When will you people realize that being tactical is a way of life?? You think I wake up everyday saying to myself "I am going to try and look tactical today"? NO! I wake up tactical, I sleep tactical, I eat tactical, I breathe tactical. I radiate an aura of tactical everywhere I go. All the chicks want to bang me because of how tactically-manly I look. I make all the dudes gay and want to blow me(out of respect) because of how operator I am. I shop exclusively at 5.11 and Oakley. In the kitchen I have MOLLE on my apron so I can tactically prepare all of my tactical meals. This feeds my muscles the tactical nutrients needed to do operator things like C-Clamp and Isosceles. At the office I tactically reload the staplers because if I do not then it will not function properly and without my stapler I am useless, without me my stapler is useless. You have offended the Haley-Costa-Zero-Funker gods! A tactical pox on thee!

Good points here. I once showed up for a tactical carbine class with a stock milspec Sig M400 with iron sights and a peep on the carry handle. Guys laughed in my face when the saw it until they saw me out shoot their fussy, tarted up ARs. I wasn't the best shot, I wasn't the worst but I did out shoot a lot of red dots simply knowing my equipment and by putting shots on target. So I agree with Nutin about not being a tactical snob. Gear doen't make you a great shooter- lots of dedicated practice and knowing your equipment does.

Wearing camo is one of those things I've always done, not because I want to be "tactical," but because I'm a metal head. A black band shirt and camo shorts has always been the uniform for fans of metal. Another shooting buddy of mine said I try to look tactical, and I just laughed. There's nothing tactical about some skateboarding shoes, camo shorts, and a Behemoth tee, even if there's a Spyderco in my pocket and a G19 tucked in my waistband.

USAcarry.com did a great article on 3 guns for self defense. 1st priority Full to Mid sized double stack pistol. i.e. G19 or G17. 2nd priority Super concealable subcompact pistol. i.e. G43, G26, or S&W Shield. 3rd priority Long gun for home defense. i.e. AR15 or 12g or 20g I couldn't agree more with that mindset. Niche guns that serve a purpose. I'd only add to buy night sights for your pistols. Get two high quality holsters. Purchase a few extra mags. And your long gun should have a light and sling. That set up can be expensive. But if you can buy quality once, you'll be squared away for life. G19 $550 Holster $70 Night Sights $100 Mags $60 Shield $360 Holster $70 Mags $90 Night Sights $100 870 $350 Light $110 Sling $30 I think over time that's reasonable to acquire.

+nutnfancy I completely agree with you. I am lucky enough to have one friend that I met through chance who was a Navy Seal. He is well spoken, quiet, and seems to think things out more than the normal Joe. I had no clue at first he was a seal at all. IT was only through working with him for several months that I began to wonder what his background was. He was "perfectionist" but with a certain style of grit. We worked closely together on projects while I worked in that field. His used his hands in a way that was kind of interesting. If you ever saw someone like this you would understand. Kind of like my 104 year old great grandmother peeling potatos. Steady, seemingly without care, precise, and confident. I began to view him as someone who would be walking away from a city on fire. I finally asked what branch he was in. He simply smiled, and said "I am a Seal. Why do you ask?" You will never know unless you ask. You will never know in the first meeting of that person. But once you began to put things together and finally ask, you usually end up with some pretty interesting stories.

Closely related is when these same guys think a gun is the greatest thing since sliced bread and tout it as the only choice, but when you did a bit you find out they have not really experienced other firearms and have no basis for comparison. Sorry, just my little rant. That aside, thumbs up for a really good video, Sir.

GREAT video! I know several guys who are almost 100% "tactical" as you point out in this video and they are STINKO when it comes to performance. I smiled and laughed through most of the 45 minutes here as you are RIGHT ON! The person who is SERIOUS is usually incognito. The most effective at performance is a person that is just a crowd blend-in. I am glad you thus - long over due.

Great video. I play in a few different worlds - guns, motorcycles, hiking, camping, cooking, and beer brewing. Some of the attitudes you address are common in all of them. I call them gear snobs, and they seem to be prevalent in all of my hobbies. I've fallen victim to it myself, usually soon after entering a hobby. I think a lot of it is down to the desire to 'keep up with the Joneses', something made worse by the internet where we can present an idealized/perfected picture of ourselves. It seems like the folks who stick with a hobby for a long time grow out of it, although there will always be jerks.

How do you like the athletic shooter like colion noir
@gi70st8 жыл бұрын
He spends a bunch of time preaching to the choir. I don't pay attention to a lot of his content because its just feeding on his audience's sentiments for views. He tries too hard to be cool, way too hard. Trying to brand the "athletic shooter" thing is garbage. Up-sides, he can shoot and some of his content is good. He does post nice pictures of guns/gear and his reviews aren't bad. His work with the NRA is appreciated. Overall, I like him more than i dislike him. I'd say his biggest downfalls are that he's a try-hard and is arrogant. His biggest upsides are his creative use of metaphors and clear,concise language.

I find his predilection for hyperbole a detriment. I get it though he has two jobs working for the NRA. One is to be their token black guy to point to for CNN interviews and sell the image of well spoken safe responsible firearms owners to the general public at large. The second is to sell the image of "cool" within the firearms community and that's fine I'm not here to undermine that. The gun community needs his services. Just be aware of what you're being sold.

This one is doing my head in. Firing from a barricade lying on the ground (on your back) so that the rifle is being fired horizontally. I know the bullet is falling as soon as it leaves the barrel & it travels in an arc to the target but if you are firing sideways is there 2 forces to consider? Holding under to cancel out the elevated angle wrt the scope & holding above the intended point of impact for gravity? Can you help me Nutn? Where are you aiming to get hits on target when laying down on your side?

I've been a gun nerd since 2009 and your videos are the main reason I got into carrying everyday. As well as buying a rifle to "run and gun" with my friends. This video is spot on with the tactical trends and groups. for a guy like me the rifles, and tactical training classes are like Cosplay with guns. The percentage of me using these things is probably less than 3% but I try and pick up tactics and skills along the way.

Great video - a lot of truth... When I got out of the Navy I landed a job as a County Paramedic. On my first day on the job, the first thing my training officer said to me was, "eyes and ears open, mouth shut." I learned how to be a good Paramedic from that salty old bastard. That philosophy has carried me though life - and it definitely applies when at the range running carbine drills with like-minded friends. Don't tell me how bad ass you are; words are meaningless. Actions, not words.

Hey Nutin, let me ask this for the guy who wants a chest rig for just in case not tactical but practical. I like the chest mounted pistol that you advocate but what should the mag count be?

Hi, I'm Nutnfancy. I break all the molds. I'm different and unique. I'm so sick of everyone trying to be so tactical. Ignore the part of the video where I refer to the woods behind my house as my "area of operations." Ya know, the area of operations where I run those NON tactical shooting drills in full BDU with body armor. But yeah, anyways, I'm not tacticool at all. Now run along... I've got Glocks and Benchmades to review.

My personal philosophy is there are different kinds of tactical. In the field, in public, at home. Blending in every environment, not standing out too much while maintaining your person (beliefs, style, etc), always on the alert, calm collected and prepared to act in a time of necessity.

Getting burned out on these videos. Okay, we get it. You're anti tactical. You go against all the trends. Unlike all of us, you're not a sheep. You do realize you are public enemy #1 when it comes to being tacticool, right? You literally referred to the woods behind your house as your "area of operations" in this very video. You rate every single weapon you ever review on whether it's "go to war" capable. You run shooting drills with tactical weapons in full BDU with body armor. You should maybe stop worrying about what everyone else does. I'm not sure where you get this crap from. I see it the exact opposite. The vast majority of people are much quicker to call someone out for being too "tacticool" rather than not tactical enough. You're not going against the trend, because right now the trend is anti tactical. If your buddy shows up to the range with his new AR all tacked out, he's going to hear about it. I enjoy your videos, but stop being so dramatic and acting like you're just this go against the grain anti tactical guy. You got famous reviewing Sigs, Glocks, and Benchmade. You can't even pull out a Benchmade these days without being shamed or called a wanna be operator. Wake up, nutn.
