We replicate convoy dust conditions and torture an Arsenal SLR104FR (AK74 in 5.45x39) with horrific moon dust, filth and rocks.
The AK didn't handle the InRange mud test all that well but how will it do with dust and sand?

The best non combat test the US Army has is the NIC crawl at Army basic. You drag through sand and it gets all over and inside the weapon, and they generally have us clean it majorly so afterwards or risk of malfunction. Had people that did not clean have no issues and others that did.

This same AK will turn into a bolt action in the mud test and the AR had no malfunctions in that test ran like it was clean. The HK556 which may replace the m4, failed the mud test worse than the AKM. Piston blocks the gas flow to clean out the BCG like eugene intended The HK556 does far better than the ar system in dust according to testing by our military, but is it worth throwing away the ability to fight in a muddy trench? The hk 556 turned into a paper weight in the mud test Hopefully all future wars are only fought in dry environments which the hk556 was designed to do better in and may be our next service rifle idk

I think what these tests do, alongside the mud tests, is serve to destroy the notion that theres a singular quality of "reliable". Different systems are resilient against different stresses, and any assessment of the quality or usefulness of a system has to account for which of those stresses the system can expect to encounter in actual use.

I used to run a huge beadblasting machine in a casting plant, and the ceramic dust that came out and was collected in a bin was so fine that if you picked it up with a shovel it would pour off the end like water. They made us wear masks whenever we emptied the bin but it was pretty much everywhere. I imagine it played a large part in most of the reliability issues the machines tended to exhibit.

These are the sort of conditions the AK has earned its reputation for reliability under. The mud test is pretty extreme (but even then, it goes to show that the rifle is still easy to strip down and clean with just a bit of water and a rag), but this super fine dust test perfectly simulates the sort of conditions AKs have been so successfully employed in for decades.

That rig of Karl's might have an oil bath filter in which case all he need do is regularily clean out the old oil and put in fresh (oil bath oil, not crank oil) and there would be no issues. When Mount St. Helens blee and Boise Idaho got covered by the downwind volcanic Ash cloud they destroyed all the engines in their public works vehicles that they ran around the clock during the emergency (lots of traffic accidents due to bad visibility in the ash cloud, and many people with medical respretary problems) EXCEPT some of the older trucks the city had in their fleet that had old oil bath air filter systems. They continued working just fine with just changing out the oil in the filter bath and within 48-hrs those were the only city vehicles still running !!! So when the proverbial turd hits the proverbial fan or in moon dust desert conditions you want to have an oil bath filter system and I think Karl's vehicle has one if I remember correctly.

Having dealt with this a lot in outback Australia, its not as bad as you'd think. Not only are air intake locations chosen to reduce dust, but airbox designs are pretty good at dropping most larger particles before they hit the elements (and despite how fine this seems, its large vs the normally filtered dust in air). Finally you can remove the filters and blow them down with air (careful not to put a hole in it with close nozzles and high pressure) or even just tap them on the bumper bar to shed most of the dust. If your doing a LOT of it, getting a snorkel with cyclonic pre-cleaner will drop most of the dust every time you turn the engine off, and K&N and others sell filters you clean, oil and reuse for most makes and models, although with those if your car has a hot wire intake air sensor, I'd advise swapping it out for another style, or else at minimum removing it and spraying with a cleaner a couple of times after you re-oil the aircleaner.

Something I noticed with AR=type rifles is that in dusty environments lube can mix in with the dust to create a muddy substance and when it gets into parts like the safety detent spring it can bind up and make it extremely difficult if not impossible to manipulate your safety. Though doesn't happen immediately; I've only seen it happen on rifles with a few months in desert environments. But small parts like that aren't going to be cleaned by soldiers/Marines because they're not authorized to break the weapon down that far, which is one of the strengths of the AK. There aren't really any small parts you have to worry about during field stripping, or tiny springs binding up or breaking due to corrosion/dust. Really the smallest spring on the AK is for the muzzle device detent, and that's not even really necessary for primary function. As opposed to the AR which has the aforementioned safety detent spring, front/rear takedown pin detent springs (Which I have seen Marines lose before), etc.

I was a gunner on a humvee in Iraq Dec 2004- Feb 2006. Escorted convoys and did MSR patrols. Your moondust is very comparable to the real deal. To the best of my ability, I ran my weapons as dry as possible. Random convoy dust experience with various weapons. Your mileage may vary...... Mk19: got updated spring kits in maybe Jan 05. Had no problems and it ran like a beast. LSA-T liberally on the tracks that the bolt rides in and contact surfaces. Nowhere else. Old brown t-shirt rag taught over the top of ammo can to keep the dust out. M249 para: champ. Mostly dry but little dab’l do ya on bolt track and the little feeding pawls in the top cover. Either mili-tec or lsa-t M9: would get cruddy even in an old bianchi flap that I brought myself. Worked but needed constant attention. Militec on contact surfaces on frame only. Didn’t use it much besides shooting a few tail lights so wasn’t put to the test as much as others. No fancy mags, just rotated them out every month or so and they did ok. Mossberg 500: (not 590) would also get cruddy. But it stayed in the hatch exposed. Did okay but tube gommed up a couple times requiring complete stripdown. M2: slathered in CLP until the crud ran out. You’d know somebody had been rockin’ the 50 cause their face and vest would be covered in black splotches from the Lube. Myself and some older guys were good at tuning (HS/timing) them so that helped. My buddies with m4’s ran as dry as they could also militec in little dab’l do ya ammounts and did fine. Never heard of issues with the 203’s Never got to shoot the AT-4 but I’m betting it was fine ;) Like I said your mileage might vary or been varied back in the day. We sampled the dust from scania to speicher along msr tampa and most dust between and that’s just like, my opinion, man.

Kudos to inrangeTV, I think this is one of the best reliability tests yet. literally shoveling piles of mud into an open weapon action versus a closed weapon action was a rather silly exercise in demonstrating the inevitable. This test on the other-hand realistically demonstrates conditions very frequently faced by soldiers ,i'd even wager being faced right now as we speak and the AK really lived up to its name. It took basically pouring dust into its internal mechanism and magazines to make it stop (which as far as I know isn't a frequently faced condition in real life) and even then it probably couldve been gotten running half way reliably without any disassembly or significant maintenance. You can really see the appeal the weapon must have to militas, gangs, civilians and terrorists who often have total neglect for proper weapon maintenance, its the gun worlds equivalent of that old TV that always gets running again with just a few whacks.

The AK actually passed the convey test with flying colors. It was only when they pushed it beyond the test that problems started. With the AR I don't think having the dust cover open would be enough of a comparable test. You would have to have the bolt open to admit as much dust. Granted that's not how the rifle is designed to be transported (like not at all) so I wouldn't recommend it. It will be interesting to see how the AR does when it has dust kicked up the mag well and into the action.

@@blairbuskirk5460 That is a distinct possibility. If that happens I hope it's enough to put to bed the nonsense about the AR being a self cleaning rifle. That canard is based on the direct impingement system providing a "puff of air" (as one deluded youtube rando put it) that is meant to blow crud out after each shot. I wish I were making that up.

Back when our Company was in Lithuania, the boys fully dried up our MGs, cuz the dust there was also quite *moony*. At the beginning we the MGs were maintained as usual with good amounts lube everywhere (the more the better we always say), but the lube actually binded with dust and caused major stoppages. With the guns being fully dried, you of course did have jams, but those were usually cleared by racking the charging handle.

I live in Wyoming, we too have lots of moondust. Stuff gets everywhere. I think this one missed the boat because the gun was NOT lubed because moondust falls off everything unless there is any type of moisture or static charge. And any military weapon in use will have some lube on the bolt / carrier / piston etc. Lube would be a Moondust Magnet and , I believe, made this test much more realistic. Otherwise, cool seeing someone else having to deal with moondust as well as a great vid.

Except here it was grounded alot more by tanks, spgs, apcs etc. Thankfully, it was lighly raining lately so the dust is not that bad, but being here in the summer really sucks. The dust is getting everywhere and it takes a few showers to get rid of it.
