This video demonstrates the effectiveness of the Tailhook pistol brace in competition, highlighting its ability to provide stability for one-handed shooting and ease of use with a ballistic shield. It also clarifies recent ATF rulings regarding the legal use of pistol braces, confirming they are not considered stocks when not intentionally shouldered.
The future of firearm optics is shifting from traditional glass lenses to digital systems, offering enhanced visibility, information layering, and advanced features like thermal imaging and laser rangefinding. Digital optics, utilizing sensors similar to digital cameras, can see beyond the natural human visual spectrum, providing significant advantages in low-light conditions and for identifying targets. While regulatory hurdles exist, digital and hybrid optic technologies represent the next evolution in aiming solutions for firearms.
This review covers the Henry H-023-300 lever action rifle chambered in 300 Blackout. The rifle features a unique internal design, utilizing an AR-15 style bolt for its operation, allowing for effective suppression, especially with subsonic ammunition. It offers ambidextrous features like a tang safety and magazine release, and can be field stripped by removing two pins, revealing its AR-15-based bolt system. The rifle demonstrates good accuracy with both subsonic and supersonic 300 Blackout loads.
This guide details the installation of the Strike Industries modular chassis system for the FN PS90, focusing on improving ergonomics. The process involves disassembling the original PS90 stock and transferring internal components into the new chassis. While offering improved handling and accessory mounting options like a 1913 rail and M-Lock compatibility, it introduces a non-tool-less disassembly for the trigger pack compared to the original design.
This video reviews the Uintah Precision UP-10, a bolt-action upper designed to convert standard AR-10 or AR-15 lowers into precision rifles. The presenter highlights its compatibility with DPMS standard AR-10 lowers, its bolt-action mechanism with a 60-degree throw, and its sub-minute accuracy guarantee. The review covers the rifle's ergonomics, modularity, available calibers (including 6.5 Creedmoor, .308, 6 Creedmoor, 6 GT), and its performance with specific ammunition.
This video provides an in-depth accuracy assessment of the semi-automatic M249 SAW. The instructor, with apparent expertise in firearms, details the weapon's design and limitations as a light machine gun rather than a precision rifle. The testing reveals average group sizes of around 5 inches with both 55-grain ball and 77-grain match ammunition, regardless of feeding from a magazine or belt.
This video introduces the Fryettech Magnetic Buffering System (MBS) for AR-15 platforms, a novel approach replacing traditional recoil springs and buffers with rare earth magnets. The presenter demonstrates the installation process, highlighting its simplicity and comparing its performance to conventional systems. The MBS is noted for potentially reducing recoil and offering increased durability due to the non-wearing nature of magnets. While not a direct replacement for military applications, it's presented as a viable upgrade for competitive shooters and enthusiasts seeking innovative technology.
This video provides an in-depth review of the Precision Armament TiTrex modular titanium silencer, highlighting its construction, features, and performance. The presenter, with apparent expertise in firearms, details its upgradability, sound reduction capabilities, and accuracy potential on precision rifles. The review includes practical shooting demonstrations and decibel measurements, offering insights for enthusiasts considering high-end suppressor options.
This video discusses the Gatling gun, invented in 1862. It highlights that while an early form of machine gun, it's manually operated via a crank and doesn't meet modern statutory definitions. A modern Tipman reproduction chambering 9mm and using Glock magazines is shown, emphasizing its mechanical similarity to the original.
The Daniel Defense MUTE30Ti is a 3D-printed, weldless titanium suppressor designed for precision rifles. It is magnum rated for calibers up to 300 Winchester Magnum and features a hub and mini hub adaptable rear end. The suppressor is intended to reduce flash and recoil, enabling precise shots, and its lightweight, small diameter design easily clears optics. It comes with a lifetime warranty and is expected to be available soon.
The Sig Sauer M400 Forge is presented as a quality, full-featured AR-15 designed for new buyers seeking an affordable yet reliable platform.
