@Themandalorian I dont believe he has been in special forces...he is a reserve air force pilot.....read the thread off M4carbine I provided they can give you a more in depth review of how ridiculous this guy is

If you carefully read some of the comments on the thread linked, you'll understand that some of the negitive posts there totally reflects the type of person posting. for example one negitive was about when nutnfancy did the review on 1911's and the guy posting the negitive comment didn't want to believe that 1911's didn't carry as much "Fire Power" as most other handguns i.e. xd's/glocks/mp's But in Reality Nutnfancy's Right on the dot about it's 1911's firepower vs others. Any logical person would say a 13rds+1 of 45acp in the mag is better than 7 or 8 or 10rds+1 and with the 10rd+ mags it's that much more bulky.

"babbling on and on, ain't saying nothing"

Loved the vid where he gave the glock 17 the edge over the m&p 9 due to the fact the glock's standard magazine capacity is 19 compared to the m&p's 17 round capacity. That right there should tell you how seriously to take his vids.

Haha geez, reading that M4carbine forum thread, lot of hate there. I see it as much of a waste of time tearing into him than them watching his 40 minute videos on knives. He's a normal guy and I like watchin' most of his vids (I've been skipping ones that I don't relate to). Just one of the many reviewers on the web. If you don't like it, don't watch it.

But if you start reading around the M4carbine forum you will see that there is more experience from a technical and operational stand point then most forums. The forum has a overwhelmingly huge amount of good info backed up by facts not heresay or peoples opinions but by techinical data which just shows how much of a tool this guy is

I haven't seen every single vid of Nutn's but the most recent ones of the past months where I've been following he would mention that "I'm not the best shot", " Your mileage may vary", etc. to me shows a good attitude and not so much ego that I've heard about him.

I don't get why you still think this guy is a tool. He does neutral reviews, and he gives his opinion. He even states that everything he says is his own personal opinion, and different people may get different results. He knows that his statements aren't always fact and the best source of information around, and it doesn't seem like he makes it out to be that way either...

I don't see how he's a tool?

Wow, watched "Insurgents on the Hill" and some of his gun reviews and SHOT Show videos with my roommate... RIP to the brain cells killed. The guy is an uber-goober mall ninja and provides real information that 30 seconds of Googling could find you. Who the hell reviews a gun without firing and says it's accurate?? And John Fitzen was good for laughs though...

@DasBoost - you hit the nail on the head.....

That's because you're one of the people that looks at reviews just for a quick yes/no answer. That's fine and all if you only want to get the gist of a product's quality, but some people, like myself prefer plenty of elaboration prior to a rather pricey investment.

Quick and dirty might work for you, but for myself and many others, it won't fly.

But did you see the the sentence "who the hell reviews a gun without firing and says it's accurate" I guess a long elaborate explanation overshadows this tiny insignificant fact

Okay, some of the things he says are silly, but I can overlook those because he gives us a bunch of other great facts. I agree that accuracy can't be talked about without firing the gun first. That's just one thing though. In his tabletop reviews he also talks about the weight, dimensions, ergonomics, accessory availability, etc etc. He explains a lot of the technical facts and features, and breaks it down into simple words that a non gun-nut might be able to understand.

**Revised

really how about the review where he compared the Glock 17 to the M&P 9, he talked negatively on the M&P 9 because its mag capacity was only 17 rounds when the glock 17 standard mag count was 19 rounds.......I guess he has presented all the facts on his table top reviews


FYI: standard high capacity mag count for each of these weapons is 17 rounds.....

No, I look for a true review, not the same talking points repeated for some reason over and over (possibly that elaboration you refer to) and "how is it compared to a Glock". Glocks are good firearms and, while they are not for me, have a large following; however, Nutswinger's past the point of even fanboy and the blind d**k-riding gets old really quick...

The same thing you can get from more legitimate sources without the BS and in half the time.

All I'm saying is that NutnWorthwhile is redundant and a bad influence on those that are new to firearms/knives and a bad representative of gun-owners/2A supporters as a whole. In an era where education is key to disproving the ignorance and darkness that prevails in the media/others' view of gun owners, he is the last thing people need to see and attach the 'gun owner/nut' label to. Obviously, you find value in him and his views, and while I respect the "sheepdog" concept, I believe his views are somewhat flawed and credentials somewhat bloated. Nothing personal, but those are my feelings elaborated about him.

Please enlighten us as to where we can see the shining example of your contribution to the 2A / self protection/ personal liberty movement?

I don't understand how you can be so quick to tear down other people for whatever faults they may have. Why do you see him as a bad example of a 2A representative? He stresses personal responsibility and safe gun & knife ownership and handling. His channel is not one dimensional, he's got family, friends, and his dog involved. He's not perfect, but who is?

Look at it another way.

People have a very negative perception about the "dangerous things" Nutnfancy is trying to normalize by talking in depth about them in a way that's not too abrasive. It's more like sitting down with a friend and just hearing their thoughts about something. That is much easier for some people to relate to than others. I see his project more about changing the perception within society as it pertains to knives, guns and the preparedness mindset.

I was at dinner after the Shot Show and a friend of my cousin saw my knife and freaked out, it is a Kershaw Boa 1580ST. Nothing crazy, but she just couldn't get over how something that looked so deadly could be legal. That is the kind of perception we need to change. All the media hype about knives and hi-cap magazines and automatic weapons killing helpless Mexican orphans and the people (like us) that are into those things is endless.

I feel that Nutnfancy is working to mitigate the effect of mass media misrepresentation on everyday folks who never think about the same stuff we do. His channel may not be for the operators and heavily technical folks out there, but I don't think that's the audience he had in mind anyway. If we can't get behind those that are trying to do that we'll eventually lose the fight for our individual liberties. It is the ignorance and misunderstanding of people that politicians leverage against us to achieve their restrictive legislative goals.

If you don't like how he does things, do it yourself. You might see things differently if you put yourself out there like he has. I'm looking forward to your you tube debut.
