Personally think he's too much of a Glock fanboy for his own good and it bleeds over into some of his videos about handguns.

>holier than thou
>THAT'S WHAT I GET PAID TO DO

I didn't get that impression. I thought he was saying that just for the 'fuck yeah' effect but it came off kind of forced.

>>29848901
Anyone got the image of his promotional ad next to his actual picture? The one where they trimmed down his face and tanned him.

Larry Snickers is a joke.

he made a video on this explaining that being an sf soldier for as long as he was will take a toll on your body, i think the guy earned the right to let go of himself after nearly dying multiple times and serving

He's easily in the top 2% of shooters nationwide. The guy is also one of the most vetted firearm instructors out there and served in Delta for years. He's fat, who fucking cares? It means nothing as an instructor.

>>29849097

>former military means you're entitled to be a fat piece of shit
Larry, please. Being SOF then doesn't justify overeating now

I don't fault snickers for being fat, but I do fault him for being a pretentious douche. His videos are annoying too.

>>29849122
The man loves himself some burgers like any American. Since most Americans are fat, he has the right to be fat.

I've watched two of his videos and both were absolute trash.

>video title is something about busting long range shooting myths
>20-30 minute video of him just shooting some $20,000 rifle setup with almost no discussion
>video trying to prove that over lubrication is a myth
>completely misses the point of the concept, fires two rounds out of a pistol and thinks he's busted it despite multiple other channels showing it can cause issues after just a few mags

Also, fuck the fatty defence force. I'll concede working out is probably not something he can do anymore but he needs to learn to stop eating like he's still in Delta.

>>29848901
He seems like he knows what he's talking about he just let the fame get to his head. He needs to take a page from Chris Costa and learn how to chill the fuck out.

>>29849122
Do you not understand that when you do shit that destroys your body for a couple of decades you cant just go out for a jog at your leisure? Him being fat does not somehow render the information he puts out as invalid.

Wasn't there a big stink over something he did or said recently?

>>29850118
Oh I remember, it was some shit at Shot Show over the new Ruger pistol. Acted like a pretentious ass when the people at the Ruger booth didn't know who he was.

>>29849097
Hahaha fuck man, even if every joint in your god damn body is destroyed from rucking heavy shit all the time you can still put down the fork.

>>29850118
Fireclean, Rugr, etc.

Couldn't care any less desu.

>>29848901
He has an abrasive, outspoken, and confrontational personality.
Those are all personality traits that are pretty common amongst many/most people who have earned their way into and served in elite units, despite /k/'s idolization of the "strong silent type" they wish were true. The reality is that many guys in units like that aren't all that different, and often times actually are, the same kinds of jocks and what not you grew up with.

Despite all of that, and unlike someone such as, say, James Yeager, Snickers has the actual credentials to back up what he's saying, which tends to hurt feelings on /k/ and cause many/most to resort to ad hom.

Disregard his advice if you don't like it, or the products that he endorses, but I've yet to really see him stick his foot in his mouth like a lot of other people have.

I cut him some slack for being fat too. Even without injuries, a body that's used to constant physical training will go to shit once you stop doing it every day, regardless of diet. Just look at retired athletes, most of them turn into fatasses too.

His videos suck, though. They're all super short and have basically no content, just him spewing a few sentences of hype and then slow-mo shots of a bolt going back and forth.

Interesting he says not to ride the trigger reset back on an m16, m4s don't do that really threw me off at first
Never seen his channel before seems pretty good.

i wanted to go to that. couldn't make it though.

so i went to the event the year after at the store. don't have the pic on this computer.

I just watch his videos where he showcases weapons that no one else can get, let alone with the same production values.

Someone once told me that you could just a persons strength by the thickness of their wrist. He meant, if someone was dressed and maybe you couldn't tell how strong/fat they were that the best indication was to glance at wrists and see how beefy they were, it was a predictor.
Look at Pat's wrists. Also roids give you roid gut a lot of times and Pat does not have roid gut.

Maybe he's using idk but there's no real evidence that he is.

>>29852707
There is barely any muscle around the circumference of the wrist. Wrist size is mostly genetic and doesn't change much with exercise.

>i'm the expert on judging whether someone uses roids or not at a glance
Vegangains pls

>>29852707
It's actually HGH that gives the enlarged gut. Your typical roid just gives some extreme muscle definition, because it makes it grow and burns fat while decreasing the water in the muscles, so they look dry and defined. It's pretty much win-win.

Old Pat Mac didn't look like he was actively thinking about killing you, just casually thinking about it.

Judicious use of performance enhancing drugs can help you maintain your body under detrimental conditions which would otherwise destroy it.

Which means that roids can help preserve your joints, and maintain your muscles and tendons under repetitious hard use, as you would experience in an SOF unit.

I think in this situation it's just some nervousness about being on camera, he's talking fast, not breathing during a pause and then he ends up having to stop to take a deep breath, seen this from people who get nervous with "public speaking" a lot. When he's free-forming this doesn't happen.

I've known NCOs who never had to grow out of that loud, goof-ball junior enlisted guy phase when in a peer-group setting. Usually corresponded to how fast they picked up points, how fast they made rank, how fucking squared away they were in every other aspect of their life and career, and how high speed their MOS was.

When I was growing my beard out there would be times I chopped part off or whatever, would be a few weeks or months of it looking fucky growing out and stuff. Usually happened when I'd trim my stache cause I like it at a certain length like just long enough to bite on but not long enough to get in the way when I eat or drink really difficult to keep it just in the right spot and not cut off too much and make it look weird, or when I was evening up a line because I wanted more of a long goatee, then just let it all grow out for a while because fuck it I'll figure out what to do with it later I'm not trying to win any beauty competitions and go lift weights instead.

I've met one retired delta guy once briefly didn't speak to him mostly just listened to what he was saying.

Ruger doesn't have a large presence in military/LE special operations circles because they've never really pursued that market, certainly not the way Glock, HK, SIG et al. have. And lets not pretend those kinds of people are generally any more immune to gun culture memes, marketing bullshit or the desire to look cool than anyone else...just browsing the internet forums they hang out on will disabuse one of that notion very quickly. Ruger is still a second-rate "fudd" brand in the minds of many, not nearly sexy or tactical enough for "serious" use.

What. Former fat kid here. Sometimes pounds just creep up on. If you're use to be super physically active all the time going to a lower amount you still got to work off what you put on. It sounds like what he's saying is he makes an effort at it still but it really isn't the easiest thing to do for him.
I see a lot of people call some dudes fat, when they got a lot of muscle mass to start with the fat looks more exaggerated.

>>29863499
Plus its kind of weird how fat gets distributed, I've had my arms and legs striated pretty much but still see a bunch of fat on my abs. I guess it could pass for a six pack if I sagged my pants the right way, rolled up the legs a bit, dehydrated myself and stuff.
