He cannot stop touching that thing. Lol. True love ❤️
I'll pay $6-7 for the jam-o-matic button, but not for better materials and corrosion resistance!
.gov at it's, well, normal.
I know right? Stoner gave them exactly what they wanted in the very beginning and the suits messed it up
I would take the corrosion protection measures any day of the week!
Just goes to show you that it’s just the same today with the secretary of Homeland security not even being able to describe what an assault weapon is before a congressional panel !!
Idiots in suits!
$4-5 for the forward assist “Wheeler”button, but it makes Mrgunsandgear happy!
There you go, even Eugene Stoner doesn’t believe the forward assist is necessary.
I have needed that fwd assist on my A1 more than a few times in cold West German Forests!
@@joetexas1546
Poor maintenance 🤣🤣
@@rueridge7597 Nope- extremely bad operating conditions. Lol. !
FA was put on the AR for the absolute worst reasons.....forcing a dirty cartridge into the chamber.
@@joetexas1546 I've never needed it here in the mountains of East Tennessee but all my ar's have it. For my next build I'm gonna use a Aero Precision M4E1 upper without a forward assist, a KP-15 polymer lower, and a Faxon 14.5" pencil barrel with a built-in flash hider. I haven't decided on the other parts yet but I want a sub 5 pound rifle that's still as reliable as possible.
civil market show that all ideas of mr Stoner was right. This weapon is a masterpiece and still in use and improve over time
The finest rifle design of all time!!! His design is still the same design after 80+years with really no design changes that are drastic to his original design. Amazing design!!!
Lol!! You drunk??
@@rueridge7597 Just did the math again and I was originally wrong with the 80+ years...LOL, Thanks for correcting me on my math error!!
60 years+
These videos were fascinating and frustrating at the same time as DOD acquisitions today, even in non-weapons systems, seem to suffer from the same problems. Thanks for putting them up.
These are amazing Mike. I have been on a tear with these and other of his videos. Jim Sullivan’s too. . I wish I had the skills to help you in developing a Mrgunsngear version. with an open bolt auto feature and a closed bolt semi with a resetting trigger…I think that if you could combine the Colt LMG bullet hose you showed us, with a solid semi auto trigger….that would be everything the boys need! I think your the guy to do it brother. If I get any ideas I’ll be sending them your way!
So sad to see what's happened to Colt!!! Once was an amazing Company that has been poorly ran into the ground!!! What a shame...
I believe once full auto guns were made into NFA items, it killed Colt!!
NFA is not what killed Colt. They put all their eggs into their military contracts basket. Aside from there snake revolvers and 1911's they really didn't make much else
Well colt has been going bankrupt since it’s inception lol but you both make valid points
Colt is a miracle of a company. No other company that I'm aware of has successfully snatched defeat from the very jaws of victory as many times as Colt.
To think this was recorded in ‘88 and he was being complimented on his rifle being American’s premier battle rifle of the 20th century. I hope he can see that it is still running strong today.
Oooooh Mrgunsansgear, you got what I neeeeeed!
Love this stuff. Great to hear how the original creator felt about the so called improvements on the A2. A rifle I carried and shot well with. Can't say I experienced the zeroing issue. Anyone else have the issue of throwing off your zero?
No issues, and i dont fondle my irons when fidgety.
We need more of these. They are Gold
I was looking for part two all day. 🤔
Go here czcams.com/channels/ekUfGgW9tELI9VZ7iZ3O_A.html and you can see all the parts. He's just reposting what someone else uploaded in August.
Thanks for sharing this with us,
So much good information. Thank you
Thanks for sharing. Very interesting.
Thank you for posting this… I can only imagine the time you spent finding this, and the video yesterday. (I’m pretty sure the Leviathan Group had a hand in it lol!)
He didn't spend any time finding it. Bakelite N Waffles uploaded the whole Stoner series like 2 months ago. Don't believe me? Go check out czcams.com/channels/ekUfGgW9tELI9VZ7iZ3O_A.htmlplaylists
You can watch the rest of the series without waiting for Mike to repost them on his channel. He's also got stuff with Kalashnikov and Stoner together.
@@Deltaworks23 Exactly. MrGunsngear is poaching views instead of doing what would be the ethical thing and recommend his viewers go and watch them. Pretty low honestly.
Thanks. Stoner's videos have been popping up lately
Love these stoner interviews. Thanks for posting them
Excellent vid share buddy!
Very excellent series Mike. Thank you👍👍
Did he steal the content from Bakelite N Waffles channel? That's where I saw the series originally. Seems like it to me.
@@Watchdog_McCoy_5.7x28 I’m not sure I would use the word steal. I saw a shorter version on Inrange TV. I imagine there is a source that everyone used.
Love how .085 inches is the separation between “large” (M14), and “small” (M16) caliber
Or 2.06 millimeters for the rest of the world
Said another way, the 308 is 38% larger in diameter, 90% bigger in cross sectional area, and 163% larger in volume/mass.
That said, the .223 is sufficient for the vast majority of purposes.
@@roflchopter11 lol! You’re on to something… I just might start my own YT channel after retirement and hit you up for number-crunching… my experience and degree is in Electronic Engineering, not so much with ballistics and Physical
Here for the anecdote about the soldier that had it made in the shade with lemonade. 😎
I've used my forward assist 2 times.
It seems like America would've been better off just adopting the AR10 from the beginning
Nope as Eugene Stoner said the lightweight AR10 suffered from the same controllability problems firing the 7.62 NATO that the M14 did. The M14 was heavier! The AR10 needed a huge muzzle brake to help tame the recoil on full auto. That's when Stoner realized the AR needed the development of the intermediate cartridge that the rest of NATO wanted instead of the 7.62mm. All the post war NATO European countries were developing the EM2, FAL, CETME for lighter cartridges before the US forced the 7.62x51mm on them.
👍
Where is this report he's referring to with what he felt was criminal actions? I would like to read that as well.
It's probably classified because it was the 3rd attempt of the army trying to sabotage his rifle.
And it all started with a hobby that kinda got outta hand this man should be on a 1500$ bill
Unless it’s a “PSA” or “Anderson”… then maybe a $2 bill… lmao!
@@ETC_Rohaly_USCGlol yeah but I gotta say I have a few poverty piney builds never failed yet with 2k round though them either way this man should be in Americans history books him being the father of America's Rifle
@@Allen338LM LOL! I have a couple Anderson lowers myself, (only 3 S/N’s apart) and haven’t had issues. Also stocked up on a bunch of uppers and BCGs from PSA.
@@Allen338LM and I agree, JMB and ES need their own dies made at the mint
Is it Chris Bartocci of Small Arms Solution interviewing? Voice of this interviewer is just like Chris Bartocci’s voice.
No, Chris Bartocci doesn’t appear in the credits fo the first half of the video.
It was Edward Ezell, of the Smithsonian arms collection.
@@tomhalla426thank you!
@@farhan.naushad I had just watched Part 1
I know that this stuff is in the public domain, and that this is the B channel, but when you are reposting exact copies of video's that another channel already released, it rubs the wrong way a little bit.
No credit, no acknowledging the original, nothing.
@@Watchdog_McCoy_5.7x28
The title gave credit to Eugene Stoner
Bakelite N Waffles channel has the entire series of videos. Why not tell the viewers to go visit that channel instead of poaching viewers, or at the very least acknowledge them and send some viewers their way?
Bakelite N Waffles doesn’t own this footage.
@@JohnBrowningsGhost that's irrelevant. He posted it first, and now everyone all of a sudden starts posting the same exact videos. Where did they acquire the content? Im sure it's pure coincidence that 2 or 3 channels have released the same content right after Bakelite did... gtfoh...
@@Watchdog_McCoy_5.7x28
It’s public footage.
Sounds like you’re mad, but there’s nothing you can do about it.
Sucks huh? :(
@@JohnBrowningsGhost I expect more out of the supposed 2a, Patriot community, and when you use someone else's content, you should give credit to them. Sorry that you have no morals or ethics, but you'll fit right in with the hypocritical scumbags pretending to be Patriots. Move along now.
@@Watchdog_McCoy_5.7x28 Seriously not even poking just seriously asking. How can it be somebody else's content if it's public domain.
We see news sources of all types showing the same things all the time. Like I said not trying to start anything here just asking.
You're dealing with Government, huge ego's, the ones at top don't take advice...
If you want the best advice talk to the people that use it....
Stoner gave the military exactly what they wanted in this firearm design from the very beginning and the suits, the powers that be, messed it up by adding things that stoner disagreed with.
I would much rather have the corrosion protection, then a chamber rammer any day.
It is people like stoner that provided the security and victories of this country.
Today, the United States has a secretary of Homeland security that cannot even define what an assault rifle is to a congressional panel. There is a video about that here on CZcams, where Senator Kennedy is crossing examining The secretary of Homeland security, and telling him he has no faith in his ability to run homeland security. I just read a report yesterday that over 1.7 million illegal immigrants made it into the United States in the last 2 1/2 years. That is an estimated number. There were 3.2 million people beating on our countries door in fiscal year 2023, wanting in from all these cockamamie countries. it sucks. I hate it! wait till they have a kid or two and that number multiplies to 6 million people in this country that do not belong here.
I'm sure you have heard this multiple times... I just realized I was unsubscribbed from this channel. I didn't do it so they did. B.S.
