Garand Thumb finds the 6MM ARC to be insane as he gets to fire the round in this episode... "The 6MM ARC is a wild newer round that is being developed primarily at the request of the Military. But like all things we get the benefits of having this round on the market. The 6MM ARC is compelling because it can fit in a small frame AR while having extended ranges up to 1200 yards."
A real steel session in ballistics as Garand Thumb checks the lethality of the 300 Blackout round... "How Deadly and Effective is 300 blackout though? We've heard about its effectiveness but rarely have we seen comprehensive testing. In today's video we test the 300 blackout directly with comparisons to 5.56 in the ultimate evaluation. Is it worth it?"
The M16A4 is known for its 3-burst feature and Garand Thumb brings it to the field and share what he thinks about it... "We want to give tons of love to International Milspec Co for the help in putting this together. The M16A4 with burst fire is such an interesting design. In many ways forward thinking and in so many more it's a bad design. Despite this it has served with the US Armed Forces for a long time. In today's video we delve deep into the M16A4."
The Glock 18 is a staple in airsoft but will it meet Garand Thumb's approval? Watch him with this machine pistol... "The Glock 18 Machine Pistol is perhaps one of the most well known firearms out there due to it's inclusion in MW2 and the Battlfield Franchise. It's an incredible weapon that unfortunately is hard to obtain and thus there isn't a whole lot of information on it. In today's video we take a shooters perspective while taking a hard look at the Glock 18."
A Soviet firearm that saw heavy action in World War II gets tested by Garand Thumb... "The PPSH 41 is a legendary firearm due to it's large involvement in WW2 with the Soviets. The weapon is simple and robust at the same time. And due to the extreme numbers made this weapon continues to see service in combat zones around the world. In today's video we delve into the Russian Bullet Hose; the PPSH 41."
How good is the Chinese PLA gear is? In this video, Garand Thumb tests the current issued helmet to PLA troops... "The Chinese Military is rapidly modernizing their currently issued gear. This includes their helmets. In today's video we see how strong they are. Utilizing common weapons throughout the world and NATO we see how these modern Chinese Army helmets hold up in real scenarios."
The FN FS2000, called a Tactical Tuna since it resembles the shape of a fish, gets a hands on look from Garand Thumb... "Belgian FN FS2000 is in so many ways an incredible unorthodox design even for a bullpup rifle. In today's video we test all aspects of this fish gun and provide context for the shooter."
Garand Thumb brings to the range a familiar sniper rifle to airsoft players as they have been playing with the airsoft version for years, the HK PSG-1... "The PSG-1 is a grail gun. Rare, Incredibly Accurate and with an insane amount of beauty. Perhaps one of the most iconic rifles to have ever been made it was one I was apprehensive about reviewing. Typically iconic weapons do poorly, and today I was surprised when that was not the Case."
Is the SIG Spear Assaulter K the new MK18 for the U.S. Army? Garand Thumb takes it out to the field and shares what he thinks... "The US Army's new MK18 could be the Compact SIG SPEAR known as the SIG SPEAR ASSAULTER or SHORTY SPEAR. This 9 inch variant retains much of the power of the Spear but in a much more compact size. This variant could easily be seen within US Special Operations in the near future as the design is smoothed out and perfected.
Garand Thumb explains why he loves the Springfield M1A rifle... "The Springfield M1A lives rent free in my heart. I love and don't love this rifle for a variety of reasons but ultimately you are getting a M-14 for around 1500 bucks and with some upgrades you have a pretty wonderful battle rifle. In today's video we delve in the M1A scout and take a hard look at this rifle through a series of tests, drills and practical applications. I hope you'll enjoy the journey as much as we did."
