What is Lightening?

Bruce Brodnax

I believe that technically, Ian's facial hair format is referred to as a "Continental..."

Drakin Kubala

Looking forward to it.

Anders Weidik Bendsen

This makes me moist. Or well.. .. I'm suffering from this warm, fuzzy feeling that prohibits anything bitter or hostile, in spite of being jealous af. Looking forward to the dreaded date of dates.

Can't wait; this looks great and congrats on the sponsorship! Your show is one of the things that inspired me to get more into firearms and get my possession and acquisition licence (am Canadian). I really appreciate the time and effort you all put into this project. Here's to more opportunities like this in the future!

James G. Jones

Well a man can dream still, and who knows maybe one day time will be more available resource. I am glad to hear you atleast considered it, it shows you take to time to think of your fans/supporters. Definitely have the WW1 bug :) recently got a 1916 Luger. You guys are awesome by the way.

It has been suggested but sadly would require even more time consumption, which is the one resource we can't currently make more of.

Looking forward to seeing this!

Those WWI cartridges could make great Patreon high level premiums. I know how difficult it can be to form or find some of those cartridge cases.

C&Rsenal

I'd have to pry it out of Jay and Mark's hands first...

C&Rsenal

I... did not smell him?

C&Rsenal

I've handled the 308 but none of the 223s. They seem like a lot of fun and I'm sorely tempted.

I feel like the topic chases off the usual grant writers.

you might break the internet, if so, how will I keep up with the kardassingtons. oh heck, go for it!

James G. Jones

Hey would there be any chance to possibly get a empty cartidge from each fired weapon? I know it probably wont be all vintage ammo,but still be cool to have something fired from WW1 weapons..

Very nice! Can't wait!

Arturo Ceron

Awesome demonstration of the tactical roll! By the way, did you intend to break the 4th wall?

Oh, and Brownells rocks!

Can't wait!

Milsurp Mike

Instead of rolling, you should have done the worm.

Chairman

Please tell me Ian's hair smells like cosmoline...

Kent W.Fevurly

Awesome! Can't wait. Also - I WANT A "PATENTED PLASTIC POKEY T-SHIRT"!

Erik

Somebody left the Madsen in semi auto?!?!?! GET A ROPE!! XD Good job with Brownells! That seems like a perfect match - in order for them to keep runing a business that keeps old guns running, there must guys like Othias who generate an interest in shooting old guns.

Matthew Gibson

Imagine, being able to grumble about somebody leaving a gun in semi-auto like your kid left the light on. :) My envy meter is off the charts now. Thanks for all you and the team do for us!

Gavin Rea-Davies

Golden opportunity missed here.... Othias does his piece to camera before rolling along the line. While he was talking some one should so have swapped out one of the LMGs for a supersoaker weter pistol etc.

Congrats on the sponsorship! I recently purchased one of Brownell’s “retro” AR15’s and am very happy with it.

Chris Crowther

If you ever need another fat man to do something rolling around shooting light machine guns, let me know.

david weilbaecher jr

that is an exercise routine i can get behind. my kind of cross fit

RJ Ruble

Not so graceful, but a lot of fun.

Looking forward to it

You should have a danseur, such grace!

Veteran of the Mushroom Wars

They could also be referring to whatever they are shooting at, which may well be measurably lighter after being hit with a bunch of light machine gun rounds.

Brian Taylor

Looking forward to it. But I'll be a bit pedantic here. "Lightening" is the act of making something lighter. "Lightning" is that electrical discharge in the sky that is responsible for thunder. Unless you mean to refer to the fact that the guns are lighter after firing a bunch of rounds, I suspect you mean "lightning". (BTW, I have the same quibble over the confusion between "damping" and "dampening".)

Micheal N.

Very nice.

This will be sooo awesome!

Does the lightening hit you with lightning bolts and sparks like the quickening does?

Congrats on the sponsorship! A Smithsonian sponsorship definitely needs to come your way. Anvil also needs a Brownells sponsorship... cause ya know, Mark needs more tools.

Thaddeus Clark

I feel like the noise of the gunshots has been better captured here. Watching with headphones I about blew my eardrums out, this is beautiful! Keep up the great work!

Historical Firearms

If only we could all make rolling from light machine gun to light machine gun look that graceful. I cannot wait to see more hot, full auto mud rolling.
