Because it's milled and therefore too heavy for a sheepdawg in tactical operations operating operationally. This is the same man who has a converted Saiga that he runs without a cleaning rod to reduce weight and, in his own words, "improve barrel harmonics."
The funniest nutn video is still the one where he "runs" a mile in rifle plates. It's nonstop comedy.
So he knows absolutely dick about AKs, infantry, or "operating".

To be fair, everyone 10-15 years ago thought removing the cleaning rod would help barrel harmonics.
 
So Russell was complaining on Reddit that people were contacting him about SBRing there WWSD. He made a post saying to stop sending him messages.

They used to tell people "Please contact KE Arms if you intend to register your KP-15 lower receiver as a NFA weapon" on their website. So no fucking wonder Russell...
I just realize you have to send Russell a message if you plan on SBRing your WWSD lower.

It's so they can handpick and test your lower before you pay the ATF $200 and get stuck with a lemon?

This is why I don't like Russell, he comes off a smug towards any criticism, critique, or confusion.

And again the fact you have to drill your receiver to remove the safety is DUMB. They used to drill them for you, but they kept "breaking too many drills". Make a drill bit guide fixture or SOMETHING.
If you need a proprietary selector with your lower, you should include it to show the real price of the WWSD stripped lower: $150

Speaking of, they've since announced they're making a WWSD lower that accepts glock mags.
Which then leads to him posting one half of the mold which can confirm suspicions about the early alignment issues. With any amount of warping the two halves of the buttstock just flop all over the place.

I would love to see the core side of the mold, but I don't think they have shown it.
 
Hiya fellas. I have been following your thread about Karl for a while now with a lot of interest. I'm a member of the gun industry media myself and I wanted to add my worthless two cents to a point. A lot of you understandably think Ian is not political or "right of center"/ "libertarian" Yea he seems so in videos. He is not. Among the gun media that have met him , interacted with him ,know him personally or have dealt with him personally like I have, it is well known Ian is a leftist shitlib. He is also a very giant pretentious asshole.

A few will admit it to you in private if you ask them. No one talks about it openly of course. You know this because gun writers never shit talk each other. Of course no one wants to risk getting on tthe bad side of Ian's giant fanbase by shattering their illusion that Ian is some super nice gun jesus character that's some innocent, loveable autistic guy who knows a lot about old shit. Most gun rags and the old guard are already ( rightfully) dying so they ain't about to risk it.

Everyone knows it though.

Just ask yourself what kind of "live and let live" or pro liberty guy would have a guy and business partner like Karl as a friend for so long? Would you partner up your business and brand and good name with a big commie statist SJW unless you didn't kinda agree with it yourself?

Yes, I joined to post that.

Sorry if it hurt feelings or offended I'll make up for it.

It's all made up. Ian is a terrific person that is pals and business partners with a hardcore leftist, and that in no way says anything about his own personalty or political views. There, that better?
Carry on with whatever version of reality you prefer.

He's saying shit I've heard for years from people that have actually interacted with Ian. It's why I've always said he's a shit eating liberal even when people in this thread have ree'd that their precious gun Jesus can never be a communist.

Ed: as I've said before as well, most of my information came before Ian got famous and was just another dip shit off the grid survivalist. Everyone I know who has interacted with him in the past have said he's a huge asshole.

See, I'm not very inclined to believe you because you showed up here without any evidence, and you're engaging in a lot of very shitlib-like guilt by association.

So, in the most neutral terms I can find: do you have any direct evidence of Ian's political leanings one way or the other? Any verified recording of him stating them? Any writings that are confirmed as being by him? Any obscure old articles archived off ForgottenWeapons.com where he talks about his thirst for tranny cock? Anything at all?

The problem is, that's all hearsay if no one can provide any recording of it. So even if he is a dirty, dirty liberal (guess what, so am I), he must be very good at keeping it out of sight.

And that's what matters. So long as the guy keeps dumbass politics out of his product, I'm fine with it. if I only consumed things produced by people I completely and overtly agreed with, I'd have starved to death 35 years ago.

Oh of course it's all hearsay, it's about as convincing as I have an uncle at Nintendo when discussing it on the internet. My point though is I'm more inclined to believe this guy because I've heard the same thing from people I trust for years. I personally don't dislike Ian for his (alleged) politics though that doesn't help. I dislike him because something about his general personality and face that makes me want to beat him to a pulp. It's like when you see/meet someone and you just inexplicably instantly dislike them for no rhyme or reason.

I don't have any reason to believe Ian is a liberal, just as I don't have any reason to disbelieve it. What matters to me is what he does. If he is a card-carrying commie, he's done pretty well swallowing back whatever ideology he may hold in his heart of hearts so he could talk to old gun designers in South Africa (big no-no for progressives) about Rhodesian guns, or to very old, very conservative dudes (the kinds who still say "Jap" unironically) about their experiences. His few public views on guns seem to be very positive for the community: being big on safety and training, and not liking the NFA.

Whether or not he's a liberal (and I say that as a pretty liberal guy), despite any foibles, quirks, personality traits or sins he might bear as a person, he's the kind of guy I'm happy to see as a public figure for the hobby. He looks reasonable, he doesn't rant, he provides good historical content, and his videos aren't wall-to-wall ages-18-to-35 fratboy sophomoric bullshit. At least for now, I give him respect. If he swerves into insanity I'll be the first to call him out. As it is it's just dumb to try to lump him with a bona-fide lolcow like Karl "Kommie" Kasarda.

I dislike him because something about his general personality and face that makes me want to beat him to a pulp. It's like when you see/meet someone and you just inexplicably instantly dislike them for no rhyme or reason.
I get you. I have the same issue with DemolitionRanch. Even the guy's VetRanch videos make me want to reach through the screen and punch him mid-intro, and he's helping goddamn puppies on those.

. Oh, and his obsession with ounces.
I do agree that ounces make pounds and pounds make pain but at some point you have to stop being a pussy and either get stronger or gut through it.

I'm not watching 45 minutes of pure, undistilled autism.... But does he really think the SAM7 is a bad rifle? That thing is one of the best AKs ever imported and that we can still get our hands on in current year import market.
Not only does he think its bad, but that it doesn't hold up to the gold standard of the c39v2.

Well, the C39 has patented self lightening technology whereby the receiver explodes so I can see why he would call it the gold standard.

See, it's shit like that which makes me believe the opposite of what you say as to be true; and you couldn't be bothered to come up with anything more original than old shitflinging from reddit. Is that the first thing your doctorate in Google found for you?

So, what happened to you? Personally? Because a lack of anything just makes it sound like you're pissed he's drank Karl's milkshake. All of it.
