Is there a good youtube channel for learning more about guns?

>>34839336
You mean *besides* Hickok45 and ForgottenWeapons?

>>34839336
Honestly, Wikipedia is a pretty good resource. IMFDB is great too. I don't really know any gun channels you haven't already heard of (hickok45, ponytail faggot, etc.)

I just sort of picked things up hanging around /k/

Forgotten weapons obviously
Hickok for basic shit, not very in depth but very accessible
Chris Bartocci, if you ignore literally all content not related to AR15s
Mishaco for FALs
C&Rsenal for old old stuff
Thats about it. Youtube is great for boom and flash, but shit for academic content.

Forgotten weapons for history and how they work
Paul Harrell for practical use, and explanations. He's got a good video about ammo designation.

Forgotten Weapons and Hickok45....I think we all can agree to this.

BritishMuzzleLoaders is an excellent source for anything regarding British militaria.
C&Rsenal has a dizzying amount of information on most of the rifles and handguns used in WW1.

I don't tell people to NOT watch hickok but I got tired of his video style after about a month so I unsubbed and completely abandoned him.

I subscribe to:

forgotten weapons (watch every video)
in range (watch some, but I just don't care about the competitions they go to)
IV8888 (watch some)
MAC (watch most)
AKOU (watch all)
Lifesizepotato (watch all, but is either a dead channel or on hiatus)
The Ammo Channel (very much a dead channel but I'll never give up hope that he comes back)

this DESU. hes great if you're first getting into firearms, but if you're in deep then there's really nothing of value to be had from his videos apart from the whole surrogate grandad meme

I figured I'd get massive amounts of hate for that statement.

>>34839336
I doubt you'll find much in the way of a centralised depository containing all that information.

scan the popular channels for specific things, widen the net if they don't have what you need (but take everything with a grain of salt, you do know how youtubers make an income). Get the do/k/ument for a bunch of manuals and how-to's. download World of Guns for that old school interactive encyclopedia feeling.

Misha is a great fellow. I only subscribed to him a few months ago and I've been real happy with his content.
>mfw that guy in the comments asked him why he wears sunglasses.
he though misha was trying to be cool or something.

>>34839462
that channel was great when I was deciding on my first pistol, now I watch him shoot for about 5 minutes and listen to what he thinks for about 3 minutes at the table and close it. He's a pretty decent litmus test for if a firearm has serious problems or not and he won't lie about it. He shit all over the Bond Arms Texan they sent him with his name engraved on it.

This is a good old site for indexing and explaining the development of firearms by some Russian guy. He explains the development histories of the ones he likes.

>the white cane in the intro
Yeah. My friend is going blind and he owned a gun shop for a few years. He still shoots but when he holds up pistols with fiber sights he says he can't even tell what color they are. He has a really bright green laser on his Glock that seems to help him.

This is the basic. IMFDB initially just seems for identification, but there's a lot of comprehensive, in-depth information and documentation that's hard to find gathered anywhere else. Plus, it does help develop autistic-level firearms identification skills, which is fun.

But those are the baseline. There's a couple other channels listed around here that are good. I forget the channel name, but there's one where these guys load tons of custom shotgun shells and test them, which is informative in a experimentation "I didn't know you could fire that out of a shotgun" way.

Steve1989MREInfo isn't necessarily firearms, but it's within the board's general interest and is informative. As you can guess from the title, it's about old and foreign military rations and their history.

Paul Harrel

He has some excellent videos on terms, differences between various ammunition/firearms, home defense and all kinds of helpful stuff.

I like his sense of humor. Incredibly dry.

Hickok45 is alright. But 80% of the time he needs to shut up and shoot.
