He's a buffoon and goofball.   :rofl:  I watch his videos from time to time, but I tend to like video reviews where they actually shoot the gun as opposed to just yapping. 

He's also a Glock hater.  Not that I don't agree with some of what he says.  Just that he has a history of Glock hate. 

8)

If you watched the video you posted, you'll see he bought the Glock.  He has a sarcastic comedic method to his videos.  He throws out a flaming, argumentative comment, then proceeds to explain why what he said is wrong -- or at least not totally true.

His conclusion in that video:




You should probably watch this one, too...

Haha. Actually I didn’t watch that video before I posted. Maybe I was thinking about another guy. But that guy is still a buffoon and a goofball.

I still can’t find the guy I was thinking about. Can’t find any of his videos anymore. He had lots too.

My point was, he's not a Glock hater.  He's quite the opposite.  He likes to change out what he carries.  He open carries once a month to support 2A, and usually uses a revolver.  He's in love with wheel guns.  However, he sees the utility of a good semi, too.  He just bought a Sig P229 to install a set of Punisher grips a friend sent him, and he's been conceal carrying that recently.  He also bought a CZ Shadow 2 for his birthday last month.

He has a huge gun collection.  He probably has more hands-on experience with more gun models than most people doing reviews online.

Sometimes you have to watch his videos more than once to get what he says versus the textual comments he adds during editing.  He can be hard to follow when he's being snarky, but that's part of why many people like and follow him.  He's entertaining.

He does a live video blog twice a week.  I usually watch the YT video of the latest one when I need to take a nap!   :sleeping:   

Like any other online "gun expert,"  take what they say as input.  All knowledge is useful.  I kind of like his self-deprecating and off-color humor.  I can only take so many "unboxing" or "watch me shoot while I say nothing at all" videos when trying to gather information.

Just don't understand the Standard G5 Mags not working on the 19x, why would you do that...

Glock has a warehouse full of Gen4 mags to get rid of?   :wave:
