Griffin Armament Optimus, Alpha, and Resistance Suppressors - SHOT Show 2016

This video provides a comprehensive guide to selecting and understanding suppressors, emphasizing key considerations beyond just sound reduction. The instructor highlights the importance of flash signature, durability, mounting systems, and weight. He advises on choosing a .30 caliber suppressor as a versatile starting point and discusses specific models and their performance characteristics, offering practical advice for prepared citizens.

This video provides an expert analysis of short barrel AR-15 performance, featuring a custom 7.5-inch AR-15 pistol. The host, demonstrating high authority and detailed component knowledge, uses a chronograph to collect empirical data on muzzle velocity for both suppressed and unsuppressed configurations. The results are statistically analyzed and compared against a standard 18-inch rifle barrel, highlighting significant velocity loss with shorter barrels.

This video showcases two firearms being added to a gun bag buildout. The first is a 300 Blackout AR-15 pistol giveaway gun featuring an AT3 Spear XL upper, Griffin Armament Optimus suppressor, AT3 Alpha Green Dot optic, B5 grip, SB Tactical brace, and Odin Works upper receiver. The second is the presenter's personal Shadow Systems MR920 pistol, customized with stippling, goon tape, and a threaded barrel.

This guide details the installation of an SB Tactical collapsible brace onto a Sig Sauer MPX-P, a modification discussed by Tim from Military Arms Channel. The process involves securing the brace to the firearm's 1913 rail using a Torx screw. This modification is presented in the context of optimizing a 'get home bag' setup and navigating NFA regulations regarding pistol braces versus Short-Barreled Rifles (SBRs).

This video features a critique of a home defense AR-15 build by former Navy SEAL Jeff Gonzales. Key takeaways include the importance of a suppressor for indoor use, the critique of an overly complex sling, and recommendations for reliable optics. The discussion highlights the trade-offs of short-barreled rifles (SBRs) for home defense and emphasizes practical gear selection over complexity.

This guide details the tool-less field stripping process for the Beretta ARX-160, as demonstrated by a Beretta factory representative. It covers the quick-release barrel, stock, trigger group, and bolt assembly, emphasizing ease of maintenance. The representative highlights the rifle's modularity and ambidextrous features, noting its current military availability with future civilian plans.

This entry details the Fostech .50 Cal Drum Magazine, designed for Barrett M107 and 82A1 rifles, featuring a 20-round capacity and billet machined aluminum construction. It also touches upon the Fostech Rader .308 rifle. The information is presented with high technical focus from a manufacturer representative.

This video from ARFCOM News details a ballistic gel test of Remington's 158gr SJHP .357 Magnum ammunition fired from a 16-inch Rossi Model M92 carbine. The test highlights how carbine-length barrels significantly enhance .357 Magnum performance, achieving velocities comparable to some .300 Blackout loads and demonstrating substantial penetration and expansion in ballistic gel. The analysis touches on terminal ballistics theories and the unique behavior of high-velocity pistol rounds fired from rifles.
