The best job, people say, is doing what you love. A similar saying goes, "If you love what you do, you’ll never work a day in your life."
For decades, firearms aficionados have successfully found ways to combine their passions with profit. Some became manufacturers or gunsmiths, or opened retail gun shops. Some sought work as trail and hunting guides so they could spend the maximum amount of time armed and outdoors. Others turned to sharing their knowledge and experience for a variety of print publications, and still later, radio and television programs. For those who sought to expand their hobbies into full-time employment, it was nice work if they could get it.
That same time-honored tradition of "working at what you love" continued as the 20th century became the 21st, but in some different ways. Today, a new generation of firearm fans seeking knowledge or information is as likely to access a computer search engine as they are to tune in a broadcast program or pick up a print magazine (Editor's note: We think magazines are still pretty awesome), so it's logical that many of the current outdoor industry's most popular "media" personalities got their start online.
Like those who came before them, these social media mavens began as firearm fans before ever posting a blog or uploading a video. Far from killing the romance, this transition enabled them to do more of what they love and to bring their passions to the world. And while outsiders often erroneously perceive members of the traditional gun culture as stodgy and standoffish, these new ambassadors are welcoming and engaging to wide and diverse audiences.

Thanks! I am sure all freezers love these guys. I personally favor hickok45 but the forgotten firearms is great, too. It is a shame that YouTube has been weaponized by the Rats but there it is. I love what Hickok45 has done with Full30.com. A great way to retaliate. All freedom loving, independent folks need to walk away from the venues weaponized by the global socialists.
Why do the concealed carry classes teach the Jerry Miculek, style of shooting? It is like 14 steps to stand, pose, aim, pose again, twist your head around, arm circle, pose, fingers out...etc, etc? Takes all the fun out of it and I doubt I would ever have time in a real emergency situation to get through all the poses!
There’s an incredible amount of gun info at the TiborasaurusRex YouTube channel...especially for long distance (sniper) shooting.
That's a good question...especially when Jerry Miculek preaches just the opposite in this training video. He keeps it VERY simple. The guy can shoot.
(Skip to the 1:40 mark for his "simplicity" explanation...or just watch from the beginning for some incredible shooting.)
Straight from the horse's mouth...
Interesting, thank you.
