He doesn't seem like the type that would deliberately mislead people. You have to understand that anybody making claims on a subjective topic is expressing only an opinion and how they feel about it.

Other than trying to float some grampa joke, there's no real reason for him to lie.

he likes to smoke pot so he's probably pretty chill and level headed ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

He hasn't really lied in his videos so far so why not trust him? He has to shill for his sponsors. That's about it.

he's like 8'6" or something, its pretty much the reason he thinks Glocks are the best. but he usually states that hes a giant so human sized guns dont feel right sometimes.

He's pretty reliable for soon to be gun purchases. His videos are shorter than nutnfancy and way less autistic, longer than s00tch and far less of an ND'ing retard. I wouldn't even say he shills like any of the other anons say here. Federal gives him boolets for videos, I mean boolets ain't cheap. Buds let's him use their guns so he can have new material.
He never says that buds is God tier or that federal is what you should be shooting, it's just how he maintains his channel.
He's also pretty unbiased, I've seen some videos where he used to dislike a certain gun, spends some time with it and ends up liking it. Lately all you see is "5 most overrated", "is this the worst handgun ever?". For the most part the gun channels are going the way of gaming channels

>>33315771

read the rest of the post shithead. guys from all over the country I know from the old unit order exclusively from them thanks to their shipping/pricing/selection/customer service.

The only guys I know that have hard a hard time with them are complete idiots that screw up their own orders and blame the shop, screw up their payments and blame the shop, ordered the wrong things and get pissed when they don't get an instant refund, you know, dumb shit like that.


The thing I found working customer service back in highschool is, people are fucking dumb. they screw things up and blame you, the store, the company, and you just kiss their ass and say sorry, and they never realize that THEY are the fuck ups. only difference is Bud's has no problem telling you you're a dumbass, and people don't like hearing that. they're used to blaming the kid behind the counter and getting things fixed by the manager without having to admit any fault.

He doesn't really make claims, other than how much he likes or doesn't like something. Usually not much as far as material claims. He is constantly deferring his knowledge. " alot of you guys know more about this *whatever* than I do so I'll just leave that alone" type stuff. Unlike many Internet gun spurgelords who pontificate as if they are the fucking pope of guns.

>shilling

This, exactly.

You can trust Hickok, but just realize his claims are few and far between. The most concrete thing he ever says is "this is a fun little gun," in which case you can be 100% sure that it is, indeed, a fun little gun.

Occasionally he'll remark on craftsmanship, and he's generally spot-on. Sometimes he'll remark on ergonomics, in which case that's just an opinion of a guy with huge hands.

I don't really watch his videos to help me decide whether I'm going to buy a particular firearm... I watch them after I buy a gun while reassuring myself, "See? Hickok says it's fine, and he's having a great time with it!"
