Jerry has probably fired more guns and ammo then everyone else and looks like a kid firing his first shots
The enthusiasm lol
It really is a fun gun
Yeah Bee isn’t it awesome!! Haha
Nylon 66 will do that to you. I've taken I don't know how many squirrels and rabbits with one :).
That is big part of his charm. He has enthusiasm, skills, plus he comes across as the cool uncle you like to tag along with when you were a kid, at least he does to me.
Imagine breaking into his house and hearing the beep of the timer
At least you know it's gonna be quick
You copied that from a different comment in another one of his video
Lmao!
LOL!!!
QuickSc0pe98 and annother one copied it from me haha
jerry: i dont know if i can see these sights anymore
*proceeds to put all the rounds on the same spot*
jerry: ohh, it wants to play
😂😂😂😂😂
❤😂
That intro... Who needs a bumpstock when you're Jerry Miculek xD
I thought the exact same thing. His rate of semi-auto fire can’t be too far off from the bump stock rate
They actually used him in the presentation when advocating to ban them, they 'forgot' to mention that he wasn't using one
Im sure his pointer fingers are under the atf ban lol
There’s a UA-cam video of him versus the bumpstock
that is the same technique I use to shoot my semi auto guns fast haha u just bounce your finger around as fast as you can back and fourth and it runs faster than any bump stock haha
My son got a nylon 66 from his great grandpa, they feel like an air riffle, real light!
A buddy of mine had one. It felt flimsy.
@Fredc Killian called zytel-101
I owned an Apache nylon 66 when I was a kid very accurate rifle a beauty also chrome steel with a black nylon stock with white diamond inlays in the stock
Sooo yall sons getting guns while ive never touched 1
@@elund408 And the 66th attempt at the formula hence the name Nylon 66.
We'd load like 25 in the tube and jam the follower against our stomachs while pulling the trigger until you could close it.
American AF.
emilio kowalski same here
Hmm
Original high cap...
@@Shep01 who needs a magazine when you gotta butt tube 😂😂😂
That's awesome, it's like your a kid again... The beauty of sport shooting and memories a
We're all kids at heart, we just get more responsibilities thrust upon our shoulders.
Jerry I bought my nylon 66 in 1967, just a young boy cutting grass in my neighborhood.I I
Used this Rifle shooting big bull frogs in the farm ponds at home.What the life and I still have mine too. Perfict
Rifle runs great
That’s awesome that you still have that. Looks like a lot of fun!
Yoo hey Scott I love your vids
The man says he's getting old and can't see the sight. But still goes out and sets records on a regular basis. Damn impressive.
Seeing Jerry's eyes light up after he puts some shots on target is heartwarming. You can tell he has had some great times with that gun.
Thumbs up if you ever loaded it too full and just shot with the tube held to your shoulder until you could lock it in.
CCW1911 I had the Mohawk brown also. .22’s filled up to the end and rod in but would not go all the way. Pushed the rod against my left shoulder locked my right index finger and went to town fast as I could. FUN! 👍🇺🇸
Absolutely did this. Actually thought everyone did, this isn’t/wasn’t a thing!?!
Damn Americans
Actually Canadian, but I accept the compliment. 😊
@@john-paulsilke893 We never thought of it... Wish we would have, LOL.
I have an apache 77, every time I bring it to the range an old guy tries to buy it. 😁
Watching Jerry shoot his first gun is like watching my daughter on Christmas morning. I love this guy.
Jerry is the only person in the world whom I believe when they give a reason for missing a target! Everybody else is a bad shot! Hahahahaha
So you don't believe people who are zeroing their firearms in?
Freedom Will Prevail I think it was humour mate, plus, zeroing in a rifle can’t really be considered a miss if you ask me
@@WarriorLL no. You just suck.
It is really hard to find anything more fun than 22lr.
Only one thing is more fun than a semi auto 22.lr. And that's two .22lr!!!
Idk about that i shoot .22s cuz they are cheap. If 7.62x39 or 5.56 was as cheap id never shoot .22lr that being said i love my Henry .22lr
@@johnharrington4757 lmao I'd rather shoot anything else other than my 22lr. But nothing in my safe is more nostalgic than my nylon 66. I learned on that gun, and it's been in my family since 1972.
The 22lr IS a gateway drug.
@@jackdundon2261 that's what my dad always said. He always wondered how they could manufacture a .22 round for just 2 cents a round. The amount of lead, brass, and powder HAD to cost more than 2 cents a round but they knew it was a gateway to the bigger, harder calibers lol
Get some!! I’ve never had the honor of meeting Mr. Miculek but thru all the videos I’ve seen of him I feel like I know him.
Wow!!! I have a Remington Nylon 66 also that I got from my dad when he couldn't shoot anymore. I've not seen another one until this video. It's such a great plinker and small game .22 rifle. My dad and I used to go shooting with it in the backwoods of Tennessee. So neat to see Jerry with one also.
Love that you did this video in honor of the great nylon 66 it was my first rifle as well though I lost mine in the swamps of Florida so I went on a mission to replace it about 20 years ago and ended up with all three colors in my collection and they have become the first guns I bring out when teaching women and kids how to shoot and enjoy the sport.
Had a Nylon 66 in the ‘70s. Awesome fun. Used to shoot anti-freeze bottles at 200 yds with the iron sights. My first rifle as a kid was a Remington 510C.
Thank you Jerry you put a smile on my face every video I watch. God bless
😂 I love listening to Jerry laugh. Talk about pure joy doing what you do. It's infectious!
I grew up on the Nylon 66! One of the rifles I learned to shoot with. My dad always talked about Tom Frye's record when showing off the rifle. When he passed away 3 years ago, it was one of the ones I was able to keep of his and one day my kids will learn to shoot with it!
I still have my Nylon 66. Bought it from a high school friend 1967. He had just graduated and was entering the US Navy. That little rifle has taken hundreds of cotton tails, eradicated gophers, rats, armadillos, snapping turtles and other pests. Accurate, reliable, just plain fun to shoot. It's been a couple years since I last had it out, but now I have the bug to take it out again. Thanks, Jerry!
Cameraman's breathing intensifies
Damn mouth breathers
My Nostalgic moment. Jerry and Kay taught my CCW class at Clarks Gun(miss that great store)in 2006. Jerry did the shooting portion and after the class he invited everyone to shoot theirs and some of his guns. I had known about Jerry for a decade before and so what a suprise when I found out he was the instructor. He is a great guy and a southern gentleman. Thanks for the memory Jerry!
@Bobby Pointer I have wined and dined with kings and queens and I've slept in alleys and dined on pork and beans
I just recently resorted my first .22 rifle for my son I’ve had this gun for over 28 years! It was fun taking it out and shooting it with him! Thanks for all the great videos you share and for taking the time to share shooting tips with everyone!
l am 75 years old now still got the first 22 auto Rifle it's a j.c.higgans made by hi-standard with a beaver tail forend...Still going strong....Thanks Jerry...!
I still have mine too. Bought it at a hardware store of all places (about $60).
Jerry, the Master gunman. Always love watching him.
I have my fathers Nylon 66 in Apache black. What a fantastic rifle. The fact that Remington hasn’t reintroduced this rifle is mind boggling.
I have one also.
I paid $39.00 + tax in 1973.
Still love to shoot it.
The machinery was worn out so production ceased in 1989.
Remington's quality control is garbage these days.
@sakamoto2467 Remington in general is garbage....look at their R51.
A quiver filled with arrow blanks cut to hold a mags worth of ammo and the capped with rubber pencil erasers was a must in the 70's for fast reloads...
Its crazy to think that me in my late 30’s would be rolled, smoked and stomped by a half blind 64 year old man at ANY shooting task.
Remington nylon 66 was my first firearm also! I was about 9 years old and still have mine!
I never get tired of watching you shoot, Mr. Miculek.
still have mine. dad gave to me xmas 86'. i was 9 years old. still shoots great, had to replace the shell interruptor because of double feeding when manually cycling. back to new after 30 years and countless bricks of dirt cheap 90's 22lr.
I'd always wanted a Nylon 66 but my parents wouldn't let me have a gun as a kid.
I was greatly disappointed when production ceased. In 2009,I saw one for sale at a local range so I snapped it up @ $300.00.
It's Seneca Green, was made in Feb 1962 according to the production code & shoots like it's got eyes.
@Phil Hall It was well taken care of by the previous owner(s).
You got a smoking deal, the green ones are very expensive due to low production....
My first gun/and rifle I got was an old Montgomery Wards model 31a .22lr western field rifle bolt action. Last year my pops surprised me and completely restored it and gave it to me again last Christmas. Very awesome nostalgic feeling. Now it looks better than when I had it as a kid lol.
Jerry resisting the urge to use the shot timer.... _yeah, that's not gonna happen._ 😆
My dad had one of these. Great memories, we'd use it when we were shark fishing . Its amazing how a rifle can be a part of fond childhood memories. I'm sure so many people that watch these videos can relate to memories with their parents and grandparents. Long live the 2nd amendment.
Those are classic.22’s! Reminds me of my Marlin 60 that holds 18 rounds that I got on my 16th birthday way back in 1971. Good shooting Jerry! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
Hey Jerry, Great video. I happen to have a Nylon 66 that my grandfather bought new. It was made in 1969. I have had it for 35 years and never shot it. I cleaned it and went to the range. Extremely accurate and fun to shoot. Thanks for sharing
The Remington nylon 66 was my first gun also. Fun gun and almost indestructible.
That was also MY very first gun, purchased in the Norfolk Navy Exchange in 1973 for $50.
I still have it!
About 20 years ago I purchased a Ruger 10/22 for it's eventual replacement. When teaching friends to shoot, women especially, they much preferred the Remington Nylon66 to the Ruger!
Come to think of it, so do I!
Great video and thanks for sharing!
I always wanted a nylon66 loved the apache black and chrome look as well as the traditional. I got a ruger 10/22 and still have it.
You have to love that Jerry laugh. It's great to see you back to swamp days just having fun...great video.
“All I need is a beagle with me and I could...I know I could shoot better.”
Good video. I got my first .22 rifle when I was past 65 years old. The Nylon 66 is pretty expensive. I got a Marlin model 60 and can hit a 25 yard target with iron sights. I put a Nikon Rimfire scope on it and am decent with an 8” plate at 100 yards. Shooting a .22 rifle is so much fun!
It’s Nice to watch someone’s lifelong love of firearms still there and still doing what they do!
That’s pretty awesome. That is the same rifle my father bought me for my first. Great rifle! Still shoots like a dream too!
How the round jumps up into the chamber is a beautiful thing indeed
The video has been over and I'm still stuck on that. About to go watch it again
You can single load this rifle too by holding it with the ejection port facing up (empty magazine tube of course), place a single round on the side of the closed bolt, and then quickly rack it. There really isn't another semi auto .22 like it.
42 years old. Dad gave me one for Christmas when I was 13. Still have it. Great rifle
Grew up on 22lr, now I’m a HUGE fan of .17 hmr and wsm. Still gonna teach young ones to shoot 22 first
Always feels good to come full circle and revisit good memories! Timeless
I am 13 and i have a airsoft ASG CZ P-09 its fun to shoot :)
The Nylon 66 is my first gun too. I bought it in 1974 for $60. I still have it. A friend borrows it to use in a smallbore silhouette competition. I used to use it for that purpose but now use a Henry lever.
my first gun is a sears roebuck model 3t ted williams 22lr rifle
Remington Nylon 76, the lever action version of the Nylon 66, my very first rifle!
First gun was my dads first marlin model 60..still running ♾ rounds later
I still have my Glenfield Model 60!
I have a model 795 I bought for about 150$ still my favorite purchase
I had the black and chrome nylon 66. I wish I still had it. It was so much fun to shoot. I bought it when I was 16. I'm 52 now. Thanks for the memories.
You never forget your first! Lol a 22 is always a good start.
Jerry your chuckle is complete joy... love it.
Everyone: an old .22
Jerry Miculek: 30mm vulcan cannon
Great post! I got my first as a little kid, when it was gifted to me by a neighbor. They sold at Sears for $50 OTD! Since then it has taken me forever to get near perfect ones for each of my grandkids. A beautiful little weapon, at about 4 lbs, and nearly indestructible. The market in 1949 was trying to get these in the hands of trappers. Fits perfectly, barrel down in a back basket, and the top tang ambidextrous safety makes it the perfect outdoors tool.
Jerry
Realize you are a god in shooting world.....
We would need your lifetime to get close to your d squad...
Cheers great one
Ken
Not my first .22 but it was my first semi-auto and it is still with me all these years later. I became a marksman and a hunter with it when I was young taking countless squirrels with head shots and then it fed my family when I had kids and got retired only about ten years ago. I still take it out now and then, since when I do; I also take out all those experiences that have made me who I am. My range is right out my back door and I shoot something about 5 days a week.
Came from Iraq vet 8888 as well as demo ranch... Subbed.... Can't believe I haven't heard of you..
I purchased my first 22lr rifle recently and have been having so much fun. The smile on Jerry's face is perfect, hope to be doing the same in my own future.
I'd like to know how your shooting glasses differ from the ones your wearing? I believe I need some.
Would like to know also
I believe the lens are just adjusted to focus on the front sight.
@lahokc59
Yup, that's true. I have a pair of yellow tint glasses in my truck and on my bike. They really do help see contrast, especially at night and low light conditions.
His "regular" glasses are bifocals I bet, and his shooting glasses are for far sightedness only. Or, maybe the bifocal is located in a different spot, to see the sights better. Not sure..... But if he says the reason he missed is because he doesn't have his shooting glasses, I believe him! lol
Oh lord no, I wasn't doubting his ability, because in my book he is the best there is, I was just wondering what the difference was in the glasses. I'm getting older and having trouble hitting my targets as well as I use to, and thought he might explain how they made his shooting glasses different to help him see better on the range.
Got mine (brown stock) back in the mid-50s. It was a 15 year birthday present from my parents. Had it till the 1990s and lost it moving. Then about 20 years later I saw one (Black stock) in a local pawn shop. I snapped it up. Happy memories.
A good friend let me shoot his old 522 speed master. I love these old .22s.
thumbugly That was one of the best 22’s around. Even the pump model Remington shot well!
@@carlwilliams8354 yes indeed!
My Grandad bought one in Seneca Green in 1960. It's mine now! Wonderful little rifle.
Remington Nylon 66 was my first.22 and I wish I still had it.😭
😎🇺🇸🗽✝️🇮🇱👍
@Bill Simmons NEVER forget the USS LIBERTY attack
I've still got my Marlin 60 and Sears and Roebuck 20 gauge shotgun from 1979.. Mowed yards for a whole season to get them. They rarely get out to the range anymore. A lot of memories of my grandpa in both. Refinished the Marlin probably 20 years ago and the shotgun needs to be done but I just don't have the heart to do it. Got both of my grandpa's shotguns too but they have not had rounds put thru them in 30+ years. Cleaned them really well when I got them and oiled them up for storage.
I had a black and chrome 66 back when I was a kid. I never liked it. It didnt seem as accurate as the others I had, and it always seemed cheaply made. Absolutely beautiful and unique rifle, just never liked it.
I still have mine I love it man it's a fun oil plinker. And the black chrome one is the most valuable one out of all of them.
Let’s not forget the opening scene of this video....that made my day.
If somebody broke into his house the last thing they hear would be that (beep)
Hahahahaaaa!
That beep will be the sonic sound of an expiring heart's 💓 graphic lines going flat...beeeeeppp..
My dad had a chrome and black 66. I loved that rifle, still do. I can feel it firing in my hands watching this! That and the Henry I got for my 13th birthday are what I learned to shoot aerial targets and running rabbits with.
Is your camera man okay, Jerry? I am worried.
My first "real" gun, too! I loved that gun, wish I still had it. Got it in '75, used, a gift from my uncle. [Thanks, Don!] It was such a great shooting gun. Remington needs to bring it back!
I only have 22LR Glock upper conversions to teach new gun students
A Ruger 10/22 probably cost as much as that upper conversion kit.
Keep these videos coming. Nice to see what kind of guns a legend keeps and has in his safe. One day I may be able to shoot half as fast as you do sir. You are an amazing shooter and your daughter is following right in your foot steps which is an amazing thing to see. Awesome father daughter time at your place.
My first powder burning gun, about 1961 or 62. I still have a different one I got in the early 1970s(I had to pawn my first one to pay a speeding ticket, failed to get it back before it was sold). I always loved this little rifle!
I love it! My first new gun, too. $49 at Target in 1974, a birthday gift from my folks.I still have it (along with the hang tag), and shoot it several times a year.
Me and my new-in-1967 Nylon 66 when I was 17 ... pop can at 100 yards... 5 shots... 5 hits. Me and my 55-year-old+ Nylon 66 at age 70+...what pop can??? Still my all-time FAVORITE firearm out of dozens I’ve owned. If you load too many, insert the tube as far as you can, shoot a few, give the tube a shove and a twist and fire 14 more times... Too bad it doesn’t use Ruger magazines. 🤪. Do NOT over lubricate them. It’s not needed and just attracts dirt. I’ve only cleaned mine once in 55 years other than a swab down the barrel once a year. Had it out last November and it still groups just fine. (Yes, this is the same note I posted on Hickok 45…. True here too!)
I've owned 3 or 4 Nylon 66's. Never had one that'd shoot a full mag without hanging up, let alone "Micul-auto". Great vid Jerry. Love to see more like this! You are a living legend.
My dad bought a Nylon 66 .22 for me and my brothers to shoot when I was 11 and to this day it is my favorite gun! Great to learn on and plink with. Many a paper target and a few varmint have met their maker with this gun. Its now 47 year old and is as good today as it was out of the box.
I have my late dad's Nylon 66, it was the first firearm I ever shot. When I got it a few years ago I took it and my 1987 Marlin 60 to the range, the old Remington still shot better.
When I got home I did a detail clean, it was dust dry inside and caked with powder residue, but it was still running and good at that.
I got one from a friend a few years back, black with chromed metal. I love it.
Its a treat to see somebody whose shot as much as Jerry and genuinely get excited and almost giddy to play around with a simple .22lr.
I don’t know who has a better excited giggle, You sir or Bert Reynolds! he-he!
My very first gun is Stevens. 22 short, long, and long rifle. 1967 and still have it and it still shoots great.
My first gun was (still have it) a Remington 870. Years later I found a gen 1 ps90 that I picked up for my pops for Christmas. The two greatest things he gave me was a strong work ethic and a passion for firearms.
MY Fondest memories of my youth is going "Varminting" with my Father in the forest of Northern California with his Nylon 66. It is OD Green and I thought I held the power of God in my hands with hat rifle. Dad cant get out and hunt anymore but I still have that rifle and now I used it to teach my kids about hunting and firearms safety. Every time I see it, it brings on the waves of nostalgia.
Back in my Grandfather's day there was a promotional deal when you bought a Remington chainsaw it came with a free Nylon 66! now after all these years I still have the Chainsaw but unfortunately the Nylon 66 was lost in a fire, the money I'd pay to have it back!
Imagine if you had the promotional deal article. Chainsaw, nylon 66 and both original boxes 🤯
Wanted one of those as a kid, still do! My grandpa bought me a Marlin 60, which was my first rifle. 40 years later, I still have it.
I love the way the round hops into the chamber, I want one now.
My father has the exact model he bought in 1968. It was his 1st rifle also He bought it when he was 20. Im now 20 and have his original rifle it still fires exactly the way it should everytime. Remington makes amazing guns.
Thank you so much for bringing us great content! God bless you Jerry!
That laugh though! Never gets old!!
