I am given to understand a great lot of you FReepers followed this youtube channel, so here is the latest on the questionable state of affairs in the matter.

Stay away from 'google plus'.

Plus, Donate to FreeRepublic! It's worth it. :)

Middle Tennessee looks a lot like Pinal County AZ in the video. Did they have a drought and misplace some hills?

I don’t make any firearms decisions without first going to YouTube and seeing what Hickok45 has to say about it. And I doubt if I’m the only one.

I completely agree. He needs to script (storyboard) his videos before making them then edit the film to 10-15 minutes. Same with “nutnfancy.” I don’t have time to painstakingly watch hours and hours of video to get to the point. They need to make a short entertaining demo and a list of the salient points in the description of the video.

So summary that can’t watch video: his videos were cross-posting on Google+, which has very strict/unfriendly terms of service for firearm-related things. The videos were being flagged there, and his account kept getting suspended. He has nownremoved the videos from Google+.

This was a good reminder to delete my Google+ account. Never wanted one anyway.

I love that guy’s channel, I’m a sub, and he’s great.

His channel problems got me really mad, and I even called Google about it (my friend works there and gave me a phone number).

I was and am still convince the reasons were political, though it seems they have convinced Hickok45 about some technical mumbo-jumbo.

GLAD TO HAVE HIM BACK..!!

agree 10,000% about Nutnfancy:

I don’t watch him anymore for the very reason you cited.

VERY VERY low signal to noise ratio.

Amazing he gets so many hits —lots of suckers out there.

His account, maybe. But I’ve never heard anyone diss Hickock45 before, especially for being “boring,” LOL...

LOL

Google maps says that he's currently standing 3.9 miles SSE of you. And according to Street View, he's facing West, wearing green parka and sitting in a white SUV. I can't make out the license plate numbers, but it's a South Dakota plate.

Good enough?

He’s the one that sealed the deal for me on the last pistol I bought. A Romanian Tokarev.
