3:13 I love how he rolls his eyes at the remake of Total Recall. The original was great. The remake had nothing to offer.

[@nerd3d-com]

Ian at Forgotten Weapons just did a range test of a calico 9mm. In his initial review it seemed he was expecting another Zip gun. Except, It ate all the ammo he had with him, not a single malfunction. And, he utters the the words every one who's ever got to fire one says. "My trigger finger is getting tired"

[@Anarch_E]

If I could get my hands on one of those, Im getting red tracer rounds for it and buying a stormtrooper outfit.

[@spartan1010101]

[@chadwickbossman8803]

You guys have never seen Star Wars, I think the the S11 looks more like a “blaster rifle”

[@CrazyJean]

It's so cool

[@Random-news-517]

Just get a couple of high point carbines that are white

[@johnnieves3017]

look it up there back i just looked up the website and there still in production

[@themightysudds]

Have had one for many years. Kind of a pain to shoot in that you have to have all the settings perfect but astonishingly accurate. The balance of this gun is insane. The recoil goes straight back so there is no barrel climb. The ability of this thing to bullseye even while rapped firing is amazing.

[@Sargonarhes]

I have a Calico M-110 pre-AWB, and a 100 round mag dump on it tires out my trigger finger. I think the main problems are the ones made after the AWB, because 20 years old and mine still works very reliably .

100 percent true they were garbage

[@David-oi7xh]

I've got one and I ran all 99 rounds through it without a problem. I must be a lucky one.

[@Don_Neto_Jr.]

That is one cool pistol! I remember 1st seeing this gun in the movie The Crow with Brandon Lee, One of the baddies had the Calico.

[@csflower]

I am reading a novel where a mix of good guys and bad guys are shooting up other very bad guys with a gun called the Calico. So I had to look it up. Written in 1999 by John Connolly - his first PI Charley Parker novel. Looking it up helped me understand why this gun was chosen. LOL!

[@stringstorm]

You also see them in the first CnC game! Basic Infantry used Calico M900. But they called them ingame as GAU-3 Eliminator.

[@shadowteam9943]

It’s good to see this get some love.

[@cadetleo1696]

Such a BEAUTIFUL 80s Blaster The 80s was truly a GREAT Decade for Guns Very Well thought out and Artistic designs GOTTA Love Calico man💯✊🤟👌🔥👍🤘💪

[@quellenathanar]

I've owned 1 for about 30 years. It does great if you use good ammo. Most plinking rounds won't have enough recoil to cycle the next round consistently. You may even get a random burst fire if the bolt assembly moves far enough to the rear to cycle the next round, but not far back enough to engage the disconnect. For home defense, I recommend you use something like a +P JHP 147g. It gets dirty. It's extremely easy to field strip. The back of the receiver doesn't change its angle with the barrel, so if you use a cleaning rod, it will have to be from the front of the barrel. I personally use a dropline cleaning system to avoid wear on the crowning. I never liked the steel/plastic sights. I mounted a beautiful 30 dollar green laser on mine. (It's amazing how inexpensive and bright they are now). For me, there is nothing like firing from the hip accurately while maintaining full awareness.

[@alexbarnett8541]

Neat carbine. I've always liked them.

[@wardhiigleywardhiigley3229]

That's the gun biggie was rapping about in warning

[@elmatadorhigh1082]

[@danbanks7930]

I bought a used m 100 ( 22 pistol mod.) with 100 rnd mag. ...had many problems with the cheap quality of the internal parts if the gun bolt...and the plastic runners in the mag...i have a gun Smith friend that fixed it twice...but it was a novelty at best...the rifle version looks much more stable and better overall of the designs...

I am in Australia and I very nearly bought the .22lr version in 1993. I would have had it confiscated by the government 4 years later if I did but at least I would have been able to say I owned and shot one!! I'm mad I didn't buy it!!

That cylindrical clip is bad ass it comes in 50 round and 100 round i think

[@Crazycoyote-we7ey]

Thats Vash the Stampedes pistol right there then the second version he switched up to a p90

[@GeneralHawk505]

007 Agent under fire i remember this gun in that game. Was curious so I looked it up all these years later.

[@theob.8458]

it also had issues with reliability and the pp-19 "Bizon" was not "experimental" but just saw limited use with internal security forces.

[@simondr70]

Seen in Dark Angel 1990 to.

[@vondantalingting]

If they only made an automatic version for militaries and gendarmes, they might've had a chance to stay in the game.

[@azrael1874]

They did and no one wanted them over the HK MP5

[@BioClone]

On this point I guess the p90 could already get the role.

[@arielaguirre1364]

Have they fixed the jamming problem? I the reviews I’ve seen a they couldn’t get the whole 100 rounds out. Had to keep ejecting jammed rounds to continue.

[@justineagle6176]

apart from target practice what would you need a 50 or 100 round magazine for?..... range suitable for hunting?

[@azrael1874]

I miss my M900 😭 not so much the liberty 100 awesome weapon wish I still had it

[@EliHutin]

Amazing gun.

[@markp8295]

4:46. There guy says it was the first helical magazine. Wrong. Evans rifle 1873.

[@sameerthakur720]

The magazine is no e. The Bizon has a similar one. The FN P-90 is somewhat similar (but only somewhat).

[@sameerthakur720]

Unique, not 'no e'.

[@claytonmoore8472]

The mags are limited to 100 rounds everywhere, why aren't they still available elsewhere?

They are available. You can order them right now. Apparently they are on a 4 month delay due to orders.

"Laws" don't protect anyone. They're simple made to punish. And usually not very effectively.

[@tiortedrootsky]

Russians didnt copy the magazine. Calico has moving part at the center and on bizon the outer part is moving - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jXnal42Gp7CLfNU

[@RD-cw9ik]

Not one of them talked about how it runs because it was a constant Jamomatic.

[@USSRf5]

Yes, yes, yes... This is the story of AK 47, when it is constantly compared to StG 44 and Kalashnikov is accused of plagiarism. And out of the similar only the shape of the magazine, and the gas pipe over the barrel. And that’s it. Here and the layout is different,tasks. Calico is all about commerce. " Bison" for the Army and Interior Forces is when you can at least hammer nails with a weapon, if necessary. In addition, the "Bison" is definitely ...prettier as a weapon, which means that the normal ergonomics and normal length of the aiming line. Also, if this project was successful, the weapon would not have gone sunk into oblivion right? )

[@potassiumcyanide3857]

Is this came from fallout?

Ronald Reagan hi had mine for 29 yrs no failures in material .i have had bad ammo in that when ammo discovered to b bad was saved and later disassembled to have found the primer not not encircleing the whole primer pocket just bought brand new rifle from them.they really r misunderstood firearms

[@NKA23]

Due to the assault weapons ban the system had never time to overcome its' "childhood diseases". Remember the severe reliability problems the AR-15 platform had when it was new, today the AR-15 is considered to be extremely reliable. Like they say in the video, the idea of a relatively compact firearm having a large mag capacity of 50, 100 or 200 rounds is intriguing. There are some videos online of people who fixed their Calico's feeding problems and they work just fine...

[@Bigassbaker]

did you wind it? nobody ever reads the fucking manual

[@azrael1874]

Ppl you have to wind it properly have the winder handle at the very top lined up with the mag peep window on top then wind the thing as directed and stop in the same spot, I never had an issue with either of the two I had maybe one time I over wound it or maybe had just one round extra in the mag and it wouldn't load that one round but I took it out and the gun ran perfectly

[@nerd3d-com]

Calico's are excellent at removing the low IQ's from the gene pool. If you don't charge the mag it won't feed. RTFM or DIE.

[@Michael-pf8we]

Made in state they are illegal in

[@thestreets.aka.joshua]

[@nickgiroux6]

Aren't these guns incredibly unreliable and cumbersome?

[@azrael1874]

The problem with them is a lot of ppl don't know how to wind them properly they either under wind them or over wind them and that will cause the weapon to not function properly, one thing I learnt from the M11 family of weapons is that the magazine is the true heart of the weapon if you have a bad mag your gun will jam every time

[@thespectator2976]

Worst gun ever made :) This one loves "the jam" :)

[@azrael1874]

Probably over wound it I never had a problem with either model I had my only complaint is that the trigger on the liberty 100 was way to stiff wasn't fun to shoot at all but my m900 was the best ever, super easy and smooth trigger pull, ppl normally say the intratec tec 9 is the pappy of the jam o matics but if you find a interdynamics KG99 or at least a tec 9 with a KG 99 upper receiver you best grab it those are made very well never had as much as a hiccup with that gun
