As a so called “firearms enthusiast” it took an embarrassing amount of time to ID that rifle you’re carrying as a Polish Grot. At first glance I was like “ oh shit homie has an actual ACR” but then I realized it had swappable ejection and a few other small details so it clearly wasn’t an ACR but Ik I’d seen it before somewhere because I recognized the bayonet lug attached directly to the barrel and not to many rifles have that.
True. Also the ACR does not have the capacity to accept aftermarket AR pattern grips such as the Magpul K2. It more or less is stuck with the MOE style grip. I also haven’t seen an ACR that has 6 MLOK slots on both sides of its factory handguard oriented that way. Another thing to point out is that the Grot doesn’t have the distinctive gas block that the ACR has.
@@djfingerslinger9726 good eyes my friend. Yea i open up the left side port sometimes just for cooling and to get out some of the spent powder. A nice little acceasory
If taking into account Dayz allowed booby traps before tarkov but those traps are held back. Bear traps, trip wires, grenades in cooking pots, IEDs, timer based explosives, claymores, now 40mm. In a "grounded shooter" balance is something that too harped on.
TLDR: There most likely very limited movement in this part of the frontline therefore a lack of drones in this specific AO. From what i can tell from interviews and combat footage -->meaning take what I say with a grain of salt
@@N-o-Trust Why ask such a question then? You think some random people on TH-cam are going to be able to tell you how the situation is on the ground in Ukraine? lmao

When you record these videos does your unit have their phones turned off when you are on the frontlines due to the drones or tracking etc...? Or is that not an issue in modern day combat?
Bro, Tarkov playing is Mandatory. All bullshit yes me (JiuJitsu-Dad) and my 11 year old son(JiuJitsu-Son) play tarkov. And actuallu tarkov is one of the only games that can transfer into real world military life like in ukraine. As soon as i got to my UNIT i started to recognize ammo types like m855A1 and M856. 7N40 and BP etc. As well as parts. Since all parts are accurate and realistic u will see them here and that can help u with setups and builds. The only thing tarkov needs to add is camo and kit clothes set ups
@@Deyren_x yea i unerstand why u would say that. But the reality is that its very similar. And the looting is an aspect of war in itself. So if someone gets offended or whatever than thats to bad. Reality sucks. Reality hurts, reality is hard to handle and face. If i got killed and left behind for whatever reason, my body will be gone thru for supplies. Sucks. But it is what it is
@AlexanderMachiavelli I get what you're saying. You can still make the argument that making these comparisons through TH-cam comments is still not living in reality. I'm sure you understand that no one actually knows what war truly feels like until you're in it. I believe Deyren may be speaking about the Zoomers who will comment about how the graphics look good / latest update is great while never showing any true courage in their lifetime's.
Bro you are crazy, very dangerous to pick stuff like this, especialy you was 3 guys like half meter from them, i was had a hook with 15 meters of rope, and you are staying without helmet there? not that close from fight :))
@@pinkeypie1966 shrapnel (still deadly, depends on the helmet, but you are more likely willing to survive shrapnel with a helmet than without), and head shots (you'll still die to a head shot with a helmet on but you have more chances of surviving one with a helmet than without)
@@ElRojo765 of course this guy is right in general about helmets. But what u wear is dependant on thr mission. Sometimes stealth or speed is ur armor.

Imagine hoe much furthur he can go then me. And imagine the places he can fit in rather than i.....
First of all, great video! I really appreciate you sharing your experience, from the gear talk to the overall advice and the insights into life on the front. I have a question: Since looting happens on both sides, as far as I know, was there anything you managed to "loot back"-items that the Russians had taken but then left behind, which originally belonged to the Ukrainians? Stay safe and Godspeed! 💪🇺🇦
Wait so you can keep the gear you find?? How does that work if u wanna bring something back to America. Can u bring a gun back you find cuz I wouldn’t have thought that
Glory To The Heroes. set in the Russian-Ukrainian war is an immersive singleplayer and PvPvE FPS with combined arms gameplay, involving many kinds of different military units and vehicles on the battlefield, where the action is happening in the real-world locations of actual battles.
I love your videos, as a gun and war fan boy I will love to see as many as possible, gun building and also please tell how hard it is to get some guns as I am a game developer, I want to make a game based on the Ukraine war and I wonder how hard it is to get weapons
@@AlexanderMachiavelliI phrased it wrong earlier when I said 'how hard'-what I actually meant is, how rare are these weapons? What are the chances of getting something like a Bren 2 with an LPVO or an AK-74? How do you and others acquire these weapons? Why do some people use the Bren 2 while others go for the AK-74? Also, I'd love to see some weapon builds for better understanding. By the way, has anyone used the M4 Block 3 in Ukraine?

The world can see where your mind set is due to your comments. What's wrong with you? You need to go home. You're not in Ukraine for the right reasons. Good bye
How long would you think the war last with this new election here in the us. Do u think trump will be able to negotiate with Putin on a ceasefire or a withdrawal. I know Ukraine decided to move into Kursk Russia. And with Ukrainians in russia how do u think this war could end
Man honestly idk now. I just doubt anyone excrpt putin could end this war. Ukrainian government will cease to exist if this doesnt end favorable for them. So they cant settle. And putin is too commited and cant back out and lose all that face. So he wont stop. And trump doesnt empathize with anyone except amrricans so its not that serious to him, aside from campaign promises ya kno. So idk. The only thing i worry about is supplies for ukraine. As long as that keeps comin, ukraine will be decent.
