The 10 DUMBEST Things I Saw at SHOT Show 2024

[@dameanvil]

02:00 🤔 Long-recoil system 308 rifle by Olympus Arms - Promises lighter recoil but physics doesn't work that way. 03:02 💸 Expensive pocket pistols - Small, featureless, and overpriced firearms with questionable utility. 03:49 🎸 Guitar case gun case - A guitar case that looks like a Pelican case, raising questions about its concealment effectiveness. 04:58 🔫 Shotgun upper for AR10 - 12-gauge upper for an AR10, turning it into an expensive and unconventional shotgun. 05:31 🛡 Crusader-themed rifle - Critique on the use of Christian imagery in firearms, especially Crusader-themed designs. 07:00 🚔 Militarized police gear - Criticism of the abundance of police and militarized-themed products at Shot Show, highlighting societal implications. 07:34 🚙 All-terrain vehicle - A peculiar and impractical vehicle design that garnered unnecessary attention. 09:05 🔥 Under-barrel flamethrower - Exothermic's under-barrel flamethrower raises safety concerns and questions about practicality. 10:50 🔄 Manufacturing trends - Critique on the industry's constant push for new products to appeal to consumers, urging caution and practicality.

That guitar case just looks like a normal guitar case to me. That's the one thing Deve got really wrong. People are very serious about their instruments, as they often cost WAY more than the average gun and they are much more fragile. It's not the 1900s anymore. Nobody is using those old Desperado cases, lol.

[@LdHrothgar]

@@psn64sat63 I agree, a BUNCH of the musicians I know would 100% put their guitars in that case, because airlines DESTROY them if they aren't in something solid.

[@dark2023-1lovesoni]

Number 1 is especially amusing since most well-known Long-recoil firearms, also have a reputation for having punishing/excessive recoil. Such as the Browning Auto-5 shotgun, Chauchat MG, and Remington Model 8. Literally, one of the top complaints for ALL of these weapons, is that the recoil is sharp, harsh, and unpleasant.

[@clinodev]

The Seecamp .32 is a classic gun! They were the only good tiny gun of their kind back in the 80's, were reliable with Winchester Silvertips, and unobtanium. Their business model is supplying them to folks who wanted one back then and couldn't get it, long before there were other options. If I were a gun collector, I'd get one, but as you say, impractical for modern use with many alternatives.

[@CH3TN1K313]

@ 1:44 you're completely wrong about the long-recoil. Go ask anyone who shot a Barrett vs any of the gas-operated .50 BMG semi-auto's how their shoulder is doing. In a perfect world with no friction, your "physics" would be correct, but with friction and spring tension, the longer impulse does provide a softer recoil through spreading out the same recoil force over a longer period of time.

[@athhud]

Even without friction the smooth-brained moron is still wrong. Only an idiot would think adding the weight of a massive barrel to the recoiling assembly would yield the same felt recoil. This design has been proven in a plethora of different long gun models. This dude has no business even being at SHOT Show.

[@TheIslandExpat]

Correct. Increasing time, kills off a portion of energy otherwise sustained.

[@vtxrecruiter]

Yes and time allows force to be absorbed slowly. 100 mph baseball has equivalent energy to a .22 lr ( about 90 ft lbs) getting hit with one hurts, the other can kill. But his beard and his big words make him smart and us dumb.

[@erikd2628]

I'll throw my 2 cents on the shot gun upper. The big appeal is that if you put in on a fresh AR10 lower with no stock it falls into the non-shotgun category (because the federal statute regarding shotguns includes the term stock) and is therefore just a 'firearm' limited only by the 26in OAL requirement, not the 18in barrel one. So you could build that upper into say, a 12-14in barreled 26.5in OAL 12ga firearm. People were doing this with factory fresh Model 500 and 870 receivers a while back, and I've also seen variations of this done with the existing .410 shotgun uppers.

[@jennifert6982]

Physics does work like that! Take the shocks off your car and see what happens? The car weighs the same but you might say there's more "felt recoil" being transferred to the driver. The spring in the long recoil action is taking energy and transferring it forward moving the whole barrel and bolt instead of just bolt and carrier. Also some of the energy will be turned into heat energy in the springs themselves. I'm not crazy about this negative format but I bet it out performs your positive video though, and really 500ish bucks is not that crazy for a seecamp pistol. That's like 3 trips to the grocery store for a small family these days.

Re: recoil, I think the natural definition of recoil is the maximum force experienced by the shooter. Thus, by spreading out the total momentum transfer over a greater period of time you can reduce the recoil.

The seecamp is cool. It's hand fitted of course it's going to be more expensive. Also the smallest current production handgun.

[@robertknight6824]

Your last point is very spot on. There's a tsunami of new crap every year by these companies. We have to pace ourselves as gun owners and consumers.

[@TROOPERfarcry]

"Impulse" is change in momentum with a time-component. Stretching the recoil impulse out over more time _ABSOLUTELY_ changes how the rifle feels to the shooter, just like having "crumple-zones" in a car makes the difference in a survivable accident versus a fatal accident.... and yet the same total mass at the same original velocited was brought to the same stand-still. _CLEARLY_ increasing the time-component of stopping makes a difference. And for context, I was an EMT for a while. A car crash actually has three collisions: 1 - Car hits tree/concrete-barrier/other car 2 - Person inside of car hits inside of car 3 - Person's internal organs hit inside of person. The third impact is what kills. Reducing that effect by spreading the exact same amount of force over a greater period of time is a live-saver. That doesn't mean that a 308 with a reciprocating barrel recoils less, but it means that the same force is spread over more time... and that makes a difference. "That's not how physics works!" The word "sophomore" is a portmanteau of two words "sophos", which means wisdom (like the word philo-SOPHY) ... and "moros", which means fool, like "moron". Sophomore is literally a "wise-fool" -- it's when a person knows enough to argue, but not enough to be right. That's what this conversation about recoil is. Here's a longer example to help make this make sense: if you have a heavy bank-vault door, the force required to close it remains the same, because the mass of the door is a constant. You can close it with just a couple of fingers if you push it over several seconds... but if you hauled off and punched the shit out of it, you'd break your hand... _and it STILL wouldn't close._ The difference between the two forces on the door is that one is stretched over more time, and so it's much easier on your anatomy.... hence a protracted recoil-cycle on a 308.

[@1steelcobra]

It's a .308 though, which doesn't kick that hard to begin with. And in an AR-10 that means the bolt already has a big spring with a heavy buffer slowing the recoil impulse down over a long distance. Reciprocating barrels make sense for something like .50 BMG, 14.5mm, or 20mm, where you're shoulder-firing something typically meant to be fired from a crew-served gun.

[@DragnEYE]

I'm a gunsmith that specializes in box fed competition shotguns and have hands on experience with that particular AR-10 shotgun upper. I really like the concept of a gas operated AR-10 style box fed shotgun. This one is poorly built and never made it through a full magazine with any of the variety of mags and ammo that were tried. In addition, there were clear machining errors when it was disassembled and it felt very much like a prototype rather than a retail product.

There's also a video of a photographer that keeps his $$ tripod in a rifle case and gets harnessed all the time by cops.

[@trioptimum9027]

Carrying your guns in a guitar case is one thing, but if that's your plan, I think Deviant is right: just buy a guitar case and monkey with the inside. (I'm sure somebody makes one with hard enough sides and a sturdy enough lock hasp, if that's a concern: guitars can be expensive, after all.) The problem there is, THAT case just looks like a gun case shaped like a guitar.

I agree fully with 'practice with what you've got, you probably can't outshoot your gear'. I've been focusing on getting the most I can out of one rifle and one pistol, doing dynamic challenges, and keeping it as minimalist as practical and I'm having a great time. I have a fixed 4x hunting scope I paid near to nothing for and it has done everything I've asked it to. At this point I try to ask myself "does this fill a need or specific deficiency; if no, will I have as much fun with it as it costs?" Don't even need to go to matches, you can just set up some steel poppers and a VTAC barrier and get a kettlebell and learn to shoot while you're sweaty, tired, and at a weird angle. As an aside I've got a friend who has one of those crusader lowers and the thing has absolutely horrible quality, stuff keeps going wrong with that rifle and it's all lower related.

Depending on age of the person (as we age, being "fashionable" tends to be less of a priority) especially as more options become available for women regarding ccw capable accessories, being able to find a bag that has the capabilities you need and a style you like will be easier. As a guy I can't say if any of those bags would fit in. But to my eyes they looked like normal purses.

For all you AR bros out there- he’s right. Most people cannot outshoot their gear. Yeah, we all like to talk crap about Palmetto State, but they’re doing more to put functioning and serviceable weapons into the hands of civilian everyday folks than any other company out there. Or, set aside a few hundred dollars and buy a bench vise, Magpul bev block, some brass and steel punch sets, a torque wrench, and a few AR-specific jigs… and go watch the School of the American Rifle channel. Then, when your bud with the $400 Palmetto says, “yeah, I want to do some upgrades,” you can swap out his barrel with that nice Criterion or Faxon and install that nice trigger and a better grip over that A2 stub… and now he’s got a greatly improved rifle on a budget so he can save for an optic and enjoy more range time.

The manufacturer escapes me, because I think somewhere in the recesses of my mind, my brain triggered itself into survival mode. I had to rewind thrice, when the presenter didn’t bat an eye at the $6,000.00 MSRP. For a 9mm 1911 carry gun. Not race gun, not super special sauce gun, but a ‘2011’ carry gun. Oh, but it did include an optic, as it had no iron sights. They were extra… Nice to find your channel. No jokes on your living room decor.
