Love, really none. But...

Honest Outlaw seems to tell the truth.

Chadd Wright also seems honest about guns he doesn't like; although I haven't watched 3 of 7 in awhile.

Still like Hickock45 although it's obvious he's slowing down. He's entertaining but there have been enough "Part 2" vids that go back and praise a pistol he didn't like to make me wonder if he's getting paid.

The rest of them seem incompetent or on the manufacturer's dole. Don't even get me started on the safety problems many have....

Let's run with a gun next to the head.

I stopped watching Hickok45. I like his openings but the info harvest is low and getting lower. He is an honest good shot and he shows the real distance, something many TikTok marksmen incidentally forget.

Honest Outlaw is honest enough but he is obsessed with the top (any number) of (anything). Still has some useful info.

Sootch seems like a nice guy. He likes almost everything he shoots.

I used to look up Nutnfancy for any particular firearm, but he is a big talker and refuses to edit. With a thumb on the FF button you can learn good stuff though.

Paul Harrell RIP was a genuine article.

I still watch Hickock, Colion, AK Operators Union Local 47-74, Kentucky Ballistics, Banana Ballistics, Buffman Range, Honest Outlaw, James Reeves, TFB TV, Hop, Kinetic Consulting, good ol nutnfancy, sootch00, Jerry Miculek, Lena Miculek, Forgotten Weapons and probably several more. 110 SASS Actual got me watching because of his 1911 Resto Mod Build recently.

I agree with all these. I also like Guns and Gadgets, Guns and Gear, Brandon Herrera. Dare I say I also like Taran Butler.

Paul Harrel was the real deal. Vaya con Dios.

Andrew from The Chopping Block. Is he still doing videos? He was pretty good, good info, showed his work (like long division, LOL), kept it on track and gave a good summary.

Shooting the Bull guy was pretty good. At times I didn't agree with his take, and he would stop testing if the round didn't meet his conditions, like over penetration. He was consistent and gave a decent enough summary of results, so you could often make your own decisions.

Reno May is a good guy as well.

He is a Calfornia gun owner and he sticks his head out as a named plaintiff in a lot of 2A lawsuits filed by the California Rifle and Pistol Association, fighting all the ridiculous CA gun laws.

When it comes to defending 2A rights, he is the tip of the spear.

Tactical Hyve is a training company based in San Diego, owned by Myles Hyves, a competition shooter. They have ex Navy Seals as trainers.


I took several classes with them, force on force, and cheat codes of shooting.

Very intense, puts you on your toes, and you realize you may not be that good of a shooter and you may make big mistakes in real life situations.



Force on Force class I took last year

Lost interest after Harrell passed. I do look in on Johnny B and Tundra Tactical, both are good for a laugh. Bailed on most of the new breed who think they've reinvented the wheel. I'd rather watch ASP Trooper Byrd pit bad guys on the freeway.

I will add two, like one, I didn't see already mentioned. Ben Stoeger and Joel Park. Ben being controvertial I scan over. Two guys that shoot more ammo in a year than I likely will in my lifetime that regulary recommend barely modified guns instead of pushing the narrative on shooting better through gadgets. Thier videos on things like handgun fit and proper use of vision have made a huge difference in my personal shooting. Things I just never heard others explain that way.

As the warning goes about objects in your rear view mirror, same happens to targets
when the camera is behind the shooter. They are closer than they appear.
This is exploited by scores of low level YouTube warriors, including some popular names. They’ll show off the biceps, the gun, name the caliber, comment on the weather, full disclosure except naming the target distance. I don’t know if there is money in this or they just want to be admired by strangers.
