Don't let the commenters get under your skin.
Anyone can be negative if they choose! As said well above!!! Stay Positive & Be Safe!!!

I would have retaken the video.I reviewed the video in question and all I see is my fingers briefly going in front of the muzzles while handling the pistols. My fingers may also have gone inside of the trigger guard a couple of times
Who would handle a firearm that wasn't cleared??
I did a video earlier this summer regarding the recoil of various carry pistols.
I just got a couple of comments from viewers stating that I violated all sorts of gun safety rules and "are an accident waiting to happen".
I reviewed the video in question and all I see is my fingers briefly going in front of the muzzles while handling the pistols. My fingers may also have gone inside of the trigger guard a couple of times.
I was seriously offended by the accusations. I have served in three branches of the military, been handling firearms since I was 10 years old, have had a CCW for 19 years, and have never once had a negligent discharge.
I consider myself a very safe person in regards to gun handling and am a bit paranoid when it comes to carrying a loaded weapon.
In the video, before filming started, all firearms were cleared. Repeatedly.
I did not point them at myself or anyone else. I was in the middle of nowhere and alone. None of the weapons left my sight from when they were cleared and when I handled them.
Are the comments simply the result of internet trolls doing what they do? Or did I display unsafe gun handling worthy of derision and correction?
UNLESS, of course, you derive great entertainment by poking the trolls back to watch them blow up! (Which I've been known to do...because trolling trolls is fun.)
"Wow , i am so interested in hearing why you know that X is the best caliber ever and waste 20 minutes of my life arguing something that ultimately just comes down to personal preference. Your opinion, I mean "your wisdom" has totally enlightened me and I will now sell everything I have that isn't of that caliber"
And that is the story of why Bubba converted all his milsurp rifles into .30 Gibbs, including his M1 Garand which now has a bent operating rod.
You should make a spoof video dedicated to "Those concerned" by clearing the pistol and showing/doing all the things you SHOULDN'T DO with a pistol ...Thank you for all of the great responses! I will make sure that in any future videos, that I will clear the pistol/rifle on camera and/or state that it has been cleared.

Just two?so two in the same video took me by surprise.
Such as safe gun handling.here seems to always be someone who has an axe to grind.
so did I.I felt that your gun handling was too casual for the sake of a video.
