General GunTuber thread

[Mikoyan]

I forgot to mention this: Recoil Magazine's editor, Iain Harrison, is the guy that did a torture test of the KP-15 with Sinistral and Karl. He is one of the principal investors in the KP-15's tooling for KE Arms and is a local mutual friend of at least Sinistral, so these guys are basically going to be unanimously taking a side on something if they do take one. I covered this back in this thread more thoroughly at the link below.

I was going to bring this up. I don't want to conspiracytard but them all coming out semi-together (in youtube comments?!) for this is interesting.

Fudd Busters has released a new This Week in Guns, with the beginning segment about some updates in the Auto Key Card case (which Fudd Busters was involved in as defense):

You can tell that the BS in this case is getting to him. At 6:40 he starts to call out other guntubers, but edits out his rant replacing it with AI images that were generated by prompts based on the guntubers names, they are probably pretty obvious but I can’t figure any of them out.

I think one of them is Four Boxes Diner. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCryaem-nXjC27Yci0xTNfhQ
The other one looks like an Anime Attorney? Armed Scholar? Armed Attorney? https://www.youtube.com/@ArmedScholar (Maybe?)
They are both other gun law channels.

Between this and RMA getting their flagship armor plates permanently kicked off the NIJ certifications, it's been a tough few weeks for companies that operate via Reddit marketing and  relationships with tacticool ecelebs.

Im sorry I've been gone lol, catching up

I'm not passionate about .5.7 for sure, it's just something I'd consider. The main reasons are capacity and better against soft armor with FMJ. My favorite round is 357 Sig more or less and it's too bad that wasn't more successful. 9mm +P, .45, 357 Sig are all fairly close imo.

I think a 5.7 full size like the M&P with over 20 rounds ready would be a good home defense pistol.

I've only held an FN 5/7 and it was alright I guess. Too big for me to carry. Anything bigger than G19/P229 is too big to me. I hear low recoil is another advantage, but I haven't fired one.

A M&P 5.7 with the rotating barrel just tickles my autism. That's a lot of holes in a punk trying to steal my shit in the middle of the night. Not very cost effective, but very cool. Recoil is around 30% lower than 9mm I've heard, so it's going to be a dart gun.

On a serious note, I'd also think a suppressed .45 like and FNX-45 would make a great home option. Maybe someday..

Ok, a FNX 45 with 15+ rounds of 45 would be a absolute blaster. A intruder would go down fast and hard. Personally looking at a M&P, 14 rounds, pretty close, like the styling.

Speaking of Ian doing sponsored videos, here's one shilling MAC 1950s for Old Western Scrounger:

Damn, I wanted one of those; but absolutely no chance now.

Dude, out of all 9mm guns, a Mac 1950 is definitely on the list, beaten to hell or not. Not the biggest 9mm fanboy, just very bland, but the old MAC is just too slick. At least they're in the U.S. now. Just gotta wait a few years to snag one

The Lead And Steel drama has mutated, now the accusation is that LP-1's are actually imported from Turkey instead of Hong Kong. Lead And Steel reply saying that the more likely thing is that the Hong Kong Company is acting as an OEM for the Turkish company but is selling an optic based on prototype LP-1 drawings that never went into production. I have to say this is retarded and L&S are obviously telling the truth. They also give some more details about their still in development Elcan competitor.

While the drama might be getting stupid, I'm not paying damn near 400 for anything based on turkshit.

You misunderstand the post, the LP-1 isn't turkshit, It's chinkshit and an earlier prototype version of it is being sold to Turks so that they can re-sell it as Turkshit.

Ah. In modern manufacturing parlance the Hongkoidials would be the ODM in that case. OEM implies 'my design you make'.

Here's another episode of "Brandon spends way too much time, money and effort into building an upscaled AK":

Wrong. Youtube was suggesting his videos whenever I watched a guntuber way before GT did any collaboration with him. Thinking back on it, it's a little strange that Youtube was pushing a gun channel with fewer than 10,000 subs.

It had everything to do with the Blood Diamond clone/tribute gun video and Executive Outcomes.

their still in development Elcan competitor.

Definitely a growth market.

Rare Admin just dropped as Admin/Aaron Visconti just did a collaboration with an IG guys Fire.Athlete (a firefighter IG) and Whats.Good.Media (Paramedic IG guy) for their IG pages. Admin is in his cop uniform dealing with the firefighter Fire.Athlete and his desire to touch Admin's gun in total deadpan/straight man mode in a spoof of the eternal rivalry between firefighters and cop and firefighter/cop vs paramedics.

TL;DR new video platform for educational historical firearms content, eight total channels participating at the moment but open for more creators who produce "high quality well researched content", $10/mo subscription fee with no adverts, intended to be a YouTube alternative that doesn't arbitrarily censor your content.

https://www.weaponsandwar.tv/

Launching with Android/Apple apps, Android TV/Apple TV apps, Roku, and native web streaming. Seems reasonably thought out. Ian specifically covers the subscription fee choice in the video, it means they don't have to deal with advertiser bullshit to keep themselves open. Mentions gunsmithing/handloading as content he'd like to put on the platform, which YouTube doesn't tolerate.

 

[Bogliacci]

I don't wanna sound rash but the first thing that popped into my mind watching that was "gay"

I guess floatplane and utreon never panned out so Ian decided to just build his own.

 

[CyrusHowler]

I used the promo code to sign up. Thought 6 bucks was worth it to check it out. Looks like a pretty clean and nice streaming service. Some of them are super confusing.

Man, it sure would suck if you were a once loved and well-recognized firearms-focused YouTube channel (who's been frustrated by YouTube's increasingly schizo rules on firearms content), and you weren't able to get in on the ground floor on this because you decided to be a giant gay baby and burn all of your bridges.

Karl is going to use pornhub to own the Chuds again.

Jokes on Karl; unless you are handsome and doing a daddy dom/ASMR gimmick like Admin, complete with dom mask and gloves and roleplay bits, no one on Pornhub's going to jerk off to his videos.

Whats stopping pornhub from just deleting their vids as well

Historically it was because pornhub would tolerate anything, after they were forced to purge all their child porn, I imagine they actually moderate now.
