Cool Forgotten Weapons merch! shop.forgottenw...
Today, may the good lord help me, I am taking the Zip 22 out to the range for some shooting.
Note that while it actually worked remarkably well right up until it jammed solid, on the second range trip when we went back to get the high-speed footage, we literally could not get two rounds in a row. We did get a couple neat high-speed malfunctions though...
A big thanks to viewer Matt for generously loaning me the gun to film!
You know it’s a bad gun when someone says “wow two rounds in a row”
win montgomery back in the days of the musket that would be terrifying
@@torlakkarstad4251 A musket seems to have a higher rate of fire than this thing considering malfunctions
Buddy had a kimber 1911 that we would say that about
500 rounds later he got rid of it
You'll only here that with this gun 😂
win montgomery except AN-94
It suddenly struck me, this is the perfect murder weapon.... No one will ever believe you were able to actually shoot the gun.
Until the gun misfires, and the person you tried to kill runs away then accuses you of attempted murder 😅
@@illusion466 -Right 😂
Illusion466 or because it’s a 22 so your first shot that works doesn’t do fatal damage and then it jams up on you 😂
@@TheJerseyNinja After that your just like "Wait a minute *fiddles with zip .22* yeah hold on.... just one more moment. Just dont move and ill make it quick i just need to fix this gun..... *person bleeds out* ... ok got it. Ok ready! *gun misfires again* Damn!"
Nobodys gonna believe it killed them
It's like watching a mud test but without the mud.
and more malfunctions
But without a gun. Just mud.
Its is said gun jesus can rub mud on a gun and it will work without malfunction for the rest of its life.
Pollo DiGomma it probably wouldn’t get past the first 5 test rounds.
+StrangerOman a pile of mud has less reliability issues then this gun
The only gun that requires a nat 20 roll to fire successfully.
Even the hellishly cracked gunslinger from my last campaign wouldn't be able to fire this thing, tbh. Figure out a magical revolver sniper and dome the enemy healer through a stained glass window on the same turn he picked one up, sure. Fire a Zip? Not a chance in any hell XD
@@butchbabytoaster he would have to spend like 10-20 turns just to figure out how to hold it
What?
* jams every five seconds *
"This is performing better than expected!"
Perfect! It’s more or less annoying than the liberator gun made in ww2 like fire one round and go through the 7 step stage to reload again 👏👏👏👏👏
@@Mark_nobody3 yes but the liberator gun wasn't meant to be fired more than once. the Idea behind it was to shoot one bullet and kill a soilder and take their gun.
50% critical kill to steal a rifle or automatic rifle, 50% doesn’t kill and you get shot
Expectations were really low
DiamondPugs right? I guess he was expecting a mushroom cloud after the first trigger pull.
Reliability is boring
don't you love the thrill of squeezing the trigger and not knowing if its gonna fire or not
Yea it's a thrill I have a raven 25acp been through 4 slides it like to blow apart it's very exhilarating
@@mpmassacre91 : What I find exhilarating is the medical bills that follow... Those get my goat doin' the Nancy...
Uh-uh. When I pull the trigger, I expect it to discharge and cycle with no issues. What good is a gun that doesn't work half the time?
Russian Roulette.
Oh that’s just Russian Roulette
Nightmare load out:
Main Weapon - Zimbabwe poacher musket
Sidearm - Zip 22
Knife - Gas Station Zombie Knife
Canteen - Water Balloon
Truly would be a nightmare with those items trying to survive a zombie apocalypse, I'm not being mean, but the Zip 22 is definitely not a very useful gun.
@@bigalwaldron5038 The joke.
@@JustShotsForMeh I agree with you, it is a total Joke, the poacher guns look more reliable than the Zip 22, but nevertheless it's still a joke.
@@bigalwaldron5038 Got me good.
All of them are more effective thrown. I imagine the sharp end of the knife is about as blunt as the grip.

Hahahahaha Haha Haha
Thats fuking hilarious.. thank you very much i needed that
Hehelol
Hahahahahaha the problem is when everyone's done it and now YOUR TURN.
You can play with other semi autos, but it requires 4-6 of the same gun and a pillow case.
Also anyone familiar with the death of George Reeves? Was the actor who played Superman on TV. Died from a gunshot wound to the head. Story is he was playing Russian Roulette with a Luger pistol. Which is strange because he was supposed to be experienced in the game and likely wouldn't make such a rookie move.
Main suspect was his girlfriend/ex who was in the room with him at the time of the shooting though charges were never filed.
If they suddenly started selling those in full-auto no one would notice
Ngl the gun looks like it should be a full auto gun.
PF refrence
yup because it would still be semi auto because it jams every 5 second
The atf wouldn't care since it cant even get through a round without jamming
To be a full auto gun, it has to actually fire, extract, and feed.
Not gunna happen.
I appreciate this dude integrity that he posted this video trying for about 20 seconds to fire a gun with the safety on when he could have just left it out in the edits, fair play my dude
At least we know the safety works I guess
I'm kind of surprised that this gun has a safety
@@filthyferret3492 you and me both.
The safety works, about the only part of the gun that does
@@Jonnyg325 It's not the only safety, the mechanism is made to ensure the safety of the person it is aimed at
A napoleonic era redcoat would laugh at how unreliable this gun is.
Nah stone age rocks worked better then this thing
Outshooting a semiautomatic pistol with a musket? Thats soldering!
@@SvendleBerries semi automatic Jam machine
The Napoleonic era Redcoat had a perfectly serviceable and reliable weapon. This? It's not even a good paperweight.
The .22 has always been an unreliable caliber. I had a Remington 597 in .22 that had several failure to feed/eject issues.
I don't think you should ever want to hear someone say ;"Its not supposed to do that" when firing a gun.
Happened with a double barrel .410 that my dad bought brand new. Fired perfectly fine for the first five or so shots, but after that the top barrel would fire unreliable. The firing pin wasn't striking the round with enough force to get it to go off, but it would occasionally fire after a delay. So if the that happened you just stood there holding the gun down range for a couple minutes. After the second misfire he sent it back to the manufacturer for a refund or repair. Not sure which exactly
That's actually not something you want to hear about almost anything haha
I tried to shoot a pistol once, and nothing happened. This doesn't sound that bad, but there was a round in the chamber and it didn't make any noise whatsoever, not even a click from the hammer striking. I was scared that there was something wrong with the hammer, and thought it might decide to release itself after I put the gun down. That was the most tense silence I've ever heard in my life. It turns out it wasn't cocked properly, the hammer never locked in the down position.
Not unless you're the dude standing in front of it.
@@XanthosAcanthus "accidentally cures cancer"
Huh it's not supposed to do that
The one thing you never wanna hear from a firearms expert "it shouldn't be able to do that" in a concerned voice
Any expert
Despite that, I think the concept was a really good idea. It just needed better engineering
But it's not as bad as the expert laughing after shooting the firearm then asks wether if the gun works that way
That's more concerning
Anyone can design a gun that fails. It takes true genius to design a gun that fails in a manner that is not possible.

@@temkin9298 I don't really get why you'd want to attach an unreliable .22 to an assault rifle though, it's basically dead weight and it would be exactly what you described it as- a "weird last chance bullet".... even if you loaded it with a full mag it'd probably only shoot one bullet before spontaniously exploding like a far cry 2 gun
It's the fact that the charging handle is in front of the muzzle for me... I can't believe that went through to production.
It's as if the designer had seen the front grip strap on the MAC M-10, and decided that it was just too safe.
That was my first reaction when I saw one in a gun shop: "WTF is up with the charging rods..?!"
I don't know if they managed to sell it, or sent it back to the distributor, but it didn't attract any positive comments that saw.

Most underrated.
Excellent!

A better ending would have been: "His request was denied."
Any sane gun owner: "Gun safety always comes first!"
The zip 22: "Great! Now put your finger in front of the muzzle while it's loaded."
never felt so safe in my entire life
It’s not dangerous, after all, chances are it won’t fire even if you do accidental pull the trigger!

I can confirm the Zip 22 is best home defense weapon ever.
When i pointed it at the intruder he has been hospitalized as he almost died from laughter.
But think about how much damage you can do by throwing it at him, with all those sharp angles. Maybe this is the modern version of "ending him rightly"...
@@drewmandan And since you're just throwing the entire weapon, you don't have to surreptitiously unscrew anything before you spring your cunning attack.
@@AtlasJotun Yes, no unscrewing. Just frantically trying to unjam it and then being like "ahh fuck it!" and throwing it. Dude, this should be made into a movie.
@@drewmandan
No, to end him rightly, you eject the magazine, throw it at the target, and then bash their face in with the little protruding barrel.
@@theuncalledfor Then accidentally cock it during the barrel bashing motion, and shoot the bullet in the chamber into their face. This may actually be the ultimate self defense weapon after all.

Sharpe, with Zip22 being one of his men... I like that France represents all he stands for, and Britain represents all he despises, but still, he is the character used for british, anti-France propaganda... Such a great character, and such a cheap british propaganda at the same time, a marriage made in heaven, and one of the weirdest things I´ve seen in my life (I simply could have never imagined that propaganda can be so cheap)... The british propaganda was correct/truthfull in a single point: "the French don´t believe in god", which was partially true, and speaks FOR the French... ;-) ;-) ;-) The cringe was so high, that I had to imagine, that the series was really made in 1813, during the actual napoleonic wars, instead of it having been made today... ;-) ;-) ;-) Only that could explain the cringy propaganda, and spare me otherwise the cognitive dissonance.

I didn't expect to see Ian so mystified by a malfunction that he just hopefully pulled the trigger a few times.
"I have 15 round mag full of high velocity rounds and 70% possibility that gun is currently ether jammed or locked from really weird places. So you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?"
I'll take my chances.
yes
Had me rolling on the floor
Hey I gots to know
'Can I throw this weapon at you hard enough to do you a major injury?'
You know a gun is bad when the guy who can pull apart just about anything, and put it back together to functional state, is looking at the thing after a failure to feed, and whispering to himself "how do I fix that?"
I like how "better than expected" still involved needing to field-strip the thing to get it working after about 20 rounds
And just imagine ever thinking about making this standard issue
How this malfunctions so badly so often with so little parts is truly a marvel of engineering
You know a gun is absolutely awful when it straight up creates a previously unknown type of malfunction.
my shooting buddy bought one with all the do dads and replacement spring kit, Pic. rail and still never ran right. Finally he took his Saiga 12 ga. shotgun and blew it to bits. no b.s.
9:20 "How do we fix that?"
A gun so awful Gun Jesus doesn't even know what's wrong with it. Be afraid. Be VERY afraid.
Ah the legendary type 4 malfunction...
he really should've kept it. 50 years down the line, the limited produced gun would've been a collector/museum piece that would've been worth maybe 2x the MSRP! But in all seriousness, he should've kept it.
Ja C He should have. I mean, it’s a piece of shit for firing, but give it enough time and it’ll be of great value for collectors.
Has anyone ever tried shooting it left-handed "gangsta-style" so that gravity can assist the ejecting of a spent case?
Now, I'm not saying it'd be a good design if it was designed to be fired that way, my point is maybe it was just never used by anyone with the exact kind of stupid that the designer had.
If you sir existed back when this company was still alive, you could have single-handedly saved them. By using an idea even more stupid than the one that the creator of the gun had. I'm legit impressed not gonna lie

@@solaristic9228 i dont entirely know what that is, but i think i heard of that thing in roblox, but either way, contact the dev and tell them they programed it wrong, make it so it only fires 10% of the time, other 90% just jams and causes a 5 minute 'unjamming' sequence lol
I used to main the gun in PF for fun, it actually made for a good finisher if I missed the sniper headshot and did decent alone too. I ended up slapping a VCOG on it and other ridiculous attachments on it just to make it even more silly
@@jameswalton5733 also make it when you equip the full auto conversion it makes it jam 97% of the time
I love how, right before he goes to take the first shot, instinct takes over and Ian tries to rack a nonexistent slide.
I also just noticed the Zip has a bit of Pic rail on the underside, by the trigger guard. So, in theory, you could have a Zip 22 with an underslung Zip 22
Sadly, that'd technically make it more unlikely to actually shoot something
Theoretically you could mount a pic rail on one and a reverse pic rail on another and build a double zip with one upsidedown on top of the other...
@@stephenmartinek8315 and you could mount it backwards too, and then rig a mechanism that ties together the triggers to a string. Then, throw it like a boomerang yo-yo. They'd never see it coming! It's like Russian roulette with truly random odds.
That would probably be the only way of ensuring you could fire a second shot 😂
I spat oatmeal when you said rail for another zip 22.
I like that he didn't edit the part where he forgot the safety on.
Twice
I think that was to show the only redeeming function on the gun, a very effective safety
@@bearonthewall7078 not if you want to use the fun for self defense

Best comment so far, 10/10
It is also a damn fine weapon if you throw it hard enough
@Denam you're thinking too small. We need to go bigger. An ICBM perhaps?
I’m gonna be honest - those handmade confiscated poachers’s guns he did a video on seem more reliable and effective than this
Yep. I think if I was in a gunfight and offered one of those or the Zip .22 I'd be grabbing a poachers gun...
At least the poachers gun's could work as clubs if they don't fire
This thing doesn't even have that luxury. Even the cobray terminator would have some functionality of being a club
Even the Chinese mystery pistols cannot cause accidents to the owners' hands twice. This could potentially blow up fingers 10 times.
Agreed
I know I think that there was more craftsmanship in the poacher's guns.

By himself, while trying to un jam it.
That's perfect. And for a majority of the movie it's just him being lucky... Basically all the calm scenes are just him trying to reset and load the gun... And every now and then he gets a shot off that gets the bad guy
The only people that would get it are those that have seen this ... it would make a good movie gun though
A time travel movie that a guy failed to shoot two rounds in a row with this gun and switched to a matchlock.
What I might just love most about Ian is his almost mythical patience. How he can keep from roaring to the high heavens and vaulting that piece of garbage "gun" into the brush is beyond me. Also, his complete inability for sarcasm. He never changes the inflection of his voice or let his body take on an ironic stance. He's just overall a very calm dude. Sanguine, even. Almost like Jesus. No, exactly like Jesus.

Trained soldier with a Zip 22 vs untrained rebel with a rock who would win?
Trained soldier would throw the zip and take the rock from the insurgent
Trained soldier went too CQC mode sure to win
Considering that even if by some miracle the zip 22 fires, it will only be firing a 10/22 round, so maybe the rebel will be lucky enough to score a headshot with a rock throw.
@Thanos vs Justin Biebr Given the gun's aerodynamic properties, it would be better to just throw the bullets.
It's an even match, both are essentially armed with rocks
After 5 minutes you toss it to your enemy and let him give it a try
Nah, you just chuck it at an opponent who has a knife, and while they’re confused, you tackle them and stab them with their own knife.
Offer your knife wielding attacker a trade
It would be more useful as a weapon if you threw it at your enemy instead of shooting it.
Disassembling and reassembling it to fix an issue is the mechanical equivalent of “try turning it off and on again”.
So on a failure to feed, you are forced to put your fingers near the barrel not once, but twice, with a "chambered" round? Not to safely eject it, but just to correctly chamber the round?
Absolutely brilliant.
Let's take an inventory of its features:
-Doesn't feed ammo properly
-Jams up as soon as you look at it
-Has no extractor and doesn't eject casings reliably
-Cocking lever requires user to put his fingers dangerously close to the muzzle/
-Has quirky safeties that kick in without obvious telltales
-Requires field stripping after first trials in order to work
Yep, definitely a six-fold threat...to the shooter, NOT the target.
Don't forget that it's also less ergonomic than a cinderblock-shaped cactus doused with burning kerosene
EA designed this gun in partnership with Bethesda, obviously.

What about: For right hander, ejects casings onto hand?
@@kascally Yup, there's that too....
This is the gun-version of punching in your dreams
😂😂😂😂
Had a dream a gun I was using was shooting mustard seeds sized bullets.
@@dizzydial8081 in Mass Effect that’s a Magnum.
@@dizzydial8081 sounds like the Kolibri
I honestly always thought the dream punching thing was just me
It's not just a weapon, it's an entertainment system
A very dangerous one no child should ever be exposed to.😂
I like how the ten round magazine was small and the fifteen round mag was massive
Big pp little pp.
10 round is cyclical and 15 is single stack. .That's just how 10/22 mags roll
When they were designing that thing did no one stop and say, "Hold on a sec. There appears to be one or two problems with this pistol."
That was always my question. Most gun designers I've ever heard of have treated their design like it's their child. They constantly are tinkering, testing, tinkering some more, and retesting their design. With this thing it feels like someone drew it up in Autocad said, "yep, that looks about right. Ship 'em, boys!" and wiped their hands of it.
I believe that one or two would not even come close to encompassing the amount of issues with that """pistol"""
@@MrKeserian I think that's the whole idea, it's the safest gun on the market if you can't manage to get it to shoot.
They had probably been paid and were on there way to hide some were
That design appears to be something that the designers saw in a Call of Duty game, said, "Hey, that looks cool, let's make something like that!" and found out there's a reason it only exists in a video game.
And tomorrow: Ian does something less dangerous - he diffuses landmines with a sledgehammer whilst enjoying his pogo-stick blindfolded!
Yeah, watching this made me nervous. I would have shown a photo of it and said simply "Danger! Don't touch!".
if you get this as a gift from you girlfriend, it shows how much she hate you.
I was legitimately concerned for your safety and well-being watching you trying to fire that disaster.
If Battlefield ever makes another game set in modern times, this should be the troll weapon that they put in there.
Lol like the squads of people running around with the Kolibri's in BF1
Odds are BF6 will have this and it'll do 5-15 damage per shot. Remember my comment when it launches
@@kire929 nah nah nah, it'll be a part of the dlc that never gets fully realized and released, they'll pull a BF V and recycle some maps and call it a day

"It's not supposed to be able to do that . . . "
There's the pull quote.
And on the second day did He take the handful of nastiness to the range and cause it to fire more rounds consecutively than any before him and the people sayeth, "Lo, He makes even a handful of crap to work" and did bow down before his gun-jiggery-pockeryness.
Grendel Grendelson dude, please never stop commenting!
and when the knot of plastic and metal ceased to work, he tore it apart and built it back up, without changing a single part of it, and it began to fire again
He is, indeed, the son of John Moses Browning, hallowed be his name.
Aleluyah!
Well if orcs can make guns work just by faith...
This is probably the greatest polymer stick that fires .22lr. and it even comes with a puzzle game where you have to yank out every spent case by hand
Could it have been a 'stove-pipe' jam??

A guy named Matt emptied four mags with that with no failures.
DP-28 not a fair comparison, he was operating in a 98% WD40 environment.
nexviper how does that even work?
He dripped the whole thing in lubricant and pulled the trigger??
Constant failure to exctract gave me an idea. Maybe this gun is intended for left-handed ghetto style shooting? *thinking emoji*
that's the most genius idea i've ever heard
I laughed a bit too hard
Had exactly the same thought as I was watching it.... ;-)
You don't bottom mount it to the AR, you SIDE MOUNT IT!

It seems like he made this gun to get back at his ex-wife. Now she gets 50% of the company... which went out of business.

That sounds like the story of Charles Shaw wine.
No, they actually had real designs...

+Mike Veator I see what you did there.
I love watching the casing bouncing around like a pinball hoping to find its way out
This weapon is an insult to the materials that were used to make it
We must RESPECT the plastic!
TZ, The only good part is the RUGER magazine!
@@williamjohnson7414 the magazine actually offers more by giving insipirations for a more compact form of carrying bullets, I mean that little thing could carry ten rounds
And the PEZ ... I mean gun community!
I'm sure it wasn't consentual.
I'd be super curious to see some design engineers turn this thing into something both functional and safe. It would obviously not be better than existing weapons without changing it beyond recognition, but it would be cool to see how few changes need to be made just to make this thing semi-decent.
I was expecting Ian to get a new nickname like Four Fingers after trying to clear those malfunctions.
Well he is called the Gun Jesus, a hole through his palm would've made a very interesting talking point. As tasteless as this may be.
I too was cringing every time he had to mess with those cocking rods. Yikes.

Some years ago at a gun show, I saw one of these for sale, and, having a taste for exotica, I came within an
inch of buying it. But fortunately, I decided to NOT buy it and just stick to exotic dancers.
You chose wisely.
At least the Terminator actually works
You can't go wrong with exotic dancers, exotic drugs and/or exotic liquor. Well, you _can_ , but not as wrong as you can go with a Zip 22...
You buy exotic dancers?
That's impressive.

Well, looking at it, I don’t think thousands of rounds have been shot through all of them put together.
This is the only time that I've watched the entirety of these firearm shooting videos and I felt genuine fear and disbelief throughout its length.
This gun straight up looks like a Tediore pistol from Borderlands
But the difference is that Tediore guns are cheap yet can properly function
it even has the striped pattern on the side
The magazine size of a jakobs revolver
The precision of a hyperion sniper rifle
The reload speed of a bandit shotgun
The fire rate of the unforgiven
The damage of the basic repeater
The self harm of kriegs melee attacks
@@cheekibreeki904 first shot is very akward though it has to much sway and the no recoil thing feels weird
@@cheekibreeki904 oh well i wish i could get that in bl2 because the maliwan sniders outdo the hyperion snipers in every way
I've been playing it. Hyperion's gimmick is totally different: now you get a front-facing shield when you use sights. They're still accurate weapons and the shield is easier to use at a distance because it only faces one direction
"I'm sorry I broke your crap, but when you think about it, did I really?"
Ok, the fact that he's has to put so much force into cocking and loading that little piece of junk, especially considering it's only firing a tiny .22lr really makes me uncomfortable.
I'm not calling him weak, I'm calling that gun even more terrible than it already is.
Almost like they designed it with lighter springs, and when that didn't work they just jammed larger ones in without any consideration for ease of use.
>Gun gets jammed
>*Disassembles entire weapon to clear the jam*
Those diagonal stripes running on the side must be the only thing going for this.
I've fired a sum total of 60 rounds at a firing range. Watching him struggle to disassemble this thing without actually knowing whether or not there is a round in the chamber scares the hell out of me.
@@mattjohns3394 okay?
Matt Johns what are you talking about?
@@dutchplanderlinde4845 even with my complete lack of experience, I'm aware of the dangers of trying to dosmantle a gun that is still loaded.
This video along with the desktop video was literally full of "firsts" for me... Ian calling a gun a total piece of junk, having a relatively hard time stripping the gun down and then having to perform a surgery on the gun to extract a casing or rather separate malfunctioning parts of the gun. A terrifying experience even as a viewer. I can't imagine this gun ever being approved for public sale, but apparently that was the case. Very informative and interesting. Thank you, Ian!
storBoomer You oughta go check out the Lewis gun video for an even more god awful teardown involving Ian
Yeah, I was kinda concerned when he was handling the thing while trying to disassemble the thing.
The basic idea, a semi-auto pistol that would take 10-22 mags, is quite a good idea. Something along the lines of a C-96 with an updated grip design, would actually be quite cool!
Zip 22: *locks open*
Gun Jesus: "you weren't supposed to do that"
"This has been preforming better then I would have expected it too"
ZIP .22: Yeah lemme just brick up real quick
The zip 22 realized it was doing better than average so it seized up to the point of field stripping.
Performance anxiety
