    When Training Like You Fight Goes Sorta Wrong

    This is a Belgian soldier during a training exercise apparently:

    I was in full butthole pucker / anticipation cringe when he was yelling… but at 0:17 he appeared to not have been hurt bad since he got right up.  Adrenaline maybe, but still.  Looks like some heavy jacket rips on his left shoulder.  I’m guessing by the lack of skin or blood he must have had a ballistic vest on. Phew.. train like you fight disaster averted.

    1:25 – Saw the woodland camo at the end and was like 😍😍😍

    Thoughts? Notice how I always ask that? Straight outta the content creators handbook hehe.

    How To Sell Out In The Gun Industry

    Funker Tactical has some content:

    It’s true.  They say the if your blog has “gun reviews” you get 1.6billion times more visitors than if it doesn’t.  Researching ‘why?’ sounds a lot like work, but I’m guessing because normies search google for cringey stuff like “Sig Sauer Tread Review” and “Taurus TX Review” etc.  Lucky I don’t care about views or getting free stuff.  Someday (we have discussed this in the comments in the past) I might flip the script and offer things like “I think your product is dumb, but if you pay me I’ll run a ironic promo for it” in response to emails… and just offer make up a big shitpost on the product (if I actually don’t like it).  You guys will know if/when I do that though, because it will be a train wreck and I’ll try to cut you in on the deal somehow with free product or something.  I think you’d be surprised at the amount of companies that have a sense of humor and be down for that… it wouldn’t be a lot but it would be more than you’d expect.  I bet if I lined up 100 sheephitters at SHOT and showed them my Sig Sauer Tread promo criticisms for instance, a good portion would want to punch me in the face because they strongly identify with the messaging, another portion would be like “I’ve never heard of that until now, but can you please get your neckbeard-having-mountain-dew-ass-breath-cheeto-fingers shoving an iPad in my face away from me?  SECURITY!”, and the remainder would feel it at their core like “HELL YA BRUTHER.  Where do I swipe my card to buy one?”.  Sig wins in every possible outcome.

    Thoughts?  I feel like FuNkEr has been a little slow with the content lately.  I was thinking about that while blogging the other day, and was like I hope that dude is alright.  *shrug* We content creators (I’m lumping myself in that group for max cringe) need time off though too.  I’ll allow it.

    VODA Says Tap Rack Bang Is Cool And All BUT

    The “Inverted Clearing Option” or ICO as he dubs it:

    Man VODA is high speed.  So knowledgeable too.. just when I think the industry isn’t at a standstill he’s TM’ing terms and inventing methods.  Inspirational.  One of the great shooting minds of our time.

    0:01 – Talking about how he had a brief conversation with Shoothouse P (Sonny Puzikas)… actually he just was speaking about malfunctions on a live feed… not to VODA.  BUT WHATEVER GUYS that’s not the point 😂 says VODA.  They he continues on to say “We were discussing…”. Um sorry swEatie?

    2:40 – He’s still inside his house, but decides to transition to demonstrating with live rounds… lets see how this pans out.  I’m not sure why a snap cap wouldn’t have worked *shrug* but here we are.

    5:24 – When the words “and I press the trigger” were coming out of his mouth I cringe-flinched because I was still imagining a live round in play.

    6:17 – He big-ups Shoothouse P again, like they are bros, and how they “knowledge transfer”.  Sure buddy.

    Thoughts?  What’s it going to take for VODA to be taken more seriously in this industry?  Is he going to have to negligently shoot someone to fast track this success or what?

    Tippmann Armory 9mm Gatling Gun That Takes Glock Mags

    Haha this is hilarious:

    Pop your extendo Glock magazine in there and crank it.  Good stuff.  It would look funny with a drum magazine sticking out of there.

    Not avilable for purchase yet on the Tippmann Armory website; coming in March apparently . I almost fell of my chair when I heard the price though… dealer price will be ~$3000, meaning the retail price will be quite a bit more.  Can you really put a price on having all the fudds at your range lose their minds when you start doing mag dumps on this thing?  Just hosing bullets downrange? haha
