Water does super heat and expand with enough power to warp steel. What I would like to see (and am surprised I haven't) is adapting PC cooling tech to firearms. A small pump and reservoir, a battery and a radiator under the furniture. It would be way lighter and more efficient.
Nicely done but I'm not a big fan of playing dress up with firearms. About as wild as I go is a two tone olive drab.
That is bullshit about the water everything he said
This is one of those cases I'm glad that,
"Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should" 😂
Do you need special equipment to fill up the ar 15 water jacket or will any water container and a funnel work?
I would love to have gone to Shot Show but I won’t even be near Vegas until May-ish.
Add about 8 to 12 pounds to the upper with the water jacket, as water weighs 8.34 pounds per gallon, and that looks like it might hold a gallon or a little over a gallon.
So…the AR-15 FRT's just got spicier.
Water cooled belt fed AR with a FRT that’s the American Dream right there.
When you bring an AR15 to WW1
That’s the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen
"Today on Forgotten Weapons"
The 1st Truely Free Floating Barrel! 🤣
1917 AR what ignorant things will they come up with next for big dummies to waste their money on.
So you're adding a gallon of water on the front of the gun while also eliminating any way to attach a bipod?
That is sic
6:00 they literally made mithril armor from TLOTR! Take my money!
7:16 this place is a joke every gun part sells these for more than you could buy new from, they even do this with the used mags😂😂😂. Used Glock gen 3 for 400 no reciver no magazine 😂😂😂 by the time you buy two mags and a lower and go through all the bull shit you could have bought new and spent less money 😂😂
Water cooled upper if it was brass would be cool.
Looks like a bunch of lame shit
Meltdown
Need to add an antifreeze mix to
extend the boiling point. And a picatinny rail to the bottom.
Bought from everygunpart a few times. legit company!
Highly recommend 👌
