  1. Very good review! CMMG makes a really good product. I love my 10mm Banshee. I do agree with your comments about the price and what’s items you would expect with the purchase. My Banshee now has a new 2stage trigger, a Vortex red dot and backup iron sights. It’s now one of my favorite firearms!
    Thanks for the video!

  2. I love the 20 round "tanker" x39 mags! Keep a PSA AK pistol in a backpack; the 20 round mag lets me have one mag vs. no mag in and still come easily out.

  3. The audacity to ship this without backup sights.
    The mutant makes a good impression for the cartridge. Would be interesting to see how the longer barrel variants do at a few hundred yards. What sight has Frank installed?

  4. I didn't expect to see all those shots on top of each other from 50 yards. For a 10 inch barrel, with el cheapo steel ammunition that was fairly good.

  5. Welcome back — with a suntan — from the Low Country.

    I have always appreciated CMMG’s quality and I like the design’s basic concept — AR-10, rather than AR-15, durability and structural strength for 7.62x39mm cartridges. In addition, the accuracy and functionality are clearly excellent.

    However, I really dislike the inability to have an open bolt and, therefore, a visibly empty chamber. Years ago, I was a RSO at the Quantico Shooting Club (and, of course, I have shot in many other venues). I can’t remember a single range where having a observably empty chamber wasn’t mandatory, when not actually firing (for obvious safety reasons). I can picture trying to explain to the RSO, “Well, I can’t lock the both open, so please violate a major safety protocol and just trust me.”

  6. Very good review. The lack of sights is not a real concern and the magazines are so available I can overlook it. But the trigger IS an issue. And in my mind, a serious one. In areas with a larger population, it is possible to test shoot a firearm before purchasing. Not the case for me and many other people. Thank you being candid as always.
