    Default Favorite Obscure Youtube Gun Channel?

    What's your favorite lesser-known youtube gun channel? I have the usual IV8888, hickok45, MAC, Mrgunsngear, sootch00 subscriptions but what are some channels you like to watch that don't have hundreds of thousands of subscribers? I like Chris Bartocci's videos a lot. He does a lot of really in depth rifle reviews and has some cool guns on his channel. On a completely unrelated note, he also reminds me of Barry Burton from Resident Evil.

    Who else is out there that's worth watching?

    That don't have "hundreds of thousands of subscribers" ?

    While I subscribed to a few that meet that description.
    I generally do not watch them on a regular basis; simply because they don't have a great amount of videos.
    Or they may have only had one video I liked; but I subscribed for that one video.

    Anyway; here's listing of gun; or somewhat gun related; channels:

    More than 100k subscribers:
    • TheYankeeMarshal
    • Active Self Protection,
    • hickok45
    • Miculek.com- The Leaders in Gun Control!


    Less than 100k subscribers (or subscriber numbers not displayed):
    • Lucky Gunner Ammo
    • PersonalDefenseNet
    • Practical Defense Systems
    • Mo Gyory
    • NRATV
    • SOTGHomeRoom
    • Josie Outlaw
    • Gun Owners of America
    • CountryBoyPrepper

    Guns gear and on target training.

    He is a trainer up in the New England area with a handicap. Very humble and a very knowledgeable guy.

    All that "tactical" bull shit that that's been being pushed and sold to the gun community for the last decade goes out the door with this guy.

    gunnut357mag has a lot of milsurp type stuff and reloading.

    The ammo channel used to be good but one day the guy pulled the plug and abandoned the channel with the vids still up.

    Machine gun mike is a good channel for full auto stuff but he doesn't post much anymore.

    InRange Tv is very good with a lot of interesting stuff.

    Alabama Arsenal is another excellent channel. Super high production quality and to the point videos on some of the cooler firearms that a lot of bigger channels don't cover.

    I've become pretty jaded with the whole YouTube firearms thing. I still watch Inrange TV, forgotten weapons, the late boyscout and TheYankeeMarshal weekly because they don't care about the money or call it like it is. All the other big ones like MAC, IV8888, and Mr Guns and Gear that I still have some respect for I still sub to but pick and choose based on what they are reviewing.

    I've found myself moving away from guys like Sootch who never have an opinion other then product x is great. They like to say that doing videos is a lot of work so why would they waste it on products they don't like. That's just code for I only do two types of reviews, the 1st on products I get for free that I wanted, the 2nd for companies who pay me.

    Century Arms single handily exposed how full of shit most of the mainstream channels are by paying everyone at once to shill for them year round. It's amazing how reliable and well made the RAS-47 is for so many paid YouTube business, but how many average consumers on YouTube have piles of shit where their AK should be. Or how the new TP9 SF Elite has weak ejection issues which leds to malfunctions that can be seen in all the big channel reviews yet is never addressed. Meanwhile a few small nobody channels (1776 or bust) went to bat with Century over the pistols they actually paid for and finally after a few months of major fuck ups and BS by Century they were finally were told the guns are bad from the factory and we're repaired or replaced.

    For AK reviews......Reports out to 5000 rounds for the different models. His torture testing is a little extreme but he has find some major problems and defective parts for some manufacturers.

    Rob is a great resource when your shopping for an AK or if you eat, breath, and die all things AK. I've cut back watching his channel simply due to repetition on a single rifle platform that I'm no longer in the market for having several. His integrity is there, he always tells it like it is, and he is a true American patriot who currently serves our country.
