The Call of Duty classic: M200 Intervention with firearms experts Jonathan Ferguson & Danny Michael.

[@RoyalArmouriesMuseum]

A big thanks again to the Cody Firearms Museum for letting us film this week's episode around their iconic firearm and making our Gen Z editor very happy.

Thank you! And thanks to Cheytac for the donation. PS down to 1v1 m8.

This breakdown of the legendary Intervention was stellar and the MLG thumbnail takes the cake because Jonathan knew it would have interested old generation COD players😎.

Then send them my congratulations, please ;)

Jonathan usually overshines people a lot, but Danny is also a great exhibitor and a bit of a character, great presentation by both of the lads, excellent!

[@RiposteBK]

Amazing dedication from yourselves and Cheytac in recreating the camo scheme. It might be gaudy, and it definitely will not help with your visibility, but it's still iconic and a huge part of a lot of people's collective memory of guns in games. Cheers for the hard work guys! 👍

[@LysergicKids]

I appreciate how there's been multiple channels covering the M200 Intervention this week, all of which provide unique insight.

Because it needs saying every time: God bless your video editor, they do a great job of just adding an extra flair of humour on top of just doing their base job really well.

[@Chaosrain112]

From the bottom of my heart, thank you to Jonathan and the RA team. Bringing this stuff from popular culture into the educational limelight tickles me so much. Leaning into all of the memes and stuff appeals to my millennial brain, it's very nostalgic. Editor clearly loves their job and is a memer themselves. Top shelf shit! *edit: cheeky golden tiger Desert Eagle ending! 😆

[@Chiller11]

It’s a fascinating acquisition for pop cultural relevance. It’s evidence of the impact of gaming on firearms culture. The pathway from gaming to airsoft is a reality.

[@lawrencemartin1113]

I've never played a computer game in my life. Never will. But, I totally understand the importance of this acquisition as a cultural icon and reference in the cross over world of real firearms and fantasy game world. I do have some reservations about that obsessive world of violent games as well, but also understand it's never going away and it's a huge part of the way the world just is. For what it's worth, I also actually think that the camo scheme is pretty cool too. More Glamouflage than Camouflage, but as a piece of art, it's amazingly well done. Another interesting video....TICK. 😊

[@retrolinkx]

>I've never played a computer game in my life. Never will. Holy based. Keep it up, boomer.

[@Overworkt]

I understand your reservations at face value, but some studies have discounted any connection between 'violent' games, and an increase in violent behaviour in real life.
