I demoed a Dead Air silencer on my self built AK at the Red October event and it worked great! Happy to see Brownells give the AK some love.Welcome back!
Beautiful! TFB TV has a man who teaches some great lessons on guns from the region! Awesome video and *VERY* glad that you are still posting great content! Amazing rifle and silencer!
Long time customer here. Subscribed today, just because RU-vid tried to kick your channel. I agree with Stephen B, great video for a triumphant return.
Khyber Pass (Khay-ber Pass) is a famous Place in Pakistan. There are many, many local Gun Smiths making Gun Variants from all around the world. Now you Know,
First I'd like to say congratulations on coming back. Second thing, what a fantastic first video back by reviewing an AK with a silencer. I'm sure RU-vid is thrilled with this first video. And last thing is why didn't you show the shooting footage of it? He said he had some great shooting footage so I was assuming that we would see it.
Did it? I still have a couple Romanian guard AK kits sitting around. One is earmarked for a Tabuk style (I also have a Yugo M70 kit which is also for a Tabuk style). Then the other has some great trench art making it a great kit for battlefield pickup style AK.
Usually YT claimed a gun channel violated YT term of agreement. Yet when Brownells went through all their videos and did not find anything remotely close to any violation, YT refused to respond to why they shut down the Brownells channel. But because of the outrage from our 2A people, YT quietly reinstated the Brownells channel. I suppose there are some agreements between Brownells and YT that Brownells cannot go to the press about the reinstatement or else you hear about it on all the gun websites.
Neither Brownells or YT is willing to make a statement. YT realized they stirred the hornet nest and Brownells is a business and it is willing to keep quiet since it got its channel back from the YT commies. YT can ban smaller gun channel but they had to step back when they tried to bully a major retailer.
Hah, lol. Americans. No, this thing has absolutely nothing to do with Khyber Pass or the cottage industry of gunsmithing going on there. And, this pattern was _never_ even particularly popular among the locals. Never was, is not today and won't ever be. :D What they want is a boom stick that has the fun switch, and literally have no ability to even aim or test fire the stuff they buy. So, the guns smiths don't make functional sights. They think they can test the barrel by sticking a unfired bullet into the mouth of the chamber, and if it goes in as it's supposed to when headspaced appropriately, the customer that doesn't know the first thing about actually using a rifle or how it functions, thinks the barrel is loose. So, what they tend to do there is, since the most difficult part of the whole thing is a barrel, is to take military surplus barrels that are perfectly fine and good, and then butcher the damn crown on that so a loose bullet won't drop in as it's supposed to. They're barbarians that ruin perfectly good iron, and if they had an ounce of self-respect or basic literacy and culture respecting it not pointless machismo that makes rifles that can't hit a broad side of a barn from the inside, they'd actually be worth something as a gun manufacturing culture. No, this pattern, especially since you've gone out of your damn way to pimp it with a suppressor and an adjustable gas system, is literally the work of Spetsnaz armorers equipping specialist shock troops, that actually know how the rifle functions and how to shoot with it, to operate in an environment where the range of the 5.45x39mm ain't going to cut it since the only people who can actually hit you shooting at you are running bolt-action 7.62x54mmR Nagants and SMLE copies, not this "khyber pass" junk and where there's too much UV for the damn soviet era poor composites to take the damn sun light, it's got a wooden hand-guard to boot. It's something someone local thought was cool, and maybe had one or two made for his personal use and/or they were actual captured guns left there by the soviets. And, here we have the american, distorting actual history by assigning nonsensical terms to things that don't exist and spreading it's own variety of anti-intellectual illiteracy on the goddamn internet. No, that's not a Khyber Pass anything, it's Soviet AKM with a AK74 pattern receiver, chambered in 7.62x39mm by specialist operator request and equipped to their personal standards and intended for professional special forces work. FFX, do you people even watch what the damn russians say about their own stuff they make? Or, for example what they have actually observed in the field, coming from said area, and what that term "Khyber Pass" means in the firearms industry in the civlized world? No, you don't It means it's a piece of scrap iron ruined by philistines. That's the "Khyber Pass" variant of the AK according to the firearms experts and mechanical engineers of the Kalashinikov Group that actually made these specialist variants as well. Very much, like there is no such thing as a "Krinkov" anywhere other than the imagination of the american illiterate gun owner, is this Spetsnaz Afganistan Special only a "Khyber Pass" variant an actual thing, in the minds of such idiots. Not a term anyone in any respectable company actually involved with making guns for people who practice marksmanship or have a infantry rifleman doctrine beyond "spray and pray" and "superior accuracy through increased rate of fire", would ever use for anything other than a synonym for literal scrap that needs to be completely smelt in a forge into base steel, and re done from a literal atomic level, before it'll actually serve the function of a firearm. Nah. This is Bullshit, with a capital B. And you should know it.
I got to laughing when he said that they needed a low back pressure silencer so they created the PBS1 but earlier in the vid he said it was a design build by the soviets... Lol... They already figured it out yall just pretty much pulled a Chinese Copy lol.
