I know of a lot of Flandre's weird shit, and for some reason I should be surprised but all I can do is just glaze my eyes over this in the most, "Yeah that happened" kind of way. /k/ always sucked. It just did so in different ways.
I find it to be less interesting to discuss tactics and defer to more experienced people to do so since the nature of understanding tactics does not lend itself as well to a priori reasoning as mechanical principles. There is also the point of if I had talked about tactics that I would be contributing nothing new to the extant discourse, whereas I am contributing what none of the other guntubers or professionals are saying or are able to say about Rittenhouse and the forward assist. Of course there's plenty to learn about Rittenhouse beyond the forward assist, but even then it was quite clear to most people aware of his use of the device that there is also something to learn from here about it being used exactly within the original rationale that the Army had used to justify it in the first place. Furthermore, we had the forward assist revealed to us after the conclusion of the trial and all most of us had concluded our thoughts on the tactical or procedural things related to his actions more broadly; it was basically timed to be considered in isolation from the rest of the events.
KIAGF-15
Karl would prefer the Penis..
I kinda want to do this, but I do not wish to google "AR-15 dick grip .stl"
I dont think anything he did was that legally unsound considering he was acquitted and the prosecutor is now a laughing stock.
Oh, c'mon now would you rather be talking about fetuses and pigs, magazines and vaginas, the tactical and civil considerations of Kyle Rittenhouse (and not add anything that hasn't already been said), and making a troll video about some "who asked" -tier shotgun and red dot video (the forefront of the modern arms dilemmas), or would you rather try and arrive at a better understanding of the AR-15?
Fair enough. The M&P Sport II comes with a gen 2 PMAG. What kind of generational issue could it be with a new magpul magazine and gun? Gen 1s and EMAGs are extremely rare these days and it's not like he has a euro magwell or m855a1 coupled with so many hundreds of tungsten tipped rounds feed ramp wear. He had only bought the rifle (and any other magazines) a few months prior, so it's not like they even had time to split down the seam if they were loaded 24/7.
Not that I recall. The thing was he had a factory clean and lubed rifle, shot 120-150 rounds through it and worst case never did anything other than that. I made a point in my second video to show exactly what state the rifle was given to Kyle by showing an unboxing video precisely to know how much lubrication we could have expected to have on his rifle in anticipation of this argument. Military AR-15s are expected to be put through much worse conditions than not having the best lube available or the most minimal friction coefficient environment. How much sand, carbon, or mud do you think was in his rifle? I don't think it had anything wrong with it besides the 120 rounds of carbon fouling and not having the most extreme heavy duty grade slip ewl 2000 crisco frogshit cumlube available. It doesn't seem like it would fall outside the envelope of what an issued rifle could face. While the newer phosphate carrier could have very likely had some higher degree of friction, certainly it wouldn't be a worse condition than being in a dusty desert, a muddy place, or some extreme arctic condition? His jam seems entirely within the scope of what any AR-15 could face within the context of general martial conditions.
I was never upset that the WWSD didn't have a forward assist on its own; it makes sense given that Stoner was opposed to it then in the 60's with the congressional hearings, in the 80's with the Stoner tapes, and in the 90's with the SR-25. Karl could have just ended it there and no one would give him shit over it. The thing is he thinks what Stoner thought about it, what is right, and what he thinks are all the same thing. It being a "slickside" upper and being limited in scope to what Stoner would do is good enough on that point at least. Karl routinely oversteps his justification beyond that which is wrong about its history, causality (of producing FTEs), and is largely ignorant of its functionality. When he and (and Ian to a lesser extent) speak to this further scope beyond Stoner's intent is where my issue lies and where they are giving out bad information that I am attempting to clear up. That's the problem with what Karl does, he oversteps the scope of the WWSD intent beyond making a rifle Stoner would and perhaps without even realizing it starts making concessions or preferential choices that suit him or a/his general audience's purposes at the cost of what Stoner would actually/did choose to do.
Funny enough not all WWSD2020's could do that without ejecting the magazine either.
That's my point. You can't say that one rifle made with the same or similar enough features to another can be better based on a brand name with certainty. You would actually need to somehow test them. Most people don't have SOTAR tier gauge setups, but there are simple and easy things to check for like the bolt ring test, gas tube alignment, and so on. I'm currently arranging for a test on chambering resistance, its variables, and trying to validate a second simple test that most anyone could do at home and further understand the "quality" of their own guns as it relates to chambering so that we don't have to play this hypebeast brand game. So far this simple test has been used it to identify a BCG that had a broken 5 coil sprinco extractor spring that was still somehow not ejecting rounds strangely enough for the user to notice. This way instead of feeding into shills reviewing guns people can just buy a gun and replace some simple and cheap parts if need be. Hopefully this should work for the vast majority of people in helping better tune their guns for manufacturers and their little shortchanged tricks they do (with part/gas port size selection) to avoid bad reviews from the most casual and retarded of gun buyers.
I'm the first in nearly 60 years to have posted empirical evidence of it not being causal to FTEs. If anyone can do it, I honestly think I am the one.
Buy a mirror, please.
As opposed to what? Theorizing about what would Stoner do? You stupid faggot.
On the contrary, "Kyle needed to use the FA since fully retracting the charging handle 1 inch out of battery causes a double feed" coupled with a demonstration isn't theoretical, it's just a fact. "Kyle would have been better served by using the charging handle" is merely a theory of Karl's that cannot be demonstrated since it is not true and since he's publicly stating such it's clear he hasn't tested it. Do you think Karl shoots more or less than me without knowing this simple fact?
Dude, that's like... fucking mean. Those loops would really hurt.
Give it a real Romanian dong.
