  1. People who complain about recoil just need some time at the range with an elephant gun. You wont feel 5.56, 7mm, .308. anymore. At a minimum you wont flinch or complain about the recoil. 😂

  2. The only times I’ve ever had issues with the recoil of an AR is when I don’t properly hold it up against my shoulder. Beyond that, the recoil is nothing-I’ve honestly compared it to a .22LR rifle

  3. Did that msg over insert? Looked bolt locked when you dropped the mag cause the bolt dropped right on top of the drop. Or did he release the bolt? Looked like an over insertion which I didn't think one could do with a gen 3 p mag.

  4. I remember our first day on the range in basic our drill sergeant said name me a body part to put the butt stock against while firing. Of course everyone said on his balls and he did it. Instantly took away my recoil fear as I had never fired a rifle.

  5. Imagine learning how to shoot with a single barrel 12gauge at 7 years old it’s just a good time for everybody and you get the basics down u didn’t develop a trigger flinch from it I had to learn how to control but it helped me understand recoil anticipation when i started shooting more

  6. I'm an Army Veteran (Infantryman), pistol/rifle instructor, I've never heard anyone complain about 5.56 recoil including 18yo female medics, stop inventing things to be upset about.

  7. Its not the recoil that people actually complain about its the blast/concussion and they just assume that is recoil since they don't have the vocabulary to describe it.
    Lets be real some AR's are fucking obnoxious with blast/concussion.

  8. I feel we are being unfair to alot of people who say AR-15 recoil is strong considering it can be chambered in pretty much any caliber, my buddy thought AR-15s kicked until I let him shoot mine, turns out his dad had his chambered in 50 Beowulf. Also alot of people cant tell the differnce between AR-15s and AR-10s
