The Czech Unicorn LMG: A Squad Support CZ-2000 (YouTube cut) 

Is this a real new youtube policy ? You can't show guns being shot anymore ?

@@danp9977 I doubt it. Certainly haven't heard anything about it, other than people speculating in the comments.

Can someone explain the RU-vid policy and how it relates to educational/historical videos on firearms? I don't get what the problem is and every time I ask I get attacked like I'm defending something I don't even understand. I am not defending the policy; I don't even get the policy. Each time I ask this I get a highly charged response that seems like a bad faith explanation of a policy that's more political than informative. My understanding is the magazine size has something to do with it, but I there are tons and tons of videos with people shooting select-fire weapons with hi-cap mags. To reiterate: I'm not defending the RU-vid policy or any policy for that matter. I'd just like an explanation that tries to explain the policy from Alphabet's perspective (as if a lawyer were explaining it to a skeptical judge). It seems like, whatever the policy, there should be exceptions for a video that is educational. I've been a long time fan of this channel and how Ian avoids lecturing on politics or policy. Whatever one thinks of firearms and their role in our society, they do exist and they do have an impact on us and our history...for the good or bad or neither.

@@WmSrite-pi8ck ,​ @Dan P , @Silly Pillow, Despite not being listed in the firearms policy, my understanding is that the issue is shooting full auto and/or "high capacity magazines". Between this being an LMG and having a drum, I suspect that is why Ian isn't able to post the full video

@@WmSrite-pi8ck YT is not very happy because few years ago there was an active shooter in YT headqaurters and because recent unfortunate incidents

Thank you for your service. Was wondering about that 5.56 drum.

"Czech Browning" Václav Holek hated drums...

@@nickaschenbecker9882 There are plenty of drum mags that function perfectly fine. They're just often (but not always) finicky to load and really awkward to carry a bunch of. The last one is just a negative of drums in general and it doesn't matter how good everything else is they always end up being kind of eh as a total exclusive package. They're really best when you need a larger capacity everything else be damned (early aircraft guns mostly).

youtube is hypocritical and selective af with its moderation. horrible videos that feature exploitation of children are kept up while a video with a lil range shooting is randomly subject to censorship

I bet its because he showed the trigger group and how it works.

RU-vid is cancer. I would drop them in a second if there was a viable alternative.

@@ekscalybur There are tons of videos on youtube showing that and full auto shooting in the same video.

@@reliantncc1864 He mentioned the best alternative at the start of the video.

@@bimmypedersen8412 my customer was planning to make a reproduction of it. He apparently turned away from it. I suggest it’s because this is the most messed up AK74 of all time. The parts count is about double and production time probably 4x of the predecesor. The Thai contract was probably evaluation batch but I wasn’t digging any deeper for the info.

The policy does not state that shooting full auto guns is prohibited. It forbids content intended to SELL certain items (including high capacity magazines) or to otherwise instruct users on manufacturing firearms or converting semi auto firearms into full auto. The example that forbids holding or handling a firearm applies to LIVESTREAMS, not recorded content. RU-vid does state, however, that the provided list therein is not exhaustive. support.google.com/youtube/answer/7667605?hl=en

@@ddimoulis The issue with this is that RU-vid frequently will make up rules as they go along, and are indiscriminate in application of said rules. Policy means squat to them, especially when their moderation has a hate boner for certain subjects.

Mr. Šlechta, please check your business email. Thanks

I mean they ripped off the Vz26 first 😂

Early dragunov rifles had bayonet lugs too if I remember correctly

Im staying to think that there's a bayonet attachment for everything except the bayonet itself

@@jamesdc9595 Those were chinese

@@Pyrochemik007 the Type 99 most certainly is not

@@nickaschenbecker9882 The archers fingers is a good story but isn’t true its a Victorian invention us Brits have a lot of them, if the French wanted to stop captured archers from loosing at them again they would have just killed them or just chopped off the hand much easier.

Except for the drum that somebody spilled a bunch of jam into

I couldn't watch it, kept stopping and audio was all over the place. Strangely l got an old Christmas ad for coke that was a few decades old. Really not sure how lan can try to sell subscribers on joining Utreon with a straight face, it's kind of pathetic for a video platform.

It worked fine for me, though the quality selection is badly designed. I also did not use the progress bar. I am ok with old ads, actually kinda prefer them.

I got a 1998 Simpsons-based commercial for Intel Pentium 2 processors.

Decades old ads? How does that work? Who's paying Utreon to play them?

Just the 75rd drum mag alone would sell like crazy

Is that why JTube hates it?

@@FirstLast_Nba 🤨

@@AlexS-zr2nb You're probably substantially underestimating how expensive the drum would be.

I would definitely pick one of these up. They're very distinctive

*WWKD

I was thinking the same thing, maybe faster than the mags can fully present the next round.

Becoming?

@@southerncoast822 Sorry............."IS"!!!!!

They would fall under a “newsworthy” exception I think. It’s been a while since I’ve seen the internal policies regarding this stuff and it shifts weekly. RU-vid’s policies are by their very nature a double standard. They’re completely reactive to the worlds events and often overlap in such a way where these ridiculous situations occur or there are huge gaps that allow truly heinous stuff to be allowed remain on the platform. Long story short, it’s a mess and they slap it together.

@@iatsd I'm pretty sure, correct me if I'm wrong, new corporations don't pay YT a fee either... Double standards here have nothing to do with paying for a service or not. If two entities have a free service and one gets different treatment than the other it's still a double standard. And pointing out an inconsistency doesn't mean I'm "crying over it".

@@iatsd It's funny that you are crying over their comment. I guess it's appropriate that you got triggered in the comment section of a RU-vid channel devoted to guns.

@@iatsd I never advocated for pressing legal action against YT so I don't know why you think anything you just said has any relevance with what my original point is. There is a double standard, regardless of whether YT legally can do it is irrelevant.

@@iatsd You didn't make any valid points in the comment I responded to. None. Not one. Zero. If Ian, or any other content creator, or a random individual in the comment section feels that RU-vid policy is problematic they have a right to comment on it. Paying for hosting is not a prerequisite to commenting, as evidenced by you having commented without paying for hosting. If your comment doesn't qualify as "crying" then the original comment doesn't either. Go, cry more.

Me too

Probably nothing. RU-vid enforces its community guidelines randomly, arbitrarily, and inconsistently. They'll demometize or strike a video that does nothing wrong while leaving obvious violations up, just because the algorithm or the person checking it was having a bad day.

@@Bacteriophagebs With the rising usage of algorithm's I am in doubt if even RU-vid truly understands how their algorithm actually works. Reminds me of the video CGP Grey made of AI and how said AI would sort pictures of the number 3 and a bee.

RU-vid demonetizes and has strict rules of firearms content, no full auto fire, no bigger than 10 round magazines, if you do either of these things your video is demonetized because RU-vid hates firearms

Probably due to the "high capacity magazine" drum. Anything 30rds or more YT gets their panties in a knot about.

Probably

RU-vid's investors and advertisers do not want guns related to their commercials and advertisements. So rather than have a system which showed gun-related advertisements to gun-related video's which would be a far better option, we have this nebulous nonsense ruleset. As for how the system works I do not know because the system seems *HIGHLY SELECTIVE* about who gets their video's demonetized or removed.

@@LazyLifeIFreak They could be silicon valley is full of anti-gun types. Nevermind they live in gated communities protected by men with guns

@@LazyLifeIFreak If they don't want guns related to their advertisements and commericals, they can always go somewhere else. Gun products on gun videos makes more sense anyway.

I suspect youtube restraining non-american gun manufacturers. Especialy now that Nato realised they need to adopt stronger ammo like 7,62mm due to progress in bulletproof vests, in which CZ has huge lead.

It could be because of some of RU-vid's policies, I believe they dub a machine gun as anything that can fire in full auto and if it can accept a 30 round mag, I'm not too sure on this so I'd have to fact check this.

I only had problem with the sound.

Fine for me

I didn't have any problems with it at 1080 on phone even

@@stevenicholas5651 You are mostly correct but it would still be worth Ian doing a video on it because there are different ways of measuring the bullet diameter (or, rather, some cartridges use one of the dimensions of the bore as the designation and some use the outer diameter of the cartridge case)

A number of us have been lobbying for a "Forgotten Ammo" series, where Ian would explore the people, history and details around the evolution of ammunition. I'd expect it to include the evolution leading to well known/leading-to modern calibers.

@@stevenicholas5651 The first number isn't necessarily the bullet diameter. For example 7.62x25 Tokarev has a bullet diameter of 7.92 and a barrel land diameter of 7.62mm. For that specific cartridge the manufacturer of the ammunition/gun decided to name it based on the land diameter and not the groove diameter. It depends from manufacturer to manufacturer. Similarly, .223 Remington is actually .224" in diameter, not .223, the 7.5x55 Swiss has a bullet diameter of 7.78mm, and 9mm Makarov has a bullet diameter of 9.27mm but a barrel land diameter of 9.00mm.

@@stevenicholas5651 I honestly made up the round, I am not good with gun calibers but thank you!

I think the 9mms of the world videos is a good start because 1 9mm does not equate to everyone's 9mm

Is there a "y" in the day?

Now I may be wrong (and someone correct me if I am), but I think if you were to ‘rewind’ the drum...if it’s the style I’m thinking of... it would also pull the follower back, which of course means the rounds aren’t going to feed at all.

@@AtholAnderson Could wind the 'base' the spring sits on, this would tension it more and push the cartridges up with more force

Been there, done that

They can either be a bulletin board or a publisher... knowing the difference and why is what separates the lemmings from the sheep...
