M2 Browning – Ma Deuce Handheld California Love

Arguably Richard Ryan‘s most badass video yet:

That thing weighs 80lbs he says! haha whoa.

0:42 – That round hit a goat in Tijuana, and blew it into a million pieces.

Richard-Ryan-M2-Browning-Ma-DeuceRichard is fittingly wearing the California No Right To Bear Arms t-shirt from ENDO Apparel of course, which is also now available in a long sleeve version for $3 more.

Thoughts?

  1. And that’s why we mount them to stuff….

    I just finished Horse Soldiers. It’s a very interesting book about SF and the opening of Afghanistan, a little humor mixed in, but really just reality.

      No shit, someone gave me that book a few months ago and havent had a chance to read it yet.

    2. Finished Horse Soldiers… Absolutely loved it. The Flintstones meets the Jetsons part was surreal.

      1. I liked that… it’s amazing when you think about our level of technology and their complete lack of it. I also liked the “light 12 light bulbs” and you can almost read the guy going “Where am I going to get 12 light bulbs and electricity out here?!”

        Not in Horse Soldiers, but when we invaded Iraq they thought we had personal A/C units on us because there was no way we would be able to wear all that equipment without it… or that’s how the stories goes

    Yea you might need a small mountain as a backstop for that.

    1. Agreed. 5 rather large hills completely surrounded us at that range with nobody within 10 or so miles to the closest public road.

  3. Richard, if you come down by Corpus Christi Texas drop me an e-mail. I’d be honored to buy you a cup of coffee or a beer.

    1. I might have to take you up on that!

    Awesome as usual, but it looks like a laser sight might be in order to avoid those goat killers. I’m ready to see some high speed showing some SLAP round sabot separation and impact out of that bad boy.

    1. Agreed. I’m working on some pretty insane flight following technology at the moment. That would be perfect for it!

    This is an AN/M2 right? The lightweight aircraft version with insane cyclic rate. Imagine two of these sync’d up and firing faster than an MG42 but throwing 50 bmg out.

  7. Needs Arnold. 80’s version, just to be clear.
