It depends heavily on the state where you live. I live in WV, I can pretty much own anything I want. We have constitutional carry here. No license or permit required to carry concealed. If you want full auto you’ll need a permit from the ATF and many $$$$$ everything else isn’t usually a problem unless it’s an SBR or sawed off shotgun.
As long as you're not convicted of a felony or a domestic disturbance you can own just about anything. Silencers, rifles with barrels shorter then 16 inches (18 inches if a shotgun) and full autos made before 1986 can be owned, but need a $200.00 tax stamp and registered with the ATF. Thats the basics of federal law. Certain states have alot more restrictions similar to European countries. .308 (7.62×51) semi auto rifles are my favorite. Ar-10, Sr-25, FAL, SCAR, etc...
My favorite firearm is my grandfather's Remington Model 700 in .30-06. He bought it in the mid-1950s and gave it to me when he died. A lot of people came out of the woodwork when he died to try and take that gun, so it was transported to me, across state lines, in the middle of the night with another vehicle being used as a decoy.
Shotguns FTW. Super-versatile, used for protection, work and fun. Some shotguns come with interchangeable barrels for specific purposes like short barrels for home defense, long smooth bore barrels for small game/bird hunting/sport shooting, and rifled barrels for sabot rounds useful for medium range big game hunting. Benelli M2 is my favorite shotgun
My favorite weapon to shoot is an M1 garand, It was my first rifle that I bought (well had my dad buy with my money when I was 12 after 2 years of cutting grass for the neighborhood) so I grew up shooting it and it has become second nature for me. I'm in Florida so as long as you aren't a felon you can get almost anything if you have the money.

@@JRock3091 Wellll...the 2nd Amendment applies to the US, not Ukraine, and the US isn't going to be invaded by a hostile military force anytime in the foreseeable future. Here in the US, the threat we'll face will be from _domestic_ government at some level, not a foreign government, or organized criminals like the Mexican cartels. In other words, whereas in Ukraine the citizenry needed to fight _with_ government forces against invaders, here in the US we're more likely to need to fight _against_ government forces. That might have some effect on the weapons and training we would choose to acquire.

As a naturalized US citizen, I understand and appreciate why our right to own and bear arms is protected by the Constitution. Since the beginning of time, every ruling government has the innate desire to rule through tyranny and to take away individual rights over time. Our freedoms are protected by citizens willing to protect themselves from criminals and politicians.

Just a couple points to clear up: AR stands for Armalite Rifle, not assault rifle. The AR15 is NOT a military rifle, it was developed by Armalite as a. 223 caliber sporting rifle. The M16 (and variants) as well as the M4 (and it's variants) were developed from the AR15.
And the AR was first sold to civilians. It wasnt until later that the military (USAF) picked up the military variant. So if anything, the military is using a civilian style rifle ;)
I served in the US Army and one of my MOS’ is 45B small arms repair. Basically I fix every firearm in the US Army inventory. I have seen every type of guns in the Army except one. I have never seen an AR15 in the military. My civilian friends have them, but not the Army
I love my Benjamin AR. I'm not a tall woman and with hardly any kick I really enjoy firing this gun. I would recommend this one for anyone. Plus it's affordable. And it's a good investment.

@@dangerous8333 You don't have to know them, you just have to watch them and see how they vote.... The democRATS don't seem to know a HELL OF A LOT about the Constitution......! And, they make up a big part of the American citizenry.
@@dangerous8333 Well when the president says that banning certain weapon systems and such is not in contradiction to an amendment that says "the right of the people to keep and bear arms will not be infringed" it tells me that either even the president himself doesn't understand the constitution, doesn't care about it, or... doesn't know what the word "infringe" means. Actually, I think all three are true in his case, Biden, as he defends that statement by assuring us that you couldn't buy a cannon back in the 1700's so all the regulations are clearly common sense ... when you could in fact buy a cannon, or anything else.
You're the first man from England that i've heard..that realized that "the right of the people to keep and bear arms" was specifically included as the final "check and balance" for the government. Sadly, many elected officials would like to see it done away with. It's not hard to imagine why.
There are a lot of us from England that believe in the right to have arms. We just fall under two categories first those of us who have left Britain because of the stupid laws. If you ever visit the gun ranges of Central and Eastern Europe you will meet thousands of us!!! And those who are holding on in the UK with their long barrelled pistols, air gun licences and 22lr AR's. If they publicly speak out in defence of gun rights in the UK the police come and take their guns and licences so people stay quiet (just like what happened to the guy who runs the english shooting youtube channel). The police seriously look at social media etc, it's like 1984. It's kind of sad but it is what it is.
Except it has literally nothing whatsoever to do with being a "check on the government". That's something that you fools invented out of whole cloth in the last hundred years. The Amendment says EXACTLY why the right to bear arms is protected. Because "a well regulated militia is necessary to the security of a free state." Not because "I might want to overthrow the government if I'm butthurt that my candidate lost the election."
@@SRosenberg203 Are militias legal in US? Most militia organizations envisage themselves as legally legitimate organizations, despite the fact that all 50 states prohibit private paramilitary activity. Others subscribe to the "insurrection theory" which describes the right of the body politic to rebel against the established government in the face of tyranny. read that last sentence. so yes, while it is not "technically" mentioned in the 2nd amendment, the definition of "militia" provides you the power to overthrow a tyrannical government...
@@chriswright9083 The militias of the 1770s have been replaced by the National Guard of each state. So if we want to get really technical, the entire second amendment is completely archaic, since the entire purpose for which it was written no longer exists. That is why gun fetishists have had to come up with new justifications for why it exists, and have invented their reasoning that the Founders were intentionally giving them the right to unilaterally decide that an elected official who didn't vote for is a "Tyrant" and rise up to depose them with violence.
@@chriswright9083 technically speaking, any able bodied person from age 17 to 70 who isn't a public official or military is the United States Militia. Some of us who recognize that like to get together and train ourselves for disaster preparedness. We help with relief with natural disasters such as earthquakes, storm damage, wildfires, etc. We have some who train as first responders and are trained in first aid. We are trained in combat in case we have to defend our homeland from invaders, which is not a likely scenario, but we're trained just in case.
“ Every American Should be Armed “ Yes, but I feel “ The Second Amendment “ should be a “ Human Right “ that Everyone in the World should have because it is paramount to keeping Tyranny at bay.
It is a human, God given right. The difference between the USA and every other nation is, other governments deny people their rights and are willing to shoot them to do so.
Ironically here in N.Ireland we've got by far the most liberal gun laws in the UK, I've had a pistol since I left the army in the late 1980s (a SIG 226 at present) my firearms cert also covers a full bore semi auto rifle and a shotgun, IMO the firearms regulations in the rest of the UK are insane and here in NI there's been no-one killed with a legally held weapon since 1978.
Honestly as a NYer I feel like a brit sometimes with these insane laws. But I can imagine there is a large minority of freedom loving people there as we have here in NY.
Here in the midwest of America (Ohio). Pass a Background check (takes a few minutes). Buy weapon of choice. Drive to range. Pay to shoot 20 dollars and hour.. Or join a club for few hundred a year...shoot anytime you'd like at a beautiful, safe, outdoor range with multiple distances from 25 yards to 500 yards (mine is 200 yards)
I think it's really sad that Britain citizens allow their government to control them and not have weapons you not really a free country if you're not as armed as your military. If another country wanted to take over Britain all they have to do is beat the military. Once you get through the United States military you going to be met with an even greater force 127 million Americans with over 400 million firearms. It is so sad that Britain citizens cannot defend themselves.
This is very true. That's why the GOP is scared that if they don't tow the line some of Trump's followers will come to their house gunning for them. That's why. even though they wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan. 6, they now downplay it as a typical tourist visit. And never mind the cop who was killed by a rioter carrying a blue lives matter flag. Just ignore that completely.
As a new viewer from the US, I appreciate your respect for our laws and such. I like their list but I would prefer something like this, no particular order: 1. AR-15 platform in 5.56, either 12.5" or 14.5" barrel (Knight's Armament SR-15 is one of the best civilian battle rifles on the market = 14.5") 2. Remington Model 870 or Benelli M1014 in 12 gauge (the latter is no longer available to civilians because of federal laws) 3. A reliable 9mm handgun, my personal favorites are the Glock 17 and Sig Sauer P320 4. A reliable 7.62x51 dmr, probably an SR-25 or M110 SASS variant (for reaching out beyond the AR's range) 5. Lastly, the classic and versatile Ruger 10/22 (excellent for closer precision shooting and taking down game)
With respect, battle rifles generally are .30 caliber and larger. So while 5.56 is a great round it is not a "battle rifle" per say. Unless that term has been refined in the last 20 years or so.
@@robertfairchild8299 That may very well be the case, I have just noticed modern militaries are switching the standard issue rifle to a smaller caliber like 5.56 or 7.62x39 which is why I called it a battle rifle. The SCAR 17S would be an excellent choice for a true battle rifle, you can clear a building if you have to while a 16.25in or 20in barrel and .308 rounds allow you to easily reach out to 800 yards with a good round.
As a cpl holder I choose to carry a glock 19. I think a person should be able to defend themselves by any means necessary within reason. Disarming the public doesn't disarm the criminals.
I smiled when that was their first gun. It was my first gun (still have it, of course), so it holds a special place in my heart. Also inherited my dad's 12 guage shotgun that he got as a boy in the 50's. (So old it doesn't have a Serial Number.)
The English were successful at colonization partly because their settlers were taught it was their personal responsibility to defend and provide for themselves. The Spanish, French, Dutch, etc had restrictions on their settlers and their allowed capabilities and that's partly why expansion was so difficult for them. Weapons are apart of our heritage, ya might say.
AR-15. They ought to call it the Burger King Rifle, because "You CAN have it your way." Want something that can reach out to 1,000 yards? Swap out the 5.56 NATO upper for a .224 Valkyrie one, get some mags and a good scope, and you've got a rifle that's just getting warmed up at 600 yards. Want something more hearing-friendly for home defense? Swap out the upper for one in .300 Blackout, add a can, a red dot sight, and a weapon light, and you can make any home intruder regret his victim choice - deeply. And switching between the three is as simple as pushing out the takedown and pivot pins, swapping the upper receiver, and replacing the pins. Each upper has it's own sight system (high-mag scope for .224 Valkyrie, 1-6x LPVO for 5.56, and red dot sight for .300 Blackout), so you don't have to re-zero. And that doesn't take into account the many other options to accessorize with various combinations of slings, stocks, pistol grips, etc. I've seen ARs described as, "Legos for adults. Perhaps, but you're far less likely to step on an AR upper in your bare feet. ;-D
So hard to comment on other people's governments when guns are just ingrained in our culture. I could not imagine a life without firearms. After reading our history and reading the Constitution and the Bill of Rights quite literally scares me to think of all the United States without guns and what the outcome will be with our first amendment and the rest of our rights
The Czech Republic is one of the few other nations standing up for citizens' rights to self-defense, as both a human right and also as a response to everything they went through in the 20th Century.

Couldn't imagine government Oath Breakers stupid enough to think their life is more important than any citizen they represent.
You are still one us because of what you just said. You have the wherewithal to know it's dangerous for you to have them but in your own way will protect us that have them.
Hope you get better. I love that you choose not to have guns. It really shows that you value your own life and the fact the you want Friends and family to have guns means you value their lives too. Good luck in life
i hope that doesn't stop you from enjoying firearms. you can always rent at most indoor ranges, or even leave your firearms with trusted family if you ever want to make that investment. i say this half joking, but think about how much more depressed you'd be if you couldn't get one when you needed it. i remember in california we thought we wouldn't be able to get any more AR's so i bought one with just enough time that i could still do the 10 day waiting period and still take possession before the end of the year. turns out they could sell them with weird grips or with fixed magazines, but it wasn't a smooth transition and we weren't sure if there would be an approved version.

I've actually been impressed with my Remington Savage 30-06. $350. Right out the box with the 3x9 scope at 100 yards, it was to the right only a half inch! To test it, I sighted it to 200 yards. It only took 4 rounds to dial it in.

I don't know how many rounds we've run through that thing, but it's probably been thousands over the years and it's still reliable.

Hey Mate, My all time favorite bolt action weapon is the old 30-06 caliber round. Very deadly accurate at long distances, easy access to ammo almost everywhere(even California), and has a huge bullet weight range that will let you kill anything on the planet.

Not to mention, a full auto does not make a gun more lethal... That is training.
@@scottapache5041 the military didn’t “rip off” the AR, Armalite submitted the M-16 variant of it’s existing AR-15 for bid when the military was looking for a new rifle & won. Then found themselves unable to produce enough rifles & was forced to sell out to Colt. Still, you’re right in that it was a civilian design before being modified for the military.
I liked them all, but I have owned an 8mm Mauser and a Mosin, and between the two... the Mauser was German Quality with a very smooth bolt, but the Mosin was even more accurate and very cheap to supply with ammo. The ammo is sold in bandoleers at guns shows at super cheap prices, the Mauser ammo about 40 dollars for twenty rounds and up. The Mosin is Russian thinking at its military best easy to clean, disassemble, on press on the trigger and the bolt falls out clean it re insert you are on your way.
When I lived outside of Seattle 20 years ago, one sporting goods store chain was selling Mausers for $50 each. They had crates of them. I kick myself sometimes for not buying at least one, but the ammo is so expensive now it would bankrupt me to bring it to the range.
I gotta say I stumbled across one video a few weeks ago and have been hooked. Love the videos my man. I wish my own countrymen were as knowledgeable about our constitution as you are 🙏
You were a “Fookin gympie gunner!” As a SAS Sargent Major told me.... I trained with the RM in Bovington.. good guys!!... a bit crazy though!.... I love the people of the UK!!!…
5.56x45mm NATO does not "bounce around" inside the target. Neither does .22LR; that's pure Fudd lore. What 5.56 often does is fragment in a target - depending on the ammo selected. 5.56 has a pretty high velocity, and unless you're using steel core (green tip) or AP (black tip, if i recall), the round is typically just lead jacketed in copper. Lead is a soft metal, and when soft metal impacts flesh at high velocity, the hydrostatic shock rips it apart surprisingly fast at closer ranges. Now, if you were hunting at close range, you would select a harder round with a hollow point/polymer tip, as you will get deeper penetration, better expansion, better energy transfer, and a more pronounced wound channel. if you are planning to shoot from longer distances, like military engagements 300+ yards, you want that softer bullet, because the bullet will have lost quite a bit of velocity, and to get better expansion at lower velocity, you want a softer round. Regardless of which ammo you select, a bullet isn't going to "bounce around," because if it had the energy to do so, it's probably gonna either bloom into a big fragmentation pattern and stop quickly, or zip right through the body and keep going. If it somehow doesn't fragment or exit the body, what happens is the elasticity of the flesh will stretch with it a bit, and then snap back, trapping the bullet. The bullet will no longer have the energy to overcome the resistance of the flesh, and so cannot possibly "bounce around." I have no idea how many times this Fudd lore has been debunked, or if there will ever be a time when people stop perpetuating this nonsense. Your body isn't a empty steel oil drum where a bullet can just ricochet around with nothing to slow it down between impacts. If you doubt me, go ahead and watch countless slow-mo videos of bullets hitting flesh (gotta love Paul Harrell's famous "meat target") or flesh-like mediums such as ballistic gel targets. Bullets can fragment, tumble, get captured, or punch through flesh and bone. They do not "bounce around" like some sort of pinball of death. Pure horse shit Fuddery.
I'm not big on the .22 cal. I would throw in a bolt action .30-.06. I'd go to the Remington 870 magnum over Mossberg 12 gauge. I would love to see my brothers and sisters in England be able to arm themselves properly.
Man, RIP to Barry Elliott from IV8888. He was a helluva guy. I drove down to Jonesboro while he and Eric were still there at Moss together. Never got to talk to Eric, but Barry was awesome.
We're too busy screaming against a plastic pistol and extolling the virtues of an M1911A1 and M1A. Although, the Ruger is OK with CCI Stingers at killing, cleaning and cooking a rabbit at 50 meters. ;) As for suppressed, meh. I'm of mixed views there, largely because I'm nearly deaf in one ear, can't hear worth a damn with the other.
Whats nice is the mosin shoots 5 rounds but arch Angel makes a conversion kit that allows the mosin to be a 10 round detachable mag. Total cost is around 200 bucks when I bought it. And I did just find your channel and love it. Its nice to hear someone talk good things about Us. The whole world seems to want to blame all their problems on us. Thanks again for a great channel. 👍🍹
I have the Archangel stock too. I sniped mine on ebay for $95 from someone that can't spell (listed it as the Archangle). Added a muzzle brake, Timney triger, trigger shoe, Rock Solid Industries Scope mount, 28 power scope, bipod, and a bent bolt handle. Duracoated the entire thing at home. Under $700 for a totally pimped out sniper.

QUESTION - Favourite weapon and why? Also can someone explain to me how your gun laws/owner rights work please
It depends heavily on the state where you live. I live in WV, I can pretty much own anything I want. We have constitutional carry here. No license or permit required to carry concealed. If you want full auto you’ll need a permit from the ATF and many $$$$$ everything else isn’t usually a problem unless it’s an SBR or sawed off shotgun.
As long as you're not convicted of a felony or a domestic disturbance you can own just about anything. Silencers, rifles with barrels shorter then 16 inches (18 inches if a shotgun) and full autos made before 1986 can be owned, but need a $200.00 tax stamp and registered with the ATF. Thats the basics of federal law. Certain states have alot more restrictions similar to European countries. .308 (7.62×51) semi auto rifles are my favorite. Ar-10, Sr-25, FAL, SCAR, etc...
My favorite firearm is my grandfather's Remington Model 700 in .30-06. He bought it in the mid-1950s and gave it to me when he died. A lot of people came out of the woodwork when he died to try and take that gun, so it was transported to me, across state lines, in the middle of the night with another vehicle being used as a decoy.
Shotguns FTW. Super-versatile, used for protection, work and fun. Some shotguns come with interchangeable barrels for specific purposes like short barrels for home defense, long smooth bore barrels for small game/bird hunting/sport shooting, and rifled barrels for sabot rounds useful for medium range big game hunting. Benelli M2 is my favorite shotgun
My favorite weapon to shoot is an M1 garand, It was my first rifle that I bought (well had my dad buy with my money when I was 12 after 2 years of cutting grass for the neighborhood) so I grew up shooting it and it has become second nature for me. I'm in Florida so as long as you aren't a felon you can get almost anything if you have the money.

As a naturalized US citizen, I understand and appreciate why our right to own and bear arms is protected by the Constitution. Since the beginning of time, every ruling government has the innate desire to rule through tyranny and to take away individual rights over time. Our freedoms are protected by citizens willing to protect themselves from criminals and politicians.

RIp Brandon Dunnegan's grammar
he never learned "alot" isn't in the dictionary.
its actually "a lot" with a space. alot isn't a contraction its a unfortunately common typo.
Just a couple points to clear up:
AR stands for Armalite Rifle, not assault rifle.
The AR15 is NOT a military rifle, it was developed by Armalite as a. 223 caliber sporting rifle. The M16 (and variants) as well as the M4 (and it's variants) were developed from the AR15.
And the AR was first sold to civilians. It wasnt until later that the military (USAF) picked up the military variant. So if anything, the military is using a civilian style rifle ;)
Unnecessary apostrophe
Dude I ask so many people if they know what AR stands for just to mess with them I love their reactions when the find out the truth 😂
I served in the US Army and one of my MOS’ is 45B small arms repair. Basically I fix every firearm in the US Army inventory. I have seen every type of guns in the Army except one. I have never seen an AR15 in the military. My civilian friends have them, but not the Army
I love my Benjamin AR. I'm not a tall woman and with hardly any kick I really enjoy firing this gun. I would recommend this one for anyone. Plus it's affordable. And it's a good investment.

@@dangerous8333 its a good assumption
@@dangerous8333 Well when the president says that banning certain weapon systems and such is not in contradiction to an amendment that says "the right of the people to keep and bear arms will not be infringed" it tells me that either even the president himself doesn't understand the constitution, doesn't care about it, or... doesn't know what the word "infringe" means. Actually, I think all three are true in his case, Biden, as he defends that statement by assuring us that you couldn't buy a cannon back in the 1700's so all the regulations are clearly common sense ... when you could in fact buy a cannon, or anything else.
RIP Barry. He was a great guy. Eric at Iraqveteran8888 has kept him a good legacy. He had a good sense of humor.
You're the first man from England that i've heard..that realized that "the right of the people to keep and bear arms" was specifically included as the final "check and balance" for the government. Sadly, many elected officials would like to see it done away with. It's not hard to imagine why.
There are a lot of us from England that believe in the right to have arms. We just fall under two categories first those of us who have left Britain because of the stupid laws. If you ever visit the gun ranges of Central and Eastern Europe you will meet thousands of us!!! And those who are holding on in the UK with their long barrelled pistols, air gun licences and 22lr AR's. If they publicly speak out in defence of gun rights in the UK the police come and take their guns and licences so people stay quiet (just like what happened to the guy who runs the english shooting youtube channel). The police seriously look at social media etc, it's like 1984. It's kind of sad but it is what it is.
Except it has literally nothing whatsoever to do with being a "check on the government". That's something that you fools invented out of whole cloth in the last hundred years. The Amendment says EXACTLY why the right to bear arms is protected. Because "a well regulated militia is necessary to the security of a free state." Not because "I might want to overthrow the government if I'm butthurt that my candidate lost the election."
@@SRosenberg203 Are militias legal in US?
Most militia organizations envisage themselves as legally legitimate organizations, despite the fact that all 50 states prohibit private paramilitary activity. Others subscribe to the "insurrection theory" which describes the right of the body politic to rebel against the established government in the face of tyranny. read that last sentence. so yes, while it is not "technically" mentioned in the 2nd amendment, the definition of "militia" provides you the power to overthrow a tyrannical government...
@@chriswright9083 The militias of the 1770s have been replaced by the National Guard of each state. So if we want to get really technical, the entire second amendment is completely archaic, since the entire purpose for which it was written no longer exists. That is why gun fetishists have had to come up with new justifications for why it exists, and have invented their reasoning that the Founders were intentionally giving them the right to unilaterally decide that an elected official who didn't vote for is a "Tyrant" and rise up to depose them with violence.
@@chriswright9083 technically speaking, any able bodied person from age 17 to 70 who isn't a public official or military is the United States Militia. Some of us who recognize that like to get together and train ourselves for disaster preparedness. We help with relief with natural disasters such as earthquakes, storm damage, wildfires, etc. We have some who train as first responders and are trained in first aid. We are trained in combat in case we have to defend our homeland from invaders, which is not a likely scenario, but we're trained just in case.
“ Every American Should be Armed “
Yes, but I feel “ The Second Amendment “ should be a “ Human Right “ that Everyone in the World should have because it is paramount to keeping Tyranny at bay.

It is so sad that Britain citizens cannot defend themselves.

This is very true. That's why the GOP is scared that if they don't tow the line some of Trump's followers will come to their house gunning for them. That's why. even though they wanted to hang Mike Pence on Jan. 6, they now downplay it as a typical tourist visit. And never mind the cop who was killed by a rioter carrying a blue lives matter flag. Just ignore that completely.
As a new viewer from the US, I appreciate your respect for our laws and such. I like their list but I would prefer something like this, no particular order:
1. AR-15 platform in 5.56, either 12.5" or 14.5" barrel (Knight's Armament SR-15 is one of the best civilian battle rifles on the market = 14.5")
2. Remington Model 870 or Benelli M1014 in 12 gauge (the latter is no longer available to civilians because of federal laws)
3. A reliable 9mm handgun, my personal favorites are the Glock 17 and Sig Sauer P320
4. A reliable 7.62x51 dmr, probably an SR-25 or M110 SASS variant (for reaching out beyond the AR's range)
5. Lastly, the classic and versatile Ruger 10/22 (excellent for closer precision shooting and taking down game)
With respect, battle rifles generally are .30 caliber and larger. So while 5.56 is a great round it is not a "battle rifle" per say. Unless that term has been refined in the last 20 years or so.
@@robertfairchild8299 That may very well be the case, I have just noticed modern militaries are switching the standard issue rifle to a smaller caliber like 5.56 or 7.62x39 which is why I called it a battle rifle. The SCAR 17S would be an excellent choice for a true battle rifle, you can clear a building if you have to while a 16.25in or 20in barrel and .308 rounds allow you to easily reach out to 800 yards with a good round.

This video is bringing back so many memories. I miss Barry.
The English were successful at colonization partly because their settlers were taught it was their personal responsibility to defend and provide for themselves. The Spanish, French, Dutch, etc had restrictions on their settlers and their allowed capabilities and that's partly why expansion was so difficult for them.
Weapons are apart of our heritage, ya might say.
AR-15. They ought to call it the Burger King Rifle, because "You CAN have it your way." Want something that can reach out to 1,000 yards? Swap out the 5.56 NATO upper for a .224 Valkyrie one, get some mags and a good scope, and you've got a rifle that's just getting warmed up at 600 yards. Want something more hearing-friendly for home defense? Swap out the upper for one in .300 Blackout, add a can, a red dot sight, and a weapon light, and you can make any home intruder regret his victim choice - deeply.
And switching between the three is as simple as pushing out the takedown and pivot pins, swapping the upper receiver, and replacing the pins. Each upper has it's own sight system (high-mag scope for .224 Valkyrie, 1-6x LPVO for 5.56, and red dot sight for .300 Blackout), so you don't have to re-zero.
And that doesn't take into account the many other options to accessorize with various combinations of slings, stocks, pistol grips, etc. I've seen ARs described as, "Legos for adults. Perhaps, but you're far less likely to step on an AR upper in your bare feet. ;-D
ARs are the Call of Duty classes of the gun world. It's as simple as 1-2-3 and it's a whole new gun.
"Have it your way." Lmao. You aren't wrong there. Mods galore.
I have stepped on a 5.56 casing or two in my bare feet, however -- just as painful as lego after having boots on for 18+ hrs
So hard to comment on other people's governments when guns are just ingrained in our culture. I could not imagine a life without firearms.

Hope you get better. I love that you choose not to have guns. It really shows that you value your own life and the fact the you want Friends and family to have guns means you value their lives too. Good luck in life
i hope that doesn't stop you from enjoying firearms. you can always rent at most indoor ranges, or even leave your firearms with trusted family if you ever want to make that investment. i say this half joking, but think about how much more depressed you'd be if you couldn't get one when you needed it. i remember in california we thought we wouldn't be able to get any more AR's so i bought one with just enough time that i could still do the 10 day waiting period and still take possession before the end of the year. turns out they could sell them with weird grips or with fixed magazines, but it wasn't a smooth transition and we weren't sure if there would be an approved version.

I had to laugh... I’m watching this video in my pickup... in my pants is a Glock 17, beside me is an AR 15 shorty with an EoTech, under my back seat behind me is a shorty 12ga, a precision .308, and a suppressed 10-22. Welcome to rural America.
Damn son, i dig it, but dnt all those guns get in the way? Glock and 300blk pistol with holosun seems the perfect balance 4 me. 2 each his own though, seems like times r about 2 get really bad for us. And the rest of the world is going 2 watch and make youtube videos about it
@@BB-ly3dh not at all. The Glock is in my pants every day. The shorty AR sits between the seats nicely. Everything else is under the back seat. The .308 is for long range (coyotes as I live in cattle country), and the 10-22 is nice and quiet for squirrels without making noise.

I've actually been impressed with my Remington Savage 30-06. $350. Right out the box with the 3x9 scope at 100 yards, it was to the right only a half inch! To test it, I sighted it to 200 yards. It only took 4 rounds to dial it in.
I completely agree blew my mind 30-06 wasn't mentioned...one of the best guns EVER built
Othing against 30-06 I would choose .308. The ability to utilize a common nato caliber is a huge advantage.
@@joshualehman685 I would argue that there are just as many 30-06 rounds in the hands of hunters, and being able to use a NATO round is not that important, unless you're chasing an enemy using that ammo.
@@kenoday7562 I don't doubt the number of hunting rounds. Potential availability in longterm survival scenarios you are more likely to find 7.62x51 nato. In reality what you have is all you can truly rely on.
I go with .308 because it's what I have and components wise a little more efficient by 5 grain +/-
@@joshualehman685 I agree. No reason to swap a 30-06 that you own for a 308. If you want both, go for it. I'd LOVE to have an AR10. It would go along with my Remington 30-06 and ATI AR15 ....

RIP Barry ✌️You legend
This channel is very underrated and deserves much more than 103k
I've had a Ruger 10-22 since I was 12 years old- my first real gun that my dad gave me on my birthday. Great starter rifle, and I still use it frequently today as a 27 year old Army officer- it's an inexpensive plinking rifle that you can use to keep your skills up. My wife also loves to shoot it. I don't know how many rounds we've run through that thing, but it's probably been thousands over the years and it's still reliable. I love my AR-15, but it gets a bit expensive to buy ammo for it when you fire hundreds of rounds. Also love the Mosin-Nagant- I don't own one (it's on my wish list), but my Dad has one he bought for $97 back in the '90s, and it's a great range rifle.
Would like to see some vids or your take on the weapons you used in the Royal Marines. Guns, vehicles, aircraft, etc.
I think we need to clarify Barry said you "can" kill a moose with a 22 not that it would ever be recommended unless absolutely necessary

@@jlsgarage872 you can kill a cow with ease from distance with a .22 if you place the round behind the ear. I'm a butcher as well and have done it many times. The front of a cow skull can deflect even heavier rounds if the angle isn't right but the back side of the skull is much softer and the brain stem drops them in their tracks even if you don't get all the way into the brain.
check mark for everything on the list....
One note. For the 10/22, I have the takedown version with the magpul backpacker stock. As for as optics, I run a red dot on the barrel end, and a QD red dot magnifier on the action end. Just make sure your red dot is a ACSS CQB Reticle Red Dot Sight. with a 50 yard zero you'll be able able to make bullet drop adjustments to 175 yards with 22LR.

I had an incident that caused my husband to get me my own glock and take lessons on how to handle it. A man broke into my home 12 years ago when my husband was at work, he came through the back door and I just happened to be going to get a glass of water and we came face to face. I remember time standing still and thinking "man my husband is going to come home and find my dead body", thankfully he ran out and I called the cops. A week later we had multiple houses in our neighborhood robbed so I think he was scouting houses to see who was home during the day.
I’m so glad you are safe. I hope you have an alarm and easy access to that Glock.

I would suggest getting the doors in the house more secure that is one of the primary points of weakness in a house.
Do a little bit of a youtube search on the topic. Thinks like nightlock can stop even the most hard ass burglar from breaking in it also means the door cannot just be kicked in. You probably can get one fitted for $50.
Hey Mate,
My all time favorite bolt action weapon is the old 30-06 caliber round. Very deadly accurate at long distances, easy access to ammo almost everywhere(even California), and has a huge bullet weight range that will let you kill anything on the planet. I had a Ruger Mark5 that I used with 150 grain Remington ammo and took down a buck deer at 535 yards and point of impact was six inches high and two inches to the right of my point of aim.
The 30-06 is an old round, but one I hope I never have that 30 caliber hit me.
Being a former infantry soldier I like the AR (Armalite Rifle) platform. I have one in 12 GA, 5.56, .300 Blackout, and 9mm. I built these myself aside from the 12 GA which I purchased completed.
You're gonna have to pick up a second or third job to feed that 300blk these days
@@alinkinthecomments2639 lol, Nah.

Gun owners can't move a Inch when it come to terms
due to the Laws that are in place .
We can't alow the language to change
The definition of "assault rifle" is specific, and it's not a civilian AR. The difference is select fire. Our service rifles had semi-auto and burst settings. Some of the high speed cool kids get full auto, instead of burst.
Violent crime in the UK is going through the roof and if you defend yourself your liable to end up in court which is madness.
America is becoming very similar. Some states are protecting their citizens but many are trying to get rid of police and jail people for defending themselves.
In Mississippi if threatened or attacked we are not required to back up one single step..we have permitless open carry, stand your ground and castle doctrine laws with a gunslinger clause. Everyone is heavily armed. That's the way it should be always.

Hey Marine, these weapons will do the trick and a lot of Americans have these or similar weapons. I personally have been shooting sense I was 6 years old I’m 61 now .

I think a major consideration is ammo cost and availability, especially if you need to train to become proficient. May as well be a bat if you don't know what you are doing and if you hold a pistol sideways,you definitely don't 🤘
My most preferred rifle would be an AR-10 Chambered in .243, it's been named the BA Shredder because a .243 with the right loading out of a 20" barrel can punch through quite a bit.

I absolutely agree with these 5 firearms. It covers all bases, Pistol for concealed carry, .22 for squirrels or training kids, Semi-auto rifle for home/self-defense. Shotgun for home defense or hunting, and a bolt gun for hunting and perhaps even long-range shots. It's essentially every form and function you should have
Honestly I only need my pistol, shotgun and .22, I got two home defense guns, two hunting guns and a carry piece with just those three
RIP Barry. Still out here makin people smile
Barry is a OG
So I’m from Wyoming pretty much 98% of my state owns at least 2 guns each!! But as for a favorite that’s pretty hard to say I own a lot of guns but hmmm I like .556 but I’m gonna have to go with .224 in AR platform with 3x9 acog and suppressed of course!!
Long range either 6.5 creedmoor or 300 win mag suppressed.
Pistols I’m not much of a Glock fan I would prefer either XD 10 or 45.
Shotgun I’d say bernelli 12 gauge.
And if you want to go with a modern rifle I’d say either a Winchester 30/30 or 45-70 both are great calibers.

@@eaglegundam1873 that is just a simple Sear clip in the trigger assembly. This is illegal to own without a tax stamp, but it in no way makes the guns we own less battle ready, and in many cases the personalized rifles are far superior in bcgs, barrels, and triggers. Not to mention, a full auto does not make a gun more lethal... That is training.
@@scottapache5041 the military didn’t “rip off” the AR, Armalite submitted the M-16 variant of it’s existing AR-15 for bid when the military was looking for a new rifle & won. Then found themselves unable to produce enough rifles & was forced to sell out to Colt. Still, you’re right in that it was a civilian design before being modified for the military.
@@mavrx1939 Most excellent.
I liked them all, but I have owned an 8mm Mauser and a Mosin, and between the two... the Mauser was German Quality with a very smooth bolt, but the Mosin was even more accurate and very cheap to supply with ammo. The ammo is sold in bandoleers at guns shows at super cheap prices, the Mauser ammo about 40 dollars for twenty rounds and up. The Mosin is Russian thinking at its military best easy to clean, disassemble, on press on the trigger and the bolt falls out clean it re insert you are on your way.
When I lived outside of Seattle 20 years ago, one sporting goods store chain was selling Mausers for $50 each. They had crates of them. I kick myself sometimes for not buying at least one, but the ammo is so expensive now it would bankrupt me to bring it to the range.

I love that you get what the 2A is all about.
5.56x45mm NATO does not "bounce around" inside the target. Neither does .22LR; that's pure Fudd lore.
What 5.56 often does is fragment in a target - depending on the ammo selected.
5.56 has a pretty high velocity, and unless you're using steel core (green tip) or AP (black tip, if i recall), the round is typically just lead jacketed in copper. Lead is a soft metal, and when soft metal impacts flesh at high velocity, the hydrostatic shock rips it apart surprisingly fast at closer ranges.
Now, if you were hunting at close range, you would select a harder round with a hollow point/polymer tip, as you will get deeper penetration, better expansion, better energy transfer, and a more pronounced wound channel. if you are planning to shoot from longer distances, like military engagements 300+ yards, you want that softer bullet, because the bullet will have lost quite a bit of velocity, and to get better expansion at lower velocity, you want a softer round.
Regardless of which ammo you select, a bullet isn't going to "bounce around," because if it had the energy to do so, it's probably gonna either bloom into a big fragmentation pattern and stop quickly, or zip right through the body and keep going. If it somehow doesn't fragment or exit the body, what happens is the elasticity of the flesh will stretch with it a bit, and then snap back, trapping the bullet. The bullet will no longer have the energy to overcome the resistance of the flesh, and so cannot possibly "bounce around."
I have no idea how many times this Fudd lore has been debunked, or if there will ever be a time when people stop perpetuating this nonsense. Your body isn't a empty steel oil drum where a bullet can just ricochet around with nothing to slow it down between impacts. If you doubt me, go ahead and watch countless slow-mo videos of bullets hitting flesh (gotta love Paul Harrell's famous "meat target") or flesh-like mediums such as ballistic gel targets. Bullets can fragment, tumble, get captured, or punch through flesh and bone. They do not "bounce around" like some sort of pinball of death. Pure horse shit Fuddery.
