    5 minutes of smackdown right at the beginning. I love it.

    The first 5 minutes was like watching your dad taking the belt to your brother and thinking, “whew. Glad that’s not me” but still laughing the whole time.

    Did Paul fail to make it clear or did some people fail to understand? You be the judge!

    First 5 minutes of this video is the most gentlemanly way I've ever seen of someone saying, "you people are stupid."

    I've always skipped past this presentation, because after 30+ years of service, I felt confident I have a good idea how to zero the AR platform. Not that it would be a waste of time, but more that I prioritize what I watch and when. Well, I'm going through watching every one of Paul's presentations. I'm glad I finally did watch this presentation. Though I am not wrong in my understanding how to zero, I still learned something from following Paul's way; which I will look to incorporate into my own shooting. I appreciate Paul spent the time sharing with us.

    Hey Paul, the Marines still use yards. I remember being taught to zero the ACOG/RCO at 100 yards and 100 meters interchangeably, and this was also shown in the data book. In fact it can be seen in MCRP 3-01A (Rifle Marksmanship) Ch. 8 pg. 10. We were told the the reticle graduations were measured in meters, however. We also shot on ranges that were measured in meters but they were converted from yards. So for example, 457 meters, which is 500 yards.

    On the A2 We use to do 8/3 -2 on the rear sight, centered with the front sight flush. We would zero at 200 yards and all elevation adjustments were done on the front sight. That supposedly calibrated the sights to roughly match the numbers on the rear elevation knob Great video

    Hey Paul, in 1985 I was in a serious motorcycle accident and comatose for 6.5 weeks. I didn't have any problem understanding you were using an A1 because you said so... a few times.

    The ability to perform basic military shooting like this is the bedrock of armed personal defense. I am surprised at how few gun people take the time to learn the fundamentals of marksmanship with the A1/A2 rifles. Maybe this has been done already on his channel but there are also close range techniques with these older rifles that a lot of people may have an interest in.

    I was amazed how easy the Army system was for zeroing M-16A1's back in basic. Shot expert that day too :) 36/40 first day ever firing one. Nice Mattel toy.

    At 64 years old, I bought my first AR. A great explanation. Watched it 3 times to fully grasp all details. Thanks !!
