    Would have been even more painful if Hadji was closing in for the kill.

    Food for AR bashers.

    Seriously, double feeds are a BITCH with them, and this is the worst case scenario.

    The caption says something along the lines of "I sometimes use inertia for a quick fix" which leads me to believe it's not the first time his stock has hit the ground that hard. It was probably a nice piece of equipment once...

    He should be gunning with something Soviet if he likes to abuse his gear like that.

    looks like the entire group was mentally deficient.

    theyre lucky no one got killed with that moronic drill.

    2 ppl, running simultaneously, run forward to the rifle line and fire, then again forward to the pistol line and fire.

    then you get a situation like in the video, where one is slower. the other guy, who didnt have a malfunction, had ran forward, in front of the guy htat was still firing, in front of the line of fire, to fire his pistol.

    one of the most idiotic things ive ever saw.

    I'm betting they weren't exactly sober either and half the tattoo's they had were probably misspelled. If they were ex military I bet none of them were ever on the front line or ever got above E-3. On the other hand they would keep the enemy so amused the rest of us can just save our ammo while they do their 3 Stooges routine.

    That's how you clear a stuck case in a FAL. It's called a "po-go" (as in a po-go stick). Of course the stock is a bit more robust on a FAL than an AR. Real dumb-ass material there.

    Ouch!


    Well that little clearing method didn't pan out too well.

    It's been my experience that beating and banging on guns rarely turns out well.

    Close the stock first dummy. It won't break then.

    And for those of you bitching about how he is clearing that jam, it is the proper method for clearing a double feed that won't release by dropping the mag and pulling the charging handle. I have a field manual somewhere with picture instructions of just that method.

    As you can see it works wonders too!

    Why I wouldn't be a bit surprised to find out the fellow who mangled his fingers heard about it in manual.





    Might have even had pictures too!
