"Forgotten Weapons" on youtube
A friend turned me on to this channel.
Just type Forgotten Weapons into the youtube search box,,, Then be prepared to have several hours of your day go bye-bye. I know this is by no means a new thing,,, It's just that I had never seen it before and I like it. You might like it too. Aarond .

Forgotten Weapons makes me not get my school work done.
Just kidding. It's highly entertaining and the host is freaking awesome.

I've been a fan of that channel for a while now, it's one of my favorites on YouTube! A lot of good info about obscure weapons that I may have otherwise not even known about.

Ian, the host, is a consummate professional. Very well mannered and polite, his channel serves to provide historical and mechanical education concerning firearms. Given his involvement in high ticket gun auctions, whatever that involvement is, he has access to a plethora of constantly changing firearm stock, some of which is so rare it's never been seen before. I've also been watching TFB, or The Firearm Blog, as I've seen Ian hang out with those guys for videos. They are of the same ilk, and serve to educate the public on different platforms and share their thoughts on them. It's a nice change of pace from the sternly opinionated, high speed low drag operators populating much of the gun interest on Youtube.

I've recently developed an interest in military weapons and firearms of the last century as war rapidly progressed, and also come to accept that I will be a collector and spend lots of money acquiring or rebuilding them The FW channel gives me an opportunity to learn about many that I'll likely never have a chance to see or touch, let alone have for my own. Definitely enjoy the channel.

May ants crawl down your shirt, your milk turn sour, your cat get pregnant.
I spend enough time on a computer you have just doubled it. Not only does the man seem to know a great deal about the guns he's showing and firing, he takes the time to show the design features, disassembly and historical information on the guns. Aarondhgraham,,, I forgive you. One of the best gun related web videos I have seen on line. Saturday night, the wife at work, I watched at least 20. Thank you.

LOVE that channel - I'd say it's in my top 10 or 12 gun-related channels.
