This video discusses the Tier One Kinetics AR-15 rifle, highlighting its construction from reputable parts like BCM uppers and BCGs, and Guesley rails. However, the primary critique centers on its high price point, estimated to be over $3,000, which the reviewer deems 'delusional' when compared to established brands like Guesley, Danny, Noveske, LMT, and Knight's Armament in the $2,000-$2,400 range. The justification provided by the seller, including a lifetime warranty and direct owner contact, is deemed insufficient to warrant the cost.

This video compares the practical accuracy of a standard AK-47 pattern rifle against an RPK variant, specifically the Zastava M72. The RPK, with its heavier barrel, longer stock, and integrated bipod, is theorized to offer improved stability and accuracy. The comparison involves shooting both rifles at 100 yards to analyze group sizes.

This video demonstrates a concrete penetration test comparing the AK-47 (7.62x39mm) and the M16A1 (5.56x45mm NATO). An experienced shooter highlights the differences in projectile impact and concrete fragmentation, with the AK-47 showing more explosive results due to its larger caliber's momentum. The demonstration emphasizes safe firearm handling and proper range setup.

This video features an expert-level accuracy test comparing budget and high-end AR-15 platforms. Instructor Elliott Delp analyzes whether a higher price point consistently correlates with superior accuracy, using MOA measurements to quantify performance. The findings suggest that factors beyond cost, such as ammunition and shooter skill, significantly influence group sizes.

This video details a comprehensive accuracy test of premium AR-15 platforms including Geissele, Daniel Defense, ADM, LWRCI, and LaRue. Conducted by Elliott Delp and Coleman Ashworth (Sparky), the test employed strict controls like a single shooter, consistent ammunition, cold barrels, and the same optic to objectively compare performance. The ADM UIC emerged as the most accurate rifle in this specific test.
