Brandon is now running around his own shop yelling "Where AK50?!?!?!?".
Didn't you hear Matt killed him ? No wonder Matt was acting weird in the intro must be his first time 🤔
😂
"Welcome to the most potentially lethal game of RUclipsr Tag, where random Guntubers try to steal the AK-50 before Brandon Herrera finds out who has it and steals it back first. The game... is ON!"
HERE AK50 HERE AK50!!!
Oh dude, that would've been a phenomenal intro! I hope they incorporate that idea into something coming up!
"We took his channel too, you'll see me over there.."
Brandon's channel "HEY-Y'ALL DONUT HERE!"
Yeah, Donut took it now, all the gun tubers need to have some kinda air soft battle Royale over it now
lol
Allah only god
Alcohol was involved when they came up with this
Donut came in the seperation.
Bro's intros are now award winning cinematics 😂🔥
For real
calm down

Few things I love about a 50. No recoil, super cheap to shoot & easy to find ammo, no need for ear pro, and an easy light weight platform to carry around in the woods all day. 😀
Hate *😂
evil 50 cal
Almost got me for a second because I do come across insane comments on the internet lol.
Also, possibly the best caliber for comfortable all-day CCW carry.
The only problem is that it is not a fast firing gun like a flintlock musket
England: "We banned most guns."
Australia: "We banned most guns."
Canada: "We banned most guns."
'Merica: "We don't think the AK-47 has enough stopping power, make it shoot anti aircraft rounds."
Typical european
*singing loudly* GOD BLESS A'MURICA LAND THAT I LOVE.......
"Don't worry, it's not full auto"
'Merica: Is also banning guns & Canada is allowed 50 cal.

@dirtpounder
That's God Emperor to you citizen.
Zaku II machine gun is that you?
The AK-120 is real
The ultimate Brandon/Scott collab.
The sound of the charging on the AK50 is amazing. It could become an iconic sound clip for videos and video games.
It could be used in next expendable movies. Hopefully it will be better than last one.
That sound is the inspiration of boners around the globe.
Second only to the Pancor Jackhammer cocking sound
If Brandon could actually get his AK50 implemented into games, he could get funding for actual production of AK 50s, not only that, but he could do more research and development to revise and make it even better.
The sound of it shooting sounds like the Terminator II theme
I think Matt’s treating this channel like his back up channel and it’s so much better, I feel like he’s just raw dawging this channel and it’s AMAZING
eyo? he's been what???
Imagine going to war with America, you’re decked out in gear from head to toe, trekking through what used to be Texas, just to get blown away by the big boogaloo that is the Herrera 50

That intro is exactly as wonderful as I was hoping when you were filming it.
ABSOLUTELY!!

That really blew his hair back.
"where in the F@*%! is my AK 50!!!" says Brandon as he holds a glass of whiskey walking around his shop. 😂

@@johncarter6238 Am I wrong, but AK-50 still looks like Barrett with gas pipe?
@CaffeineCaffeine I knooow, man. I just still have a hope to see real AK-50, not barrett. I hope Brandon will do it once upon a time.

So cool that Brandon is lettings other people do videos on the ak-50. Years in the making I'm glad we get to see it get used
We just need Ian from forgotten weapons on it now
@@readman010 I WOULD LOVE TO SEE THAT VIDEO :D
Today I watched a video about the AK-50 on Brandon Herrera's channel. I have been following the creation of this weapon from the very beginning. I know all the nuances and subtleties. It's nice to see you on the AK-50 channel too!
I am Russian, I am delighted with the work of Brandon and his team. I want to see a PM (Makarov pistol) with a caliber from desert eagle. It seems to be a .357 Magnum caliber.
think bigger my friend, desert eagle is chambered in .357 magnum, .44 magnum and .50AE. it would be cool to see a PM chambered in .50AE
@@davidkellner7372 I am not a weapons expert, so I wrote "probably a 357 caliber", and it is difficult for me to communicate through a translator, RUclips does not allow me to copy someone else's comment, I had to translate through a screenshot of the comment. + the translator can translate with errors and change the meaning of my message. I could think more broadly and suggest a 152 mm caliber PM

My life just got perfect
It’s the best 50 Caliber AK ever created
it is a work of art
I would love to see you design a gun from the ground up, finance the parts, machine work, etc to make something that's never been seen before that fully works. Please. I'll wait.

This is probably the most Texan video I’ve seen in a while. As a Texan I feel very proud about this.

you can hear the reverberation for so long after the shot. it sounds like an actual crack of thunder. brandon did a sick job with this build.
That's the announcement made to the whole region
Gotta love muzzle brakes. They tame recoil alright... but the muzzle blast is absolutely Biblical.
Mere: why the hell does my traditional blanket have a head sized hole in the middle?!

Guntube is so wholesome, genuinely love the cohesion amongst you guys and the way you uplift each other through sharing success like this. Gettings to see the years of development of the ak50 as ive followed Brandon for it finally to be ready and end up on the gun channel that picked up where FPS Russia left off is wonderful.
Could have been wholesome if the people behind it, especially Brandon, weren't far right monsters.
@Efreeti imagine actually believing this sentiment. You're probably one of those goobers who thinks wendigoon is a bad person. 2a support doesn't mean they are far right extremists lol. They are gun loving Texans who are economically conservative, and it's clearly shown on social politics they may disagree with some stuff but are far from the bastions of hate and vitriol that actual problematic right wing figures are.

I love you showing the suppressing fire power of an AK 50. Seriously a more stable platform than expected.
I got kind of emotional when the video came out, my wife made fun of me and i said... I feel like i got taken along for the ride in the development of--if nothing else--a very cool piece of history. I watched from the beginning, i missed few if not no ak50 update video... I feel like i was a part of it to some degree.
We are here for you brother.
Same dude. I shared it to my buddies and coworkers.
bruh calm down. you watched. you didnt participate
I was so invested in the seriousness of the intro that when he opened the casket and called her a gold digger I instantly choked on my drink from laughing so hard.
Alright this is easily the best intro yet.. And take it from me, i watched every single video he's ever made to make a compilation of when he picks up hot rounds 🤣🤣🤣
when will the compilation be released?
@@clutch2315 already on my channel. Has been for a looong time loo
@@clutch2315 already has been for a long time lol
Lemme guess, 10hrs straight of Matt picking up hot brass
I agree
I think the spring on the Barrett is so large because it's a long recoil action. The spring has to stop and cycle the barrel and bolt. The AK 50 is gas operated and has less cycling mass, so the spring can be smaller.
The Barrett is short recoil but your intuition is correct. You have much more control over how much energy is put into cycling the action in a gas-operated gun.
The AK-50 has better recoil control because of the way its action works but it’s very heavy.
The Barret was made to be a .50 cal that was feasible to carry with you in the field. So the recoil will be more harsh but it is a more simple action, easier to clean and more lightweight.
AK-50 is still incredible from a fixed position. And the recoil control would make it better at destroying light vehicles like trucks and enemies behind cover just because the recoil is less harsh.
Biggest problem for the AK-50 is probably barrel flexing though for accuracy.
Mikey’s glorious mane flew graciously as he shot the 50 pistol hahaha. @15:02
I love watching Matt play with Brandon's monster!
🤨
……
So glad the AK50 was finished before Brandon got in Congress xD
He kinda didn't have a choice
"But, my lord... is the AK-50 legal?"
"I will make it legal."
AYOOO HES JOINING CONGRESS?!

@@WarFoxThunder Well, the election is in like a week. Well, it's the Republican primary, but in that part of Texas that is effectively the same thing. He's challenging RINO Ernie Gonzales.
Omg. The intro is NEXT LEVEL. I love the Eastwood callback.
That opening scene was absolutely beautiful
Imagine being an ant, just living your best life, hauling leaves, minding your own business, and suddenly being **fucking decimated** by a 50 BMG.
Idea for the next Public Range Day, "The AK-50 Experience at The Desperado". So many people will want to fire that thing.
Honestly it’s a liability to them and idk how comfortable they’d be having a lot of strangers who’s safety is in their hands fire it
@@thannydevitos2332that’s why they’re trained professionals for this
@@emdioswildadventures5898 This is still just aa prototype, I'd imagine no outsider will fire it untill a finished product is ready

the real video we've all been waiting for, not whatever those bots spam XD
Only problem is that it doesn't look like an AK, well uts just a prototype, now they have to design it
Just needs furniture. It REALLY looks like an AK.
@@canadianthought no it looks like a Barrett, just look at them side by side. There are differences, but if you show an AK to a guy who knows nothing about guns he'll immediately say "that's an AK". As I said this Is just a prototype, they wanted it to work so they didn't care about looks
where ak 20 mil
I have to say, I am very proud of Brandon for sticking with it and ending up with an incredible product. Everything about the ak-50 just feels so much cooler than any other .50 cal out there.
It's testament to their R&D that Matt can confidently partially disassemble this gun, reassemble it, then fire it, all on camera.
Anyone who knows how to disassemble and assemble AK can do it. I've seen a little differences from old AK in the disassembling, like extraction of the spring. Brandon do a fine thing scaling up the AK without major changes of construction.
all “research and development” consists of direct copying to a larger size and eliminating identified deficiencies through trial and error.
This is a little different from what is usually called “research and development,” but by the way, I’m now talking to a person who most likely considers Edison an inventor.
By far this is the best off the best video that you made... I lovit.big hug from Portugal.
the sound of the shutter is amazing
daamn! i stopped watching him for a few months, and now when i come back, his intros are both visually and storywise better 98% of known media in the last decade. Keep up this great work!!!!!!!
"...his intros are both visually and storywise better (than) 98% of known media in the last decade."
Sounds like someone has a little crushie poo. 😉
Just the fact that this thing seems to have less recoil than the Barrett shows how fucking amazing Brandon and his team is.
yea and how you can hold it like a normal rifle. Militaries gotta be already hitting him up about the AK50.
I loved it at 9:17 when the cameraman realised the hot brass coming his way LOL :D
4:40 That sound brings back VCR nostalgia.
15:40 - Broooooo. Matt for real looking like an 80ies action hero these days. Ages like fine wine.
Giving off all the RAMBO vibes
15:53 it's Rambo! 🙄😏👍
I love that Jenna is out there taking an active part in these videos.
they need adult supervision.
The intro is worth it! Fav channel, may it never be erased.
During the "slo-mo" shots in Brandon's video there was some wicked oscillation of the AK50 rifle.
That difference in recoil spring is wild.
All the pressure venting and bolt weight. The cycle is slow, but that's part of what makes an AK such a great platform, they don't climb
Two very different guns. The Barrett is recoil operated and the recoil spring needs to handle the bolt moving under the full force of recoil. In the AK or any other gas-operated gun, the gas system only needs to harvest enough energy to operate the action so you don't need a beefy recoil spring (which is really kind of a misnomer in that case).
@@KyussTheWalkingWorm Not just the bolt; the entire barrel of the Barret recoils back before the bolt opens, so the spring has to dampen that as well. To anyone who has not held an M82A1: They weigh about 18lbs and most of that weight is the barrel itself.
I dont think so. The Barret coil spring isn't that bigger than the AK50. It just has a bigger spiral diameter. But the size of the steel material pretty small compare to the AK50 🤷
Love the good the bad and the ugly skit at the beginning😂
My favorite movie of all time.
That intro brought me BACK bro. The Good The Bad and The Ugly. One of the best westerns of the history of the universe.
0:02 That spade was so close to hitting his hand I flinched
The way Mikey's hair flew back when he shot the pistol had me rolling! 😂😂😂
The muzzle flexing in that slow mo after 15:55, man.
yep, barrels flex.
Brandons video with the slow motion guys is wilds seeing how much this thing flexes
Yep, just like almost all AK's. AK's flex fore, aft, and in the middle. You can see this in many very slo mo videos of regular AK's. They are much like a helicopter in that they are an assemblage of highly machined parts flying in very close formation.
Matt: Brandon you know how I let you use my range for free, yeah I’m going to need to barrow the AK-50 😂
Lmao
Omg 😂
🤙🏻🤣

I said this on Brandon's video too, but the sound that thing makes is unbelievable. Easily the coolest sounding 50 I've ever heard.
The echo is crazy. Almost sounds like 3 rounds firing. I thought it malfunctioned on the first shot.
Love it.
9:50 the sounds of the firing, the action and the hits are beautiful!
I remember when Brandon started building the AK50. Glad he didn't give up and made it happen.
I love how Brandon sent his guy as security
Dude Matt, I haven't watched your channel in maybe like 3-4 years (sorry), but my god did your arms get so frickin big, like holy shit it's the first thing I noticed when watching this video... Right on... It reminds of that motto of yours that you told us when you were in your garage/barn on Off The Ranch all those years ago, it was something along the lines of "Every little thing you do today, will make you a better you tomorrow", I see you've kept that motto to hearth when it comes to them guns you're showing off there lmao.
Cause you was incarcerated
The Good, the Bad and the Ugly... one of my all time favs! So glad you're bringing it back Demolition Ranch 😁🔥🔥🔥
I love that even after all the years on RUclips Matt is still just a goofball having fun with guns
Can't wait to see the DOD adopt this as their next service rifle! Congrats Brandon on completing his dream!
10:55 “I’m spooning a .50 cal; I could kill a building.” - Archer
Now this is a true super blaster. My hands would be trembling from all that power for weeks.

That intro was awesome
Remember the spring on a kalashnikov is only to return the bolt. All the recoil is held by the lugs until the rod unlocks it.
Lot depending on that lug. Yikes 😳
that intro bring back childhood memories to watching westerns with my dad
It's crazy how much the AK-50 flexes and deforms when firing.
I know most .50BMG guns do this, but the AK-50 does it _a lot._
That is one amazing piece of machinery right there. Well done so far!
“Don’t mess with Texas” works well with the AK50
the intro is a complete CINEMA 😲
The barrel harmonics in the super slow motion from Brandon's video are outrageous!!
"We killed him and took it. Brandon Herrera is dead." That bit made me laugh like an idiot. I love unexpected turns into darkness in my comedy.
