Intro Song: “Issa Trap” by Mikey Geiger
Whistling diesel, range safety officer of the year
I have a sig ratter in 556/223 and it is definitely something I would shoot anything with from 100 yards in. I use some hot 223 loads and drop pigs all day. It is all about shot placement. I have hit a huge hog in the shoulder with a 308 20in barrel and he ran off and I never found him. Hit one it the head with my rattler and he dropped instantly. Anything works if you know how to utilize it in the scenario it is built for.
Under 8 you are wasting your time….
7.5" 300blk…for 100yds and under (home defense build)
16" 5.56 for 100 -300yds
20" 308 for everything else
When you can get the barrel in a full size hand gun, then you know that’s the limit, not withstanding joker style revolvers, lol
Damn u Clint now I want the 45 carbine pistol
Söön, it’s supposed to be 20” as Gaawd and mr Stoner intendeeed.
Can someone please tell me where to get a mlok flag like he has at 1:12. I’ve been looking and cannot find anything like what he has on his rifle
What kind of hand guard are you running on the first rifle you shot in this video? I have a fixed front sight on my AR and that extra hand guard section looks great
We’re not even going to talk about the Rock River Arms RUK-15 5.56mm 4.5"???
Hey Clint, did you ever decide to give that 4.5 copperhead away? If not, I’d be honored to adopt and give him a lovely home. Promise i’ll feed him 3 mags a day! : )
I have a really short 7.62×39 pistol that destroys muzzle brakes. I think the burning power outside the barrel literally cuts though the metal. Anyone have a suggestion on how to prevent this?
What is the holster for the FNX45T???
My 7.5” barrel ar is pretty badass
Anything shorter than 11.5 inches is when 556 is worthless. The beauty of SNG’s vs carbine assault rifles is that SMG’s arent concussive, loud or firework machines.
Great vid. Thanks for the break down
Is he from dudeperfect
Shorter barrels are cool and good, but you really need the right cartridge to go with it. A pistol length 5.56 makes no sense. Loud, blasty, big fireball, but poor performance, loss of velocity, small caliber, etc. But, some people just don’t care and think loud and blasty is a "feature", lol.
No talk about the maxim defense pdx… wtf
I’m down sizing my 300 BLK Out from a 10.5 to a 8, strictly for home defense.
love the trigger auto for conflicts in big places with big wide tank runs
So would this be considered a pistol ? What’s the smallest barrel I can get and it still be considered a rifle
You know you are OLD when you consider the standard
barrel length for an AR-15 to be 20 inches.
I was looking for the 5 1/2" ar pistol. I’d like to see a comparison on bullet speed lost, accuracy lost and so on.
Did you put a pdx in the thumbnail and not feature it? May have missed it
7.5 556 is dumb yes but for range fun its great
Perfect video this is just what I needed thank you💯👌🏾
When ATF shoot your dogs and knocks down your door.
I stayed with minimum of 16” for my 5.56 or 308 rifles & own a 7” & 10.3” 300 Blackout. Just made the most since to me to go with 300 Blackout for anything less than 10.5 for best effectiveness. That is just my setup preferences.
a great giveaway
i bought a 5.56 7.5" ar. can confirm the thing is concusive af. not fun to shoot.
pray for me yall
Oh damn y’all are only an hour from Charlotte!
SBR…
have a 7.5 ati omni ar pistol that shoots 556/223 and was wanting to put a longer barrel on it for home defense. how hard would it be.
Nice work cameraman
How come the sig mcx rattler in 5.56 is so popular/desirable even though it has a 5.5” barrel which is supposed to be suboptimal for that cartridge in terms of velocity and accuracy at greater distances? Thx in advance
Under 10.5 that is all.
Below 10 inches, basically.
Just don’t tell anyone you put a vert grip on an at pistol and if they come try and snatch it cap em in the head it’s America! A2 is a right! no ones taking it away
The 10.5" looks a bit over gassed.
Can you shoulder that buffer tube?
What grip do you got on the 10inch
Super informative! Thank you! 👊🏻💪🏻

What gun is to the right(your left) of the copperhead, maxim?
I was thinking about buying one of the 9mm style pistol/rifle/ boom stick. Lol but free sounds like an amazing price.
If I’m running anything shorter than a 12.5 automatically has a 22lr conversion. It is courtesy to others and I want to limit my exposure to that much noise.
were u running sub or super ammo on the BLK????
GIMME DAT SIG
16 inches is too short
