Well, get a stock mag and its a whopping one more round, and tried to say the whopping 3 ounce weight difference will be a pain.....and says the 5-7 has ultimate firepower over glock due to more bullets, but the 5-7 hits like a 22 mag, and id rather have 9 over that. Firepower isnt how many bullets you have, its how effective those rounds are.I applaud him as one of the first to come out taurus judge bashing.

But please nutn, stop ruining guns with duracoat.

His reviews do show how reliable it is given conditions, has several shooters firing in cousrses getting a feel, he shows accessories, field strip, very thourough, He can just go off on a rant sometimes though.
Yep. You can either have a lot of smaller bullets or a few large ones.

The duracoat deal. I guess he does to "blend in" with his surroundings. But it's actually kind of pointless to me.

But i dont like the fact that:
he is obsessed with weight
capacity
and his videos are sometimes lengthy (but that's okay)
Weight is only going to be a big deal as he makes it out to be if you do a lot of "running and gunning." Or concealed carry. I, like most people, the gun goes from the range bag, it's shot, then goes back into the bag. While it would be cool to set up something like he's got. That would take up a lot of room. I think he shoots on state property. Plus different regions also play a factor.

Nutnfancy: Very thorough, well done, but long winded and cares too much about weight and a few other silly things, also too into "tactical" guns, does not cover hunting type firearms.

Hickock45: Amusing to watch, he is a EXCELLENT shot, hitting 80 yard targets with a scandium snubby and 200+ yard pistol shots. Not thourough on the guns though, he for entertainment, not learning.\

RugerSix: I really like his reviews, short, to the point, gives impressions on the gun, interested in recreation more than being tactical. Does reviews on obscure guns and cool milsurps. Seems like a very good guy too, the type of person id hang out with.

Gunblast: Horrible bias, you can tell their sponsored, any ruger, taurus or charter arms gun gets a glowing review automatically, not objective and has low integrity.
I'm subscribed to Hickock45 and RugerSix. Aren't Gunblast vids like 2 min long? He shows a quick shooting section and then says he likes it.

I like Pete at theArmoryChannel more than most of them out there. Even though he only keeps a gun for about six months max.

humans4targets2 is good, GunWebsites has done a lot of reviews. Check out Iraqveteran8888 if you haven't already.
