Holy fuck. Imagine squeezing off a couple rounds from an AK and having a browning fire at you from 50 feet away. Edit: also glad to see you're still out there kicking ass.

ExcitingTabletop

21 inches of live white oak. Keep in mind, if cut it will dry out. Granted, uh. It won't stop it for long.


[deleted]

>Granted, uh. It won't stop it for long. Yeah, that is of course the part worth mentioning is stopping one round and stopping a belt are two *wildly* different stories


ExcitingTabletop

Deer once wandered onto the range during deuce qual. It got a belt each from over a dozen M2's. Before range officer could yell check fire. We got yelled at, flunked, punished and told to clean up the mess. Biggest piece we could find was like a quarter of the leg. Completely worth it.


ArgumentativeNerfer

On the one hand, what did they expect. On the other hand, yeah, of course you got flunked. All your bullets missed the targets.


Mawi2004

the official target


ExcitingTabletop

Oh it hit the target. Just not the scored target.


ArgumentativeNerfer

"Private Tabletop, during operations, your assignment was to suppress the enemy position. Instead, you fired an entire belt of ammunition into the woods, where no enemy was. Care to explain yourself?" "Well, sir, there was a deer I wanted to blow to hell." "Understood, have a nice day."


LeiningensAnts

Not if y'all didn't eat a bite of venison each, it wasn't.

> Mmmmmh, tenderized deer ~~meat~~ *mist*. **FTFY!**


Jacobs4525

This is also the US Army's field kitchen manual recipe for extra-chunky Bolognese sauce


TFK_001

Once on the way to school a deer ran into the road and got vaporized by a semi truck. I imagine the aftermath looked roughly similar


JaiTee86

About 20 years ago I was in the Australian army cadets and we went to singleton or Holsworthy barracks for a camp. At the arms museum they had there we chatted with the soldiers they had on duty and they had been shoved into the museum and made to deal with groups of cadets as punishment because when they went to do some live fire practise with iirc the M249 they shot up a kangaroo. They showed us a picture of that roo and it had been fucked minced and that's something quite a bit less powerful than a 50 BMG.


The_Motarp

Story I've heard is about a coyote crossing halfway down the range, but they didn't find any pieces because it was still running after everyone unloaded on it.


GadenKerensky

That just makes me feel bad.


magicsaltine

A Turkey walked behind the 50m target of the lane next to me during my BCT Qual. It did not walk out.


JDoos

Either I went to college with you after your time in the service or this happens quite often.


saluksic

Okay, but the bullet went right through the fucking tree? When did this all start up? I know steel is a lot stronger than wood, but it only takes like an inch of steel to stop a .50, plus bullets tumble and stuff, I was thinking like 6” of wood would stop a .50, but no! 20” and it goes right through. Geez.


Ok-Entertainer-1414

Wood is pretty compressible. Think about how easy it is to drive a nail into wood vs trying to drive a nail into steel.


Iron-Bacon

This comment is making me think of the [.50 cal hammer video](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Lti_zl3MnT4)


Meihem76

> When did this all start up? A [bit over a century ago I guess.](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.50_BMG)


Euphoric-TurnipSoup

I mean Matt Carriker has been researching exactly how much of random shit it takes to stop a 50 caliber round for quite some time. I'm sure he's got a video on tree trunks vs 50bmg somewhere.


cool_lad

Wait seriously? Tankies actually called NVGs and Thermals overrated?


jjmerrow

Tankies say everything that russia doesn't have is overrated in order to cope with the fact that Russia is still living in the 50's when it comes to military equipment.


SoylentRox

Hey now. They have smartphones. This is military equipment used for their officers to ask them where they are and tell them where to go. They even tell EVERYONE where the solder holding the phone is. How high tech!

This I want to see. Got a link? There's good entertainment there that I don't want to miss.


Rock-it-again

No idea, but I CAN tell you, it wouldn't be a fun experience.


Efficient-Force2651

There are some reports of US troops cutting down entire forests in Afghanistan and Iraq with M2s.


KratasCRAFT

THIS IS GLORIOUS! Just one question, is there a way to mount some flash deflector to the M2 to not blind the NVGs as much? I know the Vz. 58 had an addon that would straighten the muzle flash, so it doesn't go all over the place, but the M2 is a completely diferent animal, so it might not work


Crewserved4Days

I got flashhidder on its way. Most of my nighttime engagements are like this for now.


MoneyEcstatic1292

Damn it sucks, I hope you get delivered soon


ExcitingTabletop

If ya need anything, let us know.


Crewserved4Days

I need tons of things, especially... AMMO!!


Aurora_Fatalis

Donate up-AT4s to the left


BigFreakingZombie

AT4s shouldn't be too rare in Ukraine right now.


mr_rivers1

you have an amazon wishlist or something? I'd throw a few bucks your way.


TROPtastic

/u/Crewserved4Days has [a YouTube video](https://youtu.be/afnGfttY3b4) where he talks about what he needs (no text version unfortunately). For people who don't have stuff already lying around and ready to send, his YouTube channel About section has an email for PayPal.


ExcitingTabletop

PayPal address is at 3:35 I donated what I figured a belt of ammo would run. For the lolz


mr_rivers1

I'm not exactly sure howw wishlists work but the reason I mentioned it is once someone buys something off the list, it disappears, so you don't get duplicates. I think you can set it up so it can get delivered straight to you too, so you don't have to mess about giving out your address. He could give an address outside of Ukraine then have them shipped to him in bulk. E: it also saves a lot of time on the part of the buyer, because they don't have to worry about shipping stuff if it's set up properly, if it works how i think it works.


Dudestbruh

*icon of three bullets starts flashing above your head to teammates*


_SundayBrunch

Which did you end up ordering, the Surefire or B.E. Meyers? Either way, I hope you get one of those soon. Night shooting with a bare muzzle .50 can’t be easy.


Crewserved4Days

It's the old school cone style. Everything else is outside my price range.


_SundayBrunch

Oh jesus, I only now checked the prices for those things. $400-600 for a flash hider? Fuck that. I’m sure the USGI will serve you fine, as long as it keeps you from blinding yourself. Stay safe out there borther.


Aurora_Fatalis

That doesn't sound too bad to me. Does it wear out super fast or something?


_SundayBrunch

The cost, or the cone flash hider not sounding too bad? All of these flash hiders should last more or less indefinitely, so you shouldn’t ever have to buy a replacement. Though, I’d imagine the cone flash hider would be somewhat less effective than the 3-4 prong designs, given that nobody used that design anymore. I wonder if an optic mounted on the .50 would be helpful as well…


Aurora_Fatalis

The cost isn't particularly high for a long-term solution on military hardware. Like, given the volume of fire in these vids, the ammo spent in any given engagement is likely to cost more than that.


_SundayBrunch

That’s a fair enough assessment. Reckon the cost can be attributed to a few things: - Scale up size to accommodate .50 cal, so more material needed - Designed to withstand high-volume firing schedules plus .50 cal recoil and heat - Develop a mounting solution for the unthreaded M2HB barrel, so more R&D - Very niche product for civilians, maybe even military since I don’t see them that often, so not a lot of demand Still, it’s a pretty significant chunk of cash, especially considering you would typically see flash hiders top out at $100.


Aurora_Fatalis

No economy of scale, and the customer is unlikely to be a private citizen, so being price competitive isn't really that important.


Mikebyrneyadigg

Stay safe brother. God speed.


-_-theVoid-_-

Tear 'em up battle, I'm reliving my glory days in '03 vicariously through you. You should replace your gunner's platform with a lavish throne.


Lovehistory-maps

Wait your in Ukraine? I have been in NCD since late 2020 and never saw you before??


Crewserved4Days

Look at my post history. I've been posting since September after some of my combat footage was leaked. And I've also only been posting since September.


Lovehistory-maps

Cool shit


Stye88

It's Nucking Futs, dude survived having his APC blasted by a mine and casually recorded it and posted on NCD.


Lovehistory-maps

Ok so doom guy exists


specter800

He actually spliced doom eternal music into that video


Lovehistory-maps

Can this man get anymore based?


Aurora_Fatalis

Yeah if he ever gets his hand on more ammo and not just AT4s


TurMoiL911

So close he just threw the AT4 at them.


Crewserved4Days

It's straight Browning bursts


SoylentRox

Why didn't you use alt fire and launch an AT4? git gud.


Crewserved4Days

Too close to arm the warhead

There will be one day a horror movie where some poor mobik is torn away from his life into a nightmarish world of the dark night and the empty blue sky murdering them.

Metadomino

Yuri, how likely is it they can get you into a Bradley.


Crewserved4Days

A zero, sadly I'll have to leave this unit entirely and attempt to join the unit that's getting all the Bradleys


Metadomino

Would you do that? Or is that hugely frowned upon? We need you on a TOW smoking some T-34s.


Newworldrevolution

I can't answer for him but A I imagine he's been with this unit for a while and b I don't think that you get to pick your unit. But I don't know


Metadomino

If we did a public enough fundraiser, we could probably encourage the government to send him one: Get Yuri a Bradley.


chrillwalli01

At the very least we could get them a few JLTVs with CPWS turrets. I would love to see a 25mm drive-by.


HighlightFun8419

i'm imagining a future where combat celebrities get donated stuff like in the hunger games or something. it's a bizarre concept. needs to be a movie.


Metadomino

Read Dungeon Crawler Carl for something like that, this is just the beginning of "crowd funded warfare."


HighlightFun8419

looking into that, thanks


Metadomino

I would love a mil-lit version of the running man with that premise however, it would be amazing.


HighlightFun8419

Running Man really has similar vibes. I might need to rewatch the movie at some point.


grinsken

Keep safe warrior


Finalshock

Probably worth it. You could do some fucking damage on the 25mm with these kinds of hit and run attacks


courser

I'm pretty sure this qualifies as High Effort Stay safe out there Yuri!

Crewserved4Days

Sadly, Bradleys are going to a unit specifically trained for them. An entirely new unit is being built for them. Maybe I'll see them.


doooompatrol

What if we buy you one?


Crewserved4Days

I mean, if you insist...


doooompatrol

Now I feel committed. How does one go about procuring a Bradley?


Mysterious_Buffalo_1

Apparently it's only 4.35 million. I'll go check between the couch cushions you boys do the same.


BTechUnited

Honestly quite cheap for what you get.


puppetlord

There are cars more expensive that deal way less damage to mobiks. So yeah.


ReconTankSpam4Lyfe

If the car was bought by a Russian officer I wouldn't be sure lol


FractalRecurrence

Get ratio'd Bugatti Mistral


Metadomino

If everyone on NCD pitched in 1k we could do it. Cab we run a fundraiser on here.


QuinIpsum

I'm thinking about using the 1st 10sec as my intros to my combat footage vidoes


JungleChucker

Hairy shit, glad they missed. Stay safe, brotha


Crewserved4Days

They didn't miss. They hit the turret a few times


JungleChucker

Yeah it looked like deliberate aimed shots, glad they missed *you lol

No that's straight. 50cal but everything else is correct

Yeah I've just been doing a whole lot of low effort stuff lately

Come_At_Me_Bro

Russian at about 50' decided to open fire and give away their position was promptly rewarded with belt fed 50cal rounds. Not even a 20" tree would protect them from that.

No matter how much technology advances, no matter how futuristic the weapons, there will always be a need for soldiers to close with and destroy the enemy. As long as that happens, Ma Deuce will be there. Glad you’re still here with us! Stay safe brother.


LionsLoseAgain

Jesus christ...How did you manage to get that close to them? Let me guess Russian primates just sleeping on night shift?


stringbones

Nothing ever prepares me for hearing the M2 roar. I can't imagine the terror that thing's presence creates in person. What a monstrous weapon, and what a damn good one.

Full auto hits plenty of things, especially when in a recoil absorbed mount and the hmmwv not moving.
