What blew my mind is that Lewis and Clark had a pcp air rifle with them on their expedition. They regularly put on shooting demos for the natives which is what prevented their party from being slaughtered. So cool.
I learned this recently also. I always thought air rifles were a new concept, but they've been around since the 1500s. And I could see why they would be an attractive alternative to muskets considering how many shots you can get off in between refilling the tank, and how accurate and effective they were. For a while they were more accurate than the typical black powder rifle. You would have to manually refill the tanks with a pump similar to one you'd use for a bike which would take a bit of time, but some of them had tanks that you could remove and swap for a pre-filled tank and continue shooting.
@@party4lifedude If you think about it, most guns work the same way, it's just that those burning gunpowder generate the high pressure on demand and per bullet, while air rifles get it from elsewhere and store it. In many ways that can be to their advantage. They even featured in the original Sherlock Holmes stories, where the sinister Moriarty assassins used air rifles because of their quiet operation. No match, of course, for the crafty Holmes who fitted his windows with metal blinds to ward off their pellets.
A Sophisicated Intelectual. Do you have the same laws as we in the UK. 12lb pressure max unless you have F.A.C. which is hard to get. If you get caught its jail time as they are classed as firearms. So under powered its a joke. What are you allowed. David UK
Nerf guns!? FUCKING NERF GUNS!? Kids shoot each other with those things and nobody gets even minorly injured unless someone gets hit in the eye which isn't that bad all in all
Wait? What? Nerf guns!? Are hunting boomerangs allowed? What about the purchase of a kitchen knife? How do you carry it home? Sorry. I remember when ya'll were cracking down and confiscating firearms from the subjects of the Crown. As fellow colonists many here in the States hated to see it and the sadly predictable crimes that followed. At least you don't have a Chicago or London. Yet.
After sighting in at 60 feet, I could easily cover 5 shots with a nickel th-cam.com/users/postUgkxQt2uORDRfFOVSrO4idv4B90ThT6EOnEL ! Truly a pleasure to shoot! Scope was easy to adjust for eye relief. Only problem the varmints must have seen it delivered lol!Update: So impressed with shot groups at 30 yards I purchased a Hammers 3×9 with adjustable Objective scope! Now a true nail driver!
Lewis and Clark stayed safe with no injuns attacking them because they gave a demonstration to each tribe they met. It took one thousand pumps to fill it. After loading, with just a flick of the bolt it charged and loaded the next round. I don;t know why they don't make modern versions. Also, Napoleon had standing orders that if anyone was caught with an air rifle they were to be put to death immediately. Air rifle men would sneak into camps and pick off the officers .
ballistic gel shot will be similar to a 100% lead projecticle from a .45acp, expansion probably won't be as good as high quality defensive JHP ammo though.
"So you could have a fully automatic, air powered gun that shoots metal projectiles..." Ah, so you mean like a pneumatic nail gun you can get at Harbor Freight?
Nail guns dont work that way (hollywood bs), they have multiple safeties, but its a air hammer design so if you bypassed them it still would just drop to the ground after a few feet. But ya you can buy full auto air guns. They kinda suck though. The gas density is limited in the expansion chamber and a portion of the energy is used in the blowback to cycle the next projectile/pellet/BB/round whatever.
@@nikushim6665 I've literally tie wired the safety on a hilti shotgun and sent a nail 50 feet across a room and into a sheet of drywall just to see what would happen. They've got some pretty good power, just not enough to be worthwhile as a gun of any sort.
I know this video is old, but air guns are perfect post apocalyptic scenario, the pump ones, not canister loaded ones...lead can be easily melted into ammo. Super underrated guns, which are improving constantly. You'd be amazed what some of them are capable of. I have one I cannot shoot unless it's way out of town.
@@nitrojunki4249 I have a few, My favorite right now is the FX Airguns Dynamic .35 cal which essentially fires a .357 round at 200 foot lbs of energy which is the cut off limit for what most states want for dear hunting. But, here is the thing, they can be pushed to 300ft/lbs with a longer barrel (traps more energy) which will have a clean pass through from both ribs and both lungs for a humane kill. There are of course more powerful PCP air rifles out their, but most with energy beyond that right now are single shot (big bore guns), whereas this one is semi/auto with anywhere between 10 and 20 rounds per clip. Another good one to consider are the western air rifles rattler and/or sidewinder if you just so happen to want full auto ...
I've got the .45 version. Nice, accurate gun that's dirt cheap to shoot, especially if you catch the lead and recast it. I tend to use mine with a 295 grain hollow-base bullet.

TheNewbiedoodle I’m sorry your rifle seems to be shooting a bit hot. It’s roughly 600 fps over the 400fps limit for DMR rifles. Your minimum engagement distance is three miles.
As someone who is not legally allowed to own firearms anymore, I just got into the air rifles. I bought a Sig Sauer MCX air rifle and love it. I am for sure going to upgrade to a higher caliber in the future. The fact that the airrifle in your video shoots arrows too is an added bonus. I have missed shooting and after many consults with attorneys I decided to take the plunge and scratch the shooting itch. It's not the same as a real gun, but fun anyway.
well, the physics behind it is much MUCH more complicated than that. It has NOTHING to do with density per say, it has to do with the physical size of the atoms, Helium is much MUCH smaller than molecules in air, and thus do not run into each other as frequently, and thus can impart more energy into the projectile much more effectively. There's a video on youtube, probably like a hundred of them that explains it much, much better than I care to do in a comment. Either way, whether I'm right or you are, it would still be one hell of an interesting experiment to run with this weapon, given that there are air rifles out there that use helium (or even Hydrogen) to have a muzzle velocity that reaches close to orbital velocities, which is crazy. not saying that the air rifle featured in this video would be able to do that, but... there are these rifles out there.
ME SU SRT, ME AH GENUSS!!!! This is teh interwbs after all. We all love to gloat at just how much of a smart one we are after all. Honestly, I had recently watched a video on the helium thing, so, there is that ^-^
Still very illegal to carry it, unlocked, in your car for example. And actually illegal to have in public without a permit in many states. Just like BB guns are now. The laws are getting tighter and tighter.
Matt. I Love you so much. You just seem like a guy that lots of people want to hang around with. I remember the first video i saw was your review on some airsoft M4 i think, and i thought that was pretty cringey, but for some reason, i decided to watch more, and more of your videos. I discovered creepy cooter, which made me laugh my ass off, and learned about some really sick guns. I fricking love you dude. No homo. #bringcooterback
"Mess up everything in your life"......Uh, I dont know you but from watching and listening to your first few videos on the Vet page, you are extremely gifted. You are a very intelligent and sucsessful person. Some of us would give anything to have your youth and opprutunities
+DemolitionRanch Top notch video once again Matt,I'll buy the shirt and will just settle for a nuckle punch...HAHA!!. I have several Beeman airguns in.177 and .22 caliber.These are"break-barrel"guns,they break open for cocking and loading much like a single shot shotgun.I''ve seen videos of these guns being used for turkey hunting and its cool because there is no loud"BOOOM"to scare them away,the way a shotgun would,so everybody takes home a nice Tom-Turkey.
Some years back, someone came out with a rubber tube powered air rifle designed to shoot 50 cal. wire darts. They were subsequently outlawed in Ca. as idiots were taking them out and shooting highway works. Supposedly, they would easily penetrate and bullet proof vest. I've always wanted to get my hands on one. I have owned a 5 mil. cal. Sheridan for years and have brought game done with it. It's a really good, well made air rifle. I take 177 cal. wire darts and grind down the nibs til it just fits into the barrel of my 5 mil.. It will bury a 6 in. wire dart all but up to the last 1/2 in a four by four at far distance. If you should have information on where to acquire a 50 cal. air gun, please share. Thx.
Matt said" don't mess this up like I do everything in my life" which is very funny cause he has done everything right! Best wife ever , 3 beautiful children and a fantastic career , I wish this channel was around 30 years ago because he us such an inspection to me and probably would've helped me make better decisions in my life , I'm 43 now so I feel it's too late for me to follow my dreams 😣
One small point of fact: the ATF does not make any laws. They only enforce existing laws. Some of that enforcement involves trying to interpret the law, which can change over time, but that is not the same as enacting legislation.
Just for clarification, If you want an external silencer in this gun, it must be registered with the ATF, since it can be used in a firearm too. Unless you make it part of the rifle, wich in this case is not a firearm. Hence all those air rifles with shouldered barrels : all the barrel is enclosed by a tube with bafles, ant that tube cannot be used in other kind of gun.
As a technical distinction, a bullet does not "drop way quicker" with less power. It actually drops "way shorter" in terms of distance. All bullets drop at the exact same speed of 32 feet per second squared, regardless of their muzzle velocity.
You are keeping me amazed about the gun laws in the US. For a 200 grain bullet traveling at 679 fps I calculated an energy of 278 joules. In Germany where I live, any air gun with more than 7.5 joules would be illegal. And to legally buy an air gun you have to be 18 or older.
be amazed by this then buddy, in both belgium en netherlands you can buy and shoot these things perfectly legal if you 18 y/o. No limit on power at all, I use a .357 bolt action six shot rifle for fun and protection
That takes some Brass Cojones'! Cape Buffalo are considered by many to be the most dangerous game on the planet! A follow up shot is often required! 2500 lbs of Testosterone fueled Rage!
The AEA Zeus 72 cal. will go through 5-6 plastic milk jugs lined in succession, reg. rifle bullets fall apart cuz they go so fast and don't penetrate as far.
Went off and found this gun on the website. 679 fps; with a 180 gr bullet that gets 184 ft-lbs, or 250 J. So... this air gun has the power of a .380 auto. Not bad actually.
Thane Not a loophole, they're treated the same as normal guns so you get a license just like you would for say a .243. You need a licence for most guns baring antiques, obsolete calibers and low power air guns
On this channel he talks about shooting squirrels but on his Vet channel he saves little squirrels. I'm a little confused, do you save or hunt animals, or both?
to be fair, it's not too common where you hear about someone who's both a vet, and hunts. But, if you think about it, it does make a certain amount of sense. Many hunters are big into wildlife conservation and the like, You save the babies so that the biggest and strongest ones can then make more babies, some of which you might manage to hunt and make a stew with. But if you let the babies die, you might well not have any squirrels for the stew eventually.
my grandpa used to build a lot of these.. and most look like a Remington 700 Rifle.. and one of my uncles innovated his, it then had a "mag" (but it just looked like a very short lumber sticks) that hold around 14 quarter inch (height) lead slug projectile
Illinois regulates certain air-rifles as firearms. It has to do with the caliber and/or fps of the projectile. I'm getting conflicting info online, but a DNR officer at my county's Hunter Safety Course told the class anything over 800fps was a firearm. Oh, there's a snake in my boot!!!
All bb & pellet guns are illegal here, No matter what the fps. Yet i have an airsoft gun thats shoots around 710 and can go through the same shit as a bb gun. logic.
Imagine being in the apocalypse and having basically unlimited quiet ammo with a firemans air tank backpack and like 20 arrows and 50 rounds of "pellets"
@@Lil96millie Keep in mind, you will want a compressor to fill your main airtank, not a regular compressor either. Don't get me wrong, I love airguns, but you will need that compressor, and power to run it(some will run on 12v). If you have a decent sized tank, you could go a good while before refilling though. They do have high pressure bicycle type pumps, so, you could fill the rifle itself with that..it is a good workout, in a pinch, it's doable. That rifle might take 3-400 strokes, and you have to put some weight into it.
They make plenty of bolt action, or semi auto big bore air rifles, the power is really impressive, the Evanix Max Ml for example has 150j of power in .357 semi or even full auto, can kill a wild pig with that no problem. Can be very usefull for home protection becouse in many countries they arent classified as firearms, would love to see more airguns on this awesome show. Matt keep up the good work! Cheers from Euroland!!!
idk but not it you make a hollow arrow that glides on the outside of the barrel.those are classified as toys, and exist with like 800J... not that fast, but crazy heavy. (like a 1 pound projectile). the sheer momentum will result in crazy recoil tho...
I love you man! I feel like we are friends through the screen even though i've never met you! You are excellent at reaching out and talking to us ^_^ Keep making great vids!
I'd like to see more airguns on your channel Matt and here's why..... in a wtshtf scenario an airgun will be a highly effective way to feed your family. And as you can see with big bore airguns you can take out larger game. Also hatsan makes a big bore break barrel rifle in .30 cal. Its considered the most powerful break barrel on the market! Of course they don't compare to actual firearms but good luck stocking up on ammo these days! With an air gun you can easily carry 500 rnds on your person. Now I'm not saying as a replacement but a back up and it's better to have it and not need it. And as far as fully automatic they are available in high end serious pcp versions down to back yard friendly fun plinkers. Just food for thought brother
Brother I've been watching for years but I just found this older video and I'm so happy with how consistent you've been. Very professional, very quality content for a very long time. We salute you!
That is dangerous. Really dangerous. Look for the slo-mo guys' video splitting an Axe (Lynx) body spray can with an actual axe. Now size that up to a fully pressurized tank the size of a torso and shoot it with a .50 BMG. Brilliant.
M. Fariz Akbar Hutasuhut A split body spray can fly like a field away in the slo-mo guys' vid. A tank the size of that can leave some hefty shrapnel, fly up into the sky and land on some poor dude, explode, and plenty of other things I can imagine happening. To be sure it won't do anything too bad he'd probably have to embed it in a river bank or something, and then we won't be able to see the full reaction.
Duke285 those things are so fun. My brother and I bought one of them for my dad a few years back, I think we had more fun playing around with it than he did. They aren’t exactly powerful though, I killed a mouse with it once and I had to “burst” it several times before it died.
Lewis and Clark actually took an air rifle on their expedition. Hunting air rifles were ironically more common and respected 200 years ago. IF you want an ACTUAL survival rifle.. it will be one of these or a high power .22. You can carry a years worth of hunting ammo in your pocket and not notice it
True you need the tax stamp but the BATF are a bunch of bastards and will put the screws to you if you even suppress a Red Rider BB gun. They are funny that way.
negative on your comment about silenced air rifles. Site your source. No source is the same as a hand full of dog shit. You CAN legally mount your own silencer
really this is stipulation based on where you live and what your doing with its shooting at range or on private land generally silencers have no restrictions but as states legalize hunting on game land the ability for state to state laws will differ thus making it legal to hunt with a pretty silenced air gun or requiring a permit for a silencer any one in the air until community will know we don't used the term silencer... moderator or ldc is the most common term as an airgun add on are not interchangeable to standard firearms material unless user modified
@Mike Grazio If the can in question is removable, the BATFE will happily bust you for having something that could, in theory, be screwed onto an actual firearm, That much I think is pretty certain. I think James is just covering his ass here, and with the BATFE, that's not exactly a bad policy.
what if you welded a bar to the slider so instead of having to pull the slider you could pull the bar, kinda like a bolt. I'd make it much easier and quicker to reload.
Needs a total receiver rework. Have the trigger mechanism semi-auto and load in a new round from somewhere that's not the top of the gun. Then just need a magazine design-I'm not familiar enough with airguns to know if you could integrate an already existing magazine.
Im just gonna walk around Texas wearing a demo ranch shirt until Matt comes up to me and gives me a hug. I don't know where he lives .......but ill just start from one end and work my way to the other end.
I used to think air rifles were a relatively new concept, but they've been around since the 1500s. Like someone pointed out here, even Lewis and Clark used one in their expeditions in the Americas. I can see how air guns were an attractive alternative to muskets, although you would need to spend quite some time filling the tanks manually with something resembling a bike pump, between filling tanks you can get quite a few shots off without reloading and they were more accurate.
Great Video ! This air gun suprised me , looks well built as well . For the fact you could put 5 shots on target in under a minute is impressive as well . If you get the chance to go hunting with it please let us know how well it preformed . An air gun this powerful reminds me of the air gun Lewis & Clark took with them on their expedition . They amazed the tribes that they visited with it & actually killed a few buffalo with it as well . I was happy when companies started putting out .22 airguns that were capable of hunting small game & later hearing of guys creating 30 caliber guns that worked well . This is great though , .50 caliber is impressive regardless of how it travels downrange . TY again & keep up the great work .
Do it, I'd be very interested in your design, only problem is the only part of gunsmithing you need for this stuff is barrels really. Everything else functions a lot differently than a firearm. I'd however be very impressed if you were to break the mold on PCP air guns. Good luck to ya!
Your Mother Trust me the barrel is going to be the easiest think, im more worried about the air because i dont think it can give the gun enought power to make the bolt slide back and put another bullet in position to fire + the air is going to be runing out like crazy
Had an idea for spring actuation to move bolt to open position and then air charge to fire round would move bolt back into closed position... all energy from compressed air would be discharged down the barrel that way and the bolt would immediately retract as soon as the pressure was expelled. The trick then becomes making a catch so that the bolt return can't happen until the pressure is fully relieved... Why am I doing your design work for you - I should build this thing.
What blew my mind is that Lewis and Clark had a pcp air rifle with them on their expedition. They regularly put on shooting demos for the natives which is what prevented their party from being slaughtered. So cool.
a 22 shot, .46 cal round ball, semi-auto air rifle no less! 800 psi, 40 shots or so per fill, 1500 pumps on a bike pump to refill it.
I learned this recently also.

The size of the projectile doesn't necessarily mean the power, Nerf guns shoot a .51 caliber foam dart.

I haven't seen any full-auto ones larger than 25 caliber, but it wouldn't surprise me if they exist somewhere.
Here's the idea bro: take two dummies, find an old ass car, put one dummy in driver's seat and the 2nd one right behind it. Take a 50 cal and shoot from the back, right through the trunk. You can even try different calibers - all the way from hand guns to 50 cal.

TheNewbiedoodle Try 100
They might until after you kill the first guy.
TheNewbiedoodle I’m sorry your rifle seems to be shooting a bit hot. It’s roughly 600 fps over the 400fps limit for DMR rifles. Your minimum engagement distance is three miles.
It’s not a airsoft gun it’s a pellet gun 50cal
YEAH NO SHIT
As someone who is not legally allowed to own firearms anymore, I just got into the air rifles. I bought a Sig Sauer MCX air rifle and love it. I am for sure going to upgrade to a higher caliber in the future. The fact that the airrifle in your video shoots arrows too is an added bonus. I have missed shooting and after many consults with attorneys I decided to take the plunge and scratch the shooting itch. It's not the same as a real gun, but fun anyway.
My man Matt using a Hill Country Fair milk jug! I work for H-E-B. Thanks for supporting all things TEXAS, Matt!!!
use helium next time. You'll be able to get MUCH faster velocities out of the air rifle, it's a legitimate thing, don't feel like explaining it >.
helium is much lighter than nitrogen and oxygen (AKA air) therefor it goes much faster (less resistance).
there, I explained it for you.
well, the physics behind it is much MUCH more complicated than that. It has NOTHING to do with density per say, it has to do with the physical size of the atoms, Helium is much MUCH smaller than molecules in air, and thus do not run into each other as frequently, and thus can impart more energy into the projectile much more effectively. There's a video on youtube, probably like a hundred of them that explains it much, much better than I care to do in a comment.
Either way, whether I'm right or you are, it would still be one hell of an interesting experiment to run with this weapon, given that there are air rifles out there that use helium (or even Hydrogen) to have a muzzle velocity that reaches close to orbital velocities, which is crazy. not saying that the air rifle featured in this video would be able to do that, but... there are these rifles out there.

Honestly, I had recently watched a video on the helium thing, so, there is that ^-^
Perfect for someone who isnt allowed to own guns yet still want to hunt
Yah that is true
Still very illegal to carry it, unlocked, in your car for example. And actually illegal to have in public without a permit in many states. Just like BB guns are now. The laws are getting tighter and tighter.
I thought you were saying you weren't allowed to have a gun so you could use this one
nope anything that will propel a projectile is illegal, sling shots pellet guns, bows and arrows,ect .

I have several Beeman airguns in.177 and .22 caliber.These are"break-barrel"guns,they break open for cocking and loading much like a single shot shotgun.I''ve seen videos of these guns being used for turkey hunting and its cool because there is no loud"BOOOM"to scare them away,the way a shotgun would,so everybody takes home a nice Tom-Turkey.
Some years back, someone came out with a rubber tube powered air rifle designed to shoot 50 cal. wire darts. They were subsequently outlawed in Ca. as idiots were taking them out and shooting highway works. Supposedly, they would easily penetrate and bullet proof vest. I've always wanted to get my hands on one. I have owned a 5 mil. cal. Sheridan for years and have brought game done with it. It's a really good, well made air rifle. I take 177 cal. wire darts and grind down the nibs til it just fits into the barrel of my 5 mil.. It will bury a 6 in. wire dart all but up to the last 1/2 in a four by four at far distance. If you should have information on where to acquire a 50 cal. air gun, please share. Thx.
Matt said" don't mess this up like I do everything in my life" which is very funny cause he has done everything right!

its not the same for airgun if he hits it from a half a mile it'll probably dent it at most
We are talking bout .50cal firearm not the airgun. It will have enough power.
Cool video Matt! I really wish you would do an updated video on big bore airguns and air bows. They have advanced by major levels in the past 4 years.
They really have, did you step on a plug by any chance?
@@Dragon-Slay3r???
One small point of fact: the ATF does not make any laws. They only enforce existing laws. Some of that enforcement involves trying to interpret the law, which can change over time, but that is not the same as enacting legislation.
That part made me do a double take too. If the ATF was also making laws we'd have been screwed a long time ago
You've got it backwards. Those regulations are based on interpretation of federal law.
Just for clarification, If you want an external silencer in this gun, it must be registered with the ATF, since it can be used in a firearm too. Unless you make it part of the rifle, wich in this case is not a firearm. Hence all those air rifles with shouldered barrels : all the barrel is enclosed by a tube with bafles, ant that tube cannot be used in other kind of gun.
Very untrue. They are the only federal branch that is able to make up laws as they go. No elected officials or voting.
Please cite a law that the ATF has created.

As a technical distinction, a bullet does not "drop way quicker" with less power. It actually drops "way shorter" in terms of distance. All bullets drop at the exact same speed of 32 feet per second squared, regardless of their muzzle velocity.

Did anyone else laugh when he said one direction?
No, I cringed.
That's the game, I was trying to work out which one it was
You are keeping me amazed about the gun laws in the US. For a 200 grain bullet traveling at 679 fps I calculated an energy of 278 joules. In Germany where I live, any air gun with more than 7.5 joules would be illegal. And to legally buy an air gun you have to be 18 or older.
be amazed by this then buddy, in both belgium en netherlands you can buy and shoot these things perfectly
legal if you 18 y/o. No limit on power at all, I use a .357 bolt action six shot rifle for fun and protection
Ikr. No upper limits on joules is amazing!
amlistener German went from conqourers to nuetered
that's why we are AMERICANS
679fps aint much to be honest. a pellet gun you can buy at a store makes 1200+fps
It probably comes with air in it to make sure the tubes won't deform in transit.
experiment506 stops the seals drying out
those things are rated for like 200 bar its not gonna dent

Went off and found this gun on the website. 679 fps; with a 180 gr bullet that gets 184 ft-lbs, or 250 J. So... this air gun has the power of a .380 auto. Not bad actually.
Hughes Enterprises That's certainly another way of looking at it. I haven't ever gone hunting, so I didn't even think of that.

Not a loophole, they're treated the same as normal guns so you get a license just like you would for say a .243. You need a licence for most guns baring antiques, obsolete calibers and low power air guns
160 bars of pressure or 2352 pounds per square inch. I'd avoid the red if I were you. Nice airgun though.

Hahahaha I love your videos especially the little golden moments you give us like that😂
On this channel he talks about shooting squirrels but on his Vet channel he saves little squirrels. I'm a little confused, do you save or hunt animals, or both?
Harely Morenstein I'm not trying to save the animals. As I said, I'm just confused. Open your ears and your mind and you will understand me.
Michael Thompson I'm not a vegetarian! Do I sound like them? I love to eat meat!
why do people see this as an attack its just he is confused why he uses that as an example when he also tries to save them
to be fair, it's not too common where you hear about someone who's both a vet, and hunts. But, if you think about it, it does make a certain amount of sense. Many hunters are big into wildlife conservation and the like, You save the babies so that the biggest and strongest ones can then make more babies, some of which you might manage to hunt and make a stew with. But if you let the babies die, you might well not have any squirrels for the stew eventually.
He hunts them, then he heals them so he can hunt them again........duh.
thats the Video that brings me to vetranch and offtheranch :)
my grandpa used to build a lot of these.. and most look like a Remington 700 Rifle.. and one of my uncles innovated his, it then had a "mag" (but it just looked like a very short lumber sticks) that hold around 14 quarter inch (height) lead slug projectile

@Brandon S 😂🤣😂🤣
I think you'd need to see them used regularly to kill people to get the ban talk going.
Illinois regulates certain air-rifles as firearms. It has to do with the caliber and/or fps of the projectile. I'm getting conflicting info online, but a DNR officer at my county's Hunter Safety Course told the class anything over 800fps was a firearm. Oh, there's a snake in my boot!!!
Yeah, our state sucks ass
My computer does 45-60 fps on max settings gg
I actively avoid the state of Illinois
All bb & pellet guns are illegal here, No matter what the fps.
Yet i have an airsoft gun thats shoots around 710 and can go through the same shit as a bb gun. logic.

Imagine being in the apocalypse and having basically unlimited quiet ammo with a firemans air tank backpack and like 20 arrows and 50 rounds of "pellets"
@XNXX_DE yes please tell me how easy it already is and would be to get 9mm ammo during the apocalypse 😂😂😂
@@Lil96millie Keep in mind, you will want a compressor to fill your main airtank, not a regular compressor either. Don't get me wrong, I love airguns, but you will need that compressor, and power to run it(some will run on 12v). If you have a decent sized tank, you could go a good while before refilling though. They do have high pressure bicycle type pumps, so, you could fill the rifle itself with that..it is a good workout, in a pinch, it's doable. That rifle might take 3-400 strokes, and you have to put some weight into it.
Trolling
They make plenty of bolt action, or semi auto big bore air rifles, the power is really impressive, the Evanix Max Ml for example has 150j of power in .357 semi or even full auto, can kill a wild pig with that no problem. Can be very usefull for home protection becouse in many countries they arent classified as firearms, would love to see more airguns on this awesome show. Matt keep up the good work! Cheers from Euroland!!!
kut Hoer In germany even aisoft guns with over 0,5j are considered firearms >_>
idk but not it you make a hollow arrow that glides on the outside of the barrel.those are classified as toys, and exist with like 800J... not that fast, but crazy heavy. (like a 1 pound projectile). the sheer momentum will result in crazy recoil tho...

I'd like to see more airguns on your channel Matt and here's why..... in a wtshtf scenario an airgun will be a highly effective way to feed your family. And as you can see with big bore airguns you can take out larger game. Also hatsan makes a big bore break barrel rifle in .30 cal. Its considered the most powerful break barrel on the market! Of course they don't compare to actual firearms but good luck stocking up on ammo these days! With an air gun you can easily carry 500 rnds on your person. Now I'm not saying as a replacement but a back up and it's better to have it and not need it. And as far as fully automatic they are available in high end serious pcp versions down to back yard friendly fun plinkers. Just food for thought brother

This is the video that got me started on this channel
Please shoot a full pressurized tank like the one in this video with a .50 BMG from the barret.
That is dangerous. Really dangerous. Look for the slo-mo guys' video splitting an Axe (Lynx) body spray can with an actual axe. Now size that up to a fully pressurized tank the size of a torso and shoot it with a .50 BMG. Brilliant.
Prompted Hawk Well, we can always shoot it from a distance.
Like, 200 yards distance.
M. Fariz Akbar Hutasuhut A split body spray can fly like a field away in the slo-mo guys' vid. A tank the size of that can leave some hefty shrapnel, fly up into the sky and land on some poor dude, explode, and plenty of other things I can imagine happening. To be sure it won't do anything too bad he'd probably have to embed it in a river bank or something, and then we won't be able to see the full reaction.
It's essentially a bomb which would require cover which isn't possible if you're shooting at it
***** Well, it's possible, Matt's done it plenty of times, but shooting that can of compressed air is pretty stupid on its own.
Hey Matt! You want a full auto gun but without gunpowder? Check out the Umarex Steel Storm! It's a six round burst Uzi!!
Duke285 those things are so fun. My brother and I bought one of them for my dad a few years back, I think we had more fun playing around with it than he did.

Lewis and Clark actually took an air rifle on their expedition. Hunting air rifles were ironically more common and respected 200 years ago. IF you want an ACTUAL survival rifle.. it will be one of these or a high power .22. You can carry a years worth of hunting ammo in your pocket and not notice it
the back of the arrow is in your archery bag, guaranteed!!
Rowdy Broomstick yep
Rowdy Broomstick that’s what I thought too
The silencer must be permananty attached or you need a class 3 license, Also there are state restrictions on airguuns, check local regs.
True you need the tax stamp but the BATF are a bunch of bastards and will put the screws to you if you even suppress a Red Rider BB gun. They are funny that way.
negative on your comment about silenced air rifles. Site your source. No source is the same as a hand full of dog shit. You CAN legally mount your own silencer
go ahead then, do what you want.
really this is stipulation based on where you live and what your doing with its shooting at range or on private land generally silencers have no restrictions but as states legalize hunting on game land the ability for state to state laws will differ thus making it legal to hunt with a pretty silenced air gun or requiring a permit for a silencer any one in the air until community will know we don't used the term silencer... moderator or ldc is the most common term as an airgun add on are not interchangeable to standard firearms material unless user modified
@Mike Grazio If the can in question is removable, the BATFE will happily bust you for having something that could, in theory, be screwed onto an actual firearm, That much I think is pretty certain.
I think James is just covering his ass here, and with the BATFE, that's not exactly a bad policy.
what if you welded a bar to the slider so instead of having to pull the slider you could pull the bar, kinda like a bolt. I'd make it much easier and quicker to reload.
Feldmarschall YellowCat you say it like the gun has feelings
Needs a total receiver rework. Have the trigger mechanism semi-auto and load in a new round from somewhere that's not the top of the gun. Then just need a magazine design-I'm not familiar enough with airguns to know if you could integrate an already existing magazine.
DrDeathFanatic ok.

I used to think air rifles were a relatively new concept, but they've been around since the 1500s. Like someone pointed out here, even Lewis and Clark used one in their expeditions in the Americas. I can see how air guns were an attractive alternative to muskets, although you would need to spend quite some time filling the tanks manually with something resembling a bike pump, between filling tanks you can get quite a few shots off without reloading and they were more accurate.
Great Video ! This air gun suprised me , looks well built as well . For the fact you could put 5 shots on target in under a minute is impressive as well . If you get the chance to go hunting with it please let us know how well it preformed . An air gun this powerful reminds me of the air gun Lewis & Clark took with them on their expedition . They amazed the tribes that they visited with it & actually killed a few buffalo with it as well . I was happy when companies started putting out .22 airguns that were capable of hunting small game & later hearing of guys creating 30 caliber guns that worked well . This is great though , .50 caliber is impressive regardless of how it travels downrange . TY again & keep up the great work .

Hey Matt, I have a suggestion, Can you please shoot at steel toed boots please?
since im studying gunsmith, im probably gona think an automatic airgun and send it to you xD
Shamandan yes please
Do it, I'd be very interested in your design, only problem is the only part of gunsmithing you need for this stuff is barrels really. Everything else functions a lot differently than a firearm. I'd however be very impressed if you were to break the mold on PCP air guns. Good luck to ya!
Shamandan pretty sure an old friend of mine had a semi automatic air rifle, he used it to hunt rabbits
Your Mother Trust me the barrel is going to be the easiest think, im more worried about the air because i dont think it can give the gun enought power to make the bolt slide back and put another bullet in position to fire + the air is going to be runing out like crazy
Had an idea for spring actuation to move bolt to open position and then air charge to fire round would move bolt back into closed position... all energy from compressed air would be discharged down the barrel that way and the bolt would immediately retract as soon as the pressure was expelled. The trick then becomes making a catch so that the bolt return can't happen until the pressure is fully relieved... Why am I doing your design work for you - I should build this thing.
I'm impressed by the rifle, your accuracy, and the accuracy of the rifle. Is the barrel rifled?!?
