While not the best analogy for hardcore conservatives, it is almost like teaching abstinence only, rather than teaching the respect/understanding/safety. The more far Left choose to not become educated on firearms with bans being the focus, while I'm in middle America where firearms aren't demonized and we grow up with them and their respective principles of education on them. I'm a firm believer if these folks got some real world hands on firearms education and handling, they'd become overwhelmingly pro-2nd Amendment. They teach sex education in school, so perhaps we shoehorn firearms education in there akin to Hunter Safety courses like I took around that age, instead of being raised with media telling us that firearms are tools of evil.

Don't have an STD, they're bad for you and people in general.

I'm 13 so It didnt even affect me so now I have an ar15 and a berretta 92

I want one of those AR-15's that fire on full semi automatic.

@@Player_Review I support this further because some schools have marksmen teams and the US has a big gun culture.

yep and they are still doing it today with the 2019 AWB. they just need to be blunt and write a bill that bans all semi auto rifles. i dont agree with it, but logically speaking its the only way to actually ban "assault weapons". even in California you can still own an AR15, but it just looks stupid. the law does absolutely nothing to stop a criminal from converting his goofy cali compliant AR15 into a normal AR15.

Because it was unconstitutional my dear foreign friend. Unconstitutional laws cannot be effectively enforced, especially without wipespread public support. This is in essence why the law could not have been, whole assed..

There were already a ton of examples of weapon laws being bypassed, allegedly that's how the Messer (or Kriegsmesser) became popular, famous... a thing. Law said you couldn't carry a sword around, law defined what the standard for sword was and what made a sword. People made a different sword, went around the set standards - worked fine...

In the same way, California keeps driving innovation. You can now have a standard mag release on a 'featureless' gun, yep, no more bullet button.

Besides bans of firearms not working in reducing crime, they can easily be sidestepped by the law abiding without breaking the law :)

Corinthian Yep, I can confirm that they were a fringe low volume sales rifle back then. I also remember all the hell and dammnation when the Maddi AK was first imported.

@@winkleried What was as or more popular then? Aside from the obvious handguns/shotguns etc that are still popular today. Was there something that filled a similar niche or market before ARs?

@@theangrycheeto CMP Garands, probably.

Maybe that was the whole point. Get as many modern rifles in the hands of the people.

@@theangrycheeto The Mini 14 was probably the main one.

Same here. I never had any interest in AR's or AK's, I preferred old school milsurp rifles. Once the ban came, I had to see what the big deal with semi-auto's was.

did you get into full autos? back in 94 i bet that an M16 lower was still somewhat affordable. MAC's were probably under $1000. im a young guy so ever since ive been an adult an M16 lower cost like $25,000. it sucks...

Once you have the chance to handle one for some plinking fun, there isn't any going back. It is just too engaging of a sport to not enjoy. My other firearms give nowhere near the joy I have out camping in nature with ranged targets and a can of ammo, except maybe the increasingly rare hunting season I go on, where I admittedly prefer my bolt action Model 70.

Same, I was a black powder collector... now...

I think Russell's dead pan switch is glued in place

SgtKOnyx 9mm is an option too.

**Eyes flashes**

JAFFA KREE!

It makes sense, think they went with P90s for volume of fire, but 5.56 is what 5.7 emulates, and clearly M16s were plenty good at plugging snakeheads and penetrating jaffa armor and... And I'm a dork. It's what I am.

You're welcome ;D

did you buy any transferables before the price went way up? i imagine shortly after the 86 ban they were still affordable, but now an M16 cost like $25,000. im 18 so i was born into an age where full autos are only for the rich =(

Sometimes I dream that I'm in pre-'68 and have the foresight to see the gun control stuff taking more steps. Especially with the '93 Brady Act, it seemed like 'guns' started being associated with 'killing', which shouldn't be how Americans at large perceive firearms (in my opinion). I know the NFA in '34 was the biggie, but it wasn't too long ago that gun control was more relaxed and it seemed the more they placed restrictions, the more it demonized them. At least when they laid down a bunch of regulation in '68, they had the machine gun amnesty for folks with autos not on the record books, but we have a lot of work to do restoring some consumer control with post '86 autos and foreign-made rifles; Then, hopefully the Hearing Protection Act, since suppressors falling under the NFA is just silly. I'm not asking for zero restrictions, but I am asking for a scaling back of some of the government overreach.

Same here my neighbor had a class 3 uzi he traded for a thompson right before the ban.

And every generation believes they already have "too much" freedom without studying history to find out how much has already been lost.

You still shot that match better than I would have with fully modern gear, haha. Love your content, Sinistral. Keep up the good work out there

Thanks for explaining. I was actually very confused about the match content and had thought that I started watching a different video. All in all, the video was great, but a little explanation leading into the match content would have helped to make the transition feel more natural.

I was a little confused at first, but I'm glad it got cleared up. Just some constructive criticism. Mayeb in a follow up video, put two similar runs side by side. One with the ban era rifle (maybe even use 10 rounders) and your modern set up. That way we can see a very clear and contrasting difference between the two setups. The same way Karl side by sided a run between you and your AR and him with his K98.

Michael Hatfield still like that in Massachusetts

Michael Hatfield it’s still that way in Massachusetts

About a year before the ban expired, I sold a preban 33rd glock mag for $120. I also sold a preban Beta C-Mag around the same timeframe for $400. I was rather confident that the ban was going to expire, ...but not so confident as to sell all of my mags.

I sold a pre-ban 30 online during the ban for $65. But it was a Colt and niw ARVN with Vietnamese printing on the wrapper.

I remember $30 being a good price for a 30 round AR mag. Now I wait until I find brand new mags for less then $10 before I buy.

shatara42 freedom is under assault on many fronts.

I swear some other countries tried or are still governing with 'an iron fist'. I'm so grateful to live in the USA, in one of the free States, where gun control is very relaxed and crime rates are very low.

Eeeh, they're trying to ban Lootboxes in games, which are a demonstrable detriment to developing minds. Also, you can't afford an AR, if you've compulsively gambled away your money on Lootboxes.

@@whitescar2 The market should still boycott games with lootboxes in them. The gaming community seems to forget just how much money EA lost from backlash surrounding Battlefront 2. But then again, game companies seem to not care how thirsty legislators are to capture the industry through vague stipulations of what a lootbox is, as with how blatant it can be in E & T-rated titles (not even sticking with M games, a rating most game retailers wont sell you unless you show ID, something that mommy buying Timmy GTA5 seems to forget). If game companies gave the pretense that they weren't marketing to children to run a chance at having Timmy use mommy's credit card to spend $1000 on duplicate skins (read: whales), the market would likely solve itself over time and there'd be less justification of scrutiny by regulators. But of course, reality is often disappointing.

@@Spitfire200 "The market" is just as much of a religious deity as any other. As long as you BELIEVE and do absolutely nothing else, everything will magically fix itself. It has nothing to do with "Timmy," it has to do with "literal fucking gambling for shit that doesn't even have monetary value." This is a perfect demonstration that the market does not regulate itself and never will. The only thing that has had an impact is, in fact, the government getting involved. EA didn't "lose" money from Battlefront 2. They just didn't make as much as they hoped from it. And they still have no reason to give a shit, because their real money comes from FIFA. Always has. That's where it all started. What is it going to take for you people to realize that YOU have absolutely no power here? THEY have the money. THEY have the power. They will use that power to make more money. They will use that money to gain more power. The only thing they fear is something with more power than them. Like, you know, a military and a court. Any other problem can be quietly fixed with enough money. They've gotten to the point where they will literally send PIs *_to your house_* to intimidate you into doing what they want. They are two steps away from the fucking mafia. EA has been voted the "worst company in America" multiple years in a row, and they're still on top of the world. You think they give a shit about your mythical "market?" Please. They OWN the fucking market.

Slap wooden furniture on there or run pink/colors of the rainbow semi-auto platforms and you're good to go. It'd be good times to see someone run one with a 'Bernie 2020' or similar bumper stickers, or better yet, custom DNC paint job.

Here in Australia they were talking about banning bolt action hunting rifles if they looked to military just because the government said they look dangerous.. things are crazy over there with your completely illegal AWB but here we don't have a bill of rights or constitutional rights so things are much worse and when the government took our guns they followed up with removing all rights and freedoms.. im jealous of America big time since you still have most rights and freedoms.. fight all gun restrictions as much as possible or America with end up like Australia

Which of the features was cosmetic? If they are purely cosmetic - what's the problem?

I was juuust old enough to remember Regan's Ban on automatics and open bolts and the distinguishing features between the ban's always had me wondering Why the heck did a temporary ban on bayonets and pistol grips inspire more response, more push back and more politics then an actual full ban?! And for the life of me to this day, the only answer I can come up with is showman-ship. Regan was just more attached to Americana in appearance despite being more extreme then Clinton. And ever since I have been *very very* wary of any advise that follows party lines, I read proposals carefully, and ignore the NRA.

Went out in December 2012 shooting clay pigeons with my brother-in-law and he let me try his stock AR-15; It was so much fun plinking with that at age 35 I finally got around to building my own (and by building, I mean pairing a completed 18" upper with a completed lower, hehe). Man, they're a great platform and for a guy like me in Utah, just loads of fun as I live out in nature. I actually changed my magpul MOE furniture for a FAB Defense AGR-43 pistol grip after handling my FFL's precision setup and a Daniel Defense stock. I am running the poor man's whatever scope with a Primary Arms 1-6x ACCS, though I'd _love_ to get an ACOG on there someday.

The A2 is not 'retro'. They were still issued new, into the 2910s. We invaded Iraq with the A2. The only reason we have the flat top, is because everyone went to the M4, because they were riding everywhere in cans and so needed an improved sighting system, to compensate for the M4 short sight radius. This brought on the increased use of low magnification optics and thus eventually the flat top. So... I guess you can thank roadside bombs, in Iraq, for the current iteration of the AR.

I built an m16 a1 with original Vietnam stock and triangular handguard.

Middle Outdoorsman thank you for your service sir!

nettles89 that’s somewhat similar to my 2A awakening. I was always fascinated by guns. I knew violent crime was bad and criminals use guns. Also I come from a black family of very smart, educated people. The overwhelming majority of my family doesn’t believe in guns. Especially Because they don’t want me to be a “gang banger”

Funny tho that Canada doesn't have the second amendment and we don't live in fear constantly... Wondering why and what caused us to not be scared!... Oh maybe because not everyone can walk around with a gun in concealed carry or anything.... You don't have a gun problem, you have a cultural problem. There's many countries with gun ownership laws that don't have as many gun crimes, and FAR LESS school shootings, difference is their culture and respect of others.

Yeah, you sound like a variation of me. I've changed over the years in a similar way to you.

I can't believe you trusted your teachers after 3rd grade.

Like the one the idiot killed people with in Christchurch using illegal (in NZ) 30 round magazines

You can get full autos in NZ idiot

Im in Australia same here all our rights and freedoms were removed and we are turning into north Korea but people are still getting murdered.. isn't it amazing that people found more than 1 way to kill people but don't tell the government they will ban more things.. dang to late

dont act like you didnt see the christchurch videos

I’m sad for you bro 😢

inthego watching swat now makes me realize what awful antigun propaganda that show was

Kaboomf and as it did here it had no effect on crime. I mean the worst mass shooting in WORLD history happened in Norway back in 2011 by that neo Nazi lunatic as I’m sure you’re aware...but of course that was with a harmless mini 14 hunting rifle 🙄

That is unfortunate, especially since Norwegians have a proud history of firearms marksmanship. That douche in 2011 probably screwed your firearms legislation up for generations, because 'emotional' laws are often hastily researched with quick implementation or reinforcement, draconic in nature and cater not to the population the governments represent, but to the lowest common denominator to the detriment of proper law abiding citizens.

Yay, I have a 1957 Remington 22 'Sportmaster', so basically a 'gallery gun'. My father bought it back then for his elderly grandfather that left it outside during the entire winter, so my father cleaned it and reblued it, then he left it outside during the winter again, so my father repeated the process, then his grandfather left it out again and ultimately it was passed down to me (I'm 40 now, my father is 77), so I took care of the oxidation and refinished the stock. Funny stuff we'll do for a sentimental item, given that even today it is only worth perhaps $200. And, yes, as responsible and respectable Citizens, it is a burden we carry to keep the governing body in check; All laws must align within the constitutional framework within the context of the forefather's intent upon foundation, especially the Bill of Rights, as it cites inalienable rights that the government shall not infringe upon and instead has a responsibility to protect the observation of said rights. Thanks for keeping history alive, instead of burying it or revisioning it as we see all too often practiced in modern discourse.

I had the same Dissy set up with the ARMS gooseneck mount and a knockoff Aimpoint. Had a lot of the same issues as shown in the video, weak extraction, mine had an un staked Gas carrier key that came loose and tied up the rifle. Sill have the lower as part of an A4 rifle. Had almost no interest in AR’s before the ban due to my experience with Olympic Arms and never liking the A1 in service other than its weight. Now have built a couple myself that work way better than that original Bushy.

Sap sucker here, I've got both Russian and Chinese surplus (not commercial) sks's. The chinese ones aren't anything to loose sleep over.

Alas, the foreign-firearms ban of 1986, which hopefully will be recognized eventually as government overreach against consumer choice; One can hope, and ideally post '86 autos could be a thing under NFA if they revisited the matter. The unrelated Hearing Protection Act to exempt suppressors from the NFA was revived this past January, so I'll pretend that all the anti-gun chatter is still counter-balanced. Though the 'assault weapon' ban was the silliest anti-gun legislation, which research from the Left, Right and Center demonstrated had no noticeable effect on violent crimes involving firearms, so it would be demonstrably clueless for that ban to be reinstated. I know the SKS's and AK surpluses weren't ban related per-se, but if I could go back, I'd be buying barrels of those $97 Mosin-Nagants that were everywhere when I was in my early 20's, though just to resell at today's premiums. My local C-A-L Ranch always 'literally' had barrels of those, always at $97, though they limited to 3 or 5 at point of sale - so, I guess it'd be multiple visits. ;)

$49 sks is what I miss, sold cases of them! For over a year.

I too was 14 years old But I remember it clearly My mom had to get a permit to buy a handgun had do the background check at the shop then go to the sheriff's department and get a permit approved before she could take it home then she could only have 10 round mags this in 2003 in winter.

its good and bad, yeah we have access to tons of semi auto rifles, but id prefer pre 86 laws so we could get a full auto AR15 by just paying the $200 tax. it will never happen though. no politician wants to be the guy that made full autos easy to get.

How does anyone expect bans to reduce crime? Alcohol, drugs, guns etc. Same story every time. People want them and they will get them. Ban just makes black market more profitable and violent. Only way to actually reduce violent crime is through education and addressing social issues which makes people choose violent crime life style. With education I mean actual education to allow a non-criminal profession and safe gun handling with respect for its power. But both methods are very hard to actually do in practice and effects only come after many years. worldpopulationreview.com/countries/crime-rate-by-country/ shows a statistics for country by country crime rates. I would question some numbers if countries have heavily under reported numbers you can still see some European countries being very low which probably have quite trustworthy numbers. Those include countries like Switzerland, Finland and Iceland. Then if you check gun ownership rates at worldpopulationreview.com/countries/gun-ownership-by-country/ . You can find them also near top for ownership rates. There is clear indicator that civilian gun ownership has nothing to do with crime rate. There could be some heavily controversial changes into gun and weapon handling laws which could reduce violent crime rate in long term. But I have a feeling they would be heavily unpopular here so no point raising them. They wouldn't also help anything for people who are likely visiting here as they are likely to already understand how to respect guns and handle them safely. It would be more making sure random Joe without proper interest to understand the weapon would be more likely to handle it safely.

Nothing encourages gun sales more than Democratic talk of 'gun grabbing', which I'm not sure that most Dems are aware of. Recent example being the 'Trump Slump' of diminished gun sales when the Republican took office, but I imagine gun sales are strong again now with the Democratic debates where they all seem to be more anti-gun than I remember, with none of them supporting anything less than at least implementing UBC's. I wish California would stop speaking to the rest of America as though we were all Californians living in California's unique 'situations'. If it happens in CA, it goes after all of America, because LA (along with NYC) run the media bubble including Hollywood; They also happen to send forward half the presidential candidates this time around (okay, tbh, I didn't count), point is, what works or doesn't work for CA is likely not applicable to what works or doesn't work for middle America... I'd love it if they recognized 'average Americans' exist and started catering to them when they engage in the national arena (including national 'news', ideally).

Eh, if you look at how many people in the US as a percentage of the total population have guns, you will come to realize that "gun owners want guns", not everyone. The percentage of gun owners overall has decreased, while the number of guns per owner has increased. Meaning that those that own guns, own more than one or two. It's these people who end up with extensive personal armories (and thus present a larger danger of second-hand sales to criminals, or losing track of a weapon, or having them stolen), rather than "people" in general rushing to the stores to stock up. img.washingtonpost.com/wp-apps/imrs.php?src=img.washingtonpost.com/blogs/wonkblog/files/2016/06/gun_ownership.png&w=1484 gunculture2point0.files.wordpress.com/2017/01/gss-gun-ownership-trend.jpg So yeah, not quite true what you're saying. I mean, you yourself are a textbook example. You bought 3 rifles in a weekend! That's enough to arm 3 households, but instead they just join your previous weapons.

@@whitescar2 It's both. Yes I bought more guns, but I was also working at gun stores at the time and after Sandy Hook we had customers literally wall-to-wall in the AR shop. I helped a lot of people who had a casual interest in firearms buy their first guns. I don't put much stock in survey results, especially ones like your second link, where they surveyed 0.0007% of the population and extrapolated that out to the entire country.

@@Player_Review CA policies don't work in CA either, but it's a model for everyone else. Also I haven't seen as many runs on ammo or guns since ~2014. I think the market finally saturated. (And everyone maxed out their credit cards.)

Didn’t the government order an insane amount of ammo and caused the shortage?

It is rather sad that State governments are allowed to infringe upon the 2nd Amendment and the Bill of Rights in general. Furtherso, that we've had several federal laws enacted and in place that also violate the forefather's intent with the 2nd Amendment. With further research, the limited wording of the Bill of Rights is given proper context, that the people have inalienable rights that government shall not infringe upon, but rather be a safeguard against violation regarding these rights. That the original intent was for the people's right to bear arms sufficient to combat the threat of a tyrannical government, not to castrate the people's ability to act as a check against the hypothetical tyranny. Quite simply, the people were intended to have the inalienable right to bear arms _at least_ equal to the government that serves them, and we're not asking for 'outrageous' things like fully operational armed civilian aircraft, at this point they've got us quibbling for things like the Hearing Protection Act, foreign-made rifle importation for consumer choice and post '86 automatics [re-]added to the NFA. The people have conceded so much, yet there is a severe lacking of proper discussion in higher education regarding how we got from A to B, and that B is not where the people's responsibilities best balance the body of the government. I still freaking love this country though and am so grateful to live here and enjoy the freedoms, which while threatened, are still greater representations of freedom than any other country currently enjoys. Our laws just need to realign with the contextual intent of its constitutional framework.

@@Player_Review While I shouldn't comment as I am not American, I largely agree with what you say, certainly the ethos at the heart of it. Although I would say the regualted part of the 2nd is also important, either by having enough training standards for licensing methods (for insurance coverage and proof of safe able usage & to be able to have certain types/classes of weapon etc) and some manner of providing education of usage, insights and the possible problems, accidents and at worst, the partial loss of some right(s), felonies and/or jail time & fines for breaking the due duty of citizineship in operating within the 2nd's bounds. I feel the 2nd is a right, but also in that it is a right, that itself Must Bear Upon the Citizen Themself/Themselves Too, to have done due duty, dilligence and action by the/each citizen in conducting themself, specifically more so when using a weapon as a tool for target practice, fun, hunting and especially when teaching others etc. to break the right of other citizens, in the proper usage of the right, such as in a violent nefarious context, should break that right from those whom abuse that right. I do understand most horrendoues acts are usually by those who haven't come to a higher level of attention to legal or federal persons, and that those criminals that do use weapons, usually don't follow laws they don't agree with or can get away from being scruitised about. And as such it can feel that some parts of laws, bills and ammendments etc, can appear to infringe on the legally abbiding citizen; which then hides other facets of culture, upringing, family and educational problems, societial problems and a myriad of other things that can be the causes of persons acting irresponsibly or criminally with defensive tools getting used offencively. And if better communal, regional, state or federal care and services (mental health, local community events, anti-gang & afterhours educational services et al), aren't proscribed to try and mitigate, fix or ease those problems, then those who dislike weapons rather than the problems around them, will focus on the weapon as the root of the problem/evil IMHO to bury their own heads in the sands so to speak. I hope I haven't offended you or others, and the reader can get the idea of what I hope to mean, even with my rambling on.

Richard Noggin Indeed......

I'm in Utah and was 15 in 1994, when I was given a hand-me-down Model 70 in .308 for hunting, got several firearms during the AWB and somehow went oblivious that a ban even existed. I didn't build my first AR until 2014, but I've owned and operated firearms since the early 90's (as a hunter/Boy Scout back then, primarily). That is fantastic that you've continued engaging in firearms enthusiasm within California. I hear chatter about leaving to other 'Free States' to enjoy their lesser restrictions/regulations, though the need is greater in CA for a continued persistent educated pro-firearms population, if not to influence law, then at least to assist in educating others around them about the truths and myths and bringing new people into the sports/collector/hobbyist/educator/dealer/pro-gun/enthusiast world. Keep up the good work!

The one thing that I think the Democrats will ultimately win on (someday) is the UBC, which won't affect me since I go through an FFL for my stuff, but it would price out many private sales with the increased cost. The rest of their anti-gun agenda just amounts to rhetoric they think their constituents want to hear, which isn't true outside of their coastal States. Both my parents were raised on farms and relied on hunting for a sizable part of their diets, so I was raised with that mindset, though also as a collector and general firearms enthusiasm. For whatever purpose, primarily the inalienable right to bear firearms, these rights should not be infringed upon and it is the US Government's responsibility to continue recognizing and fight for its citizen's protections as outlined in the Bill of Rights.

Karl _almost_ always manages to avoid the political quagmire and I appreciate the direction his content takes as I feel it better educates global viewers on firearms and it generally does not come across as brazenly biased. Furthermore, while he's pro-2nd Amendment (constitutional right to bear arms), his perspectives on many matters deviate from any political party lines and contribute to his being an intriguing nuanced content creator. Either political party hardliner over here would disagree with some of his approaches to certain material, yet in doing so, we find a common ground and recognize he can engage the larger audience.

its sad what was done to gun owners over there. i watched an old documentary about when the UK banned pistols and most semi auto rifles, and apparently there were massive protests, but of course the government didnt give a damn. tons of gun shops went out of business and the gun culture was basically ruined. that is the goal they are trying to achieve here. they want to make a licensing and training requirement and also require us to have expensive gun insurance. the process will require approval from local police and the AG, it will cost a ton of money and be a huge hassle. that will be the death of the 2A. it will make it so hard to become a gun owner that the younger generations wont want to deal with the expense and hassle. if you're interested here is a video explaining the new gun license bill that has been proposed. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/ouCVhrqfx7azc4U.html its terrible...
