How Effective is a 7.5 Inch AR-15?

How Effective is a 7.5 Inch AR-15?

With the help of reliable barrels and good pistol braces 7.5″ AR-15s are getting more and more popular. In this video I go over some of the reasons why an AR this small could be a good tool to add to your daily carry setup.

    Head or crotch shot will take care of vest issues!

    what a stupid video—total waste of time



  4. SycoDad on August 28, 2022 at 8:11 pm

    25 yard zero. At 25 yards that thing should hit the "head" of that steel target every round at the rate you were firing.

    Cool video but you’ve said some of the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard like you put it in a backpack and take it with you to church🧐



  6. Angelo Perry on August 28, 2022 at 8:13 pm

  7. Robert Brown on August 28, 2022 at 8:15 pm

    I understand why many don’t like the 7 inch barrels and how a full length is just flat out accuracy but def im building my Pistol for close quarter combat 50yrds or less just love the fact how agile one can be compared to long length barrels. Also have my other AR for typically 300yrds out.



  9. John Dotter on August 28, 2022 at 8:17 pm

    Good for close quarters!



  10. Master Xiong on August 28, 2022 at 8:19 pm

    Is it effective: yes



  11. hdtvcamera1 on August 28, 2022 at 8:20 pm

    The best shooters always say, they don’t want to embarrass themselves, right before they hit shots us mortals wouldn’t



  12. Randell Darky on August 28, 2022 at 8:21 pm

    I use soft point ammo in My 8" AK. That’s My very destructive tip.



  13. Mobile Gamers Unite on August 28, 2022 at 8:23 pm

    I won’t go lower than 10.5 or 10.3 inch barrel. I love my MK18



  14. Sean James on August 28, 2022 at 8:24 pm

    My Aero 7.5 will cycle anything



  15. Andres soto on August 28, 2022 at 8:25 pm

    That plate got dented bad..



  16. Kaleb Hendron on August 28, 2022 at 8:26 pm

    Anyone got a 7.5 inch Anderson?



  17. tim b on August 28, 2022 at 8:26 pm

    What was the velocity of the 55gr?

    Love this guy already.

    Christian prophecies claim (Dimitri Dudeman and others) that America will be attacked by China and Russia and invaded. Praying that is not true. But some things are written in stone in the spiritual world. Save up all your energy boys.



  20. Nicholas Gerfen on August 28, 2022 at 8:27 pm

    Very helpful video. Thank you



  21. Luke Thompson on August 28, 2022 at 8:29 pm

    How long is your rail? 7” or 7.5”?



  22. ky gun guy on August 28, 2022 at 8:29 pm

    My 7.5 with a 1/7 twist chronos at 2400 to 2240 or so with 55 grain fmjs plenty of power seen a video on here of a women hitting a 6×6 target made of treated lumber 4 and a half inches thick not including the back stop thats quarter inch plywood at 200 yards with a red dot it goes thru all 4 1/2 inches of wood and the back stop and hers was a 7 inch barrel they have plenty of power they only loose around 700 fps or less going under 16 inches and there just as accurate I like my 7.5



  23. Nuriddin fdnyguy1677 on August 28, 2022 at 8:37 pm

    If I had something like that and an active shooter situation or at least five magazines or six and my handgun I will probably stay in the chance because now the active shooter now knows that he can be or they can be challenged that’s why they kill themselves when arm resistance show up



  24. Chknwayne on August 28, 2022 at 8:43 pm

    Uhh good gun uhh close quarters uhh



  25. Mabs on August 28, 2022 at 8:44 pm

    even tho the barrel is 7.5
    the bullet still comes out
    and will kill u
    that’s all u need lmao
    ezpz



  26. Gordon Gonzales on August 28, 2022 at 8:45 pm

    Iv got a PSA 7.5 bbl ar. If regular pistol calibers only travel 900 to 1500 fps then a ar15’s velocity is oky doky for me.



  27. Carlos Garza on August 28, 2022 at 8:47 pm

    With todays’ losers assaulting people, I need this for protection!



  28. Nicholas QUINTERO on August 28, 2022 at 8:48 pm

    I’m going to guess that you’re a cop. How do I know? The one sentence you said about engagement distances. Cops always think in terms of liability. Not a criticism just an observation. Also M85 will penetrate even 4a from Spartan Armor (armor expiration day testing). 😉



  29. Child of the sun3 on August 28, 2022 at 8:49 pm

    Take it to church 😂🤣



  30. GOD For Real on August 28, 2022 at 8:50 pm

    Did anyone ever see that scene and Talladega nights where Ricky Bobby won his 1st race?



  31. Jeff Grey on August 28, 2022 at 8:51 pm

    I carry one at work behind my passenger seat



  32. ajhill32 on August 28, 2022 at 8:52 pm

    How much does your optic cover the flashlight mounted on top of the pistol?



  33. Dad does Things on August 28, 2022 at 8:52 pm

    This seems a little extra for concealed carry…. I love it.



  34. MRAP on August 28, 2022 at 8:53 pm

    30 on the hip, 20 in the bag and a sidearm…what is this in Gary Indiana yikes



  35. Anonymous on August 28, 2022 at 8:53 pm

    I don’t care what anyone says, it packs 1200+fps on any 3 inch CCW pistol. But if you still have something to say, hold your arm out, and let me put one in your arm at 20 feet, then let me know how ineffective that round was huh?



  36. Special K on August 28, 2022 at 8:54 pm

    How effective is the shooter is the real deal



  37. ZAZEN RISE on August 28, 2022 at 8:55 pm

    I just got off of forum and everybody’s like seven. 5 inches doesn’t give him much velocity blah blah blah blah… Looks like those little things are penetrating pretty deep in that steel plate



  38. MegaAppleshit on August 28, 2022 at 8:55 pm

    7.5 inch 5.56 is plenty effective at home defense distance, but I would go 300 Blackout for a barrel that short. 110 grain 300 blk supers are more effective than 5.56, but 5.56 is probably better than 300 blk subs(all depends on your load tbh), but if you have a can, 300 blk subs are a good option if you value your hearing. 300 blk subs are almost identical to 45acp terminal ballistics wise only with a much higher capacity than any 45 pistol and a much better BC so they will penetrate deeper. Definitely not a bad option no matter what you choose.



  39. Thompson Daniel on August 28, 2022 at 8:56 pm

    What grain bullets are you using



  40. SKAN1CRUCIAL on August 28, 2022 at 8:56 pm

    He said u could take it to church if u want to wtf 😂😂😂



  41. Roger Palacios on August 28, 2022 at 8:57 pm

    Does the folding stock/brace qualify this particular AR as an SBR? Or can a folding brace still be classified as a pistol?



  42. Forest Finegan on August 28, 2022 at 8:59 pm

    SUK ASS VIDEO OF A GUY BASICALLY BRAGGING ABOUT HIS TOOL.



  43. DaQuann Simmons on August 28, 2022 at 9:01 pm

    Take it to church huh! Hmmm ok Dylan



  44. Jesse Woodward on August 28, 2022 at 9:01 pm

    Chaw



  45. Kyle Korver Jr on August 28, 2022 at 9:01 pm

    Is that a light on top of the barrel???? That’s sick. Can I get the link or name of it? I’m picking up a stag arms 7.5” FDE tomorrow



  46. Matt on August 28, 2022 at 9:03 pm

    A bit long winded.



  47. Satan'sMyBitch on August 28, 2022 at 9:05 pm

    Ineffective over 100yds and blinds you at night loud af.. Semi cancelable



  48. J N on August 28, 2022 at 9:06 pm

    Is that a built in suppressor? What kind of strap is that?



  49. BrianVeliz on August 28, 2022 at 9:06 pm

    Minute 3:33, you are wrong. I hit targets at 100 yards with my 7,5inch AR pistol. It’s 7,5 inch not 3 inch barrel, it still has a lot of accuracy.



  50. John Schall on August 28, 2022 at 9:07 pm

    I know one thing, it’s LOUD!!!!
