General GunTuber thread

So which guntubers are confirmed/suspected shills and who is g2g? I'd love some channel recommendations as well.
I know IV8888 is a shill. Paul Harrel for sure not a shill.
Anybody want to add?
To add some variety to the mix, AG Cast makes some good videos on 3d printed firearms coming from a beginners perspective. He recently did a video on ECMing barrels in his apartment.
 
So, with all the talk of the many guntubers and their nature as shills, what's the consensus for someone like Demolition Ranch? His videos aren't meant to be educational about firearms, they're just dumb fun. What do you guys all think of him?

Loud, dumb and goofy. I don't care for his content but as far as I'm concerned he's harmless. I give him a lot more credit for starting VetRanch.

I always thought he was obnoxious but I've always enjoyed his dumb videos of "lets see how many of X that Y bullet can go through" for mindless entertainment.

Some people call him a faggot for not being overtly pro-2A but Garand Thumb once said he saw his channel analytics and DR is huge with children.
I can't even be bothered to watch his videos, but if we consider the positive impact he has on promoting guns without being political, he might actually be doing God's work.
There was some non-troversy a few months ago due to a feud between the Rising S and Atlas Survival bunker companies. He explained it on his side channel.

His "it's not gonna leak!" explanation is kinda retarded but the fact that he turned down a free bunker and instead paid another company to do it should mean he's not a complete sellout.

I find him to be in the same realm as Baby Shark. The side of the internet where mostly children are.

Yes, I am aware of the charley-foxtrot with the previously announced publisher of my English-language book on automata, and yes, this situation is strongly displeased with me, to say the least. The publisher has been made aware of this.
Accordingly, the fate of the book hangs in the air at the moment. I can't wait for its release in the nearest future. I will let you know when and where it can be published
someone earlier wanted to know how the Azov thing would effect Ian's relationship with Max and here you go.

Any chance Ian had of doing anything in Russia is gone. He will never get into museums over there. He will never interview anyone from there.

Good.

E: I can understand Russians not wanting to do business with someone who knuckles under at the slightest pressure from the Twitter troon brigade.

Coming soon replaced with postponed. I guess it all depends on how effectively Ian can apologize to Max and the FSB in broken Russian.

A real shame, western AK fans like Brandon may all be thinly veiled homosexuals, but a lot of the Russian arms industry is super interesting.
 
Good.

it was not that he buckled under woke pressure, its that he did not immediately kowtow to Russia in the ukraine matter. Russians accept nothing less than complete subservience. especially with Ukraine.

Yep, called it. Even if this hadn't been a shitshow with Azov and the Swedish Guy, the Russkies would not let a book about the Ukrainian side of the Russian invasion of Ukraine be announced, much less published, without consequences.
 
I hate most of guntube because of the shilling. I'll watch the occasional Hickock video because of just that - you know he's bought, you know exactly what that means and you're just here to see grandpa have fun with guns.

Good picks all around. I'd add Hoplopfheil with the caveat that his videos are limited in scope and be prepared for autism. But he is 0% shill.
Hop sounds like a faggot who deserves to be shoved in a locker. His voice causes me pain.

His views on optics are pants on head retarded too

It's like those Chinese chimpouts anytime a westerner uses the word "Taiwan".

Guilty pleasure. It is fun watching random things get shot with random guns sometimes.
