Time to sperg about airshit again!
From PNWgorilla to seemingly every ranger ever what is it with milsim airshit? It must just be super easy to sell your tactical t-shirts to kids at airshit games or something, because I cannot for the life of me understand why every EAS'd ranger ends up there otherwise, outside MSW being founded by a ranger?
Because rangers aren’t high-speed low-drag enough to start a podcast or a coffee company, so milsim/airsoft are the only ways to monetize their career.
 
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.
So I tried to find a recent MSW video, showing people that aren't just running at eachother in open fields, and I ran across this. Timestamped for a funny comment.


When they get to the Sunday "massive fight" around 28:22 gotta love just hosing BB's down range with no recoil, reload, care about keeping the barrel cool, etc.
 
So I saw some really cringe screencaps on my YT feed of everyone's favorite fake cop, fake bounty hunter, conman fraud supreme Patty Mayo, who's latest fake ass show has him cosplaying as a judge Judge Judy wise

I know Donut did a two for one drive by nuking but this little fucker still is at it. Why hasn't someone shut Patty down already for impersonating a cop?

I've been waiting for him to be a featured guest in the people dying thread for almost a decade with much disappointment.
 
Aesthetics mattering. Holy fuck just look at the past 300 years of firearms. Anyone claiming aesthetics never mattered is fucking delusional. It's the same reason no one gave a shit about something like that zip 22lr, or that recent "ounce" hunk of shit that was floating around for a bit recently.
It's why the MP5 is still top dog despite the existence of things like the MCX and friends, which are tecnically "better", but none are the gun of John McClain, and they never will be. It also helps a ton that its still the best shooting SMG yet devised, despite everyone else having 70 years to either catch up, or at least competently copy them.

Related: That new roller delayed Taurus PCC looks like a bag of smashed assholes. I don't care how good it shoots, or how cheap it may get, I don't want it. The Springfield Kuna and the Stribog both go into the same box, too.

Shame the GP100 died in the US, that was a neat pistol.
 
That shit burns my ass. they ugly fucker killed USFA. they were making the Colt quality SAA's at 1/3rd to 1/2 Colt prices. Great steel too. damn shame.
I had heard that too (from forgotten weapons), but it’s actually not true - the owner of USFA was independently wealthy.
Brian Pearce recently released a video, he was involved peripherally back then:


They were great guns, better than any post war colt imho, at least once they started building in-house rather than assembling Uberti parts. Hard to get into today because prices are, frankly, nuts

Standard MFG makes SAA's of the highest quality, nearly equal to the Gen 3 Colts. only mark against them is they don't offer much variety. 7 1/2in, 5 1/2in and 4 3/4in in .45 colt with an option for engraving. USFA made a shit ton of different makes of the colt.

I need to pick up a Standard at some point, I’ve heard they’re really well done. I also seem to recall some of the people and/or machines from USFA headed there after the closure.
And to be fair, I handled a friends 2024 Colt SAA, it wasn’t bad, it seems like CZ maybe cleaned up that operation a bit.
For a single action it’s hard to not just go the Ruger route, you can do pretty neat things in 45 Colt with the Blackhawk, let alone the 5 shot customs. Although chatter online is that newer Rugers are kind of crap, quality control wise, and apparently Berretta is sniffing around for a takeover

The latest Gen 3 is widely regarded as the best SAA Colt's ever done. Standard had people from USFA and Colt help set up their SAA production IIRC.

I have a Ruger Blackhawk .45 that has over 10,000 rounds to date. lots of +P loads, blackpowder and standard pressure. It's a great gun. The quality is in the design, not the fit and finish. Bill Ruger designed them to be working guns for outdoorsman and ranchers. They Cheap out where they can without compromising the functionality, so an Aluminum grip frame, plastic rear sight, plastic grips. The super blackhawk has more care put into it, but that costs extra. The blueing isn't all that pretty like a colt or even an italian SAA, but it is hardy. I've rarely cleaned mine (basically only after i shoot BP in it) and it's never developed rust, even after days of traipsing through the appalachian rain forests.

I don't carry it too often these days now that i have a Colt's Anaconda in .45.

The beretta takeover is likely. Ruger's gave them a few seats on the board. the company is solid but they've been making some questionable market decisions. A takeover won't be a bad thing IMO. Beretta owns a lot of gunmakers and they're pretty hands off. SAKO/TIKKA, H&H, Uberti and so on.

If it was FN or H&K looking to buy i'd be worried.
 
FocusTripp had a pretty good stream last night about the death of GunTube. He finally had a non yes man on named “Lost Hater,” and Richard wasn’t there. He was replaced by a Brass Facts Discord moderator, lmfao.

Lost Hater called out Hop’s decade of shitty videos and Knight’s Armament’s overpriced mid rifles, and the chat was pretty split on those takes. Navyman, M26 Lemon Party, and others were also catching strays in the chat for their terrible content. Even the rage bait section was interesting, with a dog shooting someone with a shotgun and RT reporting that Joe Biden had sex with Kamala Harris.

I really wish they’d bring more dissenters on, because his typical hugbox has gotten extremely boring.

Im not bothered if someone doesn't like Hop or Brass. I like them both but skip every video I dont care about. I no longer have a $3000 hat so I dont give two shits about lasers
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.

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.

That being said, nods, lasers, and FRTs are absolutely pointless. If you waste money on those (as I have in the past) you're throwing cash away
