SERVICE RIFLE.
Chinese assault Rifle.
This LARPING just gets more and more sad.
Imagine still wanting to play pretend at 40 plus years old.
@@monotech20.14Talk to pookie thumb like that one more time and I will personally come to your house and give you the Boeing whistleblower treatment
I have literally spent less than 30-mins in Halo ever, but the "Lore" is everywhere and so I have absorbed some of it, plus of course watching the historical documentary series of "Halo" I have learned a lot of the history of this time period, but no surprises please as I am not up to date...
Intro had better production quality than the paramount show
The intro is better than the Halo TV show… big facts
Master Cheeks would be proud.
He makes more in ads than paramount makes on films
Right! I shamefully wasted at least 16 months of my life playing Halo 2. I was looking forward to the show and didn't make it past episode 1 :(
faxxx
Meanwhile the Halo TV show has a AKM and a 2003 chevy tahoe in the first episode
God bless and Happy Easter, fellow Helljumpers.
Feet first into hell oorah
Some how you were the first and last person I expected to see here. I love your channel and Happy Easter!
The bugs and bots will know no shelter as we dive into hell. FOR FREEDOM! FOR DEMOCRACY!
500KG INCOMING
Halo TV show was good enough
He kept character for 15 minutes. I totally thought this video was a new direction for the channel. I about died. Thank you for this! You guys rock and it looks like you had plenty of fun. We love seeing it.
It's not Garand Thumb's first time doing a whole video in-character for Halo, he did a great one on the MA37 assault rifle a few years ago, though that onen was just a prop. This might be the first time he's gotten to play around with a real firing replica of a scifi gun.
Bro the love for Halo in this video is palpable
✊✊
My wife came into the room during the interview and asked what I was watching. I said the new rifle practical use release video. She was fully convinced this is a real military video. You really held character the whole 15 minutes lol
>filmed and edited in 24 hours
I literally had that rifle apart on my kitchen counter at 4am, fixing a problem with the gas system the morning I handed it off to my FFL. It's good to know I wasn't the only one staying up to ridiculous hours to get it done lol
This is just so dang cool. I can't even begin to say how glad I am managed to finish it in time for you to make this. Absolutely incredible!
Dude, that gun looks absolutely amazing. Congrats on building something so fucking epic.
That's so fucking cool bro
You're the man bro, unbelievable 👏
Any chance you're gonna send this bad boy out to production?
oh wait its really real
Everyone is talking about the intro, but the fact that GT did the whole video in character is the true brilliance.
"they dont want any dirt, grime, covenant blood, whatever getting in here (the bolt)" amazing that he stays within the Halo Universe
I was just about to comment the same. I love how he stayed in character for the full video lol.
GT? Garand Turismo or Gran Thumb?
My only question is where do I buy one
Idk what you are talking about...
1:44 those casings colliding in the air was cinematic beauty
Brooo, this is awesome! It's so cool that some random engineer decided to take on the project and made such a good final product. Awesome job staying in character for the full video!
The guys not even an engineer. He said he learned how to do everything from youtube...
@@friartuck103sounds like a natural engineer to me
"Dear humanity, we regret being alien bastards, we regret coming to Earth, and we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet!"
OOH RAH!
Oorah
Regret is a name, Sergeant. He’s one of the Covenant’s religious leaders, a Prophet. He’s on that carrier, and he’s calling for help.
OOORAHHHH!
oooRAH
When I joined the Corps, we had sticks. Two sticks and a rock for a whole platoon. And we had to share the rock!
You sure it wasn’t one stick and two rocks?
Man, that's some Old Corps stuff right there, Devil. I'm a little long in the tooth myself; but when I got in, they'd already moved to the smaller "pebbles" that allowed us to have and carry a whole lot more. Those rocks were stupid heavy.
I can verify this as historical fact
@@chriscarnes87BURN!!!!
Hes quoting the halo ce scene at the beginning where sgt johnson gives a different speech based on difficulty@@MrLeoAtrox
Bro it even SOUNDS like the BR. Especially in the semi auto selction. If you watch the gameplay reveal footage back in the early 2000s for Halo 2, the BR started out as a semi auto rifle, and this one sounds almost exactly like that version. Great work.
"1, I use the optic, and 2, I just hate covenant"
"there ya have it"
If only a studio would fund Garand Thumb to produce an ODST series, it's what the fans deserve.
That would be badass!!!!!! Get those guys from the "We are ODST" trailer!!!!!!
Demo Ranch = Buck
GT = Rookie
Micah = Kojo Agu (Obviously)
B. Herrera = Veronica Dare & Dutch

The guys who made the suits tried to make a movie but they ran out of money :(
@@colinwhalen2632crowdfund it again
I'd watch it
That intro went way harder than anything Halo-themed Hollywood has ever made
Went harder? What does that even mean.
@@davelpz3340 harder as in looked and felt cooler and more epic
Well they used to make really good ads for the games the ODST ones come to mind specifically
The halo 3 and odst live action ads were amazing
@@davelpz3340looks so much better ya dingus
This is by far one of the coolest videos you guys have done. Great work!
So sick. Staying in character for nearly the whole video?! And the intro was insane.
This is sad. It shows the big box offices don't care. This is insane because of how good the quality is. Hats off to the bois.
Corporate Hollywood only saw Halo as a franchise to exploit for money. The soul of the franchise comes from the people who actually care about the lore.
1:46 The casing ejects, hits the plywood, and bounces back, colliding with the next ejected casing. Aesthetic.
Nice! I had to go back and watch that. Full metal on metal gun porn aesthetics right there. Very pleasing
I read this right as it happened haha
Noticed that too
Angels sing.❤
Good eye
absolutely incredible production value in that opening scene, and I love how you describe the weapons! really thinking about picking one up! been hunting moas with an MA5B, but this looks to be even better!
Thank you guys for this awesome video!
This is legit one of the coolest Halo vids ever made, and it's a goddamn April Fools' video... Bro I don't know how you do it, your quality is legit bar none, 11/10 vid as per usual!
The suits looks familiar 😉
It's not even April bro....
@@DixieSchizo He literally mentioned in the video that it's an April Fools' video...bro
@Batmann_ does that negate what I said? No, it doesnt.
@@DixieSchizo Ah, you're just randomly letting everyone know it's not April yet then? uh huh, sure, bro. Lighting up that gas real well.
That is the most realistic depiction of a UNSC weapon i seen so far. GOD the halo community does have some awesome people
It's like engineers just see something cool on screen, and go "I want to make that" .. cellphones (fm Star Trek), Br55's fm Halo ... just awesome.

Started watching Garand Thumb because of his Halo Assault Rifle video years ago... great to see how far the channel has come.
This is one of the best garande thumb videos I’ve ever seen. And I enjoy all your content already 😳
Nothing brings me more joy than seeing Charlie holding an SMG and think its shooting bullets down range, when in reality he's been given an airsoft gun out of a safety precaution.
The Halo TV Series in a better timeline
Let’s be real…production quality was probably better than what we’ll get out of Star Wars anytime soon.
@isaaccano6858 the script is still terrible, a fan made halo movie with a low budget would be better because it understands the plot of halo
@@thadisturbedone1606it should have been animated too. You can’t make the chief and covenant as tanky or good looking.
@blu5021 I think live action was fine but the script is just ass, if it were me I'd copy the books and the only change I'd make is starting off with mjolnir mk 5(not the biggest fan of mjolnir mk 4)
@@thadisturbedone1606I agree but I love mkiv 🥲
This channel has come so far... this was epic! 🤘🏻
Great video!!! I was hoping the story would continue.
24 hours editing? HOLY CRAP. These guys are way better than production studios.
Micah for the win!
Passion vs. paycheck
More like competent vs incompetent.
I feel like that shot of him putting the helmet was a deliberate diss of the halo tv show
Looked like the scene from the ODST trailer
God I hope so
Then the rest of the video of him without it was a shout out to the TV show.
This entire video is a deliberate diss of the Halo tv show.
"of him putting the helmet"... where? you screwed up the most important part of your sentence.
I appreciate that you went full tilt into the bit.
Holy hell that was awesome, you guys rock!
Paramount should have paid Garand Thumb, they could have saved loads and had a better show.
the dream team for a halo show is just guys like gerand who grew up playing halo, you can tell they love the source material
It’s actually a small production studio called November black productions, they’re working on a short ODST film called November Black.
Sounds like they saved a lot from not using that gun. Did you hear the cost? $60k!
Paramount isn't interested in a good HALO show...they just wanted the name to draw in fans. Only way I can explain how shit the show is and how poorly they seem to understand both the source material and the fans
@@user-zg1vm8ub7r Adjusting for inflation, $60k in 2552 is equal to about $270 in 2024.
Can we just appreciate that this guy made a better trigger on a bullpup up than most other actual manufacturers….
You have to wonder whether he smithed it into shape or if he designed it that nice.
Probably works better than the bloody L85
@@JJJR09 that’s not a high bar to meet.
@@JJJR09 ..certainly many things work better than the A1 version, but the A2 and A3 aren't as bad as those decades of 'herd-lore' suggested left over from the A1, which does do tar & mar the A3's abilities in the eyes of many net-warriors.
@@JJJR09that thing is the whole reason most people hate bullpups ...its just the first thing that comes to mind
Props on the intro. Excellent work.
This gotta be the coolest video i’ve ever watched from yall. Good stuff.

@@Nick-ov9em Thanks!
That TQ staging is needing work tho. Can’t use it like that.
Same! It's classic!
“On reach…”hearing those words brought tears to my eyes, and joy to my heart. 😭😭
The production quality was top tier. Well done.
This is quite possible one of the coolest TH-cam videos I’ve seen in a long time, the production quality of the intro even outshines a lot of TV and film and done in 24 hours?! Micah you’re a bit of a legend mate 👏👏
Huge props to all of you that made this happen this is dope 🔥
a dude in his garage came up with something more innovative than anything in the NGSW program, idc about the licensing in the silhouette, whatever he did to overcome the bullpup trigger issue needs to come to market.
Halo bullpup trigger when? 👉👈
@@SprayEndPrayI got hard watching you touch your fingers together like that. Do it again 😮
Bsquared made this bullpup in a cave, with a box of scraps
A3 Tactical makes the Triad. The Rave 140 trigger is great but you can put in whatever AR trigger you like the best.
@mythicknz8203 .. well I'm not Bsquared
Bro, if you guys made a fanmade Halo ODST film, I'd buy it. Film color grading, the shots, the audio, the editing is all A Tier.
And they did it in 24 hours apparently. Imagine if they had access to proper actors and writers and even a million dollar effects budget per episode... WIth all their knowledge and connections. I bet they'd even have the common sense and decency to go so far as to actually sit down and replay the games and read the books first smh
would definitely be leagues better than the disappointment of a halo show that there is rn
I seriously thought it was from a TV series in the beginning of the video! Great video guys thanks for sharing your fun.
Great Video Garand , this was so well done, keep up all the amazing work
the beard and mustache suits you
Seeing the BR55 fire live rounds and in action like that is something I've always wanted to see.
That first minute made me want an odst centered halo series
Its really the best way to do it

Love the Halo LARP gives early 2000's youtube vibes. Reminds me of early Rocket Jump days. Fun stuff!
Definitely the good ole days lml no commercial days
Production value on that intro was absolutely amazing
The effort this guy puts into these videos are beyond unreal. The best gun channel on youtube
Woahh didnt expect the intro! Naisu!
It's a small detail but an unsung hero: I love the amount of weathering and detail work that went into this production. A thing I have noticed about a lot of modern films/television/media, etc. Is a lack of weathering and scratches from the day to day reality of living in a real world. Fantastic work, you guys.
It's one of the many ways movies like Aliens, Blade Runner, and a few others work so well for world building. They went in with the assumption that the future will be ancient. Anything we think is new or ahead of our time will have been long overdue for replacement, overhaul, or just plain obsolete... with a bunch of really new shiny stuff mixed in.
Larry Hastings III of Vulture Productions is the real deal with his work. He makes amazing things.
The first minute was better than most of the action scenes on the paramount series. It’s crazy how much better the content can be when the people making it actually are passionate about the source material. The BR55 is my favorite weapon from a video game, you guys did a fantastic job with this video! And shoutout to the guy that designed it. So sick! Thanks again for the great content.
Case in point the Astartes TH-cam video series. It's damn good
The armor and the gun is amazing. I loved the in character review.
Awesome work.
Garand Thumb is hands-down one of the best, funniest, and iconic firearms YT channels in existence right now.

Best Halo game?
Yup. That one and Forward Unto Down were incredibly awesome. So sad 343i managemnt is just complete crap and lacks vision.
@@samfisherxboxog8925 not saying that you're necessarily wrong, but the halo project falling through gave us district 9 so I'd say it was a decent consolation!
appreciate the LT's input on the new platform. would appreciate a review on a model that had been put through the paces with so many thousands of rounds. how the components had held up like the optics, displays, round count, internals, if that ring on the flash hider had changed, etc. been a while since i jumped but it's great to know what's getting put out to the guys.
Seriously the best channel right here.
How is this already so much better than the TV show, loveing it ❤
Probably because unlike the TV show creators, he's actually played the games.
Yeah it's actually not very difficult
How can you compare the 2 they are 2 very different products
Garand thumb is an actual fan of the franchise
First the M90 at Forgotten Weapons, now the BR55, actually firing weapons?
We're gonna have the full set soon.
I remember Nathan Frisque making update posts on it on facebook😊
This is my new favorite video on the channel!
Genuinely, your best video yet. Halo, is awesome, Garand Thumb is awesome, and it just makes the best blend. Also, the quality of the videos and the acting has gotten so much better over time. Keep up the good work, guys.
I appreciate the fact the death noises were pulled from Halo Landfalls ODST deaths, really grounded it. Good work guys
This is easily in the top three for the best and coolest science-fiction rifles I've seen in my entire life, and seeing it as a functional firearm is surreal. As a kid, I always hoped gun development would get to the point where people could make stuff like this, real and working replicas of our favorite weapons from games, movies, and TV. This beautiful rifle is fucking awesome, and I'm glad it still gets the recognition it deserves, even all these years later.
I’d tend to agree, super cool. I’d like your comment, but you have 69 likes, so nice 😂
Hope we see an M8 Avenger from mass effect
@@sacredeyes3508 That's another in my top three. Love the iconic look of it so much, and especially how it functions. Mass Effect guns are very unique.
Third would be the M41A Pulse Rifle from Aliens.

awesome intro guys!!! great vid
This reminds me of that Halo landfall video from 11 years ago. So much attention to detail it really made my hair stand up watching that. I really love how that video is so humanistic and real feeling. Its a Shame that it never went anywhere.
Intro made the Covenant more terrifying and deadly than the TV series
Heck yeah man. Good stuff!
You guys are the best keep up the hard work.
We need a ODST show with garand thumb as lead actor
that intro was so good. you guys actually understand what halo was all about
a war movie not a space opera
Amazing video
Holy Cow man. I need to come up to where you live and do some gun stuff with you. That intro was awesome. You have the best intros in the whole of TH-cam
Also stay safe during the eclipse
BRO the intro literally gave me goose bumps. what a fucking production. well done. UNSC all the way
We need to start a gofundme for a Garand Thumb full feature film.
Hey GT, I'm so glad that you we're finally able to do a video about the Misriah Armory BR55! That powerhouse of a rifle has seen me through many operations across many fronts, and I was blown away when Misriah reached out to me about field testing their BR55HB model. Personally, I prefer the heavier barrel when it comes to recoil control, especially when I'm popping Unggoy and Kig-Yar heads at range.
One of my buddies works for Misriah funny enough, and I'll have him get ahold of the Public Relations department back at headquarters in Shoreline on Mars and maybe get you a sponsorship!
(Happy belated April Fools day GT 🤟)
Amazing. Well done
Nice modification of your FAMAS out there GarandThumb!
11:03, I just found my second favorite ping noise behind the M1 Grand itself.

That opening cinematic was insane… the production quality, chef’s kiss 🤌
I’m so glad he never broke character.
Hands down the coolest video I’ve ever seen in years.
That's is a extremely specific 5.7 reference at 2:18 Charlie makes at the beginning, if he's referencing one of the very few times 5.7 (smg is a 5 caliber) was ever used, in which the guy being shot begged them to stop shooting him after multiple wounds
Or mp7. 4.6mm, that's just poking a lot of tiny holes. But .17hmr is kind of impressive because of expanding bullets
i’d like to see that
Some of the grunts in halo ask you to stop shooting them. I think thats the reference
It's a halo reference, the little grunts say it sometimes
