    Made a video on Snap Caps

    As I am getting back into YouTube I made a video on Snap Caps this time. I wanted you guys to check it out and give me feedback on what to improve on. Still getting used to being on camera haha.



    Also if you click on my channel I made a video on SlickGuns.com. I love that site and I wanted to share my experience with everyone.

    I hope you all like it. Please no mean comments. Just constructive comments.

    Thanks for all the feedback on my first video located in the handguns gallery. Much appreciated. Also send me some ideas on what type of videos to make. I might be able to do it. Gonna make some gear reviews in the coming weeks of my knife and range bag.

    Just want to remember to show your demo weapons are “safe and clear” in the beginning of the vids.
    Especially if you allow comments on your posts, there are some “safety nazis” that always seem to point that out, regardless of the vid content.

    What kind of vids are you looking to make, reviews or product demos, or fun vids?

    Good job!

      Your absolutely right. I usually do a safety check when I start to handle the firearm. I should put a disclaimer in the beginning .

      Well I am going to be putting some range videos up and I plan on doing more website demos. I only have 2 guns but I don't plan on putting my old .357 up there yet. I am going to start finding some self defense ammo and I was thinking of shooting a little of each popular round and give a reliability report. I am also a tech head so I may do reviews and how to's on my electronics such as my mac/pc stuff.

          Thanks Uber, I try my best and I hope I will get better. I am the same way when looking at a particular gun. I will watch many YouTube videos and range videos. Trouble is that I need to make more Range Vids

                You talk fast, making me tired.

                And stop putting your hand, fingers in front of the muzzle.

                  I kinda do talk fast. Sorry bout that. You know what? I just noticed after watching the video right now that my hand/fingers were in front of the muzzle. Gotta make sure I don't do that ever. Thanks for catching me on that.

                    I agree with the above posters. Perhaps script out what you intend to say and practice it a couple of time and speak slowly.

                    I was watching the vid and my wife quite literally LOL'd at 5:31 into the video when you said "come on little ba..."

                    They do make snap caps for lever guns (well at least for 30-30 which is what I am familiar with).

                    Overall good job and I applaud your effort.

                      Yea I need to practice before shooting. I have a tendency to just wing it. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesn't. Thanks for the advice and glad to make your wife LOL. Frustrating mags haha.

                        Aren't those the purple bullets that paralyze you? I heard Oakland gangbangers use those.

                            I have a question about when you are ejecting the snap caps and explaining the issues you have. If you rack the slide that slow ejecting a live round wont it do the same thing? The whole reason spent casings fly out the way the do is due to the slide moving at the speed it does when firing correct? I can't imagine that there is a big weight difference in a snap cap and spent brass.
