Got called a weirdo by Ben in a video, I’m absolutely killing it in life guys 😂

[@hostilegoat]

They're waiting for you Ben, in the drop test chamber

[@randalljeffs7272]

Hahaha

[@BarrowX]

"Manly" people be seething at confident Miata drivers.

[@Kh2456]

Nah Chads don’t have time to worry about you or your fruit mobile.

[@MitzvotTV]

People take offense at Miata drivers because they are anti-compensating. I still have my Miata and driving it is more enjoyable than driving Corvette’s that I work on. I’ll be convinced of that until I die

[@EDVERSiTY]

@@Kh2456 Imagine staking your masculinity on the car you drive.

[@Kh2456]

@@EDVERSiTY I don’t, sure as hell not driving a Miata though. Too tall and muscular, a problem you don’t have.

[@immikeurnot]

The Miata went on sale in 1989 as a 1990 model, and was 100% an homage to the British roadster. I'm a 2 times Miata owner, a several times Ruger Mark series (current Mk IV .22-45 owner), and agree with it being the Miata of the gun world.

[@jonathantaylor2584]

Nice shirt!

[@BHRxRACER]

is he a gamer too?

[@lance9150]

Miatas are fast af when you boost them and put some good tires on.

[@GetLeVeLed]

Ben, tell us about the Hellcat (and any other common guns - LCP Max, P365, jframe, etc). This ought to ruffle some feathers in the comments.

[@rurouniad]

Remoil .22 boys assemble!!!

[@qhenochi]

One of my first cars was an early 90s 5-speed Ford Probe and very much relate to the “fun to ream on without feeling unsafe” sentiment.

[@carlb86]

Miata is pretty damn practical for a few wheel to wheel racing series. We use two for endurance racing.

[@BA-oy9uo]

Love the shirt Ben

[@shaunt892]

Hell naw. The hellcats are the equivilent to a 28 percent interest charger.

[@mitcheloverton2817]

Love your shirt lol

[@MrAvidOutdoorsman]

I respect your opinion,, and would like to know why you think the hellcat is terrible?

[@mikethrehane8231]

Hahaha. Next video is about why SA Hellcat is "not a good gun".

[@edwardlimoges5709]

It was the answer to surpass all other answers!

[@mygoodsir539]

Nice shirt

[@jrdaparker]

What about the Ruger Mark II? I have one the stainless steel bull barrel and it’s probably my best looking gun. I use it for Steel challenge. Best thing was that it only cost $250

[@MrZola1234]

Hey Ben, Is there a right way to shoot faster? I hear you in the training videos talk about speeding up if their groups are really good to induce errors. Am I overthinking it, or is there a right way to to speed up?

[@lordhellfire153]

"You just wanna talk about your tac sport" Thank you. God that was cringey.

[@cham0nja92]

I must be a weirdo lol dailied Miata’s for somthing like 7-8 years as my only vehicle autox drift and drive it to construction sites every day haha

[@DavidMiller-ih4li]

Ben, talk to us about why the Hellcats are a garbage gun. I dont have much experience with it, but a student of mine has one and it has worked flawlessly. In fact, rounds that their Sig P365 gets light strikes with regularly, the hellcat eats it reliably. Way fewer malfunctions so far through that Hellcat than through the sig.

[@DrSQUIRRELBOY12]

Any range recommendations for when you are in WI? Am local to the EC area and looking for decent places to shoot. Wish there was more interest for classes up this way. Worth it to drive down to the Vortex facility down in southern WI?

[@joie0]

They probably shoulda just called it a MX-5. People somehow have an issue with the name “miata."

[@mako6084]

Don't drop the Miata dude !

[@n4d3m4n]

I love the black Mesa shirt! Great game! Any thought on reaction times and information processing at speed with people who play video games vs people who don't? I feel like when I'm gaming regularly I'm sharper mentally at speed then when I'm not.

[@HWG-wm8ld]

An excuse to justify playing video games…

[@n4d3m4n]

@@HWG-wm8ld sounds like you suck at playing video games. I'm sorry you miss out on a huge expression of art in our culture.

[@mist12345678910]

Better off doing a combat sport or playing vr games. Muscle memory+ faster quick thinking combat skills

[@n4d3m4n]

@@mist12345678910 I usually do a lot of dry fire for the muscle memory. I also add on fast paced FPS games, not for the realistic tactical muscle memory, but more for the hand eye coordination, fast twitch response, and decision making at speed.

[@mist12345678910]

@@n4d3m4n games that helped me with that would be hotline miami 1&2 and maybe doom 2016 on nightmare. Those 2 games caused me to have significant jumps in thinking skills in video games. As far as how it translates to irl decision making. I have no clue, but I would include maybe fighting games such as mortal kombat and Tekken in there. Recently I have been playing Ready or Not aswell. If you have a VR headset, I highly recommend tactical assault VR. Insanely fun and funny game with loads of ways to practice irl drills too. It won't help you with trigger discipline, but something is better than nothing

[@carlb86]

Miata demographic is the same as the Corvette. Old guys buying a weekend toy. There are exceptions to that rule, but overwhelming it's old guys.

[@leftyo9589]

the vette guys are the ones who are too fat to fit in a miata, yet think the car can get them chicks! LOL

[@immikeurnot]

Not quite the same demographic. Most Miatas sold with manual transmissions, and it's hard to find a Corvette without an automatic.

[@carlb86]

Many new miatas have autotragic sadly.

[@timgilfedder]

Accuracy International with a 24 inch barrel fits longways on the back shelf of a Miata no problem.

[@Mrgunsngear]

[@kodiak7964]

Ben why is the Springfield Hellcat not a good gun? Curious if you've seen any failures.

[@HWG-wm8ld]

It’s not a bad gun, it’s made for people that don’t shoot.

[@adamriehl8166]

Curious whats wrong with the springfield hellcat. I have a buddy that carries one. What should I do to talk him out it?

[@carlb86]

@@adamriehl8166 he'll survive

[@HWG-wm8ld]

He will be fine. It’s not a gun for people that shoot.

[@765para]

@@HWG-wm8ld I actually like the Hellcat quite a lot. It fits the IDPA BUG box, has very nice grip texture and the trigger and sights are also quite good, especially compared to the Glock alternatives in that category. Would I chose that gun in IPSC/USPSA to race against fullsize pistols? Definitely not. Does it work well against other BUG guns i competition? Sure!

[@Mako-sz4qr]

A girlfriend in high school many many many moons ago had a Miata “ rich family” she was a spoiled brat but man I had a good time with her driving me around with my surf board and aloha straps on that Miata. I did a lot of reloads with her in that cute lil car 😂

[@JC-gs3br]

Me, over here with my 07 pickup - "the hell y'all talking about?"

[@Jonathan906]

Ben! You don't like Hellcats? But I want to be validated 😁😁🤣🤣🤣

[@MsDasnake]

Anyone ever tell tou you look like Macgruber?

Miata is so fun.. anyone talking shit is prob under 30 lol

[@Christopher-pe6zj]

oh and prob drives a Buick their parents bought them hahaha

[@free2game]

I never got the point of putting an LS in a Miata. Why not just buy a corvette at that point.

[@ianmcmahon8589]

Miatas are smaller than the modern Corvettes and have better handling than the old Corvettes.

[@thedude54]

All the MacGruber’s in the comments.

[@WantedArgonianMale]

Everyone knows the Jeep Wrangler is the classic gay guy car

[@braydenfawcett7203]

Talk about canik

[@Bob-bf3cg]

Hear me out. Maybe HK MP5? Most would argue a 10.3” or 11.5” AR is more practical nowadays, but fun, reliability, handling, and cost of 9mm is unmatched. Like a Miata in that way.

[@OWSNubbles]

Ability to acquire one/price doesn't like up with the Miata though. Also weight, the MP5 is relatively heavy for what it is nowadays

[@user-rl5je6bu6n]

MP5 does not fit the analogy because of accessibility.

[@lance9150]

HK is like a land-rover or Jaguar. They are expensive but they are junk.

[@ShootingSportsandAccesso-sd9li]

Disagree. A Miata can teach you everything. Recoil control with a Mk iv? Mmmmm

[@MikeA817]

Cowboy action looks like daisy red rider larpers with no concept of actual marksmanship or modern firearm design

Hate to be the bearer of bad news Ben, but your channel selects for weirdos.
