Oh man, this video is long overdue! I've been super busy lately but more details to come on that later! This video was shot during the weekend of shot show and I met up with steve so he can show off the blasters they're making! The rifle was made right! I was surprised to see how much went into building these guns. It really made me appreciate all these companies that put in a lot of work to build a well-tuned machine!

So let me be clear on and address alot of the comments.
Dont think that steve or anyone in the video is trying to come up with some wazzu shit. Dont get me wrong, what hes saying to ryan and i is news to us only because we dont know this stuff lol. Steve is a good buddy of mine who has a passion for these guns hes making and like i said, after i shot them i was impressed. Can you slap a gun together or buy one from a manufacture that shoots as well? Hell yes you can and thats awesome! Personally for me i love the passion he has for building these guns and i wanted to give him a platform to speak about his passion as i would for any one of my friends.
ALSO! yes i understand the rail looks like other rails on the market. Lets be honest, that can be said about every rail, reciever group and accessories on the market. The guys and gals at ripcord added their own flare which to some may not be needed and again.. THATS OKAY
Thanks for sharing!
And that is cool man!
Let's see Ripcord do a walk thru video of "their" manufacturing plant and see first hand all "their" products being machined! Many companies claim to manufacture their own products, but hardly any actually will show it being done! Seeing is believing! Do a video of that Milspec_Mojo!
@@seniortac4175 I like that idea, I mean his pitch sounds good but people can pretty much throw the same animal together, but he said "affordable" I believe and a bunch of other stuff (tolerance,fitment,material grade,etc)
The Legend Milspec! Loved the collab with Garand Thumb. Would love to see you Lucas and Garand Thumb all collab again together!
As a materials engineer I appreciate the comment/forethought of using the same material of the gas block and barrel so that the thermal expansion coefficients match. Very cool!!
Also helps prevent galvanic corrosion.
It literally doesn't matter, because they will be at vastly different temperatures anyway. Temperature of the bolt plateaus while the carrier and chamber side of the barrel will continue to climb in a DI gun, in a piston gun the bolt and carrier barely get any heat.
I love hearing about this level of design when it comes to rifle design
@@jaredchin2731 it's why I love the mechanics of fire arms.
I’m surprised it even needs to be said. I’ve tried to match barrels and gas blocks in steel grade since I built my first rifle at 18 just using basic understanding of material science lol
The MLOK rail with a part blocked out by design really reminds me of the quad rail L119A2 that the Brits are running for their SF.
I searched it and you're right. Good observation. Maybe the UKSF community has learned something similar to what these guys are talking about too.
When the guy says “1.37 inch moa” you don’t convince me that he’s a rocket engineer of a gun builder. They build cool rifles and pick good shit to put in them. Let’s not do the whole triarc fiasco all over again with these guys please. Let the rifles work for a long time and prove themselves and it’ll sort out in the wash. This guy is acting like they do the best work on gas blocks as if bcm and solgw haven’t been doing this on $1400 rifles for years and years. This shit is getting really cliquey and influencer biased and fast.
1 MoA is fairly close to 1 inch. A lot of people use the two things interchangeably.
What happened with the Triarc man?
@@jasonlangreder7214 I finished a 13.7 Noveske/FailZero build and I'm in $2600 so far. It has what I want and shoots well so I'm happy.
Man I agree with it, UA-camrs are getting rich of dumb new comers. Since 2020 they do what they can to get rich. Triarc is a wonderful example. Crap product being hyped by UA-camrs and the owner of Triarc is so fat and arrogant he flashes how much money his making ripping people off in his b roll videos or his Nightvision videos flashing hundreds of thousands of dollars in nods and lasers when 2 years ago he never even heard of NVGs but now that he builds $500 dollar rifles and sells them to idiots for $2500-$3000 he can afford all the NVGs and Gucci gear that Socom has in their entire arsenal. I love capitalism but I hate greedy arrogant fat fucks that lie and manipulate to sell a bullshit product. Like triarch “two track barrel” it’s a $50 dollar nitride barrel with a fancy name.
Cliquey and influencer based describes solgw.
HELL YEAH...!!!!I.!!!!! TENNESSEE in the House.... The GREAT 2A COMMUNITY "STATE"
Thank you for the video. Hope you are doing ok Mojo. This mandate sheet has been getting to a lot of good people. Wising you and your family well.
Quick Tip: A quick and easy way to check your gas rings is to remove your BCG from your upper, and with the bolt in the UNlocked position try standing the BCG up on end, with the bolt facing down. If it collapses under its own weight, you need new gas rings.
Not if you have one piece gas rings.
Good to know! I use a short stroke piston system so I have no use for my gas rings. I’ll tell all my DI buddies about that rule of thumb/ test
@@357stoitch7 you'll know if those fail is the bcg doesn't hold itself in the upper while the upper is up-ended.
@@alexc.6502 No, one piece gas rings cannot be tested the same way a traditional gas ring is tested. I dont think you understand what a one piece gas ring is.
@@357stoitch7 I use one-piece gas rings on a rifle of my own. And I can tell you with confidence that if they're worn, they will not hold themselves in the upper receiver. they will slide right out the back if upended. I've tested this multiple times, each time I've found my rifle over gassed. Switched out the gas rings. Now, it feels just as new as when I first built it.
Heat transfer and thermal expansion is absolutely necessary to understand when designing anything that functions on firearms. You want the thermal properties to work with you, not against you.
Lowshelf lowers but should have pulled a Centurion and went full M16 pocket. Seem like another decent option otherwise. Good source for Criterion barrels for sure.
I have been a fan of the old school quad rail for this reason, rigidity . I think its great that you are pushing this in design ,now I want one .
I love the machinist talk from behind the scenes. I nerd out on these sort of details myself. Great talk
But the guy doesn’t know what his talking about… he modeled for Triarc and now is using the same sleezy methods to push a cheap gun at high prices hoping to obtain wealth like Triarc without actually owning a real firearms manufacturing company
@@relentlessamerican9373 who
@@bravo6959 the guy milspec mojo is talking to in the video trying to sell you on why you should buy his uppers, I don’t know his name the guy that started this rip cord company.
from an engineer standpoint, nothing this guy is saying about his rail makes any sense other than the internal structure machined in.
Haha
These guys tend to over hype the new kid on the block instead of just letting the rifles prove themselves over time. This industry is entirely influencer based marketing now instead of just putting out rifles that work and letting them build a reputation for themselves.
Really, it "makes no sense" to you, but you are an engineer?
No BSME, I guess. Refuse Engineer? Model train engineer?
I don't suffer the BS Engr handicap, and have only a BS in Bio, but I've got a lifetime of mechanical experience (bicycles, motorcycles, cars) and I understood him fine.
Maybe your "engineer" degree isn't all that useful for -- you know -- actual mechanical aptitudes.
@@seanoneil277 idk man, it seems like there’s a flaw in the logic. The greatest moment is where the handguard mounts to the upper and that moment decreases in magnitude as you move away from the fixed point. I understand making the barrel nut longer because you essentially decrease the length of the lever arm and in turn the magnitude of the moment, but beefing up the middle of the rail doesn’t make sense from an engineering standpoint. The part of that rail that is going to fail is right after the barrel nut ends and where all of the mlok begins if it’s subjected to a load at the end of the rail. Filling in the mlok at the middle portion of the rail does not make the weakest link any stronger and it’s still going to fail in the same place.
Obviously they can’t really get rid of the mlok at the receiver end of the rail because guys like to mount slings and stuff back there so that just makes it seem like more of a marketing thing or a misunderstanding of the statics that go into it. I may be misunderstanding the design a bit or maybe I’m misunderstanding something else but that’s my take on it.
Larue handguards bolt to Uppers monolithic style beefie AF and 10+ yo design. B52s bombers are older than the 1st armalite M16 and its STILL our primary nuke delivery system against the commies. You can only put a bow on a pig so many times before its just snake oil. Looks cool af tho?
This platform was designed and sold to military before we had any computers....let that sink in w all this new applied handguard 'science' 🤯😂. Piston setups are way nicer to shoot and deal with than some 'scienced' 60 yo dirty gas system.
Love to see companies striving to make a better product. Props to rip cord, bought a criterion barrel from them a while back. Seem to only carry good brands
Got my 11.5 core barrel from them as well and they offer 12% off for veterans. Cool dudes.
Ripcord is doing some cool stuff, real strong attention to detail. Most of their uppers require/required thermofitting, they were doing the indexing/anti rotational pins between their uppers and hand guards. Cool shit.
Everyone has pretty much gone to thermal fit uppers with index pins. This ain’t anything new.
@@granite6196 😂
@@granite6196 🤣
Man I got one of their uppers and fit wasn’t tight at all and I had to drill my own hole for indexing pin.
@@atox4957 upper-to-lower fitment, or upper-to-barrel fitment was loose? Or both? You needing to drill THEIR upper and THEIR hand guard for the indexing pin is absolutely BS. I notice on their site the upper no longer is shown with the indexing pin. As to the fitment (honestly, not trying to simp for Ripcord, I have nothing at stake) there could be tolerance differences between parts, I’m sure you probably already understand that much though. I’m most curious if you contacted them with your concerns and if so, what they had to say about it?
This cat worked for Lucas. That’s awesome to see him doing his own thing
As a details guy, I can really appreciate what Ripcord is doing. I’m a fan and 100% onboard. I only wish their stock was more consistent, especially with the ability to buy everything at once (e.g., barrel, rail, gas block) just to save a bit on shipping. I’m waiting on the rail in A10 gray…hopefully soon! 🤞😁🇺🇸
BuT hE sToLe ThE rAiL fRoM lUcAS. Seems Steve was the actual brains there and was smart to go off on his own
Whats the context here?
@@Dexter-nw2fe Lucas started crying about how Pinkman stole his rail when he left T-Rex and the rail belonged them. Just the same shit with that dude. He claims drama follows him “cause of the haters” but he’s own worst enemy. Always talks trash about people in the community but then says the community needs to come together. Steve handled it more professionally and just said he wouldn’t comment publicly about it. At least from what I remember.
@@DPBida didnt know that, yea ive never been a fan of lucas, people say his gear is good but ive never tried it
If he was hired and bankrolled by trex to develop the rail, then, yes, he did steal it. We will never know, however, so there’s no point in dwelling on it
@@MrZeusyMoosey wouldn't t rex sue then?
You’re the damn man Mojo. Hope you’re doing well brother. Love all your content!
All this sounds like calling in a favor to a buddy to promote his shit so he can make money. Which is okay I guess but let the product speak for itself. It’s the best way to prove yourself in most industries. Passion is appreciated but ultimately the market decides.
My dude over here talks like no one is making solid ARs that work. Most of these don’t sound like real problems to be solved and most of his “processes” have been solved already.
Arfcom is calling you back, chairborne expert.
@@seanoneil277 Its quite comical how you are endlessly defending the design in every negative comment, all by yourself, while engineers are using actual engineering to disprove it. There is nothing new here. The OP is absolutely correct.
@@therealjohnsmith4811 No, the joke is you feebly trying to discern motives that don't exist. Projection? Or just childish arrogance?
Engineers are not magically gifted with mechanical aptitudes simply by earning a BS in some Engr field, and maybe -- just maybe -- a BSME has a leg up on hamfists who can't use a hammer properly. Whatever you've assumed here, it seems naive and an appeal to authority -- at best.
I didn't know about Ripcord before seeing the video above. If you'd like to discuss my background, then do so directly, please. Otherwise go back to being a keyboard wiseguy with a stupid handle. Stick with your talents.
@@seanoneil277 What happened to your reply buddy? I got the notification but it doesn’t show. Did you finally realize your wrong?
@@seanoneil277 Yeah, what that John Smith guy said. Lol. There is nothing new or revolutionary here. Yet another late to the game AR. Engineers from truly countless companies have been “nerding” on the AR for decades. Plenty of reliable guns out there at every price point. Hodge, Radian, Knights, Geissele, DD, etc make ARs that already outlast the owners. The industry needs another AR like it needs a case of hemorrhoids.
My AR shoots like a gun. It could have less recoil and probably does have less felt recoil to a larger guy so I don't focus on that. I like dependability and a little aggressiveness. If I wanted something to shoot like an Airsoft rifle then I would get one. But this video was pretty cool and informative
Been running a 10.5” ripcord rail for about 6 months now. I appreciate the design, but the weight is noticeable to me. Buuut… it’s clearly heavy duty grade. There was NO way I could get the rail on the massive barrel nut without heating it up in the oven, as oer instructions.
If I could throw it on my issued rifle, I would. Very confident it will hold zero with sighting systems. Love the look of it too.
The attention to thermal expansion is appreciated, for sure.
If you notice 2 ounces....then you might need to lift some weights.
@@DZ4295DBW Le Sigh. More than 2 oz, but I hope to be as burly as you some day, operator.
@@DZ4295DBW if you can’t notice 2 ounces, you might want to check your brain.
@@borkwoof696 Ummm yeah... I don't a 2 ounce different when it comes to weapons or weights. Everyone is always bitching about XY and Z yet refuse to simply get better, be better and thus doing better.
Oh and my main squeeze has a quadrail on it. Why?
Durable and fits my hands significantly better than the super thin keymod and mlok rails.
How much heat build up in the rail are you getting, compared to say a Aero or Midwest rail?
I wonder what's the story behind ripcord and geissele? If Im not mistaken, their barrel nut looked pretty identical to geissele except theirs is from steel. And handguard have similar resemblance as well.
The design was originally a trex arms collab with VLTOR but I think Jesse Pinkman took it?
Lol when I saw that rail I thought it was a Giessele and then they started talking
Yeah that rail is a copy of a Vltor rail
Products are evolutionary. If you’re a good engineer/inventor you will look at current products and note their downfalls and build off of that.
Example: steel vs aluminum barrel nut. That’s an improvement in itself if you understand basic heat transfer.
Ripcord specifically holds incredibly tight consistent tolerances. You pay for experience, quality, consistency and material selection, which to me means more than having a new snake oil handguard for you IG account. 🚀🌙
@@mrglocklover9 well the reason I ask, is I was wondering if there is any story behind the similarity. Beside the stuff you mentioned, there could be something more administrative reasoning such as they know each other, or Ripcord used to work in Geissele and he designed it? Stuff like that.
Chad, from School of the American Rifle does a awesome job explaining these topics and using gauges to demonstrate things. Would love to take his armor course.

@@HaloDude557 ASMR?
@@goinhot9133 it's a thing people do on UA-cam where they buy a more expensive microphone and record sounds and sometimes accompanying video, that supposedly super satisfying and make them feel very calm in that way that makes the hair stand up on the back of their neck. Some channels are really big and get a lot of views, people make a good bit of money doing it too.

Ok, so how did Mojo not know that the MOA opens up as the barrel gets hotter....
I'm concerned, fren
Because he mag dumps at 3 yards in almost every video he does. This dude doesn’t shoot past 100yds even though he has access to thousands of yards worth of shooting land in the desert.
I havent even watched the video yet and comments like these are concerning me 😂
Learn something new every day lol.
Lol because he’s an influencer not a skilled marksman or prs shooter
1 month late, I know. It's because he was a radio operator and Fed LE, not a marksman. Don has gained recognition by his demonstrated ability to shoot rifles and pistols fast in close quarters. That skill set doesn't generally require understanding the relationship between accuracy and barrel temp.
Mojo, check out School of the American Rifle channel on UA-cam to learn all about gas efficiency and upper and lower tolerance
Ripcord is pushing out some real cool stuff. Gonna be ordering some myself soon.
Very valuable information...
Still loving that intro theme
We Marines get excited over some easy stuff.....SCIENCE!
Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't companies like BCM and Daniel Defense spend countless hours already doing the science of mastering the gas systems? I own both companies and never have issues. I wish you all well as you do the same work--my question is not a criticism; rather, a curiosity about whether companies already share the manufacturing details?
If DD is a place you want to spend your money, that's on you. BCM, gas blocks have pretty good QC. Mine was a tight fit to my Ballistic Advantage barrel.
This intro is so sick I love the loading mags part love everything about mojo
I sent my Triarc 13.9 to Steve and he got it running it right and actually got it running as smooth as Triarc advertised but didn’t deliver. I will support ripcord and can’t wait for their new BCG to come out. They arnt reinventing the wheel they are just choosing quality material and ACTUALLY QC and assemble the way everyone SHOULD and lie about doing.
forgot steve left trex
I love how Mojo is just so excited lol Another amazing and educating vid, way to go!!
He got so excited that he thought claiming sub-moa groups using Tula ammo would sound believable.
One thing I look for in my lowers when I buy them is machine marks in the magazine well. You usually see waves in the inside if it's lower quality. I see it a lot in 60$ lowers.
I want one of these Ripcord Rifles! 13.9" or a 14.5", Id take either one!
Cool a solution to a problem that doesn't exist. I totally shouldn't buy a BCM rail for 100 less.
Go for it, gun bunny... We support your freedom of choice!
How much stuff in this video is paid for by our tax money? That's what I really want to know.
Ding ding ding. This guy knows what's up. The only reason this video exists is because a cops ex-cop buddy has a product to sell.
@@DaleGribbleMD I don't understand why my tax money is being used in this way. I pay taxes than this guy profits from UA-cam for his content. Apparently from watching several videos on this channel it's been going on a long time. I want a refund. Btw this practice is very illegal so why is it that the enforcers of the law are allowed to break it and rub it in my face. Bullshit.
@@BravoJulietAlpha I'd say we should stop paying taxes, but the federal reserve will just print more money to pay the government employees wages..
@@DaleGribbleMD Roger that.
Probably not as much stuff than what's getting left in the middle east by the Biden admin during a idiotic withdrawal. Probably not as much tax money as what's being sent to other countries to help them fight their crooked wars to protect American laundering interests. But... certainly more tax money on this stuff than what's being sent to protect our southern borders. Hopefully that answers your troll question 👍🏻
A few things to add. They needed to spec out a new gas block for these barrels. The core series barrels are known for being undersized on the gas block journal by the people who build guns and and spec them for a living. So good on them. I originally thought vltor built their rails but yeah must not be. Looks like a mix between a Geissele and vltor freedom rail. Both great rails so nice little mix up of them with their own touch. You can bash on any company you want but I enjoy more companies. Competition drives innovation, harder to do now in the AR world but nice to have options.
Wtf I didn't know Steve started a whole damn gun company. Are they partnered with vltor at all?
I have never seen Steve talk so long with out cigarette
Wait a minute, so these are police issue firearms correct?
As a RIS-2 fanboy this is a mlok hand guard I can get behind. I’ve always liked the smaller profile of mlok hand guards but I fears that my clumsy ass was gonna trip and jack it up. This is a nice compromise between weight, rigidity, and having enough holes to cool off
As someone who has a ris ii rail and my roommate has a couple ripcord rails it’s definitely an mlok rail I can get behind
It’s basically a Mk16 Geissele rail with a shittier mounting system lol

Enlarged barrel nut. Didn't POF do this step with an large barrel nut heat sink?
Yes
This is great. Another high quality manufacturer
Glad to see that awesome mustache it’s been missing for a while
Missed your content 😭🔥
These boys building solid stuff. About time someone built s rail around a steel barrel nut that isn't a half inch long. Geissele meets BCM and the MI NIGHTFIGHTER without the pinching effect on the bottom of rail. Awesome gun and awesome company
Every jumping ship on triarc after realizing they’re straight criminals 😆
Good Stuff Mojo! As a Marine it's really hard for me to stay focused for a 30+min video! Now I got to go ice my bath my brain matter!
10:39 says a little under 1 moa. Everyone makes this claim. "Sub-moa guarantee with factory match loads" blah blah. No. Dont make such a bold claim unless youre going to show it in video at 100 yds with multiple 5 shot groups. I guarantee youre over 1.25 moa on a good day. Probably over 2.00 moa with the cheap 55gr ammo youre claiming to have used.
At 10:50 you say 1.73 "inch moa." "Inch MOA" doesn't mean anything. 1 moa at 100yds isn't 1 inch if that's what you mean. It's 1.047", which is close, but when youre confidently giving people MOA figures on video for your product to the one-hundredth of an MOA (2 decimal places), then you demonstrate you don't know the difference between inch and MOA, you kind of lose a lot of credibility.
Imagine if Buggati stated that their new car has a top speed of 267 mile kilometers per hour, lol.
I hate to be the negative nancy in your comments, but you spend a lot of time talking about how you headspace bolts as if that's something special you do, and although almost no home builder is taking the time to do that, it is a very basic and easy to to do step. Are you taking the time to bevel your ejectors to reduce brass shaving build-up? Are you lapping the bottoms of your gas keys? Something I wish more companies did was gauge every spec of their bcg, barrel, and receivers to verify and guarantee TDP specs. I got so tired of well renowned companies putting out expensive, out of spec crap that I just bought all the SOTAR gauges. It takes 2 minutes to verify all TDP specs on the main components. Theres no reason high end companies shouldn't be doing that for every rifle they produce.
I don’t understand why they don’t make a 13.5 rail??
I have a 14.5 barrel. I am getting a suppressor but my handguard needs to be 13.5 so the suppressor sits flush with it.
But the only close handguard is 13.13.
Look like Mojo turned into a shill since he got fired. Dope content bro. Maybe you and Larry Vickers can collab on some stuff for caaaaaaaaaashhhhhh
Dude a collab with Larry would be dope! maybe we can throw Garand thumb in there and admin results and we can have a shill of a party ❤️❤️❤️
Ripcord's focus is good, better than a much bigger outfit like PSA that only cares if it "goes bang" and wouldn't even try optimizing.
Sounds a bit like Black River Tactical's perspective.

When I seen that 10.5” on full auto barely move 😦, I was like holy shit! That thing must be tuned perfect.
Still crazy how fast you blew up brother but I knew it'd happen. Been waiting for this actually.

Another company that exists but seems to never have much of anything actually in stock and available to purchase. Would have liked an upper.
I was 23 minutes into this video than realized this is where I go shooting. This is in Sloan right? Probably the one decently safe spot in Sloan nowadays. I like to keep going on the dirt road and go down m into that area on the left side, but last time some idiots were standing where you were, but shooting towards that big hill, despite my car parked clearly behind it.
Felt like I was in a damn war zone w/ bullets wizzing over my head.
I try not to take the spot you are at because I’d rather yield it to a group of guys like yourselves.
Definitely didn’t seem like a 30 minute video. More things to do check and research on
Isn't that a vltor freedom rail? At least give then a shout out instead of claiming y'all made it from the ground up.
How about this for science in the battlefield in the heat and in the freezing cold I don't care how accurate your AR-15 is and how decked out it is if it stops working it's useless AKs don't stop working I seen a guy use a toothpick to replace a firing pin retainer
I hate watching shit like this. Now i need him to build me one!
This grown ass man cried when he said he's not doing clear ano anymore
Honestly, any properly-built rifle with a Criterion barrel is gonna be a-ok with me. Nice to be able to put a face with Ripcord Ind.
I am not understanding the rail comment. A rail that is a typical mlok rail that is skelotonized is just as strong at any point (Fe de = Fl dl) . The connection method makes a difference, a longer rail has more potential to move under load because it is a lever. Having a shorter rail will add more structural rigidity than adding solid sections to the rail.
They should have just made it solid all the way down until the very end
You are not looking at the situation holistically enough. The extended lever problem is only one aspect of the situation. Steve didn't say he was trying to resolve the extended lever scenario where handguard rotates relative to upper. Why would you understand him as discussing that?
@@seanoneil277 I didn't talk about a rotational issue. He said that they wanted a stiffer upper in order to stop shift on something like a DBAL which as you know you have to site in. So if you are putting pressure on your upper and it flexes, your point of aim and point of impact will shift.
@@px106l Oh but you did describe rotational impulses, you probably just weren't thinking of them that way. Here's what you said -
"The connection method makes a difference, a longer rail has more potential to move under load because it is a lever."
Which way is it going to move, under that load?
Maybe you just don't picture things that way, but that's the likeliest movement under the scenario you described, which I quoted above.
@@seanoneil277 a rotational impulse describes torque (I think), I was talking about the point of a fulcrum but if I was unclear I am sorry
Deja vu could swore we had this talk in 2006 then DAniel Defense invented the MK18 and A4 rail mount systems then came out with it in keymod and mlok. So you solved a problem that was already solved.. good job and at this point there is several rails on the market that are solid… Geissele, BCM, DD and possibly the wedge lok rials which I think are just hype and marketing. I haven’t heard piece yet but I feel like your gonna ask $350. I remember when expensive guns and gun parts were expensive because they had been proven in combat. Now so many assholes copy something and ask the same amount as the proven companies. You turbo nearded the hell out of it? Right because that hasn’t been done already. You act as if the AR hasn’t already become a perfectly tuned weapon. This is so stupid. Sorry but DD, BCm, Geissele, Knights and sig sauer have already “turbo nerded the hell out of the AR and they did a wonderful job. I own all of the companies I just listed minus knights and none of them jam, all of them cycle like a dream, accurate as fuck, durable as fuck and some of my DDs and BCMs went though combat, have had 10s of thousands of rounds fired through them. Shit my mk18 hasn’t had a barrel change for probably 40k rounds and the rifling almost looks new. I just can’t take anymore bullshit marketing and assholes getting rich asking way to much money abusing the new comers in the firearms industry. 39 million new gun owners in 2020. Now holosun is asking $500 for cheap Chinese grade red dot, companies with no experience in manufacturing firearms are asking top tier pricing and they just pay off some UA-camrs, have a couple videos talking details and a thousand videos of b roll action. Isn’t this the guy that swore by Triarc? He probably saw how rich Triarc got off a mediocre rifle sold at HK prices and got away with it. Triarc literally has zero quality in their guns, they named a $50 dollar nitride barrel “two track” and asked cold hammer forged barrel pricing.. sounds like this guys doing the same but he is stealing the marketing of Geissele. I see you rails lock up system, it’s a cheap clamp system that $59 dollar rails use but you made it look like a Geissele. I hope Geissele sues you
Man, you spent a lot of money on guns and ammo just to not have a clue what you're talking about.
Your content has excelled so much since your separation from LE
Uuuh. Uh, uuuh🤣
Wow, haven’t seen this dude since the Cory and erika UA-cam days…
Can you do a video for budget friendly/ slow battle belt set up?
Great vid! Some b roll of the rifles while they talk about it would have been nice 👍🏻
Hey, anyone from philly here? Just trying to look for like minded people😁
Dang it! I just built a criterion. I wish I would have seen this video.
Does anyone own a rifle from this company?
How are these guys a business I have checked their site for 2 years never have anything available

A-10 gray 🤤🤤💸💸💸💸💸
Too much "in my opinion". When it comes down to 2 ounces vs s tad bit more rigid, I don't think either has any practical effect but if one did, it would be weight. SO, I would like to see a slow video of them shooting their more "rigid" rail, against a regular ol' MLOK rail all the way through. My understanding is that the flex is from the shot being fired and all of the recoil and flex it cause and I just don't see have a tad bit of extra 2 ounces worth of material is going to make it THAT much more rigid. So I'll go check the site out to get more of an understanding, but until a video is released, showing the difference in flex of them vs their competitor, and a decent brand at that (not some ebay rail), I'm calling BS on this so called "2 ounces of extra material makes it that much more rigid IN MY OPINION". I think most shooters, and I'm talking about shooters who train, will agree. Two ounces is way more noticeable in weight, than it is in the supposed rigidity it supposedly adds to the rail. Anyway, I'm completely open to being PROVEN wrong. "My opinion" don't sell rails.
I think this is more of a response for the people who fell for the MK16 rails bending meme. As far as I know, it's all rumor garbage. But if that rigidity is a concern, especially around the 14.5 length builds then by all means get the extra material.
I thought the thumbnail said discord industries at first
Always a treat when you get a mil-spec video notification !
Is Steve worked at TREX ARMS at one point?
Pretty sure he did and if I remember I think Lucas discussed it briefly stating Steve wanted to go off on his own didn’t know he was going to make a whole ass company making awesome rifles but it’s sick
Thats the guy always with lucas on trex arms training
