General GunTuber thread

[Only A Retard Sometimes]

I guess it's not a lot but his last video he put a Holosun ontop an ACOG. Blasphemous.

I just don't fuck with Chinesium and I guess I'm an RMR fan

his response to that would be that buying american is nice and all but US optics are so bad that its not worth the loss of function vs chinesium.

New Guntuber arc when?


IMO the boogaloo bois ruined Hawaiian shirts, they just scream “I am carrying a gun right now”

The bar is so low now for guntubers that all he has to do is not troon out and people will like his content.

He can call it LobsterOnTheRange or some shit.

The obsessive weirdos still keep shitting on the RPG dude like they think they know what Ian thinks of the guy. God these people are insufferable.

What is up with the shipping policy on their site?

We cannot ship [Functional Electromagnetic Accelerators] to the following locations:

• States: Delaware, Illinois, New Jersey, Rhode Island, District of Columbia
• Counties: King County (WA)
• Cities: Seaside (CA), Bridgeport (CT), Stratford (CT), New York (NY), Brooklyn (NY), Bronx (NY), Staten Island (NY), Queens (NY), Glen Oaks (NY), Floral Park (NY), Yonkers (NY), Buffalo (NY), Rochester (NY) Philadelphia (PA), York (PA)

Have there really been that many places that have already banned gauss rifles or are they just being overly cautious by avoiding areas with known corrupt prosecutors?

Read a few lines above what you quoted:

We consider all fully assembled coilguns and railguns (hereafter referred to as Functional Electromagnetic Accelerators or “FEA”) as air rifles for the purpose of determining legality in your home location.
(...)
There are areas to which Arcflash Labs, LLC cannot ship FEA. Certain states and municipalities have established certain limitations with respect to air rifles, and Arcflash Labs, LLC reserves the right not to ship particular products to certain locations.

These things are somehow considered "air rifles" and a few places have banned those through the years.

Also, the ArcFlash guys are probably walking on eggshells since there is no mechanical way to guarantee one of their devices can't be fired in full-auto. If they ever become popular or get noticed by the wrong politician, expect a big push to ban or restrict the sale of their coilguns and kits.

Since it caught my eye I looked through the York, PA code to see what might be objectionable, nothing. So the latter maybe?

Especially since PA has preemption. That's been proven out by case law - by an autistic furry no less.

ETA: Oh yeah they're weird about pellet guns there. Kind of like MI, where you had to buy them from an FFL (no 4473 or anything, just buy from an FFL) until like ten years ago.

Speaking of Gauss cannons. This is one of the only Demolition Ranch videos I actually watched the majority of. At 6:00 GT shows off a burst. Seems like it would be a pretty great crowd control weapon.

At the moment it looks like scaling gauss cannon down to realistic/usable dimensions, sacrifices a lot of performance. The Arcflash anvil weighs 20lbs.

if they are considered airguns i dont think full auto would be illegal.

But that's not true

It's still very much a technology in the embryonic stage, and it's limited by power storage capabilities. But it's there, and you never know when Tesla or some other company will get a storage breakthrough that then filters down to the consumer level after a few years.

Yes, which is why I mentioned it drawing the attention of the wrong politician. Because one of those will try to make it illegal. A weapon that only requires electricity to fire and can be loaded with homemade projectiles? That's a nightmare for gun grabbers.

Close your eyes and you can see the headlines on CNN and MSNBC. Electric assault guns: fully automatic computerized terror. They've done this with black rifles before. And if a kid brings even one of these low-powered "pistols" to school there will be a whole other song and dance even if he doesn't shoot anyone. Sure, they likely won't get a blanket ban to stick nationwide, but they'll damn well try.

A lot of these states supposedly have smart gun laws that, when the first "smart gun" goes on market all traditional firearms become illegal. Electric ignition might be a trigger IDK. that was part of why the remington electronx (electric ignition model 700) died i think.

New angle, they are EPGs
Electricity Powered Guns.
Just add a solar cell and call it green, zero carbon footprint!
MAGNETS!

People were a little afraid of that. Etronx wasn't anywhere near a 'smart gun' though. That's like user authentication technology and shit that will basically never work.

 

[Uranus Pink]

Afaik electric ignition only been successful in finding a niche with muzzle and breechloaders. For replacing percussion caps and ease of cleaning.

Airguns capable of killing have been a thing since Napoleon. Nobody will really care unless they are somehow as good as powder guns. And at that point the wrong politicians will try to ban them because they're real guns at that point.

Clearly, some politicians already think your average BB gun is as good as powder guns since they're banned/regulated in so many states/counties already.

I'm sorry to spoil your scifi fanfiction. Clearly coil guns will be regulated as fully automated assault machine guns in our lifetime because gun unfriendly states are unfriendly to airguns too.

If we're going to speculate about future regulation I'm more excited to see how 3D printed guns develop. You can 3D print coilguns already if you really want to stick with that.

I have simple needs, like propelling a small projectile to a relativistic velocity high enough to vaporize solid tungsten on impact.
