I enjoyed watching his videos and seeing his reviews until I watched his body armor review.

He is of the opinion that only LEO/MIL should have access to it so I have a really hard time watching his stuff now.


Do you have a link to that video? There are a million on his damn account

I didnt watch the whole thing but it seemed like he was just pointing out that he was mainly talking to leo/military as most people dont care for them.

Every view. This thread will probably give him more than minimum wage today. He is a "Youtube Partner"

Basically if you have videos that get a lot of views they will send you an offere and thing to sign. I think they place adds in your video then and thats how you get paid.

his review are ok at best.You gotta love a 30 min bench review on a pistol he's never shot before.

Most of his reviews could be summed up in about 5min, and would be more interesting then because I wouldn't have to watch him pull out his list 7 times to go over one aspect of it.

short sweet and too the point.

I watch him. I like how he's very systematic in his reviews. He also has some good philosophy videos. His videos are a little too lengthy at times. His 180 minute video on a bug-out bag was way too long.

Watch his Beretta ARX160 SHOT Show coverage. The title says Beretta is going to embarrass the ACR. Besides the title making no sense, the only thing embarrassed was himself and the Beretta rep trying to talk about the damn gun while he blabs his douche bag mouth about stupid shit the whole time. The fact that he will review a product he's never even used is hilarious.

He is a douche bag at times and he talks a lot but if you can look past that he is very thorough.

He has just under 60 million total view on youtube and 117,000 plus subscribers.  

He is very driven about gear, guns and knives that work well.  

He works hard to make that happen and it comes through in his videos.  

He does have ADD, will go off topic constantly and will point the camera in the completely different direction that the person talking when he gets interested in something else.  

I like hickok45 but he is just a different type of reviewer compared to nutnfancy.

I think nutn stands alone in the knife, gun and gear world for the thorough work and shear volume of videos he does.  He has almost 800 videos up.  

Either you love him or hate him....

Even though he can be a total tool with his whole, "sheepdog" thing and other tactical nonsense, I still think he gives some of the best firearm reviews out there. They're very in depth, and are consistent making it easy to compare different guns.

He gets people stoked and excited to own tactical guns and equipment allowing even your average Joe-Bob to morph into a Seal-Ranger spec-ops operator, thus stimulating the gun insdustry and inviting innovations that revolutionize combat, like the Magpul B.A.D. lever and the angled fore-grip.

Fancy Nutsack, the gay uncle no one likes to talk about at family reunions. The guy tries to pass himself off at various times a a .mil operator (ANG tanker pilot) and LEO (member of the South Jordan Neighborhood Watch; no arrest powers,etc), and he is single-handedly keeping the cheap-Chinese-faux-milgear industry in business.

His sister (Got that?  His sister) trolls the comments section on his videos, arguing with negative reviewers.

The fact anyone sees this guy as anything other than an elaborate, biting satire of the shooting community is disheartening.

Thanks for pointing that out. I have watched 10+ videos of his but after those 10 words I will completely disregard that asshole.

He says that " you need to profice credentials, they dont just sell to anybody, nor should they"

Of course he says that too. I'm pretty sure he needs it being in the air nation guard (or something like that)

I bet you if he wasnt in the air national guard( or whatever he is in) his attitude would be completly different

A lot of the people who bash him don't fully understand why they bash him either, they just jump on the band wagon. Mob mentality and all.







Some time back, he took pictures that were taken by an afrcommer and posted on arfcom and used them in one of his videos.



Arfcommer claimed rights to the pictures and asked nutenfancy not to use them.  Nutenfancy created an account here (or already had one, don't remember) and came into the thread about the pictures acting like a real douchnozzle about the whole thing and pissed a bunch of people off.



For that incident alone many here have a special ire towards him.





Others who seem to know about such things have called his LEO/MIL or wherever it is he claims to have a background into question.  I don't know enough about vetting loudmouths on the internet either way to pass judgment.

Which is why there are videos of him running that timed course with a 22 and a mini-14 and a ruger lcp  

Yes, his videos are long. Yes, he talks a lot. But as far as I can tell he really doesn't take himself too seriously. He gets people to pay attention and talk about guns, what's the harm in that?



Well I have a tendency for sarcasm bit still I think the hate people direct towards him would be better directed towards the idiots that make the Brady Campaign videos on youtube.  Those cowards never open their videos up to comments though.  I think they did once, and the youtube community tore them a new asshole.

I did see that KWA USA had a booth setup in the mil/leo area. If you are not familiar with them they make airsoft guns, so if airsoft companies have booths then airsoft people are going to get in.
