It's always a good day when Johathan and Ian get together.
-
The Royal armories does not endorse any claims relating to the alleged burning of war materials by Australian persons following the second world war
-
Ian proudly presenting the SA80 and Jonathan saying "explain yourself" was hilarious
-
The SA-80 is a punk rock AR-18. I liked Mikhail Kalashnikov's quote when he was shown one: "You must have very clever soldiers."
-
Gun Jesus and The Curator Together… 🤝 This moment deserves a poster
-
"All the germans did was remake every single part to the correct spec and hardness." may be one of the funniest lines in the video.
-
I love how Mr. Ferguson ends the video holding what is basically better known as a Star Wars blaster than an actual firearm.
-
Ian: picks a complex and gritty looking lmg Johnathan: stick with mag
-
Johnathan's reaction to Ian walking up with a SA80 is gold.
-
Gun Jesus and the Royal Gun Curator - One of the best GunTuber collabs!!!
-
this is just therapy for Jonathan for what gamespot subjects him into
-
I simply LOVE the fact that even though they're both nerding out to an epic degree, neither of them has a gap in muzzle or trigger discipline. Even though they're pulling guns that are clearly unloaded (hell, some of them don't even have available ammunition anymore), they are both such consummate professionals that there's never any lapse of safety. Gotta say, I'm enamored.
-
LMAO @ the SA80 "I feel like I'm being trolled."
-
12:41 “shall we do some midsized guns?” Jonathan already did that round with the mars
-
I love the anxiety Johnathan exhibits as Ian pulls out the SA80. Ian couldn't resist to troll, you gotta give it to him, it was a perfect opportunity.
-
My grandfather helped develop the Charlton Automatic Rifle. After there was interest in the prototype and it needed more development he wad give a crate of ammo and in his words was told "go try to blow it up" (I love kiwi engineering). So he took it out to Ocean Beach in Hawkes Bay where he lived and did just that. Great video, I loved it, Cheers guys.
-
Him picking the left handed SA80 perfectly proves what you said in the video on it! When put on the spot most people will not notice the fact it is left handed.
-
I love the whole sequence of Ian bringing in the SA80 as a power move, only for him (a famously left-handed shooter) to miss that detail about that specific rifle.
-
"HK would like to thank you for adopting this" This here right on the spot
-
Okay, props to the editors for all the cheeky annotations and jokes!
