There’s a classic story of a farmer who was raffling off his prize horse. He sold raffle tickets for $5 each. He ended up selling a 1000 tickets, pocketing $5,000. When the winner was selected, it turned out there was no horse. So what does the farmer do? He refunds the winner’s money.
@@JustSumGuy01 On your original comment, they do have a momentary option for rifles where it has a purpose. Only the pistol light that isn't released yet doesn't? A pistol light that I'm certain will sell out inside of a day. Soooo your whole comment and premise are well, wrong.
Yeah about the Chipman thing, I just got a text from "Sharon at Moms Demand Action" trying to get me to call a local senator (Angus King, I live in Maine) to tell him to confirm Chipman. I called to give him a few reasons not to, but not before telling Sharon what kind of person she was trying to get appointed to public office. Seriously though, more people need to be calling their senators to tell them why this guy is unfit for the job.

Brandon is my favorite react tuber. He literally does more of these videos than any other type nowadays. He was recommended to me after watching another react tuber
Oh Brandon, if you ever want to test the gun community's propensity for engaging in cancel culture, you just have to insult somebody's favorite caliber.
Also criticism is not “cancelling.” You’re allowed to criticize someone. That’s freedom of speech. Not being free to say garbage without people criticizing you.
I'm also highly skeptical that SOF would receive training from a guy with zero training or service. That just doesn't smell right. SWAT doesn't seem especially likely either.

I'm so sick of explaining that there is a difference between voting with your dollars and cancel culture. Personally I am never going to buy a modlight because their company culture is trash and their product is overpriced IMO. Now if I got a bunch of people to call modlights web hosting company to get them taken down, that is cancel culture.
I agree. Individually boycotting companies with policies (or lobbying) that you disagree with is NOT equivalent to wanting them banned from every social platform for holding a certain opinion.
I agree with you completely. I’m meaning just from more of a culture angle. The folks who don’t stop at voting with their dollar, and go on a smear campaign.
Cancel culture is specific and targeted harrassment of a company and their partners to try and get them shut down. Voting with our dollars is just educated consumerism and should never be confused with what the purple haired feminists on Twitter do.
Yep. I have always cared about who I give my money to and I'll tell anyone that will listen why I will not shop somewhere with the hope that more people feel like I do thus costing a bad company as much as possible.
Cancel Dillion Lawrence, for canceling poseyk01, for canceling Excaliber01, for canceling OP, for canceling Brandon, for canceling Cancel Culture, for canceling Mod Light, for canceling Navyman, for canceling TRex Arms.
NavyMan had excellent points about why you shouldn't peak with your face in a gunfight. He wasn't trying to get Trex canceled, its was just fair criticism. Trex goofed and its fair to call him out on it. Saying the truth doesn't need to be redacted is too broad of a brush to use for people wanting to pull vids. Example, GarandThumb pulled his comment on the same vid bc it was being misinterpreted. It still is the truth, but Garand chose to redact it. You need to be careful with that kind of rhetoric bc it can paint people like NavyMan to be more of a badguy than they really are to people who follow you. (Hence the same reason Garand pulled his comment about Trex.) Supporting criticism is supporting free speech. If we can't criticize each other openly then we are self censoring ourselves. You are right, our community needs to be more united, but that doesn't mean people are infallible bc they have a big following: (MAC scalping SVDs.) Still love you and your channel and modlite can go pound sand lol.
I completely agree with that, all is fair in criticizing tactics etc for the sake of discussion.

Yo Brandon, I got an idea for a new "whiteboard of knowledge" video. The AK-12 is a modernised version of the AK platfom, but what exactly did they modernise? Could you make that clearer?

Honestly modlite's product speaks for itself and doesn't need all the influencers' reviews. They should keep a minimum presence for their social stuff and would be smart to not get into these dramas in the first place.

Hey Brandon I wanted to say I brought home my first rifle today and you inspired me to get an AK! Telling my father about it may have gotten me written out of his will because he is an AR man, but seeing the pain in his eyes was worth it.
Plot twist: The whole T-Rex drama was actually just a clever marketing strategy to get his channel more recognition, while also advertising the flashlight company.
Ok I’m so lost here. Why would it be a scandal for a guy from a firearms company to be training military guys? Edit: I’m also super tired so my brain is not following anything right now.
I've entered the raffle at my local gun show every year. Not that big of a town, and I have friends in law enforcement, so my rumor reach is wide. Never heard of someone winning.
@@johnwilliams9179 It started with Evan Hafer getting scared when Kyle was photographed in a BRCC shirt. Fallout was them pulling sponsorship from the Blaze. Then, recently, they did a NYTimes review where they called Kyle's supporters disgusting people they didn't want buying their coffee. So we're obliging and not buying it.
I won a raffle once. It was an adoption fundraiser, but it wasn’t a single shot. 10/22. Since it was free (I was donating the money anyway), I partially bubba’d it with an archangel kit
Lmao I bubba’d my Rossi rs.22. It’s the gun that makes gun guys giggle while scaring the uneducated. Bought a new stock for it which came with Picatinny rails. So obviously I bought a flash light and a laser. I also got a 25 round mag for it which is AR style, so it’s big.
Yeah. I was watching a live stream about....pfft I dont even remember. But he said something about bigger, crew served weapons and then dropped a "we only do _small_ arms"
I’m a fan from Sweden, and I’m on vacation in America rn and next week I’m going to battlefield Vegas where I’ll get to shoot a gun for the first time so I’m really really excited for that experience, especially since I’m gonna shoot the ppsh and mg-42. We barley have guns in Sweden so it’s a once in a life time for me and I’m glad this channel has fouled this interest for me
They don't have guns in Sweden? Damn, that sucks. I'm British and we may not have many but there are still a few shooting ranges and gun shops in my town.
I've never even filled out those raffle papers handed out at gun shows. Even in the best of times I've only been to five(?). It's slipped into my back pocket and I forget about it until checking clothing on laundry day.
Pretty sure modlite dropped trex arms because Lucas said he didn’t like their pistol light because it didn’t have momentary. Then they just used the navy man video as an excuse. The people that run Modlite are very petty and emotionally fragile it seems.
“Another episode of Brandon keeps the lights on….” 🤣 Finally honesty from a RUclipsr, at least about why the make some of their content. Instead of something like “I don’t like to cover YT drama, BUT………”
Having looked into the whole "Does TRex Arms train military/SWAT" I've found the answer is that they do to a very limited extent and Botkin blows it out of proportion pretending the units are more elite than they are, or that he trained them when he actually just let them use his range, or that they came to him when he offered it to them.
Blows it out or proportion? You mean the guy who goes to the shooting range with 60 thousands dollars worth of gear on his body is doing too much? Lmao
@@johns1625 hahaha ha! That is great. And honestly every "high speed" firearms instructor claims to have trained military because some veterans took their ccw class.

Like what, a Shadowhawk X800 piece of trash?
seeing this 3 years later...and PSR...and Lucas...
I like how brandon explains everything that even thogh I'm the only one who probably doesn't get it
Yeah nah... I don't get it either... So boy-o trains professionals... I think it is claimed.. Or not claimed.. Flashlight Co. Cuts ties with boy-o... ?
I don't get it either brother
Don’t worry your not
Your definitely not alone with that.
I've seen the memes, but had no context either.
Honestly modlite's product speaks for itself and doesn't need all the influencers' reviews. They should keep a minimum presence for their social stuff and would be smart to not get into these dramas in the first place.
Completely agreed
I get the feeling they are left leaning in management, hence the reoccurring need to SJW all over their partners.
I trained with Brandon Herrera at Recondo operations group.
The dude is no joke. I believe he was running an 5.45 x39 AK 74 that weekend and was ringing steel at about every range.
After watching the bloopers: “You ok Brandon? Too many White Claws?”

This drama can all be summed with 3 words
"Touch grass loser"
Even if T-REX Arms had trained military groups, whats wrong about that…?

"Brandon keeps the lights on" while speaking in a darkened room...
Only the necessary ones. The borelights I guess lol.
Hey Brandon I wanted to say I brought home my first rifle today and you inspired me to get an AK! Telling my father about it may have gotten me written out of his will because he is an AR man, but seeing the pain in his eyes was worth it.
9:21 "this guy literally has balls of steel" that absolutely killed me 🤣🤣 I was having a drink and spat it out because I laughed so hard 😂
Brandon: Here’s what happened in the gun community.
Some degenerate: But where’s the AK 50?
Technically that’s you, because you typed it...
....for me.
Where AK50?

@@PGZSpablogonzalez guyes stawp bothering him, it takes long tyme to make le beeg gun, it’s totally normal to develop sumtheng over 10 yearz
We all want that big, long, hard, fully semi-automatic rifle.
Plot twist:
The whole T-Rex drama was actually just a clever marketing strategy to get his channel more recognition, while also advertising the flashlight company.
Ok I’m so lost here. Why would it be a scandal for a guy from a firearms company to be training military guys? Edit: I’m also super tired so my brain is not following anything right now.
@@centurionflorian4906 people that make these wild claims never have any proof so don’t bother asking.

I've entered the raffle at my local gun show every year. Not that big of a town, and I have friends in law enforcement, so my rumor reach is wide. Never heard of someone winning.

@@johnwilliams9179 It started with Evan Hafer getting scared when Kyle was photographed in a BRCC shirt. Fallout was them pulling sponsorship from the Blaze. Then, recently, they did a NYTimes review where they called Kyle's supporters disgusting people they didn't want buying their coffee. So we're obliging and not buying it.
@@joshuaclark1696 TIL thank you. I was trying to figure out what happened but almost every link I found was leading to totally different stories.
I won a raffle once. It was an adoption fundraiser, but it wasn’t a single shot. 10/22. Since it was free (I was donating the money anyway), I partially bubba’d it with an archangel kit
You monster
Lucky, the only raffle I ever won was in grade school and I was out sick that day so they reraffled my prize away
Lmao I bubba’d my Rossi rs.22. It’s the gun that makes gun guys giggle while scaring the uneducated. Bought a new stock for it which came with Picatinny rails. So obviously I bought a flash light and a laser. I also got a 25 round mag for it which is AR style, so it’s big.
Can you bubba a 10/22? If you stay out of the trigger group and dont cut or grind away the barrel and chamber?
This video is how I actually learned about the existence of Modlite
Same here !
Never heard of them before this
Same
Maybe their social media team IS doing something right 🤔
Don't buy their china crap, if you want a affordable proven light get a streamlight. If you want a go to war light buy surefire.
"Yes, I have a home defense MP5" is the best quote of 2021 🤣

Anybody else take waaaaaay too long to realize the Trex arms naming joke? #AKGNotificationSquad
Yeah. I was watching a live stream about....pfft I dont even remember. But he said something about bigger, crew served weapons and then dropped a "we only do _small_ arms"
Everyone: *fighting eachother*
Brandon: "idk go do some push-ups or something"
Way to go, Brandon, keeping it classy with the “Bill and Ted” reference: party on, dude.
I’m a fan from Sweden, and I’m on vacation in America rn and next week I’m going to battlefield Vegas where I’ll get to shoot a gun for the first time so I’m really really excited for that experience, especially since I’m gonna shoot the ppsh and mg-42.
We barley have guns in Sweden so it’s a once in a life time for me and I’m glad this channel has fouled this interest for me
Dude, that's awesome!
Did they brrrt?
@@wokedog1799 they did brrt quite a lot
They don't have guns in Sweden? Damn, that sucks. I'm British and we may not have many but there are still a few shooting ranges and gun shops in my town.
I've never even filled out those raffle papers handed out at gun shows. Even in the best of times I've only been to five(?). It's slipped into my back pocket and I forget about it until checking clothing on laundry day.
Pretty sure modlite dropped trex arms because Lucas said he didn’t like their pistol light because it didn’t have momentary. Then they just used the navy man video as an excuse. The people that run Modlite are very petty and emotionally fragile it seems.
Yeah, i would be too if I spent over $500 on a light that costs $100 in parts.

Kerfuffle? Brandon has blown his cover as a Canadian spy
I am a simple man. I see Jurassic Park in the thumbnail, I click.
“Another episode of Brandon keeps the lights on….” 🤣
Finally honesty from a RUclipsr, at least about why the make some of their content. Instead of something like “I don’t like to cover YT drama, BUT………”
Someone: *breaks into brandons house.*
Brandon: "Welp, time to get my Mp5!"
Having looked into the whole "Does TRex Arms train military/SWAT" I've found the answer is that they do to a very limited extent and Botkin blows it out of proportion pretending the units are more elite than they are, or that he trained them when he actually just let them use his range, or that they came to him when he offered it to them.
Blows it out or proportion? You mean the guy who goes to the shooting range with 60 thousands dollars worth of gear on his body is doing too much? Lmao
So the answer would be no then? Since he doesn’t train them and they just only use the range?
@@johns1625 Can you read?
@@johns1625 hahaha ha! That is great. And honestly every "high speed" firearms instructor claims to have trained military because some veterans took their ccw class.
@@ChevTecGroup it's true then, right? Training military doesn't mean to me that he went in and trained under the employ of the government or something.

This is my favorite gun meme review for the simple fact of the "Oh no! Anyways" Top Gear meme.
The T.Rex Arms drama was the dumbest thing. The 2A community is so quick to tear each other apart. This is why the anti-gunners keep winning. They're focused and united, we're not.

Is it from the AK50 testing? Lol.
Or is it just the light?
It's called a stye, they hurt like a bitch

I've only ever seen them looking like a pimple, so I didn't even consider it.

I thought it was some sort of allergic reaction at first. That whole side of his face looks swollen. Then again, maybe its just the lighting . Idk.
Someone probably punched him in the face and he hid it with makeup, given his really poor take in this video I'd say he may have deserved it.
