Agree..and Hickok45 altho he is pretty 'wordy'...I know he has his critics, but I like Paul Harrell’s videos. He’s a bit formulaic and he’s not a professional presenter, but I think he’s pieces are generally balanced and enjoyable.
I'm pretty much the same way, and truthfully, I don't pay much attention to the name of the name of the "You Tuber" who did the video review of a gun I'm interested in. Our soon to be son-in-law talks a lot about someone who calls himself "Hickock45" however, so maybe I'll look at a couple of his videos. The trouble is, our soon to be son-in-law is a good guy and I'm glad our daughter met him and fell in love with him, but he has entirely different tastes when it comes to guns and shooting than I do. So I might just start a "Hickock45" video, and click "Stop" in less than a minute.I usually just pick reviews of a gun I'm interested in and start watching several to see what I can glean from all the ramblings, hokey background music, biasied opinions, beards, operator wanta-be clothing, etc.
I’m pretty much with you. Hickcock 45 however in small doses. The man is outstanding in knowledge and a phenom shot he was however a middle school teacher and still has that delivery as if his audience are sixth graders.No specific order.

I used to watch him a lot, and sometimes still do, but I really dislike his "humor" based on sexual references. I'll leave it at that.

One of the things that I really dislike about some, not all, of these channels is their incessant hawking of related goods and/or sponsors. Stop trying to sell me coffee (Guns&Gadgets) or your favorite gun-related do-dad of the week on Amazon (ASP) or importer that gave you a free com-block pistol (Sootch), or O-Light branded lights (virtually all of the gun channels). I know I can (and do) just skip over the first 2-3 mins of their sales pitch, but it's just really tiring. I'm just about right to walk away from Facebook, which is far worse, for the same reason.
