    Congratulations on the 15,000 subscribers brother. You earned every single one of them. Keep up the great work. Tell me do you think those smasher rounds will work in the Gavle with the magnetic D10s ? Obviously they're not ready due to the size but just something I was thinking about while you were going over it.

      Thanks man! You know, I think they actually will. When I get some 16 g cartridges and I’m going to revisit these with the gavel just for fun.

    GrimBurg announced their new Carry launcher last night. They have 34 units available for shipping mid February selling out fast $700 after tax ….And V3 juls are magnetized for the new modern detente in 2025 launchers.

    • @AlternateArmsSD

      Yeah, they had told me about that a couple months ago and I’m hoping we will see one at SHOT Show. I’ll definitely try to get one in for the show.

      As nice as the Carry is, it's not the Solstice. I don't love the twist to puncture for a carry option. Which sucks because the Grimburg is an amazing launcher otherwise

    I just saw a video about the PCP pocket pistol. Definitely a cool concept, but outside of the pepper spray canisters I don't see much practical application.
    Congratulations on 15k Jon! I can't wait for the Shotshow videos.

    • @AlternateArmsSD
      @AlternateArmsSD  День назад +2

      Yeah, that’s kind of what I was thinking too when I saw them. I don’t know if they have a whole lot of practical use and they require a great deal of prep. However, you know me, if it exists, we’ll try to get it on the show :-)

    • @MichaelWhite-cx4ho
      @MichaelWhite-cx4ho День назад +2

      Agreed! However, they are definitely a cool concept, especially, to me, the 4,000 PSI cartridge fill! That's very impressive for a cartridge that small. The simulated pepper gel / paint demo that Airgun Alley demonstrated, among a number of less effective, IMO, types of ammo he tested, could be real "shock and awe" to a bad guy or a guy having a bad day!

  • @elliottlang9100

    • @AlternateArmsSD

      Yeah, close range + heavy rounds + high velocity equals bad news for attacker.

  • @Joreel

    These look like a great addition to all of our ammo counts. I'll be interesting to see if they take your advice.
    Can't wait to see your coverage of ShotShow this year and see all the new tempting to launchers. I still think the Bazooka you found two years ago could be the ultimate home defense launcher 😅

    • @AlternateArmsSD

      @@AlternateArmsSD Yeah it's funny that there is any a single review for their Pro 1 or Pro 5 launchers on RUclips or the Internet that I could find which seems odd as you'd think someone would have reviewed one or the other by now. Hopefully they'll be there so you can get more information as their cartridge system seemed interesting.

      There was no need. I have a TON of FPS videos on the Pistelle (and he gavle). This is in the exact same configuration that the last video was shot in. Take a look at the last video for the FPS readings. I suspect this will be VERY VERY close to the same.

    So my new kit, LTL Alpha secondary and HDX68 40j with Barrel extension. I only run Riot balls. The Ltl has a dart and 6 rounds. Will it work?

    • @AlternateArmsSD
      @AlternateArmsSD  22 часа назад

      It should work as long as the first round is not in the detent when you fire it. I haven’t tried it with a dart but I can’t imagine why it wouldn’t.

  • @theFormidable1
    @theFormidable1 День назад +1

    It would have been more informative if you chronographed the numbers, just going by the info you gave I'm guessing those rounds would be comparable to the 9.9 gram riot balls, so maybe mid to high 300s in fps and probably 48 joules down to 40 on last shot with X-68?

    • @AlternateArmsSD

      @@theFormidable1 that’s exactly where they would be. The last video Chronoed the JUL rounds and I suspect these are right on par.

      @AlternateArmsSD thanks for the link, I visited the site and it seems they really did their homework on these rounds. I've been advocating the importance of velocity to weight ratio to obtain maximum kinetic energy and the smashers designer's seems to get it and developed the ideal .68 cal less lethal ball round. Can you please do a future video with chrono numbers using the pistelle and the 11 in extended barrel? I'm very tempted to pull the trigger on these smasher rounds.
