Hey man, can I borrow Dr. Charlie for absolutely no reason at all
I want to see this. Gotta make this happen.
DEW IT!

Arabella up there gonna make some executive outcums if you know what I'm saying.
Classic task force poaching.
This episode had me dying, bros. The space station. The ballistic gel fart. Charlie saying, “As a medical doctor, the problem starts right… here” (points at impact entrance.) 😂☠️

I woke up my dog with how hard I laughed at the ballistic gel fart. So unexpected
"Level 3 innocent farmer"
Dear God, Charlie is simply amazing
I lost it when he said that! a true treasure he is!
That must be all the Afghans the U.S. killed.
Don’t forget his parting dad advice. “………..and for all those stuck in a communist country like Canada or college, learn how to 3D print”
We said FARMER piercing, ATF.
GT: "A good curve is what you wanna have because it allows it to get into different parts of the body."
Dr Charlie: "I'm very curved as well."
I died with that line. Mike, your production values are through the roof with the banter (is it improv or scripted?) and timing of the edits. I loved your vids before, but now me love you long time!!
I’m surprised he didn’t say “to the left.” 😂😂😂
My hunch: the ATF deemed it armor piercing because the ammo was so cheap. The more they increase the cost of owning and shooting guns, the fewer people own and train with guns
Exactly.
Duh. The only reason anything from Russia being banned is to squeeze us tighter.
Yes, they may do stupid appearing stuff, but the ATF is far from stupid. Their intention is to limit our access to firearms, and they are good at doing just that. “It’s armor piercing. Therefore we must take it away.” Their next statement will be “9mm will blow your lungs completely out of your body, so we must ban it.”
I think you're spot on...
We should ice everyone even tangentially related to that organization.
How they're keeping poker face when Charlie comes up with some completely random sh**, I have no idea. We absolutely need Charlie in all future Dr.Garandthumb videos, his humor adds so much to these
We definitely need more Dr. Charlie!
I don't actually enjoy it but to each their own
imagine charlie was in rainbow, idiotically hits banger lines and spawn peeks
well he's kinda cringe but it's okay

"The ATF doesn't have any weapons experts, but they do have me".
Despite all the armor I'm wearing, that killed me!
"A lot of ATF agents have wives who have bulls."
"Studies have shown that 100% of ATF agents have wives who have boyfriends and this is consistent with previous dad advice."
I'm pleased to see that Garand Thumb is also venturing into becoming a news outlet, since this is actually factual and accurate reporting.
Agreed. CNN could make good use of their fact checking. 👍😂👍🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
rumour has it, atf shoot so many dogs because if their wives got one, they'd be obsolete
Studies also proven that the average AFT agent is that one kid back in the playground who bitch and cry when playing Tag. You're it. That kid constantly change the rules when he/she can't catch up with the other kids. He/she will lie to the custodian or any staff on the playground and get everybody in trouble.
Nope. ATF agents are just like everyone else and just doing a job. Why vilify them? Most of them are shooters just like you. I hate getting a parking ticket. Should I vilify the meter maids? No they are just doing here job. Don't like a law or regulation? Then simply work to get it changed and or go to court. - Now were you shooting a 7N6, 7N6M or 7N10 in the testing? I tend to agree that the 7N6 is not really an armor penetrating round as the core is just mild steal. It could be argued it is more eco-friendly hehe. However, the 7N6M and the 7N10 do have penetrators made of harder material. The devil is in the details as the 7N6M were being offered as the 7N6. Is the 7N6M an armor penetrator? That I don't know. I do know that the 7N10 was purposedly modified to help defeat armor.
@@edl653 i think there is some humor amidst this political commentary. I don't believe it has ever been about the targeting of individual employees.
However, your argument isnt completely solid either... As you could argue that soliders and agents in nazi Germany were also just doing a job. And to a great extent that is true.. albeit, in nazi Germany one would be labeled a traitor if one didnt work for the great cause.. however a public employee in the free world provably has a choice.
"I will never work for the A.T.F. and I'll do everything I can to disband them." Thanks Mike.. seriously.. gonna hold you to that one
@Robert Sears A hint of sarcasm? huh.. yeah it's ridiculous.. Hoping the NFA is going to be abolished after SCOTUS decision next week.. that would be neat!

I'm reminded of the old story about Nazi "spoon tip" rounds. Literally with an asymmetric scoop-shaped section out of the bullet, they were supposed to tumble on impact; and the gun shop sages had it that they were banned by the Geneva Convention. Ignoring the fact that it's actually the Hague Convention which covers small arms and ammo regulations, I always wondered how much truth there was behind that particular myth. It seems more likely to me they'd be simply discontinued due to what I imagine would've been awful accuracy, rather than _banned_ for their efficacy (cf. shotguns, flamethrowers, and all the other perpetual myths of this or that being banned for being "too brutal even for war").
Considering all the stupid bullshit the Nazi's did, and how absolutely useless most of it was(No, the Nazis did not have superior technology), I fully believe that the round exist, that it can barely hit anything, doesn't do what it's advertised to well, barely saw production run because they invented it in 1944 and any factories and materials that weren't destroyed already had to make conventional rounds, and that's why you've never seen it again
The damn Geneva convention, not letting me commit both warcrimes and crimes against humanity,
Can't use chemical gas, now this.
@@Yurik-the-marksman I miss my glass 12 gauge slugs😔
It's not a myth in a sense "there are no such bullets", it's just a ton of modern (and old as well) ammo behave like this. Soviet 5,45х39, whatever was used during Vietnam era by US, all those bullets deform and tumble like hell inside the body due to the fact that most of their mass is behind the point of contact, so it "drifts" like a car making a reckless turn. Plus there are expanding bullets which use post-hit deformation to inflict more damage as well, although they aren't exactly known for "tumbling" first and foremost.
Geneva convention couldn't have banned "Nazi spoon tip rounds" because no Geneva convention was held during the existence of Nazi Germany.. Nazis took power in 1933, started the war in 1939 and ceased to exist in 1945 after loosing the war they started. Geneva conventions closest to that timeframe been 1929 (before Nazis took power) and 1949 (after Nazis ceased to exist).. To be clear: when i say "ceased to exist" i'm referring to NSDAP original Nazis and not all those Neonazi / far right scumbags celebrating a comeback over here as well.. Greetings from Germany.

Its called the 'poison bullet' because people with seemingly minor or healing wounds, got sick and lost limbs or died, because they didn't understand that it left fragments in the wound.
what no? its just because of the gnarly wound cavity it would leave
@@kristian5632 no
It's from crappy field medicine common in 3rd world countries. Yes the fragmentation is part of it. But the thing also creates crazy wound channels (note plural) and couple that with the fragmentation & need to debride dead tissue it's not going to be a good outcome.
....... most gunshots end up with fragments being left in the wound, because the damage from surgery to retrieve them would be worse than just leaving the fragments.
I have something to tell you tho; the massive amount of heat that gets transferred to a bullet when it's fired out of the barrel, is more than enough to kill any viruses and bacteria that might have been on the projectile. So when you get hit with a bullet, it's completely sterile, assuming it wasn't a ricochet that hit some cow shit or something.
@@PotatoeJoe69 - when it goes through clothing it pulls fragments of textile into the wound.
I met Charlie one time, he was at a resturaunt, i couldnt decide if he was a serial killer or just really pissed his chicken nuggets took 20mins to cook. Anywho, Love to see him more in this series.

So do 100% of the agents...🤣🤣

We'd love to see the 5.56 shot at ballistic gel from 24", 20", 16", and shorter as well as .223. That would make a fun, informative video for the fans! Also, you could use the same ammo for all, then repeat the whole "experiment" for different 5.56/.223 ammos, this could be an ongoing series.

Also at some long range like 250-300m so the bullets loose some velocity
🤩That intro was EPIC! totally surprised me and I love it! So fun and throwback 👏🏆

Funny thing, I've talked a bit about russian army with my girlfriends uncle, who served there in like late 80s/ early 90s. And one thing he talked about was "Shifted centre of gravity rounds". He said they were pretty rare and rounds effect was described to me as "enters eye, exists butthole". I thought it was some kind of anecdote, but watching this video provided some context to his stories. Maybe he wasn't bullshiting after all.
Wtf lol
As long as it is not other way around its okey.

@@user-fy6du3nc7w displaced centre of gravity rounds do 100% exist they are not a legend at all, they have been used by various countries but are illegal to use, a terrorist group killed multiple people with them in Ukrainian in 2014

@@dylannix4289 to be fair... ATF agents do seem like the kind of people that get cucked by animals... explains the constant dog shooting tbh...
Charlie is that one guy that doesn’t say much but when he speaks you pay extra special attention to what he says. Sometimes it’s simpleton wisdom, sometimes it’s mind blowing wisdom, but it’s always wisdom.
nah, not really.
@TacSquirrel I listened very carfully to Doc Charley after I read your remark and I AGREE with ALL of it...except the wisdom part
Way to copy @gopanthr's comment but make it stupid
He's clearly inspired from Buster from Arrested Development, I think.
Yes...pay extra SPECIAL attention. Lots of specialness when Doc Charlie speaks.
I love how consistently inconsistent the 5.45 is and I wonder if it was designed to perform this way because all these strange ballistics would cause HORRIFIC wounds
The round that went fully vertical like 6 inches in is horrifying to think about.
I think one of the best things about a yawing bullet is that you can design an AP version without much effect on the lethality.
Yes it was designed to do that AFAIK, I have an AK shooter manual written by some old Spetznaz instructor and he wrote about the 5.45 ballistics and the horrifying wounds it caused in Afghanistan. Also, not totally relevant but apparently they would also boil their ammunition before trading it to the locals so that it wouldn't fire when the Mujahadeen eventually got it
Still not as horrifying as 5.56 which will explosively fragment in addition to yawing with significantly more energy that gets fully dispersed unlike 5.45 that stays together and exits. Idk why so many people attribute these nonsensical magical claims about Russian weapons haha. There's a reason the Russians haphazardly copied the 5.56 so quick, and made a less effective round in the process.
@@wooblydooblygod3857 Better to design a AP round like M855A1 which is excellent penetrator and still has horrifying fragmentation.
This is my favorite intro song youve had! Great video !!
Man, it broke my heart when they banned the 7n6. I just payed more for .22lr than I was paying for 7n6 before the ban. I am convinced that the intent was to dry up the supply of cheap, effective ammo.
It's pretty clear now
That's always the intent, and why the government always goes after cheap weapons and ammo. Gun control is rarely little more than normal people control in practice.
Yeah, that was the entire point. They tried to ban M855 6 months later and got so much backlash they revoked that ban. We'll never see 7n6 imported legally again though, well not without some very spicy politics.
@@jonwinfield9193 that was a bit of "adding insult to injury" that all the folks writing their Congresspersons to save the M855 didn't GAF about the much nicer 7n6.
Most likely.
This episode had me dying laughing and it is clear to see that Charlie is a lot more intelligent than most ATF agents. Remember you don't need a 100 magazine clip in your machine gun and a 9 mm bullet will blow your lung out your chest.

Out of my 11.5" AR pistol I got 7n6 hitting very close to same point of impact as at 25m and 300m. It's a great round in an outstanding caliber!
This is my favourite intro sequence for this channel. ❤
Funnily enough, 7N6 was never considered as an armor-piercing round. Rumor is it's utterly useless against body armor. Standard 7.62 (57-N-231) round had a lot more penetration than 7N6. This issue, however, was fixed in 7N10.
well it would be hell of a punch and broken ribs anyway
Yes. Since 1992, the standard cartridge has been 7n10. In 1994, he was replaced by 7n10m. 7n6 has not been produced for a long time, only Soviet stocks.
Your right and the BATF isnt...I BET as in I might be wrong and lose money, that 7N6 couldnt penetrate a soft pistol vest rated for .357.
@@whatsmolly5741 Yeah 7N6 is pretty dang anti-armor-piercing I hsve gobs of it..it WOULD penetrate a blade of grass and MAYBE a 2x4
The BATF made an ass of themselves saying 7n6 is AP I have a plate of armor that M855 WILL penetrate...but 7N6 will NOT...why does the BATF give M855 a pass but not 7N6?...M855 is armor piercing with a hardened penetrator...why is it legal?
Charlie usually has his facts slightly off, which is fine because we are all human. But I fact checked some of this stuff, and I can verify that, "Studies have shown that 100% of ATF agents have wives who have boyfriends and this is consistent with previous dad advice." - is 100% backed by science. Good Job Charlie and congrats on becoming a doctor.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 9mm freaken blows the lungs out of your chest cavity init fame? Not gonna lie but you got me good there mate!
Yes… it blows the lungs out of the body
the core is not hardened. 7n6 has a hardened core, but it not ap yet. 7n22 (with black head) is solid, hardened and twice i saw it coming clean trough both front and back plates (dude survived, but it was rough). I cannot tell you anything about category of plates, as this was supplied by the volunteers (who buy everything everywhere, where it can be purchased) and mine for example was of another manyfacturer, purchased by different person.
It's soft steel that was used because it was cheap. You can find other calibers with rounds constructed this way.
@@jameshawkins8817 a lot of ppl just don't get that ussr was aiming for a total war, so they did everything to make things work on the cheap way)))
some stuff was genious, but most just aimed to be produced at the highest quantities by the least skillest people.
that's why two AK-74 you disassemble (i did, i know) would have so high tolerances and even different coloration, that you can see on some parts, that they come from different plants, made on different equipment, out of sligtly different metal. but it shoots, which is better than nothing
in fact in my hometown we had a factory, that produced umbrellas (as well as huge variety of other things, including one of the first soviet calculators) and they had this emergency plan of how they will in less than 7 days switch to weapon production as ak can be made even at home if you have the proper pair of hands and tools

So not only are you getting gut shot, but the round is more than likely going to find it's way into your vitals as well. If you're not wearing armor you're double fucked against this round.

This episode has made my top 3 FAVORITE Garand Thumb videos!!! The smoothness and edits of you and Charlie is Hollywood level.. I laughed, I cried, I learned something new... Thank you Dr Garand Thumb, I am forever grateful of your decision to drop out of Medical school.... and of course thanks to Charlie for not getting thrown in a group home for the challenged...
Every video i watch, i'm not entirely sure what the hell i'm watching... And i love it.
I was always told that either Remington or Winchester was the main people that went to the ATF to get the 7n6 banned because it was so cheap it was cutting into their ammo sales. I’m mean you could even buy AR uppers chambered in 5.45 because it was so cheap. 😢
Fucking love me a 5.45 mutant.
@@alexisXcore93 I remember seeing smith and Wesson M&P AR chambered in 5.45 and thought that would be fun. I opted for the saiga 74 because it was like 600 cheaper at the time. Now the roles have reversed, the days of $300 AK’s are long gone.
@@streamfisher7472 my buddy’s first AR was a M&P in 5.45.
@@cdclpc Sweet, I hope 5.45 keeps being imported by some other countries because it is a really fun soft shooting caliber.
That wouldn't surprise me. It obviously was not banned because it was an actual armor piercing round and they were worried about that.
Seems like "follow the money" can be pretty good advice many times.
Love the sound track!
This whole video was hilarious 😂😭🤣 you guys are great together.. It's really CHARLIE FOR ME ‼️
The shop I was working in in early '00s wound with a pallet of this because the owner's son didn't know the difference between 47 & 74 ammo. When it came in, the owner went absolutely bat crap crazy on his son. We wound up moving the pallet from our main store to the range/store and selling it for $75 per *crate*.
I look back and wish I'd bought the whole pallet.
I wish I had a pallet of the stuff. I have 5 and a half guns that shoot it (5.45x39 AR upper) and 20K+ rounds won't last forever.
Wait people say bat crap crazy? I thought it was a translation error in an anime. Either way you are wrong it is bat shit insane.
I really like the "science" episodes. Happy Father's Day to all the other dad's out there.
And you as well sir.
Dr. Charlie has some very wise words in this video
Just watched some Slow Mo guys and cant stop but smurk at the "We have a fast camera here, shooting 1,600FPS" when i just watched 1.75million FPS of lightning.
Anyway good video as always
Sadly, my viper's were sacrificed to the river last weekend. The wendigos left us in peace thanks to a cooler full of bang's and chicken tenders. Awesome content. Charlie, never change.
It's the air pocket in the nose of the round that makes it YAW like a mofo. As soon as the 7n6 bullet strikes an object more dense than air that airpocket in the nose changes the center of gravity for the bullet. This is what causes the tremendous destabilization and yawning on impact.
Coming back to this video months after first watching it. I love the dad advice since I recently discovered the 3d2a scene
Charlie is now my favorite part of watching Garand Thumb videos.
Excuse me. Doctor Charlie.
When the 5.45x39 7n6 was developed we were using the 55 gr 5.56, not the M-855 62 gr. We started using that in 1982 along with the M-16 A2.
8:23 The light being generated by the cavitation in the ballistic gel is always nice to see. Lets you know that so much energy is being imparted into it, that the damage would continue just from the flesh collapsing in on itself long after the round is gone.
it has nothing to do with cavitation
@@clapper3530 It looked like sonoluminescence for a second there.
Wouldn't it sort of cauterize the wound? Probably not enough heat for that
@@clapper3530 It absolutely does have to do with cavitation. The sonoluminescence is a dead giveaway to that.
@@clapper3530 actually it does.
Kind of like how depth charges work, the sudden expansion of the gel creates a bubble. When it collapses, both exits seal first so the gasses are trapped inside. Then, the gel forces the the gasses into a smaller space, increasing the pressure.
It gets to a point where it's essentially an explosion caused by the sudden jump in pressure causing a form of combustion.
So yes.
Cavitation is literally the cause of it.
