Ultimate Glock Test

[NytWolf]

Lighten up, peeps. FPSRussia doesn't make his videos for technical information or for actual reliability testing. He is just a video blogger and his fans watch his videos for entertainment purposes. Sheesh! I mean, seriously, why do you think he talks with that fake "Russian" accent?

[iareConfusE]

What does shooting a gun with another gun prove? Notice how he only shot the slide and not the frame. What does throwing a gun in a hot stove prove? What does blowing up a gun prove?

The only relevant "torture tests" are ones where the gun can actually still be fired and functions after the test is performed.

It started off good with the gun being frozen in a block of ice, but as soon as he got the gun out of the ice "Russian style" he lost me.

He isn't trying to prove anything... The video isn't a torture test for reliability or to showcase how strong a Glock is built.... The video is called Ultimate Glock Destruction. He's just destroying a Glock - why would you assume that he's attempting to do a professional controlled test?

The title that the OP gave this thread is misleading you guys more than the actual video is.

Love this Guy. Not only does he get to play with a lot of cool toys but he's a local Georgian as well.

His stuff is entertaining and I enjoy his short reviews to Hickoc45's views who also is a Southerner from TN. Lots of cool stuff in GA that could be had if you have to doe and are legally allowed to own.

Do people really take him that seriously?

Still wouldnt buy one...

Alright, sweet, I'm not insane. I was just thinking it was a entertaining set of videos he has posted. Especially the ones where he shoots exploding targets. Simple entertainment for a simple guy.

Well, you know, like those guys that buy new xboxes or iPhones and break them, he's hoping he'll get enough hits on youtube to get enough kickback to pay for the item.

Also, in terms of firearms safety ...

1) Hold a gun (that you haven't checked is clear, since you just shot it out of a block of ice) by the barrel and smash it against stuff while it's pointed at your gut
2) Shoot a tennifer treated hunk of metal 3 feet from your feet

I've always enjoyed watching his videos. Very funny guy and lucky to have the access/money to all those cool toys

What's one run for? I'm looking at picking up my first pistol in when we get our bonus in a few months. I like a 9 because I can shoot it all day long without hurting my pocket book too much, but it's not the most powerful thing in the world, and I have a difficult time hitting anything. I much prefer the 1911's I've shot, but they all seem to be $1000 and up, plus close to $0.50/round. Is the Glock upwards of $1000 too?

They're about half that much, new, and the used market is chock full of 'em.

Many people find that they don't shoot well with Glocks because of the steep grip angle. I personally prefer it, but others like a more vertical grip (a la 1911.) You could make the case that training will resolve the issue, and you could also make the case that you may as well shoot what comes more naturally to you.

If you like the Glock but want a more vertical grip angle, look at the Springfield XD.

Glock 19 is a good choice for an all around 9mm. They run about $550.

I understand what you are saying but the title of this thread is "Ultimate Glock test."

Its just frustrating to see a nice pistol get destroyed for no reason. Hes reckless...Im not a big fan.

I highly, highly doubt that FPSRussia is worried about the five hundred bucks he spent on the gun. He gets over 2 million views on every video within a couple weeks. He's pulling in at least $100,000 a year from his YouTube account alone.

am i the only one that is annoyed listening to him?

no...once i saw FPS russia i turned it off.

[SouperMan]

I will light a candle for the Glock tonight...Lol

I was expecting 5K rounds being shot or something. Waste of a perfectly good gun indeed.
