    He may not make any money directly from YT, but he does use it as his platform to get paid by his followers (supporters?) through Patreon. In the first five minutes of the video he states that he bought the gun for $5k using a couple of months worth of Patreon dollars.

    Got to handle the Alien this week, customer (Chinese foreign national going to Penn State for his PhD) boughht one and did the transfer through me. Just a tad bit over $4300.00 total. HEAVY gun, looks ok, but the grip is going to tear up your hand if there is any amount of recoil. Those grips are AGGRESSIVE to say the least. Fit and finish was very good, nice fairly light trigger (forgot to measure it), slide racks very easily and is nice fit to the frame.

    But not a $4000 gun, sorry, it's just not. I can find handguns at 1/2 that price or less and get the same top notch fit, finish, operation, trigger.
