hickok45
does anyone else like to watch hickok45's channel on youtube? He does reviews on concealed carry type guns, shotguns, rifles, you name it. You will notice right away that hes a glock fan but he recognizes every manufacturer. I've been watching him for over a year and I really value his opinion on shooting and i think hes a great guy with an awesome place to live. If I were going to buy a new gun tomorrow i would look to see if he has a video of it first and i tell everyone else to do the same. I see questions on this forum all the time about this gun, that gun, this caliber, "yada yada yada". Its all on hickok45's youtube channel. Try it and you wont be dissapointed.

Re: hickok45
Seen a few of his vids also and follow him on YT. Really seems like a down to earth guy. Does great break-down and cleaning vids as well.
Has a great Halloween pumpkin carving vid too!

hickok45 great informative youtube channel... Im subscribed to him and watch most of his videos (I haven't seen the cowboy action ones, I know I might be missing some good stuff)...
For those that don't know this is the link http://www.youtube.com/hickok45" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
I really enjoy his videos ... he is one of the reasons I started looking into CHL and guns 2 years ago.
Now I just need to buy some good land and create a my own awesome range ...
No but in a serious note I'm even considering the whole IDPA or sports of shooting because of it also.. it looks fun!

Re: hickok45
I enjoy the part 2's the best - nothing liking blowing thru a lot of ammo in the name of "science". Great resource if you are doing research on a firearm.

Re: hickok45
Just to add, I watch hickok45 for trusted reviews about various topics including maintenence, reviews of new weapons, and strategy.
I watch FPSrussia to see him blow stuff up and a reminder in gun safety. He breaks the "four rules of gun safety" constantly, but does have a nice arsenal.

Re: hickok45
Hickok is great! He's my favorite on Youtube. Been watching him for about 2 years now and he just keeps getting better. Very knowledgable and down to earth, plus he's one of those guys I could listen to for hours. Speaking of, make sure you check out the "radio" shows he uploads on saturdays . They are just as great as his vids and are great for listening to while you get work done around the house.
He's got a style all of his own, and represents the shooting community in very positive light unlike some other jokers on YT.

Re: hickok45
Of all the youtube reviewers, Hickok45's the best. I can't get over how easy it is for him to take a small barrelled gun and hit that gong rather consistantly. And you couldn't ask for a cooler range setup. You gotta love the great breakdowns and comparisons between similar guns, along with lots of ammo down tube. I used to watch the guy nutnfancy some, but all he does is sit there and blab on and on. I really liked his recent info video on the different size S&W frame sizes, i learned a thing or two there. Just an all around fun guy to watch.

Re: hickok45
I love that guy! Him and nutnfancy are the lords of gun vids on youtube.
I think hickok's video of him shooting a 230yard steel gong target with a G26 is pretty outstanding.

Re: hickok45
Andy,
I can understand why nutnfancy might rub some people the wrong way, but with 13.5 million views and 142,000 subscribers he is undoubtedly one of the most influential gun guys on the tube. Hickok45 boasts an impressive 3.9 million views and 82,000 subscribers.
