Fantastic to see my favourite gun RUclipsr back. I spent 8 months lamenting your disappearance! Awesome video and explanation. And I loved your "High-horse" berm chuckle...but SO logical and sensible. PLEASE keep 'em coming - love love love your content! Hey from NZ.
Every time I watch Jerry in his shop I always have a little chuckle at my neighbors expense. He is a retired marine who always tells me not to store ammo long term, but I want to send him a screen shot of this wall to poke at him a little.
I live in southeast Alaska, it rains alot and everything rots. I found some ammo that sat in my garage that is open to the air. The ammo was there for 20+ years and was completely green. I cleaned up the brass with some steel wool and it all shot just fine. I'm sure ammo that is stored indoors would probably last 100 years.
Since they have been selling surplus ammunition, much of which is 50 years or more old, that functions quite well, your Marine friend might want to rethink his position. I have fired shotgun ammunition that was over 60 years old that has been in an indoor closet most of that time and it works just fine. Same for some nearly 50 year old 22 lr.
Some people are still sitting on WW2 ammo, that mostly works and is collectable, lol. I try to keep about 1k rounds for each gun till I got more guns than I could store ammo for, semper fi
GI ammo cans are great for long-term ammo storage. Just be sure the rubber gasket for the lid is intact. Keep the cans in a temperature-steady location (preferably cool) and it'll probably last longer than you.
Jerry, knows safety, understands safety and practices safety and teaches safety! Perfect. No bullet can leave the range no matter what happens unexpectedly!
First time I saw Jerry on this "set", the same thought crossed my mind, kkkkkk. Does he uses ALL of em or is this just to show, like the tons of books all lawyers always have behind them in the office? Kkkkkkkkk
I just port it if I don't want recoil. I have a very bad back. At best I can shoot maybe 20 min. I found that porting, springs and doing a polish job eliminates recoil. I have an S&W SD9VE with three large ports behind the sight, crimson trace red dot, 22lb recoil spring and lots of polished parts, trigger job and springs. It shoots flat with no recoil. Love that pistol now though I loved it before. I have four giant ports on my shotgun. Polished internals, red dot and filed receiver with modified loading gate to make it easier to load, and I added magazine extension for 9 shells ghost loaded. Love your show.
Every time I see Lena posting some kind of content I think “I wonder when Jerry is going to post a new video”. Glad to see you again. Please post more. Some of us appreciate knowledge from someone that really knows what he’s doing.
Hi Jerry! Nice to see a new video from you. I was already afraid that something had happened. I hope you do a lot more. I learn something new every time. ❤
The mag buffer alone is a significant improvement to felt recoil. It eliminates snappy recoil that often is a symptom of an over gassed rifle but does so without having to tune the gas down.
Jerry, I was so happy when I saw that you had a new video and even more so watching it. I hope you do not wait so long next time since you have so much to offer.
I recently got the Vltor A5 buffer system for recoil reduction. It is an intermediate size buffer tube and has a longer buffer and a rifle spring. The only downside is the stock is about 3/4 of an inch from collapsing all the way, but that's not a big deal to me. It is also a 7 position tube so I still have 6 different length settings, it just starts at number 2. The mid length gas system really works great on a 14.5 pinned and welded compensator rifle as well.
You should try a Tubbs flat wire buffer spring. It eliminates the tube harmonics. It really smooths out the rear section of your msr. I noticed a big difference.
I know Jerry has shot way more than I ever will, but I have never seen an AR work below -20F and I've not seen one work well below freezing in bad weather.
I agree with Jerry, here. Most OEM M.S.Rifles are Over Gassed, so they work under all conditions. Which can lead to equipment failures down the road! But if you are building a gun, why not set it up to run like a tuned machine!?
Smart tip on dropping the bolt in a safe direction...point well taken...if there's going to be an accidental discharge it's likely to happen in that moment. I have the same attitude about folks who clear a gun then pull the trigger...but not in a safe direction.
Jerry please keep posting these types of videos where you are simply sharing your knowledge and talking to us. It is so valuable in this age of the tiresome bearded gunbro culture on RUclips. Jerry is the best of the best. ❤
Jerry, I like yer background (behind you)! I love the mess!! Keep your wife outta there, she'll go in and straighten it out, then you can't find a damn thing!!
It would be fine to have any rifle without any recoil. Have seen on the market shaft pads, absorber in the rifle stock, and other ideas. But my .458 Lott, my .577 H&H likes to let me feel any shoot. It belongs to us shooter like our woman how costs money ! Greetings here of Africa, Thomas
When you say match chambers, you're referring to .223 Wylde, correct? Invented here in Illinois by Bill Wylde, also home to the first 3 gun competition in the US.
@@jeffbetteridge9870 you're welcome but seriously why buy extra parts when the rifle comes with everything you need? And you can get them from 1k to 1.5k in either 13inches or 18 inches along with 308 versions....
Parabéns pelo vídeo que o grande Deus der muita saúde pra o Sr .... e que um dia o Brasil seja um país armamentista e que nos não sejamos privados de nossa liberdade
A game i play is to insert and lock the loaded magazine into an open bolt, depress the trigger as close as i can guess to breaking weight, point rifle at target, and send the bolt home. Helps to discover and train out overpulling when it goes off.
Mr. Miculek, I have been learning from you more years than I will admit for both our sake's. I am new to AR's and just bought one and when I started watching video's I found it amazing when guys could rip off 5-6 rounds and the muzzle don't even move. I mean the 5.56 don't have the recoil my 30.06 does but when it can shoot THAT flat it's amazing! I don't want to get into gas system changes or new bolts yet but wondered if changing the buffer to the magnetic one would help on it's own and will it create any issues for me? I have a 16" barrel with a mid-length gas system, everything is 100% stock right now and would prefer to stay close to that .
College level explanation by Jerry as always, leaves you with no questions as to what is really going on, I hope he makes a similar video with service pistols and competition pistols.
jerry seems like you should most definitely try the a5 tube, you can get a tube from many different manufacturers and it allows the use of a rifle spring and its supported with buffers and hydraulic buffers from a lot of manufacturers
HE’S BACK!!!!! I thought Jerry was done doing videos. It’s been months. He’s one of the best.
he goes on the road for work
Glad to see you back after 9 months brother!!
God bless~
Wonder how many people will probably say something like “just learn to shoot better” not realizing who they’re talking to.
My guess is 0-1 people.

Looks like Mr Miculek is big into muzzle discipline and avoiding negligent discharges.
Great video!
“Say no to recoil?!!?”
Scott is going to see this, and end up crying.
😂😂😂 i think that too
😂😂😂
950 JDJ has entered the chat.
Scott does love to abuse himself with recoil!
Thanks for the info and to remind us all to keep our muzzles pointed down range when dropping a bolt ! Cannot say it enough !

Those are boxes of bullets, not loaded ammo.

Its great to see you back. Always informative content. Thank you.
Jerry, missed ya'll. Glad your back!
It's so good to see Jerry posting more videos, sharing his wealth of knowledge.
The man, the myth, the legend!!! Good to see you providing some knowledge again!!! Thank you sir!!
The absolute finest ambassador for the gun community.
Thanks JM
I got to meet Jerry a few months ago. What a down-to-earth guy he is.
Jerry, knows safety, understands safety and practices safety and teaches safety! Perfect. No bullet can leave the range no matter what happens unexpectedly!
He is Mr. Safety. I like how his is considering worst case and unexpected discard. Safety is job 1 through 10, and then you can pull the trigger.
"Get Some"..... Been missing these, thanks JM.
Jerry you're brilliance is 2nd to none thank you Sir!😊
Im glad to share a name with a man who makes John Wick look like Barney Fife with firearms. Jerry Miculek has deadeye in real life.
There was me thinking he took time off to sort those shelves of ammo out 😂😂
lol I bet he can find and caliber there without hesitation
@@AllTheDips yer he did say there is an order to it be for I was just joking
First time I saw Jerry on this "set", the same thought crossed my mind, kkkkkk. Does he uses ALL of em or is this just to show, like the tons of books all lawyers always have behind them in the office? Kkkkkkkkk
They are sorted, bullets go on shelves, done!
He didn't take enough time off for that! Lol
Thank you for making the distinction between a fighting rifle and a range toy.
The Man , The Myth, The Legend !!!
Such an amazing and humble person. The world needs more people like Jerry out here sharing their knowledge
I have used those magnetic buffers for years. Long before Jerry bought the rights. They are amazing!
I just port it if I don't want recoil. I have a very bad back. At best I can shoot maybe 20 min. I found that porting, springs and doing a polish job eliminates recoil.

Wow! The difference at the range was massive! Brilliant!
Glad to have you back. I was starting to be worried. Thanks for your videos and happy to see you in great form

Hi Jerry!
Nice to see a new video from you. I was already afraid that something had happened.
I hope you do a lot more. I learn something new every time. ❤
Gonna be honest. Thought he was about to give some fudd tips with the reload bit. But it was legit. Love this man.
The mag buffer alone is a significant improvement to felt recoil. It eliminates snappy recoil that often is a symptom of an over gassed rifle but does so without having to tune the gas down.
Jerrys favorite line: lets go out to the range
Jerry, I was so happy when I saw that you had a new video and even more so watching it. I hope you do not wait so long next time since you have so much to offer.
I applause for Jerry . Safety is number one priority.
Yeah a good comp keeps the muzzle flat and is loud af!
That is a downside, they are louder.
Welcome back buddy, we missed ya
Nothing but good ol advice by the man himself Jerry!

I always learn something practical on Jerry's videos.
This guy just taught me a lot.

Missed you Jerry!! Keep it up!

"I put my gun in the freezer."
Up north during the winter months, we call that outside.
Jerry's back! Looking good brother you had us worried
He is one of the greatest goats of the firearms industry and there are many.
Smart tip on dropping the bolt in a safe direction...point well taken...if there's going to be an accidental discharge it's likely to happen in that moment. I have the same attitude about folks who clear a gun then pull the trigger...but not in a safe direction.
Glad you are back!
Great video and great tips. Luv watching and learning w/Jerry

They don't allow flash suppressors/muzzle breaks in CT. I guess they don't want you to shoot accurately.
It would be fine to have any rifle without any recoil. Have seen on the market shaft pads, absorber in the rifle stock, and other ideas. But my .458 Lott, my .577 H&H likes to let me feel any shoot.
It belongs to us shooter like our woman how costs money !
Greetings here of Africa,
Thomas
The only man alive who can beat Chuck Norris
Daniel is definitely one of the greatest to ever do it but Jerry you are to!
Interesting. Been trying to get that magnetic buffer...but across the pond is quite expensive...
Jerry always got a lot of great insight. My rifle setup has taken a lot of inspiration from Jerry.
Magnetic buffer? Says the legendary man that shoots wheel guns like full autos 😅
Been missing you old man!!!
When you say match chambers, you're referring to .223 Wylde, correct? Invented here in Illinois by Bill Wylde, also home to the first 3 gun competition in the US.
Welcome back!
As much experience I believe I have there is always something and somewhere I can improve. Mostly it's always in safety
Common sense...ain't a whole lot of that floating around these days. Great explanation and video. Always enjoyable
He's back from the dead
Women will see those shelves behind him and think its a cluttered mess.
Men know that Jerry knows exactly whats there, how much, and where it's at.
Just go get an Armalite M153GN18 they have adjust muzzle break and adjustable gas block with a rifle length gas system has zero recoil
Thk u mr know it all
@@jeffbetteridge9870 you're welcome but seriously why buy extra parts when the rifle comes with everything you need? And you can get them from 1k to 1.5k in either 13inches or 18 inches along with 308 versions....
Jerry's just the best.😊
Just got a Miculek buffer. Excited to try it out!
Ive had mine for 2 years and it really is a game changer.
Slanting the muzzle brake should produce similar results to the offset stock, but its free.
11:59 If you got a big, heavy comp, you're just... compensating.
I really like that offset butt stock. I could really use one like it.
Parabéns pelo vídeo que o grande Deus der muita saúde pra o Sr .... e que um dia o Brasil seja um país armamentista e que nos não sejamos privados de nossa liberdade
I have one of those big Jp rifles howitzer style brakes and man it makes a huge difference.
Excellent tutorial! Thanks Jerry. You da man! 🙏🏼
Ооо дед ты ещё жив!! Дай бог тебе здоровья 🙏👍💪

I have that muzzle brake in 30 cal, works great !!
You can also watch your shoulder to get an idea how much each one recoils.
You should sell a service. I send you my budget and you pick out all the parts. 100 bucks.
Mr. Miculek, I have been learning from you more years than I will admit for both our sake's. I am new to AR's and just bought one and when I started watching video's

GET SOME!
(You forgot Sir, so I said it for you)
I had my rifle length gas 16.75 inch gun out in Alaska at -36F. It ran fine. However I didn't leave my ammo out for too long
I'm a gas system when it's taco night.
His return was foretold on ancient murals.
Always wondered why a competition rifle wouldnt be good for a duty rifle. Now I know. Duty is overgassed for function in any combat environment
I was just looking at lowering the recoil of my ar... impeccable timing Jerry! We would love to see more of you!
the freezer part is so important and lots of folks will miss it, said at the end silently....
Camera person…… come Jerry!! 😳🤷♂️ stop!!! Lol 😂
The GOAT
Simple explanation and to the point. Thanks.
The G.O.A.T. Much respect Mr. Miculek. Thanks for sharing.
