All Brandon’s fans: wHeRe’S aKfITtY?¿?¿
Flannel Daddy: *laughs in officer*
Now we need a "garand .50" instead of 30.06 or whatever the m1 shoots
It all makes sense now…..
When will you be out there shooting it
As long as he has thumbs, it can happen.
“Kentucky Ballistic”is now a verb for injuries from a firearm malfunction. Lol
As long as scott uses his thumb, he'll be fine shooting it ;-) that thumb is priceless :-)
I hope you can laugh about it one day Scott.
One of my team was set on fire 20 years ago now and every time someone jokes about it; he sits there staring into space fuming……. 😂😂😂
Chow - “But did you die?” 👍
Man, Garand Thumb’s CGI budget is getting insane. It almost looks like there’s a real AK-50 in this video.
Wow
@Queen Elsa ♪ nice one
There’s also an Bearded lady lookalike of you on this video.
Do the sponge bob stickers come standard?
Hi Brandon.
Mike:- "There's a difference between a sword smith and a sword fighter"
Brandon:- "Which is why I am not much of a sword fighter I'll leave that to guys like ....."
*Mike while editing*- Cut the clip
Yeah, this one had me laughing!!!
He doesnt use the sword
He merely works it. 😂
Am I dumb, I don't get it, ahhhh
@@ivibivivgig6425 "sword fighting" is called when two gay dudes... clash their swords, if you know what I mean. He probably made an 18+ joke.

watching the chemistry between you guys is a horrifically fascinating trainwreck

Yes... I was surprised this video even made it out.
Mike's ego reaaaally doesn't like Brandon.
@@Old299dfk ego? brother most of these jokes are satire
Lol this intro is funny
It’s a RUclips video. You don’t know them at all 😂
"Sorry Mike, you weren't supposed to survive that. Who's getting to 2 million first now?". That was fucking hilarious 😂
I laughed so hard at that one
And like that, vid is demonetized
Confirmed Brandon supplied the SLAP rounds to Scott.

He probably loaded it with a spicy SLAP round

They do seem to have great chemistry. xD

This guns deserves to be a standard in Fallout/Metro style games. It's the perfect combination of engineering and scavenging you'd see in a post-apocalyptic setting.
Honestly someone needs to make a mod for it in fallout 4
I was thinking that as well, it seems like someone would engineer in their garage, which would be perfect for a fallout setting
@@khakipeach2128 it's not that far off one of the older AMR's funnily enough.
YES !
It’s coming to Escape From Tarkov
Mike: "Man what a piece of shit!"

I wish Brandon all the luck in the world with this, he is one of my fav guntubers atm and i love that they all get on with each other these collabs are always brilliant!
He needs way way more credit than what I seeing. It's a firing ak50. That's insane. I've been hearing ' that's impossible' for years.
It's never a good time when a selling point is "Are the tourniquets included?"
ITS A GREAT TIME!
Well, for you maybe. 8)
NYET TIME IS GREAT
Only when Morphine is supplied as standard equipment, then it get fun.
Negative ghost rider, that means great times are ahead.
Man, in however many years it'll take to finish this, it'll be both internet culture history and _actual_ firearm history.
When Kalashnikov concern reacts to it I will die a complete human being
it'll go straight from the production line to Forgotten Weapons.
@@Scroolewse Not really, Most of the "forgotten Weapons" firearms are from defunct companies or deceased inventors. Brandon is still with us and he seems absolutely DEDICATED to making this thing work
🤯
we are witnessing history being made
I'm really impressed that Garand Thumb actually got shot for that scene. Such a dedicated actor
I love how you guys keep it light but super informative with creativity and humor. Mad respect!!!!
Its basically a Bethesda Firearm. You get the totally complete "it just works" Gen1 product and get to download all the core functions, and propably a new hand and shoulder, some time down the line. Marvelous.
Now we just need to unlock all the attachments
in contrast to bethesda (which is just ea-light) this gun has soul
Wait, does it have 16 TIMES the detail?
So what you're saying, is that Bethesda predicted the path of firearms..?
Looks like a Wolfenstein weapon.
Big af, powerful af.
"We decided, well okay, the insurance decided that that was not a good idea."
Translation: "I've mag-dumped this thing from the hip but I'm not allowed to show it on RUclips..."
Can’t believe I missed this. That is the perfect truck gun for this Texan. Love the 2 finger charging grip. Also, I see a future need of a cardboard mag release mod.
This is great. I've spent the past year learning about AKs to a massive degree. Actually had some surgically induced total downtime and read the textbook, "AK-47 the Grim Reaper." Very exhaustive. Having been in Jr. High when Red Dawn came out the AK has always been forbidden fruit. Grew up in the Rocky Mountain region where guns were everywhere to the point where there were three brands. Pistol, rifle and shotgun, AK and M stuff were the stuff of Chuck Norris, Stallone and Schwarzenegger all of which seemed unattainable. Now with all the ARs running around, which are great and I love, I started checking out the AK thing and it is a new and wondrous world of an entirely new weapons system. They are pretty ingenious and very diverse which doesn't even take into account the 7.62 v. 5.45 subgroups of fanatics which have their own separate arguments far away from the AR v. AK debate. Eventually you'll run into even more peculiar groups of SKS and Mosin enthusiasts. Just saw the AK-50 June 2023 update but didn't want to watch it without watching this one.
Garand Thumb: “this is the AK-50 that’s being released to the public!”
Brandon: *having vietnam flashbacks of reddit* “it’s not ready yet”
Garand Thumb: “I dont care! It’s my channel!”
I can't wait to place my order in the next month!

I have a Barrett416 and after 20 shots I use the expense excuse )) it is very expensive $3-4 just for reloads I do. Damn primers are 50cents alone enough powder and big cost do I go solid brass or lead glad I bought out Midway USA)) sure is fun though

Love these guys. Watching them together is awesome!
For a second you had me believing this was an AK. What we have here is a portable death star.
AK Guy: "The electrical tape actually flexes enough, that it doesn't break"
GT: >__< " Thaaat's incredible."
Its Scotch Super 33+ tape. Trust nothing else!
Gorilla tape will hold nearly anything together, never ever think that tape be lackin…
If you look at the tape closely it’s already breaking
Such hubris will anger the ballistic gods.
I... once was on a recovery of a 10million dollar piece of biological test rig from the bottom of the ocean. When it came up on deck, it had all the hose clamps on the lines broken out, but the electrical tape (Super 33 3m. , NOT 88!) held for the whole reco.
My only question is... was that 33? or 88? I'm guessing 33. Since we pulled up a 2 ton SLED from 4000 meters where ONLY the Super 33+ bands which had been to the bottom of the ocean for a year were what held the recovery system into the package. 88 is stronger, but can't stretch as much.
i always knew u were a cool dude but this video shows the more down to earth funny side instead of ur serious side...good times with good people.great vid.
I love how all these creators are sharing content and becoming friends instead of seeing only competition. Every new creator Demo,AK, Donut,Garand etc. bring on their channels I begin following. Keep it up guys love the comradery .
> I love how all these creators are sharing content and becoming friends instead of seeing only competition.
Well said! There are few things which are more productive than cooperation mixed with a little friendly competition.
I frequently used little competitions back in the day when I was a drill sergeant/drill instructor in the Austrian Army to motivate my recruits and put a little fun into sometimes tedious training exercises, and never failed: my lads were more motivated, it helped them to train things like muscle memory via otherwise tiring repetitions, their team spirit became stronger, and last but not least, I also enjoyed my work more when I watched them become more proficient while they enjoyed themselves at the same time.
And yes, granted: that isn't always possible because sometimes, tasks _are_ just tedious, exhausting or both and just _can't_ be sugarcoated in any way, but just have to be carried out no matter what. So you can't always be the "nice coach" as a DS/DI, but sometimes just have to be the relentless arsehole who demands that some task is to be completed whether your lads like it or not.
But whenever training _can_ be made enjoyable, it should be made so, because that will lead to recruits/students become better and be more successful when they are confronted with the real deal.
@@drops2cents260 your story is amazing
A good thing to see indeed, especially with youtube crackdowns on content like this lately. If needed this has a far greater possability to move the whole community to another platform than everyons going solo.
I love this too
We got a near perfect gun tribe here.
Now we just need Paul Harrell, to be the Chief!
The SpongeBob tape really holds the whole thing together.
CarniK Con vibes on point.
Yup
I think that they were hiding the Manufacturer's name and serial number. That's normally where they are stamped on the receiver.

Imagine it wasn't just a prototype and it was an actual working model: "this is the AK 50 chambered in .50 BMG. I didn't get to play with it as much as I wanted to, so I only got to put about 8,000 rounds through it this weekend"
About 2 years I reckon
@@bouttobreak12 nah, you heard him its coming out in a few weeks
@@bouttobreak12we’re getting the big reveal when he wins Congress, is my bet
In Brandon's defense: the pressure of a .50BMG round on a regular AK gas block would probably turn it into a really wonky grenade.
They did fire a .50BMG round from a modified AK. Turned the whole gun into a damn grenade. The dust cover flew 50 yards.
@@t-pnaminami3808 Yup. Figured it would. 50BMG is a hell of a round.
Love the opening scene man!
The Sponge Bob tape on the receiver is what really sets it off. I hope that’s included in the production model.
Every gun will come with a roll of electrical tape.
Better yet it'll get etched into the receiver
@@StarSurfer55 better be spongebob themed
Dude did you watch the video? That is the production model. It's gonna be dropping in a few weeks.

Great video. made my morning.

"Am I gonna get Kentucky Ballistic'd?" Y'all ain't never gonna let Scott live that down 😂
Scott survived and a great coping mechanism is humor. His friends are using humor to take away the trauma of the incident. When Brandon pulled out the one round I immediately thought SLAP. However, I get the feeling that pretty much EVERYBODY who saw the video will be avoiding those rounds in the future.
Ok, I need this explained to me. Is there a link to a video I should see?

Another point, an AK butt stock would fit from behind the trigger and mould it above the carrier housing at the rear, that is actually a smart rifle and could count close quarter 50cal much like the AA12 auto shotgun application, thing is crazy, top marks Brandon ✌ ♥

Decent AKs: "I run on the cheapest steel case ammo assembled with hammers wielded by children"
AK50: "I really prefer the $8 per round AMAX over M33 Ball"
It must be the faster burning powder for the lighter bullet. This thing would work well with tuned handloads to account for the shorter barrel.

@@TheAcceleratorMagazine special sauce goes boomy better
@@TheAcceleratorMagazine It means AK50 should us intermediate cartridge because it is AK.
Also the powder that you load in full sized military 50 BMG is the slowest stuff on the market. So what he needs is to go down a notch on the bullet weight and also the powder type.

I love these collabs inbetween the best youtubers about guns
My thought on their using a string to fire: They need something between them and the gun as well. They should absolutely have a large metal or brick barrier with a little polycarbonate window or something. If that gun blows, it is still potentially going to send a few pieces of metal backwards at extremely high velocity. They're just standing there, like 10 feet away...
