When I first became interest in the gun community, I had very little knowledge on firearms. I began searching youtube videos for answers and my very first introduction of Barry was this one, "Revolver Etiquette" back in early 2012. His personality immediately made me an instant fan and I have been supporting you guys ever since. I have learned a lot from you Barry, and I'm sad to see you go. Rest in peace my friend, you will be missed by so many.

All it takes is to have five or less customers with only three or most of the time two employees and you are in a mess . Gun Stores that not have a " Range " are only interested in sales because the lack of the number of employees 🔫

Witnessed another "spin & flick" problem at my local shooting range. This dude came down with a brand new 625 to show off at the weekly training workout. Spun & flicked and simultaneously held his thumb on the hammer, during the flicking part he accidently strained the hammer slightly. Result; He bent the "hand" and damaged one of the 6 points on the "cylinder star", and you could see the "cylinder notch" had a clear dent that was not on the other six cylinder notches. It had to go back to the retailer and sent back to Wischo germany (european retailer) and they in turn sent it to S&W US. He got it back 14 months later, but this time around he did not "spin & flick" it. Spinning and flicking a revolver amongst anyone knowing anything is probably the equivalent of waving a "dummie-flag". (And that is putting it mildly!)

These older episodes with Barry in them were the best. The man had an unparalleled amount of knowledge on anything firearms related. Ever since his passing I find myself watching hickock45 more as I have more interest in learning about guns rather than seeing things blown up. Nothing personal towards Eric, this is still an awesome channel! Just saying in my humble opinion, Barry was Yoda to the firearms industry.

It's refreshing to see knowledgeable, useful advice on revolvers. I have an old S&W 36 that left the factory in 1966. Mine has the pinned barrel, firing pin in hammer, case hardened trigger and hammer, walnut checkered squared grips and the (then new) contoured cylinder release. Mine is hardly used as the top strap behind the forcing cone has very little wear. The bluing is still deep, rich and mirror like. I can see my reflection in it. Would never sell my model 36. Nice video, well done.

I did not shoot it often, maybe it works good now. thank you very much for sharing this Video.

Small pointer: If you are handling a unloaded S&W then don't index it by hand because this creates/supports the infamous long scratches along the cylinder notches. Best thing to do is after closing the cylinder is to cock the hammer and releasing it softly, thus letting the mechanism of the revolver index itself.

Not going to lie ... I've been around guns (and revolvers) all my life. I've always flipped the cylinder closed, just out of habit. Wasn't cowboying it ... just flipping it. Heck, I did it all the time to my wife's Airweight. Glad to see this Gun Gripe - I learned something! Thanks, Eric and Barry (Barry is teaching lessons from beyond...)!

I bought my first handgun, a revolver, a few weeks ago. I watched these videos before hand, and i found myself in an odd situation. I went to the range and had to explain revolver handling someone kept "cowboying" his revolver which irritated me >.

When I was buying my S&W 686 at the gun shop on Friday the guy at the register was spinning the cylinder then flipping it shut on my soon to be gun while waiting to call in my info... After a good stare he stopped lol

Aaron mann it was the only one they had and it was used and only $600 which is a great deal. If he broke anything their gunsmith fixes it for free but apon inspection its all good

4" which is the one I was looking to get. I got really lucky. Had to drop it off at the gun smith today because the hammer would drop before the cylinder would lock up but luckily since I brought it in within 30 days of buying it, their gun smith will fix it for free. :)

Thanks you. Proper handling and how to assess whether a used revolver has issues were both welcome presentations. Happy to say that my used Dan Wesson Model 15-2VH doesn't have any of these issues. Bought it in 1988 and really didn't know what to look for.

Always tilt a Smith forward when spinning so you don't grind and gall up the outer edge of the cylinder on the retainer nub. Colts are held forward on their own with a spring in the crane so you won't damage the cylinder like that.

I never knew about the Hammer push off test. Thank-you for showing that. I learned my lesson when I was 12 and my Father has a now almost 80 year old 22 Target pistol. Well I tried to do the the "Cowboy Fanning Fire" but it was a double action and I broke the Pistol that was in 1972. By sheer Miracle when my Father gave it to a very old Gunsmith about to retire he had the broken part that he dug around to find and fix it. There was no more parts for the pistol anymore. Now I treat all my weapons properly after that.

I own a complete set of Ruger Blackhawk magnums from .22 to .44. I cant even count the tens of thousands of rounds that have been thru that .44 between first my dad, and now me. You still cant get any push off on that hammer. Hammer has never ever been fanned. Solid as the day it was made. Treat your equipment right, it will last forever. RIP Barry, miss you old codger.

Every now and then I come back to watch Barry. I don’t like guns but I love Barry’s knowledge and enthusiasm. At the time I read a few police reports and seems Barry’s demise was accelerated by his wife or ex wife. Didn’t find anything about the problems with Moss...Barry was ‘let go’ a few months before he passed away. I don’t think he knew how popular he was and he could have earned a good living away from the internet at gun shows etc. You can see the way he carefully replaces the guns he loves them. RIP
