Top 5 Sleeper Guns

If you're talking about having to go to court, I'm thinking ANY suppressed gun would be a big disadvantage. Sleeper or not, I'm pretty sure a good prosecutor would tear that up.

[@MaximRecoil]

The only gun in this video that they said was in the "court sleeper" category was the Remington 870. The others were in different "sleeper" categories, which they explained for each one. The other "sleeper" categories didn't even have anything to do with self-defense, much less going to court.

[@blarghinatelazer9394]

@@NACAM42 I feel like that wouldn't make much of a difference. Those guns, specifically, have been kitted out to be integrally suppressed. The Smith and Wesson maybe, but even then part of me feels they'd look through your records, ask you about the suppressor, see whether it's been used recently and you'd just look worse to a court.

[@realQuestion]

A 12-gauge pump-action shotgun will never really be obsolete. I'd lay money 300 years from now, shotshells will still be manufactured and people will still put them to use. Those Smith 422/622s are a very handsome firearm. Clean lines. The Aklys integral suppression conversion costs a fair bit, but less than its competitors, e.g. AWC Amphibian. Everyone wants an M1 carbine! Paratrooper version for me, please. .30 Carbine is an underrated round, but I especially like it out of a handgun :) Thanks for the cool video.

[@alankordzikowski7670]

The M1 Carbine is a handy little firearm. I regret selling mine. However, depending on what type of magazines you have it could get lumped in with the AR-15 “assault weapons” group. I hate that term. It’s wood stock, like a mini14 makes it less “sinister” looking.

Just recently got into the M1 Carbines after I was passed down a couple in my family. Basically the ground work for the modern AR’s .

Something made in 1943 in my case is becoming one of my favorites in my collection.

[@fakecubed]

I think kinetic weapons are here to stay for a very long time. I wouldn't be surprised if we're fighting wars on Mars in a hundred years using something that's basically an AR-15. Dreams of lasers and plasma weapons in the hands of the common soldier or civilian are probably a long ways off. The real question is, will electromagnetically propelled projectiles overtake chemical propellants in the near future? You can already make a handheld "Gauss gun" right now with a little know-how and some off-the-shelf hardware, but it's not exactly practical. There's also caseless ammunition as a possible replacement for the traditional brass and lead. We could see some changes, definitely, but I have a feeling the basic technology behind small arms is going to be quite recognizable for centuries to come.

[@grenemyr1833]

They can fit a suppressor on that 930 too!

One of my favorite shotguns to play with is one my dad bought about 15 years ago. It's an old 870... the thing was painted some sort of drab green by the police dept who carried it locked in a squad car cabin carrier.

[@gardnorluis]

[@philp411]

You definitely expanded my idea of sleeper guns. To me, they’ve always been the gun that wouldn’t cause an uproar if it was used or carried for defensive purposes. As you first stated, this is often aesthetics. A few on my list were the 870, the M1 carbine, a Mossberg MVP Patrol and a Remington 7615. Perhaps the new Ruger PC carbine could be in that realm. Or maybe the fightlite SCR to a small degree.

I think that the Browning A5 would have been a better fit for the shotgun spot. It has wood furniture, looks just like an old grandpa gun. And of course it's semiauto. 5 shots in under 3 seconds.

[@donaldferguson9418]

[@Gottaculat]

I just recently bought my first firearm, and I'd definitely say it's a sleeper. It's an Astra A-100 in 40SW, 13+1 mag, double action and single action. I bought it because it feels great in my big ol' paws, it was less than $300 after taxes, has a reputation for being reliable, and 40SW I think is a nice compromise between 9mm and 45 ACP. The downside is the Astra A-100 hasn't been manufactured since 2006, so spare mags can get pricey (north of $60), and replacement parts can be a tad tricky to find. It's also in no way a concealed carry pistol, as it was designed to emulate a Sig P228 while being economical. Makes for a solid home defense weapon, though. I'm already saving up for my next pistol. I'm on the fence between an used civilian version of a Makarov (has thumb screw adjustable elevation rear sight), or a new Walther CCP M2. The Makarov clone is sub $300, whereas the CCP M2 is a tad over $400. I'm leaning towards the CCP M2 as 9mm is ultra common, and the weapon is designed for concealed carry. People keep trying to push Glocks on me, but I really hate the grips on Glocks, as they feel like they're jabbing my palm with a spike, and I also don't enjoy shooting the M9, which dealers have also tried to steer me towards. Let's face it, if everyone had the same shooting experience, there wouldn't be so many dang models of weapons. Gotta find what works for you.

[@m1garandlvr420]

I'm always so sad when I see an M1 Carbine in videos. I had a WW2 Pacific theatre M1 Carbine and i shot it for a few years and then it blew up in my face. I had an out of battery discharge. I still have the gun but it blew the bolt off and blew out the beautiful stock it had that I first fell in love with.

[@bobgarr6246]

So get a new bolt, replace the stock, have a Smith or someone competent check it over and bring it back to life. If that's all that happened it's not dead you know, fix it.

[@johnkiss8804]

Thanks guys, I'm glad you touched on the M1, I'm not the average 5'11 US male and being shorter I have found the M16 or Winchester 30-30 my grouping is like a football field. With the M1 or the Marlin 30-30 I can keep it pretty tight. I'm not saying one is better than the other but it is a better fit for me. Down side of the M1is after 2 full bananas you really should stop, swab the barrel, and let it cool before you run 2 more. And like you said the springs wear pretty fast. Still my goto when I need to put a slug where I want it under 300 yards.

I love my .22 model 422. I got it for over 10 years and still working perfect.

[@WSY01]

Here in Europe, more specifically, The Netherlands, sleeper guns do NOT exist. All guns are the same in the eyes of our government. Highly illegal that is.

Bryan Wilson Well I wish it was that easy😅. I'm gonna say 1 thing; liberals.

[@MacCaskill]

Yes, WImob420! The People should always be disarmed and at the mercy of their all-knowing, all-powerful government. I am sick of you paranoid elitists who feel your fellow man is not to be trusted and everyone should (for their own good, of course) live and think exactly like yourself and your smugly arrogant friends -- trustingly at peace in the arms of your beneficent government. Governments accrue power. It's what they do. Can you name just one in our species' history that did not eventually descend into totalitarian dictatorship? In the past century governments worldwide have, for the greater good, of course, slaughtered hundreds of millions of helplessly unarmed subjects, unable to resist ("citizens" are armed, "subjects" are not).

[@WSY01]

@@MacCaskill The government here sucks biiiiig time. Almost makes me want to move to another country.

I own a 622 and you are right, accurate and a great trigger. Disassembly is kinda quirky though.

38 special/357 mag small frame revolver

[@whatsup5914]

Marcos 128 what about just a cheapo 22 rifle with an tube or small 5-10 round mag something that looks safe and unassuming and I get that 22 is a shit round for self defence but if I fill you with 5-10 rounds of 22 in an upstairs hallway it'll at least give me time to wack you over the head with the stock and I'm pretty sure I'm not gonna miss that much when the guy is 5-8 feet Infront of me or alternatively you could use a cheap pump action or single shot with the barrel cut down to 18" and the overall length being 27" so that it's as short as possible so you won't hit your door frame but it still looks unassuming and at hallway distances 1-5 rounds of buck will give me at least enough time to wack you over the head with the stock till you see rainbows

[@Cliff_Dixon_42]

Very first semi-auto pistol I ever had was a S&W 422 (alloy frame, blued finish) -- six-inch barrel, adjustable sights (aftermarket). Twelve-round magazines (got those JUST BEFORE the AWB '94 capacity limit). Not bad w/ the right ammo. No suppressor, though.

[@johnwizeman3894]

Don't get me wrong the 30 Carbine is cool, but they are not reliable enough for me.

[@shanesizemore3654]

John Wizeman change the springs and you're good to go. Mine wouldn't run worth a damn til I changed them out. Cost me like 20 bucks

[@ZackMarrs556NAT0]

John Wizeman get some wolff springs, a NIW USGI mainspring, NIW USGI 15 round mags and use high quality ammo. If that doesn't work, you have some out of spec parts

[@Doomer1984]

There is a great video on forgotten weapons where he talks about its reputation. They were well liked during ww2. Kept well oiled and with new springs they work fine. The magazines were replaced regularly to avoid the issues with them.

[@johnwizeman3894]

Or I could just use an AR for my defensive rifle and not worry about any of that.

[@johnwizeman3894]

I watched that one too, which emphasizes the Carbine being a decent weapon with a whole infrastructure to support it. We don't have that anymore, but we do have a whole infrastructure to support a rifle that is already reliable. The AR15.

[@alanfox4055]

My house shotgun is an 1878 Colt double barrel,double hammer,double trigger 12ga that with practice have learned how to shoot well and reload fast. My house handgun is a S&W model 19 357 with night sights. The best thing about using these types of guns as house guns is there are no compressed springs in magazines that might weaken over time and fail when needed. Two sleeper guns that work for me.

[@Jazzman-bj9fq]

I would agree that a shotgun configured for bird hunting and a surplus weapon like an M-1 Carbine could be considered unobtrusive but I think what you guys should have done was consult a defense attorney who actually has defended at least a few clients in a citizen vs citizen shooting or even a youtuber I know who has himself/herself been involved in a shooting and actually went to trial for it. I have to say, you go runnin' around with a suppressed weapon with a can on it like those and you're involved in a shooting with another citizen, you're asking for trouble. Doesn't matter what you think is low profile/low key or 'no big deal' but with those suppressed weapons other people as in a jury are going to look at those in they way they look at weapons employed by assassins, the mafia, black ops and spy stuff and that's going to affect how you the shooter are seen, and it's especially going to have an affect on the police when they first come to investigate. It's the same thing with using some really exotic, or homemade, or negatively branded ammo like for instance the "R.I.P." ammo designed for over the average destructive power on the human body. Over the counter defense ammo should be fine but anything that is advertised for some kind of 'super destructive effects' is going to turn some kind of opinion against you. Even if a shooter goes to trial and is exonerated, there would be a very large legal cost because I'm sure you'd want your own retained attorney and not a public defender. Go ahead and ask an attorney what his/her fee would be for a trial like that, you might be very surprised. Once again, it doesn't matter what you the shooter think or what other shooters think, it's going to come down to the police, the DA's office and in the worst case scenario the jury. It's also quite possible to win a state case but lose a civil case in the amount of several hundreds of thousands of dollars or even a few million dollars. Get some information from someone who actually knows what trouble you can actually create for yourself in weapon and ammo selection.

[@MaximRecoil]

The only gun in this video that they said was in the "court sleeper" category was the Remington 870. The others were in different "sleeper" categories, which they explained for each one. The other "sleeper" categories didn't even have anything to do with self-defense, much less going to court.

[@kelleymcmahan6457]

M-1 Carbine is one of the most underrated US Military rifles in a long time.

[@WasatchSasquatchUtah]

Now all the gun stores online and across the nation will be sold out of the selections they presented in the video.

[@90draghetto]

You should do the “top 10 red dawn guns” and maybe do it with 5 guns and 5 rifles... i would love it

[@connorstanley777]

If had to pick a sleeper rifle it would be a lever action rifle and my sleeper pistol would a single action revolver and both of these guns would have wood furniture because wood apparently makes the gun less dangerous to liberals.

[@kylekenney1907]

Dad got an SKS for like $90 a few decades back and the thing has never given us any issues. He said he never had to adjust the sights either because it was dead-on out of the box.

[@jamessmith-ow1bf]

If you want a sleeper , how about the Ruger Mini 14 and Mini 30. Both look like traditional old school deer rifles when loaded with 5 shot magazines. But when loaded with 20 and 30 round magazines they become for all practical purposes the equal to the AR and AK for SD needs and no one ever called the Minis "evil" because they're sleepers !!!!

[@mallanac]

Grandpa's old 870 - does the barrel bend upwards or does the rail on top slope downwards?

[@Alexx120493]

I would add a Ruger Mini 14 Ranch Rifle with the regular wood stock. 5.56, 30 round magazines if needed and way cheaper than the M1 Carbine

[@timothymiller9067]

The sm 422/622 is a great gun. I've had one since I was a kid. My slide cracked some years back and smith replaced it with what they said was the 2nd to last slide they had left. So unless they make more parts that might be what kills the 422/622

[@theecho4858]

But are internally suppressed weapons legal, or is a permit required as with a regular suppressor?

[@skyym3629]

Those S&W 422 and 622 hand guns are really cool. I haven't seen those until this video. I like that the barrel is low because it brings the recoil down more into the palm of your hand instead of on top where it wants to flip upwards. I am going to keep my eye open for one of those, preferably the 422 but I will take which ever I can first. Thanks for the information y'all have shared with us throughout the years and especially for the entertainment of all the videos you have made. That can't be easy and I can only imaging the time and preparations that goes in to making just one video. You guys seem like really good people and the type of people that I have always had around me, including my family. Thumbs up as always and God bless.

[@boofingdragon]

Try and take that suppressed 22 on a hunting trip out west. There are drawbacks for sure. Driving across country with a suppressed gun is next to impossible these days if you follow the law,

[@fatjeezussouthtexasoutdoor5244]

Any semi-auto 22lr carbine with 10+rd capacity is a great home defense choice for seniors or disabled persons who can't handle recoil. For my 74yo mother, I put together a Rossi RS22 with 25rd mag and barrel-mounted flashlight that she keeps by her bedside. It weighs 4.5lbs and has virtually NO recoil.

[@sheepdog8395]

Years ago a sergeant for a beach town (rough town, population quadruples in the summer and rift raft staying in the hotels in the off season) carried a 1911. This was not the Dept. issued gun. He was an avid firearms guy and got permission from the Chief to carry it. During a stolen car chase and apprehension he fired during the arrest of the driver (probably sympathetic reflex as he grabbed the door handle with his left hand and his right hand fired). Long story short he was charged with murder and the prosecutor introduced several gun rags with a 1911 or 45 acp on the cover saying "MAN STOPER". This is exactly what you're talking about. For the day and time this officer carried a non issued firearm of a higher caliber.

[@brians2733]

I am just curious (and not sure how much you respond to comments of videos you've posted months ago), but is there a possibility you could list the guns you mention in either the video notes or do you list them on your website? I understand if you're doing a 'list' video that you may not want to give out the list before people watch the video, but many of the guns you discuss are a bit obscure (such as the integrally suppressed firearms or M1 carbine variants) and it would help to list them so viewers can research after watching. Thanks for the great videos!
