SAR21 is said to be right handed because of fear of chamber explosion for left handers. The shooter's face would be on the right side where all the gas and shrapnels would fly out. So shooting with right hand is more of a safety precaution
SAR21 is a similar design to the Tavor 21 which i find as the most comfortable design, compact good for both enclosed spaces as well as on a battlefield however the Tavor 21's stopping power is much greater than the SAR-21 and contain more parts than the SAR-21
SAR-21 is a full-sized Assault Rifle
M4 is a Carbine/ Personal Defensive Weapon (cut down Assault Rifle)
MP5 is a Sub-Machinegun (Machine Pistol)
it's like comparing DSLR to Compact Camera and Camera Phones
and saying more people use Camera Phone because the DSLR dosent have reliability...
At 1:21 has he used the M16 before? I don't think so. The M16 had problems with jamming when it first came out but that has been fixed over multiple iterations. I believe the standard M16 weighs the same as the SAR21 but the M16 has so many modifications and attachments over the years that there are models (e.g. carbine) which are lighter than the SAR21.
Another utube weapon expert repeating what other "experts" have said.
@Matafleur there are many ways you can get to hold the rifles. army open house, science centre or as ncc cadets.
I really like these songs at the start. I want to download a big long version
why all the SG so nice ah?
I do not remember mine talking so nicely to us.
This is army
Will they show you the bad side?
No
Watch the US marines.. They dun give a care even when the cameras are there... but in reality we all know.. off camera It Is the real deal.. or maybe it jus me.. HooRa
Nowadays recruits using new rifle sar 21. 30 to 40 years ago we still used the M16 rifle.
@StriderZ there is a small stub at the ejector port meant to deflect the rounds from flying directly backwards. so unless ur face is at the ejector port, u might not get hit by the discharging cartridge. MIGHT not...i emphasize.
na the sar21 is heavier. m16 is 3.6kg loaded but the sar 21 is 4.44kg loaded. its the the handle near the center of gravity that makes it feel lighter
Wow... Now got gloves to use while handling sar?
from my batch, we are using m16S1 not m16a1 or 2 variants, weapons wise, m16 and Sar21 is the mainstay of assault rifles.
I hope this series remains on TH-cam forever hahaha. Reliving all my BMT memories hahaha
Now got season 3 haha
@Matafleur SAR21 is definitely heavier but i think what made him said the rifle felt lighter is due to the weight distribution of the rifles. It feels lighter carrying a SAR21 than a M16. You have to carry it to believe it.
the sar 21 in fact is heavier isin't it. the centre of gravity and position of the pistol grip is slightly different, making it feel lighter.
i miss army life. But then this video series is like adventure camp lei no where near the standard of army.
@ruty2004 its not a tactical light, its a laser designator. and it sure as hell isnt LED
@Shortizz but the iron sight is harder to use at longer ranges like 300 - 500 m. got to give the SAR 21 credit for the use of a scope, its easier to zero. other than that, the M16/AR15/M4 are really reliable, and easier to handle and less of a trigger pull
I went to the Army Open House @ Suntec as well in Feb or march I can't remember. well my question is NDU Divers have to contact water more often than others, so does that show SAR-21 doesn't perform that well as compared to M4/MP5 so that's why they are not using SAR-21? Haha...
Well I will sign on after my uni, so just quite curious about it
@Hairysteed Roughly the same. Until you mount the M203 underneath the M16. I'm 2nd M203...
@StriderZ The empty cartridges are ejected diagonally towards the front, not towards the face. Unlike the M16 which needed a deflector, the SAR21 needs no modification for left-handed firing. Even the charging handle is designed for ambidextrous use. However, if I'm not wrong, for some reason, left-handed firers are instructed to shoot right-handed. *shrug*
Double feeding drill is remove magazine and rack action right
Reload and refit
The AR platform is lighter, but the SAR21 is more reliable vs carbon fouling. It's long for a Bullpup, and it's heavy.
The officers so kind leh
SAR 21 is lighter in feel because its weight is evenly distributed while m16 is front heavy which u would require more effort lift up. if u carry it, u will SAR is heavier, if u try to shoot it or aim, m16 is going to use more energy.
Is it a good idea to practice with nerf gun first before using the SAR 21
IF i do recall....
SAR 21 = 4.4kg.
M16 = 3.9kg.
SAR21 was made heavier because of the stability it gives the user when aiming.
Who wrote this title... mentally read it without the brackets "Strip Every Singaporean Son"
@Hairysteed but with a quad picatinny rail, we can add more to the M16 than the SAR21 which u practically cannot add extra stuff. from a operator point of view, if u really need to do missions, u want ur rifle fully equipped.
weight issue, the 16 is lighter but longer, the 21 is bulky n heavy. true it has the LAM and the scope, but based on stock, the 16 wins, lets not bring in the extra stuff.
what is that song from 6:01
At first glance it seems the SAR 21 was modeled after the Steyr AUG, but without the option of left-handed configuration, wasnt this issue brought up during prototype phase?
SAR21 "alot lighter" than M16???
its all about apparent weight VS true weight. M16 is front heavy hence why ppl feel its heavier. Front heavy is rather good for recoil. SAR21 being a bullpup is well balanced compared to conventional rifles. Just hold both rifles with ur right hand on the grip ull get what im trying to convey
Better weight distribution.
Is it recommended to dry fire the rifle?
cb why they do so slack slack one , we do our ps constantly screams at us non stop cb sibei stress
+Ray Stoner walau, not obvious meh? this one is for the media what...
Zhe ge shi make NS seem fun what. They don't want everyone scared like shit then even harder to teach new recruits
@Gameming Tech Project dumbass, Singapore used the M16 rifle before the SAR-21. Use your brain and do some research before commenting bullshit
@@DystopicEdits ok
Dystopic M16 and then SAR18
1:10 Aren't they suppose to Wear LBV when shooting? what is that they are wearing?
Are the bullets real?
In actual range, weapon jam will normally only happen if your magazine's rounds are not aligned to the back of the magazine (if that happens blame your sergeant for poor loading). Either that or you lean your magazine on the floor in proning position while firing (adopting poor posture).
I guess I am kind of randomly asking but do anyone know a good site to stream newly released series online?
@Vicente Dominic i dunno atm I've been using Flixportal. you can find it thru google :D -brooks
@Brooks Charlie thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :) I really appreciate it!!
@Vicente Dominic you are welcome xD
@AuditionGuy258 it depends on whether he learn chinese in school . i have one fren who is like that also . and he learn chinese . so he can speak malay , chinese and english
The title should be "EVERY SINGAPOREAN SON HAS A MAID TO CARRY HIS RUCKSACK" lol
Unfortunately, the Bespectacled are High Percentage and Will Affect Operational Readiness and Actual Combats, especially When Commanders are Bespectacled, too.
are they suppose to "NOT" point the gun at anyone even if its not loaded?
They are not allowed to point the gun at anyone even if if is not loaded. This is to cultivate their rifle discipline.
+shadowpersona youre not to point your gun at anyone unless you are going to shoot. Always assume that the weapon is loaded
can upload all these? not like against singapore defence, what if others see?
Is the SAR21 Nylon??
I used M16 back in the days, even now reservist too... Was a very heavy weapon...
@Shortizz i agree m16 is better in accuracy and is alot lighter. sad part is sar 21 is shorter so is easier to use when it comes to urban
Wait u guys actually made a song for it?
Can I ask how to disassemble the LAD device, in case of spoiling. And also what if the 1.5x optic is damaged in combat?
@ninjax105 You can mount an M203 on the SAR-21 too
@mith252 Isn't the new LBV suppose to just put in on like how you wear a Buttoned Shirt... That is like wearing a T-Shirt?
1:23 the sar 21 is a lot lighter??? haha
Where does the recruit keep their rifles? In their cupboard or is there like a storage room for they to keep all their rifle together?
i thought SAR 21 is heavier ??! hmm.. they improved it ?
m16 is 3.x KG and sar is 4kg exact. with empty mag loaded.
Did they use real guns
Feeling Scared...
I thought SAR was heavier?
@YJohnstar Ur right dude!! Sar21 is juz more compact n shorter.
I wonder why wasnt the SAR 21 created to be ambidextrous? even after initial feedback by left-handed handlers, shouldn new models be tweaked? That would surely reduce time wastage on specifically training left-handed recruits.
Is the intro song available anywhere? It's really funny!
i only have a question, NAVY Divers are not using SAR21, does that show that the reliability of the weapon is not as good as M4/MP5?
Special force have their own requirements like maybe being able to fire immediately after a dive
So in military, only a SAR21? No Ak or Hk416? how bump >.>
I think the M16A1 (No.16) and SAR21 (No.21) weigh around the same...I held the M16A1 firle before in my UG days...
No matter how you look at it, the SAR 21 is heavier than the M16. I've handled both quite a bit, so I think I can speak from experience as well as with the mighty strength of google. Loaded, the M16 weighs only a little more than an unloaded SAR21
@donttalktome951
Flak vest? Well, they have ballistic plates, and Kevlar. They are perfectly capable of stopping many kinds of rounds.
gee... SAR21 has already so little parts and they take so long?! lol...
nabei..this instructor so nice.... my instructor oh my god siak.. if i smile and smile like that,, confirm kana one.... ah yoh.... ORD OH !!!!!!!
doesn't matter, it just depend on what weapon u are train in 1st..if m16 convert to sar 21, i still prefer m16..
Maybe its the camera man in front of the recruits and instructor, how can the recruits smile and are so relax during training? Plus there were no punishment when mistakes were made?
lol, I thought SAR is 1 kg heavier than M16? It just feels lighter because of the weight balance
M4/MP5 are more compact and are more suitable for ship boarding etc
@xian1234 That is the new LBV. It is has the same camo on it as its uniform.
WHY SAR21 CANT HANDLE THE LEFTY WAYS ?! i though its built in a such that it works both ways ?!
Yes.
how come when syabil loaded his bullets uder 60 secs got people clap, i loaded my bullets in 42 secs but no one clap :(
Tekong sure has changed since i was there. Only what, one year before this series was made if I'm not wrong. I was the last batch to use M16.
@PrinceNick Well, if you ask me, it is still better than the SAW Ultimax 100. I used the SAR21 to clear the rounds for the SAW!! I definitely love this rifle more than the M16S1.
@Cptjonmiller How much does an M16 weigh when you mount a scope and LAM on it (plus the needed mounting rails), both of which are standard on the SAR-21?
The SAR21 feels heavier because it's more compact, so it's got a higher mass to volume ratio. I never really got used to the scoped sight...
I still remember stripping down an M16 in the dark... fun times. =P
And I thought the universal IA drill eventually boiled down to "IA IA!" *Take out magazine, check magazine, pull charging handle a few times then put magazine back and pull charging handle*?
As a Singaporean I can confirm I will be peeing at the jungles for days 😂
Im from one of the batches who went through the strange experience of using M16 for BMT, Sar21 For Sispec and then M16 again for arty school lolz.
IMO, the M16 is definitely the better rifle in terms of accuracy.
I believe it depends on each individual. The SAR 21 is easy to used and maintained for me personally. And it's light.
at 1:22,
Really meh? Isn't SAR 21 is much heavier than M16? I was in the first batch of recruits that started training with the SAR 21 leh... Aiya, but nevermind la... he has the good mentality set liao.
i hav held and strip a SAR-21 rifle b4 as a cadet in ncc when i was 15 (sec 3)
hmm.. its pretty much easier to strip a SAR-21 Rifle rather than an M16 :)
Ah boys to men: When Aloysious assembled in 10 secs. :/
wish sar 21 is introduced to the ncc cadets during the IMT.its shorter and would really be of great help to the female cadets who have considerably shorter arm length. remembered i had to stretch my arm the whole way to the barrel while most of the guys had it easy
What are their facebooks???I die die 3 weeks finding their facebook
i wish the f88 had that little parts lol
SAR 21 lighter than M16? You got to be kidding
@cyberpioneertv But, that is not so detailed what is given to the recruit leh...
can point gun some more where is the tekan
ur head sar 21 lighter den m16?
why is syabil wearing a uniform that says CH TAN? 5:32
Hmmm. The LBV is pretty much follow US design. Ammo rack in the front, armour plate can be inserted. Combat proven so should be ok bah, hot is sure hot one...
@theranmafan u forgot put to safe
@xian1234I definitely prefer the sar21 than the m16 for SOC. I know it is heavier but the M-16 has a longer barrel so it makes it harder to clear certain obstacles.
national day holiday.. when are we recruits be required to return back to tekong?
Very little discipline and stress compared to my US Army Infantry training, but the training appears to be indepth at least.
Hi, this is 11 years late, but this is just BMT, which I’m fairly certain is the first step before the full NS experience, so being gentler should be fine before they properly learn drills and such
@darenlim i heard when off film same old usual tekan again
Generally , sar -21 and m-16 is good in their own ways . Sar-21 = less jam , low recoil , less parts , less rust, built in scope . . M-16 = higher fire rate , better iron sight , simple design . As for the weight , sar-21 without mag is slight felt heavier in the front , with mag is quite balance out . M-16 is balanced out all the way even with or without mag . Both fire similar rounds = 5.56x45 NATO rounds . 30 mag per mag .
However the M16 is longer than the SAR21.Considering that if singapore is invaded most of the fighting will be CQB and urban combat.
Having a shorter rifle is more efficient in CQB and clearing out rooms.Which is why in my opinion the SAR21 is better in terms of defending singapore
However the integrated optic has a halo sight which is a bit thick and may obscure smaller targets at longer ranges. The M16S1 is also more lefty-friendly
ORD 2 years ago, personally I prefer the SAR21 for range, very simple to archieve marksman because of the scope and it's technically stable. However, when it rains, and after the rain, the fog may blur your vision in the scope. For M16, its lighter and hence makes it a good weapon for SOC test and carrying it around, however, it is not as stable as SAR21. Both weapons has its pros and cons.
