Does anyone else on /k/ keep up with The Nutnfancy? Just saw his vid (probably old) on schooling kids in shooting, seemed to be pretty informative. I wouldn't be surprised if he was a /k/ommando.

Basic summary of nutnfancy

Yes, he is in the military, but he is a tanker pilot in the airforce, hardly the SUPEROPERATORSHEEPDOGWRISTARMOR
he acts like he is

He can take five minutes of information and turn it into a twelve hour documentary

In the beginning he did offer some good reviews, and still does. However, it is lost in a sea of bullshit powered by his perceived fame and admiration

He does reviews about knives and guns he has never used, but promises to and will "update" about them, he never does update anything. So we are left with promises based not upon actual use of the item but just how he feels about it

Glocks are the measure by which all things are to be judged. That AK? Too heavy, not like my Glock. That Sig? Too much metal, not like my Glock, that knife? an impressive 5 ounces, much less than my Glock, but doesn't fire bullets so it loses some likability points, unlike my Glock which I use to masturbate with.

dear lord, this video

"glock wins in sight radius because it has a longer better sight radius"

shouldn't USP win because they are in the "compact" class?

BTW glock ALSO wins the size battle because its skinnier........apples to apples my ass!

What I wanna know is, what the fuck is he doing in this video? You get the time with a rep from SHOTSHOW, and he bashes the product in front of the rep.

He's probably "keeping it real" or some other shit that he likes to think he does.

I stopped watching his vids a long time ago, and with Hickok45 doing his version of a 'review' on err gun there's no real reason to watch them.

He's great if you like listening to someone stroke AR's and Glocks for three hours when he's supposed to be reviewing a fucking PPK.

I got sick of this guy after three minutes, when he started listing off pointless initialisms without explanation (POU my ass, how about "purpose") and spouting off self-made terms that you have to watch yet another hour long video to understand. (The Nine Kinds of Cool or whatever the fuck. What happened to "This is sexy" and "This is functional")

If he spoke in the language we all agreed upon, stuck with the point, dropped this whole "I'm operator because I fly in a KC-135" act, and cut his videos down to about a sixth of their length, I might be able to stand watching a few.

Also, and here's where I drop the veneer of politeness. Stop with the god damn nine hour rants about fucking weight! STOP IT! Now! It is NOT the most important factor a firearm can have! A goddamn Jennings .22 is NOT better than a 1911 because it's lighter!

...Or I could watch Hickock45 talking about Zombies and get a chuckle out of it.

But that's just my opinion, I could be wrong.

The dude is way to obsessed with weight. Period. He needs to stop being a girly man and grow some fucking muscles.

My face when he bashes an AK for being too heavy then hangs 20 pounds of shit off of his AR.

This anon doesn't bother with Nutnfancy's gear reviews. I find that crucial to enjoying him.

Instead, I watch his action shooting shit out in the desert (anything with The Sledgehammer shooting course, the Trench pistol courses, that shotgun timed trial they ran with the keltec KSG and some other shotties not too long ago...). Those are actually more interesting, and the guy seems to lose a lot of the pretention and ends up being A LOT more entertaining and informative when he's out actually shooting and bantering with other gun-collectors and not sitting at a bench with a silly bullet point list trying to think up ways to amuse an invisible audience.

Overall, I think he's a good guy and is a better-then-decent spokesman for the "Sheepdog" crowd. If some random civilian was like "hey time to see what those crazy gunshow fucks are doing these days" and happens across Nutnfancy screwing around in the desert, I think it would put off a generally good impression. He doesn't look like an insane anti-gubbamint survivalist or red-neck or anything, but an educated Upper Middle-class hobbyist. Whether you agree with American civilians (which he technically is not, being an officer in the Air Force) adopting the guise of semi-pro militiamen is a loaded political question naturally, but it's something that's here.

Just avoid the majority of his gear reviews, unless they involve actual action shooting. That's indisputably when he is at his best.

Air Force pilots are all officers nowadays. Nutnfancy is a retired Colonel (or possibly Lt. Colonel, he avoids advertising it very much in public which is exactly what you're supposed to do if you're not an official spokesman). I don't know how many retired O-5/O-6s you know anon, but I can guarantee that they live a damn sight better then you do.

The guy probably flies for UPS or some shit now that he's retired. if you think a retired US military pilot isn't rolling in bank, then you don't know shit about the occupation.

No it's exactly what people do who make up their military "experience" on the spot.

He's a liar and a fool.

Really even pilots for small fliers make good amounts of cash. The bonus behind military is all those delicious free hours in large planes, that lands you the good shit.

This. And one other thing, he's done a lot of shooting, and he's pretty freaking good now. Their last standard run included 5 shots rapid offhand on a 25 yard 6 inch plate, after running to the station. Not many people who won't embarrass themselves trying to make shots like that and just miss every time.

I have a friend who is a pilot who didn't go the military route. Right now he flies a corporate jet, the Piaggio Avanti, which is a pretty slick looking Italian Turboprop that is manufactured by the same company that makes Ferrari cars. He's also flown everything else commercially from DC-3 (!) to 767/757

He tells me that the days of getting wildly overpaid are over and there is generally a two tier system where new pilots, even with lots of military hours don't get paid that much and the old-timers are retiring and so the pay average has gone down considerably since the old days. Just what I've heard.
My wife's oldest son is a med evac helo pilot and he only makes about 60K per year.

I'm pretty sure it's true that Nutn' is/was a Lt. Col/pilot who flew tankers, he had a video of a refueling on his site and I assumed it was him.

He has hinted that he is flying commercial, or at least did, and I even heard that he might be a reserve police officer (you know, those guys who go through the academy and are real cops but it's voluntary, they don't get paid.)

I don't hate him as much as many here although the superior attitude and somewhat false modesty does leak through and get irritating.

Any truth that he's a MORMON ??

Most of the hate he receives is ill based in my opinion. Sure he may not have been a door kicker in the military, but he did train to and operate airplanes worth millions of dollars. Becoming a pilot in the military is not easy. It takes a lot of time, effort, physical and mental acumen to do so.

On top of that, he has shown pictures of himself out inna woods as a little kid shooting 10/22s, hiking, and backpacking with his dad. So he has been hiking/camping/backpacking/shooting longer than most of /k/'s posters have been alive. He says time and time again in his videos that he is not an expert. He's just giving out his opinions based on his experiences.

I can't think of many videos he's done where he hasn't shot the gun or used/carried the knife he's reviewing. The only one that comes to mind is the GSG-5. Does anyone care to show me more videos of him reviewing things he hasn't used?

"Apples to apples" as in compact, .40SW, polymer framed handguns. The Glock 23 is the compact version of the Glock 22. The USP Compact is the compact version of the USP. It's very simple.
