Suppressor Meltdown

looks like the barrel and gas system's not having a good day either!! 😵

Funny to see how reluctant they are to finish the belt; don’t blame them! 
 

Wonder whether they were able to remove the broken bits from the barrel - probably welded fairly tightly!

The barrel should be OK, as long as it will come off the weapon. Not so sure about the gas plug though 😬.

Ranges close in 5 minutes. "Expend ammunition, Rapid Fire" springs to mind.

Other than that??

My question exactly. $1400 US suppressor and, at current market price, about $750 US in ammo.

Must be nice.~Andrew

Barrels are relatively cheap and easily replaced. The suppressor is the pricey unit! I've watched this video a few times. Still can't fathom it.~Andrew

Having watched a few US YouTube gun channels, a lot of stuff just gets done ‘because you can’. Logic often doesn’t get much of a look in.

Twas just an observation guys - thats all

[Chanonry]

Possibly because they monetised the video ? If a youtube video makes between $3,400 and $40,000 per million views and this was watched more than 52 million times then the dude made between $176,800 and $2,080,000.  Having said that, I didn't see any ads so maybe a missed opportunity.  Not sure if youtube allow monetisation on shooting vids anyway.

But $2,500 to get your name in front of 52m people sounds pretty cheap - 0.005 cents per view
