lmao, literally "20,000 to bury this cargo container for you" versus "I'll do it for free if you tell people my name". Why the fuck wouldn't the first guy just take the investment hit for the massive advertisement and say "Well I contacted you first and I can do it for free even better".

I've looked into this guy before and his bunkers are apparently well built. The corrugated bunkers are the cheaper ones suggested for low water table areas and all the bunkers have a waterproof coating on them. If his photos and videos of Rising S bunkers are real, that company has some serious quality issues. The guy goes into detail on his manufacturing and assembly process, pointing out little things that would otherwise be overlooked by a prospective buyer. I'm not sure if there are other competitors in the bunker building space on Atlas' level.
He is a schizo and very abrasive, though. I'm not sure if a free bunker is worth it for him given his bunkers are very expensive. His least expensive square shelter cost $49k and the least expensive corrugated tube cost $58k three years ago.

The Marines were the branch most unhappy with the FA being forced on them.

Those retards also thought the M14 was better than the M16 and back in WW2 thought bolt actions were better than semi autos for fudd reasons. The marines disliking the FA should be a point in favor of it.

For Karl pointing to a SEAL complaining that his HK416 seized up, I'll hazard a guess that there's something about how the HK416 is an ungodly mutation between the AR15 and AR18 as a contributing factor. You don't get things like carrier tilt on an old SP-1 or AR180.

The bottom of the 416 bolt has a ramp in the rear to address carrier tilt. The difference in tolerancing is probably not an issue, because the FA is just a ratchet and paw system. Hard to mess that one up. In that specific case it's just the fact that the FA is not a panacea and people hitting it as a immediate reaction to a stoppage will eventually encounter the mythical bad round that causes more issues than it's worth.

Didn't they just replace their 1911s in 2019 or so?

Yeah they tried to hang on to the 1911 with the M45A1 during the 2010s but the fact is that the people who usually get to carry pistols as secondaries into combat had the choice to bring Glock 19s like the rest of SOCOM.

What sizes? Because if I'm not remembering wrong, the cheapest square shelter has less area than the cheapest corrugated tube.
You've probably seen this video doing the comparison between Atlas and Rising S
One can't deny that from this guy's presentation, Rising S is doing the "jUsT aS gOoD" thing with bunkers. From the advertising, Atlas actually seems to build stuff that could be used as an extra division on a house while Rising S is doing bunkers for people to lock themselves into and be miserable until DC stops glowing green. However, he's still big mad about the Demolition Matt and while his points are valid, it seems petty to keep bringing it up.

He definitely comes off as someone annoyingly positive. Probably praises God 10 times a day for his success too...

Has successful Veterinary office and fell into one of the lowest effort youtube content genres. Gets the YT "family friendly" bucks unlike most of guntubers as most the content is dumb enough for children.

I really don't care for his content, but I'm never going to bemoan someone for making a lot of money out of something they like doing. He gets to buy and fire a ridiculous amount and variety of guns and all he has to do is record himself being zany with them. He can probably bash out three or four videos in a single good day of work. It's a good gig if you can pull it off, and I know I couldn't.

Like we've discussed previously on this thread, that's really the saving grace of his channel. Other guntubers have said on podcasts that they were impressed when they saw Matt's fans in real life because they're mostly children. And just like videogames the channel injects a little gun culture without coming in hot with the "from my cold dead hands" spiel.

8'W 12'L 8'H for the smallest square. The mini tube is 10'W 13'H.

I saw the one from years ago where a guy who bought from Rising S wanted this guy to fix the bunker what was taking on water and rusting. It looked like RisingS used a lot of off-the-shelf prefab parts which weren't good for the use case.

If you're trying to build a community or a subculture, you gotta start young and you gotta start with entertainment. The Junior Woodchucks did a fantastic job recruiting for the Boy Scouts, much better than any troop leader showing up for lectures/demonstrations in classrooms in the 60s and 70s. If DemolitionRanch is the price to pay for a new generation of kids developing an interest in guns despite their neurotic parents' protests, I'm fine with that.

I agree with this 100%. Demos audience it teenage boys who go “woooow desert eagle? Woooooow dude”. It’s obvious that he appeals to the FPS call of duty teens who want to see their favorite “epic sniper rifle” shoot a bunch of random shit.
I still don’t like his content but I’m honestly fine with his content, don’t hate it, as long as it gets those young men interested in firearms, since there’s no gun clubs or anything for them. The only thing I’d gripe about is maybe have some videos going over basic fire arm safety on his homepage so the first thing those young men see is that, but that’s about it
