April 2017 Q&A - Part 1

[@johannesfunk3815]

The old west vignettes are a really cool series. :)

[@brasstard7.627]

yes they are. I think a good one would be the Fountain murders and shootout at wildy well between Pat Garrett and Oliver Lee

[@johannesfunk3815]

Brasstard 7.62 You speak my mind. :) Also, the 2 parts they did about the dragoon springs coach station is also very fascinating. From a perspective of “what a man can endure“ and the whole scenery itself.

[@MidwestMisfit]

On the topic of doing crossovers with other youtube channels. While there are some great channels out there creating some great content that I'd love to see you work with. Part of the reason I like InRange is that it's different. You guys have managed to keep yourselves out of the giant youtube gun channel circle jerk and I find that refreshing.

[@paulwhite959]

this and forgotten weapons are 1/2 of the gun channels I regularly watch these days

[@aurorawhorealis]

I have absolutely zero interest having crossovers with "blow shit up" channels

[@TheOlsonOutfit]

I'd love to hear your take on the Katrina related infringements.

[@brasstard7.627]

I always used to go on full30 when you guys put out videos earlier on it than KZbin but now that it's the same day I just wind up watching them on KZbin

[@InrangeTv]

We're viewer supported, so use whatever suits you best. ~Karl

[@CthulhuInc]

"grognard" is such a wonderful word.

[@icarusDaBoi]

@Karl Big thanks for replying to my response! It answered pretty much everything I wanted to know about your choice of an AR15 for High Power. To explain my parenthetical: since 7.62 and 5.56 are both supersonic rounds, they are moving faster than their shockwave through the air. Because 5.56 is a lighter round with less energy behind it (although I don't know about the relative aerodynamics of the rounds), it slows down to subsonic sooner than the 7.62 round and "hits" the shockwave trailing it through the air, which throws it off its trajectory and causes all sorts of interesting things. From what I read, this happened for most 5.56 loads around 600 yards, which is why I mentioned it in my comment. Still though, big thanks for answering!

[@SnarkyPosters]

I believe you are talking about transonic effects. It would be a good subject for the long range series.

[@TheSuburban15]

Reloading a pistol one-handed is usually much easier when you can put the pistol back in the holster. Whether stooping over to put the pistol between your knees, presenting a smaller target, but then requiring more time to stand back up is an advantage or disadvantage probably depends on the situation and available cover.

[@DanielSvensson666]

Great video, I love this channel and recently became a Patreon supporter because you guys rule.:D These videos are both informational and entertaining at the same time. Thank you for always bringing high quality content to us all.:D

[@heirofaniu]

As far as long range precision videos go, Tborosauraus Rex has a pretty good series called Sniper 101. I'm not sure if InRange appreciates me pimping another channel on their video, but that's a good series if you're looking for that sort of content.

[@Spitsz01]

Anyone have an MG3 handy? If it's on a Leopard that's a bonus.

[@wingracer1614]

Oh hell yes you have to do something with Othais and Mae.

[@Andvare]

A precision shooting match between the Wall Gun and the T-Gewehr. Nothing could possibly go wrong!

[@aries_9130]

Great questions and great answers, as usual. I'm excited for part 2!

[@cutworm59]

I love everything yall do for us! Thanks very much.

[@atilliar]

Awesome! Thank you for answering both of my questions, Karl!

[@RasmusSander91]

+InRangeTV Fun fact, the Danish army just moved from the MG3 to the M60 (believe its a custom version of the E4).

[@Spitsz01]

Yes, finally! Karl's shows us his!

[@BeasBotBonanza]

Karl and Ian, while I can't pledge money to you on patreon or anything like that, you both have my fullest support in everything you do. When the time comes and I do have funds to spare I will be deffo sending some your way for the two channels! Best of luck with the demonetization thing, i really hope it works out for you.

[@InrangeTv]

Thank you for the support! If you're willing to share the content when applicable, that's a *huge* help as well as we can't rely on these silly AI Bots to promote our content. :) ~Karl

[@BeasBotBonanza]

I'm in ireland so not many around me who are into cowboy action matches etc haha but I do share the vids to those I know who are interest in 'gun stuff' :)

[@52Ford]

At least you've got good whiskey, right?

[@ColburnFreml]

I'm confused: removing the magazine one handed with a grip release is easier. If you still have to put the pistol between your legs to put a new magazine in, then what's the difference.

[@viperscot1]

great Q&A keep up the great work Karl got finger crossed for you and Ian that that viewer Patreon get bigger all the best from Scotland

[@WingmanSR]

I think the niche for bullpups is mostly very short 5.56 rifles or any chambering(5.45 and 5.7 come to mind) that relies more heavily on projectile velocity over mass for its terminal effects. You get to keep the barrel length while reducing overall, but you still have the weight of that barrel. In my opinion if you want a short, rifle caliber weapon, I think you're better off shooting heavier+slower slugs out of shorter barrels, with faster burning charges.(.300blk anyone? :] ) Less barrel = less weight, and better ergonomics. I do have to admit that I think for a military, an 18" barrel bullpup 5.56 rifle makes sense. It's incredibly flexible for different engagement distances, mobile when door kicking, easy transport, etc.

[@Spitsz01]

Thx for the Primary & Secondary tip! btw you guys don't need any partners. I notice people trying to copy your way of working and they don't work. The magic between you and Ian is unsurpassed!

[@RasdenFasden]

I was wondering about the Mk-42. Is that thing still in the works? I bet a modernized and more affordable FG would have a broad appeal, especially when you look at how well that prototype worked.

[@sidewaysrofl]

If you ever get a chance review some Canadian guns?

[@JenniferinIllinois]

Dang, ripping the Broomhandle. But I totally agree with you. It's just not good at anything except looking unique and being a curiousity. I love mine though despite all it's quirks. :) -Jen

[@somedude3766]

You might not have a choice for temperature, but the ventilation noise is to loud. Fix for next video ?

[@Spitsz01]

A comparison video with the MG42 and the MG3 would be awsome if you can get your hands on an MG3!

[@Spitsz01]

To Mitchel C. Ever consider a Walther P38 or even a Walther PPK?

[@everythingphil9376]

4:44 My Hornady 75gr reloads going at 2800fps shoots like a laser from my 20" mil-spec A2 barrel!

[@gewamser]

Always the best! Both of you....

[@soylentgreen7074]

Why didn't the guy at the end of 'independence day' eject out of his plane?!?!

[@soylentgreen7074]

lptomtom Walmart

[@tisFrancesfault]

Soylent Green a number of reasons, needs to make sure it hits it's mark, the velocity may have him smacking into the space ship after he ejects , and lastly don't forget it falls out the sky, i feel he'd not be able to out run it before it came crashing down.

[@lovecchio420]

Soylent Green too drunk

[@JakeAnthony98]

Is there no lever on the 1876 Winchester? Though my screen is cracked, it looks like the lever is missing.

[@InrangeTv]

There's a lever. ~Karl

[@YCCCm7]

Shoulda guessed you'd have a box full of lever rifles.

[@tbobay]

Additional question on seeking out training: What should you look for in a school? I am about to take my CCW permit course and am looking at more advanced classes offered by the same instructors, but I know that some schools are known to teach some very questionable content. Any tips on what would make you want to / not want to attend a particular training event?

[@warhawk3719]

What is the Revolver on the right (In the middle)? It looks vaguely Webley-ish in shape, but I was wondering if anyone knows the specific model (or even if I am just completely off the mark with my Webley guess). (Edit): For that matter, is that a sawed-off revolver behind your head, Karl? If so, could we get an explanation video on it?

[@daazs9248]

Great video! If you decide to use that spot for more videos, just one suggestion: get rid of the background noise and echo.

[@InrangeTv]

That would likely be impossible so I will probably not use this location again.

[@soylentgreen7074]

Daazs Machine it's barely noticeable. People always find something to complain about.

[@the_gary]

well some peoples ears are different. For me it is quite noticeable, to the point that I find it hard to concentrate on his voice. But the contend is awesome so i take what i can get

[@kainhall]

the shock wave this is about how the bullet can de stabilize when it goes from supper to sub sonic

[@craigpalmer9196]

great Q&A !

[@criticalcontainment]

Are Afghan Martini Henry's in .303 safe to shot, using smokeless ammo?

[@sillygoose210_6]

Josh McKown .303 is a smokeless round so yeah, but be careful and maybe load a couple undercharged pills and chalk it in a vice the first few times. Work your way up to full power rounds.

[@Baker_7498]

AFGHAN aka Khyber Pass copy - no I think not!

[@criticalcontainment]

Thanks so I guess I won't be shooting it.

[@CGTjong]

What guns are you looking to test? I'd be willing to send firearms.

[@bastioncash]

This video needs more lever guns

[@InrangeTv]

Sorry. I'll try harder next time. ~Karl

[@bastioncash]

InRangeTV the lever gun what ifs started a bunch of discussions in my house

[@JohnSmith-xh9xi]

i think the weird manipulation of a bullpup come from people that have only shot rifles in the standard configuration and not trying to get used to it

[@drmaudio]

Well, if you get a plane, I'd come work as your pilot.

[@InrangeTv]

We're going to need a lot of Patreon support to fund that. :) Thank you! ~Karl

[@drmaudio]

Yes, a bit more :). Actually, more than many realize. I was once offered personal use of the jet in lieu of another benefit "if I just paid the fuel". It sounded awesome until I did the math. I would burn my budget in one 10 min trip around the traffic pattern.

[@coreydenton8296]

hey I'll be your pilot too. Disregard the fact that I don't know how to fly a plane but what better way to learn than jump head first, right?

[@yeoldegunporn]

Karl, have you not heard of HEMA? There are plenty of people who are convinced they will be better martial artists by practicing by themselves.

[@InrangeTv]

Yes, I am very familiar with HEMA. ~Karl

[@yeoldegunporn]

Oh, cool. I did not expect a response, it was mostly a joke, but I do find it interesting that in both communities the idea that practicing by oneself is a tough thing to combat. It seems a difficult concept to grasp that you can't just practice, you have to be challenged to get better and I like that you reinforce that idea in your channel. Do you study a particular manuscript or have you just heard of HEMA? Thanks for the response!

[@KurtOnoIR]

I like when Ean gets called "gun jesus".

[@steeltalon2356]

The internet comment box has this strange quirk where people have this superiority complex that their opinions are gospel, and they have no intention of sharing any reasonable expectation of why.

[@Andvare]

Just *a* god? Not even an all-powerful, supreme being? Bah, get in line.

[@Andvare]

Not even Gun Jesus?

[@steeltalon2356]

No offense to Full30 but they are way behind the curve. Buggy video playback across platforms, no app support (not entirely their fault) and it's just clunky to use. I get that KZbin/Google is currently the evil mega corp trope on independent video content, but they have the infrastructure and a huge built in audience. When you add in that most users watch more than just firearm content on KZbin--it's a one stop shop. I get what Full30 is doing and I have an account but I can't remember the last time I logged in or used full30.

[@blackbird_actual]

Anyone who wants to learn more about long range precision rifle shooting should check out the TiborasaurusRex channel and his "SNIPER 101" series. Tons of information to take in.

[@wingracer1614]

Massive time sink that channel is. I think I spent two weeks watching them all when I first discovered it.

[@blackbird_actual]

StudyinSteel​ Definitely. Any man that can hit a beer can at 1,200+ yards knows what he's doing.

[@nozzerjuice]

hi carl

[@jonc151]

In regards to the bullpup question I would offer that Bullpups are not going out of style as new companies and countries are making new bullpups and upgrading old ones. Desert Tech has built a reputation on Bullpup firearms. Radom makes the MSBS used by polish military. Australia has the 'new' Enhanced F88 used by Australian military. The French Famas is 40 years old and the AUG New Zeland is using is behind the EF88 generationally. New bullpups are still being developed. As to their infantry adoptions that is more a political and financial question.

[@usmcaa12]

The FAMAS is being phased out for the HK416

[@Makapo3791]

I haven't been getting notifications from some of my subscribed channels (InRange and Forgotten Weapons included). Anyone else with this issue?

[@InrangeTv]

Did you push that stupid little Bell thing in the Subscribe area to double subscribe? (Another fun KZbin gymnastic trick). ~Karl

[@Makapo3791]

Damn, should have specified that it was Full30 that isn't sending out the notifications. Guess that what I get for commenting too early in the morning.

[@Semigallia24]

you pronounced Eamon's name wrong...

[@InrangeTv]

I'm not surprised. Sorry. ~Karl

[@Semigallia24]

Haha, no worries, I know it happens to me all the time. I'm more surprised that you have two different fans named Eamon, it's a very uncommon name.

[@ScottCroom]

About the C96, other than that, it's a great gun. haha.

[@ZealothPL]

I'd take the gun hipster as an honor badge :P

[@nicoby309]

The French and New Zealanders dropped the AUG and the FAMAS because those rifles are, regardless of being bullpup or not, just shittier than the AR. That's it. They're a lot less 'modable' and 'customizable than the AR, which is the primary reason I think. Triggers can be fixed, so i don't think its that. Something like an AR but just in a bullpup form would be picked over the standard AR 8/10 times I think.

[@Spitsz01]

Support these guys on Patreon! 1 buck a month is all it takes (or 99 Euro cents).

[@littlegrabbiZZ9PZA]

So you and Ian are doing a collab with Othais... I feel cheated. I give all of you money (because you produce awesome content), but paying 3x for the same thing seems a little steep. Discount? :p

[@minutemanqvs]

To get views, full30 needs an ios/android app. That's it.

[@InrangeTv]

I don't think that's ever going to happen. People also want Xbox, Roku and PS4. ~Karl

[@minutemanqvs]

InRangeTV ah...didn't know it changed since www.thefirearmblog.com/blog/2016/06/15/explore-full30-real-gun-tv/ but I always wondered how Apple would accept an app specifically designed for firearms content. Greetings fron Switzerland.

[@guspeniche]

I feel like you spoke too fast because you wanted to make the video shorter. Grab a chair, grab a drink, and take your time, we are here to hear what you have to say! Cheers!

[@jman-hn8sl]

You know what might work really well for the channel with exposure is to contact hickock45 and lend him a gun to shoot. He'll give you guys a shout out and he has a MASSIVE following and I'm sure that if people just come to this channel a lot of them will love it.

[@InrangeTv]

He's aware of this channel and we've met him. It's up to him if he wants to give us a shout out or not. ~Karl

[@nicholasford4820]

I get called a gun hipster all the time. I like it. If the shoe fits....

[@52Ford]

+Mike I've tried it, but after the first couple of times the barrel smacks you in the nose, it gets kind of old...

[@jakeh6988]

I have no problem being a gun hipster. Nobody wants to see a bunch of glocks and rugers.

[@Pyrosity]

Love your Q&As, just wish you wouldn't use "OCD" as a metaphor for meticulousness. People who actually struggle with mental illnesses like OCD/ADHD don't appreciate when they're used in this way. It implies that everyone deals with these problems and belittles the affect it has on our lives. I have ADHD myself and it makes me cringe every time someone neurotypical talks about "[their] ADD acting up" every time they get mildly forgetful or distracted. Of course, if you actually do have OCD then it's yours to own and talk about. I just feel like a lot of people don't even consider the problems caused by using these mental illnesses they don't actually have as metaphors for normal life experiences. OCD/ADHD are not a picnic for those that suffer from them.
