Not sure those tests mean anything, but it was cool to watch.

Super Dooooody went to 901 and the gas tube went, not the barrel.

Would be cool if the barrel profile was accounted for in there, somehow.

Colt has entered the chat
 M4 vs. M4a1 carbine; destructive testing At some point physics comes into play. If you run something beyond spec, you can expect failure at some point. Engineering is always about trade offs. |

I wouldn’t expect my Noveske stainless lightweight barrel to hold up as long as a chrome lined hammer forges bull barrel, nor do I need it to.

I am surprised that it blew the barrel out rather than the gas-tube. Do they use some sort of inconel toob? I suppose the DD blew out the same way though. |

Furthermore I'm a suburbanfag so when I get access to land I GO FUCKING HARD. The last trip, between me, beitodesstrafe and BigMan74 we sent over 10k rounds downrange in 6-7 hours |

The Instagram/FB wants you to think it's not normal to just dump rounds at trash.
It is normal, it's fun, and every guy who is cool has done it. It's it cool to become better? Of course it is. Is it cool to improve your gear? Of course. But you're a giant faggot if you don't like turning money into noise. It is THE American pastime. Cars, guns, rockets, whatever. We turn money into noise here |

I can't stand channels like that. He talks crap about Daniel defense on how they are unsafe because he uses them improperly to destruction when barrel profiles and the ar15 platform was not designed for this kind of sustained fire. There is really no value in these videos as it proves nothing.
