Navy Vet Reacts to Zach's Gun Rants Compilation by mikeburnfire Part 2

[@steel8231]

Fun Fact: the AIM 180 was possibly the only gun in history to be simultaneously marketed as "Armor Piercing" and "non-lethal" (current terminology puts it as "Less-Than-Lethal"). The creator told the military that it's recoil was so low it could put dozens of rounds in the same hole and eventually dig through armor, and told police that since .22LR wasn't considered lethal enough to use in war that it was fine to just spray at criminals. It was adopted by some police departments and supposedly was pretty good at poping tires during police chases but then people started frouning on police carrying SMGs so they went back to carrying revolvers.

Oh! And no need for pause apologies! Folks can watch the original (and many of us have) for an uninterrupted experience. We’re here and with you for more of your reactions (or these types in general) to hear your input!

[@CinesterCharlie]

I know. Force of habit.

[@Xaintrix]

A lot of us that watched this have way less practical experience with guns. It’s nice being able to hear your own experiences and reactions.

[@CinesterCharlie]

Thanks. I appreciate it.

[@demonchild327]

He didn’t really go into it, but the AM-180 is a fully automatic .22lr sub machine gun that was adopted by the American Police Force for a while as a “less lethal” option. If I recall, they have different capacity drum mags, the largest of which holds around 250-275 rounds if I recall correctly. I believe Brandon Herrera and Donut Operator have a video discussing it: Brandon’s mostly focuses on the technical breakdown of it and shooting stuff with it, Donut mostly focuses on the Police’s application of it, if I recall. It’s been a while lol.

[@JoMiMi_h]

It was also used by the Rhodesian SAS for a bit, if I recall correctly.

[@revenantchild]

A large amount of them were also purchased and outfitted with laser devices for use in Utah Corrections Facilities. They are incredibly effective and are likely still in inventory at many prisons. Also if I recall correctly Louisiana Law enforcement Officers (maybe sheriffs or Police or both.) still have and use Thompson submachine guns as an alternative to shotguns or semi-auto rifles, many of them are modernized with reworked barrels/rail systems/magazines/etc..

[@mrmechpunch4653]

I love how Accuracy internatial were basically top tier disrespect to big gun companies of that time. Like 3 guys in a shed make a better sniper rifle than a multi million company that probably has 40 designers working on a single gun design.

[@CinesterCharlie]

Pretty crazy right? I like stories like that.

[@reillyroberts5376]

I’m glad your watching these

[@CinesterCharlie]

It took me awhile, but I got around to it eventually between all the VTuber stuff.

[@steel8231]

Sten guns also have a nasty habit of completely unloading their entire magazines for no reason, so don't walk around with the bolt charged and a magazine inserted at the same time.

[@CinesterCharlie]

I'll remember that if I ever have a sten gun lol.

[@steel8231]

@@CinesterCharlie IDK what your life looks like, might have an uncle who collects WW2 stuff.

[@denistardif6650]

In WW2 canada also manufactured STEN guns. The canadian STEN guns were nicer on an acount of beingade in a country that was plentiful in natural resources at the time. The STEN is the first purpose built submachine gun to be built by canada and many "british" STEN guns could possibly be canadian sten guns manufactured in ontario

[@terencepaul7475]

hey Charlie, was just wondering; if you havent known yet, Zach owns a few guns that he calls his "forever guns", guns that he will forever keep and never sell. For example, Zach owns a .45 cal 1911 pistol he got from his Grandfather and his Steyr AUG, both of these he will forever keep and never sell. So my question is, if you ever feel secure enough to own some again, what would be YOUR ideal "forever guns"?

[@CinesterCharlie]

I'd probably just get a 40 cal Glcok again.

[@Maxer4000]

If you think the Owen gun was weird, have a look at the Bren, it's a Brit heavy machine gun with a top fed magazine

[@CinesterCharlie]

I just looked at the Bren. It looks like I made it when I use to drink.

[@k96man]

The prototype for the Owen gun was created by a teenager in his spare time

[@erdnussbier4260]

flashback to Brandon's Kalashnibren

[@GhostBear3067]

​@@k96manan Australian teenager, so it may very well have been designed while drunk.

[@brennanhearn6342]

Man I haven't mentioned this, but your voice is AWESOME! My singing voice is a sweet baritone, but my speaking voice...Literally everyone I've played games online with says I sound like I'm 16 at most, and I'm 33!

[@CinesterCharlie]

Oh thanks. I get that every once in a while lol.

[@Krokmaniak]

About back thing. I used to have similar chair and had back pain after seating for too long. I switched it for more standard looking office armchair and it works much better. All I'm saying checking what kind of chair suits your back the best is worth a try even if it would help just a little.

[@CinesterCharlie]

I mean, I workout a lot. I did deadlifts the day before. Mostly just sore.

[@InugamiTheHound]

question: will you going out owning some guns? Try to vlog about them like other gun tubers on youtube?

[@CinesterCharlie]

No, it's not really my thing.

[@terencepaul7475]

3:15 uhh pretty sure you already outed their name a few videos ago man hahaha

[@CinesterCharlie]

True, but I don't wanna make it a normal thing.

[@revengehunter0184]

I will say that if you want a video series to react to, to learn a bit more about some different guns, the Iconic Arms series by Ahoy is great.

[@CinesterCharlie]

Alright. I might check that out.

[@hershh4227]

What Zack don't understand is the reason that they did not allow the sale of the G36 here in the states was not the little joke that he made but mainly because they were made from melted down happy meal toys
