Pretty interesting. Makes a lot of sense to me, if you regularly perform said type of thing. Thanks for sharing it!

No question he's fast with that configuration, but...
He promotes the CP33 as a PDW then talks about room clearing with it. :o
 The CP33 is a fun platform and I shoot mine more than any of my guns. It is absolutely unsuited for nightstand or practical use because you can't leave the mags loaded or the feed lips will crack and the bolt buffers(3D printed) start to come apart after a couple thousand rounds. Then again, I'm one of those people that uses it wrong - as a pistol without a bunch of silly printed accessories hanging off of it. Youtube is a wonderful place.

There is a recent video on FORGOTTEN WEAPONS about this also.

He needs more tatts before I can take him seriously.

I guess this is how we’ll be expected to shoot AK & AR pistols, etc. after Xiden outlaws the pistol brace.

   Indeed, the CP33 does raise questions. I am interested to see this demonstrated with another pistol that fits the bill better. It looks like the extension at the rear of the slide is required. He dose some shooting with some of the short shotguns from the cheek. I have not found the short shotguns interesting in general, but he sure can run them.

I shot a friends 7.62 x 39 AR pistol a few times. This was back before shouldering them was generally accepted. In CA you can not but a stock on them so it was a padded buffer tube to the cheek.

It was exceedingly loud.  ;D

Using a pistol with a pistol brace against the shoulder, like you would a standard rifle; the weapon is now defined by ATF as a short barreled rifle.  Don't argue with me, call the ATF.  Cheek technique may be an interesting way around that issue.

Clearing a room or a house with a firearm needs specific training to be done without unreasonable risk.  Pretty sure that this may be of use to some dedicated professionals on security details, not for the average armed citizen.

Not trying to offend anyone, but it is not useful to me.

No youtube operator who wants to be taken seriously can hope to prevail without at least one complete 'sleeve'.

Well. The guy is very effective. And like he said the gun he's chosen is well suited for his style. I always say whatever works.. do it. Makes me wonder if this side project gun I have would be perfect for this guys style. I have alot strapped on mine atm for night use etc. And don't feel like taking it all off to try his exact method. But. I do have a brace on mine that may work uniquely well for this style. The SIG Rattler braces have a cuff that spins on them. And instead of C-clamping the gun like he does. I can instead rotate my cuff out for a angled grip. I compared the Romeo 4H and my EOTECH with eye really close like he does. And I'm not sure why he chooses the pipe style red dot. The EOTECH seems like a way better choice. But this may be the gun this guy needs to take his game up a few notches as far as a gun that has legit power. It's a CSM MP-57. brings rifle like power to handguns. I modified my mags and extended them and can fit 28+1 rounds. Total length of 11.5 inches folded. May try his method today just for giggles. Took a few pics to show how the cuff can rotate and serve as a crude grip maybe. This things loud tho. Gonna feel crazy firing it so close to my face lol. I'll write back if it works better than shouldered regularly

I have a braced CP33 and while it’s a fun range toy and hasn’t malfunctioned with CCI round nose mini mags it would not be my first choice for HD. I have Kel Tec Pmr30 & CMR30 as well so I’m familiar with these type mags, and yes if loaded properly with good ammo they’re reliable.
But for a low recoil easy to use handgun a Shield EZ 380 is a better choice.
Or if capacity is your goal and want to make Swiss cheese out of something just get a Ruger Charger .22 and a GSG-110 round drum. I run this setup and it is just as reliable as the CP33.

Ok. I use tapatalk and it won't let me link YouTube the proper way thru this app. But made a quick video showing it can be done with this rascal. And this will be my first attempt at linking videos to chat with another method so bear wimme for a little. Just a video showing that the power of 5.7 can be had in the same size if not smaller than some 22s. And proof the right side bolt isn't too close. But u can order a left handed model of this pistol with bolt on other side. Or simply cut a slot on a right hand model if it bugs ya and matters.. if u already own a righty that is. And BTW I don't have a tripod. Not trying to become a YouTube star lol. But it's the only way I know how to show yall. But this would be fun to do with one of the 22 models listed above just for ammo price reasons. So I may get a keltec soon to experiment more with and do so cheaper. 5.7 is crazy expensive atm. But is a round worth carrying for actual self defense tho and feeds very reliably
