    I think what is up there is a serious waste of money, time and ammo. Just what everyone needs, a manually reloaded single shot pistol.

    Couldn't agree more. Why go through that process, when you could pick up a nice pistol instead.

    Maybe he's going for the Welrod approach?

    Probably in a ban state and rather than using something known to work tried to reinvent the wheel?

    For just a tad more (he spent $400) he could have had a decent AR pistol.

    It fun to experiment and see if you can build something so I can't fault him there. HOWEVER, if I'm testing an unknown quantity for the first time, I'm wearing long sleeves, gloves and real eye pro

    I think stuff like this is pretty cool. If I had the tools, I would probably be doing something similar. Just for shits and giggles.

    There's a kid on youtube that's in the process of building a shotgun from scrap. Kinda interesting to watch.

    The cost isnt the point. The point is you can make one at home, and not buy it from someone

    You can do the same thing with an actual AR. Sorry just don't see the point. Not hating, everyone has things were into that people don't understand

    If nothing else, you could blind or burn someone with the flash.

    I'm not the one that gonna be holding it the first time it fires. That's what vises and string are for. Surprised an indoor range allowed him to run the damn thing. Just cuz it works, don't make it right.
