Arsenal RPK-5 at 600 Yards With MrGunsnGear

[@biggboysouth]

Anyone else laughing a bit when you hear them say "yup all of those are on target" and you see dirt kicking up all around the target? lol

[@davidmethvin1705]

biggboysouth you will have some dirt splash on hits although when you see a big dirt plow nada hit ( target cam is off tangent from shooter and spotter)

[@catlubber9464]

Yeah, Mrgunsngear was pretty generous with his calls :-)

[@michaelinman3595]

True some were wrong calls but it’s all In good fun right? It’s not a competition. I mean we can see the results. They are not snipers. It’s just all fun.

[@catlubber9464]

michael inman - You are spot on. This was a great video of a couple of guys having a good time.

[@behindenemylines3361]

I think Eric may need to change his glasses

[@TheNatestEver]

.556 - *Round Lands 7 Feet Left Of The Gong* Eric - *Impact! Keep That Same Hold*

[@FM_Arcade]

lmaoooooooooo

[@michaelp.139]

plane45036able ROFLMFAO!!

[@dogeoper8or637]

ahahahah

[@everythingphil9376]

Was CNN reporting those impact calls?

[@jrshumate4488]

baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[@OperatorPuski]

Fake Impacts lol

[@HorsepowerDr]

Thats a negative impact , negative impact .. LOL

[@Kenny31190]

Lmao

[@deviantarsenal]

lol Too good 👍

[@tomguitar82]

Was it Eric or Helen Keller doing the spotting. Lol

[@iDeagles]

Miss Keller was a nice lady c'mon

[@tomguitar82]

I'm just saying he was way off

[@iDeagles]

sman7290 Did you know her

[@ozarkbeararms8840]

Damn, you found me out.

[@davusmaximus231]

Lots of whiffs

[@EricFabianLozano]

"Thats how you do it kids" just call em' all hits and laugh -Mr. Clean

[@adamcrater1762]

He said impact and it was a foot to the left. You for sure need a new spotting scope or spotter.

[@Salpeteroxid]

The camera is not centered, it is to the left but from what we are seeing it seams like they are to the right but that's an optical illusion.

[@billybrickwall9102]

Salpeteroxid tons were obvious misses tho doesn’t matter where u put the camera to see it at least missed the target

[@Salpeteroxid]

Game Guy Alright

[@jancz357]

that spotting was cursed, I saw the opposite of what Eric was reporting :D

[@mephInc]

bloodygentleman Camera angles can fuck it up.

[@The_Noticer.]

He hit like a foot low/right and he said it was a hit. Wasn't the camera angle.

[@rayb1330]

Mirage most likely. It can be hard to see.

[@MidasWelby]

it looked 50/50 to me, some calls were spot on, some calls were reversed. not sure whats up,

[@The_Noticer.]

+The Weapon Collection, No, but I would've probably just placed a remote camera there to spot for me.

[@Mrgunsngear]

good time as always! 600 with AK irons is a challenge for sure 😁

[@catlubber9464]

Sure is, but still great shooting. Love your channel and it's great to see you guys guesting with each other from time to time.

[@bldlightpainting]

Those two impacts one right after the other within an inch at the bottom center of that gong was outstanding!

[@spd579]

Copy that!

[@ckim6400]

I'm glad no one noticed me behind the gong with my hammer! )

[@er98ah]

Sell that to me 🤣

[@DirtyRobot]

Guys, You can set up a camera and video transmitter/receiver system for about 50 bucks that will let you spot that target steel much better. You can also record that video link if needed. Look into FPV, or drone FPV system.

[@danroberts7975]

I was thinking the same thing! The only problem being regular FPV 5.8 only really transmits standard definition potato vision. I know DJI has light bridge but its still a $600+ investment for the downlink then add the cost of the drone. It might be interesting to setup a battery powered HD nanny cam. Most are pretty affordable now a days and they could just use a laptop to view it. It would solve the potato vision issue but it would have more lag.

[@PROutdoors94]

The inaccurate spotting was hilarious, but I’ve never tried spotting that far out so I honestly can’t judge!!

[@Vspeeds]

Well Eric is officially the worst spotter.

[@airbomb34]

omfg an RPK shoot without using bipods? You people are monsters.

[@ringingsteel2432]

airbomb34 I wouldn’t want pressure on the barrel at 600, but I get it’s an RPK.

[@Liam-B]

>bipod The worst thing about semi-auto RPK's.

[@tawaitai]

Why not use the bipod to review all it’s features, kinda doesn’t make any sense.

[@Majistr]

*completely misses target* Eric: IMPACT

[@bayareanational]

You may also want to try a piece of peg board cut out to a 12” x 12” piece. Then draw a MOA grid on it with the Target shape. When there is a hit or miss, spotter can press a thumb tack into general location to then show the shooter. That’s what we used to do on the 200-500 meter silhouette range. Works really well.

[@stevenscaccia4979]

You guys should get your hands on one of the "everyman's" target camera systems (Caldwell is making one aren't they?) and see if they actually work. Ditch the spotting scope on hot days where mirage makes it near impossible to call misses in the dirt, especially with .22 cal bullets. Great video gentlemen.

[@SecretSquirrelHD]

Eric, I commend you for putting this video up. It would be really easy for you to not showcase your failures.

[@yeahsteeeve]

Oh man! Did you hear him call that guy mr. Clean? I haven't heard someone call a bald guy that since the last time he did a video with this guy. Super original Eric, Bravo.

[@redfirekla]

Best video ever...both of these guys are equally skilled, always great content on the channel.

[@tig3r_lily]

MY FAV VIDEOS ARE WITH MIKE AND AND ERIC! KEEP UP THE CONTENT GUYS! ALSO GO TO PATREON AND GET SUPPORTING! I wanted to add that as a Marine Vet myself as we all know we (used to) shoot 500yards with just irons. I know they don't do that anymore because they use the ACOG but youtube gives NO justice to how FAR 600yards/m are. Smart gun guys will appreciate it.

[@graeme3023]

Spotting by Stevie Wonder...

[@Munchie85]

Eric love the video. On a side note have you guys ever done a video about "Self Defense Insurance" and the need or lack of need for it? If not maybe you guys can address it a little in the next Gun Gripes?

[@ThenotMrNiceGuy0109]

Munchie85 That would be an informative video for sure. Good idea

[@FishFind3000]

Yea I’m thinking about getting my ccw license and when I took the class they really pushed for the insurance.

[@iDeagles]

Have all the insurance you want but if you hit somebody you're still going to jail. Not the insurance company.

[@ThenotMrNiceGuy0109]

iDeagles I don't give a crap, because we don't have CCW in Canada. Yay!

[@iDeagles]

CrazyCanuck So why would you want a video on something you can't do?

[@rontorrence7905]

If anyone cat hit at 600 yards with iron sights Eric can.

[@coreyg7575]

Chad is a better shot.

[@davidl7006]

Terrible spotter

[@32132187]

Ron Torrence н

[@cezarcorreia300]

He can survive an EMP

[@behindenemylines3361]

Quigley with his Sharps rifle can!

[@SpyvsSpy-yl9ip]

I loved the collaboration. Awesome seeing KZbinrs from a guest angle instead of host angle from time to time. Allows us to get to know your personalities better. Cheers

[@Cptrad1]

I would not want Eric as a spotter, lmao I'd have Chad cause Eric was mis callin alot (I get it's difficult but cmon lol)

[@Anacleto.Daniel]

I'm from Brazil, a socialist country. We can not have guns. Because of that, we die in bad guys hands and we are slaved by the government. Americans, never give up your guns! Don't accept any legislation on them.

[@helipilotbob6368]

It will never happen. Guns are what made America great in the first place and they will never go away.

[@Eman1900O]

Collin Robertson don’t dare be so confident

[@LibertyLou_]

Yipyo1986 Speak for yourself ma’m...

[@chhau123]

Funny there’s Not a thing that match socialism

[@Dr_K545]

Thank you for that post. I think it's good to hear stuff like that, to remind people here in the US, those right can go away fast and leave people basically defenseless and dependant on the government's "protection".

[@WitchyWagonReal]

Well gee whiz, I guess it's comforting to know that America has such a solid group of shooters... judging by the comments below, it seems most of these guys can hit quarter at 1000 yards with a BB gun while doing chinups with their off hand. So when we get invaded, it better be "One Shot, One Kill" guys, no excuses 😜 Make the team look good.

[@TheJohnChiara]

Love you guys, but that episode was the blind leading the blind... :P

[@jasonsell8523]

What kind of spotting scope are y'all using?

[@iDeagles]

Apparently not 🤣

[@yoteeel6642]

a bullshit one

[@858415]

Apparently the 60 x from Harbor Freight

[@BryanTheHunter513]

spotting scope? what's that? :p

[@StreuB1]

The one with the lense cap still on.

[@ericmoney4572]

Eric shoots pretty well for someone who slaps the trigger around like it's the skinny kid on the beach...

[@antelbow5270]

eric money you slap the skinny kid on the beach around ? That’s bullying

[@ericmoney4572]

Oh jeez here we go...

[@The_Noticer.]

The spotting is a bit spotty there, Eric.

[@aSuspiciousPete]

We're hitting levels of heresy that shouldn't even be possible

[@v.i.shooter4598]

Great to see Mike back at the range with you. A good mix with the two of you. A shout out to Chad, missed your shooting in this one. And yes, I am very aware you guys are 600 yards away. Break given! ;) Great video guys.

[@augustrosenthal6402]

Still no Chad:(

[@donalddickins8493]

Good I'm sick of Chad

[@alfazio047]

I was thinking the same thing?

[@jacksonofalltrades2665]

Incels hate him !

[@Elzimbabwe.]

Chad is awesome wtf?

[@augustrosenthal6402]

El Zimbabwe I know, what's with all the hate. Everyone on the channel seems like good people.

[@davidmg4216]

Brings back memories of the 80’s and Red dawn

[@1337Tactikal]

I LOVE IT WHEN MY FAVORITE KZbinRS GET TOGETHER!

[@deviantarsenal]

Absolutely love these 600yd videos! Keep em coming and definitely keep the AK love up!

[@isaacbell5646]

Im rolling listening to the shot calls!! Great Vid guys, please keep it up

You should get one of those target cams that send video back to you so you can view it on an ipad or whatever. So you also can me 20yards away from the target :D

[@Tarsarian]

Open sights with a open front loop is realllllllllllllly hard! Good Job Guys!

[@52chevy3100]

I have a hard time hearing impacts with 556 at 300yds. I couldn't imagine at 600. I assume one would have to mainly rely on sight

[@davidjakubowski1975]

What a gosh darn pleasure! I can feel the concentration from here.

[@fightingducks2669]

Eric did just fine seeing a 1/4 inch hole at 600 yards, for iron sights shooting you qualified Mr. Clean.

[@reesewawarosky1058]

I think y'all need a camera setup close to the target so you can see where the shots are doing.

[@RobbDizzle037]

You guys forgot to mention you were spotting with mk1 eyeball that day 😀 Thanks for the video, it's always a good day when my favorite 2 channels get together!

[@no1maximus]

Check out Magneto Speed Target Hit Indicator. You place it on the back of the gong with fiberoptic rubber sticking out and get a flashing light signal when hit. Different colour when near miss.

[@Patriot-Logic]

Eric I think it’s time for “THE BEST OF BARRY”!! He was awesome and had a great point of view!!

[@JackOSUrulz]

5.56 at that distance with iron sights is just nuts. The gun and you guys did pretty well for that distance and caliber. Ready to see some 30.06 from a Garand at 600.

[@themawsjawz_9491]

An RPK is definitely my grail gun. Especially if I get a machine gun license, that would be so badass.

[@tomjones1967]

Cool video & beautiful rifle! Original owner 7.62x39; never shot (still have rest target). I’m glad I went wood furniture!

[@1DavidMarshall]

I would be interested in what your hold overs were at that distance.

[@raudelcontreras2102]

Great Shooting Guys.. Nothing Beats a little Friendly Competition.. Makes it all Fun..

[@otterconnor942]

556 is bad at 600 yards, you can tell from the dozen false positives and the dozen false negatives eric, an experienced spotter, was calling. I can barely hear 556 at 200 on steel at a range, meanwhile 7.62x39 I can hear clearly out to 300 easily at a busy range

[@COMB0RICO]

Interesting insight! Thanks from Texas.

[@Xtorin_Housecat_Ohern]

.... good luck getting your x39 to 600 yards reliably either.....

[@vegapower454]

Ha, got em!!!

[@rodhagen9393]

I have noticed when Eric is shooting he has a very deliberate trigger reset but tends to slap the trigger instead of squeezing the trigger.

[@PistolManiac100]

Good vid with 2 good youtubers, heard Arsenal will be having good deals this year.

[@wolfwind9658]

Finished my rpk and I have yet to bed it on a gun vice to really test accuracy but initial tests even with crap ammo is promising

[@858415]

For all the gear you have Eric you really need to get a good spotting scope. I just have a cheap-o 75 x and I can see hits out to a 1000 yards no problem

[@anthonypaul2385]

Can you do a review vid on the Sig p365 looking for some good input on it.

[@TheFacelessMan82]

Mike hit alot more than were called. I don't blame Eric though. 600 yards to see impact from a puny .223 round not easy. Love these collaboration vid's.

[@TheFacelessMan82]

I am just messing around. I love .223. It's a great round but it's not ideal at 600 yards. Looking at ballistics charts .223 loses a vast majority of energy by 600 yards.

[@danieldz7906]

wow so many lies about hiting a target :)

[@edspad2]

What is the MOA on that RPK, I pulled off the 1-4x24 on a norinco nhm91 and went to red dot and stopped chasing DMR idea.

[@Fritzget]

Does the spotter also have iron sights ? 😂

[@MattiasTheMerc]

Mike and Eric are great shooters. Keep up the videos guys!

[@mrmom22]

@Iraqvetern8888 @Mrgunandgear. You guys make everything look easy 600 yards with iron sight. 😳 holy crap.

[@JRkota318]

Can you move the target camera to the same orientation that you guys shoot from in the future videos? Every video the spotting is completely off from what the target camera shows.

[@matthewdingman2177]

Ok. So onger that the down range camera is off set from the targets. But I have never seen a 5.56 kick up that much dirt when it impacts a target. And the down range camera can pick up the ring. And every time I hear one of them say impact and the steel didn't ring, wow. These guys have always done a great job. But today might be the day they get a new spotting scope.

[@oncrx]

What spotting scope do yall use?

[@brandonboelter5953]

liked the video. the mirage must have been crazy that day, could only imagine.

[@MikeCostelloOutdoors]

Eric great video thanks Mike for bringing out you rifle it's badass just a tip to read windage tie some bright color windage flags off the poles that the gong is hanging from

[@brandonrupp5880]

I think we can that it's the shooter not the gun. Lol. Eric is killing it.

[@LoderryPlaysPVP]

The channel's 10 year anniversary is coming up! :D

[@kuttinkuddy3905]

why not heavier pills probe off of the bipod prone?? what's the twist rate

[@HOLT4415]

I think this calls for a potential review of Target Cams. The Caldwell one is suppose to be pretty solid out to like 1000yd.

[@gregmahone1815]

Man I'd love to be a special guest on their channel and be able to shoot a AR 15 caliber 6.8 spc at 500 yards with a scope an 30 round mag just to see if I can stay accurate at 500 yards with 30 rounds of 6.8 spc you guys do a awesome job I enjoy your work keep doing what you doing Eric and Chad

[@hir3ddriv3r48]

No ranges out by you good for 500 yards?

[@chasevogt2090]

Where ya live?

[@poorfatman5317]

I can hear it ringing on this end

[@poorfatman5317]

Eric you did awesome

[@poorfatman5317]

they are in packs wish you could hear it ring like I can

[@seansawyer580]

I would like to see if you could use the bipod, but I know its more stable on the rest. Always great to see all the weapons you fire on this channel. In the UK we have very strict gun laws, so it good to see all the different types.

[@jason.orbita]

Any thoughts on the Florida shooting?

[@jcuse122]

definitely a cool ak variant, does it come with the side optic rail mount

[@dbmail545]

jcuse122 This one did

[@ThatCarGuy]

dudes calling misses hits and hits "could see it" as you hear it clear as day lol. Must have been some good maryjane.

[@ThenotMrNiceGuy0109]

Hi Mr. Clean 😂

[@IronAddictsAnonymous]

Great video as always but you either need a new spotting scope or use a mic somehow to hear the impacts cause both of you guys were waaaaaay off. Where’s Chad when you need him... lol

[@DirkDiggler6903]

Mike's the Man!

[@XraygogsTV]

Not even using the bipod OMEGALUL

[@Liam-B]

RPK bipods are horrendous for accuracy. It's just there to quickly deploy for suppressive fire, not for stable or accurate fire.

[@Royal_Vengeance]

Weirdly enough it looks very confortable to shoot ? Recoil looks smooth from the way the bolt seems to take it's damn time to make the full motion. Great video .

[@ChristianGrest]

No excuses!!! lol yea I'm sure your mirage was rough...those calls were all over the place. Awesome video though! That's one cool rifle!

[@Highstranger951]

Nice shooting Mike

[@keenanwalker6597]

What’s the twist rate on that barrel? 1:7?

[@saltychristian2528]

Love your videos bro. One of these days would be cool to see you stretch that PTR F out to 6 like with your recent videos.

[@slickguns2074]

Nice shooting!

[@TheMrarthas]

Get a SAM7FS out there!!!

[@TheFacelessMan82]

At 600 yards?!? U crazy! lol

[@dakkadakka9189]

I think the brownells xm177e2 would be interesting at 600

[@kl3847]

I think if it's in 5.45x39 it would have no problem.

[@RyanEsstac]

You guys need a thinner target from MOA Targets for more sound for impacts!

[@Virginia91]

Is it missing because it's 556 or an ak style weapon?

[@richardtibbetts5020]

Good shooting guys!

[@nickessepian8906]

Damn Eric what gong are you looking at?

[@shawnmckeegan]

It's probably too late, but I wish you would do a video about the guns that they use in the Olympics. I don't quite understand if their air rifles or what?

[@alexmoore1506]

Shawn McKeegan I think a lot of those competition guns are .22LR

[@grimmwits]

Can you guys make a video on the Heckler and Koch G11?

[@darthstewie76]

I guess you could say the spotting was... spotty

[@OneInTheRiver]

*Yup ya hit it*

[@williamstidham9526]

Hay spotter , how many fingers am I holding up

[@caseyclymore4417]

I’d like to have a better camera angle. A cheapo camera behind a dirt pile maybe 20 yards directly in front/ perpendicular with the target

[@MrDugbo171]

I can hear my Valmet m78 calling my name from the safe now. Time for a range day!

[@timknapper6990]

Does arsenal still make rpks
