  2. That's nuts that people would think that. A short barrel doesn't make it inaccurate. You just lose velocity. The slower the bullet the longer gravity, wind and so on has to work on that bullet before it reaches its target. But the silliness of this is that you have pistols that people manage to shoot far distances because they know how to compensate for that lengthened time to the target. I'm sorry I can't remember the gentleman's name but on utube he took a standard 9mm pistol and hit a target at 1000 yards away. I think it was on iraq veteran 8888's channel. That 223 or 556 is moving much faster even out of the short barrel than a 9mm any day.

  5. I didn’t watch this vid and neither should you lol.. I’ll save you 11 minutes, a gun is as accurate as its shooter within reason.. I don’t mean this little ar-pistol at 500 yards but with in reason

  7. This video is fucking garbage. Thanks for testing on a windy day when people want to know its reliability outside of a cyclone??? Also 100-200 yards… people want to see it shot at 10" 16" barrel distances to see how far the velocity of lower to higher grain bullets would do the most penetration but the most travel in a AR pistol build.

    HOW IS THAT SO FUCKING DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND LOL.

  16. But what is the terminal effect out that far?
    I can see them being effective within 100yds but the limiting factor is that round loses so much speed(the essential part of a tiny round) unless you figure out a custom powder load that'll burn quicker & is specific to that rig alone to make most of the 7" instead of 10"-20". Maybe a "gallery powder", whatever that is, iv8888 was using it & it makes the rounds hustle with a MUCH smaller powder charge.

  27. Thanks for the video!
    Yeah starting to get annoyed everytime the AR pistols come up or out its always the same "you went with 7.5"? Don't you care about accuracy?"
    Center mass at 50 yds with irons and man sized at 100yds isn't enough? Is my response, that's almost farther than I can see 😉
