excellent point about the idea of having a suppressor in an urban setting, in the 'new normal'. Ive been tossing back and forth which to buy next, NV or a suppressor.

[@Apocolovids]

If I could get a Flux Raider in 10mm, I'd be sold. I use my vehicle in the mountains for long drives, and occasionally take hikes when I'm deep in. Basically, my practical usage for a sub-caliber PDW is based around wildlife, rather than people. When I'm in my vehicle I can easily manage something short and of high-enough caliber to handle a bear. But on a hike that's way more than I want to carry, and to conceal it would mean a draw time that could only be described as pointless and foolhardy. But I'd also like something bigger than 9mm if I'm that deep in the woods, so a common PDW ain't gonna cut it. Open carrying something rifle-caliber would also be a risk. I love doing stuff at night, and the last thing I want is a Game Warden coming across me and thinking I'm poaching. 10mm would be enough for me to feel comfortable carrying it for bear, and in a Flux-type package would also be easily concealable.

Like I had to sand the chassis so it wouldn't rough up and make my hands raw (where the beavertail would be). The glock will wiggle in the chassis, which means the side mounted red dot mount (optional extra) probably doesn't hold the best zero. When you tense up on the brace (not with my shoulder, don't shoot my dog ATF) the whole thing flexes. I know you can make plastic stronger than that. To clean it, you have to take it apart with a screw. One day I will lose the screw, or fuck up the threads, or strip it. You will also probably mess up your zero.

[@BrassFacts]

not much in my testing

[@JB-pb9xv]

The suppressor can definitely come in handy, for both the reasons he gives. As well as, I don't mind going a little bit deaf for a minute. But in shit situation, that loss of hearing can really screw you over. Plus who doesn't want to be able to attack silently, like a ninja or assassin.

[@BasementOps]

My favorite videos to justify all the money spend on a possible scenario that I might face...that is 99.99% not happening.

[@BrassFacts]

I mean by that logic, would we not all just have handguns? Which, fair enough. But I feel like the last couple of years have shown the need for preparing for temporary loss of civil services is not at all out of the realm of reason since it literally happened

[@aphaileeja]

Best video title EVER!!

[@freedomtowander]

1:42 love the custom mic stand!😂 I have hung mine from the ceiling fan a time or 2 lol

[@REF49]

Adapt, overcome, nice jury rig!

[@nicks9541]

Just from the title and thumbnail I can already feel the upcoming pressure to leave the rifle and carry a PDW. Not that I don’t want one, I’m just a poor.

[@lancekilkenny721]

You kidnapped Garand Thumb's side kick!

[@JimYeats]

Enjoyable video. My truck pack for the last few years now has been the Mountainsmith Tour lumbar pack. Perfect size for some well thought out essentials as well as a 22lr pistol and suppressor. I think for your slightly larger packs a Ruger Charger, folding brace/stock, a red dot, light, suppressor, and 25 round mags would be hard to beat as a budget carbine for when civil unrest occurs and effective and quiet are the order of the day.

I travel a lot in a company Toyota Tacoma. Quickly found out my 8” ar 9 or 8” 300 blk took up a lot of space. Now, I just carry a bunch of Glock mags and my 19 w/ a x300 and 507c. Also bring a obsidian 45, but will eventually get a cgs mod9sk to keep things small. I would love to get the magpul/zev folding gun. That would be a perfect gun for someone like me who travels. My go to bag for work and carrying has been a mystery ranch 32l back back. I don’t have the gear squared away like you do, but it does keep spare clothes and stuff. The med kit I do have stays in the truck, incase of a job site emergency.

[@kurtbaier6122]

Here is another option way more convenient and less expensive. I carry a G19 concealed with raised tritium sights which has an orange dot on the front sight for daytime use, and two spare 15 rd mags in my pocket. I also carry in a day pack a weapons light and the original version of the 14 inch USA One Shot non NFA pistol brace which is both very light, compact, and sturdy, and two candy bars ( 31 rd mags). I haven’t needed a laser but a combo light laser might just make it a perfect system. I don’t need or want a can, or for a can to hang me up in tight spaces. My current in the pants draw is very quick and I am not willing to sacrifice that. Nor do I want a heavy day pack. I agree with your concept. When it’s time for a AR 15 we won’t need to hide it. A pistol carbine is more realistic. My setup is for every day carry. If you want to plus up your defense a Dynema plate ( Vism) 3A plate or strike face 3A plus are lighter in weight than steel and can fit in a small day pack ( 10X12) or messenger bag. Stay safe

Came for the facts , stayed for the beast

[@JustSumGuy01]

My bag, that I take to work everyday, aside from having my party flavors, I also have food, first aid, change of clothes, things to wash myself with. It's not that light. My car even has change of boots and another jacket and a bunch of other stuff. Of course, the heavy stuff will be left behind if my car is down, but I'm mostly prepared to get the hell out of where I currently am.

[@jlynch55]

Ole brass facts reminds me of a situation where Trevor from GTA V and Ryan Reynolds had a baby. Love the videos

[@DarthCody700]

Random question, do you know how much the bolt/carrier on the tp9 weighs? Also, what do you think of the USW-G, or even the USW-G20 in 10 or 45?

[@BrassFacts]

i dig em. 10mm would be cool. 45? eh, I'd rather just use 9mm.

[@DarthCody700]

@@BrassFacts I don't have much experience with it, but is 45 really worthless? I heard it was pretty good to suppress, but beyond that? I suppose if you follow the fbi guidelines, 9mm, 40, 45, and 10 all basically have the same effect on body targets, so why not 9 I guess.

[@BrassFacts]

@@DarthCody700 no it's good. There's upsides. Like being subsonic by default. But I already have 147 9mm so there benefits are lost to m be there, thus, it's a noticeably increase in cost and loss of ccw ammo compatibility

[@benjaminsperos742]

Mac 11 for a pdw like the mpa using Glock mags, braced, light, Lazer and optic Thoughts?

[@BrassFacts]

could work. Haven't really messed with MACs tho

[@benjaminsperos742]

@@BrassFacts thanks for the reply and I was looking at the tp9 but it seems flimsy as well as expensive. Chassis pistols don't have enough rail space and also seems flimsy. And seeing how bunch of covert people use them back in like the 70s and 80s it seems like it might be a good option especially since it has all that capability for mounting tactical whizz-bangs

[@pipersmitty87]

i agree 100 I carry an MCK - its so steady and target acquisition is amazing

[@davidp.6871]

I'll be curious to see your thoughts on the new Magpul folding PCC, seems like it could fit the bill well

[@tommybomber]

I work in armed protection, so I always have my plate carrier, rifle, spare mags, water, pistol, flashlight with spare battery pack I can charge devices with, gloves, snacks, hoodie and jacket that are big enough I can put over plate carrier and no one would ever know I was wearing body armor.

[@CC-qr6nk]

What are the ponchos you are wearing?

[@mjolnirdynamics8789]

I'm personally holding out for the Disney or Netflix remake of band of brothers.

[@BrassFacts]

oh god please no.

[@dom.rockchalkjayhawk.8990]

I live in the Midwest. So most things aren’t likely to go down here. But in a civil unrest scenario. An ar platform is literally the perfect thing. And a full length one at that

[@wildcat8598]

I like the idea of having something with multiple points of contact, can be deployed fairly quickly and if it takes interchangeable mags with your edc than just bonus points right? I used to have a 9mm pcc for my bag gun but wanted a rifle round and now switch from a Galil Ace Gen 2 x39 8.3” and an AR in 300blk but both take fairly good sized backpacks to carry. Would be nice having something like a B&T or Flux. Something that small that you can have a decent sized bags instead you f a 40L backpack lol

[@ruthlessreviews1283]

I’m working on setting up my travel bag, but I’m taking a little bit different of an approach. I travel all over the state every day for work, it’s not out of the ordinary to be 100 miles from home on a daily basis, so I’m making a contingency bag. It it will live my 12.5” and 24 hours of sustainment. But I want a little more capability, and I’m willing to carry it into the house every evening and back out to the car in the morning. Just different philosophies. All is good as long as you know your own reason “why”

[@OGLvcky]

“No liquor!” That hit home man..

The NVG alone puts you wayyyy above the curve for any civil unrest.

Dude..... I need some help....... I have watched like 50 of your videos today trying to figure out what the name of the song at the introduction of this video. I would love to listen to it. But can't future out what it is. I would appreciate it if you helped me find it. Thanks! As always appreciate your content and perspective.
