I don't really care honestly, it is what it is. If it isn't Ian inadvertently driving up the prices then it's the bunch of gun hoarding retard collectors doing it. Ian's method is simply faster.
Yeah. No. That's a huge cop out. This pony tailed insufferable faggot does essentially what Classic Firearms did, except that it's somehow ok because of that retard Gun Jesus meme.
Dude, like I said; I don't really care. I'm old enough to remember good gun prices but I'm also young enough that I don't remember the time before gouging was the norm, from where I'm standing old guns are just plain too expensive and nothing's gonna change that until the market sufficiently turns and the people hoarding them in their collections either start selling or dying off en masse.
I find that unlikely. The entire point of an auction house is to find ways to jack up prices so the house's cut is also larger. Bringing a "celebrity" to advertise shit, and then said shit going up in price is the system working entirely as intended and no amount of "regulars" bitching about it will change the fact that the house is raking in the dough. Ian had worked with them for years, if that had been the issue he would have been dropped after the first or second auction he covered because the effect had been there from the start.
My own: he simply doesn't have the time to physically travel to those auctions & trawl through the entire catalog, due to his increase in globe-trotting, different content creation, etc. And/or he has prior obligations, so RIA decided to go with someone else.
That's the only place I've seen it mentioned, and I only saw it because I autistically loaded all the comments of the video (it was near the bottom). It's worth noting that Ian has gone to the recent Morphy's auction so he is still working with them and they are a rival to Rape Island Auction.
It's a real shame to, the Soviets/Russians came up with a lot of interesting and wacky shit that has little to no coverage in the Anglosphere.
You have to look a little further afield now. This content has a more boom than even Demo Ranch, but at least many of his videos are now enabled with auto-translate.
I don't really care much about it, honestly. Gave me an excuse to watch a bunch of Finnish Brutality videos.
Haven't paid attention to this guy in awhile. Looks like hes still oscillating between shooting guns, grenades,, mines, artillery, tanks etc., and handing out bread to elderly people. In one of his recent videos he goes over different ways people can clear mines from in front of their house or street.
At least he built the FCU from a stripped frame instead of buying a prebuilt one from SIG. That would have been an incredibly boring video.
I'll give him credit for pointing me in to the right place for my next p320 build, I like the look of their black FCUs, the golden ones that sig sells as stand alones are so ostentatious.
Oh, that's not too bad. Cultural practices and whatnot. I was hoping for degenerate shit.
He's still never done a video about the Deagle nor Glock. There's still plenty of guns he can access in the US that would make good videos such as the Sidewinder Submachine Gun.
He's made an enormous number of videos about various 1911/Hi-Power based pistols, but he has made barely any about Glocks or modern AR-15s. There's an enormous amount of variety for both. The AR-15 platform has a ton of weird and interesting things he hasn't covered like the Fightlite MCR, lever action lowers, Tromix .458 SOCOM (just for the history), AR based shotguns, the AR-57, all the Cali-compliant stuff, guns that look like a standard AR but with a weird operating system (there's a bunch), and the BRN-180.
Godammit. Why do skinny wypipo insist on shaving all over? It's so unsettling, like a naked mole rat or something. You cannot look masculine without some chest and ass hair.
