One of my basic rifle students told me that he was a rooftop Korean with a BB gun. The rest of the men in his family had rifles, he was 16, they told him that from the ground he looked like one more rifleman, and that's what counted.
There is a video of a Korean man with what looks like an MP5 on a rooftop during the 1992 riot. LAPD actually showed up during that riot to try to confiscate it. Turns out it was a toy.
So it was true that some of them used BB guns to protect themselves and their businesses. What I heard was when the police disarmed them after the whole situation was ended, they saw a lot of them were armed with BB guns and used broom sticks to make dummy machine guns. I couldn't find any evidence that proves that before, but now, I see that it was kinda true.
I enjoy this video format of "Henry drinks a few beers and talks shit." Great video as always man. If anything this video showcases what a melting pot America truly is!
Hell yeah, too many people trynna demonize America nowdays. Yet they're still making their way here and shit talking it. They can dip if they hate it. Libtard socialists might as well resign their citizenship and gtfo since they hate capitalism so much 😂 Been here since i was kid, parents got the green cards for us, did my due time and im a citizen now. Love this country man, no other nation provides the same level of opportunity.
This was both amazingly hilarious and informative. Probably doing more for Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month then entire federal government combined.
Few things are more American than a guy from Hong Kong, who was a US Army officer, discussing guns, while drinking a beer made in Texas and making statements about the government keeping their noes out of other people's business.
Literally the Federal government has nothing to do with this, why do you guys always have to make it so obvious you're about as informed about this as you are things like a woman's orgasm? Gunnuts and inceldom, name a more iconic duo.

盒子炮 (hezipao), not to be confused with 核子炮 (hezipao) The pre-A2 M16s saw prolific use in SE Asia outside of Vietnam, seeing use in Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. In Singapore, the old Colt 653s and 654s were still being used by the navy boarding teams into the 2010s.
Yes, all Asians get along so well. My family is Taiwanese, my dad hated Koreans, my mom hated mainlander Chinese, both communist and nationalist alike. My grandparents on one side hated the Japanese but loved the Chinese, my grandparents on the other side loved the Japanese and hated the Chinese. I have some ancestors who fought the Japanese and Communist Chinese. I have other ancestors who have been persecuted and executed by the Nationalist Chinese over politics in Taiwan. The Asian fraternity you see here in the US really only exists in the US. But I like to think some of the most American stories come from my parents. My dad, who was tired of rampant(at the time) corruption in Taiwan, decided to move out. He knew from his time in the Taiwan Air Force that he liked guns, and he liked cars, so the logical choice was to come to America. My mom, who wanted a new life and to be free from her family, decided to move to America for a fresh start to her own life to get away from her hyper-traditionalist dad, my grandfather.
I have almost as much of a muddled heritage. My great-grandfather fled to Korea from Shandong province during WWII because the Japanese put a bounty on him. One of my grandfathers fled to Korea when Mao took over. My other grandfather, also of Chinese ethnicity, fought for the ROK during the Korean War. So despite being ethnically Chinese, I have a lot of ties to Korea and have heard a lot of anti-communist and Japanese sentiment growing up.
“Yes because they share a lot of recent history together let’s put them together to celebrate it.” Recent Asian pacific history: *literally on fire* “THIS IS FINE”
Bruh it is progress would u like to go back not having an Asian people and islander month? Also as an American of Asian decent I tell u right now, idgaf about my Japanese blood or "heritage" I only visited there a couple times to meet my mom's side of the family. Japanese made it clear I wasn't Japanese enough for em. Got treated worse than I did in America. Wtf do I care about their culture and history? I wasn't born there, raised there, or live there. I am American through and through. I just wish people would see me as American. But hey this is America and we are a fucking racist ass people.
I love this; especially the rooftop Korean bit. Baeeeewoooo hahahahahahahaha. EDIT: LOL! “What else… ohhh almost forgot!!!” and casually pulls out a T91 within reach ahhahahahaah. I actually built my own T91 with the proper traditional Chinese markings in the lower for my wife (she’s Taiwanese). All high schoolers there had to train with the rifle at least once a year, and many still have armories. Therefore, she was already familiar with everything about it, which shocked me as she proceeded to properly handle it and shoot the rifle accurately! Even my wife had some secrets up her sleeve! For a second, I thought I married a quad-lingual Taiwanese secret agent! haha! I love my wife. She’s so cool.
I’m a filipino that my parents house is across the street from California Market which is the location where the picture of the infamous roof top Koreans defended their grocery store and actually saw them at the time barricade the parking lot with upside down shopping carts.😅 Me and my now wife, then was my fiancé was there the first day the unrest happened to visit my parents only to see what was going on watching the news on several channels on tv. The original building was demolished and a new California market with a mall was built since then.
Thanks for celebrating our heritage of blasting objects past the sound barrier with reverence and enthusiasm no matter how basic or sophisticated it got. Really representing us AAPI brothers and sisters out there, Mr. Chan!
Interesting collection. I know your delivery is tongue-in-cheek, but the real pride in your heritage definitely comes through. The history shared between the West and The Far-East is not always comfortable but it's certainly important and worth remembering.
When I left CVSP in Blythe CA my fellow officers had me qualify them for Concealed Carry one last time on a Saturday to help fund my move home. One middle aged guy showed up hungover with a Type-54 and cleaned house on the young guns with their SIGS and H&Ks.
On this topic the podcast with Dave P. about Norinco and China exports was really good, hope you can talk to similar guests from/dealing with other Asian nations.
How about ditching the mask, I work in k town a lot, I still see people jogging with a mask on. I can’t take anyone with a mask on in their car seriously. What makes Korea Korea? Custom culture language. Well wearing a mask outside is not part of American customs, or culture. I also observe that some Koreans learn Spanish before English so they can hire cheap labor, that’s not our custom either and it’s adding to the problem on the boarder. I don’t fucking love it.
I am late to the party, but only because a friend told me to wait to watch this when I *really* needed a laugh... Man I'm glad I did, you've just made a bad day so much more tolerable with how funny this is Thank you!
The Daewoo has honestly been one of my dream guns since I saw it in this 80's cop show called "hunter" and had to look up what it was, now that I know it's a roof top classic i can't even begin to explain how badly I want it.
I had the opportunity to fire a very pristine Type 99. A friend's grand father brought back from WW 2. Looked like it was gently placed on the ground and never fired. Unfortunately we only had 20 rounds.
You covered South and East Asia. But what about more northern or western areas. India is certainly part of Asia. Russia is the single largest nation in Asia (by land area) but also overlaps into Europe, do they count? What about the Middle East, aren't they just west Asia? I think sequels are in order.
I get the feeling that Henry is a little pissed by the condescending tone of Asian American month, however battotai playing while some weibo crap is getting bayonetted made my day. Well played sir.
LOL thanks for this great video. If convenient, I would suggest making future videos about the Type 24 Chiang Kai-shek Rifle, Hanyang 88, Murata, Arisaka Type 30/38, T-65, SAR-21, Howa Type 64, Howa Type 89, Type 53 carbine (Chicom mosin nagant), etc. For example, an interesting video would be to compare the accuracies at 300 meters between Kar98k, Chiang Kai-shek Rifle, and Czech vz 24 since they are all shortened Mauser rifles with 600mm barrels.
I have wanted a K1/K2 for a while now. I love those East Asian NATO rifles. They also seem to be pretty damn rare (in the US) but also relatively affordable as well (when one pops up) which just tells me that they are undervalued right now. In this era of overvalued firearms there are still a ton of guns which I am fairly certain are undervalued relative to their many more commonly-owned counterparts. I just wish I had the money to splurge on them before it's too late.
I served in a company where the K-1A and K-2 were both used. At the level of non-logistics company, the main concern of using two types of guns (officially K-1A is an "SMG" but it shares the same ammunition and magazines with K-2) is during the field strip - you must not mix up certain very similar-looking (but critically different) parts when re-assemblying. Mixing firing pins is the most common but dangerous mistake - they are slightly different in their lengths, so it causes infinite autofiring if the longer firing pin is assembled into the shorter bolt carrier. But other than that, soldiers can experiment with compatibility of certain parts (though not recommended). Most popular example was mixing the upper and lower receivers of two guns.
I’m half Irish, half Dutch but full blooded gunny, and I have to say I enjoyed the hell out of this video, even though I was a year late. Missed out on all the cool cheap deals from the 90’s simply because the poors, the one exception being the true Chinese Hi-Point…a Norinco 213. That thing was truly wretched and the only gun I’ve ever owned that drew blood. But not with a bullet, no sir. That would have been too pedestrian. I gouged a 1/2” long furrow in the heel of my left palm trying to rack the slide against a lowered hammer and it’s notoriously powerful leaf spring. When that spring let go the extra tall rear sight drove through my hand with the aforementioned bloody results. Sold the damn thing shortly afterwards. Also, unlike the Norinco 1911 they apparently did NOT use cannon steel - per the manual, service life was only 2000 rounds. I think even Hi-Points are longer than that, unofficially at least.
Yeah, it’s kinda funny how the classic American obsession with .45 caliber came from having to deal with a bunch of raging Filipinos. The war itself is generally a footnote in public consciousness, yet the effects were far reaching. Well I suppose you would need more oomph against fanatical drugged up Moro warriors vs. unmotivated European conscripts that 9mm was designed for. lol
as a south korean(for real), good to hear k1a and k2 are considered as reliable rifle. but when I was in the army, many of K2 were just too 'old' so they pretended to be jam and break. also, is k1a civilian version called 'k1a1'? in korea, k1a1 is the codename of main battle tank. we call k1 rifle just 'k1a'.
Henry, I'm glad to know you even if it is just through the webs. You are a heck of an American. We can take any opportunity to honor you, including this AAPI month. Shoot, Josh is pretty cool too. I guess his month will have to wait. Love the broom handle.
My grandfather didn't care for that Type 99... he had a few reasons. He showed those reasons one of which was on his thigh and the other on his shoulder. I explained to him that it wasn't the gun's fault. He then looked at me very sternly, walked away, and went to get a beer. I didn't hear anything from him the rest of the night.

Arisakas are my favourite bolt action milsurp. I love my pre war Type 99 most of all! Ammo is super easy to handload. Just FL size 8x57 brass and top with a .310 - .312 bullet meant for .303/54R. You can also use .30'06 brass, just have to trim first
Nice, short, informative. Those Japanese Type 99s even have the chrysanthemum on them still. In the mid-late 1980s my dad had a Norinco SKS, complete with that foldout bayonet. That was a fun rifle to shoot. I recall my dad and his best friend both bought one each, and I still recall these massive tin cans with mountains of ammunition. Shot those things a lot.
Greetings from south central BC, thanks so much for the witty and informative video sir! As you know, we're quite a diverse ethnic blend here and honestly have been that for the last 150 years, so I appreciate the humor and historic perspective. Stay well.

You're missing the "American" part. It's Asian American month.
@@badcornflakes6374 Ok, American Estern European month. Better? 😀
Actually, week or day would be enough. We are accustomed to be lower grade citizens.
Nice video. I always enjoy your work - and this was was just fun. Your vein of irony and history-influenced humor are most appreciated.
Lol love the smooth delivery of the comedy
"what could go wrong".... this is pure gold.
Rifle immediately heads over to hang out with the Daewoo and Pindad instead "Nah, I'm gonna chill with these guys now"
"What could go wrong?" *sound of guns clattering*
Get me in for February and I’ll do black history month! This was great, we need to remember the heritages that make our country
You do realize he is satarizing identity politics don't you?
Sideways hi points...
as a south korean(for real), good to hear k1a and k2 are considered as reliable rifle. but when I was in the army, many of K2 were just too 'old' so they pretended to be jam and break. also, is k1a civilian version called 'k1a1'? in korea, k1a1 is the codename of main battle tank. we call k1 rifle just 'k1a'.
Love it! Glad you touched on the history.
Henry, I'm glad to know you even if it is just through the webs. You are a heck of an American. We can take any opportunity to honor you, including this AAPI month. Shoot, Josh is pretty cool too. I guess his month will have to wait. Love the broom handle.
captures the dynamic between countries very well. the salt, the sarcasm and the heritage
My grandfather didn't care for that Type 99... he had a few reasons. He showed those reasons one of which was on his thigh and the other on his shoulder. I explained to him that it wasn't the gun's fault. He then looked at me very sternly, walked away, and went to get a beer. I didn't hear anything from him the rest of the night.
That was great lol. History, overwhelming sarcasm, and guns
I suppose I need to get a T91 for my Taiwanese heritage
Edit: oh thank goodness you included one
I'm not Asian but I love my T65.
Chinese-American, born in ‘76, came to the good ol’ Red, White and Blue United States of America in 1985. Currently have Beretta M9, Beretta M9A3, Glock G48, Glock G19, FN FNX-45 Tac, Taurus TX-22, Springfield Mil-Spec, Henry AR-7 Survival, Smith&Wesson M&P-15 Sports II, Daniel Defense DD MK12, Daniel Defense DDM4V9, FN Military Grade M-16A4, Springfield Saint Victor AR-10, Kalashnikov USA KR-103 SFS and just recently plunked down 3K for a titanium gold plated Magnum Research Desert Eagle in .44 Mag. Ohh, I’m celebrating Asian-American month alright!
How I celebrate Asian heritage month. I buy a red polo shirt and pretend my AR is a Daewoo
I am Chinese (mostly) and I grew up in Chiaq around Chinatown. Then I moved to Indiana, a more freer state.
Why did you moved...law an order situation?
@@peekaboopeekaboo1165 better laws
@@Excalibur01 ...what laws ?
Should've had a Kirin or Chang beer instead of the Shiner lol
Edit: the 1911 being a Norinco and not a RIA Armscor is a twist
Singha
Mate, how about a San Mig or (very applicable here) Colt 45? Cheers. 🍻 'Murica 🇺🇸

Arisakas are my favourite bolt action milsurp.
I love my pre war Type 99 most of all!
Ammo is super easy to handload. Just FL size 8x57 brass and top with a .310 - .312 bullet meant for .303/54R.
You can also use .30'06 brass, just have to trim first
Nice collection you have Sir!😎
Could you please test out Chinese Type 81 rifle and Brandon's VSS rifle accuracy?
I'm heading out for Chinese food now..
Nice, short, informative. Those Japanese Type 99s even have the chrysanthemum on them still. In the mid-late 1980s my dad had a Norinco SKS, complete with that foldout bayonet. That was a fun rifle to shoot. I recall my dad and his best friend both bought one each, and I still recall these massive tin cans with mountains of ammunition. Shot those things a lot.
I could watch Henry drunk off his gourd and rambling on about guns and Asians all day
PS: SAR-21 and Ultimax for your consideration, good cousin.
My grandfather's were using the M1 in Vietnam.
This is the type of Heritage celebration the founding fathers intended.
Whoa epic I would have forgot I was Asian if Washington hadn't reminded me
Thank them for their service
Why do I get the feeling that wasn't his first beer 🤣
I am happy to share my May birthday with my asian friends.
Missing a Howa Type 89 because Japan too afraid to export! Sure they will export J-Pop and anime cat girls which are decidedly more dangerous
Brownells prolly should do a Type 89 clone. They are already halfway there.
aren't Howa made AR180 can be used as substitutes since type 89s are also inspired from the AR18?
I'm ABC (bi-racial)... I had no idea May was "Asian Heritage" month lmao!!! Thanks for the update!
you make me laugh with those refrences that work out like flash backs : )
Mad respect to the Roof top Koreans
Shiner FTW
Greetings from south central BC, thanks so much for the witty and informative video sir! As you know, we're quite a diverse ethnic blend here and honestly have been that for the last 150 years, so I appreciate the humor and historic perspective. Stay well.
You should do more jokes Henry - you've got quite the subtle sense of humour!
This guy is hilarious! Been through a lot of gun channels, how am I only finding out about this channel now. With 400k subs it’s not even small.
Welcome to the party, pal
