General GunTuber thread

I always had the impression that before Barry died, he went on a massive bender and disappeared either owing people loads of money or there was some kind of dishonesty involved. I can only have this impression because Eric said as much on his channel right after Barry died.

I don't know anybody else who knew Barry. I'm not secretly hanging around in Georgia. Eric must have publicly trashed his character right after he died.
Hell, if he knew his time was up due to whatever it was, why not? Doesn't change the fact that doing the opposite of "delete my browser history" is fucking horrendous especially since he's only doing it for views.

He had some misdemeanor charges and he lost his job and supposedly had a falling out with Eric over YouTube money iirc.

Apparently he also had some type of "family violence" act used on him years earlier but the link in the arfcom thread is dead.

Trench's PSA AK "died" the hinged dust cover broke, so he decided to make a video about how the AK as a platform sucks in general. He complains about the difference in cost for 556 versus x39 and then discounts 556 AKs because AKs weren't made for 556. He states all "the professionals" will tell you this but doesn't elaborate who these professionals are or what they are professionals in. Also something about magazines.

He also claims you need a gunsmith to check barrel concentricity, as well as he trained Ukrainians on how to use the AK in support of the war. Citation needed on that.

I could do a whole thing about Mr. you're fat and useless, you're hated train like it coping about MOA in regard to AR vs AK. Apparently the AK being a 2-4 MOA gun is a huge deal and more important than training.



He also had an opinion about the latest assassination attempt

Lisp grendade is now deleting any comment about Focus tripp after Focus dropped a diss track about him.
Did you archive this? I don't see it on his channel and he has a history of deleting shit.
 
Import restrictions have artificially made the AK less viable in the US than it once was.

I’d still rather run an AK than a M14, G3, FAL, and most bullpup rifles.

Maybe I should up the ante to Trench and challenge him to me with an AK vs him with an AR. The limitation being we have to use equivalent optics.

Is AK a worse option as a service rifle than pretty much any other 5.56 rifle made during the last 30 years?

Yes.

Is it still a functioning service rifle, that is able to fill all the requirements for a modern service rifle? Also yes.

It has shit ergonomics, it weights more than an AR, and you have to cludge things on to it to make it functional. But you can still have an optic, a laser and whatnot, the same capability as an AR-15.

There's a good reason everyone outside of Russia (and Vietnam and Norks I guess) are moving away from the platform. There are no advantages for an AK in this year. Stamped steel is no longer a thing in weapons manufacturing. We need the modularity that the AK didn't provide, and people using the rifles aren't Soviet peasants.

Vietnam has been acquiring Tavors for the past decade or so but they have been also getting Galil ACEs which are probably the best you can get in AK variants. I can see AKs falling out of favor, especially in the Middle East, due to the huge number of M-4s and M-16A4s we left behind in Afghanistan that have been popping up over the past few years. It's like how the Ford Ranger and Ford F-150 have supplanted the Toyota Hilux in parts of Middle East because of us leaving a ton there.

I used to own a PSA GF5 AK-47 in 7.62×39 that shot multiple 16 MOA groups with AAC “black tip” ammo out of a Ransom Rest, with witnesses at a public range. Worst firearm I have ever used to this day.

Sorry, no archive. I only noticed because someone responded to my comment on the video, and when I went to reply, the whole thread was gone. I used my wife’s account to leave a second message about Focus Tripps song to test my theory, and that was also promptly deleted.
 
I'm glad to see that I don't check the thread for a couple weeks and Trench just totally looses his shit. I still think that he would be absolute hell to deal with in real life, the guy doesn't seem to know the difference between fact and opinion and also constantly changes his mind on everything (hasn't he declared 11.5, 14.5, and 20" to all be the GOATed AR barrel lengthts in like the last two months?) He acts like the kind of guy who has multiple misdemeanor assault charges over shit like little-league sports games - I guess I'm just seeing his future after he gets done "training" Ukrainians and defiantly not abusing his authority as an MP.

I thought Barry and the Moss Pawn & Gun people had a falling out right before he died that they swept under the rug quickly to do a bunch of "RIP in peace to our boy Barry" shit and financialize his death? I remember the whole thing leaving a bad taste in my mouth and having always though Eric was a Shekel-Gruber ever since.
 
Sounds like the latest Trump attempted assassin is a fan of Karl's:
Allen regularly went to a shooting range to train with his firearms, and was a part of a group called “The Wide Awakes,” the sister said in the interview, according to the official.

His commie gun club is named after a Civil War-era abolitionist group (that ironically was affiliated with the Republican Party).

He also used some really cheap guns:
Records show that Allen purchased a Maverick 12 gauge shotgun in August 2025 and an Armscor Precision .38 semi-automatic pistol in October 2023.

A senior law enforcement official told NBC News those were the two weapons they recovered from Allen on Saturday night.

I refuse to believe he was an actual fan of Karl's. After all, he ran past those dudes in the hallway, he didn't chuck a kettlebell past them.
 
Armscore 38 revolver and the Maverick 88? literally the "hi I don't have much money and want to get into guns, what's cheap and useful" recommendation guns.

I've never heard of this faggot, but right at the start he can't fucking put his script BELOW the camera so he's not staring off screen looking weird while reading his unrehearsed bullshit? It makes him look crosseyed.

Why the fuck is his dust cover hinged? And this retard can't handle a fucking rivet? Or a god damned bolt? He wants to complain about AKs but his AK of choice is some retarded AK pistol with a bunch of useless shit bolted to it? Nevermind the fact that the dust cover doesn't even need to be there for the AK to function.

Crying about cost of ammo differences... why the fuck is he buying brass cased 7.62 for a damned AK pistol?

Regarding an AK in 5.56 "the round wasn't designed for the AK" well no fucking shit? If you're buying an AK you're either shooting 7.62 or 5.45. Apparently 5.45x39 just doesn't exist for this retard? Somehow having an AK in 5.56 means it can't be shorter? So go 5.45 you fuckwit. Also apparently brass cased 7.62x39 costs 30-60% more than brass cased 5.56, because he wants to run brass 7.62 for some fucking reason, but this is worth crying about repeatedly. Apparently this "massive" price difference in ammo means an AK owner won't shoot as much as an AR owner? Fuck, I know people that shoot .308 more often than fucking 5.56. Up your financial game and stop buying dumb flappy hinged AK bullshit maybe?

Back to crying about the one fucking rivet he could fix for $10 at harbor freight.

Says some gay shit about his WASR 10 costing "1000 bottlecaps" DOLLARS. What a fucking retard.

"then you have to get an optics mount and change the furniture if you so choose" You need a mount for a fucking AR unless it's integrated, and just don't choose to change the furniture then? That's not suddenly free on an AR.

Concentricity? WHAT?

Still crying about being poor and the cost of guns, compares some high end $2700 AK build to a fucking PSA AR?

Being able to swap uppers on an AR is "where you make your money for modularity" What fucking uppers are you swapping around? A .22lr? A bolt action .50bmg? Whines about patterns of AK.

Claims he shoots 1-2 MOA all day... bullshit. Maybe shooting off of a fucking table. Points out 2-4 is the government standard... yes it is. 2-4 at the best for most AKs... even if you're shooting 5MOA, out to 300 meters, that's still 15 inches. The standard is up to 4 for a MAN sized target center of mass at 300 meters. That means the 5MOA gun is as long as it's zeroed correctly will still hit the fucking target. What does the US army say about this in appendix E-22?
1777278328544.png

Oh wait, that's a 6MOA threshold with a 4MOA objective. Not 4 then 2, fucking 6 then 4. What the fuck are you doing that you need to have a 1MOA carbine from 100-300 meters? Specifically a(his words) "life or death situation" so not competitive shooting.

A better shooter with a 7.62x39 could be beat by a worse shooter with a 5.56... sure but what is this better or worse level of measurement? Power level being over or under 9000? Someone who actually shoots instead of crying about the cost of brass 7.62 and has been training for 20 years is going to outperform someone who picked up their AR in 5.56 yesterday. But so fucking what?

Claims that it's easier to become proficient swapping mags in an AK than an AR, but somehow you "lose" that with an AK? Talks about zeroing the irons on an AK, but then compares that to mounting an optic on an AR? These are not the same thing. I've also seen people fuck up mounting optics on an AR. Somehow it's more difficult to just use the optic mount that his WASR already has and insists you need a stupid hinged dust cover again? Stop with the fucking hinge. Just use the fucking side mount that's already there.

Apparently you need to go to an "expert" to check barrel concentricity to prevent baffle strikes again. But this is also a "man" who can't figure out a fucking rivet, or how to use an AK optic mount. Whines about an AK being 7-8 pounds... oh no an AR is 6-7! That pound is going to make all the difference in the world! Oh wait, his AR no longer weighs 6.5 pounds with all of that shit on it either. Apparently an AK needs to weigh 10 pounds now.

Whines about AKs not being reliable... well sure if you keep bolting on retarded shit. And no, not everything on an AR is "drop-in"

I don't even like the fucking AK platform. He ends this claiming the AK is an outdated dinosaur... when the fuck does he think the AR was created? The AR platform is old enough to be a grandparent... hell great grandparent at this point.

Looking at the rest of his channel. It's all fucking SHTF LARP nonsense. He's qualified to teach anyone how to lead a fucking platoon? He's over a decade late on the WROL garbage. Combat revolvers? SHTF lever actions? This is like a retarded millenial version of Nutnfancy.

Don’t worry, he takes the cosplay off one minute into the video after a staged Luigi Mangione scene.

The comment section are calling out Ian and pepperbox/leviathan tribe slop content. There’s quite a bit of bodybuilding talk about halfway through, and this guy weighs like 145 pounds, so I’m curious whether he can actually save guntube or if this is just the delusional ramblings and start of another guntuber TRT arc.

Why is this guy bouncing around like he desperately needs to piss? I'm also not seeing what you're talking about in the comments.

He's also running out of breath standing... well not still but bouncing around like he just snorted someone's adderall.

This is the top comment it shows me on youtube YMMV. I was honestly surprised even 20 people disliked leviathan tribe as much as I do.
wtf does that have to do with Ian? Unless there's some other Ian I'm not aware of? And one comment is "the comment section" calling out the marketing company?

edit: Also, lets be realistic. Guntube was full of shill after shill before leviathan group. Even Hickok45 constantly got free shit and loaners. Nutnfancy, Sootch, MAC, Mrgunsngear, YankeeMarshall, Colion Noir, IV8888, Demolition Ranch, GunWebsites, the list goes on and on.
