.22LR

This is cool.  I like how we’re at the point where it’s viable to print internal components, not just the frames:

Shooting it:

1:18 – The bolt by itself weighs about 79 grams (which includes the 45 gram tungsten weight).   The original 10/22 bolt weighs 180 grams.  He goes on to say later on that because of the light weight, this particular bolt design only works for subsonic rounds or short rounds.

Cool little project.  I’ll be watching this one to see if he’s successful in getting that bolt weight up.

The guy’s channel is called Heywood Yabuzzoff, and he has a lot of other experimental 3d printed gun vids too.  Definitely worth checking out.

Thoughts?

haha if it works, it works though I suppose *shrug*:

I’d recommend watching it on 2X speed.  How this video is able to get 580,000+ views, when some of my gun bros on YouTube get their videos pulled for literally no reason is something I’ll never understand.

<-- .22 LR is a gateway drug tho, amirite fellas? *heh* 😏

Interesting:

It’s crazy how much better CCI Stinger is than the cheaper options.  As a person who basically only shot Remington 22 Thunderbolt and Winchester 555 white box, I splurged on some CCI Stingers one day and it was a completely different experience.

Holy.  If you would have told me he could shoot back to back 200 round belts of .22LR with ZERO issues in that contraption, I would have bet money it would be impossible:

Wow… the brand is Lakeside Machine.  It says on the (terrible) website that they “sold out”, but in the video Dustin says they don’t make them anymore.  So quick!  It’s like one of those carney guns where you gotta shoot out the dot on the paper target.

I had a dick spider .22LR conversion using Black Dog Machine mags I couldn’t get more than a handful of shots off before there would be some type of issue with feeding etc..  I know that’s a completely different system, but I guess that’s why I’m so impressed that this more complicated one runs so well.

This is cool:

1M views on the vid!  Crazy he was able to pull it off.  Here are a couple more videos where he makes a wood foregrip and an ejector… and then in the 3rd video shoots the thing:

Thoughts? I really like when someone does something different like this.

Innnnnnnnnnnteresting.  As I say, .22 LR is a gateway drug heh heheh.

Not something I’m going to rush out to buy, but the concept / execution is cool.

It’s $400 if any of you guys care.
