Would this firearm cause a Ruger #1 Guy to sort of smile?

Enjoy!

Looks like fun to shoot, but it would get expensive quickly!

Ian gets to play with all the cool toys!

As a Ruger #1 owner it really wouldn't make me smile to compare both.

However it would be fun to shoot one of them but costly at the price of ammo these days.

Not my cup of tea but it would be if I had to go to war with one or the other.

The kind of gun that requires taxpayer funding to shoot, spray and pray.

Jfet, thanks for sharing. I don't know how much of a comparison there is between it and a Ruger No.1, but the similarities between it and an H&K MP-5 come to mind.

I was not trying to compare the firearms. I just think it would be fun to watch a hard core fan of Ruger #1 rifles shoot the firearm in the video and then try not to smile after dumping the magazine. I admit that the title of the thread is click bait to get ya’ll to watch the video. Just watching it made me smile. I hope it has made ya’ll smile, too.

I am a No. 1 guy and I am smiling....for sure!

It looks like it fires from an open bolt?
I’m a #1 guy & I keep thinking of all that brass I’d have to pick up to reload & I’m sure some would be lost?
fun to watch though, thanks for sharing.

The small auto carbines are always a hoot to shoot, but my favorite sub gun is a Thompson.

I just fail to see what this has to do with a Ruger nº1

@Joker12
Ones for a sniper the other is for up close and personal or if you have a lot of people that need warning off.

I agree mate why thow pebbles when you can throw house bricks.
If'n it needs to be stopped in a hurry only a 45 will do.

I have a few of those ammo burner toys!

A lot of guns from WW1 and WW2 era fired from an open bolt. I won't go into the reasons, but suffice to say that it was easier to manufacture.

Some famous examples of open bolt firing guns are the BAR, Bren Light Machine Gun, MP40, Sten Submachine Gun and the Uzi.

@Jfet - Thanks for sharing. Cool video.
