    Abner, if you want money flooding in the front door, offer one-on-one training classes. Half the day is working with the EDC AR platform of your customer, (mine is an 11.5"AR). Next, give me half day on correct response to an active shooter & trauma response. MANY MANY MANY people will pay you $1000 per day, (no I'm not joking), to learn first aid, fast deployment and mindset. You could charge $1000 per head and teach 3 people per session. Most of us will pay to come back year after year. Your experience matters. Your UA-cam channel is followed by people who can actually think for themselves. We will come to you. Give it some thought.

      We can see into the chamber and have ready access to it without having to roll the weapon over. Also we can run the AK-47 charging handle with our support hand without rolling the rifle over, and on an AR-15 we can reach over the top, also without having to take our shooting hand off the grip. Those are just some of the basic ways in which lefties dominate over righties.

      @keres993 Рік тому +4

      While a little dumb for most situations, super short barrels like this are still able to stabilize projectiles. Hollow points are still effective at lower velocities, especially if they're heavy for caliber. That's a far from useless package. Compared with other PDWs, it's still rather viable.

    • @Critical-Defense

      @@keres993 exactly! Everyone seems to think 5.56 comes in 55 grain surplus Lake City only and if the barrel length won’t perform as desired with that, then they say it’s useless. I don’t understand why expanding projectiles in 5.56 are such a wild concept 😂

  • @spoke1183
    @spoke1183 Рік тому +2

    I dont see any use for this unless your some sort of vehicle operator or clearing rooms all day. Better weapon platforms with short barrel out there that preform better for those tasks. And last thing anyone in their right mind would wanna do is clear rooms and engage in those fights. If you gotta fight distance and concealment is your best friend. I get sometimes you dont have a choice when a fight comes to you, still better to avoid it and have better gear than a 5.56 with a short barrel that dont preform ballistically in the ether of the worlds.

      I used to have a 7.5" 5.56 as my PDW/truck gun/travel gun, but I sold it and replaced it with a Sig Rattler in .300 BLK simply because I get to keep the very short platform but have the ballistic advantage of the .30 cal round.

    • @J.Young808
      @J.Young808 Рік тому +4

      Unless your SAM7K is in 5.56 I think the the 7.5” AR is better for a situation where one has to “hump it home” and with the use of AR’s 5.56 ammo will be much more available than 7.62x39.
      If you are well versed in your AK then use what you know. Abner knows his rifle from years of running them.

      .300 BLK is much better suited for a platform this short.
      That being said, I would have no qualms whatsoever picking up a 7.5" 5.56 if that was the only option available. For what it's worth, Noveske used to make a 7.5" SBR in 5.56 called "The Diplomat."
      If you look on their website nowadays, the Diplomat is now a 7.94" SBR in .300 BLK. The shortest offering available from them in 5.56 is 10.5".
      I'm guessing there's a reason for that...

    1:11 It's not a viable weapon if we're talking 5.56 or 7.62. It's worse than the alternatives in almost every aspect. 300blk makes sense from a barrel that short if it's suppressed, but a barrel that short for 5.56 isn't good for anything serious. A "get home gun" should have a light unless you're 100% sure you won't need it at night.

      It is, it's better than handguns, in terms of velocity, capacity, sights, versatility and addons, ammo and price, it will put down anything in 50 yards easily, plus getting the maneuvers on point because of the short barrel, the only bad thing is going to be the bark that comes out of it, but that goes even for 16 inches... you won't take this shortie to hunt deer or hogs, because is not the right tool for it... if I had to choose between my handgun or this 7.5 I'm choosing my 7.5...
