I'd like to thank Robert Evans for not only having me as a guest on his podcasts, Behind the Bastards and It Could Happen Here, but also for taking time out of his very busy schedule for our Q&A here on InRangeTV.
I hope we can work together more in the future, it has been truly a pleasure.
You can find Behind the Bastards at a number of distribution points, but here are a few:

Being against No Knock Warrants should be common ground for all Americans.
Proof right there that you can actually be a well balanced, knowledgable thoughtful person and be into guns.
That was a fairly restrained opening from Robert, I'm impressed!
Not even a reference to hitler in the intro. Robert must not have been feeling well.
I was expecting a "whhhhhhhhhaaaattttttsssss shooting, my gunnnssss!"
Is it me or does Robert look like Rasputin in this video??
@@charlesm.2756 That's just Robert. Looks like he just hitchhiked out of Siberia. His default look.
That bit about the Red Dot on a Garrand made me laugh, just at the idea of it.
The PCC for defence against other people is more than just getting a proper hit on the aggressor. A full power round could also kill bystanders behind.
Well behind.
Imagine Robert Evans throwing a kettle bell with a rifle slung on him in desert brutality yelling “what’s shooting my Hitlerrrrrrr”
You guys have forced me to think more broadly about current events many times over and there's not a better duo conceivable to discuss the horror and implications of the current moment in Ukraine.
Similarly, the particular brand of levity you two bring to the table is fitting and greatly appreciated.
I spend so much time trying to get people to think more broadly in all sorts of ways and it's so fucking hard to get people to think outside of the box, or at least their little box
Karl, your collaborations with Robert have been such a breath of fresh air in the environment of current events and general firearm culture. Thank you both for creating such level headed and informative content.
crowmeat is a fire name
Every time I see Robert speak he looks 50% more like Rasputin
Man, I'm so glad this channel is demonetized because I heard at least a 100 words that would instantly demonetize this video if it was. This enables an open and frank conversation without fear of corporate overlords.
very True, I was just watching some videos about investing and they wanted to talk about whats going with a possible war with Russia but they wouldnt say W-A-R (spell it not say it) because they could get demonetized. That made me very sad, so I watched some uncensored and demonetized Karl haha. Finance content on youtube makes the most in ad revenue so they have the most to loose.
Interestingly enough, KB also tested a Barrett with the same pressure load, and that gun also turned into scrap metal, so really Serbu's rifle design isn't any less safe than the premium .50s
I feel like Karl needs his own podcasting room. I wouldn't mind hearing him s***post about tech, guns and life.
I very much like the arizonian savannah he is filming many of the q&as.
That would be based as hell
Doesn't he have a whole desert for that? And his own stick-table, of course.
Dude I've been binging Behind the Bastards hard ever since the collab! It's sooooo good!
It's a rough show to binge. I needed to take several despair-breaks. :D
@@toppersundquist right? It's a lot to digest.
@@toppersundquist some of the ones like the one about Karl May are relatively light hearted. The ones about L Ron Hubbard were funny, as the guy was such an over the top conartist.
But yeah, it's definitely a heavy podcast. I think that Robert does a good job of balancing it out with his comedian friends coming in cold.
The one about the guy who invented Sea Monkeys is one of my favorites because of how completely absurd it is.
Great show. I discovered both of you separately. I've loved the crossover.
Robert much respect! Long time fan. Imagine you don’t necessarily need to hear it but I want you to know lots of folks got your back in the Midwest.
Thanks Karl and Robert for the wonderful info you all put out. I’ve been listening/watching both of you for years.
It’s really good to see the expertise on display when discussing these issues.
*Robert. Evans is his last name.
Wow that discussion was amazing, proud to be a supporter of the channel.
kentucky balistics blew up a Barrett with the same overcharged round.. shrapnel went through the dummy torsos shoulder [dime size] and into the chest [stopped by rib]
my thoughts? "dangerous things are dangerous." i would be exceptionally careful around "boutique" ammunition.
I always think it is crazy to buy ammunition at gun shows like that. Bullets sure, primers, maybe.
Powder and loaded no brand/unsealed boxes of ammunition? Hell no.
@@bannedbycommieyoutube5time920 it’s like buying a packed boutique parachute
Hell yeah, I love both of yall for different reasons and I'm so glad to see you together. Just like Atun Shei. You are constantly surprising me and making awesome connections between communities.
This is a great collaboration love love love this
Glorious. Glad to see you two combining forces. Keep up the good work lads.
Tuchman has an amazing gift for presenting History. Guns of August is quite good, but so are her books on the Zimmerman telegram, and the Euro states lead up to WW1 (Proud Tower).
Edited to add: hunting with suppressors - if you have multiple tags, often you can get off a second shot at a second animal with a suppressor before they run where you couldn't without... as far as dogs - we don't often do this here (running dogs on deer is illegal in every state I know of) but some people use dogs to TRACK a wounded or injured deer that may require a dispatching.
Not to mention The March of Folly, which is more or less her answer to that same question. One thing that's stuck with me from Guns of August, since Karl talked about recklessness, is that she makes exactly the opposite argument in one instance: she suggests that, had Austria *immediately* invaded Serbia rather than taking counsel and enlisting allies (I think the phrase she uses is "trumpeting wrath"), it's very likely that Russia's response would have been "well, okay, fair enough, you went after the guys who killed your boy, but we need to talk about what happens next because there's no way we're letting you keep Serbia."
The Proud Tower **ROCKS**. Better than The Guns Of August, I'd even say.
“Notes from China” is a quick but very worthwhile read.
“Stilwell & the American Experience in China” is probably the best book about the realities of WW2 in that region and why things went the way the did after WW2
Robert looks like the shrieking hysterical 20's I.e. this decade,personified.
Keep up the good content lads, both of ye.
20:52
This is the most important point. Even in the best case of the seizure of all military activities, maybe even an overthrow of Putin - even then the entire conflict in Ukraine is a massive loss already. A loss of lives, of freedom, a loss for democracy, and so much more.
Overthrow Putin will work great just like
Saddam Hussein in Qaddafi. You have been reading George Bush and Obama Foreign policy.
You guys came up with so many great future episodes 🤣🤣
Keep it up boys all three of these meeting of the minds have been great 👍🏼
"I have more experience evading fire than engaging in a tactical enviroment"
I hope Karl can put some of this to use in stage design. I know he already intentionally picks presentations that make sense but I think this would be very cool to discuss a "no/less range restriction" course of fire.
Love to see the crossover between these two.
Nice work 👍
Always interesting,instructive and pin point. the elements that you are using is always great.
Hes NOT thought provoking. Not brilliant.
Well this just made my day!
Absolutely thrilled yall continue to do great work together
And get robert out there for brutality!
“Ordinary Men” is a good book to read that applies to what you guys were talking about at 31:25
Awesome and thought provoking
I've listened to some of the older 'behind the Bastards" podcast. They are very well researched. Man, even as someone with a good knowledge of history, they are depressing. For example, I knew the Belgium Congo was bad, but Robert had so much more detail on just how bad it was.
My grandfather was an MP in WWII and his job wasn't to go get conscientious objectors it was to track down and arrest rapists and murderers to bring them to military justice.
I appreciate the perspective that you and Robert brought to this talk. Can we have similar things in the future?
Thanks for the great content.
Glad you enjoy it!
I knew Robert was kinda into firearms but his knowledge is far above a lot of "gun nuts" that I know.
Thanks, guys! Good stuff 🤙
Loving the Robert collabs
Very good Q&A.
So happy to see two of my favorite content producers working together!
🙌
Watch smarter ppl
Yet more interesting and sensible content and ideas about being able to agree on what should be even if many can't agree on all aspects of what is. 👍
Keep doing the thing and informing people in a clear and entertaining manner guys.
Much appreciated!
Sensible. Like. Remove ppl from a society separating them on beliefs. Seems like that would lead to a country divided and then perhaps.... civil war.
Excellent collab
There 100% needs to be a collab between these two and atun shei. And then a match afterwards
yeah that guy would be a good guest on BTB
Incredibly interesting content! I really enjoyed this.
Crap. Watch smart ppl that don't talk in circles.
Robert having a bunch of corkboards with newspaper clippings everywhere is better than I could have imagined
Hi Karl
This was a educational informative video
Keep up with the excellent quality content bestest from UK
Thank you
Fyi, hunting in the UK, a rifle suppressor is defacto a requirement as PPE to protect hearing, it is also an improvement for taking multiple deer/animal in a herd
33:30 has to be the most terrifying example of the banality of evil I've ever heard.
Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland by Christopher R. Browning is worth reading as it more or lists the method of turning "normal" men into mass murderers
This is the best crossover of all time.
That last question was a breath of fresh air.
Whoa! Virus! I saw parts of that movie when I was a kid and it terrified the crap out of me! Always wanted to rewatch it as an adult but didn't know what it was called!
Thanks for the great Q&A!
Hell yeah, loving this crossover!
Great Q&A! Lots of food for thought.
Love this duo. Wonderful collab
Glad you enjoyed it
Law enforcement made me uncomfortable long before I became an adult. I have never walked away from a situation with an officer feeling safe or respected.
Yoooo this is rad!
“Prospect” is worth watching. I randomly watched one afternoon and was pleasantly surprised.
Having read Cracked for years it was very surprising to see this pop up!
Robert Evans looks like Rasputin
Hey Karl, thanks for taking the "Big tent" approach to defensive rights. This and other "big tent" channels have been very helpful to many people I know who have become first-time gun-owners in the last couple years.
What I love too is how he's big tent, but still willing to always speak his mind. The only people he excludes are those who seek to exclude others.
I've never been happier than the day I found out that InRange was so fuckin based that Karl would end up on BTB (or was it it could happen here idk sheit)
@@donovanchilton5817 OH YES that's right. thanks lol
Both actually
Time for another Robert collab, I'd say!
Bismarck remarked that to choose to go to war is like committing suicide because of fear of death.
But Bismarck chose to go to war (or manipulated others to go to war) to succeed in his politics. (so another one who preached water but drank wine)
@@nirfz Very true: except he forced others to declare war on Prussia. He also kept his wars short. And in his last war he was against taking away Alsace and Loraine, as he knew it would have led to another much worse war, and was overruled. Post 1872 he concentrated on domestic policies and famously said: "The whole Balkans are not worth the bones of a single Pomeranian Grenadier". No, Bismarck was no fool. His wars were no vanity projects.
@@scipio10000 Yes, i didn't challenge his intelligence, just his ethics and morality. He lied and intrigued and changed the wording of messages he was to relais, in order to achieve his goals, pressured rulers into wars, and in the franco prussion war argued for the shelling of civillians in paris.
It was easy for himto say that about the balkans, as there was enough buffer country between the balkans and the country he chose to dedicate his work to.
@@nirfz Hey, I did not say that he was not a Bastard: just a clever one.
@@scipio10000 fully agree!
I went on a rant about no-knock warrants to a Trump loving conservative the other day, and actually turned him around on it. Mainly by pointing out the stuff that could have been ANYONE. The dude crawling in the hall begging for his life could have been anyone. The "gun" that he got the cops called on him for anyone over the age of 18 could buy at your local Walmart, or Amazon, or just about anywhere that sells them, it's not regulated does not have to go through a FFL. In the eyes of the law it's as much a gun as a toaster is a gun. But I also brought cases where they just barged into wrong freaking houses. One family their infant had 3rd degree burns from a flashbang landing in the crib. Wrong house. Cops said oopsie daisy and faced no consequences. By the way guess who pays to fix your front door after cops break through it looking for someone who's never lived there? If you said me, I pay for my door getting smashed in by incompetent police. You'd be right, cause cops aren't held accountable for anything.
Hey! My question!
Also, would love to hear the Billy the kid episode y'all described, I hope that happens!
Second prospect. Saw it previewed by some of the sci fi shorts channels. Great little film.
I think the PCC question is less min maxing, and more “I have a budget, and is there any reason to buy a PCC instead of an AR?” ARs are so cheap now, under 400, and it’s hard to recommend other choices without a reason. With barrel length laws being what they are, PCCs can’t be smaller, they don’t have less recoil, and they aren’t cheaper anymore. We’re just left with quieter. Similar to the sks question. Sure it does the job, and if they still cost 200, sure. But they are about 400 now.
I feel like they addressed that. While the 5.56 is certainly not a recoil monster, an AR-15 can still be an intimidating gun for some people. Even for folks who are fine shooting a rifle, they may find the PCC more fun to shoot. Better to have a gun you enjoy and therefore get good practice with than one that just collects dust in the closet.
Other reasons I can think of is that pistol ammo tends to be cheaper and easier to reload than rifle rounds, shared ammo/mags with a go-to handgun, and many indoor ranges don’t allow rifle calibers.
@@SynchronizorVideos particularly good point on the ammo price! Being able to shoot more is a solid reason for getting a PCC.
A LeMat with a barrel in the 6 o'clock position like the Chiappa Rhino!
Should take care of the heavy hammer spring and would look insane!!!
That's just crazy enough to be awesome. Add a folding bayonet like some of the Lefaucheux revolvers and it's perfect
@@cchampion6176 A real Rhino!
And chamber it in .500 or .460 S&W!
Nah, 5.7 👀
@@cchampion6176 how about 7.5? :-D
I was not aware of Robert and his work, but I will be rectifying that immediately! Thanks for another interesting hour, Karl.
Glad you enjoyed it!
The A team was technically AC556(select fire version) not mini 14
Though you are correct, you didn't say "Um, actually" so I can't give you a point
@@walterriblethegreat Um actually I was trying not to be the "um actually" guy
I'm by no means a crossbow expert, used to be an archer but I've never shot one. I'm just trying to frame this in my mind - 150m with a crossbow would certainly be possible, though the amount of drop I'm sure must exist there would make it potentially very unethical - though I guess poachers often don't mind as much about such things. I would say that using a compound or other type of hand bow is in no way easy or long ranged, if you can hit a target well enough to hunt past 40-50m you have been doing some serious practicing!
can confirm. bow archer here: bullseyes on 40m was hard, still consistently possible. hitting the target at 80m was like throwing a stone in an arch. possible but far from consistent. 150 is not something you could do >accurate< with a bow. a short an heavy CB bolt on the other hand is, as @James Healy said, quite possible.
Robert Evans looks like a cave man. Also The comment Karl had about MPAWS ( Javalin missiles, stinger missiles) during his behind the bastards seems super relevant now.
Re Virus (the movie) for reasons lost to time the haunted attraction I work at in season ended up with a stack of scenery props from it. Thin fragile and nightmare to use blown plastic wall panels for the most part. But they come in useful for a surprising number of sets. Once. Till the vandals.. I mean our lovely customers.. have their blundering way with them.
I love Behind the Bastards way to go Karl!!
It's actually really weird to see a gun channel on RUclips that tries to stay apolitical just saying "fuck it, I need to take a stand now". Kudos to Karl for doing so though, I really respect it
My understanding is that the Amir Locke situation was authorized for a no knock but police actually knocked. I don’t see how the conversation wouldn’t implicate all warrant service not just no knocks especially when one is sleeping. I guess you could do day/night limits for warrant execution or require a time between knock and entry but then you also run into exigent circumstances where no warrant is required at all.
The police didn't announce themselves until after they were inside. There's body cam footage of the Amir Locke shooting and the police used a key to silently open his apartment door and go inside. A few seconds after going inside they start yelling police. Possibly, after they saw him on the couch but, it's hard to tell.
Any way you want to spin it, there is no reason for it. I personally have been involved in two situations of police going after someone else in the house and fortunately for me, both times the police handled it right. Once the police were after a man in my house suspected of a shooting (and yes, he did it. He shot a friend of mine but only a minor injury) and came and got me at my work. They asked lots of questions as if they were going to go in (where are the entrances and exits, weapons in the house, any dogs, that sort of thing) but never did. Instead they staked out the house and when he got up to leave in the morning, they swarmed in and took him peacefully.
The second time I heard a knock on the door. I went and opened it and was quite surprised to find four officers standing in a 2x2 square holding ballistic shields. Behind them a plainclothes detective asked to see a man that was staying with me. When I told them he was upstairs in bed, they came in. The detective lightly pushed me back to the side while the other four went upstairs and got him. No guns drawn, no shots fired, no violence of any kind. Simple. If no one there is a threat, they get their man and leave. Had shots rang out, they are fairly safe behind their shields and could retreat, setup a perimeter and call in swat.
@@jemt1631 I think the point is that: When knocking is lightly tapping on the door as you open it, there isn’t a difference that matters. Without a requirement to wait at the door, all warrants are effectively no knock. A quarter second between knock and entry doesn’t do anything useful.
@@mageyeah7763 Yeah thats a good point. Though, in the Breonna Taylor situation the cops did wait at the door before breaking down the door. They were banging on the door in the middle of the night but, didn't announce themselves as police. According to her boyfriend, he asked who was at the door but received no response. The cops involved seemed to be untrained for the situation or just bad at their job, though. One of the cops even put two rounds through the ceiling into the apartment above. Only letting certain officers with proper training execute search warrants seems pretty important as well. Personally, I think police officers should have direct accountability to the people in the communities they serve.
If your going to do a soldier of fortune episode, i highly recommend looking into Charles George Gordon, aka Chinese Gordon. He would make for several good Behind the Bastards episodes.
I think he already has a multi-part series about soldier of fortune magazine, but I'm pretty sure it's a few years old by now
@@alloypaulson7520 They did Soldier of Fortune at a live reading with David X. Cohen, if memory serves.
25:40 I'm hearing Joshua Gram in the back of my head. "Just a chore"
obviously the solution to the suppressor hunting question is to use a bullpup,
When can we expect the collaboration on a machete bayonet for the wwsd AR-15
anyone know what Roberts pin Means? i gather its some form of Anarchism but i cant find what its from
bologna pirates
I think that I have the same shirt that Karl is wearing.
It's a great shirt
*Taurus Execs watching video* "Modernized Lemat...LeJudge. It sells itself"
YEEEESSSS
Get Justin King (Beau of the Fifth Column) on one of these.
Finally found time to sit and watch this…
I absolutely agree that the 2A community needs to open its arms to all groups and encourage people who are perhaps dipping their toes in the water for the first time. Not only is it everyone’s constitutional right but it’s also pragmatic to welcome them with open arms instead of paranoia and suspicion because you don’t approve of their lifestyle or background.
It’s no secret that the media and anti-gun coalition wants to manipulate certain groups into fearing guns and making it easy to pass restrictions. By embracing everyone and letting them see the realities of the 2A community and gun ownership will only help dissuade their fears and encourage them to stand with us to fight gun control.
Limiting our ranks and keeping gun rights as a partisan issue only leaves the 2nd Amendment in a very precarious position.
That last question...
Night hog hunting with dogs would be improved with a suppressor
He also just did a video with a true barret...... Same load that killed the serbu TOTTALED THE BARRET
So by that logic better not buy a barret either
I assume Serbu bought the Barret to demo it was nt just their gun
@@johngriffiths118 do not know..... Who bought it is a bit moot. The barret failed under same preasures, only the barret failed with much more gusto. I just read my reply.. I do not intend for my reply to come off as arrogant or ignorant I am sorry if it does, it is not intended to.
Robert looking an awful lot like Rasputin...
Speaking of Billy the Kid, did you watch Old Henry yet, Karl?
m1 carbine the best PCC
Regarding the Serbu RN50, see Kentucky Ballistic's recent test with the same round in a Barrett. You might be surprised what happens to the LOT more expensive gun.
It blew up in an even more spectacular way.
Karl, speaking of the Hard Question at the end there. When it was brought-up on your recent-ish Primary and Secondary appearance let me just say how much I appreciate just how... how shall we say this... 'Fiesty' you were on the topic, and how you consistently kept at it like a terrier while the rest of the panel seemed to wanna ignore it.
First off, I like "Virus" as well, but my question is, what is a "Slap Round" I get that it might be a tempered / self loaded one, but is seems like a specific term you seem to use
Hey! Not sure if you found the answer to your question, but SLAP is actually an acronym! It's a specific design of armor piercing round. Wikipedia can cover the basics better than I can.

I grew up loving body horror. Virus was fun if a bit cheese yes haha
lesson in most srial killers: do not abuse your kids
I think the end of WW1 shows just how stupid and pointless the entire war was. Like a bunch of dudes in suites with monocles on sitting around a table discussing ending the war and someone asks well when should we stop shooting at each other and some dude looks at his watch and says. "How's 11 o'clock next Tuesday sound to you?" And some other dude with mutton chops says "my word isn't that 11th of November? Good show my good man 11/11/11? Yes, tell the commanders to keep the men shooting and killing each other until then!"
I love to see a continuing collaboration between you two. I see you guys at opposite ends of the political spectrum, but you can come together and agree on rights of the average citizen versus the state. I think we could all learn from this.
I don't think Karl is on the opposite end of the political spectrum from Robert. IMO they're both anarchists; slightly different types perhaps, but Karl is not a capitalist.
@@bjf10 Yeah, it's pretty clear that Karl advocates for anarchism. He's pretty consistently critical of hegemonic powers, both in the form of the state and in the form of massive corporations.
@@randymagnum143 only with people who don't understand the difference between personal and private property. ;-)
@@randymagnum143 nope.
Really appreciate these intelligent discussions. I consider myself very progressive and am coming around on gun control issues more and more. You guys give me hope that we can put aside our differences and make positive changes in our laws.
I’m especially appreciative of the comments from both of you regarding no-knock warrants. As long as I’ve been aware of the issue, I’ve always encountered any debate on it to be an “us vs them” situation where those on the right instantly strawman the arguments for abolishing the practice as attempts to get more police officers killed because since we’re liberal we must hate cops (in their minds). That’s not to say there wasn’t intelligent and respectful debate out there, they just were not the debates I’d find myself in or observing.
