About Me
My name is Brandon Herrera. I'm the owner and operator of The AK Guy Inc, a 07 Firearm Manufacturer based out of Fayetteville, NC. I also co-own Stark Media Group, and designed the rifle known as the AK-50.
I've started to dedicate this UA-cam channel above all to have fun, but also as a way to document my entrepreneurial journey for the next few years as I try to grow my companies. Hopefully, people can learn from my example, successes, and failures.
Either way, I'm having a lot of fun with it so far, and I hope it's just as fun to follow along!

Yoo Brandon
Somewhere in an alternate universe, Brandon's channel is all obsessed with the AR.
Real talk, if I didn't live in a shithole country, I'd be out there trying to get as many of the weird post-Vietnam prototypes of the AR-15 I could, those things are great fun to research.
I might report this. This is obscene, and disgusting. Down right abhorrent.
The Ar Guy?
I dont know, AK daddy sounds badass, AR daddy somehow sounds incestuous.
That's a scary timeline
"So, we're making a film, could you make us some replica prototypes for us to use?"
"Nyet, you use actual prototypes. Much better"
NO REAL PROTOTYPES were used. The guns you see in the movie are replicas made from scratch by a custom shop in Moscow. They did a great job, in my opinion.
It’s like October Skies! But… More… Russian…..

I was born in city of Izhevsk and saw Mikhail Timofeyevich. He was walking down Pushkinskaya street (main street of Izhevsk) with younger lady (i assume his daughter) and huge dude in a black suit(bodyguard i guess). I was a little kid and was going to visit one of my buddies so when they passed me by i was just standing looking at them. Now i realize it was one of the most memorable moments of my life, Legend and one of the most remarkable people of Soviet Era walked few feet away from me.
How did you know it was him? Did most Soviet citizens knew what he looked like or something?
@@clamum I am not sure about all Soviet citizens but when I was a kid I saw him on local tv channels almost every week (I even remember one particular tv show where he criticized m16))) Izhevsk is not a huge city and when you have a celebrity of his caliber living in a relatively small town everyone knows him.
@@timkey87 Very cool man! Thanks for sharing.
@@clamum Yes. The Soviet educational program meant the study of EVERYTHING. From writing music to building a house. From childhood, they were taken to local factories / enterprises / construction sites. They were taken to military exercises. Even today, military exercises are being held in Russian schools, in which even girls take part. Any Russian girl can disassemble / assemble an AK. Do you think these people might not know one of the most popular designers of the USSR?
Yo that's fucking cool

Well when you consider the butterfly effect, it’s possible the entire world would have been a very different place had this rifle not been invented.
Some random dude : Owns an original Type-1 and some original spare parts
Brandon Herrera : Let's talk
As you open a dusty old box you have that was your grandfathers you see what looks to be a parts kit for a type-1.
A minute later you hear a subwoofer and as it slowly gets louder your attic you are in starts to shake you think man is this a earth quake?
As the subwoofer gives way to hard base you realize its soon it’s coming from the walls as the noise gets louder
suddenly you see a man wearing a black tight tee shirt, blue jeans, combat boots and a pair of aviators phase though your wall as the hard base subsided he takes off his glasses takes a deep breath through his nostrils and says “is that a type one behind you?”
He looks past you to the dusty parts kit. “Lets talk pal.” A second goes by and he puts his glasses back on “I think you pissed your self so ill be in the living room queueing up some red dawn while you change your pants. Oh, and bring that parts kit when you come down.” As he leaves your attic.
As they submerged the weapon in water, all I could think of was that they were baptizing it to please the machine spirit.
Praise the omnisiah
Praise the machine spirit.
Rise rifle you are now slav and now to the fields of war and defeat our enemies and make them want you for themselves.
When they pulled the gun out of the water, the water was turned into vodka
Nah, I had flashbacks to InRange mud tests and the MAC gauntlet.
The flesh is weak, praise the Omnissiah.
8:15 that is actually a hold over from older manufacturing processes where if you had a 3' barrel like on a Lebel rifle or a Mauser 1893 and you had a defect you could still use the barrel as a pistol or revolver barrel instead of for a rifle. This was also the norm in Czarist Russia with the Three Line Rifle, the Mosin Nagant, and the Nagant 1895 revolver. Three line in the old Russian measurement comes out to 7.62mm
Brandon: “this kids building a sub machine gun that’s gonna change the war”
*it didn’t change the war, it changed the world*
it will be used in ww3 big time
Suprisingly the way they've made the movie it sounds similar to inventor of Owen SMG. It might not have chnaged the war, heck, might not have changed it much even for Australia, but it gave people hope.
Interestingly enough or maybe weirdly, Fedorov isn't in the movie. And he was the one leading the avtomat competition and group of designers that created the round. It's like as if you've cut awat Von Braun out of Autumn Sky. Even if fictional, Fedorov and Kalashnokov should have met. Simonov, Shpagin, Degtyarev. They all started under or consulted him in 1920's.
Funny how it was a copy of Suomi KP-31.
In other words Finns changed the world
@@evs251 sometimes I wonder why humanity even exists... today is one of those days...
@@evs251 and later on the Finns made their own AK 47 with the Valmet RK62. and then the Israelis would make their own Valmet RK62 with the Galil
They say that the only time Eugene Stoner smiled was when he met Kalashnikov.
Apparently Stoner and Kalashnikov had great respect for each other and admired each other’s designs as well.
@@hawk66100 that’s what truly means to be a good human being.

Your rifle is cool man.

Bro, that's like a living Wojak meme.
American gun guy: Noooo, you can't just use weapons from communist countries!
Russian gun guy: Noooo, that's a weapon made by capitalist pigs!
Kalashnikov and Stoner: Bro, your gun is badass.
@@hawk66100 Kalashnikov thought the selection of a .22 caliber cartridge was brilliant, Stoner thought Kalashnikov's stout 30 round magazine was brilliant.
@@DonMeaker Did you mean .223 that became 5.56 NATO? Because I don’t know .22 AR-15s apart from conversion kits.
Everyone look so fresh, clean cut, and earnest I half expect them to break out a dance number like a Disney musical.
Outside of combat it was obligatory for soldiers to be clean-cut, wear clean uniforms and shine their boots, according to the Army Statute, otherwise they could get reprimanded. Only officers in the Soviet army were allowed mustaches, and navy officers were the only ones who were allowed beards. So, Hollywood often gets it wrong showing teh ebil Soviet soldiers with beards.
Hearing about these stories is always great. As an Australian, I enjoy the story of Wardell and Kunzler working hard to try and get the SMG originally developed by an NSW kid named Owen to be accepted by the very obstinant and uncooperative Defence force. But by god with their persistence and their clever use of media, they got the government to tell the DF to put it to the test and it won against the MP38, the Thompson, and the Sten.
And it was used right through the Vietnam war...
Australia is famous for not upgrading weapons if they can still shoot..
All the maddest lads come from NSW 😎
Would love a movie on the Owen gun story but I doubt they would make an accurate one these days..
Supposedly he retied to a farm after the war but still designed and made some rifles but I have never been able to find any design docs or photos of his rifles..
The sound of an AK being field stripped is so distinct in that opening. Badass.
Not going to lie, you’re pretty much the reason I got my first AK rifle.

I have seen his first prototypes in St. Petersburg military museum. One of the biggest military museums in the world. There is one exposition dedicated to Kalashnikov. Definitely worth the visit, recommend to everyone.
Basically, they built the AK in a train depot steam shop. Thomas the dank engine intensifies.
The movie is just like most movies, complete and utter BS.
Thomas The Dank Engine 😂 I need that on a shirt
Where have you been the past decade, Thomas the Dank Engine has been a meme for years already.
No, Kalashnikov build his first SMG train depot steam shop. After that he developed another SMG, a light machine gun, two semi-automatic carbines, did some other work and only then he developed AK 47.

I was a chief technical advisor of this movie. Unfortunately, creators ignored my advice, so I am not a big fan of the final result. I wouldn't take this movie as a good representation of his story, Kalashnikov's real life was much more thrilling and incredible.
NO REAL PROTOTYPES were used. The guns you see in the movie are replicas made from scratch by a custom shop in Moscow. They did a great job, in my opinion.
My good friend Konstantin Podgornov drawn all the blueprints for the movie, but the creators messed it up and used blueprints for Type 3, while they had a perfect set of blueprints available. Shame.
Type 1 in the movie is not a good representation of the first batch, it has a wrong muzzle device and charging handle. Again, the real deal was available, I personally picked the best available rifle, but it never made it to the movie.
Same for the final scene, they had enough type 1s to put them in the front row, but nobody cared.
If you want to talk about the real story, we can do that eventually.
Well, as expected, the director pulled the old "I'm an artist, I see it like that" card. It's shame when the moviemakers ignore the advice of people far more competent on the topic.
Thanks for your work nonetheless.
@@avtomaticeskijrazdatcikgus2713 thanks. The only real achievement I've made was inclusion of Lytii in the story.
What a shame that the creators weren't listening to you. It could be a much better movie - instead, we got a fairy tale where we didn't see any real development of the actual AK.
I would love to hear the story from you with more details. Perhaps some collaboration with Ian McCollum? :)
@@BloPsy__ Thank you! Perhaps

I’m waiting for the next gun designer movie “Kel-Tec: Smoking Crack is a hell of a drug”
Parmesan cheese: just as good
Soundtrack by Tech N9ne
Let's start a go fund me
This has to happen
High Point: The untold true story.
I was very sad to hear that Sudayev died in 1946. Probably just days after he talked with Kalashnikov for the last time and advised him to "make it simple". 😯
Indeed as from one designer to the other:
Sudayev passed the torch to Kalashnikov as if to say:
Its up you now,make us proud.
I've never shot an AK before, but I've always loved the design of it.
Simple but absolutely beautiful and durable!
as a student I went to Izhevsk - the city, where Mikhail Timofeevich was living and working - to take part in the first international student olympics on applied mechanics. we had an tour to the museum, but most important - at the official opening ceremony Kalashnikov gave a speech and then each team had a picture with him. so that's how I had a great honor to shake his hand
In reality Kalashnikov was working in a group of experienced engineers, who first were sharing their experience and then helping him to master the rifle to the satisfactory level, because first prototypes had problems and were quite expensive and difficult to manufacture.
I didn't watch the movie myself though... but this doubling with English voices is horrible XD
and weird that in the country of origin and with the help of the Kalashnikov company they didn't find any AK looking like the first ones.
and true fact that failed Mosin barrels were used for Tokarev pistols if some part of the barrel was still good
Hello slavic brother, that's a cool story. And yeah, the dubbing is garbage. I'd rather watch it with subtitles and hear original russian voices
I only under stand Russian can't speak hope I can one day
What a cool story, I bet that was an amazing experience!
Not to mention that Kalashnikov didn’t actually do anythin
Hugo Schmeisser was the inventor who was at that time working as German prisoner in Izhevska design office. Kalashnikov was planted next to Hugo to take his design. Hugo Schmeisser come from family with long tradition of making weapons and Kalashnikov had zero understanding of strength of materials. Besides AK, what has Kalashnikov invented since AK? Nothing! Nothing because Hugo was allowed to go back to Germany!
Idiots believe that someone without understanding of strength of materials could design AK is similar to believing that someone without knowledge of jet propulsion could design space shuttle.😂

@@eduardoalbornoz2718 Nope. It's true. I wanted to write these facts, but first I looked if someone has done it or not. At the time lots of russian infantry equipment was developed by the idea that can be manufactured in non military factories if needed. The PPSh is a good example for this. If you need tons of guns under a war you need to improvise how can it be possible. And not only Russia came out with such solutions in hard times.
Wait, so Kalish got him a girl that could help design guns too?! That dude won at life.
he didnt know proper technical drawing so they asigned him someone that could translate his drafts into proper drawings. He was luky to encounter such a beautifull work companion that really helped him, if were a man they would have been friends for the rest of their lives.

I think a cool series would be how to identify different species of AK. You’ve kind of done it in some previous videos, but a dedicated series on defining features of each varietal would be super cool.
Yes please I need this. I know some things, like how to identify a type 56 Chinese AK, but not nearly enough.
Forgotten Weapons has a video on every tipe
After watching the movie. I know have a deeper appreciation for the sacrifice and effort put in by Kalashnikov to bring the world one of the most reliable weapon systems on the planet. I always wanted an AK rifle and now I proudly own one. Cheers!

Hi Brandon, I was lucky enough to have met Gen. Kalashnikov a number of years ago in the UAE at a military arms expo. He and his interpreter had lunch with our small group. He did say something to the effect that he wished he had a Ruble for every AK produced. I was aware of his historical significance when we met. He was a nice old gentleman.

It is really interesting that Eugene Stoner was rich due to his invention of the AR platform, however he is hardly known. On the flip side, you have Mikhail Kalashnikov, well known for his invention, but never became rich. #akgnotificationsquad

@@hansgruber9685 I've met many that do not know Stoner, but few that don't recognize Kalashnikov. Even fewer know Sullivan and Fremont, yet they are the ones responsible for the AR10 becoming the AR15.
Mikhail was doing very well by Russian standard, he received a massive "Stalin's award" that was a very significant sum of money, he got his promotions, medals and other benefits during his carrier.
So basically Stoner got way less in comparison. As you probably should remember USSR was a socialist country and even it's leaders had less personal riches than a mediocre US millioner (not even speaking about billioners)

I wish someone would make a movie about the M1 Garand I would buy that in a heart beat.
I've got Kalashnikov's autobiography, and it's easily become my favorite book. Not only is the man's story inspiring (from son of a Kulak deported to Siberia to Russia's foremost and most famous gun designer), he was a genuinely good man and a patriot. There's much to respect and admire about the guy.
Kalashnikov was a great gunsmith/inventor. But do you not think Kalashnikov will self-glorify himself in his own autobiography. Imagen you are a great gunsmith/inventor and have access to a StG 44, and you did not get the smallest insperation or idea from that gun, becuse you already parallell inventnted all the consepts in advance, before you did know about the StG 44. How likely is that?
@@kirgan1000 there were ideas of building automatic guns under intermediate cartridge in the USSR way before Soviet troops layed their hands on the first trophy StG-44, plus you should remember that Fedorov's Avtomat was produced since WWI in Russia (and Fedorov continued his work during Soviet period, upgrading his gun and teaching upcoming generation of Soviet gun designers). And for fuck's sake, just watch what's inside the goddamn StG-44 and AK and compare it. The two systems are different
@@kirgan1000 People that even suggest AK is in any way related to StG 44 are automatically labelled as clueless and full of shit.
@@Alen725 Did you read what I did write, I did say IDEA and INSPERATION. For example the consept and form factor is the same.
A Samsung Galaxy phone is not a Apple Iphone, its have a differently hardware and sofware. But do not tell me that the Iphone was not the insperation.
Do you realy think Kalashnikov parallell inventnted ALL the consept? like the "stamped gun"
@@kirgan1000 No, concept and form factor isnt the same. Also its confirmed that M1 Garand was inspiration for AK, nothing was inspired by StG 44 and I dont even know from where you got that dumb idea. Your example is stupid in this case, its so extremely dumb that I dont know where to start. Iphone was not first touch screen smartphone released and no, galaxy was not inspired by iphone, its not visible in design. Many firearms did exist so why you even think that out of thousands of firearms StG 44 was inspiration? No arguments outside of your full of shit trashtalk.

I m, like you, not certain that the part of the series showing how mister Kalashnikov find help from his comrades is true, but it can be because i ve seen incredible things during war here, in Croatia: people spontaneous building armored vehicles, mortars, guns, grenades in their backyards or in factories. I have a neighbor and friend, that build hand guns that fire hunting cal 410 and others guns during the war, they all actually worked. Thank you again for your work, keep going, we are here, beside you comrade Herrera.
well, welcome to croatia brother, if I may ask where are you from originally?
@@lambsauce5312 Hello bro, i m half french-half croatian. I haven t learn croatian in school so i can only speak the dialect "kajkavski" like is speaken in varaždin or in Čakovec. Tako da možemo i na hrvatskom, brate.

For the record, Alexey Sudayev's last name is spelt Судаев in his native Russian. The combination "ae" forms a sound similar to the English pronunciation of "eye." Therefore, his name would be pronounced Soo-Die-Ev, with emphasis on the D sound.
Cant wait to see this movie. Love your content as always, brother.
We desperately need the john browning movie or a review of tomorrow when the world ends aka Australian red dawn
same and make the very end him designing the hi-power
And have a scene where he says the 1911 was just a side project for senior citizens, and the hi power was his actual pistol design.
Why do people hate and talk shit about a 1911, fuck man, I wish people would stop talking shit about influential firearms
@@jared.p240 Because it's a joke. And the more people get offended the funnier it is.
@@ChucksSEADnDEAD I know it's a joke but I just want to know why
I am a simple man. I see Father Kalash, I click.
Happy 1 million, Brandon. Look forward to the next million.

Really enjoyed the "30 caliber" moment.
In 70 years, some random dude in UA-cam is going to be reviewing a movie about the AK-50 and remarking on the designers “luscious mane” and strikingly good taste in beverages.
And memes.

Жалко что фильм говённым вышел
I just finished watching this movie because of your uploaded video here. It was awesome movie. I’m finding myself more then fascinated with the AK platform.
Can't wait for the Firearms Cinematic Universe to come to full fruition!
Поздравляю с миллионом подписчиков! Отличное видео, отличный контент, товарищ Херрера)
Gratz on one mil subs! What a wonderful way to pay respects to the man who created it all.
Seeing your passion and love of this weapon is inspiring. I would have loved to been there when you first watched this movie. It had to be great.
No one:
Me takes 20 minute break at work to watch a AKG Video
Was really wondering you’d seen this movie
"Ugh fine, I guess this movie is my little pog champ. Come here!"
I watched this when it first came out and I loved the fuck out of it. And I was an AR guy at the time. LOL let me just say that I kinda became an AK guy from watching you but this movie is kinda what pushed me fully into the AK camp. And I don’t regret any of it.
That does it, I'm making a movie called "Stoner and Sullivan: M16". Hey Gun Jesus, you in?
Or just call it "Stoner" that will bring in a really big and confused crowd.
@@williamt.sherman9841 Haha, you don't think some folks would be disappointed?
@@nimbly1693 have the front of the movie cover have Gun Jesus, Eugene stoner (with his old look- with geek glasses) with the outline of an AR-15 in the back round with the the words "Stoner" in big letters. Market it as a pothead buddy comedy like Harold and Cumar go to White Castle- only instead its a bio-pick with flash forwards to Ian shooting in competitions.
@@nimbly1693 Everything's fascinating when you're high
That'll be one helluva movie and I can bet the background scores will be rad too. Fortunate Son, Purple Haze, Voodoo Child, damn it'll be a blockbuster.
Tell me you’re a Brandon fan without saying you’re a Brandon fan

I drink White Claw for no good reason. 😂
