doesn’t make sense here. The whole point of the line system is to be able to survive or accomplish the mission if you take contact and have to drop your pack. This scenario doesn’t not exist when you’re hunting. Also, in what scenario would you ever drop your line 3B gear, as you’re calling it and continue with just the base back?
So there isn’t really an official “line system”, it’s more of a concept than can be adapted to whatever your “mission” may be. I teach it as a way of planning and organizing your equipment so that critical items and essential needs have redundancy. I divide my line 3 sustainment into A and B so that I always have mission essential gear and the basics to survive 24 hours in my 3A kit. 3A would be something like a daypack or patrol pack with the bare minimum to keep you from going hypothermic at night while still being mission effective. There were many times I went on patrols that were only “supposed” to last 8 hours, and then boom something happens and it turns into a 24 hour operation without getting to refit. Having some spare socks, a poncho, some warming layers, and a little chow was damn nice to have 16 hours into an 8 hour patrol. On the civilian side there’s plenty of examples of someone recreating in the back country and getting stuck out longer than they expected, so none of that is really anything novel, the main difference being what “mission essential” gear you’re packing. As for the 3B gear, that’s the sustainment gear that helps us to actually live somewhat comfortably for multiple days, as opposed to 3A that’s really only meant to get us by for 24 hours or so. 3B would include things like dedicated shelter, cooking, extra clothing, sleeping gear, etc. This also keeps 3A and 3B separate so that if we need to ditch the heavier 3B gear we can quickly and easily, and it’s also nice so that once “camp” is set up we have our essentials ready to go for any scouting, hunting, patrolling, etc. we may need to do. This year during hunting I accomplished this by keeping the 3B gear in a dry bag that could be cached quickly if I needed to. In the following article I detailed a more general purpose setup that I think would be more appropriate in a tactical environment: badlandsfieldcraft.wordpress.com/2023/08/20/junk-on-the-bunk-an-effective-way-to-efficiently-carry-line-3a-and-3b-gear/ Another one on just the 3A gear: badlandsfieldcraft.wordpress.com/2023/05/01/junk-on-the-bunk-line-3a-gear-and-how-i-pack-it/ And another one that explains how I use the line system: badlandsfieldcraft.wordpress.com/2022/10/15/opinion-how-i-setup-my-equipment-using-the-line-system/
"Optics are a total game changer" May I quote you sir to the local boomer FUDD iron sight cult? 🤣 That aside doing your work with optics out to 500 is a great practical skill set to have and despite the weight the LPVO is remarkable effective piece of kit!
Do so at your own peril lol. I think the LPVO is really hard to beat as an all around effective optic. Operator skill is still the #1 factor in effective shooting, but a well set up optic can make a decent shooter down right scary. I prefer to have both irons and optics, why limit yourself? I think mastering everything to do with a rifle is what a Rifleman should look to do. My next video I’ll be shooting both the irons and optics so you’ll have to stay tuned for that!
@@BadlandsRiflemanTotally agreed on irons and optics work. Looking forward to it brother
@joegeezer6375 thanks, should be soon
On my 300blk American ranch rifle, the mag release is on the actual magazine like a 10/22. It’s really stupid because the little tab breaks off all the time. Never even got a round through it and the magazine tab broke and turned the gun into a single shot breech loader 😂
That’s crazy, I’ve never seen one like that before!
@@BadlandsRifleman bought it when they first came out a couple years ago and I think they’ve changed it since then. I bought it to turn into a bush rifle but I just decided to turn my .444 into one.
Hey brother awesome knife, I've subscribed to you, I've been making knives for a year, check my channel aswel it your wants
beautiful
Thank you!
Very well done and thought out. I have been hunting & shooting for over 50 years and I believe this is an excellent description of an all purpose rifle.
Thank you sir, what’s your favorite setup?
I have the umlindi and love it. I have been on the fence about the decker pack frame for a long time for the same use that you are implementing it. There are limited videos about the pack frame. Thank you for taking yours in depth. Great Video I subscribed because of it and your content.
The Umlindi is definitely a good pack too, I’ve got one as well but I have other packs that I like more in that size range. Thanks for watching and subscribing, take care!
Sweet knife and rifle for sure!! Thanks for sharing!
