    I have to jump forward in his videos too. Elvis just drones on and on. I prefer FC45.

    Ever notice that Elvis has a silver plated fortune cookie somewhere on his bench?

    There's much information to be gleaned from both, but I prefer FC45lc.

    I think both are decent for someone getting into casting. I took a little from FC and obtained a few pointers from Elvis on powder coating. As far as getting into the weeds on stuff this forum usually has enough replies that I can get most my questions answered. My lurker to post ratio is at least 200:1. Experimentation takes care of the rest.

    When I used to watch both fortune cookie beats Elvis hands-down. Elvis just doesn’t seem confident in what he does or at least the videos I watched him in. They’re both entertaining in their own rights.

    As regular people. "Elvis" is a personable man. FC wont give ya the time of day.

    FC dosent reply ta emails or correspondence. Friends living local reached out a few times. He is not as he seems in videos.

    Elvis on then other hand is approachable and replies. I have had a few email conversations and discovered we know some of the same folks.

    Even before knowing this FC never washed with me. Elvis is more my sort.

    I'm glad that they both are there, and bacon too but it think he left YT some time ago i may be wrong though. I rarely watch videos about anything firearm related anymore unless i'm looking for something specific. Been doing my own thing for some time now.

    This all depends on what you want from the Utube video. Information, entertainment, etc.

    Elvis just has some bad information at times. FC seemed to have decent information. But, I really don't watch either. They did not seem to be experienced enough in what they are doing. I want to learn from an experienced person in the field, not watch someone learn how to do something.

    Hickock I like as a reference. When considering a gun purchase I will go back over reviews of them from a few people. For pistols Hickock is one of them. He is not much for rifles/shotguns unless maybe for CQB type and function reliability.

    For most information videos I'd rather not see the person on screen. And most talk too much.

    Elvis is definitely more my speed. As far as FC, I have no problem believing that he is a different person off camera.

    I can't stand Yankee Marshal. I really do not understand how he has so many subscribers. He is a toolbox with no tools

    I've seen a few Elvis ammo vids, his introduction and half the time he looks at the camera. It's the smile on his face like he can't believe he's actually on YouTube and he's so happy about it.

    For some reason my favorite YouTube creators don't show their face rather what they are doing.

    Thats how I like a video & how I do mine. Ill stand in front of camera & talk to you occasionally. But by far more over the shoulder hands on up close are the videos I produce.

    FC responded several times to me via YouTube. I used to watch Elvis, but now am only subscribed to FC. He seems down to earth about most things.

    I always start watching FC45’s videos. Most of the time they are interesting. If it’s a subject I’m not interested in, I’ll go to something different.
