FRTs are gay and shitty, but night vision devices and lasers are absolutely necessary for my job. If you aren’t making a profit using your gear, it’s probably not actually worth the cost, and your home defense setup is likely more than enough.

This you?

I mean, its their job to make videos, and they're probably mirroring what most people complain about. I doubt they make a lucrative amount of money and you cant sell ammo on tacswap when you're done with the review.

To be fair, NVGs and Lasers are one time costs. Ammo is a constant cost.

The man who does not budget his pay to include gas and ammo costs is bitchmade and NGMI. Especially if they routinely go out in the hills and shoot trash from a distance.

As an aside, Guntubers have been complaining about acquiring ammunition for over a decade now and I can't count the "reviews" I've seen where they only have an odd number of rounds, usually a quarter of a box, to fire. I'm guessing that's just baiting the hook for ammo sponsorships like Federal because getting ammo is half the preparation for a range trip.
 
Ill go even further and say FRTs were the final straw and thats why everyone is talking about "guntube is dying"

I wouldn't be surprised if most people who fell into the hyper-consumer trap and got one, then went to the range and fired a whole days worth of ammo in minutes and felt like a big silly billy when they realized they just threw money away.

FRTs are peak consumerism at this point, even if I do think they're pretty neat. It just makes you realize how much money people can burn on ammunition without visibly flinching.
 

Trench continues to talk about my beloved Slav shit and I take it personally. Actually there's not a lot to talk about on this one cause he doesn't say much. He just refers to his WASRs as " a vibe" multiple times and that's about it. I did realize his camera woman who he refers to as "Nighthawk" is his wife, who he let's talk a little but during this video.

He also did this poll, so call it. Did his retarded fanbase vote this way for the schadenfreude of a PSAK review or are they hoping eventually they'll get a positive review to validate their purchase if enough people review it?

I'd assume they're a bunch of hatewatchers at this point just doing it for a laugh. It's amazing how this fucking guy is still crying about shit he didn't experience, a community he wants to exist that doesn't want him in it, and just AKs in general.
 
An FRT'd .22 is absolutely wonderful but anything other than .22 is really expensive and even that best of them are a bit less reliable than I'd like for a serious gun.

Why even complain about the quality of something that you can't even find on the market to buy? I haven't seen a KAC rifle on an online retailer since 2020.

KAC has shrunk the size of their production facility and subleased out parts of it to other businesses. I think the days of production overrun KAC rifles and parts are over.

I got mine on gunbroker. Plenty still available if you are interested.

I set myself up for this one. I meant brand new or reasonably used. I got interested in guns when you had ARFCOM hyping KAC up as the pinnacle of ARs and you could still find them through retailers, so I'll forever associate KAC with that mindset.

You could complain about Sig 5XX series rifles or genuine HK roller delayed rifles costing a lot for what they are but they aren't being made anymore and the used market turns into a collector market.

Granted, those prices are bullshit for an AR-15/SR-25 with a lot of manufacturers making very similar rifles out there but never underestimate the sheer stupidity GWOT collectors and cloners. Again, I just don't see why one would waste their breath complaining about unobtainable weapons. It would be like complaining about the quality of a Delorean and getting mad at collectors for wanting them.

Hot take: airsofters actually use gear. SHTF fantasy day dreamers have a less than zero chance of gearing up for their tarkov sheepdog shawn ryan edc day dream. And no, I don't play airsoft.

Hotter take: They actually don't, or at least they are on equal usage. Back in highschool I'd go to the local paintball field and they'd host "skirmish" games for airsoft that are basically just irl csgo matches but even less organized and with team sizes way to large. Most people wouldn't even kneel in the dirt they'd just stand behind anything that looked vaguely big enough to work as cover and I distinctly remember some kid getting mad because leftover paint on one of the buildings smeared off onto his crye g3s and he legit almost threw a tantrum. I can count the number of times I saw an airshitter go into the prone, even at MSW, on one hand.

When they have nods, lasers and FRTs but start whining about ammo costs during the video I start to understand their unhinged critics a little bit.

The couple times I watched trench it was the most annoying thing "Hey guys, this 5k round burndown is expensive so please subscribe to my patreon or else I cannot afford both tren and ammo and will have to quit" it goes the same for any other channels, endless bitching about how expensive it is to produce these "high quality me shooting on a flat range and talking about the gun" videos because ammo is just so expensive, can't do high round count reviews anymore ammo too spendy! Then their next video is "look I bought a new gun!"
