@@kazikoFPV Most likely, since they were both well known and respected engineers. They both built beautiful platforms that, quite honestly, changed gun platforms throughout the world.
@@camostrike4395 the important thing to remember is that the AK-47 and AR-15 were built for two radically different countries with radically different military doctrines and industrial bases. The US had the industrial capacity, experience, and knowledge to mass produce a rifle that required large milled components. At the time Mikhail developed the AK, the USSR didn't (at least not at the scale to equip an army). Further, the AR isn't an "unreliable" gun, just less reliable than the AK, and the AK isn't inaccurate, just less accurate than an AR (again, we're talking about your average issue weapon) for a variety of engineering reasons, most having to do with less reciprocating mass because of the AR's (semi-) direct impingement system. The AR also gets a small boost because the "firing components" of the weapon are essentially three parts (upper, lower, barrel) whereas the AK uses a larger number of parts that are all riveted together. Again, this doesn't mean the AR is better than the AK, just that Stoner and Kalashnikov had very different design priorities. Also, in before anyone starts bringing up Vietnam reliability issues, that was the army's stupidity. They switched propellant type from the recommended ball to stick powder, I assume because of cost. The problem is that ball powder has spherical powder grains that result in a much more complete burn, whereas stick powder leaves much more carbon in the combustion gas. This, combined with the military not wanting to spend the money to chrome the internals (as Stoner insisted), and to then tell the soldiers that cleaning was unnecessary, resulted in a ton of failures, as anyone who's ever handled a rifle could have foreseen. When using the designed for propellant, and designed for maintenance, the AR platform is nicely reliable (although not as absolutely indestructible as the AK, but then again, different design priorities). A good example of this is a dust test that InRangeTV did with AK style and AR style rifles. Both weapons malfunctioned initially, were cleared within a couple seconds, and then went on to function absolutely perfectly.
I like to imagine brandon has a secret life where he ADORES the Ar15. Like he has a secret room with Eugene Stoner Murals and all sorts of hard to find Ar Variants from history.

Pretty sure pre-Covid Brandon touched an AR-15 in one of his videos. However, he had a definite distaste and was genuinely horrified to lay hands on it. This new post-Covid Brandon just made a few jokes about AR guys and that's it.
Brandon: *Builds an AR, and seems proud of himself* Mikhail: "SON! YOU HAVE SINNED!" Me: "...I can feel Kalashnikov rolling in his grave right now. Help."
I've worked on literally 10s of thousands of M-16s and M-4s, and I lost a spring on one of my post service AR builds. It is easy as fuck to send some of them flying into the darkest corners of whatever chamber you are working in.
Yup an not having another laying around so had to wait for the mail for one tiny stupid part.... Now I have multiple of everything, I can Frankenstein an AR together out of spare parts 🙃
I don't own a AK yet, but the shear simplicity of the SKSs my son and I purchased to clean up and go shooting together with plus Brandons channel make me wish I purchased a AK two years ago
“You don’t need tools to build an AR” “Allen key after Allen key after Allen key” and bets roll pin in with a hammer you “could of been a happy little roll pin”
I want to remove mine from my dpms. The concept is so stupid. Why cram something into the chamber that doesn't want to go in? Been thinking about an ak or sks. I can get ammo for it at a reasonable price.
This is one of my favorite of your videos, for just how much of it is unscripted. The frustration, the lip and nose curling moments of pure irritation. Simply splendid.
"Wrong-handed friendly" I bet you would love assembling an L85A2 or L85A3. Even though it works just fine (unlike the A1), it is designed to injure anyone that tries to use it left handed.
@@clintjanes3784 a gun that was assembled, successfully...by the millions, I might add...by uneducated factory workers who probably couldn't read above a 6th grade level is NOT a craftsman-level build. Nor is an AR. For a craftsman-level build, you're talking Walther P38, MG34, etc. It doesn't take a craftsman to drive rivets. I've done it. I work in the aircraft industry, and sheet metal mechanics don't describe themselves as craftsman. They're tradesmen, and the AK is a tradesman's rifle.
@@ERAUsnow ..... your average person who has basic knowledge of guns but has never built a gun is going to have a much easier time assembling an ar 100% of the time. He's comparing building one vs the other not declaring the construction of an ak as a craftsman level accomplishment.
I had a teacher with the same problem. So he tied his hand down until he became ambidextrous enough to be functional in both hands... although he still preferred the wrong hand.
I'm left handed and I remember when I was like 5 and shot for the first time my father asked me to hold the rifle and I held it like a left hander and he just said "no that's the wrong shoulder" and since then I shoot like a normal person.
if you can handle the gun correctly right hand, use a riser for the optic, that's what I did and I can shoot right-handed with my left eye. (cross dominance, and the right eye doesn't work)
@@Razgriz85 usually it's an eye dominance issue. I fire rifles lefty but sidearms right handed but aligned to my left eye. Makes for "tacticool" transitioning but is far easier as the weapons don't obstruct each other.
USCCA, is a very great idea to have. I signed up one night @1030pm and in @ 30 minutes I was signed up. Not to mention they gave me my military discount of 10% off. I paid for the year in advance and saved another 10%. They gave me a rescue pack, worth at least $50.00 and a hand gun lock box, worth at least $75. So it's a great deal for a great idea for great coverage in a very cynical world. And of course the build without instructions is great. I am a Marine from the early 80's and I still can take apart and assemble my AR in the dark with my eyes closed. But you are correct to say there is an order to build it. Also a complete build is doable but uet difficult to do without instructions for the first time for sure. Great show, keep it up. Thanks
Oh Jesus don't remind me of trying to fix the modified Type 2 gearbox (at least I think it was a type 2) inside my Magpul Masada PTS (the original airsoft version of the Bushmaster ACR). I got one of the genuine Magpul serialized ones, and upgraded it with an improved spring, motor, LiPo battery, and forgot to check the gearbox internals. Welp, one completely stripped gear later and I got a lesson in why I should have gotten a gas bow back instead of an AEG. Imagine my surprise when I started getting into real firearms and realized how mechanically simple firearms are. If you think about it, there are really only a handful of moving parts: Mag catch, trigger, sear, hammer, bolt carrier, and bolt. Everything else is just window dressing or not necessary for the gun to run.
@@Pyreleaf i work in a wood shop and this one guy cut the tip of his thumb off just a few weeks ago. Hes cut fingers off before. Be careful around saws kids
@@Pyreleaf i saw a guy put a drill through his finger during a powerplant build, i played with power tools since i was a kid so unlike that guy i actually have years of experience and a childlike fear and respect of things that can hurt me if i mess up, he however had none of this, at least he kept his finger though and only mostly lost skin
See, I just put an upper together for the first time yesterday...and watching Brandon struggle with the gas block roll pin as much as I did is quite nice.
@@CheeseDanish85 It's weird because I love most Star Wars content (except the Disney shit) and almost any kind of AR-15 (unless they're poorly made or full of unnecessary holes). And conversely, like Star Trek (only Star Trek I enjoyed were the original, Next Generations, and Deep Space Nine), I only like a handful of models (AK-47, AK-74, AKM, AEK 971, the Dragunov, the RPK, and the RPD) mostly consisting of classics.
You realize that Brandon is being facetious, right? There's a lot more to assembling an AR-15 than just hammering in some roll pins and putting in a couple of screws.
History teachers teaching about the great boog of 2020: it all started when papa kalash got the coof and was replaced with a democratic cyborg and started building ar’s
@@mikefelty2625 but they are all fully semi-fully-automatic anyway, right? And clearly they just sent it to him through the mail with no background check! Just like the Dems told us!
This reminds me of the first day I learned how to detail disassemble of the .50 Cal HMG... Our instructor told us to dissasemble at the basic level that we already knew. Then showed us how to take apart everything else, Which we did. Then gave us a bucket and put everything in, which we did... Then we left the classroom for 5 mins, came back, and she said, "put it back together and preform the function test and 9 point checks" with broken parts.. Long story short, swearing is a part of learning kids.

This is one of my favorite of your videos, for just how much of it is unscripted. The frustration, the lip and nose curling moments of pure irritation. Simply splendid.
For Brandon this whole thing is a cursed gun
Question; Why does anyone need full auto?
Answer; To prevent one's ammo stocks from getting out of hand.
Full auto 10/22 unironically probably the best self defense weaponry for the elderly
"they want to be wrong handed friendly"
I feel attacked
You arnt the only one, I learned to shoot left handed cause Im cross eye dominant and now holding a rifle right handed feels... weird
@@Sovek86 I do pretty much everything left sided. except batting for some reason. left handed batting feels weird
It was a jab at that other gun related Jesus.
SoulXD you’ve been put down so long with right handed scissors, you deserve to have some comfort in the gun world
should have just titled it "Dismantling an AR in reverse"
I’m pretty sure I heard that the Coronavirus leaves some traces of brain damage. Brandon, are you sure you’re ok?
What's a pirate's favorite gun? AR AR AR
Corona: *does put Brandon in the forever box*
Brandon: fine, I’ll do it myself *builds ar*
This just proves he died from the rona and has been replaced with a robot, AK Guy would never build an AR.
He’s already shot an AR multiple times. Before getting the Rona
@@jaypeterman9721 And thats why he got the rona
he doesn't build ak's for people who paid deposits either.
And when he showed off thw receiver, we know who replaced him
cmon now, not a robot, a deepfake obviously
Funny how the office gets darker and darker as the day goes along.. looks like he stayed late in the office haha
Brandon after getting an AR "Oh yeah, it's all coming together."
Box: _self-dies_
Brandon: ‘Cool.’
"Wrong-handed friendly"
I bet you would love assembling an L85A2 or L85A3. Even though it works just fine (unlike the A1), it is designed to injure anyone that tries to use it left handed.
Woo yeah, British guns against left handers
Ian "Ahh the tyranny of the right handed" Mccollum
@@WingMaster562 At least there was a left-handed prototype for Ian.
Seeing as I am left eye dominant this tells me to stay very far from those firearms.
All I wanna see now is a cursed sa80a2 with an AK front hand guard
What I've learned is that an AK is more like what a craftsman would build, and an AR is more like IKEA furniture
I like both concepts...
I like good people having the capacity to stop/kill in the most efficient manner possible.
You actually said "craftsman" and "AK" in the same sentence...
Um...
@@ERAUsnow okay, you build one.
@@clintjanes3784 a gun that was assembled, successfully...by the millions, I might add...by uneducated factory workers who probably couldn't read above a 6th grade level is NOT a craftsman-level build.
Nor is an AR. For a craftsman-level build, you're talking Walther P38, MG34, etc.
It doesn't take a craftsman to drive rivets. I've done it. I work in the aircraft industry, and sheet metal mechanics don't describe themselves as craftsman. They're tradesmen, and the AK is a tradesman's rifle.
@@ERAUsnow ..... your average person who has basic knowledge of guns but has never built a gun is going to have a much easier time assembling an ar 100% of the time. He's comparing building one vs the other not declaring the construction of an ak as a craftsman level accomplishment.
AR15?! What did you do with the real Brandon Herrera?!
It seems to be, he might just be going a little bit insane
Who knows?
The Kung Flu has infected his brain
He's in the Biden Basement.
The look of disappointment when my father found out I truly was wrong handed and every gun he had hoped to pass on to me wasn't. #akgnotificationsquad
I had a teacher with the same problem. So he tied his hand down until he became ambidextrous enough to be functional in both hands... although he still preferred the wrong hand.
I'm left handed and I remember when I was like 5 and shot for the first time my father asked me to hold the rifle and I held it like a left hander and he just said "no that's the wrong shoulder" and since then I shoot like a normal person.
I'm right handed, and so is my dad, but he shoots wrong handed (no clue why).
if you can handle the gun correctly right hand, use a riser for the optic, that's what I did and I can shoot right-handed with my left eye. (cross dominance, and the right eye doesn't work)
@@Razgriz85 usually it's an eye dominance issue. I fire rifles lefty but sidearms right handed but aligned to my left eye. Makes for "tacticool" transitioning but is far easier as the weapons don't obstruct each other.
Watching this was like watching a 13 year old boy trying to reassemble the VCR before his dad gets home from work.
In my case it was a bathroom sink
@@JohnBeebe are you a plumber now?
USCCA, is a very great idea to have. I signed up one night @1030pm and in @ 30 minutes I was signed up. Not to mention they gave me my military discount of 10% off. I paid for the year in advance and saved another 10%.
They gave me a rescue pack, worth at least $50.00 and a hand gun lock box, worth at least $75.
So it's a great deal for a great idea for great coverage in a very cynical world.
And of course the build without instructions is great. I am a Marine from the early 80's and I still can take apart and assemble my AR in the dark with my eyes closed.
But you are correct to say there is an order to build it. Also a complete build is doable but uet difficult to do without instructions for the first time for sure.
Great show, keep it up. Thanks
This dude literally filmed for so long it became night. He is an actual meme
Yup, Just like me, took that long.
good times
now i definitely believe he has corona hes building a freaking A R ol
Indeed
Your commentary is spot on with tiny springs, roll pins, and God forsaken Allen keys. Anyone who has assembled AR's has felt your pain once or twice!
Ever tried using a clevis pin to help with the forward takedown pin? Makes assembly a breeze. Assembled one on my vacation a month ago
Love how the brand manager was just flexing all his toys
Ohhhhh yeah it’s timeeeeee been waiting for this.
This is like building the Lego Death Star despite being a Star Trek dude
#akgnotificationsquad
"100 cans of the finest white claw" LMAO. I seen it coming and still almost spit my whiskey out!
That moment when you realize that it’s harder to build an airsoft gun than an ar
Or a nerf gun
Srsly
Airsoft guns are more expensive too.
*Eyes glow*
*Doom Music starts*
Oh Jesus don't remind me of trying to fix the modified Type 2 gearbox (at least I think it was a type 2) inside my Magpul Masada PTS (the original airsoft version of the Bushmaster ACR). I got one of the genuine Magpul serialized ones, and upgraded it with an improved spring, motor, LiPo battery, and forgot to check the gearbox internals. Welp, one completely stripped gear later and I got a lesson in why I should have gotten a gas bow back instead of an AEG.
Imagine my surprise when I started getting into real firearms and realized how mechanically simple firearms are. If you think about it, there are really only a handful of moving parts: Mag catch, trigger, sear, hammer, bolt carrier, and bolt. Everything else is just window dressing or not necessary for the gun to run.
Haha my internet cut out at exactly 0:49 when it cut to Brandon and it took me like 20 seconds to realize the buffering symbol wasn't a joke.
“I bet you 100 cans of the finest white claws.” *Brandon has joined the chat*
Speek of the deavl
Me: *pulls out AR*
*Brandon has left the chat*
Saw this in my notifications and thought it was a late April fools joke lol
In this episode of Brandon’s toy review, he assembles the Armalite LEGO set for ages 18+
The best kind of legos. Every kid should be given a set at birth.

“AR guys are scared of power tools” -Brandon Herrera 2020
GeoStreams420 man, I'm an engineer and power tools can be fucking scary. Some of the horror stories I've heard, just...fuck, dude.
@@Pyreleaf haha drill goes brrrr brrrr
Filip Rašić yes, those are words which typically precede a workplace injury.
@@Pyreleaf i work in a wood shop and this one guy cut the tip of his thumb off just a few weeks ago. Hes cut fingers off before. Be careful around saws kids
@@Pyreleaf i saw a guy put a drill through his finger during a powerplant build,
i played with power tools since i was a kid so unlike that guy i actually have years of experience and a childlike fear and respect of things that can hurt me if i mess up, he however had none of this, at least he kept his finger though and only mostly lost skin
"100 cans of the finest White Claw." had me cracking up.
See, I just put an upper together for the first time yesterday...and watching Brandon struggle with the gas block roll pin as much as I did is quite nice.
Brandon: Pissed off he has to build-ASSEMBLE-an AR-15
Me, an AK and AR lover: Should I be offended?
I’m just a Dutch guy that watches these videos and likes all weapons.
I just love the mechanics of all guns. Thinking of becoming a gunsmith
This is like when people get all Star Wars vs. Star Trek. I like both. Pity those who deny themselves quality.
@@CheeseDanish85 It's weird because I love most Star Wars content (except the Disney shit) and almost any kind of AR-15 (unless they're poorly made or full of unnecessary holes). And conversely, like Star Trek (only Star Trek I enjoyed were the original, Next Generations, and Deep Space Nine), I only like a handful of models (AK-47, AK-74, AKM, AEK 971, the Dragunov, the RPK, and the RPD) mostly consisting of classics.
A true Hoplosexual is turned on by any gun.
I know a guy who took longer and was using the instructions.
Yeahhhhh... me too lol..
How could you do something so controversial yet so brave??!!
As someone who’s new to the gun community this is so cool to me that he can without instructions build an AR
You realize that Brandon is being facetious, right? There's a lot more to assembling an AR-15 than just hammering in some roll pins and putting in a couple of screws.
@@norikotakaya14292 I’m sure there’s plenty more to it than what he’s saying it’s still cool to me that he can do it
"Just like a woman that can do 3 shots of tequila without flinching"
Hit me right in the feels bro.
History teachers teaching about the great boog of 2020: it all started when papa kalash got the coof and was replaced with a democratic cyborg and started building ar’s
Oh god NO!
If he's a democratic cyborg, he's a pretty bad one. Making it full-auto would give any pro gun control commie, I mean democrat, an immediate aneurysm.
@@mikefelty2625 but they are all fully semi-fully-automatic anyway, right? And clearly they just sent it to him through the mail with no background check! Just like the Dems told us!
Vidar D don’t forget it shoots 30 round clip-a-zines in half a second. Just think what it could do if it truly was full-auto-semi-auto-semi-matic
“Need some needle nose pliers” *proceeds to caveman jam roll pin into place*
Tbh it took him over 11 minutes of video time so pretty good
You had me in stitches. My hat is off to you for putting it together without instructions.
This reminds me of the first day I learned how to detail disassemble of the .50 Cal HMG... Our instructor told us to dissasemble at the basic level that we already knew. Then showed us how to take apart everything else, Which we did. Then gave us a bucket and put everything in, which we did... Then we left the classroom for 5 mins, came back, and she said, "put it back together and preform the function test and 9 point checks" with broken parts..
Long story short, swearing is a part of learning kids.
Brandon gets an AR
Well that's another for apocalypse bingo
Wait... is Jake holding a replica of Deckard's gun from "Blade Runner" at 1:00?
Kinda looks like the pistol from doom 3 ngl
It looks like that pistol from new Vegas
deffo the blade runner gun, ive seen enough adam savage videos drooling over it to recognise one whe i see one
It is.
