thays funny cause I'm pretty much the opposite of everything he said! Dont even own a black shirt tho not sure why he's knocking the XD's

The guy is kind of a tool. I like how he checked for a loaded chamber by pushing the muzzle end of the slide back with his finger. I don't get the trashing of the XD's either. FWIW I have over 3000 rounds through mine and 0 issues.

Same here close to 2000 rounds through my xdm and no issues.

Ditto: over 2k .40's through mine without a hiccup...using everything from Aguila to Hornady.

This guy is a total buttmunch.

you guys are taking this too serious. you are aware that this is satire right?

It's Caleb, definitely satire.

I can see how he's trying to mock things but it's not as funny as it is, or at least could have been.

I laughed at the double tap mag dumps at 3 yards. Some of it was pretty good. "And if you do have to get a 9mm, like a big old girl..."

 

Don't know how some of the people here aren't recognizing the sarcasm that's just flowing out of him during this video.

Well apparently you're not as awesome at the gun range as you think you are!

Agree with Recessed; someone else might have made this funny, but this guy failed.

I get that it is satire and he is trying to be funny. But IMHO if you are going to bash the firearm pick something that truly is crappy. Just my 2 cents.

As satire he failed IMHO, simply because it was too heavy handed and caustic. For satire to be successful it must leave some early doubt and be believable until such time that it hits you as satire. He comes across as elitist and bitter. Again just my opinion.

You guys that own XD's have to ligthen-up! This whole thing was sarcasm. At 19 seconds on the clock he started with tongue-N-cheek! Could have been a rubber band gun!

 

Using poor eye and ear protection, as well as a crappy holster is what the video was all about. That, and the black t-shirts when it's 100 degrees out.

 

What's sad is that some of the Nubes at the Range DO dress like that! To me it's not about what you look like clothes wise--it's what you do and how you do it when you make the gun bark!

Smokin' .50: I loved when he mentioned fireballs that go out 7ft.

 

Everybody else: Lighten up. He is intentionally heavy handed and caustic, he sums up the gun range and shooting sport ninjaisms quite well. Especially with the finger tip safety check.....we've all seen those types of clowns on the range.

I agree, It's perhaps better to look at it as a rant with an attempt at humor that strictly satire, however he does describe accurately some shooters I've seen.

Thanks for sharing. Now, can I have that 5 minutes of my life back?

A little over-exageration there? LOL!

 

I saw this vid as a way of smacking some of us "wannabe tacticool guys" across the head with a 2x4 so that they wake-up and use safe equipment! I took the entire vid as tongue-in-cheek.

 

I chuckle to myself when I see Nubes trying to look cool with the latest shirt or sun glasses instead of buying the proper safety equipment or an extra mag or belt pouch. I'd rather run someone in a pink t-shirt from a Susan G. Komen Run for the Cure than the hippest gun manufacturer. But that's just the way I think I suppose.....

 

Have a great day!

This guy's an idiot. I didn't make it past the 1st 30-seconds.

I love his black shirt.

So you telling me I was going to the range and doing everything wrong. What if I dont wear hats? could i maybe wear a visor? If I dont own a black t-shirt with logos, could i wear a gray one with multiple logos? I'm so confused... SMH

Lol, I must be the coolest person on the range. Just about all of my clothes are black, though that's more bcause colorblindness makes matching clothes hard...

 

I think I wore a Johnny Cash shirt last time I went shooting. It's pretty true though. I remember when I went with my friend, he told me not to look anyone else at the range in the eyes. He says they get all macho-like. Apparently that's why he doesn't go shooting as much anymore.

Where was this range...Compton?

You gotta love Caleb. This was funny.

I don't know, that's just what he said. He has a PA hunting license, so we went there to shoot for free, and make a road-trip out of the day. I've never seen that with shooters, but then again, I usually stick around Bob's little, and shot my .22. Of course, that's because I haven't had the time or cash to make joining a REAL range worthwhile...

This was hilarious. I don't know how anyone can think this is a serious video beyond 30 seconds.

 

For those that don't know, Caleb is a big IDPA guy, loves his Glocks, and if you follow his blog or watch The Power Factor show on youtube, you will quickly see it.
