Just a little gun-nuttery. XD Marlin 3040 (.30-30, NOT .30-40 Krag), Carbon 15 (.223), and GLOCK 23 (.40). And then I go on to mention how weapons are represented incorrectly in games (specifically STALKER and Halo). I need to make a video dedicated entirely to that -- weapons represented improperly in video games and movies.

Note: I'm explaining some details as if I was speaking to laymen (no offense to those who are), so that's why I mention the difference between magazine tubes and box magazines. To some, those details would be obvious, but I'm not explaining them to those who already know.

Hey Iggy, I noticed at 2:49 the left STANAG pretty much covers up the bolt release lever. Do you usually use the charging handle instead of the bolt release?

LOL, isn't it crazy that I've seen this video like 20 times and yet I have no shortage of comments?

BTW did you ever end up buying a scope for that Marlin?

[IggyHazard]

Hrm. Usually use single mags. Only got the one clamp. Usually use bolt release. No scope for Marlin. Prefer iron sights on .30-30.

How do you hit the bolt release with a southpaw stance? Do you do the reacharound? I guess you took the scope mounts off? I seem to recall it without them in your levergun video.

[IggyHazard]

Correct on the levergun. I can reach the bolt release with my left index finger with a left-hand hold (unless I'm using clamped mags and have the right mag inserted). Otherwise, I can use my support (right) hand.

Hey bud, where do you live.... because I'm teaming up with you whenever the apocalypse happens!

JK, like the vids. I wish I had your voice.

[IggyHazard]

Thoinks!! XD That's a combination of "thanks" and "boink," by the way (just because the word "boink" is funny).

I live in Indiana. A former red state that turned purple and sold out to the internationalist machine.

Hopefully, GSC listened to your complaints about unnecessary cocking, the guns don't do it anymore in either CS and CoP. In ShoC the unnecessary cocking broken all effort of being stealthy because it's so loud that you enemy heard you from quite a distance.

Also, you may not like this what I'm about to say but: Stoner based rifles may be versatile but they aren't the best option for heavy military use. Their direct impingement gas system is their weakest point.

[Otacon237]

Ah. I guess you can always start out with the right mag in since you'd need to use the charging handle the first time anyway.

[Otacon237]

Ah.

aftermarket. Got it from a local gun shop.
