    I bought my first Midwest rifle after watching James talk about them. I have 3 now, 2 in 223 i in 308. Someone at the range I frequent said they are trash and went on to tell me how every ninja special elite commando super killer uses his Daniel Defense model rifle and it's rated for 2 million rounds blah blah. He's not the type even worth arguing with. I've had zero issues in all the years with any of my rifles but every time I see that guy having a problem with his I ask if he needs to use mine because it runs instead of being broke lol.

    I have two very young sons, I’m considering just buying two of these to keep in the safe for them until they’re old enough to have them on their own. I always appreciated how James took care of the next generation and made sure there was always ample supply for the young ones.

    The Midwest pistol James spec’d is awesome. I’ve had it in multiple classes, thousands of rounds, and the only thing thats ever stopped is the CMC trigger I put in it, which James would have probably given me shit about - if you know you know;) Anyhow, can’t recommend these rifles enough.

  • @bs7497

    Instead of using James in a thumbnail for a video, you should embody his spirit. Embody his personality. Embody his teaching style. Embody his philosophy. Be a good person, but by God, get loud! Be proud! Be aggressive! Be hard! Be opinionated! Be controversial! Be a badass! Get in people's faces! Don't back down! Don't be timid! Don't be soft! Don't be weak! Get in there and mix it up! Don't be afraid to talk shit, and tell us your opinion! Be a leader! I once heard James say that people didn't like it when he used curse words. His response was "If you can't handle a fucking curse word, you can't handle what the fuck is coming!" He was 100% correct. I also remember him calling out "fair weather pussies!". You got some big shoes to fill, if you're the guy who's taking over for him, but you ain't gonna fill them shoes by speaking softly and being meek.

    18in for 300yards?...Yeah that didn't age well. A 14.5 is more than capable of reaching well past 300 for lethality. Or better yet just stick to the standard 16.

    • @MILSPECMONKEY
      @MILSPECMONKEY Před měsícem +5

      I'll guess his main idea was keeping up the FPS at 300 yards, not just if the bullet will make it there at all.

    • @philliplopez1501
      @philliplopez1501 Před měsícem +7

      Sounds like you have a 14.5 inch. Have you used 18 or 20 inch versions?
      There is a world of difference between "hitting targets" and "lethality".
      Those extra inches of barrel mean higher velocity, less drop, less windage, softer recoil, faster follow-up shots, and better terminal ballistics.
      So yes. It has aged well.

    • @PDevoLi
      @PDevoLi Před měsícem +1

      @@philliplopez1501 Yup, own and our have shot basically all 5.56 barrel lengths. While a 20 inch barrel may offer some increase in ballistics the overall disadvantages of the rifles OAL out ways the advantages. A 300 yard target is nothing for modern 5.56 ammo out of a standard 16 inch rifle. Now if he said 500+ I would agree. At those extended ranges every inch matters. Also I would argue that 90% of owners won't even shoot past 150 let alone 300. Once again didn't age well.

      @@PDevoLiaged just fine. This isn’t a dated comment made invalid by new data that we have that he didn’t have. Everything you know about ballistics and lethality he knew just as well or better. He had a different standard for what he considered desirable lethality, that’s all. 14.5 is great and is my choice, but 18 is better for what he wanted it for.

    • @Brileyrl
      @Brileyrl Před měsícem +2

      It aged just fine in my opinion. I think the point is that the 5.56 was intended and designed with a longer barrel in mind because the rounds' effectiveness has a lot to do with how fast it's going on impact. And the longer the barrel equals greater effectiveness at longer ranges. The short barrels will most certainly reach out there but the bullet won't be going as fast at longer ranges and might not do the job as well.
