KILLING BRANDONS AK - AKG47

Published on August 28, 2023
Duration: 20:11

This video tests the reliability and durability of the Brandon Herrera AKG47 by intentionally contaminating it with various substances including pre-workout powder, dirt, a ham sandwich, peanut butter, mayonnaise, hair gel, and Zins. The AKG47 demonstrated surprising resilience, with most jams being cleared by cycling the action or firing the next round. The primary failure point was when the trigger mechanism was physically impeded by the contaminants.

Quick Summary

The Brandon Herrera AKG47 was subjected to extreme contamination tests, including pre-workout powder, food items, hair gel, and baked beans. The firearm showed surprising resilience, often clearing jams by cycling the action. The main failure point occurred when contaminants physically blocked the trigger mechanism, preventing the hammer from striking the firing pin.

Frequently Asked Questions

How did the AKG47 perform under extreme contamination tests?

The AKG47 demonstrated remarkable resilience during extreme contamination tests. While substances like pre-workout powder and sticky hair gel caused initial jams, the firearm often cleared itself by cycling the action or firing the next round. The primary failure occurred when the trigger mechanism was physically blocked by the contaminants.

What types of contaminants were used to test the AKG47's reliability?

The AKG47 was tested with a variety of contaminants including pre-workout powder, dirt, a ham sandwich, peanut butter, mayonnaise, hair gel, Zins, and baked beans. These tests aimed to simulate extreme real-world or hypothetical scenarios to push the firearm's operational limits.

Can an AK-style rifle function after being contaminated with food or other substances?

Based on these tests, AK-style rifles like the AKG47 can often continue to function even after contamination with food items like sandwiches or peanut butter, provided the trigger mechanism is not physically impeded. Clearing the action is usually sufficient to resume operation.

What is the primary failure point for an AK-style rifle when heavily contaminated?

The primary failure point for an AK-style rifle under heavy contamination is when the sheer volume or stickiness of the foreign material physically impedes the hammer's ability to fall forward and strike the firing pin with sufficient force to ignite the primer.
