@DARTH-C3RB3RUS No problem, glad to do what I can!

@TheCartoons4you Hell yeah, man! That's awesome to hear! I wanted to link some sort of donation or charity but I don't know if that's appropriate or not. For sure wish I could give more it's terrible out there.

@27hyperion CHAT IS THIS REAL?

@pingpongmury I'd friggin' buy one! Damn, million dollar idea! ROFL. /wii bowling music

@jerdog333 "I'm in love with your brother-in-law." "You're in love with your own brother!? The one in the Army?" "No! Your Sister's Husband." "Michael...?" "MICHAEL!" "No, that's your Sister's Brother." "No, I'm my Sister's Brother, you're in love with Me... ME" "I'm in love with Tobias..." "My Brother-In-Law? "I know it can never be, so I'm leaving. I'm inlisting in the Army." "To... Be with your Brother?!" "NOO!" Hahahahaha. I love that show man, been a while since I re-watched it, gonna have to binge it when I get some free time. And yeah, figured it was a good time to go over it. I know that it's a sore subject, but if a few hundred dollars worth of stuff can help stop any loss of life... Hopefully it helps someone who doesn't know where to start. And 100% agreed. I know that old physical pictures have gone out of style, but a Polaroid or physical copy of the family not only is good for looking for someone if split up or to put on notices, but having a physical copy can also be great for morale. I keep a small booklet of close friends and family in my documents bag, never know man. Much appreciated, I hope it does man, gonna go over adding to the pack and basically make it like a classroom format and keep adding stuff to the base. As well as do some skills and whatnot and make it an entire man vs. world/weather series if I can find the damn time to. You as well, Brother Nighthawk!

@Swanky0rc She was very unhappy I was recording and not letting her destroy my possessions.

@ivandotgames Glad to help, brother!

@bigernkingpin Hanging on the pillar up to the right? Yeah, in replaying the campaign the second time I was trying to record and do the achievements I missed, by the time I got around to SotM I realized it's not only faster to clear to him, but it's not a boss battle. I already made the guide by the time I put two and two together on that one. Suppose I could do an updated guide, but barely anyone saw it in the first place so I'll just pin your comment.

@@blueeyesactual Yeah, everyone thought the original method was the only way to get the achievement done, and it's probably the hardest one to get done but when my friend told me about the other mission I literally did it first go. The original guide was good, no doubt about it, but this makes it one of the easiest achievements to get now.

@@bigernkingpin Well I appreciate the confirmation on that thought process, I'll probably re-make the guide with that information! Do you mind if I give you attribution for the idea in the video by name? If you'd prefer not, I'll leave it out, just always like to give credit where it's due. Just under 5k kills away from 100%ing the game, absolutely love it, and just want other Brother' and Sisters of the Imperium to have access to good information, so very much appreciated!

@@blueeyesactual You would have ended up re-doing the guide anyway. You seem as much a completionist for adding guides as you are chasing the achievements in the game. If you wanna add credit to updated video you can but I honestly can say I'm not bothered. As long as the info gets out there and your vids get more views, I'm all good.

@@bigernkingpin Haha, I think you're right about that - very much so into experiencing as much of a game as possible. Sometimes to the detriment of trying new ones. Understood! Be well Brother, may the Emperor guide!

@ZingMeOut Hey, thank you! Very useful comment, do you mind if I pin your comment so other people can see it easier? Just wanna try and help out others who are looking to complete it I basically replayed like 3 whole maps looking for them after trying for an hour on the Gatling gun Scarab Terminators and it never unlocked.

@@blueeyesactual Not a problem if it helps.

@gentrydebbie1040 Right!? It's so much nicer on these larger models, I'm pretty happy with the knife and play with it way too much, hahaha.

@Three60Crusader Hey, thanks! Yeah took some, uhh "forceable persuasion" of dying a lot as bulwark in Ruthless Ops to get how important the parry is, haha. Absolutely fantastic game so far, very excited to see how it develops.

@@blueeyesactuallol yeah I hear that and it’s a little harder as bulwark just because of parry and block being tied together. Takes time to adapt from my experience from just doing story to bulwark in operations.

@Three60Crusader 100% agreed, story mode as a Primaris Marine, the embodiment of overpowered - to operations as a level 1 was a bit jarring. For me, once I get most of the top row of perks fleshed out it's great and was my first class I maxed out. Spent A LOT of time not making progress and playing solo because my multiplayer wouldn't work and just didn't know how much stuff I was missing out on with the armory data and XP. I found playing Bulwark as a "support" worked well, let the Sniper or Tactical sit in the back and work the big threats, and just hug the Heavy or Assault like we were twins and it helped survivability across the board. Slight side question, I see you have (or at least posted) a URGI upper video. I just installed a mk16 rail on my 10.3 for a suppressor host, loving it so far, though I am thinking about getting a complete URGI P&W for a GP setup on another lower; would you say it's worth it? Most people say wait for a Blemula sale but otherwise usually good things are all I hear (outside of colors sometimes not matching, prices and the typical complaints).

Yeah it’s definitely more difficult when you swap to operations. Thats actually a good way to approach playing the bulwark. It’s my highest class at 16 but I tend to drive the team forward but I haven’t played on Ruthless yet lol…😅 I do own the URGI 14.5 P&W and I think it’s worth every penny. It’s just a quality upper. I’ve only had it around 2 months but I’ve been very pleased with it. Been wanting to make a real video on it. But haven’t quite decided on how to go about it yet. There is some minor variation in the gold-ish color coating from what I’ve heard but that’s just a nit pick I guess. I’d highly recommend it for a General Purpose rifle 100% and it’s worth the dough. But supposedly Geisselle runs some pretty good Black Friday deals from what I hear if it’s available then. If you’re not in a hurry November is just around the corner and may be worth waiting a little longer. But it’s worth it and I have zero regrets.

​@@Three60Crusader For sure a great class if your teammates understand the limitations and can adapt to situations with you. Ruthless can be rouggggh, but it's crazy fun. If you haven't tried the Plasma Pistol+Power Sword it's MONEY. Fantastic. That's exactly what I want, I've got most of the popular barrel lengths, 10.3 (it's like 10.4 technically), 11.5, 13.9 and 16, but feel like the 14.5 from a brand like BCM or G$ is the way to go. For sure gonna wait for November, $300+ dollars off for a complete is great, just gotta be fast about ordering it, from what I hear. Thanks for the info, for sure helps narrow it down, much appreciated, brother.

@jerdog333 Thanks man! You never know man, there might be a miracle and California gets to have it's rights back! 8 states man, it's always the same 8 states, and it bothers me so much. I will absolutely enjoy it while I can, and I know one day you'll enjoy one, too! Thanks, brother Nighthawk!

@@blueeyesactual "so you're saying there's a chance?" Haha. Yea, hopefully things will change. Stay cool, and can't wait to see your next video!

@@jerdog333 I had a fun time explaining Probability and Possibility to a friends kid, and I used New York and California following federal law to explain them, hahaha. I don't mean to do it to poke fun, but he understood immediately what I meant when I gave him the talk. Soon brother, soon!

@bills.2214 I think I had built it up in my head as even more of a process than it actually was, I know without context it for sure seems like a lot, but it really was mostly just typing my information in 3, maybe 4 times and waiting for emails for the next step; actually doing stuff took less time than the two round trips (four 40ish minute drives) to do the fingerprints/passport photo and then picking it up! Edit: And yeah, the tax and restrictions by adding them to the NFA was to force people out of being able to purchase them in the 40s and on, it was prohibitively expensive back then, and at some point I'll do a video about the NFA/GCA and explain stuff. The Tax legitimately wasn't my main issue with purchasing, but the extra nonsense and then having to wait a year+ for a thing I already paid for was my main concern, this new system fixes a lot of that, but it's still insane we can't just have them shipped to our homes. In my instance with this can, yes, it does shift the accuracy, but it's typically only shifting down less than half an inch strictly due to the weight of the can slightly dropping the barrel. Depending on the can you end up selecting it can be more or less than that, but all the other factors stand, barrel length and profile, ammunition selection, if it's a dedicated or multi-cal can and the way it attaches all factor into that. However Surefire is at least known for crazy good accuracy and minimal POI shift on vs. off, and in some instances it tightens up groups. VERY excited to test it out and for future videos.

@TheCartoons4you I did landscaping for nearly a decade and prior to even owning firearms basically it started, so essentially 1/2 to pushing 2/3rds of my life.

@@blueeyesactual does it sort of come and go or is it persistent? Just curious lol

@@TheCartoons4you Left ear rings constantly, right ear in and out when I experience really loud noises un-blocked by earplugs or headphones. But yes, I hear it constantly, even when I don't think about it, it's there and can immediately focus on it. I genuinely don't recall a time in my adult life it didn't ring and essentially always need a fan or something on for background noise. Hearing loss is cumulative, but also can be one loud sound and BOOP, you're cooked. So I have taken the remainder of my hearing super seriously, and basically since 18 have been wearing earplugs to concerts, don't listen to my music absurdly loud, and double up at the range to combat what I can. It's no joke, I wouldn't wish it on people and for people with worse, or who picked it up in Combat or serving the country, I for SURE hope they get paid-paid for it.

@@blueeyesactual Yeah I am kind of hardcore on my hearing as well. Never liked really loud music anyway, or loud noises. I have some ringing as well, but it can go away sometimes.

@Ohyouknowbro I 100% agree. I wish you could use the GG&G stock adapter. It's the only reason I like the 1301 is for that very reason. Still a great shotgun for the price!

@blueeyesactual I still bought it, you cannot beat it for the money. Hopefully some companies decide to start giving it some aftermarket love. Good video brother

@Ohyouknowbro For sure! And thank you, appreciate it! enjoy it man!

@Swanky0rc Stylistically, of course!

THE FOG IS COMING. THE FOG IS COMING. THE FOG IS COMING.

@@blueeyesactualI have been thinking of movies, and can't think of anything with it? A meme? Or a game?

@@TheCartoons4you It's an obscure analog horror / digital horror meme, based off or potentially pulled directly from the largest fiction horror / collaborative writing project on the planet. The SCP foundation. Super DUPER deep rabbit hole on that one, won't be able to explain it very well in a short comment, but if you type that into TH-cam and or google I imagine you'll get the jist of it pretty quickly.

@josephbrenner8704 Wait, really!? Man that's disappointing to hear that maybe there are some that have it in the gen3. I'm glad they are streamlining stuff to easier maintinance and CS/warranty stuff in the future, but that was probably my second favorite aspect of the knife was that spine fluting.

@@blueeyesactual I should of been more clear lol the the first batch of the gen 3 that got sent to dealers months ago have the spine flutes but they sold out I was lucky to get mine last week thru American edge they might have one left but idk why they changed it , does make the ones with spine flutes harder to find too they didn’t make that many

@pluggerdavidson6418 Glad to hear you're safe brother! Glock 19 is a great option and I imagine you're glad you had it!

@jeremiahhook3001 Nailed it, hahaha. I not only had my multi-thousand dollar PC die on me and lost a bunch of footage which invalidated the previous test and a bunch of future video footage, but I also worked a full day and then went out and re-filmed three and some change hours of video and probably hit 10k steps. Long, very sweaty day, but I love it! EDIT: And thank you for the kind words! Glad to be of assistance!

@@blueeyesactual shhhhhiiiiit bro solid grouping given the circumstances

@@jeremiahhook3001 Thanks man! Not my best work but had some good groups! for sure not the best testing but it was real and not faked for views. Appreciate you, brother! Stay safe out there.

@bills.2214 Great question! I honestly don't know, it could be a couple different things! The timing of the two videos and audio could be slightly off as I had to sync them manually, and depending on when it hits, could just be the time it takes for the impact to register and then travel back to the microphone to pick up the hit. Those green flashers at 500 are sick because you know a full second before the sound reaches you. A few of the ['PINK' instead of a 'PONK' or 'boooong' of hitting steel] were brass hitting the tripod legs. Hahaha, I was like "What is that sound!?" then realized back in the Radian Ramjet+Afterburner video it made a very similar sound. As to me being fast, I would love to take credit for any of that, hahaha; BUT the final explanation could be, and it does it to me too, if I watch TH-cam in the car or connected to Bluetooth there appears to be about a 2 second lag which might also account for it? That trigger I'm running in this Frankenstein build is a Geissele SD-E, it's got a ~2ish LB pull to the first wall, and just over a LB break, so that might also be what you're seeing just a really friggin' light trigger. Be well brother!

@TheCartoons4you Thanks man! I am also stoked to get back at it! Cooking up some projects and cool shit to review as I type this. Hopefully can take advantage of the rest of Summer and Fall and get out and rip it up! And RIGHT!? It was intense! There we're some deer walking around between the targets and they didn't give a CRAP about the sound, ZERO survival instincts!

@TheCartoons4you And yeah, dude, the impacts were insane!

@jerdog333 EXACTLY most can't afford to take almost any hit to credit or lose banking details. Actual. Nightmare. Fuel! There was a thing I read (of which I cannot recall how old, and or where but I imagine you've heard something similar in this community) that most American's cannot survive an emergency or unexpected payment of $1,500-3,000. That's the world we live in, where people have their identity stolen and $150,000+ worth of credit cards used in their name; infuriates me to no end. For sure worth having an executive meeting day with the family, doing a dry run for emergencies, fire drills, home intruder, some creep trying to abduct someone, what to do incase of weird calls, etc. and at least begin talking about what to do in these instances. Checking and changing passwords. Cleaning up old accounts and the like; I try to do it twice a year, usually around the time I charge batteries and swap out stuff in optics! Schedule it, make it fun, and then go out for a cheeseburger and a shake if they are receptive. Positive reinforcement is a heck of a thing! Of all the videos I make, I feel like this one might be one of, if not top 5 most important for personal security and overall mindfulness. It's insane to me how many things are net-connected now, medical records, social security, insurance, schooling (including for children) and all these other necessary things. Now with about 10 minutes of video, you can deepfake live audio and video of people, and pretend to be your loved ones. The future is now, and it's horrific. Have a good amount of backup cash, use a solid password manager, or at the very least have good digital hygiene, try not to tell people your stuff unsolicited (I've made up an entire contact to give out to people who are fishy and then use it to probe.. I'll leave it at that- call it a bygone of my RedTeaming days) have a good solid emergency plan for weather, but also a family safe-word / code phrase / or a simple call and response: SOMETHING that only your flesh and blood will know is your go word or emergency phrase to verify you're not speaking with someone faking it stuff. (Heads up, this paragraph might get confusing, so I apologize in advance, you can skip it ROFL) Password managers are absolutely an unfortunate thing, I like using simple compound phrases and then making variations of them so they're extremely long, but easily remembered. So something along the lines of 3RDr0ckfromthe5un!; fulfills all the requirements of most websites, including special characters, upper and lower case, as well as 18 characters long! If you throw some periods in there, you can change your letter or number substitution, or have a set way that you build or replace characters in your passwords so that you can always maintain continuity and never mistakenly type a zero instead of an o or O. It sounds complex or complicated, but it sure beats AC130.-9*&^2abbadabba121214. Another method I like is shift displacement, so something like picking a number and letter and holding shift and running down from lets say 9F, so from 9 - holding shift 9OKjhggf - once I get to F, I hit shift and retrace my steps, so it becomes 9OKjhggfFGHJI( and then I can throw 9F as my password reminder. Also sounds complicated but doing it a few times and you can get extremely long and extremely easy passwords just using rows on your computer. I've told people stories or about things I've learned in the security space, like making sure you have an extremely boring SSID (Wi-Fi name) because you can literally bump a persons Wi-Fi connection EXTREMELY EASILY, grab all of their previously attached networks and then with a few searches essentially Geo-locate their router, using it's friggin' broadcast name. It's why I tell people to pay for unlimited data, NEVER connect to public or non-local Wi-Fi. and if possible, turn your Bluetooth and Wi-Fi broadcasts off while in public. Your phone is basically a homing beacon. It's a sad, but unfortunately true part of living with the IoT (internet of things). If you are bored or got time to kill, drop a search in TH-cam of videos of people connecting to unsecured baby monitors, Ring or Wyze cams, Dash cams in cars, or just catfishing videos in general, the insane amount of plentiful attack vectors, combined with gross negligence of corporations and the U.S. Gov, yeah... Always gotta be on your toes. Always have to be vigilant. It's getting fu**ing old. Be well, brother Nighthawk! Almost a year of Prestige Worldwide and becoming best-friends!

@@blueeyesactual Hahaha. Oh man, almost our anniversary! Haha. It's a beautiful thing having a global media company and a best friend! Haha. Dude, you just wrote a master class on home online security! I literally copied and pasted what you wrote and saved it on a word doc. It's crazy to me how almost everything of value that isn't a physical item in your home is able to be hacked and stolen. I honestly don't know how much longer until a national or global collapse due to hacking. It's scary! And thank goodness I'm not there anymore but yes, most Americans can't come up with $1,000 cash in an emergency. That's how my parents were my whole childhood. And to think someone can just take everything I own with a few clicks. Oh man. Well I joined Aura and did a credit freeze on all three credit places (whatever the heck they even are I have no idea. haha). Well brother Dragon, thanks for scaring the sheit out of me with all that cyber attack stuff. Now I will have no problem staying up all night working till my shift ends at 5am. Haha. Oh, and my daughter now loves YellowBird hot sauce. At first I was so happy, then I remembered how expensive it is. haha. Oh well, once Prestige World Wide takes off, YB hot sauce for everyone! Haha

@TheCartoons4you Let alone how something that was meant to be a private identifier number for retirement and tax purposes became privately used by corporations and institutions for lending and banking, AND THEY STILL DO IT. Lots of issues with the SSN system. EDIT:Spelling

@Johnz71 You're very welcome! My Grandparents were scammed almost a decade ago, and I've taken it as a personal mission to thwart anyone from doing it again and try to help people who were targeted. It's sad it seems like it's only getting more and more sophisticated in the attacks. Ugly, ugly world we live on, sometimes. Sorry to hear that, brother, it's a nightmare situation! Best of luck and I hope it's the last for you!

@bills.2214 Hey man! Hope you're doing well; I have tried Google's password manager, it seems to be pretty good as of the few months I've used it; love that it gives you hints and tells you if you're using duplicates - not all of them do that. What I would suggest, is closing all of your unused or extremely old email accounts to start with, any one that isn't your main user. The ones from when you were younger, old social media accounts, and if possible, vendor accounts from online purchases for the places that require account creation or don't use guest checkout. Depending on how deep you wanna dive, you could create a new email address [whichever service of your choosing] or like i suggested in the video using the (+) symbol to start segmenting things moving forward. Alternatively, moving your extremely important accounts to the new "clean" account is, I'd assume not only faster, but easier than closing a crap ton of accounts that you might not even remember and turning your old email into the everything else account. I like running one personal, one business, one "everything else" email for everything else, but i'd say 2 with some of the features I mentioned in the video to slowly chip away and wittle it down to your core or necessary accounts. TL:DR - It's 100% daunting - for sure! Start by deleting old stuff you can remember - but know you aren't using(old emails, social media, vendor accounts); take it bit by bit, or create a new clean account explicitly for "super important" use and migrate those accounts, and then slowly clear out the old email and accounts until it's where you're happy. Stay safe out there, brother! Hope this helped,

@920WASHBURN Agreed, not a giant fan of the throwing shade at people he doesn't agree with thing he's been doing lately. But I guess I can't really say I haven't done it as well. I'm actually working on a 1 year update to this video as I type this and I've thought about it a lot. Good gear, though. Cannot argue with the equipment.

@iamgvnzi6524 They are from CountyComm, I believe they're called Gate Clips, they have them in Stainless and Titanium. I also think there's a McGizmo or two on there, the smaller shiny ones. It's been a decade so I don't know if those are still made, I think I got them from Illumn(dot)com. Hope this helped!

@Jmp64-ns8zl Hey! Yes, it's an aftermarket Farrowtech Holosun 509T adapter. The Pic rail comes off and it bolts into the place. Gets a slightly lower than lower third, maybe lower 1/5th co-witness. It was swapped exactly for that reason, pic rail was too tall and didn't allow any use of the irons or any co-witness for that dot. Absolutely would recommend both the 509T for this firearm and the mount! If you have a bigger budget, maybe an Aimpoint Acro, otherwise the 509T is fantastic. If you want to know a bit more in video form, I have a full review and breakdown on this setup linked in the description of this short! Hope that helped! Stay safe out there brother!

@@blueeyesactual Back at ya, and thanks!

@@blueeyesactual Would the HS 507C X2 fit the same mount? Bit more budget friendly. Thanks!

​@@Jmp64-ns8zl So, this plate (509T) that will not work on, but they do have an RMR footprint that it should work on! Same brand, Farrowtech RMR 1301/A300 plate. Will give you a similar effect and let you use that dot. I do want to say you should email or call them to confirm first. But from my understanding that plate and optic combo should work. I don't know them or work there so I don't wanna confirm 100%. That would be a great combo, too! Love the 507C, have a pre-button chage V2.

@@blueeyesactual U da man, Brother!

@007stopjockin Hey, that's a great question; I do want to apologize up front about the long response, I like to be thorough when people ask for my opinion so I give them as much good information as possible. So I haven't compared it directly with the M4 the same day; But, I've compared it with the Benelli M2 (same day) and I would say having only a few hours of time on both the M4 and M2, I'd say this is absolutely a contender for best semi auto shotgun, if not as good or better, ESPECIALLY considering price point, you can get this fully kitted out for pushing 50% on of the base cost of the m2/m4; with nearly the exact same performance, just not the same decades of reliability ,mass adoption and aftermarket support (which is rapidly catching up). I would say as far as a home defense firearm and assuming you're using a standard full power buckshot or bird-shot, it will absolutely handle the situation like it's it's day-job. However, I do want to make a note, that in some websites right now you can find the Beretta 1301 Tactical gen 1, which is the same brand, originally ~$1800 before gen 2 launched, with a slightly nicer with a better gas system i.e. similar jump from the Benelli m2 to the m4 but for Beretta's 12g's, for about $200-300 more than the A300 Ultima Patrol; with some research. I'd say if you have it in the budget, and can handle the additional ~200/300$ for the base shotgun, get the 1301 gen 1 (as long as it's in the 1,300-1,400 range). If you want it to be in the 1300-1400$ range with all the gizmos, ammo, optic and light; get the A300 Ultima Patrol. I would absolutely rely on it (either of them) as a home defense shotgun and I've tried easily 30 different types (birdshot, buckshot, slugs, bear defense rubber shot) across multiple brands of ammo and had zero malfunctions pushing almost 1,800 rounds on it (safe lowball estimate since this video was filmed); with regular maintenance and cleaning. TL:DR, Price to performance, absolutely on par if not better than the M4. Yes, but if you want a buy once cry once option in the same family, get the 1301 gen 1. If on a budget still yes, get A300 Ultima Patrol - - Good to go for your purpose. Good luck out there brother! Let me know if you have any more questions.

@@blueeyesactual hey brother! I really appreciate you taking the time to spend all that time answering my question. I have been watching all kinds of videos trying to decide which one is best for home defense. I am leaning towards the Beretta A300 Ultima Patrol. Found it for $899. Planning on leaving it stock without a bunch of bells and whistles. I figure with double aught buckshot, an intruder wouldn't be able to duck buckshot 😆. Does the ft per second really matter? I saw some videos where the slower speed shells didn't provide enough power for the discharge and the reload, and were jamming quite a bit. A nightmare scenario we all want to avoid! Thanks again for taking the time and giving me some advice! 007

@@007stopjockin No problem, I try to connect with the people who engage with my videos. Still small enough where I can do that, so I enjoy it while I can. To your first part, even stock in stock configuration it's a potent option for what you're looking for. I think as long as you're not using super light bird-shot - 1oz is my stopping point, of which we had no issues cycling. And with Buckshot, during our testing it all cycled, even the cheapest stuff we could find. So sticking with a known quantity brand like Hornady or Remington it should run like a Swiss watch. Obviously anything mechanical in nature can have issues, so my recommendation would be to buy a few different boxes, run them and see what performs/patterns, and feels best. For most practical, "tactical" or self defense options, ft/s isn't going to be a huge factor, if you hit someone with buckshot, they probably aren't gonna be a problem anymore, even give or take 2-300fps. Hahaha. I'd say send it, that price point is fantastic! We've been very happy with it, and most people who have commented about it seem to enjoy it as well!

@StupidusMaximusTheFirst Thanks brother! It's a great shotgun, absolutely top tier and great performance!

@jseden Weird, I replied a few hours after your initial comment and somehow it disappeared. AAA or small form factor penlight/single cell admin lights are fantastic! (Jealous of the Prometheus btw, great lights, I run Pineapples, Lumintop Tools, and an ANTMAN as well and some other Rovyvons and the Chicro as well, have a small light video too if you're looking for more videos) but absolutely understand and agree with the statement of running a simple UI, high candela light for most supplications where a firearm is also on your person. The thought that people are using a pistol mounted light when someone loses their keys or walking the dog genuinely spooks me, and I think that's the best way around it; have different optoins (prior to even phone flashlight). I go back and forth between anduril lights (Lumintop/Noctigon/Emisar etc) and just an on off "tactical brand" light, or even a Convoy S2+ wiith a Thyrm on it, it's hard when they all have so many different applications, color temperatures, distances they function at, etc. Side note, how do you like the DC MCH HC head? I considered back and forth if I wanted that or the EDC, and the brightness won me over, really like the look of that Duty and HC, though. Might have to get one of those for Part II of this video. And MAN LEPS ARE AMAZING, I only have the ANTMAN but it's insane being able to light up something perfectly uniformly at 200m with a AA sized light. Makes me want to try out a Weltool (Think that's the brand) rifle mounted LEP for my upcoming video on shooting in the dark at range. Thanks again for your comment, carry well and be safe out there, brother!

@@blueeyesactual The prometheus was a a bit of a painful purchase but I had the money and just happened to find them in stock one day & couldn't help myself. Can't say I regret it though! It's a mainstay in my pocket and I still use it almost daily after a couple years. Definitely digging the HC.. From what I can tell, the EDC, especially the earlier ones are a bit warmer and CCT would be my only real gripe when it comes to the HC. However it's still a decent color renderer and for the use cases I got the thing for, I'm pretty over it. Really impressive throw from the thing but still has enough spill to be a usable edc light. Definitely like it being programmable too. Currently have it set to HIGH/ 10%. Figured it IS a tactical light and I can get it to the low mode with a quick tap&click if Its what I want. Can also always take 30 secs and reconfigure it to start at 5% if that would be more suitable for a few days.. Or I guess I can just use the beta if I want lower output, lol. Usually have a little rovyvon on me too so the Tac light can stay tactical.. It's a nice replacement for the roll previously filled by the antman though.. A compact, pocket thrower/HC light for checking dark alleys around my apartment or scaring off some of the more questionable figures around here. People get hit with a bright light from any decent distance and they assume police or security and move along lol. Haven't invested in any WML yet.. None of my guns will take on but I plan on outfitting my mini14 folder with one whenever i get some kind rail for it. Still pondering options there

@@blueeyesactual oh and weltool seems great! Currently most interested in the w1.. 18650 lep with a little bit of spill.

@@jseden Man I love running into fellow light guys, there's a lot of overlap of some of the EDC/Gun/Gear guy communities, but it seems like hardcore lights guys are rarely also into flashlights and other things. Which I can't say shit, I was on the CPF fourms back in the day, spent my fair share of time over spending on lights, hahaha. That's all you can really ask for right? That it is bright enough to make some weirdo hanging around your apartment complex or parking garage to think twice at night about approaching you, or to give you enough information on if it's fight or flight time but also works if you gotta change a tire on the interstate at night. 100% agree the HC and with the ability to mode switch is a good one and done option for "tactical" purposes, and outsourcing admin or long term project time to a smaller light is ideal (has worked for me going on 15 years or so). May have to bite the bullet and get one on black friday! The somewhat rosy color of the EDC is also my only "complaint" about it, I get they want a certain color so it works better in dusty or smoky environments, but I'm an output snob, I want every lumen you can get! Blue-er the better for me. Reproduction can be left to my Nichia's! I haven't personally owned a Weltool, but I've played with the Acebeam Terminator LEP+LED, and I'd imagine the numbers are similar enough to imagine that W1 would be INSANE on a long gun at night!

@CarlPapa88 It's honestly a fantastic piece of machinery. Can't recommend it enough. Edit: Also with the 1301 getting a Gen 2 facelift, hoping they'll do one for this bad boy as well, might help drive the gen 1's down in price (they're perfectly fine but would be neat to save a few extra bucks for an optic) Great home / business / vehicle defensive option, and fun as a plinker, too!

@whomagoose6897 Correct.

@TheCartoons4you Hahaha, man that's a throwback. I always think of the Simpsons "Old man yells at clouds" meme. Friggin' hate this heat!

@@blueeyesactual Hahaha

@Dusty_GG Hard enough to make firearms content on TH-cam, start saying too much an they start messing with your visibility and whatnot. Free speech ain't so free on here, unfortunately. You as well Dusty! Glad to be back, hope you're doing well brother!

@@blueeyesactual you got that right. I can only imagine how hard it would be to make your content right now

@justinl8455 I think just shy of doubled the round count, probably in the 1600 rounds area on it now. I do still carry it, really dig it. I do from time to time put it on another setup when I wanna shoot that, had zero issues feeding or anything on 3 different firearms with the stock recoil spring, either.

Holy crap that's a good price!

@g10s Thank you! Someone commented "IF YOU DON'T KNOW S**T DONT MAKE VIDEOS LIKE THIS!" I feel like it's overlooked in many of the grip presentations, 'least the ones I've seen; by a lot of people, and was single-handedly (no pun intended) what made me a better pistol shooter more than single thing. Have a good one!

Finally someone else gets it! I feel like even though I said it was a good gun, just liked the 17 a bit better people heard it as "19 bad". Cheers!

@jonnyke7090 I went back and forth for years up to this about this or the combat troodon. I think I feel in love with the Scarab first, and have other non-combat troodons, so I went this route. Love it. Didn't know that on the gen 3s, makes sense with the lighter blade for a singular spring setup. Thanks for stopping by and the information!

@@blueeyesactual No worries brother, enjoy the Scarab 🗡️🔥🔪😎

@@blueeyesactual just wanted to quickly mention that the Marfione custom Scarab's are just so awesome. I don't own one but have seen a few up-close, they have to be one of the coolest/nicest knives imo 🙏

@Patriot6669 Heck yeah dude! Congratulations! Gotta say I'm super impressed with it, never had any of their full frame knives, and while it's sad they're doing some changes to the entire lineup, I think it's gonna make for overall better products. Hopeful to see what new stuff comes out as well. Glad you enjoy it, too man! Enjoy!

@Brett235 Love an M&P as well, doubly so for performance center or Aluminum framed 2.0. And yeah, same, I don't carry this firearm, but for the price, absolutely a fantastic value proposition. Outside of maybe saving up an extra 100$ for a CZ P10-(something) it's great right in that 250-300$ range.

@Scruffyman81 No

@EDChero Thank you. I've only had it going on 2 months, but so far no failures!

@jagmeetsmann Appreciate the feedback, thank you! बढ़िया दूरबीन.
