  • it also annoys the living fuck out of me when people call assault rifles "machine guns"

  • this is true. i dont think i mentioned that in the video, but that is very true

  • DUDE finally someone who i can agree with! i am joining the marines in a few years so i got myself into the habit of calling weapons, parts of weapons, etc. by their ACTUAL names! and it drives me nuts when people have no idea what their talking about and call it the wrong thing. if it sounds like im flaming your video im not im agreeing with it. nice vid man.

  • I hate when people call a magazine a clip! drives me nuts!

  • I have a lee enfield mk2 and the clip is detachable, as with most enfields ive seen

  • Pretty sure that it's just some, but perhaps all are as someone said for cleaning and maintenance and what not.

    Went to a gun show this weekend (God bless America) and they were selling enfield magazines. Never seen em' for sale before! Interesting people still bring this up, I thought of that when I saw them.

  • Great video man, hopefully people will start taking your advice when posting videos. Also, for a fixed/internal magazine specifically for airsoft would be the cheap walmart rifles/SMG's that feed through the gravity well. Once again, thanks for the video and your video has been favorited!

  • you have a misconception yourself because in 01:46 you showed a .303 lee enfield smle to show and example of a fixed magazine but that particular rifle has a romovable 10 round magazine. many people think that it is fixed because you can top it up with stripper clips but this is not the case because you can actually load it by topping up the magazine with a srtipper clip while the magazine is still inserted into the rifle or you can replace the magazine with another full magazine

  • prove it to me that it is a detachable box magazine, i believe its a fixed magazine on the bottom that is non-detachable.

  • The Lee enfeild has a fixed magizine. I know because I own one and it is kickass.

  • dude my friend owns a lithgo mk2 smle and we have alot of fun doing mad minutes and we certainly use extra magazines and not extra stripper clips

  • Actually the Lee-Enfield did have the capability of a removable magazine which could be seated into the rifle with ammunition in it, although it was rare and normally detached for cleaning purposes only.

  • That is indeed correct.

  • Manypersons is unfortunately correct, it is detatchable. However it was found very expensive to give soldiers mags when you could give them simple stripper clips, so thats how it worked

  • There actually are "rifled barrels" in airsoft. The Tanio Koba Twist barrels technically have rifling in them, though they do not impart spin on the bb like real rifling. You can look them up you wanna no more about them,cause I don"t feel like elaborating. Just thought I'd add that.

    Anyways, very good job. All the noobs need to see this. haha.

  • a few people have told me about these but i dont think anyone mentioned brand names...thanks, i may check it out.

  • more people need to see this.

  • just throwing it out there, ICS m4/m16 variants, the "unjammythings!?!" are the spring decompressors ;)

  • ah yes. some model AEGs have a spring reset feature when you push on the forward assist. good point

  • pretty good, 2 points though.

    The term GUN, doesnt only refer to artillery - Machine guns such as the Minimi, or the GPMG are also guns. Also most LSW's such as the L96, are also GUNS, due to their higher cyclic rate, and greater barrel length.

    Also, the terms charging handle and cocking handle can be used interchangeably

  • hmm...perhaps in other countries it can be used interchangeably, i wouldnt go as far as to say it is in the US. i think if i referred to the charging handle as a cocking handle an NCO would slap me. sounds like youre from the UK?

  • One thing, whilst a RIFLE is not a gun, certain variants of machine gun ARE.

    Take, for example, the British army:

    L85 - IW, standard issue rifle, this is NOT a gun.

    L86 - LSW, a light support weapon, due to having a larger barrel, larger weight of fire, and higher cyclic rate, this IS a gun.

    GMPG - standard issue machine gun practically across the world, this IS a GUN.

    Also, the charging handle, can interchangeably be called the cocking handle.

    Other than that, good point.

  • i know, and i think i said this a little while back via comments that i didnt clarify this in the video. machine guns are indeed guns. GPMG by the way, which the army calls the M240B, is AmAzInG!!!! haha

  • awesome vid

  • Good vid

  • thank you for serving our country

  • bud, i volunteered =]

    no need to thank me, theres people out there doing a lot more for their community and country and loved ones than me. i havent done squat yet!

  • airsofts are still dangerous fire armes so you would still call it a gun

  • ive seen less injuries in airsoft than any other sport ive ever played. the worst ive seen was a friend of mine from the younger crowd (13 years old) get two pretty nice welts to the neck. he sucked it up like a champ and fought on! =] go jake!

    i treat any airsoft gun as if it is a real steel weapon, i always treat it as if its loaded and never point it at anything im not intending to shoot...it is only dangerous if you dont follow the cardinal rules of firearms safety.

  • No... If you watched the video you would know that a gun is an artillery piece, I did not know this either but I admit I learned it from this man.

  • gun is mainly a naval artillery piece...my bad.

  • Good stuff.  I don't call my airsoft gun a rifle since it doesn't have a rifled barrel, but I can see why you chose to do so.

  • i like this.very imformative.too bad we cant get any good stuff in the uk anymore!!!

  • how come?

  • silly laws.

    stupid kids using them to rob banks and post offices and posing on myspace with them lol.

    i did manage to get a crap airsoft m16 copy that broke after about a week!!!

  • I was going to give you 4 stars because you didn't mention the ever glorious M14... but on the other hand you did mention the M1 so I have you 5... Just don't leave out the M14 again or I'll take YOUR first born.

  • lmao roger that =]

  • wow, who cares, just because people aren't huge ROTC geeks like you, damn nerd! i bet you learned all this bullshit from your pussy ass bitches in ROTC and you think your cool cause you know everything about guns, i bet you have never touched a girl in your entire life, get a life!

  • im an infantryman in the us army, and im banning your azz =]

  • ifantry aye, are you active serving or are you back in the states

    and how bad do you need tankers, what i'm joining for

  • currently national guard...im sure its only a matter of time before im in the sandbox though. everyone goes to the sandbox now adays. idk about tankers...that was the MOS i wanted but my state doesnt have abrams.

  • i'm going to play the system but i don't know if it would work, i'm just gonna move accross the river into kentucky and sign up there after residence, i know they have a tank base, that or alabama

  • may work. im not exactly sure how it works

  • i agree totally because, people calling it the flash hider or the big orange thing, when it's really a flash surpressor makes me angry!!!

  • lol "the cocking thing"

  • who really cares get a job

  • i have one ;)

  • hhaah i hate when people talk like that in person or when i was in high school and in history class people would just sound stupid to me..but everyone else just thought they were normal..lol

  • THANK YOU!! I am sick of hearing pepole call wepons, guns. I always end up explaining that we dont have guns, the navy and the army artillry devision have guns, we have rifles

  • ever sexy m1 garand lol luv dis vid

  • haha yea that things beast =]

    thx =P

  • Whats up with a weird picture of a kid holding onto a bike handle.

  • haha that was me like a year ago at my friend andrews house...i said it looked like a speederbike from star wars or something. and he was like "wtf how do you figure" so i showed him and my gf at the time got a pic of me without me knowing. i fail =[

  • you were saying carbine wrong.

  • -sigh-

    Youre about the 300,000th person to wrongly accuse me.

    You can say it car-been or car-byne.

  • i call it a car-byne but i am ok with it both ways

  • its all good, either or.

  • you should actually name this "common firearm misconceptions", because if it was titled that, people wouldnt know the differece, except for the airsoft review part.

  • well, its catered to people in the airsoft community. anyone worth talking to in the firearms community knows all of this anyways and isnt r-tarded.

  • icic, funny video. especially that picture for "cops"

  • Yep, got that right. I'm not necessarily into airsoft, but i shoot AR-15's all the time along with Glock 40's. And I didn't find one thing that you said in there wrong. ;)

  • i just bought a G19 myself. not a fan of .40 but i havent fired it either.

  • Damn your funny ! Make more of this videos. I do take it seriusley (?) 5 ! I know my english suck

  • FA or Foward Assist is used for a jamed round in the chamber in case of a missfeed ... just thought you should know

  • not sure exactly what you mean by this, but its used to make sure the bolt is fully seated forward, meaning to ensure the round is fully seated in the chamber. sometimes when you charge the weapon, the bolt wont slam all the way home.

  • Another thing that pisses me off.... 7 year olds with guns. they make a review of their shitty little crosman gun, say it's pretty good and shoots hard. then i go ape on them, someone comes and says "hey man, hes just a kid". well, thats my point. it says right on the box 18+. people should at least do a little research before reviewing a POS.

  • it can be annoying, but these are the future veterans of our beloved milsim activity...theyll eventually figure things out, and get to our position, and hopefully have a little more humility and patience than people like you and me for the noobs of their time =P

  • yea that pisses me off. even though im not 18.. but at least I don't play with airsoft guns at my back yard lol.. and the parents are buying airsoft guns to 7 year olds.. *sigh*

  • another thing a slincer dose not fully slince a airsoft gun it should be called a supresor

  • lol in real life they arnt even called silencers---they are called suppressors in real steel too.

  • Surpressors are devices that silence the muzzle report in firearms. Airsoft guns are pretty quiet in that respect, so there aren't any surpressors for them, they are fake. Airsoft noise comes from the internal workings that cant be silenced.

  • very true.

    metal bodies are probably the best thing you can do for your AEG to suppress the noise.

  • Good work!

  • a howitser is not a gun. a howitser is an artillary piece use to hurle a small explosive charge a a very steep angle. a gun or cannon shots it at a strait angle. such as a navel gun. yes there r some ships that use howitsers it hurle strait throgh the deck. and yes there r rifled airsoft guns. they arent allowed cause the kill.

  • aha! good call. i was thinking naval gun when i made this, but i just typed in "artillery" on google images and that was one of the ones that came up. i wasnt thinking right...very good point bud, thanks for posting and righting a wrong.

  • my pistol has rifling in the barrel... is a colt delta elite

  • They did and still do sell rifled barrels for Airsoft. But they don't apply the same spin on the bullet like a real steel rifle. A airsoft rifled barrel creates a cushion around the BB, preventing it from hitting the sides of the barrel. Making it more accurate. But if your gun shoots over 350 FPS, then you really shouldn't be using it.

  • i have an A U G airsoft gun fully auto love 'em

  • too bad I already knew everything on this vid. Oh well, good for noobs though.

  • lol i cant believe ppl actually call the charging handle, the cocky thing...Also ppl need to call the bolt release the BOLT RELEASE

  • Nice vid. one glitch a clip is used to feed a mag like a striper clip feeds an internal mag or an M1 clip feeds the mag. but for the most part love the vid good for people to know this stuff.

  • Thanks bud =]

  • A revolver has a Cylinder.

  • I've been trying to tell people about mags. And clips. But they still use the word "clips" . It just shows how many noobs are in the world.

    And about the CA M15a4. Its just like saying a GG-25 even though its realy called sr-25.

    And CM.032 its realy called a M14. But I think the CA M15a4 is where almost every one got stuck saying the M15a4.

  • If only more people would watch this, then maybe youtube may be on the brink of a slightly smarter community.

  • gun- a weapon consisting of a metal tube, with mechanical attachments, from which projectiles are shot by the force of an explosive; a piece of ordnance. **by this definition a SPRING, as i am not sure if an explosion of any size is used in a green gas or electric type, airsoft "gun" is not a gun. Furthermore, if u continue to look around towards the definition of FIREARM you find no material to be used in convicting an AIRSOFT "marker" as a gun. I did a paper on it in school. u are correct. :)

  • Can you explain the difference between gun and rifle?

  • Technically, a rifle is just any firearm with rifling in the barrel. In military terms, a rifle is an individual's weapon. A gun is either a machine gun or artillery piece.

  • Thanks. It's cool to meet a soldier, much respect to you. My cousin is Psych Ops in the army.

    Can you check out my website? The link is on my home page.

  • Always nice to have a fan =]

    And Psych Ops...thats good stuff! I dont know much about them but from what Ive gathered they do psychological operations to demoralize the enemy and uplift local populations to be pro-American and what not, and I believe for a couple units you HAVE to be airborne qualified? Would you be able to fill me in here? And Ill check out your site in a little bit if I remember---remind me!

  • Well, for Psych Ops, my cousin had to complete a few tests on things like Communication with the local population, and effective use of propaganda. I don't think he had to be airborne qualified. He, I believe, is stationed in a town near Kuwait and working with the locals. I don't know much else; apparently Psych Ops likes to keep some of their stuff private. I can see why, haha.

  • haha yea thats understandable. im sure its a great job that has direct civilian counterpart jobs in public relations or law enforcement...perhaps even CIA

  • And yes, I meant to say 'remember you.'

    Or maybe I'm just sleepy and can't type correctly at the moment. :P

  • Hey Shasta! I just thought of something!!

    *Reminder to follow the link on my profile page!*

    Lol. Yes, a crude way to remember you, but it works.

  • Eh? I have to fight you on one point. The SKS can have a mag. Though with the mag you use a 5.56 and it's cheap ass hell. And you missed some ak varients (lol I was JK about that it's like impossible to name them all). Great video though.

  • it's funny how counter strike has the forward assist on the M4 pulled instead of pushed lol.

  • Haha yes its funny indeed =]

  • very nice i'll remember it when i make my reviews in the future

  • nice visual aide

  • haha u fuckin nerd carBEEN! get a real gun or join the army you puff!

  • Im a Private First Class in the US Army. My MOS is 11B10. Want to see my 201 jacket? Dumbfuck.

  • This was in response to someone telling me to get a life or join the army or something. Beat him to it.

  • lol nicely put..... i still call it the pushy thing... not really.

  • lol "use this lingo or i will take your first born"

  • finally someone who knows there stuff and i never new the technical term for a gun was artillery thanks:]

  • smart

  • I have a Steyr AUG

  • @1:46, the "fixed" magazine bolt-action rifles you are referring to are British Lee-Enfield No. 1 MkIII SMLE's in .303 British (They just so happen to have detachable box magazines). Might want to change your picture to better reflect your commentary (with like a mosin nagant, which has an internal, fixed magazine).

    And stop playing with toys, exercise your rights and buy the real thing already.

  • pretty sure the SMLE's do not have "Detachable" box magazines. and by the way, id love to exercise my rights, but im 17. im in the army but i cant be trusted with a privately owned firearm for another few months apparently =P

  • They do have detachable box mags (10 rounds); though, more commonly troops would use stripper clips to load them from the top rather than carry spare box mags themselves.

    Heck, even the Indian Commonwealth 2-A SMLE Enfields in .308 Win have detachable box mags.

    As for exercising your rights, jump on it as soon as you can: prices will never go any lower and availability probably won't get any higher. Turn 18 soon :P and buy,buy,buy....

  • man that was hilarious. its not a cocky thing, its a charging handle lol. agree 100percent, spot on video mate. 'so you can stop sounding like an idiot' lol so true!

  • hehe thanks man. happy hunting =]

  • hehe true that man! yeah my dad is buying me either a springfield xd 9mm or a glock 19 when i turn 18. its legal in my state to own one at 18, you just cant buy it from a licensed dealer, it has to be bought for you or given to you.

    my dads also buying me an AR15 with my money when i get back from training in august. i figure if the shit hits the fan, i gotta have a weapon to get me to an armory when the commies invade, right? ;)

  • boo classic armysucks

  • honestly, i agree with you. ive had a bad experience with mine. im getting an echo 1 lol

  • that was great i really hope some idiots learn something i learned new things about magazines and clips lol the one thing that bugged me about your "lingo"is how you said carbine it is not car-bean like you pronounce its carbine

  • you're about the third person to mention that about carbine...its pronounced either way, personal preference.

  • lol "the pushy button that i think lubes the barrel" " the cocky thing" hah! lol

  • thank you

  • Also, when people call their AR15 an M16(which implies atleast some limited form of automatic capabilities as are present in military rifles) it pisses me off a little. It would annoy me more if military designations weren't so jacked up.

  • while the gun-rifle thing is technically true... most military folk will not rip you a new one for it. It is more commonly referred to as your weapon, your best friend, your life, or, occasionally by numerical designation or by her individual name (i.e. the M16A2 I was equipped with for my most recent Army BRM is Sasha, 153-20). Magazine-clip makes me want to gouge out eyes and most the other comments are why i mock most airsoft people and posers who have no idea what they are talking about.

  • haha good post. whats your MOS?

  • God Bless you, call it a carbine not carbyne and magazine not clip someone undestands thank god

  • Well, it can be pronounced "eye" instead of "ee", it's really just personal preference.

  • very good man

  • funny and usefull well done :)

  • about how low?

    my M15A4 shoots on average around 250 fps with .2g and i use .25 and i still get great range and accuracy. would be interesting to see if a rifled barrel would improve that if 250 is low enough

  • 310 FPS

  • i might check that out. hows the price on it and where can i find it?

    im looking at getting a TB barrel, but this might be better. oh yeah, thats if i can crack my friggin M15A4 open. why did classic army have to make it so difficult? why cant it be like every other AR15 type AEG where it breaks down like the real steel? jeez louise.

  • very easy jest take out the 2 pins on the side oh and i belive its around 30-50 ...pretty pricy but its way more expencive if u buy a twist barrel like u want..

  • i got the pins out, couldnt slide apart the upper and lower. it was stuck and i didnt wanna force it.

  • DONT PULL UP!! make sure your battery connections are diconected and slide forward.Its suppose to be hard to pull forward tho because of the tight fit around the gear box..

  • couldnt get the upper more than maybe 1/2 an inch forward of the lower---couldnt even get to disconnect the batteries lol. ill give it a good ramming =P

  • ok but there are basic steps...

    1.dissconect the battery

    2.take out both pins forward and back

    3.slide upper reciver forward

    4.take out all body pins

    5.take out the handle with motor

    6.take out rear screw in stock

    7.take out gearbox and work on it

    8.same steps but in reverce

  • i thought you meant the connectors inside the AEG, my bad. idk what i was thinking with battery connections lol

  • JUST PUSH HARD TRUST ME....

  • THERE IS RIFELING IN SOME BARELLS

  • mhmm. weve established already in previous comments that there are aftermarket barrels you can get for your AEG that have rifling in the barrel, though the additional stability granted is questionable as the projectile itself is round.

  • actually the "foward assist" on a real m16/ar-15 varriants is a gas release button

  • no, its not.

  • w/e

  • mhm.

  • you really are dumb its used to seat the round fully up

  • lets not call names here, but uwanaugoda and i are correct here. sorry bud

  • im wondering why you keep saying carbEEn instead of the word that most of the world settles for, carbIne

  • its pronounced either way. matter of personal preference.

  • THANK YOU! Finally someone who points out all the wrong lingo! THANK YOU!

  • This is an informative video.

    And for you Punkonacid if you have kids and that is your name then maybe he should take your first born.

  • yo nigga ima bust up ya ass with my glok and blast yo ass bak to da ghetto...from - kent

  • dude your awsome! you watch military channel too?

  • i suggest this video be removed or edited for the reason that you say and i quote i suggest you start using this lingo or i will take your  first born end quote i find this offensive as i have kids and this video has been reported

  • I laughed so hard at this. Grow up. I approved it so people can learn from his example to get a life.

  • shasta rools it annoys me when noobs call magazines clips you should do a video showing people how to sand when shooting cos it annoys me when people get that wrong too

  • thank you. you gave a few to many gun examples but this guide was perfect. theres nothing more annoying than a 12 year old who just got a gun and starts blabbing randomly when your looking for an honest helpful review of a gun

  • just thought i'd let you know:

    Tanio Koba Hop Twist Barrel, with rifled grooving in the barrel, combining hop up with gyro spin for higher accuracy

  • Finally somebody who knows the difference between a magazine and a clip.

  • i never did know the diffenrence between magazines and clips. thanks for that =-)

    5*

  • Nice video! This is so true about airsoft reviews!

  • first off. good stuff in the video. second off people dont really care if it is totally correct. language and slang terms differ from area to area. so great job. your very intelligent. but im sad to say. most people will not care. at all.

  • overall its correct vocab. but you show a picture of the m 777 howitzer. a medium muzzle velocity, medium trajectory artillery piece. a gun is a high muzzle velocity, low trajectory artillery piece.

  • Very good video.

  • Nice video!

  • Great job!

    Forward assist: "a pushy thing that lubes the barrel or something"

    Hahaha hehe, thats a good one.

  • YES! Finally someone explains the difference between clip and magazine! I always knew there was a difference, but ive always had trouble explaining.

  • Commenting is disabled unless approved...meaning no more stupid ignorant comments, just questions or intelligent comments please. Kthxbai.

  • thank you!!!!!

  • then dont watch the video...its here for those that want to learn something, not those who just dont care.

  • Hmmm. Handy guide and I share your annoyance.

  • First of all, I'm sorry to say this, but your wrong about the Magazine/Clip Topic. I did some research on it to confirm my info and according to the History Channel (Mail Call), The host (Former Marine) & a Brigidaer General: A magazine is the part that contains the clip & the rounds. The clip is the mechanism that feeds the rounds into the chamber. Hence, in a airsoft magazine, the spring is the clip and the tube and loader is part of the magazine.

  • "A magazine is the part that contains the clip & the rounds. The clip is the mechanism that feeds the rounds into the chamber."

    The magazine is in fact the house of the ammunition. A clip feeds ammunition into the magazine, or stores it in the magazine. A spring is just that---a spring.

  • yes but the tanio wont let you use the hop up, causing great loss of range which is where you want the accuracy in the first place because with any barrel thats is reasonable clean can accurately hit a target at 75 (rough estimate) which is this barrels limit without hop up so unless you at a range and have 5 hours to line up your shot, this barrel becomes useless and still it does not have dead on accuracy so imo just get a tightbore(half the price) and excel bb's

  • dude theres a rifled airsoft barrel its called the tanio koba twist barrel

  • hmm awesome! msrp? and would it have any effect? the projectile is round so i wouldnt think that it would increase accuracy or stability

  • i think there is a video on it they put it in a tm m14 and it increases the accuracy very well

  • thats verry straight forward lol =p

  • haha true

  • nice! very informative

  • nice review you sound like a 30 year old kid who is the worlds smartest gun person and your awesome see ya later buy

  • haha im 16 but close guess.

  • cant the charging handle also be the cocking bolt?
