Full Auto Fun: AR-18 and select fire AR-15

[drewnickel]

I'd like to get a DIAS for an ar-15, what is the correct process for getting a pre-1986 autosear that is already registered with the BATF? I want to build a wilson combat ar-15 that has select fire capabilities and a gas piston, and know that you can not build a machine gun, but once you own the registered auto sear, you can use it in any receiver that is full auto capable.

[HarleyMorrow1]

i have no clue what gun is better i want my daddy to get me a ar 15 or ar 18 idk which is better for me and wont pull back alot

[sladerfoster]

WATCH IN HIGH QUALITY! 480p...oohh old youtube

[R1Beowulf]

AR18 WHAT CALIBER IS THAT .223?

[pogomonkeys]

now 480p is high quality.

[sonofrock97]

wats the difference between the car-15 and the m16a1?

[FlyboyHelosim]

@sonofrock97 The CAR-15 is much shorter than an M16A1 and has a higher rate-of-fire.

[NKA23]

PLUS it´s much louder...in the Vietnam war many officers supplied with a CAR-15 complained about that.

[Quinnstafer]

I meant the AR-18

[Quinnstafer]

This AR-18 Was In The Old

S.W.A.T.

[CharlieDoan]

M4 not reach our enemies I got standard M16A2

[oeyesea]

I believe the AR18 was conceived to be a less costly version of the AR15. I think the early M16 users in Nam would have preferred the 18 over the poorly introduced 16. Although the 16 is actually a good design it was not built, loaded & maintained the way the designer specified which made the perfect storm of failure.

[marineooo5]

Nowadays ya gotta have a type 3 to own full auto I believe

[MrHongKongBuffet]

Forget all of the arguments about "which is more powerful" or "which is more accurate." This isn't Black Ops. Two weapons with the same length barrel firing the same cartridge are going to be very, very similar ballistically.

So here's my question for the video poster: between the AR-18 and the selective fire AR-15, which did you prefer? Not even which one was better, I'm just wondering which one was more fun to shoot.

[isdfgbsdf]

What state are you guys in, love the snow!!

[muttatdesk]

does having a full auto permit alow you to convert your semi to full?

[ermaslv44]

ar-18 > ar-15

[emasterpiece15]

is the ar-15 more accurate?

[Breakneckhydra1]

@emasterpiece15

They are the same in accuracy.

Why would they be different when they fire the same bullet?

[emasterpiece15]

@Breakneckhydra1 the design counts. the cartridge doesn't say everything

[Breakneckhydra1]

@emasterpiece15

What do you mean "the design counts"

If 2 guns have the same barrel length and cartridge, there is no "more accurate"

One can have better placed control's, or be more durable

The first AR had what looked like an 18 or 20 inch barrel, and the second had what looked like a 14.5

so in terms of powder burn, the long barrel adds more velocity to the bullet, so it goes farther

But as for the so called "accuracy", the bullet goes where you aim if you do it correctly

[emasterpiece15]

@Breakneckhydra1 Straight-line stock and ghost ring sights for example

[Breakneckhydra1]

@emasterpiece15

It still doesn't make the bullet itself more accurate.

The gun is only as good as a shooter.

Any given day anyone can shoot a gun with "accuracy".

[emasterpiece15]

@Breakneckhydra1 that's obvious. i just wanted to know with wich one its EASIER to put the bullet on the center of a target

a standard full lenght AR-15 or a standard full lenght AR-18

[stridingshadow]

@Breakneckhydra1 Sadly this is not true. Some weapons are inherently less accurate because of their mechanisms. For instance in the AK-47 (and all its offspring designs) the bolt carrier is set off the barrel axis, thus during the weapon's cycle a lot of vibration is transmitted to the barrel causing it to oscillate and decreasing its accuracy. This is a factor independent from barrel lenght and quality, ammo type and quality and others like stock design.

[Iwent2Jared]

"So i gotta get a can now... thats my... uhhhhhh....."

What the fuck were you guys talking about?

[Breakneckhydra1]

@Iwent2Jared

"Can" is a nickname for a silencer / suppressor.

[StaffSergeantPepper]

lol what is the name of the rear iron sight used on the car-15 in black ops? they're too open for magpul

[Imnothecrazyone]

Did anybody else hear something like a bullet zinging? Is someone shooting at the cameraman?

[tfoshohoe]

love the ar 18 ar180 over all ar15

[MastuhShayke]

its called and nfa tax stamp u can get full auto

[suferwill808]

@187Nikk You can but theres more paper work and you have to bring all your info instead of a id or drivers license

[d3f4c3d]

0:9 ricochet ?

[jediguardian10]

is the ar-18 good? they didnt go into full production so its hard to find em now adays.

[kjsh987]

well the same it happens here.

[mydogisskip]

IRA gun.

[yokhomano]

nice control

[DevastatedX]

never herd of a ar-18 but it looks badass nice

[TheXtro101]

@DevastatedX

It was an assaultrifle way before you were born.Designed back in the early 1960's(almost 50 years ago).

Have you seen the 1984 movie,"The Terminator",starring Arnold S. before he became the State of Ca. "Governator"?The scenes w/ the AR-18; in the gunstore,the police station shootout and when he goes to that motel.

[DevastatedX]

@TheXtro101 yeah i seen terminator so long ago don't remeber seeing that weapon though

[isaiahman1234567]

thos are verey nice... and i like your 590

[markbotv3]

the denizens of chicago need to go out and buy two or three of these before the libs find a loop hole

[tatester95]

memphis police are gunna start carrying these

[lindsay1ish]

where was this video shot at looks familar

[MrEchopapa]

@lindsay1ish, looks like Blooming Grove Pennsylvania to me.

[TBS30STM]

Bad Company 2 really did get the sounds realistic lol

[niceman98able]

nerd

[TBS30STM]

@niceman98able why am i a nerd for stating a point?

wow i dared to relate a video game to reality, get over it dickhead

[mmttjones]

@MikeofWyoming

Damn right! All i saw was arnold with an ar18

And a spas 12

[MikeofWyoming]

A full auto AR-18....The Terminator sure enjoyed using it on the police station!

[xmasman101]

Olive Oil needs Popeye to hold that gun

[throatkutter]

He didn't flinch (lean/lunge forward) with the pump shotgun on the last trigger pull. GOOD JOB!!

[bmzaron1]

dude what ur mouth

[thedarrenpeters]

Legal Machine guns are exempt from NFA Short barrel registration requirements. Semi auto is not exempt. I make both at my business.

Nice burst control.

[guitrich]

To install a barrel shorter than 16", one will need to meet NFA requirement, i.e. apply for an SBR stamp from the ATF.

[CoolConejo]

Yeah, most Ar-15/M-16 Rifle's allow you to swap the Top receiver. So you can put like a 18Inc barrel and then swap it to a 15 inch barrel. It's like having several Rifles in 1, It's very handy.

[usernametroubles]

one of the many things i love about my ar-15

[guitrich]

Young man with the sunglasses showed good form and good gunhandling skills. Not the typical youtube. You must have gotten some training somewhere.

[MolonLabe84]

yes, nice stances.

[ToobeYoo]

That had some reverb to it heh, entertaining echo.

[dp665]

whats the quality of armalites ar18s??? i am debating on buying one but do not know how good quality and durability they are

[Alexn1067]

ar-18s were designed in the 1960's to compete with the Ak-47.

so based on that and from what I've heard its a very good rifle

but its not as well known as other designs.

[FreebieStuffNOW]

They're OK , i'm looking at one too. Construction is below the AR , as it was designed to be produced/sold in US friendly countries that couldn't tool up for m16/AR configurations, this really never happened due to the US producing a very abundant number of m16s.

[themovieman1]

nice vid, he has good fire/scope control+fast reload, props for skill.

[kjsh987]

if a guy enters in your home and you kill him with one of those, you go to jail right?

[87bu11seye87]

If my life is immediately threatened, I am justified to use deadly force. I won't be held criminally liable if law enforcement determines it was legitimate self defense.

I don't own the full auto rifles in the video. In the US sale of new production full automatic firearms was banned in 1986, so any full autos for sale must be "pre-ban" (made before 1986), and since there are a limited number out there, they are very expensive (and I can't afford them).

They are legal to own and use though.

[Bigboomer]

Always remember the lowflash load :) No good when your both blind and your putting rounds down a hallway / doorway when you can't see.

How many robbers break in day light ? :P

VERY nice video though, love the rifles, too bad our laws prevent owning them. Kind of sucks, but with ALL the crazies actually out there, it's probably for the better.

[usernametroubles]

you'd be surprised about how many burglaries happen during daylight. think about it: most people sleep at night. where do people sleep? in their home. so if you break in at night, chances are people will be home. during the day people are at work, school, running errands, etc.

[Bigboomer]

Ya. but the low flash will still be effective in the daylight. If you had a normal load at night time you'd be screwed

[Vexzm]

@87bu11seye87 so even if you do not have the appropriate gun liscence to own a full auto rifle if it is pre-ban 1986 you can legally own it?

[Breakneckhydra1]

@Vexzm

There is no "gun license"

[Vexzm]

@Breakneckhydra1 i think you need a class 3 or class c lisence to own 1 right?cuz u cant just own a fully automatic weapon

[Breakneckhydra1]

@Vexzm

Nope, you only need a class 3 FFL license to be a DEALER and sell them.

Anyone can buy a full auto with no criminal record, enough money, and time.

You pay for the gun (usually they are start at around 8,000$ because it has to be pre-86 so they are rare)

Pay the $200 ATF tax

Get it transferred to a dealer near you

And start your 6 months of paper work / waiting period

Unless you live in a state like California that doesn't grant you the freedoms you are entitled to as a citizen

[Vexzm]

@Breakneckhydra1 mk well thanks can you just buy the parts to make a weapon full auto or is that considered constructing a fully automatic weapon?

[peptopro17]

@87bu11seye87 1996

[SHvar]

@kjsh987 If you kill someone in a legit self defence situation with any firearm its the same, also the same if you use a baseball bat, ball point pen, a sheet of paper, a drinking straw, or claw hammer.

[BRENTZ40]

@kjsh987 In mexico the law protect more criiminals than victims.

[Shipwreck76]

@kjsh987 

[happycamper777]

@kjsh987 - Nope, you can use a class 3 weapon for defense. I heard a story in February about an H&K Sales rep, had an MP5 demo gun in his house, guy broke in, sales rep (good guy) shot him up. No problems :)

[cv0lv0g0]

@kjsh987 castle-law is diffident for each state

[t3374]

@kjsh987  no its for your protection in ur own home

[budbrother]

waste of bullets, didnt see one hit

[DobermansRock]

Rock on AR-180/18 The IRA needs ya....

[akkid89]

FU AROCK!

[sniper034]

Thats AROCK? I remember seeing something about him on AR15. (com). Some guy had that name written on a box of some Wolf ammunition.
