Sig M17 Full Auto

This video emphasizes the critical importance of reliability and repeatability in duty handguns, featuring insights from firearm instructors Mike Jones (Grand Thumb) and Nate (Trench Grenade). They stress rigorous testing with thousands of rounds, proper ammunition selection, and the need for consistent training, particularly with 9mm handguns which are currently in a 'golden age' of development. The discussion also addresses common caliber debates and the practicalities of parts availability and maintenance.

This video showcases a modified full-automatic Sig Sauer M17 in 9mm, demonstrating its high rate of fire and penetration capabilities. The host tests the firearm against various targets, including a ballistic gel head, a Smart car, and a Range Rover, noting its smoothness. A propane tank test, initially unsuccessful with the M17, leads to an ignition with an AK-47. The testing highlights the M17's effectiveness against lighter materials but its limitations against thicker barriers like a vending machine's second panel.

This video provides a clear, demonstrative comparison of 9mm FMJ versus R.I.P. ammunition performance. Utilizing a Sig Sauer M17 and slow-motion videography, the test shows the distinct impact characteristics of each round on a clay block. The R.I.P. round exhibits a significantly more destructive and fragmenting effect compared to the standard FMJ.

This video from Moondog 2A at SHOT Show 2026 features Kiyo from Leapers/UTG Pro showcasing new accessories for the MP5 platform. Key products include the UTG Pro MP5 SD Monolithic Handguard, designed with a 2.1-inch inner diameter for suppressor compatibility and M-LOK slots, and a new one-piece QPQ matte black monolithic charging handle. The accessories are highlighted for their US manufacturing in Michigan and are expected to be available in April or May.

This video showcases an AR-style rifle, identified as a Noveske, equipped with a drum magazine and a BSquare drop-in component. The demonstration, presented by PoorBoy Arms, highlights the rifle's capability for both semi-automatic and full-automatic fire, mounted on a tripod. The speaker, GMoney, expresses satisfaction with the setup, emphasizing the reliable cycling of the bolt carrier group during sustained fire.

This video demonstrates the performance of the Strategic Sciences MFMD suppressor on an AR-15 platform firing 5.56x45mm NATO ammunition. The presenter, experienced with NFA items and advanced shooting techniques, showcases minimal recoil and tight groupings during full-auto fire, highlighting the suppressor's effectiveness in suppression and recoil mitigation.

This video features Edwin Sarkissian, an experienced firearms instructor, conducting a unique bullet penetration test. He uses 12 Ozark Trail 12-inch cast iron skillets to determine how many rounds from various calibers and firearms, including 9mm, .45 ACP, 500 S&W Magnum, 7.62x39mm, 5.56mm, 5.7x28mm, and 12 Gauge slugs, can penetrate the cookware. The results offer practical insights into the ballistic performance of different ammunition types against a common household item.

This video from Edwin Sarkissian provides an expert-level demonstration of the Serbu BFG-50A rifle's capability against a railroad track. Sarkissian, a high-level firearms enthusiast, showcases the .50 BMG caliber's power with various ammunition types, including the specialized Raufoss Mk 211 Mod 0, highlighting its penetration through thick steel. The content offers valuable insights into terminal ballistics and the performance of heavy caliber rounds.

This video demonstrates a unique application of the X Products Can Cannon, a gas-operated launcher compatible with AR-15/M16 lowers, to launch an M67-style fragmentation grenade using .223 Blanks. Expert experimentalist Edwin Sarkissian showcases the process of loading and firing the device towards a frozen lake, highlighting the launcher's ability to hold the grenade's spoon in place until firing. The demonstration results in a significant explosion and ice shatter upon impact.

This guide details a ballistic test comparing a .50 Cal Spotter round against a 1.25-inch thick bulletproof glass panel using a Serbu BFG-50A rifle. The test, conducted by firearms enthusiast Edwin Sarkissian, demonstrates the significant destructive potential of specialized .50 BMG ammunition, highlighting differences in impact effects between incendiary spotter rounds and standard FMJ rounds. The expert-level demonstration emphasizes the importance of understanding ammunition types and their performance against protective materials.
