We review the Mandalorian’s Disruptor Rifle. The Amban.

On today’s video we review an exceptionally rare disruptor rifle, the Amban. Disruptor rifle’s have been banned since before the Empire and were banned for Military use a not too short time ago. This exceptionally rare weapon was a real treat to review!

Fun fact, mandalorians got tired of lightsaber wielders deflecting their blaster bolts, so they started using "slug throwers" (what we know as guns) so when the lightsaber wielders would try to deflect the shots, it would send molten metal straight into them at supersonic speeds instead. I believe some of them also used scatterguns, which made it impossible to block all the little pellets.

Former Imperial Droptrooper speaking here. It was a year after the first Death Star was destroyed. I was being deployed to Outer Rim jungle planet of Hissrich. the with my squad to help with complaints about pirates in the area. We had dropped from the Gunship and landed in a clearing. The clearing was next to a rather tall ridge to the south side. We searched around the forests for the pirates. I noticed the pirate on the ridge pointing one of these at us too late. He fired, and in that moment, my friend TK-3643 became dust. We realized the pirate stronghold was on that ridge, so we called in an airstrike and blew up the stronghold. We decided to climb up the cliff to take out the survivors. And guess what? That bastard with the Pulse Rifle survived! He managed to take out my squadmates TK-3849 and TK-9497 before I shot him. If he survived the blaster shot to the chest, he didn't survive the fall. We made it on top and killed the three people that managed to survive. After wiping out the pirates, we called the Gunship back and made it out of the atmosphere. We barely made it out of Hissrich airspace because the pirates had a squadron of stolen TIE Interceptors. We somehow managed to destroy most of the Interceptors and made it back to our main base on what was left of the Lothol dome.

Garand Thumb is like the Doctor Who of the gun world, it doesn't matter where or when the weapon was made or used, HE WILL BE THERE TO SHOOT IT

This is one of the only videos I watched the ads for. Dedication is unreal ❤

[@sardonic_smile_8752]

This was well done!

[@zedfury887]

Do you understand how much of a service you're doing to our culture when you put out videos like this!? Not only are they great for the regular viewer due to the entertainment value, but videos like this reach entirely new demographics! Chunks of people who otherwise may never be exposed to this side of KZbin....props man. What you're doing is maaassssiiive

Like a true SW fan, they went with *_practical_* special effects! ❤️ Kudos to your engineer's armor, _and_ to that gunsmith for his work. What a stellar video... 🤘

[@asaavedra78]

such a great video - thank you for this review!!!

[@clipazineofficial]

You guys are TOO MUCH for this! Excellent video!!

[@star-spangledfemboy8114]

18:22 caught me off-guard LMAO That is an absolutely beautiful rifle, the fact that it actually fires makes it 100x better!

[@duke6961]

I got my geek on and my firearms needs met in a single video. My day is done. Thank you.

[@baanibarnes9711]

Awesome! What a brilliant idea, must be more from the Star Wars canon you can replicate as 'real' firearms? Really enjoyed your work and presentation, look forward to more in this vein.

Two of my favorite things I grew up with, guns and Star Wars. Awesome job boys 👏🏻

There's a company called Kalashnacarver that makes Mando wood furniture for AKs and similar rifles based on some early concept art where they were considering basing the Amban off the Drauginov. The stock is surprisingly comfortable.

It is illegal for Mike to be this good in the Lore and on Acting as well.

[@danieltaliferro4566]

I normally don’t comment but it’s super impressive that you went full actor on this and kept it up I like your videos in general but this was on another level well done

[@edenromanov]

This was fun, ngl in character videos like these are the funnest to watch though honestly Garand Thumb videos in general are a riot 🤣

[@Thabosshoss]

I was having a bad week before watching this. I love the fact that they played this so straight. Fantastic work! And may the force be with you, always.

[@mr.randomperson9900]

My grandfather actually utilized this as part of the wookie militia. I can always remember the stories and jokes he’d tell. “OHWHHOHAAAAHPHHHOOAOOA” ahhh, I miss those stories grandpa.

Hilarious and love the channel. Best gun channel on KZbin, keep it up.

Glad to see yall enjoying a nice bit of snow while it is 84 Degrees here in Houston, and I cannot imagine how things would have turned out if Custer had some of those.

[@tklkw]

Mandalorians really weren't that hard to wipe out... having metallic shiny armor, has a tendency to "glint" quite often. So they think they are hiding in cover, but you just fire explosives whenever you see light glinting off their helmets.

[@GarandThumb]

tbh they did a lot better during the Old Republic days

Watching your Holovids always brings a smile to my face, you remind me of one of the troopers I served with while I was in the Imperial Navy.

I love it when you do stuff like this just.. without breaking character. At all. 100000/10
