big daddy unlimited is the Costco of the gun world

I like Mike, although I watch fewer of his videos now that it's all "300blk vs a cat on meth"

Lately I've enjoyed some videos by those dudes out in Utah (I think) who sling real estate as their main job. Forget their names.

Right. And it’s 6000 rounds out of one gun. If someone is shooting that much then they normally have multiple guns so it would extend the time it would take to get 6000 rounds in one of them.

Plus that’s $2500+ in ammo. Again, if they are shooting that much they will probably want to upgrade from a PSA. Or they could at least afford to get a new barrel and BCG.

And the “Duty” thing is overblown. The military isn’t using PSA, and most law enforcement (outside of special duty officers) isn’t ever going to shoot near enough to worry about it either.

I think his point is for 99% of people, that $300 upper is fine. If you buy a gun for work, maybe give yourself the best chance of it working when it needs to. Everyone getting bent out of shape over him saying duty grade seems stupid. His biggest points are always buy what you can actually afford instead of going into debt and train as much as you can. Seems reasonable to me.

who buys a gun for work. Most people where a gun is necessary, the weapon is issued.

He should have done that with PSA's 14.5 CHF barreled upper.

Ha tacp pj jtac are all a bunch of gold spoon fed white collar weenies.

They are very well trained and experts in what they do but they do not fight lol. Everyone I no will grudgingly admit that that is not their specialty.. They are athletic dainty nerds that will not be there when going gets rough it’s just not what they do

That’s not the gun you want. Look at other elite u it’s and they have a choice of weapons for given mission. If your issued a m4 and that all you get no optic selection no suppression no choice of cartridge types bc it’s only one rifle nah. Go buy what you no you will need and the paperwork will get done.

Lmfao I have heard stories of some bamfs that used to take their favorite hunting rifles to war, aka red dot lever actions etc each guy had the firearm he used like it was an extension of his body..


I never seen any of that shite in real life though so could be bs but I believe it.

Or just take the dregs they issue you.
