Maybe the real sound suppression was the tinnitus we developed along the way

Fun fact, if you don't wear any earpro and fire a .50cal, it will be completely silent for you

Whoever films and produces your videos need a raise. The filmography is beautiful and the filters are gorgeous, everything looks so clean...very reminiscent of MW2 etc

I love how the shot is so supressed that you can hear the sonic cracks from down the range with all that definition

I love when Micah leaves in the parts that were supposed to be edited out 😂

Okay I gotta say I am damn impressed. Taking a .50 down to hearing safe levels is no small thing. I never would have expected that kind of capability out of these cans.

As a camera boy I really appreciate the color grading in your videos. Such a simple touch that increases the quality like crazy

Holy shit the difference in the sound if your voice has changed in the last year. I remember watching this a year ago, just came back to re-cap for shits and giggles. Thanks for guiding me to SDI, you may not need to be certified to be a gunsmith but it makes all the difference in knowledge. Its like comparing the difference in the work of cheap workers outside of home depot vs a certified contractor. The signature of the work speaks for itself. I talk about guns so much nowadays and people just are shocked with the things I tell them about what I learned. Yet still, people will always talk down on SDI for “not teaching shit” but then you ask “okay, whats fire lapping?” and they pull their phone out to google it. God bless you, and if you’re reading this Micah, have some stacks of cash around you, thats how Michel Jordan survived AIDs for so long in south park.

as an armchair youtube expert id say a suppressed 50 cal makes a lot of sense

For these suppressor tests I think it would be worthwhile to use a decibel meter

I love your videos… they have helped me through some really dark times in my life battling depression.. thank you. Keep doing you

Absolutely incredible the amount of engineering to be able to shoot such a powerful round so quietly

We learned in MWII that this actually reduces the damage of the round; that is why you see the target to the side taking less damage when the suppressor is on vs when the gun is unsuppressed.

6:40 The look of pure confidence and determination on that man's face made me immediately trust him.

Great to hear the difference in sound at various distances from the muzzle, as you said difficult perhaps to identify the direction of shot.

That's interesting. I don't think small arms like that require bore evacuators, but the fact that they integrated that into that particular suppressor is pretty cool. Probably cleans out the barrel pretty good and keeps it going for a bit longer between maintenance.

The cinematic quality of these videos keeps getting better with each one. 😂

It's totally possible to suppress a .50 cal - just keep bounding from cover to cover while your team fires on the shooter's position to keep their head down. Should be a piece of cake when you get within that last 600m 😂

I love this channel. Micah’s splicing gag was subtle and priceless. Keep it up!

The difference between supressors can be heard quite well at the 500m test. You can hear that the sonic boom is at equal levels (obviously), but the following thump (actual sound of the firearm being shot) is different.

Uhhh you’re wrong. I did 3 tours on mw2 back in 09 and I can assure you a suppressed Barrett sounds like a BB gun.

that transition at 0:50 was sooooo smooth, massive props to the editor!!

i love the sound your camera produces for gunshots, nice little pre bassy boom before the actual pow

I just wanna say, Thank you Mr.Jones. You saying we need to train has kept me running. I hate running with a passion but it’s needed. But you saying we need to train just turned a switch in my head and has kept me going to the local running trail. I haven’t missed a day even though I’ve worked 12’s every day this week. So thank you again for inspiring me to be the best me.

That fire ball out of the ejector port on the first shot of the new suppressor was massive

Was lucky enough to be around one of these at a local range and when they brought out the silencer, I thought they were joking. However, it really is impressive how it tames the noise.

Great video and info, thanks so much

Wow. The action cycling sounds louder than the shot itself. Incredible.

love seeing the advancement in suppressor tech. Maybe the future generations wont have ringing ears like ours

The fact that Barrett was able to modify the M82 so that it could be suppressed is also amazing. Being short recoil operated, the amount of mass you attach to the barrel directly affects the rifle's ability to function. So whatever voodoo space magic Ronnie had to do to make that even possible is pretty fucking bad ass.

Loving these kinds of tests!

Absolutely great content as always thank you

Moral of the story: dont stand next to a .50 cal muzzle brake

Next to Facebook and twitter, that’s the biggest silencer I’ve ever seen.

man, i love the visual and sound quality of your videos

Top notch content per usual 👏🏼

12:00 That's crazy! It just sounds like a hunting rifle at a good distance. I imagine it would be a little different in person, but that's crazy quiet for a .50 cal!

Quite a few years ago, a guy at a gun range in Fernan Idaho had a suppressed Barret, even with the suppressor tech available back then, it was amazing.

hey guys, love these how it sounds to be shot at clips! in the future though see if you can lock the mic db so the comparison clips are more accurate, KEEP IT UP! love your vids.

that intro! pan right to the laying down reveal and smooth transition to the sponsor spot. 1 min in to the video and editor already earned my like.

I loved hearing shots in the range from far away the gun. It is an incredible experience really.

For when you want to take out an engine block 1500 yards from you without waking the neighbors (they were very upset last time).

I like this format very much.

That "absolutely" at 6:40 was perfectly delivered. Wonderful Ed Gein vibes right there!

I designed and build a .50 Supressor in 90’s for a Mc Millan M88 which worked very well.

Great to meet you, man. Thanks for all the great continued content.

Cool video Mr Michael and guys ! 👏❤

Naah Mieka absolutely love your off camera input always makes me chuckle haha

I really enjoy your guys' content. Very creative, lots of spent bullet casings and great humor! Keep it up Garand Thumb!

Mike, these videos are so entertaining and the information is RELEVANT, TIMELY and i have found it to be ACCURATE. Thank you.

So cool how you can hear the recoil spring vibrate when the supressor is on

Great video. Dr Steve was a nice surprise.

we used a really nice mic, headphones highly recommended

You guys are awesome! Love the educational content that y'all put out!!

I love the segway to the "get proper training" and those suppressors are nuts!!

first vid i'm seeing of u and bro i love this, good vid quality good content good humour. lik and sub instantly

Ive been running my barretta 82a1 for a while now as my home defense gun, but the slight 50 sound was always bugging me. Its awesome to see that ill finally be able to fully kit out my 82a1 and make it even more perfect for home defense!

Suppressed 50, because the only thing worse than being shot at by a 50 is not being able to pinpoint where the fire is coming from. i love it, keep it up.

the color grading of this video is phenomenal honestly. its really pretty

This video is composed so nicely, really nice shots. Filmed insanely well, looks amazing.

In the second semester of SDI certificate course. I love this course and thank you for telling me about it. Such an awesome class.

Considering that Germany made a suppressor for a tank, I shouldn't be surprised at how effective that .50 cal can was, but holy crap that's awesome.

If you’re ever bored and feel like destroying a ballistic torso, I’d be very interested to get your thoughts on 6.8 spc. For science.

I'm honestly shocked that this is even possible... Amazing.

This is quite possibly the most interesting video and entertaining. Love this one!!

It would be awesome to see you guys do a review of the .408 Cheytac rifle, comparing it to the Barrett .50 cal. Both suppressed of course.

"com-pile-ation" very much enjoyed how you say that. Oh and the rest of the vid was also VERY ENJOYABLE, many thanks.

I enjoy the mid objective you're in a GTA v heist music, Videos are great too keep it up :)

The editing has gotten so good, well done dads

I love my CGS Hyperion 7.62 suppressor. They make an absolutely awesome can. I run it on a 10.3” 300 Black Out. I’ve shot subs indoors, with no hearing protection, and it’s incredibly quiet.

I was definitely expecting it but the amount of smoke coming out of the ejection port is pretty funny

Hey Mike think you can do a video on how to stay warm in the snow/winter, what kind of pants, gloves, socks, shirts, etc. You have the best videos out there btw!

More urban survival, or cqb videos please. Learning so much from them. Thanks!

I was amazed at the choices of different types of rounds for the .50 that existed long before the GWOT.

These videos are very entertaining. Keep it up.

That suppressor is insane. It sounds like a tiny rifle with the suppressor. No sonic boom at all! That is crazy!

Thanks for the awesome content, two weeks into classes at SDI and loving it. Glad I found them through your channel.

I cannot believe how quite that barrett is, makes me wonder how expensive those suppressors are

My favorite video to date.

Got to shoot a suppressed Barrett 50 cal in 2015 at an INDOOR range! There were a group of Barrett Reps there at the range one day letting folks give it a shot and I happen to be shooting 3 lanes over from where they set up shop, so I was practically first in line

Can you imagine how quiet it’d get if it was an over-barrel suppressor too

Dude, super dope that you brought in a professional whom built the suppressors.

shooters depot in corpus christi tx developed their "aries" system suppressor that suppressed their barrett . amazing how quiet it became. it's a system that works brilliantly on everything . the drawback is it's bulky . but quiet.

Love it. Might have to upgrade from the M82A1 to the 107 just for the can.

Can we all be impressed with how easily/comfortably Micah shot a 29" barrel m107 with a suppressor off hand.

I always look forward to your videos mike, keep up the awesome work!

8:57 RIGHT? That IS ridiculous, Mike. Holy mackerel!

hey GT, with that very fancy microphone and that land and your wide array of boomsticks, have you ever thought about making a library of gun sounds for movies and vidya games, so they can stop getting the sounds so horribly wrong? Because these videos where you have the camera get shot at are one of a kind, nobody else has done it with such high quality equipment

5:54 - Didn’t do much for accuracy though… couldn’t even hit that log!

This vid is gold!

Just an extremely enjoyable sound to behold my ears!!! 👊🧡👍 5:59

Wow I am blown away, I was not expecting it to be that effective

Perfect for when someone breaks into your house at night and you cannot find your ear pro.

If you want to see skip to see him shoot the gun with the suppressor 5:22

Is Mike not just the best host to ever have had hosted? Serious knowledge. With a high dose of comedy. Love you Mike

Yes it’s possible! Barrett makes a suppressor for their M107 rifle and it’s pretty darn quiet for what it is. But the can itself is a few thousand dollars. Which is most likely with this video is as I’m typing this lol

Who needs a supresor when neither you or your target can hear anything?

The flame out of the ejection port is wild.

that is definitely the coolest thing I ever seen in KZfaq. what it sounds like when you are getting shot at. PLEASE MORE OF THAT AND GET CAMARA CLOSE TO WHERE BULLET HITS. (LIKE A TARGET OR GROUND) the good old movies bullets hit near you, I think that would cool too

“Pringles can” about says it all. I am still under an NDA but I worked with an engineer developing new suppressors. It is amazing the engineering that goes into them. This .50 cal suppressor has some Red Hot Chili Peppers in it.
