          I am 55, a former marine, fired from everything that is in service with the squad. And I don’t know this dude and he doesn’t care for me. In fact - what the hell is he doing? What is the meaning of this action?

            He shoots at AK.
            The point is to shoot from something at something. And since shooting at the same thing is boring (and at cars, safes, armored cars, etc., etc.) - he already shot, you can watch it on the channel) - sometimes you have to come up with such things as you see in the video .

      And that's for sure Russian? Maybe a Soviet or some other with a plywood butt?

        Is this Russian exactly? Maybe a Soviet or some other with a plywood butt?

        Do you think the Soviet is worse than the Russian, or something I misunderstood.

          In my opinion, AKM was not produced in Russia. Years of production 1959 - 1977

        Definitely not Soviet or Russian. There are visible hallmarks that we never put. If judged by a star, then a Chinese or Yugoslav. You can search on the net whose stigma, but laziness and unprincipled.

        This is called humor.
        And this is much cooler than shooting a "net-netting", as our "military acceptance" recently did. So on that "acceptance" - there is an unreal heap of budget money, and two and a half viewers are watching it. This content is filmed by a US veterinarian on his own, and is watched by tens of millions of people around the world. Feel the difference.

          But to see, to check how many people are watching our military-patriotic programs in any way?
          We don’t have enough creativity, it’s expensive, it’s also understandable, but not a few people watch them, EVERYWHERE.
          When they are simply mistaken, the identity is not comme il faut, when they lie without measure .....

            About the chain-link ... it turned out not interesting, although informative. who also came up with the idea of ​​advertising the grid as .... but how, a bulletproof or anti-shatter tool?
            Confirm or refute what is stated by the manufacturer is very useful.
            Children look, then ask .... you need to know, and not talk from the bulldozer.
            About Kalash, it's interesting to watch, but practically useless! Although my "why" is also asked about this !!! and here real, practical experience is useless, because they are completely interested in something else!
            Paradox .... but they are also not interested, tell, explain and that's it.

      I know who AK yuzal has been for many years, even over the hill where an opportunity will buy or a clone, even Galil.
      Just a person is confident in the reliability of the mechanism.
      Saiga is more popular with private security companies; after service, a person is almost ready to handle weapons, especially if they are familiar.

      He would have funding and access like a "gravy acceptance", that would be a show. And so, it remains to be hoped that the leader of the "gravy acceptance" will be crushed by some technique.

        Matt is doing fine. But we would have to think to whom we give a ton of our money, so that they would make a zilch out of them instead of suitable content. Or does someone here believe that in Russia there are no talented guys who can remove something more interesting than the sad slut that we see on our screens?

        his income from YouTube is comparable to the income (not with the salary, but with the income, that is, salary plus "rent") of the director of a medium-sized transport company: money for views plus for advertising.
        Channels with approximately 100 thousand subscribers and an average number of views of 10 thousand / video take about 80-130 thousand rubles for integrated advertising - for a brief integration in two videos of 30 seconds.
        and now look at how many subscribers Matt's channel has ("some kind of ranch" - I don't remember which one - in short there are several million, the "Zebra" channel simply translates his episodes for the Russians ... unfastening him a percentage) and see how many views the videos collect.
        from this we can understand where Ivangay (a Moscow blogger) at the age of 14 was Lamborghini and Ferrari
        This Matt has about the same money.
        The richest blogger PuDiPai (from Sweden like) has from two to ten million
