“A collaborative concept between the private sector and the military sector in Canada”
Sig MCX SPEAR LT – Will it Bend?
@skillsgaptrainer “Our two Directors, Ion and I (Valentin), like your videos. However, we’ve had a busy year and haven’t had time to see all of your videos yet. Can’t wait to see this one though. The title “SIG MCX SPEAR” really catches the eye. Now we’re talking Lucas. Now we’re talking. Hope you make ongoing SIG MCX SPEAR videos, so Canadians can see what pushing the limits with a SIG MCX SPEAR 7.62×51 is like. You look stronger nowadays, so maybe you can use these big platforms as good as you do the 5.56 now. The civilian version of the U.S. Army’s new XM7 rifle, that we can’t own in Canada, and that might be good for the army here actually? The SIG MCX SPEAR 7.62×51 looks great for sports shooting though or something iconic about it.
All of our colleagues here have been talking about bb’s, pellets, c02, batteries, flashlights, paintballs, tazers, rubber pistols, air guns, or talking up .22 bolt action rifles for self defence against mafias, gangs, SHTF & dystopian survival. Everything except training with a 7.62×51 semi. If there was a .02 rimfire bullet, our colleagues would do that, as it would be applauded by media and government and corporate admis. 🙂 Help!!! Go the other way Lucas. Show us what life is like with real calibers. What about these 6.5, 6.8, 7 calibers? Also, what should Canadian army use to overcome modern army with body armour or people with 7.62×39 mm rifles? Any insights on bullet design and the future of bullets for citizens or armies or cops in North America? Despite so much information out there. Lots of critical or key questions, seems that premium questions, it’s not immediately obvious or commonly discussed, even after browsing for a little while through various videos.”

@skillsgaptrainer @canadianforces “Really nice photo of the armed soldier. It’s nice to see the CAF have enough capital to be able to respect infantry with proper battle gear. If the government keeps de-funding the most important institutions – such as CBSA, Police or CAF – thus compromising public safety, domestic resilience, and national security: where the problems are as severe as only having 3 days of ammo, and probably less food than that on hand – we have to brainstorm innovative solutions to so the battle for Canada strong and free is realized in new age of AI – new tech order. There might be a method to significantly boost defense force and civilian security consciousness and applied engineering reasoning principles, for very little investment.
