Ten or twelve years ago, no one on this entire planet would have ever anticipated the next big war to involve a hybrid between SOF and trench warfare. This is quite literally surreal.
That to me is and always will be a foolish way of thinking. Never give up old school knowledge and skills. Never in any aspect of human survival give up old ways. Adapt the new ways, but keep the old ways as well. Old brought new.
Arthur, the guy in the video shooting the 4 Russians is still alive. He said they already knew how many were going to be in the trench, he also said they had to crawl on their stomach to sneak up on the trench which took some time. Idk if he’s still active but he did get engaged recently.
I saw the uncensored footage and take this how you will but I was less shocked and more humbled than anything. It’s not like the movies I tell ya. Those men were breathing and then they weren’t. There was no in between. Don’t take life for granted ladies and gentlemen, this could be you one day. I hope this senseless war ends quickly.
I don't think it will end quickly, I think this is the biggest money laundering scheme in our lifetimes. And don't forget its white males killing white males, the general populace has zero issue with that. Remember how disgusted people were if you shared combat footage from Afghanistan? Compare that to everyone celebrating the deaths of Russian "Orcs" and "N.A.Z.I.s" all over social media. Things will only change if Xi kicks off WW3 due to China's upcoming population collapse/ famine/ flooding/ etc etc.

I was involved in a shooting last month in py department. Guy ran at me and other officers with a handgun after killing multiple people the day prior. Me and another officer were struck but unharmed outside of a graze and a bruise. Thank god for body armor.

It is truly heartbreaking to watch this modern trench warfare since it's a combat format that hasn't been used in this scale since WW2. I do feel bad for the conscripts, since they don't really have any choice with getting involved in this war. I would like to see this war come in an end, but I know it won't happen for a long time.
5.56 is excellent out to 200 to about 300m depending on barrel length/projectile. Inside 100yd it's devastating on soft tissue, let alone cases like this where it's impacting at essentially muzzle velocity. Certainly you can say the same about many other intermediate and short-action rounds, but really they only replace 5.56 when you need to reach out to 300m and further, THAT is where a .308/7.62 NATO, 6.5CM, 6mmARC, 6.8x51, etc makes sense. But in CQB settings, why would you want the extra recoil/muzzle blast (if not running a can) extra weight/lower ammo load-out/etc/etc if you don't need it? Anyone claiming 5.56 isn't excellent from zero to ~250m is trying to sell you something, lol Interesting break-down, Mike. I find it fascinating that as little as 5 years ago all the defense experts were claiming the next major war would be entirely push-button, unmanned, AI/Robo war. Yet here in Ukraine it might as well be 1916, as the fighting techniques seem more similar to WWI for the guys in the literal trenches! Now I'm seeing videos in my rec's saying that if WWIII occurs it's going to be closer to the 30 years war in the 17th century than WWII. Predicting future conflicts is a damned hard job! So many variables that have to be considered amongst so many different groups of people, in pretty much any & all biomes and terrain on the face of the earth. So I can see why so many people throughout history have failed to predict what future wars will look like.
When I watched this clip a couple of months back it messed me up for a few days and I thought about it for weeks. Makes me glad I never went to combat, even though that’s all I wanted as a young man.
Looks like a Geissele super duty upper. Could be the entire rifle, hard to tell. That's definitely a geissele mk16 rail without side anti rotation tabs which implies it has the center tab/keyed receiver. Cool to see one in the wild, doing work.

Training is a must, in training if you make a mistake you can still go home. but in the real thing a mistake in combat everything changes maybe permanently.

@@HypeBeast764 The problem is Ukraine is a puppets state of the U.S. and the more money we send them only prolongs the dying. All of this death and destruction would be over by now if we would stop giving our support.
I'm okay with combat between trained soldiers who chose their path in life, but something just doesn't sit right seeing trained soldiers dropping people who were just thrown into a bad situation. I know the conscripts would drop the Ukraine soldiers in an instant if they had a chance, but still it's messed up and with today's technology and cam footage, we're seeing it all unfold in HD.
Yeah, agreed. I saw the uncensored version and its not an easy watch. They were just funneling in one after the other getting dumped and hearing their last screams is rough. Over in a flash. I am positive many of these young Russians don't want to be there and have absolutely no training, people celebrating their deaths need to check themselves.
@@YEEYEE-dy8tkpoor training and poor discipline. They should have had their weapons on them, not have to run down the trench to try and find them. If they were trying to surrender they wouldn't have been running and they would have had their hands above their heads.
@@YEEYEE-dy8tk this position was behind enemy lines and the attack was a surprise, they weren't ready. In the confusion probably trying to get to one of the dugouts or something.
I have always been quick... fast shooter...good placement... but I have never been good at identifying friend from foe . I am struck by the fact that the last guy could have been me, trying to identify if it's an ally or enemy while conducting my duties
I couldn’t have said it better. This is exactly what I was thinking. It seemed as if his brain didn’t even process that there was somebody looking at him.
What’s sad about this is. I’m 95% sure these troopers killed were Ukraine citizens that defected in the western region. Just by looking at their gear and shit ak47. Russian ops are geared about like these Ukraine troopers.
Yep, confusion followed by instant death. A split second of knowing you messed up as you face your eternity. There are no do-overs. That was lambs to the slaughter.
@@anthonyr587 Yeah, that's brutal... But is it worse than slowly dying over months/years with a terminal illness, knowing your end is near and just waiting for it? That scares me even more: waiting for death to come, the anticipation, the existential dread... Makes me want to crack open a bottle of bourbon just writing this... But dude in the clip was so young. Had everything to lose, and he did... Freaky stuff
Notice these guys are shooting semi-auto; they're not spraying and praying; they're shooting controlled pairs or three's. Their opponents are firing full auto and getting smoked.
I remember seeing the unsensored version and rememver thinking - That last guy was really just some poor untrained conscript - you can see his life flash before his eyes. Terrible.
Wed need to stop funding Ukraine and help Russia instead. We have caused so much harm to the Russian peacekeepers. We need to make up for everything we've done to Russia by sending Russia the weapons it needs. People need to understand that Biden is Ukraine and Ukraine is Biden. Stop complicating more than that. Ukraine is the one who attacked Russia by attacking Russian forces when they entered Ukraine to liberate Eastern and Southern Ukraine from Ukrainian occupation. Had Ukraine just given Russia what it wanted, then all of this could have been avoided. Russia is just defending itself. Sadly now other countries will look at Ukraine and think they can do the same. They will think they have the right and ability to resist Russia when Russia rightfully liberates Russian speaking parts of the Baltic states, Finland, Poland, and Georgia. So many people are going to be harmed because of this resistance to Russian power. It's very sad. We need to dissolve NATO before this happens, though. If the US stays in NATO then it will lead to WWIII when the NATO war mongers try to stop Russia from doing what it needs to do in Poland, Finland, Baltic states, and maybe even Germany. The US needs to leave NATO before it gets into a war with Russia that it cannot handle. The entirety of NATO is no match for the superior and powerful Russian military. You'd think Russia's success in Ukraine would have put the NATO warmongers into their place, but they don't seem to care that NATO forces are very inferior.
@JordanCrawford12: He wasn't a conscript. He was a popular Russian blogger named WarGonzo. He had been posting from the font lines since the war began, but he was in the wrong place at the wrong time on that day back in June. That's when the video was filmed.
Life ends for us all. If you're going to go, I guess this as good as any other way. Also, I'm a firm believer in training with bb/airsoft guns to learn to shoot without sights. Being able to visualize where your rounds are going to go without looking down sights is a skill on it's own.
idk brother, something tells me that with those weapon setups, gear, movements and tactics, along with the voice distortion, those weren't ukranians....
Mike, if those poorly trained Russian "conscripts" are so awful, why hasn't Ukraine been able to remove Russia from the Donbas? Especially with all of the high level training and equipment provided by NATO.
@@pondsandlakes1591 @maldad9073 yeah Russia's minefields are 10x larger than what NATO's intel expected their mine-laying capabilities to be. At certain points UKR tanks have to literally make a huge multi-km detour to avoid the minefield so large it is; I read that earlier today, with an exact location as example too, but I can't remember. Anyhow, there's a great article about this on Funker530, in response to NYT's bs, detailing everything. I recommend y'all read it
I was 101st Airborne in Iraq and Afghanistan. Danced in the desert a few times been in the shit alot but this trench warfare stuff is crazy to watch. Like WWI All over again. Id use iron sights if possible in them trenches.
@@YTSuxAxx not really. In such tight confined combat situations your gonna be looking overtop your weapon whenever you engage. You just don't have the site distance or the time to aim down your sights. The time it would take to put your your weapon on target using sites, you won't have to worry about it because you'll already be smoke checked and your team members will be stripping all your kit off your dead body. Its definitely treacherous in those trenches it seems. You better have your shit wired tight and not lose focus or situational awareness for a second. Even if your best friend next to you gets dusted off. You can't hesitate or let your mind think of anything else except watching your corners covering your team mates 6 until you know every single enemy combatant in that trench lines brain is shut off forever. Then you can concentrate on the other shit thst just happened. Stress level and anxiety ,and Adrenaline dumos those dudes are feeling are incredible but they still have to remain calm. Not easy to do at all. God bless em.
@@broncoBACON It's worked great in my experience better than any 55-62gr ball ammo for sure. 69gr OTM works very well too, but the MK 262 77gr just hits different. The SOST Mk 318 Mk 0 and Mk 1 rounds in 62gr were great for both frag and penetration as well.
I don't have any experience in this arena, but if it's good enough for the top tier military guys it's good enough for me. I haven't bought 5.56 in a while but I've been stocking up on anything in the 7x grain variety. MK262 clone rounds or otherwise. At this point it's not worth buying anything else for potential work, iyk what I mean. Practice ammo is whatever brass is cheapest.
So if I subscribed to your patreon would I be able to See the full bullets impacting bodies version, or the “Mike glover” unedited one that I find everywhere else on the internet. Real question
The army was training in this before the invasion even happened in my head I was like this ww1 tactics why would we need this type of training now I know why.
He called him a b!tch (Sooka, or suka) in Russian. First he says good, good, which is хорошо. The x makes an "H" sound, p makes an "R" sound, while the ш makes an "sh" sound. They role the R, so the word I hear is "hordoshow" repeated. I guess he is communicating he is good to his buddy or saying, in a sense, that he comprehends something being said to him.
Seriously. Dems just voted for the 2nd time TO NOT allow oversight & auditing of that $100+ Billion we sent to Ukraine (to one of the most corrupt govt's in europe). Same country where most of Joe's money laundering, bribery, extortion & racketeering & blackmail took place🤔
from a brake down of the vid this was a rear russian line trench or support/reserve line trench and the vatniks thinking they are far enough in the rear the enemy would not be present, well they where wrong appently the UA SOF team infil by boat and worked their way to said trench line and thats where we see UA SOF put in that work.
Funker530 had this a couple months ago and the analysis was this trench was being attacked from front and these dudes were Rollin in from the behind hence the surprise
I would think with an overpayment of 6.2B they would have the latest and greatest optics, oh that’s right that money doesn’t completely filter down to the military 😂
A lot of small arms are being sent by US police departments and ATF. There was a story a few days ago talking about buy-back program weapons in Miami and guns the ATF (probably) unlawfully seized being sent to Ukraine. So the reason they have a random assortment of gear is because that was Tom from Tennessee's carbine that was seized because he bought a binary trigger, lol. The money? That stays with the politicians, gets filtered back to the US, etc. It's all a scam, and WE pay for it!
The whole thing is nothing more than a money laundering scheme and backdoor funding operation for the Democrat* party. Kinda like the FTX scam. But hey... Nothin to see here folks! Move along... Edit: *Democrat AND many establishment Republicans/RINO's.
Did you know that Ukraine opposed the Iraq invasion and said that it was wrong and we shouldn't be there. But then when we asked everyone for assistance they sent troops anyways to back us up? Ukraine sent more troops to back us up than almost every other nation out there.
this is the biggest money launder transfer in history .... WEF ,Nato , blackrock , military industrail complex etc .. all getting paid from our tax dollars , videos of ukraine soldeirs on the ground asking were is all the money going they are not seeing any new equipment or supplies .....
this is also to drain our military of equipment and supplies, just like us leaving behind billions in equipment afghanastan . while many us generals , and pentagon already talking about a war with china in 2025 ...
This is almost a small incite of what happened 100+ years ago in france. This is why the trench gun or trench sweeper shouldnt have been put on the list of banned weapons.

The weapons/fighting is interesting to analyze however all Americans do themselves a disservice if they are cheering on this war.
I'm learning from it. History has shown one thing in particular: war will continue for a very long time.
Amen
Yeah God forbid Ukraine defends their freedom and their country.
@@HypeBeast764 The problem is Ukraine is a puppets state of the U.S. and the more money we send them only prolongs the dying. All of this death and destruction would be over by now if we would stop giving our support.
⌚️ Europa the last battlè
I'm okay with combat between trained soldiers who chose their path in life, but something just doesn't sit right seeing trained soldiers dropping people who were just thrown into a bad situation. I know the conscripts would drop the Ukraine soldiers in an instant if they had a chance, but still it's messed up and with today's technology and cam footage, we're seeing it all unfold in HD.
Yeah, agreed. I saw the uncensored version and its not an easy watch. They were just funneling in one after the other getting dumped and hearing their last screams is rough. Over in a flash. I am positive many of these young Russians don't want to be there and have absolutely no training, people celebrating their deaths need to check themselves.
@@anthonyr587 Did you notice 3 of the 4 Russians in this video didn’t have guns? Has anyone explained why that is?
@@YEEYEE-dy8tkpoor training and poor discipline. They should have had their weapons on them, not have to run down the trench to try and find them.
If they were trying to surrender they wouldn't have been running and they would have had their hands above their heads.
@@anthonyr587 we got some psychos out there, not the ukrainians but the leaders that fought tooth and nail to make this happen
@@YEEYEE-dy8tk this position was behind enemy lines and the attack was a surprise, they weren't ready. In the confusion probably trying to get to one of the dugouts or something.
Love these videos
I have always been quick... fast shooter...good placement... but I have never been good at identifying friend from foe . I am struck by the fact that the last guy could have been me, trying to identify if it's an ally or enemy while conducting my duties
I couldn’t have said it better. This is exactly what I was thinking. It seemed as if his brain didn’t even process that there was somebody looking at him.
What’s sad about this is. I’m 95% sure these troopers killed were Ukraine citizens that defected in the western region. Just by looking at their gear and shit ak47. Russian ops are geared about like these Ukraine troopers.
Yep, confusion followed by instant death. A split second of knowing you messed up as you face your eternity. There are no do-overs. That was lambs to the slaughter.
@@anthonyr587 Yeah, that's brutal... But is it worse than slowly dying over months/years with a terminal illness, knowing your end is near and just waiting for it? That scares me even more: waiting for death to come, the anticipation, the existential dread... Makes me want to crack open a bottle of bourbon just writing this...
But dude in the clip was so young. Had everything to lose, and he did... Freaky stuff
It’s as real as it’s gets
We paid for that gear, I wonder if our Gov will arm us like this if we go into a red dawn situation???? 🤔 I'll let yall answer that.
Could be worse you could've paid hundreds of dollars for " survival skills "
That’s why 2A exist, stay strapped
The gov might be the Red Dawn situation, lol.
Ukraine is a dictatorship, they don’t allow freedom
Exactly what I was going to say…. It’s rediculous
Hey Brother, Hope all is well with family. God Bless you and all the tip of the spear boys. We all love and Honor all your deeds.
I was hoping Mike would react to this trench warfare. All of the helmet cam and drone footage has been crazy.
Great video!
Notice these guys are shooting semi-auto; they're not spraying and praying; they're shooting controlled pairs or three's. Their opponents are firing full auto and getting smoked.
Great vid Mike
I'm first time on your chanal. You have good diction and clear explanation.
I remember seeing the unsensored version and rememver thinking - That last guy was really just some poor untrained conscript - you can see his life flash before his eyes. Terrible.
Wed need to stop funding Ukraine and help Russia instead. We have caused so much harm to the Russian peacekeepers. We need to make up for everything we've done to Russia by sending Russia the weapons it needs. People need to understand that Biden is Ukraine and Ukraine is Biden. Stop complicating more than that. Ukraine is the one who attacked Russia by attacking Russian forces when they entered Ukraine to liberate Eastern and Southern Ukraine from Ukrainian occupation. Had Ukraine just given Russia what it wanted, then all of this could have been avoided. Russia is just defending itself.
Sadly now other countries will look at Ukraine and think they can do the same. They will think they have the right and ability to resist Russia when Russia rightfully liberates Russian speaking parts of the Baltic states, Finland, Poland, and Georgia. So many people are going to be harmed because of this resistance to Russian power. It's very sad.
We need to dissolve NATO before this happens, though. If the US stays in NATO then it will lead to WWIII when the NATO war mongers try to stop Russia from doing what it needs to do in Poland, Finland, Baltic states, and maybe even Germany. The US needs to leave NATO before it gets into a war with Russia that it cannot handle. The entirety of NATO is no match for the superior and powerful Russian military. You'd think Russia's success in Ukraine would have put the NATO warmongers into their place, but they don't seem to care that NATO forces are very inferior.
@JordanCrawford12: He wasn't a conscript. He was a popular Russian blogger named WarGonzo. He had been posting from the font lines since the war began, but he was in the wrong place at the wrong time on that day back in June. That's when the video was filmed.
you can find the uncernsored version online
Life ends for us all. If you're going to go, I guess this as good as any other way.
Also, I'm a firm believer in training with bb/airsoft guns to learn to shoot without sights. Being able to visualize where your rounds are going to go without looking down sights is a skill on it's own.
Thanks Mike as always
idk brother, something tells me that with those weapon setups, gear, movements and tactics, along with the voice distortion, those weren't ukranians....
Truth!!! ,,,,you conspiracy theorist (aka a critical thinker with a brain) , why dont you just stop criticalthinking and just believe CNN
SAS would be my guess
Mike, if those poorly trained Russian "conscripts" are so awful, why hasn't Ukraine been able to remove Russia from the Donbas? Especially with all of the high level training and equipment provided by NATO.
it's easier to write/say than do
@@pondsandlakes1591
Are they not part of the Geneva convention? I thought those were illegal, which is why we have RC claymores instead.
@@pondsandlakes1591 @maldad9073 yeah Russia's minefields are 10x larger than what NATO's intel expected their mine-laying capabilities to be.
At certain points UKR tanks have to literally make a huge multi-km detour to avoid the minefield so large it is; I read that earlier today, with an exact location as example too, but I can't remember.
Anyhow, there's a great article about this on Funker530, in response to NYT's bs, detailing everything. I recommend y'all read it
Agreed...weird how we never see Russian footage attacking Ukraine.

Thank you for the video.. I appreciate you Sgt Major.🐕🦺🇺🇲
Thank you all for your Service 🇺🇸
Just out of curiosity how long with how many people does it take to build a trench system like this?
I was 101st Airborne in Iraq and Afghanistan. Danced in the desert a few times been in the shit alot but this trench warfare stuff is crazy to watch. Like WWI All over again. Id use iron sights if possible in them trenches.
@@YTSuxAxx not really. In such tight confined combat situations your gonna be looking overtop your weapon whenever you engage. You just don't have the site distance or the time to aim down your sights. The time it would take to put your your weapon on target using sites, you won't have to worry about it because you'll already be smoke checked and your team members will be stripping all your kit off your dead body. Its definitely treacherous in those trenches it seems. You better have your shit wired tight and not lose focus or situational awareness for a second. Even if your best friend next to you gets dusted off. You can't hesitate or let your mind think of anything else except watching your corners covering your team mates 6 until you know every single enemy combatant in that trench lines brain is shut off forever. Then you can concentrate on the other shit thst just happened. Stress level and anxiety ,and Adrenaline dumos those dudes are feeling are incredible but they still have to remain calm. Not easy to do at all. God bless em.
I recognized the word "cyka" (suka) lol.
All I can say is that, I know for a fact 5.56 with a 77gr OTM makes short work of targets.
Recently switched to 77gr for that reason. Not speaking from experience tho
@@broncoBACON It's worked great in my experience better than any 55-62gr ball ammo for sure. 69gr OTM works very well too, but the MK 262 77gr just hits different. The SOST Mk 318 Mk 0 and Mk 1 rounds in 62gr were great for both frag and penetration as well.
I don't have any experience in this arena, but if it's good enough for the top tier military guys it's good enough for me.
I haven't bought 5.56 in a while but I've been stocking up on anything in the 7x grain variety. MK262 clone rounds or otherwise. At this point it's not worth buying anything else for potential work, iyk what I mean.
Practice ammo is whatever brass is cheapest.
@@egregiousblunder5395 Is this from your combat experience?
So if I subscribed to your patreon would I be able to
See the full bullets impacting bodies version, or the “Mike glover” unedited one that I find everywhere else on the internet. Real question
The army was training in this before the invasion even happened in my head I was like this ww1 tactics why would we need this type of training now I know why.
He called him a b!tch (Sooka, or suka) in Russian. First he says good, good, which is хорошо. The x makes an "H" sound, p makes an "R" sound, while the ш makes an "sh" sound. They role the R, so the word I hear is "hordoshow" repeated. I guess he is communicating he is good to his buddy or saying, in a sense, that he comprehends something being said to him.
The Briben clan probably get 10% of all gear.
Seriously. Dems just voted for the 2nd time TO NOT allow oversight & auditing of that $100+ Billion we sent to Ukraine (to one of the most corrupt govt's in europe). Same country where most of Joe's money laundering, bribery, extortion & racketeering & blackmail took place🤔
Crazy to see trench warfare in 2023. Oorah, Mike. Keep up the good work.
Great video.
I saw this on X earlier this week was insane
Jeeeeze, looks like someone has the enemy AI on recruit mode.
uncensored version is on instagram too btw
This was INTENSE!!!
from a brake down of the vid this was a rear russian line trench or support/reserve line trench and the vatniks thinking they are far enough in the rear the enemy would not be present, well they where wrong appently the UA SOF team infil by boat and worked their way to said trench line and thats where we see UA SOF put in that work.
Funker530 had this a couple months ago and the analysis was this trench was being attacked from front and these dudes were Rollin in from the behind hence the surprise
I would think with an overpayment of 6.2B they would have the latest and greatest optics, oh that’s right that money doesn’t completely filter down to the military 😂
a lot of that money is getting skimmed. A lot of the weapons are being embezzled into black markets too.
Well said.
A lot of small arms are being sent by US police departments and ATF. There was a story a few days ago talking about buy-back program weapons in Miami and guns the ATF (probably) unlawfully seized being sent to Ukraine.
So the reason they have a random assortment of gear is because that was Tom from Tennessee's carbine that was seized because he bought a binary trigger, lol. The money? That stays with the politicians, gets filtered back to the US, etc.
It's all a scam, and WE pay for it!
A lot of that money was being skimmed before it left the USA. Mostly the pentagon charging replacement cost for surplus equipment.
The whole thing is nothing more than a money laundering scheme and backdoor funding operation for the Democrat* party. Kinda like the FTX scam. But hey... Nothin to see here folks! Move along...
Edit: *Democrat AND many establishment Republicans/RINO's.
saw this uncensored on tvp world and god damn man its hard to watch people just drop
This is wild...trench warfare in this era....I suppose this never gets old.
History always repeats itself we need to pray that this ends soon
It’s almost like that tunnel shootout in Sicario.
Sounds like two, 2-round bursts for the last engagement.
It's an m4. You can hear the freaking buffer spring.
It's open fields out there, there's not much you can do about artillery except have a hole to jump into.
oh and the sso in this trench video u just showed were from the 72 naval sso infantry
(equivelant to UA seals) i would assume
The screen is blurred out? We don’t see anything; what ?
Did you know that Ukraine opposed the Iraq invasion and said that it was wrong and we shouldn't be there. But then when we asked everyone for assistance they sent troops anyways to back us up?
Ukraine sent more troops to back us up than almost every other nation out there.
Well I guess that makes the blank check to them alright then. Derrrrp
Obviously they were stupid to help us ╮(╯▽╰)╭
So Ukraine is fine with invading somebody else's territory, but don't like it when it happens to themselves?
this is the biggest money launder transfer in history .... WEF ,Nato , blackrock , military industrail complex etc .. all getting paid from our tax dollars , videos of ukraine soldeirs on the ground asking were is all the money going they are not seeing any new equipment or supplies .....
this is also to drain our military of equipment and supplies, just like us leaving behind billions in equipment afghanastan . while many us generals , and pentagon already talking about a war with china in 2025 ...
Excellent react. Trench capability #1: Balls.
Great breakdown, I watch warthog tv for a lot of footage but the narrative isn’t the same
Great, they can figure out their own problems on the battlefield. Now it's time to keep our tax dollars at home.
Amen
TF my taxes doing over there.
I would like to see this uncensored with the commentary.
Good reacts
Makes me feel better about my setups on my Airpews
This is almost a small incite of what happened 100+ years ago in france.
This is why the trench gun or trench sweeper shouldnt have been put on the list of banned weapons.
Bro I can show you a shit load of footage Ukraines getting smoked in the trenches.
Mike we need to close the borders while helping them. Absolutely nothing gets done in America!
I've always said it's like shooting down a pull stick.
That guy at the beginning got sparked up 😖
Teach me!
He picked the CAR 15 over the Stoner is crazy.
TH-cam has gone to the gutter, when you have to blur out a video of reality to pass through their filter. I watched “sniper shoots terrorist with 50BMG videos” as a kid on this platform. 😂
Suppressed AR in a trench...nice.
Maybe time to break out the old TrenchBroom...updated of course and ammo permitting.
One of the most surreal videos to hit Funker530 in recent history.
