BCA Side Charging Handle!? (Bear Creek Arsenal TEST) #civtac #gun #fullautofriday #demoranch

This video tests the accuracy difference between a short 7-inch barrel AR-15 (CMMG Descent) and a long 24-inch barrel AR-15 (Bear Creek Arsenal) at 100 yards. Using the same Triton Orion 1-10x LPVO on both platforms, the test reveals that while the 24-inch barrel is theoretically more precise, both configurations achieved similar group sizes at this distance, with the 24-inch barrel yielding approximately 1-inch groups and the 7-inch barrel producing 1-inch and 1.5-inch groups.

This video compares the terminal ballistics of a .22LR subsonic hollow point round against a specialized exploding pellet from an airgun. Both were tested for penetration and cavitation in a clay block. The .22LR demonstrated significant expansion, while the exploding pellet showed impressive internal cavity creation due to its explosive charge.

This video details a process for comparing the velocity differences between two 18-inch 6.5 Grendel barrels from different manufacturers (Bear Creek Arsenal and Diamondback Firearms). The presenter outlines a methodical barrel swap procedure, emphasizing the importance of consistent components and proper torque. The testing involves chronographing two different bullet weights (123gr SST and 90gr Varmageddon) to illustrate how barrel variations can affect muzzle velocity.

This guide details the emergency reload procedure for the FN FAL rifle, as demonstrated by an instructor from Polenar Tactical. It covers the steps from bolt lock to re-engagement, emphasizing efficient manipulation of the paddle magazine release, the rock-and-lock insertion method, and the use of the left-side charging handle. The instruction highlights fluid weapon manipulation and economy of motion, crucial for maintaining combat readiness.

This video presents a humorous skit emphasizing the critical importance of wearing eye protection at the shooting range. It visually demonstrates a handgun malfunction and uses a relatable, albeit exaggerated, scenario with a spent casing to highlight the potential dangers of inadequate eye safety. The creator, experienced in firearm handling and tactical gear, reinforces this essential safety message.

This video features a 'bulletproof' test where a tree is used as a ballistic medium to test various calibers from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The Civilian Tactical host, demonstrating high-level firearms expertise, shows that even powerful rounds like .50 BMG can be significantly stopped by a dense tree, with none of the tested rounds achieving a complete pass-through. The test highlights the surprising terminal ballistics of different ammunition types against natural barriers.

This video from Civilian Tactical explores the concept of using a human body, simulated with ballistic gel, as a suppressor. The host fires a Derya Arms .22 rifle directly against a ballistic gel head and block, noting the shot sounded 'dead silent.' The experiment demonstrates the penetration depth of a .22 LR round through the simulated head and into the gel block.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test on a Belgian M1 steel helmet, evaluating its resistance against various calibers from birdshot to .223. The test, conducted by Civilian Tactical Host, shows that the helmet is not bulletproof against common handgun and rifle rounds like 9mm and .223. The host's energetic and demonstration-oriented style, coupled with expertise in tactical gear, provides a clear assessment of the helmet's limitations.
