    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!

    I just realized something.
    The reason why the AK-50 is taking so long is because in true Soviet fashion it will be adopted in 2050 hence AK-50 just like how the AK-74 was adopted in 1974. His deadline is 30 years from now.

    I've carried my 1911 for over thirty five years so I guess it's relevant to me. Never had misfeeds with quality ammo. 230 grain hollowpoints are guaranteed to turn a head into a canoe. Polish your feed ramp and do a few other little tweaks and it's just as reliable as any other sidearm on patrol. Proper maintenance is the key. Yeah, it's heavy as fuck but I prefer the weight. Besides in a pinch and out of ammo you can beat an opponent to death with it. Your mileage may vary.

      The BHP is a great gun but ultimately a mixed bag. It's action is better than 1911's as there is not a barrel link.
      it's lockup is were the gun runs into trouble, since the transfer bar is slide mounted it eliminates any real trigger work being done to it.
      BHP has generally pretty gritty triggers as well. They have a magazine disconnect a problem searching for a solution.
      Some of the more classic HP's their sights suck. The safety is mushy and does not very affirmatively click into place like a 1911, on top of that its safety lever is very small. Reloading them fast can be a chore since its a big square magazine with a mag well without flaring in addition to the disconnect.
      Honestly the 1911 has the aftermarket for a reason, and it's not just because "Muh 45" it's objectively a more ergonomic handgun,
      and there is not a pistol that outdoes a 1911 like a 1911. But there is pistols do what BHP does better like the CZ-75.

    Hey there Brandon. I currently own a Taurus PT1911 that I absolutely fell in love with. I've shot pistols for awhile and I never understood the fascination with the 1911 so I decided to go and take a chance and purchased mine brand new for just under $600.00 and put a few boxes of ammo thru it. I can tell you it shoots plenty straight. I've got the full sized 1911 with the 5inch barrel. The recoil isn't too bad with the longer barrel and I've even fired it one handed with no real difficulty. Of all the fire arms I currently own, if I ever had to get rid of my pistols then my 1911 would be the one that I would hold onto. It's a great pistol that didn't break the bank.

Since the series 80 1911 there have not been but a small handful of design changes to the modern pistol. aesthetics. cheaper materials, cheaper manufacturing sure. But the designs of the gun are all damn near identical. tipping barrel actions. Same reason rifle technology hit a big ole brick wall with the AR. There really isnt any place to go. Once you understand human kinematics ballistics and chemistry you understand internal combustion firearms are very limited. There is no great progress to be made.

    I love my .45 simply because I know it works. I hated the M9 in the Army, utterly loathed the Beretta design, so I admit being biased against 9mm. Maybe someday I'll find a 9mm pistol I actually like, but until then, I'll stick with my trusty .45.

They want his M4 or Police carry L-frame, then there's me in the corner satisfied that I get the Hi-Power that helped him find his way out of the jungles of Vietnam after his platoon was wiped out in a Heli crash. "A bully gun for the man who refused to die" is on the case he keeps it in, the words of the medics that found him two weeks later, 15 miles from the crash site.

Because a .223 Remington/5.56x45 NATO is much smaller in diameter, or caliber, than a .45 ACP, but is much more powerful than it or a 9x19 NATO/9mm Luger/9mm Parabellum.

      @@putin632 Nope, it's the opposite. Most combat pistols use calibers that are wider than most combat rifle calibers, but at much lower muzzle velocities. A rifle bullet's enhanced ability to kill comes from having high enough velocities for the hydrostatic shockwaves to cause permanent organ damage, whereas with slower pistol bullets, there is only organ damage in the direct path of the slug.

    Hey Brandon ...
    08:06 try a Peters Stahl RangeMaster 1911. Those are Made in Germany with German perfection, (lots’n lots of love), and they will give you ultimate performance. Plus they look really awesome. Okay, they cost like 3000$, but they‘re worth it. And ... yeah... they are still single stacked. That’s why I looked around in 🇨🇦 and found me a nice Para Ordnance 14.45. A cute little 6“-1911 in .45ACP with a forged 2-chamber compensator, no grip safety (optional), tons of Wilson Combat accessories, and with 14 bulky buddies in the mag, who will ALWAYS run faster than the home intruder you release them on.
    ... and as always:
    Greetings from Good old 🇩🇪 ... home of the heavenly gun laws.

    First of all, the feeding ramp is polished to a mirror sheen. It's not going to have any feeding problems. The slide's been replaced with a reinforced version, and it meshes perfectly with the frame. The frame itself has been iron-welded and scraped down multiple times for maximum precision. The front strap part of the frame has been checkered to make it dig into the hand. That prevents any slipping. The sight system's original too. It's a 3-dot type. It's got an enlarged front sight, giving it superior target sighting capability. The regular hammer's been replaced with a ring hammer. That enhances the cocking control and increases the hammer-down speed. They also reworked the grip safety to accommodate the ring hammer. It looks like they eliminated it altogether. This is a tool for pros. The thumb safety and slide stop are extended for precise handling. The base of the trigger guard is whittled down so you can use a high grip, and the trigger itself is a long type for easy finger access. The trigger pull is about 3.5 pounds. that's about a pound and a half lighter than normal. The magazine well has been widened to make it easier to put in a new magazine. The magazine catch button has been filed down low to make it harder to hit it by mistake. The mainspring housing has been changed to a flat type to increase grip, and it's even been fitted with stepping so that it won't slip from the recoil when firing. On top of that, they added cocking serrations to the top part of the slide. That lets you load and eject cartridges faster in an emergency. Whoever did this is a professional, no question. This thing could shoot a one-hole at 25 yards in a machine rest
