Ian has blurred parts of old videos where he's removing suppressors from guns.

From his Mk23 video (starts at 10:30):

He did that ages ago. There was a period at the beginning of 2023 where, for some reason, Youtube arbitrarily decided to not just de-monetize but outright remove vids showing suppressors being attached, along with striking the channels in question. Given YT has a 3 strikes and you're gone policy (and I believe FW actually got one at the time), Ian decided to be pro-active about covering his ass, even though YT relatively quickly reversed course on their decision.

I understand that guntubers won't switch over to something like Rumble or Odysee because all the attention is at YouTube. However, eventually YT is going to make running a firearms related channel untenable for anyone who isn't just posting videos for fun. YT keeps chipping away at firearms related videos.

It's akin to true crime channels having to aggressively censor not just images, but words. They bleep or blur out any mention of rape, sexual assault, suicide, etc. Otherwise, the video is unmonetizable. Some true crime channels have Patreon accounts where they post uncensored videos.

I don't think Patreon is a particularly good choice for firearms related stuff (given Patreon's past history with banning "far right" content creators), but some guntubers do have Patreon accounts. I can see why Garand Thumb, Brandon Herrera and others started up that Pepperbox thing. If firearms stuff eventually gets banned from YT, anyone who wants to keep watching those guys will have to get a Pepperbox subscription.

I'm also not sure about Rumble and Odysee's long-term survivability, but then again, if Bitchute can keep chugging along, maybe they will too.

TFBtv's foremost aged twink spent some more time with CZ going over a gun that only exists because I willed it into being by buying a P-07 with the intent of having the slide machined for a dot.

The optic cuts are a nice addition.
Always glad to see a good blaster get better.
That said I don't see anything here that makes me want to replace my existing 07-SD/09 pistols with these new ones.

I'm gonna give the one I just bought to my pops for his Christmas gift since I hadn't put down the money to have the slide worked on. I do like the changes and the name is cool to my juvenile brain. Would like to see them in two-tone. I always like the look of the OD and grey frames.

The 07 in wolf grey I lost in a boating accident was awesome.

As a CZ fanboy faggot, I have to agree with you. The optics cut and the trigger upgrade are nice but nothing game changing if you already have one and aren't planning to get it milled. That said I'll still end up getting one eventually.

I'm more interested in the rumors of a new gen P10 using the FCU/Chasis design like the 320 but hopefully unlike the 320 it will be good.

Arguably worse than TV requirements these days.
The issue with these folks is that the the IT sphere is pretty hostile to firearms in general. We're seeing that change slowly but surely as some sort of devil's pact has a slow realignment of "Sillicon Valley bros" realign with republicans somehow, but knowing clown world it'll just up the censorship on guns.
Ian can kinda get away with it cause he's not shooting the new videos for weapons for his series. Garand Thumb can go fellate Floyd's corpse for his stance on statues and muh racisim.

Also everyone's pet lolcow cuck went after the NFA in current day DEI lens. Something tells me he really wants a hot civil war from that civil war thing he keeps doing lmao.

How much was Brandon paid by SDI to suck their cock? What a disgrace.

Considering they're the permanent sponsor of his channel, to the point he doesn't even do ad reads for them anymore, just name-drops and moves on after a tortuous 10-second bit... I'd say a lot. In recurring installments.

More than enough to for him to go to bat for them. Out of all the guntubers to shill SDI that I'm aware of, Brandon is as perfect of an advertiser as they can get. He's learned how to gunsmith and produce his own weapons over the years, I know debatable as that is, and that is the exact kind of person SDI needs to shill them to the greater unaware and inspired guntuber audience.
