Garand Thumb tries the VSS Vintorez if it is the quietest sniper rifle Russia has to offer... "The VSS 'Vintorez' is such an odd rifle that was in many ways massively ahead of it's time. The 9x39 is closest to the 8.6 blackout in terms of bullet weight (though it still lighter than those loadings typically). In today's video we take one of the few examples in the United States and go over this very fascinating design."
Garand Thumb talks about the M16A2 rifle and upgrades made to it which he says don't make sense... "There is no other weapon that I am more obsessed with than the M16A2 with attached M203. It is in every way the best looking rifle that I have ever seen. The M16A2 however as a whole had many odd upgrades over the M16A1 that made didn't make sense.

And although it’s still early it is a real treat to be able to get some hands on time with this prototype MMG."

Garand Thumb tries the KS-23, a Russian-made 4 gauge shotgun which he says to be insane... "The KS-23 is well known to video game players but may be more of a mystery to the general firearm community. It's a insane concept born from a blem anti aircraft barrel. In today's video we review one of the few examples in the United States using hand loaded 4 gauge shells."
If you are not a real steel shooter and not familiar how bullet impacts sound like since you're more used to BB impacts or war movies, Garand Thumb got this video to compare if they're like in the movies...

We used 22LR, 9mm, .223, 12 gauge slugs and .308. I hope you guys enjoy the free content and learn something!"
