I have a personal meltdown almost everyday.
Good to hear
At work, right? Me too. I feel your pain.
Be careful what you say. They do have a thing called red flags laws now.
It's hard not to when you are surrounded by incompetence at work.
@Edward Snowden Right!? No one likes dry meat! 🤣
For sale slightly used upper. Use one day at range and then cleaned.
oh my what a sale XD
How much?
"Gently used"*
I’m looking for an AK-47.
Yea how much?
That ROF instantly accelerated!!! The difference between the first and second mag is noticeable
1st and 2nd maybe a little I thought.. the 3rd though...
I wanted to like dans comment but it's at 69
Fastest it got was like 1100 RPM from what I can hear. That’s treading on MG42 territory.
Could've had Geissele Super 42 in the lower i can't remember what or if he said. But it would make sense. I run GS42 with H2's and love em
Well worth the money for the average Joe who wants a AR.
"Poverty pony" hell, that's he mighty "Bargain Bronco"!
That was a good call on that cook-off, well done.
Glad to see that these budget ARs aren't junk.
Cant call myself an expert but in my experience most well built lower end AR builds run just fine. I have a good AR and a couple cheap ones and all run great. I would never run my guns like Eric but its nice to see that I could if I wanted too. AR's are a great rifle. Wish I could afford more.
I don’t know how you can call that particular upper “budget” or “lesser quality” or “lower quality” from the specs Eric read off or its melt down performance. I would be interested to see how this upper shot on paper before the meltdown.
From what I've seen from Anderson, they just build so much that they can pass the savings on to you. I feel like they're more interested in putting solid rifles in peoples hands than squeezing every penny possible from sales. I've personally had good experiences with their products. Just my 2 cents
"Gas tube is getting warm guys"
Glowing gas tube: "am I a joke to you?!"
@ yes it is stfu
8==========D~~~~
Gas tube: Guess I'll die.
I read your comment then he said that
Literally was drooping down the barrel surprised it held up that long
I've run Anderson for years... Firing tens of thousands of rounds through multiple different builds. Not once have I had a failure I can attribute to Anderson
Same
Me neither, I have a .300 blk out pistol build on an Anderson upper and lower with a ballistic advantage barrel, and a 16" carbine Anderson upper and lower never had a problem out of either one.
Billy Madison Me too but ours aren’t automatic either
@@bando5.765 a wire hanger can fix that lol..
@J Hof by running Anderson I can afford thousands more rounds. It's pretty simple logic
Just goes to show that even the"low end" ARs are pretty tough!
Exactly!! “Entry level” AR’s for the win 😄
Feel a little better about my PSA upper and Anderson lower
And none of us will be in a fight like that.. Sooo yea!
Until you actually run them through actually training courses then they fail without a doubt where even my aero precision keeps going.
@@HatsuneM1ku01 you ain’t shit
"Way to go, Magpul. Thanks a lot..." -- Anderson, probably
@Anzu Wyliei He is referring to the Magpul D60 Drum mag which is probably the cause behind the failure which ultimately killed the gun.
It had just dropped on the ground. It probably got dirt in it & he didn't tap seat the rounds in the mag either. I truly believe it would've went another 5 mags (maybe more) had he just used the 45rd pmag w/the aluminum +5 extention instead of trying for an extra 8-10rd outta that drum that had just hit the dirt
@@RichardCranium321 if you think it was the tiny bit of dirt in the drum mag 🤣
@@carsonkouts i know that the slightest debris in those can cause feeding problems but im simply stating that the drop on the ground didn't help with seating the rounds or dirt in an already finicky mag. You are aware they've used that mag in several other meltdown videos & didn't have that problem, right?
@@RichardCranium321 Ya, but the problem wasn't a failure to feed or extract, it was a cook off. So most likely regardless of the magazine the round was going to pop. Dirt or not
You have lost weight Eric... Looking good brother.
Hes giving his rolls to Chad
Brian X
And his deserts
Yeoman Eric owns deserts? Damn, impressive

Yeoman it’s alright I’m just taking the piss, brother
I just got my first AR-15 a few days ago, im learning as much as i can from you, as its the very first AR-15 ive EVER owned. You have so many videos on AR-15's , and im just glad to have you as my teacher. "Professor iraqveteran8888 Eric". You are a true MASTER!
Bought my first Anderson today. After watching this video I’m glad I’m did.
I absolutely love my Anderson M4!!! Built it piece by piece over 3 years. Yeah I know it took a long time but when you’re poor what can you do? It ended up being about $650-$700 when finished. Anyway after I got the gun broke In I’ve never had a single malfunction or problem. It’s not the R85 treated model. It’s my first rifle and I couldn’t be more happier with her. She goes and goes with surprisingly little oil and cleaning. Plus Anderson’s factory is only about 25 minutes from my house and I’m a firm believer in supporting local businesses.
That's awesome man! I'm glad it worked out and you got a gun you're happy with! 😀👍
Yee yee!!! KY represent!
If you're building on a tight budget I recommend you by Wolf ammo around $85 for 500
Vincent Torres also the Norma tactical Eric was using I have found to be the most accurate out of several ARs I have also pmc x-tac I believe is really accurate both out to 600 yards and surprisingly cheap from target sports usa.
@@vincenttorres565 Isn't steel case bad for ARs? When I bought my M&P Sport 2 they told me not to put steel case in it... 😕
even being totally blind, I love these videos. just such a wonderful sound. lol
MegaTgarrett legally blind here.
I bet your dog hates it though. My mom's dog would probably run out of the room. Smile for jaws
I had to go back and listen with my eyes closed... It's like a totally different video.. makes me want to shoot my Anderson.

...and just like that I feel a helluva lot better about my new Anderson. Thanks for posting this up.
Never had any problems with Anderson parts they have always worked very well for me
Damn that is impressive. I kept thinking it was gonna fail and it just kept going.
Cop: So what are you doing shooting full auto out here?
Eric: I'm just tilling the soil over there.
Cop: Can I help till the soil?
Eric: no but you can help fertilize it

I would like to see you guys build one specifically for round count
Jason Brohipower Maybe have a face off type of build. Have Eric and Chad each build one, and see which build lasts the longest.
That would be really cool
@Greg Pip I would like to see that as well actually.
So for a normal situation at the range or even a home defense situation, this upper is great
great....hell id even say above and beyond...
Definitely will do the job if needed.
Crap
Or for just about anyone that wants an AR. I just did a budget build video with a PSA lower and Bear Creak upper- under $500 and again, it would suffice for any “normal” AR shooter.
Anderson is awful, only lower I've ever used that the trigger pins walked out during a normal slow shooting. No mag dumps.
I have used Anderson uppers and lowers for several years at classes I have taken or taught. So far no issues, each class fires around 1500rds/ 3 day class. I have also used PSA uppers and lowers, most of them have had pin walking issues. For what they are Entry Level AR's they perform very well, and will be serviceable for most shooter for many years.
I love how you breakdown everything after the test is done. Thanks for the great test!
Outstanding work Anderson Arms: Thank you guys.
For anyone wondering: 9 standard capacity mags, 2 terran (46 rd) mags, 9 standard capacity mags, and then 7 rounds out of the drum. It all = 639 rounds.
Every time I see one of your videos (once every 2 or 3 months) the production quality is better and better. Keep making quality stuff.
they are watching
At 5:54 we get to see the “MagFairy” in its natural habitat! Simply astonishing!
MagFairy got his head just a little too far downrange
Ive got a few andersons and love them. Zero issues.
I think it did fairly well. I don't think the manufacturer expects for you to shoot that many rounds in one sitting.
Anderson rf85 upper, I like mine just fine! Zero issues!
I have an Anderson , 10 rounds through mine , no issues !
I have a Anderson and love it...never a problem
@6:16 like a dad yelling at his kids lol I love Eric when he is seeing a "result" : )

That list predates Anderson. I heard rumors that Superior Arms merged to become Anderson. Not sure if that is true or not.
Aero used to also make lowers for Spikes but I don't know if that's the case anymore, which like you said the lost is from 2012 so some things have changed a little since then
I've got an SA&A lower, but I already knew it was Aero Precision when I bought it. Great fit and finish, although I've only put less than 500 rounds through it. Mega Arms is ZEV Technologies now, just FYI.
I would like to see this test with a Bear Creek $200 upper
Harold windham same
this.
How about a $220 450 bushmaster from bear creek? I love my $220 upper. Looks good, functions with no issue through around 500 rounds so far.
Agreed
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!! TEST BEAR CREEK ARSENAL!!
This almost compares to my first time firing the 50 cal when I was in the Army. I was supposed to my NCO's AG. But he was getting out and was bored of shooting things like that. Me on the other hand I had a chubby just hearing the 50 fire off from the other points on the firing line. So instead my NCO tells me to take his 100 rounds and I can shoot them with my 100 rounds. My E6 is behind us and gets the idea I should link the two belts together. So I do this, now I have 200 rounds. I take my turn and load the MG and wait for the tower to tell us the ok to start shooting at our targets. Now I know I got 200 rounds I need to burn through so I knew I needed to hold the butter flys down a little longer lol. Instead it turned into me being like Rambo shooting his M60 into a police station. Just holding down the triggers and letting her rip. My NCO's just cheering and saying shoot this target shoot that target lol. The entire time the tower is just mono tone saying burst fire burst fire. I ripped through that 200 rounds damn quick and the barrel was red and pissing heat. It was the only time I got to do that but I will never forget the shit eatin grin I had when it was done.
I had a chuckle imagining you just letting it rip, and a monotone voice saying "Burst fire" "Burst fire"
Lol. Great shit bro.
I’ve saw a .50 after around 500 rounds of continuous firing. The barrel, no shit, rose up like 2-3” and then started to fall to the ground, it almost ended up about 45 degrees down lol. That ma deuce was spitting the shit out of her rifling and was cherry red. The receiver was still good to go. A little CLP, and a barrel change and she was back in action.
Thank you for your service. That sounds metal as fukk Sir.
... what he said! Thank you for you for your service sir!!!
One the coolest stories I've heard in a long time 🤟🤟🤙🤙
6:10 now that is good firearms safety. Recognizing the problem and situation, and properly warning others while keeping the muzzle away and not dropping it.
In reality even in the military full auto M4's and M16's rarely get ran this hard so our semi-auto's would never get ran this hard or get this hot even if we pushed them and tried to get them this hot. It's nice to see how good they will do in a torture test just in case they fail earlier than expected, after seeing this I would not expect an Anderson to fail on me in any foreseeable situation.
Absolutely. I'd say that for a "lower end" manufacturer , Anderson has nothing to be ashamed of based on this torture test. A cook off can happen in any weapon with super heated chamber- nothing shameful in that.
I've built many poverty ponys and love them and still have all them . Never any issues except not having enough ammo to shoot them day in day out
Anderson might have an entry level price, but they perform like an expensive brand.
I discovered your channel recently. I really enjoy your videos and your objective approach. Thank you for your service Sir!
I just got a 16” Anderson AR in a trade. Wasn’t planning on keeping it, but this just changed my mind. Thank you for doing these videos. Your Sport 2 meltdown video is what convinced me to pick one up
I would like to see this was a sub $200 BCA complete upper
That is a great idea
I have a BCA upper and it is pretty nice although the most I've fired out of it in one go is 60 rounds, so obviously no test but it'd be nice to see
@@collinhenderson8646 all the BCA uppers I have come across look prettu solid. I would put them toe to toe with PSA and other entry level models
@@collinhenderson8646 I have a 458 Socom BCA upper and I like it. I had a chance to run it full auto but only had 25 rounds.
@@curtishoward8692 i just bought a 10.5" 300 blackout upper from BCA. havent run any rounds through it yet but it looks solid
I prefer the term "affordable"...
"For the poors"
I like "just enough to be milspec"
@@unclephill4764 for the smart folks that realizes this does the exact same things as a +1500 ar.
Phillip Gratton “for the people who would rather spend the other 1,000 you save after buying it on other guns”
You and me both. I just change the barrel and bcg keep the original for spare parts
Thanks a lot, for us in France we have not a feedback like this on Anderson stufff, thanks a lot guys !!!
Great video as always!! I've put 500 rounds through my anderson and I havent cleaned it and still functions great!
Oh yeah, meltdown time again! Sending love from the UK to you noise making heros! 😊
meltdown*
@Grammar Nazi
maltdown*
Airframe and Powerplant student here, MPI is actually a pretty common and reliable method of nondestructive testing for finding surface and subsurface cracks in ferrous metals😊
Did significantly better than I expected!! Was considering building one for S&G’s but held off… seeing this has renewed interest in the build; thanx!
The platform was made to a mass produced basic weapon. I love the guy who spends thousands on it then can't hit the target while I'm out here with a $500 tack driver. Names mean shit in the real world.
Well Quality Control is a big factor 😅so yeah it means a lot actually reputation wise
When the video is only 12mins, you know it's not gonna last long :p Love these meltdowns \m/
Good times 🇺🇸
Damn dude. I'll dump 10rds and then let my gun cool off because I want it to last forever lol. Your killing it.
Anderson makes some really good stuff. I've used Anderson products for years and I have every intention of continuing to do so.
Please try a Sig M400 tread.. curious to see how much the stainless barrel and micro pinned gas block hold up. I didn't realize how much I missed the meltdown videos. Thank you
I 100% agree
I hear they get hot fast
@@AnonEMus-cp2mn Yeah, with the out of the box hand guard, they get hot really quick. however, if swapped with either one of the Tread upgraded, skeletonized hand guards- it greatly reduces heat buildup.
5:38 “cmon little girl let’s go!” 💀
My Anderson is my go=to weapon. It shoots and feels great.
3 years old, and I still love this video. Miss Barry too.
Observe as a man runs through $500 of ammo
I wouldve been more impressed if it was dated 2021. ROFL!
Almost as much as a new Anderson ar lol
I’m sure you reviewed the footage and saw how a spent case got caught and stovepiped. So maybe extraction got slowed down real bad at the end. Who knows???? But you should put it back together, and let er rip tater chip
I’m guessing you watch cletus McFarland
With my Anderson upper that I bought, the extractor spring was cut one loop too short. After I replaced that spring, 💯. That RF85 just on the BCG has ran flawless with no sign of stopping.
Hell yeah brother! Let then bald eagles fly!!!
Yes sir, put it back together and *SEND IT!*
The failed stove pipe ejection caused the other round not to chamber all the way, and then the heat caused it to detonate while not all the way chambered(ie cook off while out of battery).
Edit: the stove pipe could've been caused by many factors, they just happen sometimes. I'm guessing it was from the high cyclic rate of the bcg, maybe a mix of bad ejector spring tension from the heat.
My SIG M400 came with a Anderson complete upper. 12 years ago no problems at all.
just found out about your channel two days ago and im really liking these gun meltdown videos. keep up the good work and these typeof videos :)
Love this. Anderson chugged along fairly well.
I wanna see a
Knights Armament
meltdown
Wow what a good run, I love my Anderson.
King of gun channels. Melt downs are a true classic.
Amazing how cool the lower receiver stays.
I feel like these meltdown tests could easily end up in a squib load and following explosion of the barrel. It's a good thing the personal protection has been taken care of 👌
This is what makes my original go to channel, GREAT!
Very Nice and fully review about Anderson AR-15, Really do appreciate it your time and experience to share it with us.
The issue with Anderson is its wildly inconsistent QC.
I’d love to see you test a Sons Of Liberty Gun Works
Me also it would be interesting.
Stefano Dawg classic poor.
@Stefano Dawg and ive had nothing but problems with customer guns, everything can fail
@Stefano Dawg That has been my experience as well. Stopped buying other brand receivers years ago.
They used to have problems with qc due to demand after the sandy hook shooting. So bad that even the lettering on the lowers was inconsistent. Fortunately not any more. Haven't had a single problem with mine
Ha, I run Anderson on two of my ARs, only rifles I've NEVER had an issue with.
I’m so happy with my Anderson!
You are CRAZY! I was scared as sh** watching! I LOVED IT!!!!!
Used a mix of Anderson and PSA parts in my AR-15 budget build. Very happy with Anderson quality.
I love these videos!
Eric, can we please get a new gas tube in the PSA upper and a new meltdown?
PSA next, one with a better handguard this time, that allows the heat to dissipate better.
Anderson is right here in my home state of Kentucky and people love working there.
It would have been interesting if this was the RF-85 treated rifle they say is game-changing
It really isnt
Every time I hear the phrase, “it’s a gamer charger”, I think of the TV show, 07 in Louisiana; busted for porking his daughter.
There really aren’t going to be too many major technological advances to the AR family of weapons.
Regards,
Marky
I've personally never found any quality issues with Anderson's lower receivers, and they are every bit as good as other brands I have.
I like that youve FINALLY pretty much got the ergonomic layout for the table and ammo working.
Ammo to hand on the side you use to reload without having to reach forward.
Used to bug me lol.
hey man first id like to say is thank you for your service the other is holy shit brother your the man thats crazy stuff and some dam good stuff thanks man hell yes
PLEASE DO PKM!! I was PKM fighter in military and fell in love with that gun 😁 I would love to see that
I wanna see a 5 shot group before and after it starts glowing like that lol
Dude your meltdowns.... anytime!!! And they are the best 👍
Take that Anderson!!!! Awesome!!!!! Love it!!!! Great video brother!!!!
5:50 I think I saw the magazin fairy
I'm actually impressed!
Given the circumstances and conditions. I feel very confident that my Anderson is good to go. I have had this gun for about 3 years and while it is not full auto, it serves the purpose and I can make it go as fast as my finger will allow. Not to mention that it is pretty accurate. 5 rounds in the same hole at 100yds.
totally worth the money and would buy again.
During the beginning of the shooting I thought about there being a cook-off in the chamber or the bolt getting stuck due to excessive heat. There were fireballs coming out from the ejection port right off the hop which I've never noticed before on previous meltdowns.
Just glad to see that you didn't get injuries when that thing went off Eric.
I would love to see a melonited gas tube like I use vs plain stainless to see if it really matters!!!
I bet the melonited gas tube would win.
Stainless ftw!
No difference in strength only difference in corrosion resistance.
@Kevin Schmidt That's how i roll too.
sugarland77478 I dunno about that melonited makes it much harder and heat resistant I think it will make a pretty good difference.
I'd like to see a 300 blackout or even a 6.8 spc meltdown. I believe that would yield interesting results to the barrel and gas system vs standard 5.56. As always, thanks for your hard work Eric and Chad!
These blow my mind every time
Love these videos thx guys keep them coming
Should of put an optic on it to help "dissipate the heat"

Had to come back to watch this again because I bought a upper and lower receiver from anderson for my new build. Good to know the receivers are GTG
I've been to andersons factory in Kentucky. Great people first and a excellent product
DAMN! I've never seen this before...NUTS!
It's been too long since you've done a meltdown. I'm glad to see it😊
