Agree or Disagree: Retaining your mag is dumb…sometimes?
It is all situationally dependent. You should keep your magazines if able. You may not be able to get more. You also may not be able to retrieve the magazine you threw away if you’re on the advance or retreat. Obviously fighting within the building or trench at close range is different. Retaining the magazine should be the goal, but it shouldn’t hinder rapid reloads when needed.
22yrs, Capt ret USAF 27th Special Ops Wing, …… drop the mag if you or your brothers depend on it! Duh!
Hey Clint, I think I can sum this up pretty easily for you. There are two kinds of reloads: Wick flick and Val Kilmer’s “Heat” reload (or at least it looks like Chris saves the mag in “the scene”).
Also, just wanted to say even though I’m not a Toyota fan (they’re not made for people with legs), the blue on your 4 Runner is gorgeous. Even dirty, *chef’s kiss*.
What suppressor cover you runnin' on that mk18? Ive got the liberty's defense which looks very similar but i know it's not that. The flow 556k with the mk18 is 🤌
Not sure why this is even a question. If you have to decide on something like this, you have WAY MORE problems to deal with than losing a $15 – $50 magazine. People and their priorities; geez.
Also, yes always be buying more magazines. Especially if you currently live in Oregon as so called "large capacity magazines" will be illegal to purchase, transfer etc. here in Oregon starting sometime in March of 2026.
Both
Cool FN FAL vid, next FN SCAR H vid?
Great video, explaining the situation when to and when not to throw away your magazine. Thanks Clint awesome.🙏🏻❤️🇺🇸
Makes sense. Awesome AR
Well said
Thought this was common sense common knowledge 😂
what is the barrel length on your FAL?
Sounds good 👍 to 🇺🇸 me.
Really that is something you don't hear about that much. However I thought that is where a good dump pouch comes in at. Great info and content.
Saw your last video and instantly wanted a DSA 58
Did the research and practically built one virtually and i am very close to pulling the trigger on it
I then get off work and sit down to this video… oh man
In my opinion in a gunfight always drop the mag. If you win the gunfight you can pick up your mag. If you lose the gunfight your retained magazines are worthless
Common sense would help in this situation. Unfortunately, common sense isn't really that common anymore. That's almost as scary as only having the short stack left.
There's a thousand different things that can happen a thousand different ways. If dropping a magazine on the ground will break or make it jam, take it out of your inventory and invest in better equipment.
Good times 😊
I agree 💯. It depends on your situation if you ditch your mag or retain it. Having been shot at, I'll be damn if I'm going to take those few precious seconds to grab my mag, whether it's my sidearm or primary weapon.
I still expect the old CF intro music when I see you in a new video. Glad you are still making content.
Wahhh Clint's not using an MK18? Clutch the pearls, buy a lotto ticket 😂😂😂
Is it too late to go back to Classic?
Agreed
Homeboy has obviously never been shot at.
I dont want to die to save a mag. I have spares.
