Published on November 24, 2024
Duration: 1:00

This video explores the speed of transitioning from an M4 carbine to an under-barrel M26 MASS shotgun compared to a handgun. Initial tests show a transition time of 2.58 seconds, comparable to handgun transitions. Optimizing the process by having safeties off reduced the time to 1.79 seconds, demonstrating the potential for rapid secondary weapon deployment.

Quick Summary

Transitioning from an M4 to an M26 MASS under-barrel shotgun can be as fast as, or faster than, a handgun transition. Initial tests showed 2.58 seconds, optimized to 1.79 seconds by pre-disengaging safeties.

Frequently Asked Questions

How fast is the transition from an M4 to an M26 MASS shotgun?

In timed tests, the initial transition from an M4 to an M26 MASS shotgun took 2.58 seconds. After optimizing the process by disengaging safeties beforehand, the transition time was reduced to an impressive 1.79 seconds.

Is transitioning to an under-barrel shotgun faster than a handgun?

The video suggests that transitioning to an M26 MASS under-barrel shotgun can be comparable to, or even faster than, transitioning to a handgun, especially when the process is optimized for speed.

What are the key components used in the weapon transition test?

The test features an M4 Carbine, likely chambered in 5.56x45mm NATO, equipped with an M26 MASS under-barrel shotgun (12 Gauge) and an EOTech optic. A shot timer is used for accurate measurements.
