I enjoy Hickock45 and Iraqveteran8888 the most, the rest of the channels I usually only watch when they are talking about a specific gun I am interested in. Nutnfancy, also very informative but as most people would agree. Long winded at times.

FPS Russia got raided by the feds, too. Apparently, someone told the feds that they were using illegal high explosives like C4, but it turned out to be 100% legal tannerite. I read that FPS Russia is currently filming new videos, which should be released soon.

Favorite firearms realated YouTube channels:

IraqVeteran8888
Sturmgewehre
Hickock45

my favorite is hickock45. very knowledgeable and informative. plus hes humble and has a sweet range at his house.

fpsrussia is just plain entertaining. i envy his "job"

military arms channel,nutnfancy, iraqveteran888 etc are all informative but kind of boring.

i just started watching tnoutdoors9's channel. he has a good camera so the hd video is outstanding

Most of the best are all mentioned

FPS Russia - entertaining
Nutnfancy - long videos
Iraqvet - love these guys
Hickock45

I'd add sootch00 he always closes with "Long live the republic"

22plinkster trick shooter, good with a bow too.

Brandon 401401 = Man - woman - guns = over 100 video's.

The Gun Wire = A web site with articles & videos etc., video section has 100's of gun video's from around the web.

There's another heavy set hillybilly looking guy. I will up date this. Got it = GunBlast.com


I don't sub to any channels, I don't like "Google" so when Youtube got bought by Google I never up dated my account.


I am surprised no one has mentioned Cory07ink = Cory & Erika.

LoneWolfUSMC. I believe I learned the most from him, even more than Hickok45. He has mail call Mondays which he answers user's questions and talks about lots of other subjects. He answered my questions on Twitter and Facebook too.

Of course, to handle Tissy, you have to have downed at least 3 triple Venti Mochas just before watching her!!

iraqveteran8888 - -great channel.  Tons of useful information.  Their Gun gripes series  just scratches the surface of what this channel provides.
hickok45 --  Tons of useful videos
Miculek.com -- That man shoots like I want to.  Accurate and very fast.   I've read he's the fastest.
colinnoir -- nuff said
22plinkster - Fun trick shooting
fpsrussia - a guilty pleasure

I can't stand nutnfancy.

He should change his name to "nutnuseful" or "nutnshort"

I can't stand nutnfancy.

I appreciate the nice comments and I had a great subscriber / viewer base.  The online media thing was definitely time consuming and my content was at the point that I wasn't able to keep up with the emails, messages, questions,  inquiries, etc...  Even though I did video's, I don't really follow "channels" in general but I do like video's from mostly professional shooters / trainers, such as Lamb, Proctor, Defoor, Miculek, Leatham, Haley and many others.  Didn't really follow the hobbiest channels too much, but I do know several of the guys named here that have channels.  Cory is a nice kid and one of my long time early subscribers and was always very polite and eager to learn and it is nice to see him develop.  I also know lonewolf USMC and Sturmgewere and like their content.  I pretty much kept apart from the "youtube channel people" and always declined gatherings or being on video for others.  Youtube and the "firearms training circuit" on the mainland is a unique thing.  People would see me with Travis Haley's original M4 rifle seen in the first Magpul DVD and they knew exactly who's rifle it was.  Since I never showed my face on video, it was always strange when people recognized me by my voice.  It was never negative but I found it a bit uncomfortable at times.  I also get along well with the ITS Tactical guys and they have asked to do a cooperative training / bio type of video if I ever decide to do it again.  Definitely check those guys out they are some squared away guys.  One is also a local boy gone mainland.   :)

Lol Agreed. I usually just watch it with on mute just to see the guns and gear in his videos but he is totally long-winded to say the least.
