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 watch FC45 once in awhile. He dose have some points and did learn some from him . Elvis I do not care for him for what some have stated on here .

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.

I like Hickok allot. He is to me just what he is a Shop Teacher like I had back in High School!!
Speaking to a Utuber I refuse to watch. Yankee Marshal! I dont even like saying that cause he might get views!! Hahaha.

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.
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.

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.
Hey youtubers! It's Shootingblanks00 here in the cold dead zone! Heyyyy
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.
