Why can't Karl the Cuck come here and defend himself instead of sending his tubby autistic buttbuddy?

Karl's worked infosec before, he knows very well that signing up to a forum using your real name is potentially compromising material.

Even if that weren't the case, simply having an account here in grounds for a canceling if you're woke. Phagan, for all the shit we give him, isn't part of that crowd so him being here and giving us confirmation of his identity is no big deal.

So long as he's the one relaying screenshots, that could be mitigated. I doubt he would enter into a perceived thread of antagonism and especially not if he had to verify himself to Null before anyone would take him remotely seriously.
Sidenote: I'm impressed that we on the Farms have more of an effect on the market than Karl's exceptional shenanigans. He's totally irrelevant even when it comes to his own product, that's astounding!

I mean, it's not like you have to go through a strenuous vetting process to get verified here. But yeah, I think the issue is that he'd be diving head-first into a shark pool. Karl has done some good work in the past (I still recommend some of his old historical vignette videos to people), but there's definitely not a lot of love for him around these parts. And, to be honest, I don't want his sycophants to sign up here to try to defend him either.

Wasn't that because those were used for assassinations? The rationale there was that you aren't going into a firefight, you're finding your target and then quietly murdering them when they're alone.
If you have the element of surprise and the luxury of getting to place your shot at your leisure, it doesn't matter if penetration isn't that deep, you can shoot the target a number more times after they're down to make sure they'll die, and the .22 being so very quiet with a silencer is a very useful aspect.
"If you end up in a firefight, you're dead anyway." I think makes sense, a bunch of guys with guns coming down on you will almost certainly have the same outcome whether your pistol is a .22 or a .45, attempting escape seems like the only approach that's at all viable.
Yes. Just the same, I like AR15s without forward assists, for lightweight builds that's viable, and the old pre A1 rifles and carbines without them are so very charming in their own way.
I only want people to know that omitting it is actually tradeoff, and they should consider if they feel it's a worthwhile one.
Sure, but fact of the matter is that the thing still lets you do remedial action. Even Karl himself will tap the bolt on an AK to make sure it's properly seated, the forward assist fulfilling that functionality when necessary.
For what it matters, much more of one than Karl is, the kid had to fight for his dear life and shoot multiple assailants within just a couple of minutes. Luck was surely on his side (for instance all the evidence being so strongly in his favor), but he was also thinking and reacting really quickly.
That said, he's no super soldier or anything, he's just a young boy, and if I want input on tactics and handling I'm more wont to give Paul Harrell the time of day, because I know he has lots of experience (and he does demonstrate his points very well), but I think that Kyle's example actually does matter, even if it's just one.
The best one.
No offense, but I find myself second guessing most of what Bartocci says. He clearly knows some things well, but he often speaks authoritatively about subjects he's actually not versed in.
Sure, read my title.
I must say, I appreciate this strongly too. Even if you think we're just a bunch of assholes, you have provided some informative posts (you clearly know your shit when it comes to polymers), and you're better behaved than probably most "Persons Of Interest"

This is true but mind the world as it was in the post-WW2/Cold War era. Fancy concealed-carry pieces like the ASP were not manufactured in large numbers and spies wouldn't carry them knowing they might have to dispose out of a custom smithed piece while leaving the country. There was no Glock 26 or Sig P365. The best attachment you could reliably get for rifles and submachine guns in most countries was a canvas sling. Police forces around the world often still used .25/.32/.380 rather than "combat" handguns and ironsights had tiny notches instead of the "quick acquisition" three dot or front dot configurations we have now so if you had a .22 you wouldn't be that outgunned.
While they used 22s for assassinations they also issued them to air marshals. Back then it was the price to pay for concealment.

They would then later go on to use them as "less lethal" crowd control.

Absolutely nobody here is saying the forward assist worked for Kyle Rittenhouse so it is the u l t i m a t e solution for AR jams. They're saying it clearly works and that there is now a widely publicized example of a literal life or death situation where the forward assist did what it was supposed to- something Karl and others have screeched about being impossible. For raging about strawmans you pretty quickly set one up yourself.

I saw Karl Kasarda(of InRangeTV) at a grocery store in Phoenix yesterday. I told him how cool it was to meet him in person, but I didn’t want to be a douche and bother him and ask him for photos or anything.
He said, “Oh, like you’re doing now?”
I was taken aback, and all I could say was “Huh?” but he kept cutting me off and going “huh? huh? huh?” and closing his hand shut in front of my face. I walked away and continued with my shopping, and I heard him chuckle as I walked off. When I came to pay for my stuff up front I saw him trying to walk out the doors with like fifteen bottles of Crisco canola oil in his hands without paying.
The girl at the counter was very nice about it and professional, and was like “Sir, you need to pay for those first.” At first he kept pretending to be tired and not hear her, but eventually turned back around and brought them to the counter.
When she took one of the bottles and started scanning it multiple times, he stopped her and told her to scan them each individually “because that can make malfunctions worse,” and then turned around and winked at me. I don’t even think that’s how it works. After she scanned each bottle and put them in a bag and started to say the price, he kept interrupting her by yawning really loudly.

Moving beyond all the forward assist sperging. Ian has began posting about desert brutality 2021 and yes he used a FAMAS.
@SinistralRifleman what did you think about DB this year? I feel it's safe to assume you're the only one here that competed this year. What did you think about adding the dmr aspect to it?

I remember my first time reading this copypasta back in like 2013 on an ARFCOM thread about Nutnfancy and I legit thought it was real and the dude actually met Nutnfancy in a grocery store lmao. I was deeply saddened to realize a few years later that It was just a copypasta.

Im curious...How many people actually attended Desert Brutality 2021? From the photos I've seen it looks like a handful of people.
The way Karl talks it up I imagined some event with 50-100 people.
I just noticed Ian pinned on his FA video..

Let us not forget, it was a M&P 15 with el cheapo ammo.
As I said before, I'd take the forward assist, too. That's precisely why it's there, to help in sub-optimal situations.

Karl and Ian are both people I would never take tactical or combat advice from, he's just being a catty cunt towards a cheap rifle.

Anyone looking for tactical or combat advice from Ian is a complete retard to begin with. The man has good historical knowledge and he reads a lot, which means he knows how things are supposed to be, according to the writers he's read or the people he's interviewed. Unfortunately, these people often assume everybody is using their gear correctly. Which is about as far from what grunts actually do as it can be.
Yeah, you don't need a forward assist if you're in a clean range, calm, collected, with a new and finely tuned gun with good ammo, and you're in a position where you can just pull the charging handle back. But clearly the army thought your average grunt would do better it they could just punch something forward (a much more natural motion than pulling something back). Again I don't like FAs myself (reciprocating charging handles, please). Thankfully, despite Ian's jacking off to Stoner's opinions the Army procurement process isn't completely idiotic. You might disagree with why something is done, but everything is done for a reason.
ETA: here's an interesting comment, pre-Rittenhouse:

Everyday the bar for "glowie" gets lower. This is pretty tame for someone with libertarian viewpoints. His Instagram is a hell of a lot more "glow" than this.So, the owner of Hoplite Armor glows. Phone posting and this archive doesn't work.
