    Yankee Marshal Is Annoying

    I like some of the content on his channel be he can be an a**.

    The video is about why he thinks appendix carry with a striker fired pistol is stupid. Now that could mean a lot of things and my first impression is his opinion is the striker fired gun is not as safe as a SA/DA. But no, in fact he doesn't imply that one gun is safer than the other, instead he is saying that due to the difference in designs coupled with peoples lack of intelligence and/or training it's more dangerous. In conclusion you are stupid if you do it! His words. How tactful Not even saying I disagree but gees.

    FYI I don't carry appendix but don't care if you do.

    YM is the Scotty Kilmer of the gun world. Seriously one of the biggest trolls on YT.

      All I needed was a few episodes to decide that he is not worth listening to... None of his opinions holds water...

      Waste of time to watch his channel. There are others that provide better content.

          Well, I agree with him that " the striker fired gun is not as safe as a SA/DA."

          So much so, that I won't own/carry such a stoopid design. That silly-azz tab doesn't know your trigger finger from a stick in your pants, or a worn-out IWB holster.

          Many many documented cases of such a gun with this "trigger safety" going off and injuring the "operator"-from Secret Service Agents, to county Sheriffs Deputies.

          An ND with these gunz is a very distinct and high probability.

            I think he was even trying call out another YouTuber over some sort of stolen Valor claim, that was totally baseless.

            Just another YouTuber that relies on fluff over substance.

              I would like to see the stats on that beyond just opinions. I personally know of no incidence where a striker fired pistol has failed and caused an ND without operator error. It can happen with anything mechanical though.

              I did however see video of stupid people showing off and shooting their junk.

              I own and practice with both, carry both, have confidence in both, but nothing is getting pointed down the front of my pants

                YM is a tool, I'm glad he's a pro 2A person but his personality/attitude is attention seeking and he's also a total sh*t disturber. I think he even tried to say that Mike of Mrgunsngear lied about being in the miltary which was proven he served then also attacked Military arms channel. Dude is now clickbait.

                  I recall reading here in the annuls of CGN about two incidents of self-wounding with striker fired, sillyazz trigger safety guns. One a Secret Service agent on the practice range, and the other an off-duty Sheriffs deputy somewhere in Georgia.

                  Secret Service agent was on the firing line, stopped firing and proceeded to holster his gun. But he left his booger hook on the boom switch while doing so, and his holster contacted his booger hook, which forced his trigger finger onto the sillyazz trigger safety, and the gun discharged as he shoved it into his holster!

                  He instantaneously gave himself a typical case of "glock leg".


                  The off-duty Sheriffs deputy had been to breakfast with his wife, and she drove. Back at the car, as the deputy lowered himself into the passengers seat, his worn out holster "squished" his gun up. Once seated and completely in the car, he leaned to his left, and with his right hand went to push his gun back into the holster. Unfortunately (YOU GUESSED It) the inner liner of his worn holster kinked, and the fold of that kink was right in front of that dumb-azz trigger safety tab. So when he pushes the gun back into the worn holster, the kink discharges the gun!

                  Bullet entered high on his right butt-cheek, exits low on his right butt-cheek, enters back of his right calf, exits front of his right calf, punches a hole in the floorboard of wifey's car, and buries itself in the asphalt parking lot. Dood shot himself TWICE, his wife's car, AND the parking lot with that sillyazz, striker fired, trigger safety gun!

                  And for women who carry a gun in the purse? Think about all the items in there that could get in front of that sillyazz trigger safety. A lipstick case? A mascara case? A pen, or a pencil maybe? That GD trigger doesn't know the difference from any of these common items and the operator's TRIGGER FINGER! A high probability ND in the making!

                  And how many times have we read about Bubba somewhere blowing off his d*ck or his nut sack while replacing his striker fired gun in some form of appendix carry? Holster or not, bubba always seems to manage to get something in front of that stoopid-azz safety trigger on his striker fired gun.

                  Striker fired gunz have their place, but in most cases, it is not a Safe Place!

                  However... I agree that YM is a TOTALLY annoying utube entity!

                    Do you understand the purpose of a trigger safety?

                      ^^^^Yrs I do.

                      Problem is, trigger safeties don't understand or identify trigger fingers exclusively.

                        The issue with striker fired guns is the same as any other. Look for cases of NDs with any type of firearm and you will find it. I don't find trigger safeties to be inherently dangerous. Any more so than any other mechanical safety. Excepting Taurus of course. Those things seem to have a mind of their own, some aren't drop safe, other like to go full auto.

                          Considering the staggering amount of gun-related content out there on YT, I don’t understand the value in railing against a particular channel instead of just watching something else. But for the record, I watched a few minutes of one of that guy’s videos and did not care for it either.
