    Exactly, that's my point. So you're saying I have more say than NF because i took a few carbine courses? Even did a lot if SD pistol courses. Maybe I should start a channel.

      I would hope that isn't the case. The top youtube personalities crush most television ratings, even the top gun channels kill daytime TV. If we want to see the best content I'd hope Google can compensate these folks accordingly. We certainly aren't going to see gun shows on the television any time soon, youtube is our strongest media presence.

        Sure his vids can run on, but in case you didn't know, wait for it,
        You can fast forward. What a novel idea.

        It's his gig, he can do it the way he wants.

        I have watched some of his stuff when I google around on reviews. He takes the time, gives a honest opinion, and actually does a descentyjob on reviews. I like that he is a family guy, and he seems like a contributing member of society.
        Seems to me that he personally buys a majority of the stuff he reviews, that can't be cheap.

        Sure, he seems a bit anal and particular, but he is doing a well enough job to get a following. But of course, all the hardcore operators on Cal guns are going to attack his credibility and character.

        If you can do a better job, have at it, and wait for the elite on calguns to shame you for your efforts.

        Hickok45 is my go to for a review of something I am interested in.

        Cheers.

          Nutnfancy's video of the 995 carbine is my favorite.

              Honestly, as someone who experienced some pretty high level training in firearms in military service I don't have a problem with it. As long as there is a defined course of fire that objectively measures results it's darn good training in my book. The best shots I've ever met never served, they shoot ground squirrels at 200+ yards on hot windy days.

              I like that he takes the guns out and puts them through garbage conditions and seems to run them as hard and fast as he can even when it's a Savage kid's rifle. Unlike every other youtube reviewer that never has anything at all critical to say about the gun they got from a sponsor.

His target audience are people who are even less knowledgeable.
                  for a guy who wasn't knowledgeable as you say, he made a good amount of money doing reviews. From LL Bean to Blue Force all paid him top dollar.

                      I didn't make the point that he was ES. You missed the entire point then make the effort to misspell my SN on purpose. Haha.
                      lol, i see you have never read a hopetonbrown thread before.

                      Maybe he should make aviation videos instead.
                      his extra insight on gear is from him touching almost every interesting firearm on the market and taking it through its paces. your point on tactics is about at valid as your point about his career.

                        Nutnfancy's videos are nothing but hour long videos of opinionated non-sense with fillers in between. He lost any credibility when he made his SR-15 video claiming that a Smith & Wesson M&P-15 is just as good as without any mention of the proprietary designs that went in to the SR-15. Also 1/100th of every single video is only technical data.

                          You tube entertainment (or not). This is what Nutnfancy is about. He gives his opinion about guns, gear and his philosophy on life. He just happens to record it and post for all to see.

                              all i know is that NF does more Run-n-Gun to review 1 gun than I have done in 5 years of shooting.

                              the downfall of living in Socal and BLM spots that are way too far to go for a day of shooting.

                              all this mess was started because of stupid SJWs and Wall Street Journal. and also the PewPewDie guy.

What is a problem is when you threaten my customer service team and make demands instead of being civil. Plain and simple just don't be an a**hole (where you told us to shove it).

                                Literally no one is butthurt. There is a difference between appreciating videos that provide opinion based on technical data and scientific evaluation and herp derp videos made by some budget bill using 3 shot groupings as a basis of scientific evidence.
