Thanks for watching guys! Another promise made and another promise kept. This was obviously a very hard one to pull off, so please be sure to share this one with your friends! If you want to check out LAS Concealment, here’s the link: lasconcealment.com?sca_ref=546627.lPTxp6fPPk

Should you ever need to visit Chernobyl, don't forget to take with you this gun. It will keep you safe from every threat, from mutated dogs to mercenaries to insane, yet surprisingly well-equipped fanatics.

So this is the video where we finally find out Brandon does indeed have Russian connections because not only is there a VSS but also enough 9x39 for a range session

*Perfect home defense gun because it doesn't wake the neighbors you can just bury the problem under the tomato plants*

In 2012-13 I watched a Russian dude merc 2 clans in Dayz, a total of 28 guys got fucked by this one Russian with a VSS in 2 hours, the chat was screaming for admin and cheater and hacker... As the ingame admin spectating on the call with server owner, who saw no hacks being used... That Russian dude is still one of my video game heroes, the way he smashed everybody with this VSS was insane to spectate!!! After it was all done I teleported to him and gave him a gold bar for reward, maybe the best 2 hours in a video I spent spectating somebody.

"I'm not sure if we can go much more exotic than this" The AN-94 is poking its head up right now.

The fact that he now has a real VSS, SVD and Type 1 AK-47 just makes my heart warm

I've got to say, for some reason this is probably my favorite intro yet. So simplistic and yet like such a classic scene. Well done guys

excellent tarkov larp. high ricochet chance when hit at an obtuse angle...

Future video: How Many Airsoft VSS Vintorezs Can A Real VSS Vintorez Shoot Through 🤔

Brandon: "I'm not sure we can go much more exotic than this." Me: "I present to you the SkaSH 12.7mm bullpup suppressed assault rifle chambered in 12.7x55mm"

Appreciate all the hard work you guys put in to bring us a look at such a hard to get gun.

Love how the steel targets sounds more than the gun itself, now THAT is a quiet weapon!

Now that he has a Vintorez, we can only assume that its only a matter of time before we see a AN-94.

For those wondering how a VSS kit came into the US, these are actually Russian civilian blank only rifles made by "Molot Arms" in Russia and are unregulated in Russia, so it was simple enough for a civilian to buy one for about 80k Rubles (or about $1k USD) and then cut it up and send it to the US. Some have made it state side this way but they are NOT real military VSS rifles. In fact, "Molot Arms" isn't even the real Molot, The real molot is Molot-Oruzhiye ltd and they even had a lawsuit over the name although I don't think anything came of it. The Civilian blank VSS rifles aren't designed to be used with live ammo, they have cast soft parts and bolts, the lugs on the bottom are shaved and welded together, and the guns are designed completely different from the military versions. The military versions have a quick detach suppressor shroud, these civilian versions have a screw on. The military versions have a linear hammer, these civilian versions have a striker. Military versions of course had select fire modes and these are semi only. The way the bolt carrier and bolt are designed are also different and come apart differently. Molot Arms in Russia have a very bad reputation. They've mostly made blank fire guns and some civilian semi guns, as well as 366 TKM conversions from live fire rifles to Russian legal "shotguns", but they have the same reputation of bad quality as I.O. has in the US for their US made AKs. Tula, another Russian arms manufacture (and yes the real Tula) does make a civilian version that has all the military features except for the suppressor and select fire mode but they only make legal live fire versions in Russia which have to be registered, so none have been exported out of Russia as they haven't made unregulated blank versions.

Ты не сказал одну важную деталь по поводу разработки патрона. Он разрабатывался не только как дозвуковой патрон, но и как патрон без рикошета. Что касается родства с АК, то это оружие производит конкурент из города Ковров и его родственник это АЕК971. PS желаю тебе АЕК971 в коллекцию!))

I loved it. Maybe not too quiet, but certainly more quiet than the aircraft overhead! Impressive!

Oh how far little Brandon has come over the years, from a self drawn VSS on a chalkboard, to the real shit. Now get an AN-94 next.

“So… here’s my VSS.” This is honestly one of the coolest weapons you’ve shown, and not only due to it’s rarity. Integrally suppressed guns are cool, but the semi-unique round makes it for me. Side note, “sneaky breeki penetration” does sound terrible.

Bro, when you drop it, you actually kill the part of my soul, you actually legitimately made me cry.

i think its crazy how the steel ding is louder than the firing of the gun

Other than the "clang" of the target, it SOUNDS like an Airsoft gun. Suppressed sub 9x39 is a thing of magic.

The AS VAL is actually the gun that got me _into_ guns and Brandon's old vid on "how it REALLY works" introduced me to his work and humor. This is a moment in time, one to remember.

Wow! That’s wild! Damn near movie level quiet. I’m no gun expert, but that’s one of the coolest things I’ve ever seen.

that is one cool gun, nice work on the suppressor.

I've seen a few videos of VSS rifles, and this one is, by far, the quietest. Excellent work!!! You should contact Ian McCollum at Forgotten Weapons because he'd probably love to see it.

Now that Brandon has a VSS all he needs now is a Stechkin to complete the "Shady as Shit KGB operator" rig, complete with Western contraband blue jeans and aviators to really show how much privilege the party offers him.

Only time I have ever seen one . Never saw or heard anyone get a kit before. Impressive great job. Thanks for doing it

Brandon, Ваш ВСС собран из деталей винтовки которая предназначена для выпуска на гражданский рынок, и глушитель там носит чисто эстетический характер, так что не удивляйся что внутри ты обнаружил 2 шайбы, этот глушитель просто для вида

“I’m not sure if we can go much more exotic than this” New challenger approaching: MP7

I am shocked by how quiet it is. That actually seems like silencers from movies.

Dayum! The vss! I'm so stoked, this video is great so far. First time hearing one fire, fantastic video

This is one of my fave guns in DayZ along with the SVD and Suppressed Mosin.

Brandon: "No, its not "VSS at home"." Also Brandon: "Here is an actual VSS, and now it's in my home." So..... it IS VSS at home...

Very cool

It would be interesting to see it used against ballistic gelatine torso to see how it performs against targets that are not using body armour as this was intended to be used like this .

Literal top 3 favorite gun right here. Love the VSS!!!!! Thanks brandon, you rock!!!

To acquire a VSS in the US I'm pretty sure is as hard as me trying to live longer than 1 minute in Labs in Tarkov.

The vss is easily my favorite firearm of all time

That is a truly awesome build. Congratulations on a successful upgrade on the original.

About the small amount of baffles inside a sup: the angles of them are perfectly calculated to lower the power of a sound, especially if used with proper 9x39 subsonic, and though it is a bit louder than lots of other supressors, it is actually enough for vss, as long as it is used in the distances of 50+ meters (never seen one in a close combat, its a marksman weapon) and can never be heard if shot that far:) But because of that the vss supressor is definitely one of the most durable in the world.

Hey Brandon. I'm glad to see you finally got your hands on one of these. You have made the entire gun community of America jealous.

Brandon solving the Russia - USA relationships in a simple yet powerful gesture. Slav Squat in Cowboy Boots. Gotta love it

Finding this gun in S.T.A.L.K.E.R. is difficult but it tears through people

I love the look of the gun. So stylish & minimalist.

"I am not sure we can go much more exotic than this" *Looking at the AN-94*

Demo Ranch: teases MP7, shows up with AR in 4.6 Brandon: teases VSS, shows up with VSS Just saying

Brandon: rarest gun on the channel!!! Garand thumb two years later: ha ha an94 go burt.

Such a great build! And great vid on it!

I like these videos because they don't attempt to force "meme" humor and politics, they demonstrate your genuine enthusiasm for the piece of hardware in question and how it works. It's cool to see the inside of a VSS.

Gunfighter Ballads: VSS "Where's the shot coming from" "Stealth isn't optional" "Spetznaz's long arm" "Yeah I play metro" "From mother Russia with love" "Yeah, I'll come out quietly" "Never heard of the MP5" "It's like they're deaf" "Be very quiet, I'm hunting GI's"

I remember liking this gun cause of Kurz Weber from Full Metal Panic and when it was used in BF3 campaign (although that was the AS Val variant)

the stamping process actually makes the metal much stronger. what youre shooting is essentially a compound curve, which is extremely resistant to deformation. yes, you can absolutely shoot through a thin steel plate of the same thickness as that helmet, but not when its been formed. dont know the exact process, but its essentially being work hardened. its the same process behind w-girders on mountain roads.

This is the civilian version of the rifle. On the combat version, the fire mode switch is located behind the trigger, and the lever is only a fuse. Sorry for mistakes-googl translator)))

As always a great video. A real treat to see the VSS in action. When we are talking suppressed, I would love to see the Vietnam era Swedish K (Swedish m/45) in its suppressed version. This is also an integral suppressor, the whole barrel "shroud" is replaced with a longer one. I don't know if the barrel is perforated.

As a smoll Asian man standing at the threatening height of 5' 7, I'd really like to see Brandon try and use the Chinese Type 95/97. All my British friends complain it's too small for them, but I think it'll fit Brandon just right.

i am impressed!!! It is defenetly not a civilian version (wich is without suppressor inside and without autofire) but it is not a military version also (different handguard texture and no autifire) BUT!!! It shoots like a real one!!!! i heard that sound hundred times and it is the sound of shooting of a real one VSS Vintorez! Where did you get it????? How???

You were shooting Budweiser a year before everyone got pissed at them, kinda prophetic.

Best part of the video is Brandon trying to make the sounds of the bullets

Wonder if Brandon could get his hands on an ASh-12.7 for a future video, but considering its a Russian assault rifle chambered in Russian 50 cal it most likely won't happen

I feel your pain when you shot without ear protection. In my time in the german Army we were training with blankets all day. But then we switched to live rounds. The IFV next to me started shooting with it's 30 mm. Gosh that hurts

The thread cutter "винторез" looks like an awesome little piece

I love the complimentary mosin in the back

This man is the only KZfaqr that keeps his promises even if they take a while love you ak guy

The real VSS, despite only having 3 baffles, is just a loud click. It's not as much the number of baffles that matter as it is the room for gas expansion, and the large housing of the original allowed for a lot of gas expansion. Normal rifle suppressors have limited diameter and shorter length, so they need to implement a more brute force solution with a larger number of smaller baffles in order to slow the compressed gas exiting the muzzle until it has lost most of its potential energy. This also results in a larger amount of gas coming back out the receiver. The VSS's suppressor would be very low back pressure in addition to being quiet.

I fired Wolf rounds through my .40 Baby Eagle, and two mags jammed it up pretty bad. I locked the slide partly open with a misfeed. Was affraid to try and unjam it, with a live round part way between mag/barrel, and spent shell partly ejected. Had to clean it thoroughly, before I could use it again, and haven't bought Wolf since.

The original suppressor might be outdated but it was designed to be optimal so that it not only decreases the sound but also doesn't take much power out of the bullet, but also you have to use more propellant which also generates more noise and heat; he other issue is temperature, the original weapon was set up to run on full auto, and the more pieces of metal you put inside, the longer it will take to cool down and the more cavities there will be to collect debris and cause problems.

Brandon: "It's not an AK, it's different" Me: "It's a tiny and quiet striker-fired AK"

I'm so glad to finally see a legit VSS and a little surprised you got your hands on one before Ian, now we just need an AEK 971 and we good lol

im pretty sure the makers didnt wanna hear it shoot

Officially my favorite gun channels. Shit like “sneaky breeky gun test” just set this channel apart 😂 Or the “regularly scheduled ADD break” 😂😂😂

You should manufacture these and contract another company you trust to manufacture the suppressors to go along with them. It would be cool to see them in pistol clamberings as well as a variety of intermediate rifle chamberings.

This arguably rivals the AK .50, this gun is just so cool and unique. The trigger reset is louder, so beautiful

I did not realize how beautiful that actually is. And I'm glad everyone got to shoot it!

Aaahhh, yes so glad you got your hands on one of these and did a video on it. Had no idea these even existed until I played Far Cry 6 and was like "how the s**t have I not seen this before."

The VSS is one of the coolest guns you have had on the channel. I didn't even know I was a fan of it until now. Big fan of that integrally suppressed system you guys built.

This is the pinnacle of Brandon's content. Knowledge, memes, history, comedy, and gun porn.

I love how the ping of the target is louder than then the shot

Love the Slav bass coming from the truck 🔥🔥🔥

If you want to bring some thing more exotik - Get a KORD 12,7 mm machinegun!!!!:)))) everybody loves 50 cal:))))

in a summer camp i was a year ago we had some military guys that showed us some guns one day. we put our hands on SVD S, VSS, VAL and PKM. didn’t shoot it, only cocked it and pulled the trigger without cartridges. and my god VSS was REALLY light and comfortable to use, and trigger worked just perfectly. living in Russia is fun sometimes)

This is so cool, I remember it from the video game America's Army back in the day.

I'm going to need one of these to go along with the De Lisle Carbine I'm currently looking for...

I love that this video helps prove that the SSh-40 is an unreasonably durable helmet for being just a shitty steel pot.

Brandon: Wants to hit helmet Also Brandon: Head eyes Skill is hard to overcome.

The purpose of the AS and VSS was because small calibre guns in 5.45mm are not very good at subsonics. At best you get about an 80 grain bullet in 5.45mm which is like two .22lr subsonic bullets. The 9x39mm came into existence because if you want quiet then you have speed limited to below mach 1 so you make your rounds more effective by making them heavier because you can't make them faster. They also have a 12.7x55mm round that also includes supersonic and subsonic rounds.

New year resolution: a collaboration with you and Robski of akou 47-74. 🔥💪👍

If you want a neat challenge for getting more exotic I'd like to suggest a variant of the Groza, though I doubt we'll see one on the channel till post-WW3 I think it would be a great addition

VSS is my favorite gun. Incredible to see a recent high quality video

13:15 at that angle even a 50BMG would bounce off

this song is so good not the outro but the one that plays during the vid when your breaking them guns down

Brandon always keeps his word and never disappoints

You're missing the polyurethane "shock-absorber" in front of the recoil spring assembly plate. Regarding the noise report, the original one has been measured to be quieter than a subsonic AR-15, which is actually quite a bit, but clearly improvable. One of the reasons for the simpler baffle design is cleaning, integrally suppressed guns are usually dirty AF.

"it didn't penetrate" you just caved in their skull

1:55 adding new meaning to a Crew Served Weapon.

From what I've heard, back then when the rifle was in development, the goal was set to create a suppressor that makes a sound that doesn't sound like a shot instead of making it quiet as possible. So you can very much hear the sound but, in an urban environment, you're much likely to think that something broke because, well... pretty much everything around is in shambles.

There's a reason the stalinium helmet is meta for budget runs :D in game its got a really good deflection chance

"Thaah ironn siightz aarr kindaah zirroh'd... Kindaah." I'm British, and I grew up in the 70s, where camp comedy was all over TV (just look up Dick Emery if you want an example). And that was more camp than a bunch of tents! Nicely done sir.

Bro is so badass with that gun it’s like every time he shoots it’s like damn I want a gun

the real vss has a completely different sound. this is achieved by accurately selecting the angle of the three inclined washers and the distance between them. there are three washers for a reason, it was an exact adjustment of the jamming of this cartridge and this barrel.
