    • paperchasin23 That’s like saying Eddie Van Halen stole his finger-tapping technique from Randy Rhoads (if you’re even old enough to comprehend that reference). People can refine existing ideas or even invent the same idea simultaneously without stealing from each other. Look how many times beer making, a very specific process, has been independently “invented” throughout human history. Only knuckle-draggers who are already predisposed to think is such terms see such events as theft.

    • Or it's old people making decisions for military acquisitions based on nostalgia or lobbying/patronage by friendly manufacturers. Let's be objective here. 1911 has a single stack mag. so we're talking 7 or 8 rounds. Standard double stack mags usually range from 15 to 20 on most modern handguns. Not to mention polymer handguns weigh substantially less. There are plenty of good polymer handguns but i'll use a Glock for the sake of weight comparison: Glock 19 (stock) w/16 rounds of 124gn (9mm) - 30.8 oz. Kimber Custom II w/8 rounds of 230gn (.45 acp) - 44.7 oz. Glock 21 (stock) w/14 rounds of 230gn (.45 acp) - 40.1 oz. And keep in mind that while .45 acp theoretically has more muzzle energy, studies that have surveyed hundreds of actual real-life shooting incidents show that .45 acp produces about the same rate of death and incapacitation as 9mm. So you might as well choose the one that gives you more shots per weight.

    • @@bryanblack526 Right... because war boils down to two people having a one-on-one duel in a cemetery at night, huh? You should read some statistics. One of the primary determinants of victory in firefights in war is volume of fire. If magazine capacity and round count didn't matter, we wouldn't have switched from full sized rifle rounds to intermediate cartridges. And we'd all still be using guns like M1 Garands with 8 shots needed before a fucking reload. More rounds per reload + lighter ammo (or lighter magazines) = greater volume of fire per soldier. Oh and guess what? When NATO was trying to decide on a standardized calibre shortly after WWII, it was the conservative big wigs in the US Military that put their foot down and refused to change, insisting on 7.62 x 51 when Britain wanted to jump straight to an intermediate calibre. The result? They redesigned the Garand for full auto fire and use of a detachable magazine and tried to use it as a standard assault rifle (AKA the M14). We all know that was a fucking terrible idea. Took decades for them to get with the program and agree to 5.56 x 45, after they saw how effective 7.62 x 39 was with the AK. And in your example, why is it Joe blow vs a Veteran? It should be two veterans. The way you structured your example feels like even you subconsciously admit that skill level being equal, higher mag capacity is just straight better.

One thing that was not mentioned here is that this gun fires from a locked breech, and when the barrel moves backward and pivots down, the locking lugs on the top of the barrel move down out of engagement with the corresponding grooves in the slide. Most pistols have this sort of locking mechanism, and it is the principle difference between a "blowback" and a "recoil-operated" gun.

    • @@brandonzidzik yes but the video claims the tilting action only helps the cartridge feed into the barrel. While it does aid feeding, the barrel actually moves backwards with the slide in the locked position for just a few millimeters before dropping down into the frame and allowing the slide to move all the way to the rear. It does this so the gun doesn't explode, you see in a traditional blowback handgun only the weight of the slide and spring are keeping the round in the chamber, when the round is fired the pressure will try to escape through the pass of least resistance. Hopefully if you have enough weight on the slide and spring the pressure should force the round out of the barrel before the gun tries to extract the round or else the bullet case will explode without the support of the barrel, too much weight and the gun won't cycle . The problem with blowback is you need a super heavy slide and recoil spring to make the guns work properly with higher pressure handgun calibers, that makes guns overall more heavy and much harder to chamber a round manually. So instead of using just the mass of the slide to keep the cartridge chambered long enough to allow the round to fully leave the chamber and pressure in the case to drop, the 1911 for example allow the barrel and slide to move together under recoil while still having the cartridge fully locked into chamber, only until a certain amount for distance does the barrel drop down unlocking it from the slide and the round is ejected, by then the bullet has fully left the barrel. This is better than traditional blowback because now the slide and recoil spring can be alot lighter, especially for high pressure calibers like 10mm. In the video they make it seem like it's just a blowback, which it is not. Sorry if I'm bad at explaining this, I think there are videos that shows the difference alot better
