Firing the Bushmaster ACR

[callerofmusic]

if only there wasnt a law restricting fully automatic fun

[shooter2443]

@callerofmusic u can have fully automatic fun if u have the money to get the lisence for it and the weapons. A fully automatic AR-15 costs around 15 grand

[callerofmusic]

@shooter2443 do you know how to get the licence and a cheeper firearm for that?

[shooter2443]

@callerofmusic i personally havent messed around with it but i think the lisence to own a full auto is about 1 grand every year and to get a cheaper weapon i would get a used one

[Anonymous12329]

what kind of magazenes does this take?

[blweems24]

Freakin soldier wanna be. Thats the closest youll ever get to combat. Stupid people like you when put into a combat situation will choke.

[CombatMasterpiece]

@blweems24 Hey man it's just a video relax.

[31Navyseals]

beautiful weapon wish i could afford one!

[dragonfly227722]

is it fully automatic or is it just semi ????

[gator32101]

u suck at shooting

[MrMonkeebalz]

sounds like a paintball gun

[randomenjoyment]

How is the hop up with 6mm 20g. pellets?

[CamoShield]

@randomenjoyment Its a real gun, dude........

[CamoShield]

@randomenjoyment If you think it is airsoft, then, just, wow.........

[4everUSNavy]

@randomenjoyment im going to guess you didnt watch the beginning of this video. pay attention, its noobs like you that give airsofters a bad name

[ShadowWo1f53]

@randomenjoyment Dumbass, it's a real gun.

[randomenjoyment]

@ShadowWo1f53 No its not...

[ShadowWo1f53]

@randomenjoyment Then how, pray tell, is it not a real gun?

[leomantles]

shamefully bushmaster has troubles (but not yours) mostly miss in the feeding lets hope they improve the rifle but for now Im staying with remington

[TheGreatCzar1979]

Good shooting grouping is good.

[fireworksguy666]

are those p mags?

[airtexaco]

Thanks for posting this, beautiful weapon and groups!

[gto3440]

amazing shot group my friend

[ElMuertoMonkey]

You have sexy hands for a man

[fumasterchu12]

Great shooting, that ACR is a sexy beast! God bless.

[TheLaserwaffle]

I half to say it's a great gun (except for it's recall, look it up on wiki to see what it was). You had a shot on the target too I did get to see the whole vid because it didn't load all the way on my iPod, other than that you seem to love it!

[checkthisoutNAO]

nope AK 47 is better. jk lol ak 47's are much more... hardy... but ACR's are a boss. there so deadly its ridiculous

[KalashnikovKid762]

@checkthisoutNAO <-- Plays a lot of Call of Duty LULZ

[KhaosxGwS]

whats the total weapon system weight? and mag size im planning on getting one soon to use in over seas ops and just i love my M4 to death but its all about weight for me.

[sc3nt360]

@KhaosxGwS you can easily find that on their website.

[BadGolbez1870]

Great weapon!



[skate4tacos96]

Wow great grouping! I would love to shoot the acr.

[AdamKarolewics12]

in my opinion, this is the most well designed and perfectly operating (or at least the most attractive) looking assault rifle created to date. but it's most useful ability is over looked easily: it can mimic the body, design, and round type of any weapon. i've only seen this version of the acr. good video by the way!

[mijnnaamisbart13]

but will it blend ????

[ferrer985]

too bad you didn't do a full mag on auto to show its fire rate.

[jtaghero]

Wow that is really quiet

[jdeluisa]

@jtaghero The camera buffers the noise

[556Fanatic]

2.5-3k pricetag would be easier to swallow if it wasn't so front heavy and made by a highly inferior manufacturer. There are so many manufacturing shortcuts on this weapon they actually used a barrel with a cutout to mount an M203... on an M4. SCAR's in the same price range, nice and light, made with higher quality materials from FN Herstal, groups about .5MOA out of the box... I could go on but there's really no comparison.

[chadsowash]

This guy knows how to fire... One key to firing consistency is resetting the trigger and you can hear the pressure he provides and then the immediate fire after... He gained points after hearing that...

[killahkilldevilhillz]

it will fail around 1000 rounds and get fucked up

[Glockcrazy19]

how do you afford to shoot so much

[g3seifert]

Glock like reliability, UGH did you just compare a ACR to a glock, Yuck, where is your mannors and taste??? No lie though, i was going to buy an acr until I found out it was made by bushmaster. so then i said fuck it Ill go with the AR plat form that is commonly used but instead i went with the Colt 6940 :) and nothing but smiles here, not feed and no problems at all so far!

[Lardman678]

HOLY BALLS, 4600 ROUNDS A WEEK???

[MatthewDearth]

The "less public demand" for the ACR comes from the obscene price per unit that Bushmaster (or any retailer) wants. For a slightly better mousetrap, its a lot of money to ask.

[ImScarfaceAl]

that gun is so badass. im going to own one soon

[neocon70]

in my town, we call this the "spic killer." no nigger or brown skin has ever walked away from it's muzzle.

[GaAjPwNz]

Chicken Wing!

[BaldCreations]

Tryhard.

[jdeluisa]

@NdzDJ My camera automatically adjusts the volume to compensate for loud noises. It's not really that quiet.

[quick153]

where at in new mexico? i live in rio rancho

[40ozRoo]

your grouping aint terrible, i think its just your squeeze. not bad at all

[therealzslimshady1]

sounds like u played high way to hell

[bwhsamick]

Good video

[levaslevas]

how much did it cost?

[NPCwars]

this could very well be the next army carbine. it's cheaper than the m4a1 which is interesting.

[7commenter7]

@NPCwars No its not.

[NPCwars]

@7commenter7 Oh really? Quote from an Army article - "For example, the Adaptive Combat Rifle — another leading contender — already costs less than the M4a1, according to Jason Schauble, vice president of Remington’s Defense Division. The M4a1 runs about $1,300 per copy."

[7commenter7]

@NPCwars Dude it costs $2,500 - $3,000. 

[NPCwars]

@7commenter7 Dude did you read my post or what?

[7commenter7]

@NPCwars Yea you quoted some army article without a name and gave false info.

[NPCwars]

@7commenter7 "Gave false info" Yeah, sure. "Army article" Want the link?

armytimes . com/news/2011/07/army-sets-its­-sight-on-its-next-carbine-070­911/

Think before you say "without a name and gave false info".

[7commenter7]

@NPCwars I do think. The AR15 does cost about $1,500. But the ACR is double.

[NPCwars]

@7commenter7 Well lets leave it at that.

[iLoveMyGun89]

You should have told everyone you were shooting from 1500 yards, and the second click was the bullet hitting the wood lol

[ski102426]

What was the distance you were shooting from? and which Eotech model?

[ski102426]

@ski102426 My bad dude I skipped about halfway down didn't hear you say how far 

[fuzzyrhino5]

have the aisfot version (im 13) as epic as the real thing.... but if only it ejected cartridges

[Dracofyre]

In conclusion: Russia - Don't fuck with it.

[modeltrain9500]

Lol, its a great gun. I love how people justify their hobbies by saying its for battle or protection. Fact is, you will likely NEVER need this. Dont get me wrong, id love to have one of these big boy toys, its just always funny the reasons people use for having something like this. Its as if, "totally hella-fuking balls to the wall awesome" doesnt count as a real reason...

[AcidfartProductions]

You must give me that rifle!

[Zaku186]

So this rifle is like the awesome lovechild of an AR and an AK?

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

Why the hell would this Assault Rifle only fire 9mm rounds... If it really does have no recoil, then it fires 9mm.

[jdeluisa]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 9 mm? Where did you get that from?

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@jdeluisa My friend is a Master Sgt in the military and she claims that it has no recoil.

[MRTheBLOODSTORM]

@jdeluisa i think hes a retard lol

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@jdeluisa Plus, the M9 (Beretta M92FS) has no recoil because it fires 9mm.

[ScopedPewPew]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 This rifle definitely does not fire 9mm.... Wtf

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@ScopedPewPew ok. if the M1A1 Carbine was designed to fire 9mm pistol rounds, then... hey, cant blame me for goin back.

[krakow784]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 i think u have serious mental problems and u shud get checked out immediately!

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@krakow784 What? The M1A1 was designed to use hard hitting 9mm rounds over long distances. If I have mental issues, how come I know how to spell?

[krakow784]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 ok u said the bushmaster acr fires 9mm, how does that make any sense the only kit for the bushmaster that i know of right now is in 5.56mm and i can spell just fine besides everything i wrote was almost correct who cares, and its joke.

[getsomeanthrax]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 die in a fire ,cunt

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@getsomeanthrax For not knowing what round an ACR fires? Ignorance is the worst downfall possible.

[Dracofyre]

@eXpLodingj2ice2

Are you an idiot?

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@Dracofyre Tell me, if Im such an idiot, where did assault rifles come from in the first place?

[Dracofyre]

@eXpLodingj2ice2

Smartass answer: The store?

Correct answer: The assault rifle was born out of the requirements of war in the early 1900s. The old bolt action rifles just weren't the correct weapon for the methods of warfare being developed and carried out at the time.

An interesting, and not very well know fact: The Russians were actually the first person to create what could be considered an 'assault rifle.'

[Dracofyre]

@Dracofyre With the Fedorov Avtomat seeing initial production in 1916 if I remember correctly and seeing limited deployment in World War 1. The Germans tend to receive the most credit (even if it's not correct) for inventing the modern AR concept with their StG 44.

An assault rifle is defined as any man portable, select fire rifle that shoots an intermediate cartridge.

If a weapon shoots a pistol cartridge, it is NOT an assault rifle.

[Dracofyre]

@Dracofyre

first people* 

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@Dracofyre Really? I thought it was the Germans with the STG-44, or the U.S. with the B.A.R and M1 Garand.

[Dracofyre]

@eXpLodingj2ice2

Negative, the Russians had the first one, it's not a very well known rifle though so I really don't get huffy about people having never heard of it. The BAR and the M1 both fire full sized rifle cartridges, while the M1 Garand also is not select fire.

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@Dracofyre The FN FAL is semi-automatic too. And it's labeled as an assault rifle. But guess what, the U.S. was the first because they bought out the Ribeyrolle 1918 rifle.

[Dracofyre]

@eXpLodingj2ice2

1.) The Russians had the US beat by two years with the Federov in 1916

2.) The FN FAL fires a .308 round and in original military configuration is a select fire weapon. The light barrel version recoils like a sonofabitch and is kinda useless when fired in full auto though so it most militaries stopped doing full auto training. Furthermore it's technically classified as a battle rifle due to it firing a 7.62 NATO round and is not an assault rifle.

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@Dracofyre Well played.

[theWWIIfanatic]

@eXpLodingj2ice2

it doesn't. i believe it fires 5.56mm? can someone back me up on this. i believe a 5.56 is a .223?

I believe I am right, but not 100%

[theWWIIfanatic]

@theWWIIfanatic

well, i just watched the beginning of the video, and it did say 5.56.

[blowpenguin]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 wtf ? r u talking about its a 6.8mm

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@blowpenguin ok ok I get it after the ten comments Ive had on this page. god....

[nightember]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 Dude... this thing fires 5.56x45, and soon it will be able to fire hopefully 7.62x51 and 6.8

[eXpLodingj2ice2]

@nightember AL-FUCKIN-RIGHT

[dizralph4u]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 no you dumbass it looks like it has no recoil because the shooter has good control over the gun and the stock design is good for handling recoil.

[Derpmeat08]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 Yeah, he wasent shooting a Bushmaster ACR he was shooting a Glock 19. It's understandable, they do look exactly alike.

[cardiacthapoet]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 lol.....wut?

[theoxtheory]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 Are you retarded?

[IRoGuExP]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 you are retarded buddy.

[MUJUNKY]

@eXpLodingj2ice2 dont let the haters get you down, you didnt say a 9mmx19mm or the 9mm rifle round, so if you feel any better, you may just be misinformed, not a dumbass! plus, youtube has so many arm chair generals, im suprised there isnt a war on outside about stupid shit they say to eachother. i love guns, so i know my small arms pretty well

[AfKman101]

i couln't hear what you were saying at 0:55 you sould put subtitles, but its a request many thanks

[Jesusisyhwh]

Doesn't this have the interchangeable barrel and firing mechanism so that you can put in a what? A 7.62 or something like that?

[jdeluisa]

@Jesusisyhwh There are plans for interchangeable barrels and firing mechanisms with rumors of 6.8 SPC, 6.5 Grendel and some version of 7.62. Still years off I think however due to reliability issues and less public demand than anticipated.

[MrSkillz1971]

@jdeluisa The original design was by Magpul, They had a 7.62x39 setup for it in addition to 5.56, but I guess it never materialized after production rights were sold.

[MrCrimsonLance]

@jdeluisa

I think you're right about the 6.8, im not sure about the 6.5

[strikezero01]

I see... I didn't see this coming.. so it fail cause you abuse her til she break... (Fire it Till it Fails - Bushmaster ACR Multiple Failures to Extract) Lucky I still thinking about it... Magpul ACR sure she is a Pretty modern rifle... and Masochist too!!! XD

[tomtomisdabomb7]

thats super quiet for a gun thats not suppressed



[jdeluisa]

@BobertEntertainment The camera has "auto level" where it tries to make all the audio record at the same intensity. The rifle noise loud and abrupt so the camera over compensates and the sound is cut back too much for a moment. BobertEntertainment is talking about a weapons suppressor.

[22dogcat]

@BobertEntertainment o im used to silencer :)

[22dogcat]

@BobertEntertainment arnt they tha same?

[22dogcat]

it sound like it silieneced

[grogann]

If you changed when he says Rifle to Cock it makes the funniest lines ever

[LabodaKill90]

You sound a lot like semiautoriflelover

[TheMichael1342]

Are you rich or something?? Haha

[talisman9000]

I going to be driving into Santa Fe, New Mexico next month. Can I just pull over in the desert and shoot anywhere or are there designated places?

[demmylowther]

Made in the USA,right? I'm looking at a 2011 gun buyers guide and they price these between $2685-$3061.This is the MSRP.I am impressed.Hardly any muzzle flip.This gun is smooth.Yeah,I see the gun I want next.You get what you pay for.Maybe I'll make up a cardboard sign and stand out in the middle of traffic with the sign saying,I'll work for a Bushmaster ACR,please donate to my gun fund ! Thank you.

[jdeluisa]

@demmylowther Look at some of my other vids. Lots of reliability and extraction issues. Not my frist, second, third or gouty choice.

[demmylowther]

Made in the USA,right?

[Atomicomet]

is this problem soley a bushmaster quality control issue or a design fault

[rtruth15]

Would I be able to get this in california?

[jdeluisa]

@rtruth15 They are selling a California legal version this year. Good luck.

[Mrlouisianaairsoft]

acr all the way

[mannr100]

ACR stands for adaptive combat rifle... The m4 is a sissy compared to the ACR..

The acr is half a pound lighter than the m4.. It also has a folding stock, adjustable cheek weld, quick caliber change parts, ambidextrous controls and much more... The ACR also does not have a charging handle in the back like the ar15/m16

[jdeluisa]

@mannr100 I take it you've owned both, and not just Modern Combat or Airsoft? I can tell you without hesitation, when the shit hits the fan I am grabbing my M4 and not my ACR.

[TheSilentOne50]

@jdeluisa why's that, exactly?

[jdeluisa]

@TheSilentOne50 Because the ACR is an unreliable, overpriced, POS that you can't find parts for if you needed to. My M4 is user serviceable, reliable, and parts can be found practically anywhere on the planet. The ACR is a nice concept, but it needs to go back in the oven for a while

[TheSilentOne50]

@jdeluisa It is overpriced, i'll give you that, but I can't agree it's "unreliable". That's bullshit. It has a self regulating gas piston, so it jams a LOT less. Plus, the M4 will jam. It will jam a LOT.

If you want the feel of the M4 and the reliability of an AK, you should just get an LWRC M6A2, it's a truly badass weapon.

[jdeluisa]

@TheSilentOne50 I have over 10,000 rounds through mine and for the majority of time I have owned the rilfe it has been a jam-o-matic. Bushmaster had it for almost three months last year working on the gas regulator, which by the way is not self-regulating.The LWRC is a much better firearm with quality control that is light years ahead of Shrubmaster. I will stick with my DI M4 though. Your mileage may vary.

[TheSilentOne50]

@jdeluisa Okay.

[TheSilentOne50]

@jdeluisa sorry i sound like an idiot, but what company is "DI"?

[jdeluisa]

@TheSilentOne50 direct impingement like what is found on the current M4. I like the concept of gas impingement because it keeps the bolt carrier assembly cleaner, but I have multiple concerns about it, namely 1) Each system is proprietary – if it breaks, you’re screwed, especially if the company goes out of business. You will have to send it in for service. 2) with the op rod moving back and forth, there is a negative impact on accuracy. 3) it is not always user servicable. Just my 2 cents.

[TheSilentOne50]

@jdeluisa oh shit, i knew that, i thought it was a company. Shit, sorry. Point is, the Self regulating piston keeps the accuracy and it keeps it from jamming. M6 FTW!

[RYARH]

@jdeluisa "manr100" does have a point. If power is an issue, the gun can be chambered to shoot AK47 rounds.

[CoD3fan2]

@jdeluisa well arent they better for different things?

[ATRRiseAgainst]

@jdeluisa All rifles go thru issues, they just need worked out. when all the bugs are worked out this will be a far superior rifle to the m4. ACR is new and just needs more time

[30dynamo]

@mannr100 nope, the ACR stands for advanced combat rifle.

[jdeluisa]

@30dynamo ah, no. The Bushmaster Adaptive Combat Rifle (ACR) is the production name for an updated version of the Masada Adaptive Combat Weapon System. In late January 2008 Bushmaster aquired the production rights for the ACR

[30dynamo]

@jdeluisa okay boy. :)

[30dynamo]

@jdeluisa okay boy. you're right. :)

[MrXXXsteelXXX]

could someone tell me whats diferent between the ACR and the m4, im really curious about those 2

[Rickrolled1231]

what caliber is it?

[MrSeahawk4ever]

@Rickrolled1231 5.56 x 45

[Rickrolled1231]

@MrSeahawk4ever thanks

[ZombieCrazy100]

ThatsMY FABORITE GUN!!1

[livewire322]

Is the bushmaster acr full auto or semi auto?I'd love to own one but I live in Canada and full autos are illegal semi autos on the other hand are not.

[Crow762]

@livewire322 It is semi-auto. In America, the only full-autos civilians can buy are ones made and registered before May 1986.

[cardiacthapoet]

I fired it at the range for the first time a few days ago. The recoil was very balanced and it was easy to get back on target. I kept clocking the lever like a moron whenever i reloaded though and ejected unspent rounds lol.

[zangos15]

how can you get assault rifles as a civilian

[barnetr2]

Wait a sec. How is it that the ACR seems to be working well in this vid, and there appears to be a massive amount of 556 rounds in that bucket that you've gone through? In other videos, the thing jams up in ten rounds or less. What is the deal with the ACR?

[jdeluisa]

@barnetr2 I don't know what happened to it. It seemed to work well for a while than started to fail all the time. I think maybe some of the parts wore, or the op-rod spring softened up. Not sure.

[ToddB987]

Hi there, Great rifle.. I live in New Mexico too. I have a question on where are shooting at? I shoot my Stag Arms at the west mesa range in Albuquerque, but it's very restrictive on firing procedures. Are you shooting on BLM land or something. Please due tell.

Regrads, ToddB

[jdeluisa]

@ToddB987 Hey, Todd. I live in Albuquerque and shoot at Zia. Shoot me a PM and we can head out there if you are interested.

[goofygroova16]

full auto!!!!

[Birdcage67554]

that second click = excellent follow through.. great shooting. definitely understand the fundamentals

[tactical2bagpipes]

good trigger control brother. I am in New Mexico as well.

[ohwhatacereal]

so same cal. as an m4?

[tactical2bagpipes]

@ohwhatacereal yup



[reddrick69]

Why does the trigger reset take as long as it does?

[hockeykid30b]

sounds and funtions alot better then an m4

[jdeluisa]

@hockeykid30b hell no it doesn't!

[INSULTINGKLOWN]

@jdeluisa Can you elaborate? It was created to outperform the M4.

[jdeluisa]

@INSULTINGKLOWN Everybody is trying to build a better mousetrap. I think the ACR is a great concept, but it needs more work. The M16/AR15 platform underwent years of work and fine-tuning to make it what it is today. Few people know that the AK platform underwent several years of tweaks to get it right. Just needs more time in the oven. I bought one of the first ones sold and am paying the price.

[hockeykid30b]

@jdeluisa really?
