Not sure if anyone else noticed, but IV8888 went from never mentioning Geissele, to basically being their spokesman overnight. Very disingenuous and not obvious at all
 Thats coming from a Geissele rail fanboy.

Not bad. I've watched Metalman abuse an AR until the upper was smoking at both ends of the gas tube, smoke pouring out of the handguards.

Nah, if you watch the two mag dumps before it came off you can see the gap with the barrel threads exposed and the gap increasing before it finally disappears. I gotta wonder if he had a crush washer or index rings on it. Video resolution wasn't quite high enough for me to make out any rings vibrating around in the gap. Still, only 870 rounds before catastrophic failure eh? Shoulda bought Intacto.

He's crazy. I'm not sure how far the camera was away from him but even at that distance I could clearly see the barrel glowing orange through the rail. If it's glowing, isn't it near the point of melting and drooping?

Ate a pretty good volume of steel case before it blew up.
It would have really sucked if he broke the registered lower. |

Also it looked pretty clean for being at least 28 years old. |

Stainless barrels have poor heat resistance for this kind of firing schedule.
