I don't understand mag dumps

[Gingerbeardman]

I'll tell you why. The amount of gun content on YouTube is reaching full saturation where every gun has been discussed ad nauseum in every situation by every person. The only thing left is ridiculous comparisons to get views.

From a practical perspective, I have no problem with shooting fast...provided you can keep your shots on target. Shoot as fast as you can hit, and train to get faster. But sending uncontrolled, unaccounted-for rounds downrage, busting up target stands, or worse, exiting the range and penetrating the neighbor's wall 1/2 a mile away (real life call I took just a few weeks ago) makes you reckless and a danger to everyone around you.

At the end of the day, it's your gun and your money. Do whatever floats your boat provided you're not endangering the lives or property of others.

This is a very good point. I enjoy a mag dump, but it has to be safe. Just as with anything else firearm related.

I don’t understand rocket science and brain surgery.

We interrupt this thread to show you real mag dumps.. Including 40MM speedfeeding.

And yet those Texas jackalopes overran their position! If only they had used live 40mm grenades rather than the blue practice ones! Their QRF, consisting of Ralphie with his trusty Red Ryder bb gun (with that thing in the stock that tells time) could have made the difference as we know what a "dead eye" he is!

The question is whether those that do mag dumps are capable of actual marksmanship and accuracy?

Verses the opposite, where accomplished shooters are capable of shooting fast with precision?

Kinda the same reason some ranges rent machine guns
It’s just fun!

I was taught not to lose hope when faced with a submachine gun. I was told, "One well-aimed shot will silence one!".

They are not mutually exclusive.

When I was a soldier, it was called a mad minute. Mainly used for troop morale. I never heard of any opfor hurt by it.

I thought then, and continue to think, it's a waste of ammunition.

Hm...I thought the "mad minute" was something else involving a certain number of accurate placements in a minute.

Great thought, I had a class that taught how to take down a jet with an M-16.

I believe the British, with 15 well shot rounds during WW1 in under a minute.

Seems correct.

Seems there was something else as well. I'll need to look into it.

Pretty much! If only they could have some sort of screening before they allow just anyone to have a Gun Tube!

(and by Gun Tube I’d include any of the Dipsh@t not so sound trainer wanna be’s)

Video games don't count as training!

Education is much preferred over censorship.

YouTube is already going way beyond public sentiment on regulationg and demonitizing gun tubers to not post video at all.

A much better plan is to publicly highlight the dangerous, the idiots and those posting bad information.

If you aren't doing a mag dump or two into a trash can every week, then you aren't really shooting.

We don't do enough of that. I know one super qualified individual who has been calling out a lot of stupidity and he definitely takes a lot of crap from fan bros.

Couldn’t say, never played one. But do remember the class though. And the other stupid one on how to protect yourself from an atomic bomb with a shelter half.

If you don't practice, you'll never get good at it!
