thank you [Music] thanks for joining us for today's video guys now let me add you a question
when was the last time that you treated yourself to a quality hand tool this is the carpenter
ads by our friends over at Warwood tool they've been in business over 165 years and the same
Hammer that drop forged this head was also making entrenching tools for our troops in
World War one and World War II not only do they have useful tools like this Carpenter
ads but also axes and sledgehammers and even railroad tools wrecking bars go check them
out in all their selection over at warwoodtool.com it's going to be so nice you want to throw
it up on your wall to display but we know this thing can handle anything and so you're
going to want to use it as well warwoodtool.com we thank them for sponsoring this video no
shut up and shoot all right fellas today we're talking about a new rifle that we are using
at Marksmanship camp this is the tipman m4-22 now in the past we have used well the Smith
Wesson m&p 22 it's a classic but then we found out so many ways that we could break them
we broke the firing pins in two we broke even like the barrel they had to go back to the
factory to be rear so while the controls and stuff of the m p 1522 are cool not recommended
for the long run at least in the commercial use that we do so not for Hardware uh yes
this is sbr'd and then for a while we were using the cmmg Banshees so these are mil-spec
lowers with pretty much the conversion kit uppers but again the hard use that we were
putting them through left me looking for something more you can kind of see how it's just kind
of floppy of course that's so added weight uh bore buddy makes a lot of aftermarket parts
that are good for these but that leads us into what we are now using and that is the
tipman M4 I picked it up at Shot Show I had heard great things about it and the first
thing I did in their Booth was tear it down I'm not sure if I was supposed to but I did
it anyway I pulled this bolt out and I went yes because it's solid it's simple and that
to me means reliability so once I saw this I knew we had to have them for Camp they were
nice enough to send us two so that we can play since we have two tiny snipers going
to join me onto the range today there's not really much to talk about this but it does
work just like a real AR where it has even a spring inside the buffer but this is a proprietary
Tippmann m422 only this is not a mil spec lower you can you can put uh mil-spec triggers
in it because we have the LaRue mbt2 stage but besides that everything is going to be
titman part only but they run great they're accurate let's shut up and shoot so this is
the challenge we use at Marksman Camp it is the TA Target's falling tree and it's not
like a dueling tree because you will have your own tree as the shooter so I'm going
to shoot the green one like this and as I think the paddle goes down tiny sniper is
going to shoot the one on the left and that orange paddle will trap all the way down into
the ground it's kind of fun it only takes eight well-placed shots I need to give you
a lead a little bit huh I don't know he's getting good I might not Mark's ready Set
Go [Music]
I need help I snap he got me two out of three two out of three now the magazines for the
titman 422 are proprietary and they're pretty cool because well they look like a regular
AR mag you depress this little button here and the sleeve falls down sometimes you pull
too far and you get it all the way because there's a second button we'll leave it off
for now but now you have little load assist levers that you can pull this down and you
can load I put little marks on mine so I have it sometimes I have a 10 and a 20 and then
of course topped off is a 25 we have 10 mags here so sometimes they uh yeah they're not
all marked yet now the coolest part though is the speed loader by titman now there's
some speed loaders that I've hadn't used and sometimes okay even at Marksman Camp I do
not allow our staff to use the speed loaders because the they'll damage them and they're
finicky this one is solid and well thought out well engineered and it's just amazing
so we put that in there and we're gonna put 25 around comes in we like to shoot the CCI
standard because it's subsonic don't pay extra for the subsonic stuff that's 25 close the
lid there is a little sponge over here that uh occasionally you put a couple drops of
I think it's silicone I don't know what it is tipman sells it though we've sticked that
in there but then of course we just shake them all down into that trough but this is
how stinking smooth and uh just perfect it works I do this and in a few seconds the whole
thing's loaded it's there's no weird levers it's just a smooth cycling turn and that's
it and now we have 25 rounds in so love the mag loader now it is a little pricey uh retail's
like 89.99 bucks but uh oh man if you shoot a lot absolutely worth it so this is a reliability
test because in a dueling tree challenge if you have a malfunction it really screws things
up so that's why we were really happy to get these tipmans the last two camps zero malfunctions
skip three two one go
[Music]
[Music] oh
24 seconds left you got a malfunction no oh yours is empty it was low why are you sure
me
[Music]
come on [Music] There It Is Well Adventures ran fine yeah mine ran fine I like the reloads
the reloads are fun and then that's why I like these because uh over like say the Mossberg
just absolute trash the the controls are fake but the controls on these are exactly the
same it has the bolt hold open which leads for a really fast reload the same mg banshees
won't have that because uh it's it's a modified AR Lower um the M PS do but again the plastic
don't like it I grabbed a mixture of ammo out of the gun cabinet and I didn't have any
uh Remington Thunderbolt that trash would have been a good reliability test however
this is a federal auto match we both have a MAG of that let's just dump it into Fun
Target see if they run go ahead there will be supersonic though so they're gonna be loud
[Applause] all right
[Music]
oh here's a quieter [Applause] I went subsonic for a little bit 100 malfunction free okay
you take this Blazer mag I'm gonna take this arm score mag
[Applause] [Music] [Applause] you're good I didn't have a last round bolt told open
but other than that it ran great we did have some trouble with the hammer resets and that's
something with uh aftermarket hammers in the first place because like I said earlier we're
running the LaRue uh two-stage MBT a lot of 22s give you issues with hammers it because
of the it doesn't have a full power stroke like a center fire the first several hundred
rounds out of these we were having that on a fully topped Off magazine so if you find
you have a issue with the 22s especially on a topped off mag go down to like 15 or 20
rounds and a lot of times that will help well after a couple hundred rounds though they
started running great and we haven't had an issue so it's just a little break-in deal
so now we have a Brownells mpo and a LaRue mount on the tipman M4 we have this Federal
Premium Ultra match 22 ammo in there we are zeroed so now we're going to shoot a six no
I'm looking at Target six a 10 shot group I suppose that'll really tell us there's a
22 I mean why not I want to see what it does the stock collapsed on me
wow some of them are all in the same hole we'll go check it not bad at all for you know
a sub 600.22 we've got a 0.93 inch group 10 shot group mind you at 50 yards that's 1.7
MOA so I mean for some automatic that's not terrible I mean it's not for quartz and status
but hey those are all scroll headshots very practical
[Music]
foreign
Ty yards with this thing but I don't breathe when I shoot but anyway I I so far I'm very
impressed with it you come to youth Marksman Camp we'll have your kids shooting on it and
training with it um like I said earlier they're a little under 600 for this is the M4 pro
version we went with the fluted barrel that's a little lighter for the kids and yes the
front is composite so that makes it lightweight for younger Shooters as well they have several
different lines though and Elite versions and a red line versions and then there's a
gun over Gun Owners of America version where a portion of the sales will go to support
your 2A right so that's a good one to check out so you can go check them out there thanks
for stopping by today guys okay I love you bye
thank you
[Music]
did you see that I came in like a wrecking ball
[Music] oh perfect yeah
