- Join Dan Mink, The Rhinestone Roper and World Champion Gun Spinner, as he teaches HOW TO SPIN GUNS. We have all seen the Hollywood Cowboys and Cowgirls who could take their 45 Caliber Single-Six Revolvers and make them seem both weightless and graceful. Now you too can learn to handle your Wheel Gun like a true Wild West Pistolero.
Older folks like gun spinning because they're reminded of the old West. Younger folks like it because of Revolver Ocelot. No matter the age or reason, gun spinning will always remain the coolest thing.
Hi Adriel, I agree.
Middle-aged dudes like gunspinning because Revolver Ocelot reminded us of the Old West. 🤣
You're pretty good
@@rhinestoneropers9204 Tornado Yoshida (the guy they mocapped for Ocelot) is the best non-American gun spinner I ever saw. Might be worth looking up a video of him.
some of us younger folk like it because red dead redemption 2 🤠🐎
You’re pretty good
Thanks.
pretty... good
“Just what I’d expect from the man with the same code name as the boss”
You tend to twist your elbow when you shoot, that's a revolver technique.
I’ve started gun spinning about two years ago. My uncle was a Reenactor before he passed. Once I found his old peacemaker and hat I took up the mantle. Unfortunately it’s been rather difficult to find resources other then riflemen reruns and old movies. I am so glad to have found this channel to give me more guidance in carrying on his legacy. In those two years I’ve grown to get my own pair of matching engraved revolvers, a double rig I’ve built out of his old rig and my grandfathers old rig, then lastly I’ve learned all the foundation of spins and now growing on to more “fancy” tricks. These videos are such a great help
Good for you. If there are any tricks that you would like explained, I would be happy to, If I can.
I love how he schooled us in a chill way. Then dropped the best gun safety fyi ever. Loved this 👌
Thank you.
Spinning bigger guns, is very impressive, I once watched a cosplayer dual spinning a pair of Denix 1851 Colt Navy revolver in for a Denix spinning competition, I was surprised he didnt win, but man that was cool to watch, it was different.
I used grandfathers old ruger super blackhawk he used to use in cowboy action shooting. Heavy son of a gun, but it spins really well and the holster and belt I made for it fit really well.
Those old Rugers are Heavy. You must have strong hands.
I didn't know I needed this tutorial so bad 'til I saw it!
Hi Macario, I'm glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.
Well done! This comment is from a retired instructor in another field, but I recognize and appreciate skill and capabilities! Best of luck!
Thanks 👍
Got a ruger wrangler back in December and haven't stopped spinning it since. I'm not particularly good yet but I'm just having so much fun
Good for you! Fun is the key.
Still have long way to go with my two 6 inch SAA replicas. Hopefully I'll manage some tricks or at least basics before Halloween :) Huge respect from S.Korea. Stay safe and keep gunslinging.
I wish you good luck Simon. My bet is that you are looking at July rather than Halloween.
Arthur Morgan learning us to spin a gun :))))
Teaching*
@@workinprogress3338 maybe English isn't his first language?
Arthur never spins a single gun
@@RuckBay as i remember in game you can spin a gun actually?
@@TheGreatDunickonly in online mode the only kind of spin arthur can do is a basic flourish if you doubke tap Lb
Im gonna learn to spin guns because of this, i just got a ruger wrangler
Good Luck.
I’ve been spinning guns for two years and I’m fifteen now, but I have a Colt Single Action Army replica and I know how to spin it real well but I can’t spin two at once but have been practicing.
Good job Peter. As you know, you just have to get the off hand up to speed. Have fun.
Totally agree on your advice for the length of the barrel. I named mine "Johnson" by the way.
I have a 6.75 inch Heritage revolver and honestly the longer the barrel I found the heavier it is and harder it is for me to spin plus I don’t have big hands so it’s a bit difficult
Yes, they are not made for spinning but we do it anyway.
@@rhinestoneropers9204 I’ve gotta practice more. I’m thinking of getting a shorter barrel and starting off with that
That forward spin is hard but im gonna practise ever day now
Man, I would love to be able to do that! It’s looks so cool and fun!
Ive got a little 22 single action, was pretty fun learning how to spin and holster it (Even if I did chuck it into my foot a couple times)
Hi Wander, I started with a Ruger 22 also. I don't remember it as being fun to practice with though. If you are like me, you have quick hands and even quicker feet.
Same here. Got a ruger wrangler and have been practicing with it for a while, it's been really fun
This is amazing, thank you!
Needed this as some dude embarrassed me doing judo on my when my Makarov jammed.
Gave me a whole lecture and said I'm not cut out for automatics due to my tendency to absorb the recoil by twisting my elbow.
Yeah, so. I'm getting to practice.
"hey, you're pretty good"
Thanks.

pretty... good...
Theese are so good and educational i have a vintage colt 4.5 and i like theese cause my great great grandfather was a 1920s outlaw
Classic southern passtime of revolver spinning.
I subscribed bc you’re a beast I don’t think people understand how hard it is to actually get as good as you are it’s work much respect my guy
Thank you BNE. You are right it takes time and focus. As you know, the dilemma of the performer is that, if you do it well, it looks effortless.
@@rhinestoneropers9204 100% I’ve been practicing with my Cody colt 45 fingers get sore af 🤣
@@rhinestoneropers9204 I was watching your video like bruh this man is so nice with it lol real doc holiday
Those are the newer guys but still great. When they were young they watched Tom Mix, Sunset Carson, and a host of others. I watched their old movies as reruns on early TV, along with Flash Gordon, Cisco Kid, Hoppy, Gene and Roy. My dad was a master grade shooter and as youth was Texas cowboy and ranch/ farm hand. Dead eye with pistol or rifle into 50's. Under his and later Dustinguished Experts ( one of whom wrote the 1911 .45 manual) i became one too. Safety first.
Thanks Karl.
I'd really love to get into this. Based on what I've seen so far, you seem like a wholesome and knowledgeable guy and I hope I can find this tutorial again if I start!
Good Luck
I remember a while ago this was my first gun spinning video I watched at that time I had a really cheap 51 Navy toy and now I have a Colt single action army replica
How does it spin?
You make it look so easy! I know its alot harder for someone just starting to learn the spin
Thank you. It is difficult and painful in the beginning.
Glad you did a shout out to Gene Autry. He is my favorite western actor or at least in top 3. Randolph Scott is up there also.
Yes, Randolph had a great look.
My dad couldn't stand, Randolph Scott, called him a pouffe cowboy ( effeminate.) because his clothes and hair were always immaculately clean pressed after a hard fight rolling in the dust and beer, he would always emerge clothes in place and clean, hair combed and shiny.
@@biggusdickus5986 ; yes I get that. My dad told me he was very rich from oil.
Thanks. I'm wanting to learn so I'd have a side hustle if I'm ever able to retire and move back home. I got viking hands, so it'll be rough starting. Big palms, short fingers.
You are welcome. Let me know how it goes.
@@rhinestoneropers9204 thanks
Gracias por la lección, me ha sido de mucha utilidad, un saludo desde México 🇲🇽❤️
I think the old west cowboys started to spin their Colts when they got bored during cattle drives. I personally think it’s reallly fun to watch someone spin their Colts if they are exceptionally fast. I think the key is start slow and perfect the spin and then gradually increase the speed slowly. It’ll take at least 6 months or longer to really good at it.
Russell Crowe's brief spin moment in 3:10 to Yuma was epic given the circumstance
Nice presentation thank you
I'm glad you liked it Ken. Thanks for watching it.
I got a Colt SAA Replica (Co2) and i'm super overprotective. Bought a second one (got one with a blue finish, the other with a antique finish) and i can't imagine spinning is a good idea, considering how heavy they are. Think i will watch this video again and try it out. Thank you for that video.
Yes they are heavy. Just find a place with soft ground because you have to be willing to drop them if you are going to learn.
I’m obsessed, also we’re did you get your blue shirt in this vid?
Hi Penguin, I'm glad you noticed the shirt. I made it. I bought three Wrangler shirts and tore two apart to make the bib.
Thank you very much for this exercise. I wońt even spin like you, but I will train it 😅
You can do it!
Thank you friend. This is awesome. I’m learning how to spin my smith and Wesson 686 🙏🏼
Thank you and good luck.
Way to make it look easy buddy!
Thank you Brandon.
Wonderful video, thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Great fun. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it
You’re the best teacher!
Keep up the great job.
Thank you! Will do!
Very impressive
I started doing as a kid with a Co2 BB revolver that was a copy of the Colt Python. Then I got myself a Reck 8560 22lr single action revolver. It's essentially a Heritage Rough Rider 22 revolver, but this one is older, imported into the US in 1969 from West Germany. Hell, I spin my Glocks too. I never spin loaded guns though. The hardest part for me is spinning it forward because my fingers get in the way. I usually go a half forward spin, into the fingers to reverse direction to a rear spin. Then a full forward spin and cock the hammer as the gun comes to rest aimed forward. It's fun to do.
Awesome job!!
Thank you Brian.
I greatly appreciate you sharing the tools of your trade as a showman, its very fun to learn from someone so obviously passionate, i hope your doing well!
Appreciation from south dakota
Glad you enjoy it!
i love this im trying hard to learn
I spin an old Vaquero. It's like a batter swinging warm-ups in the on-deck circle with a donut on his bat. When I switch to a new Vaquero, it feels like i'm spinning nothing. Just my own method though. Great channel and wish I'd found it earlier.
Sounds like a great idea.
Great job and instruction sir.
Thank you Robert.
Someone’s been playing tons of Red Dead lately
I loved that game.
You're pretty good!
Thanks!
How much or long do you practice? I am just learning and like to wear my riig as much as possible to get the weight and fell of them . Is thaa good idea ?
HI John, When I decided to get good, I practiced for an hour, 4 days a week. Now I hit it once or twice a week for as long as my hands last. It's good to practice a variety of tricks. That way when your hands get tired, you can move on to a different trick and use different muscles.
The important thing is to wear them exactly the same way every time you perform and practice. If your belt is not on the same notch or if the belt is off to one side or if it is lower or higher, it can affect whether you can spin the guns back into the holster. If wearing your rig will help you discover the best position to wear it for performance, then it is good to wear it a lot. If you can't wear it for an extended period in the same way you do for performance then you are not gaining much.
Another reason that wearing it is good, is that short, frequent practices are good. If you are wearing the rig it will be easy to draw a gun and give it a spin or toss for just a few minutes then put it away and go back to what you were doing. Short practices allow you to actually practice more without fatigue. Practicing with fatigued muscles can promote bad habits. Although sometimes it's necessary.
Let me know how it's going.
Dan
I practiced my spinning by spinning scissors first. Maybe i just have a natural talent for spinning, but i started off spinning scissors way back in grade school, and i suppose that helped a bit.
@rhinestoneropers9204 . Have been wearing my rig around the place and it has really helped . It is a lot .more comfortable and is more natural. Like you suggested I can draw and spin for a few minutes then carry on and do it again. Thanks for the advice . I am working on spinningI it back into the holster.
Excellent video and have watched a few times now. Practicing on a 5” dummy model and broke skin a few times now so onto gloves until I get the Ruger with a smooth trigger.
Excited to keep learning!
Yes, this can be hard on the hands.
Cool & informative video 👍
I Love my 45 Ruger vaquero
HI John, Thanks for watching!
357 here ... and same ... :)
I've played with a replica 1851 navy since i was 16 and now I'm 58 and I'm so comfortable never played with it loaded. I would love to see how you do it with 51 Navy's, thanks.
HI Paul, I've never tried one. How does it work for you?
Brilliant skills
Thank you.
I been practicing with my uberti, you weren't kidding about the trigger guard chewing you up. Bruising too, but its too cool to not learn.
When you get a trick down, it does feel Cool. Have fun.
You can buy a wide trigger for your Uberti from Taylors. Here is the part # Uberti Cattleman Old Model Revolver Parts 1 x U0701010 Wide Trigger.
They are $20.00
Now that's slick. Loved it.
Thank You Seth.
this is so useful
i want to spin guns because soon i'll be doing a Arthur Morgan from red dead redemption 2 cosplay
Awesome!
Thank you Fabio.
Great video thank you
Glad you enjoyed it.
I wanted to learn this because of the Devil May Cry game series, they always make it look so cool
Go for it!
My fingers are aching from this, ima keep on practicing. Great tutorial btw
Best of luck! My hands last only so long doing it.
I watched this cause i found an old cap gun of mine when i was little now it was plastic but i found one that is a bit before my time and its metal time to learn best part its a cap gun so safety 👍
I learned how to spin guns from T.J. Lazer back in the late 80s.
WONDERFUL
Thank You.
Just got done watching another Clint Eaatwood movie, and was inspired to hop on RUclips and find a gun spinning tutorial movie. I have always wanted to do this. Clearly when you are first starting, the gun is gonna be getting dropped all over the place. Any suggestions on how to get started without damaging your gun, your flooring, etc? Maybe a really thick rug? :)
HI Captain, Great question! Even on a think rug, the gun seems to hit hard. Over the bed is good only for small tricks. The gun will tumble into the wall and headboard, or back into your knees. If you put the mattress on the floor, the gun will use it as a spring board to launch across the room.
The most vulnerable part of the gun is the grips. They will break very easily. So if you have purchased fancy grips, practice with the old ones. Sometimes broken grips can be epoxied back together and will last a while longer.
The 3rd best place to practice is outdoors on the grass, with the ground a little moist. This will still fill your barrel with mud, but your gun will not get hurt.
The 2nd best place is over grass with a thin carpet over the grass. This makes footing a slight problem but it is great for the gun.
The best place is next to the hay stack where the ground is covered with a few inches of old hay. This is very cushioned and will not be hard to move your feet on. I think that a heavy layer of grass clippings would work also.
I spin rugers and although I've broken a lot of grips, I've never actually damaged a gun, maybe scratched it up some. Obviously, I have spent time spinning indoors but it's my least favorite place. Outdoors in the winter is no picnic but I'd rather fight the cold than hear my precious pistols hit the floor, or the ceiling.
Thanks for the question.
Have fun.
@@rhinestoneropers9204 boy, sounds like a messy business no matter how you slice it! How would an EVA foam mat hold up? One of those heavy duty ones that people put in their garages?
Ich verwende styro phor Platten kosten sehr wenig und schützen perfekt die Waffe .
Put an ear plug in the barrel to keep the mud out. JUST REMEMBER TO REMOVE IT ON REAL GUNS!@@rhinestoneropers9204 I have bad hearing to the extra wind and music makes a tutorial difficult to hear the instruction.
Can you spin a 38 S&W special?
My man has put some work in! I practice everyday, it takes longer than you think! Be careful! 🇺🇲LONG LIVE THE REPUBLIC🇺🇲 💥💥💥💥💥🔫
Thank you so much! Always wanted to learn this with my bb magnum replica. Amazing video!
Glad you liked it!
After seeing Hell on Wheels, and then watching John Dorie in Fear the walking dead Ive become much more interested in gunslinging and duelists, JD in fear the walking dead was such a satisfying character and the antique army colts tied it up so well
I'll have to watch that.
An overview on leather tooling and it's rise in popularity in the old west
Didn't ask for this, didn't look it up. I don't even own anything more lethal than a BB gun. But thank you very much for your comprehensive explanations!
You are welcome. I rarely shoot anything more lethal than a BB gun.
Not sure if you said it and I missed it, but did you injure your right finger spinning somehow?
Hi Dane, No I injured my middle finger when a horse was messing with me. Now it takes concentration to keep it out of the way when spinning.
I want to learn thank ypu.so much for the learning
You are welcome 😊
Looks great and WAY cool. Thanks.
Glad you like it!
Good day sir. I just got my replicas and started spinning with your instructions. Great tutorial videos. Within a few minutes I was spinning both, front and back. One quick question: I was viewing your video "how to spin guns" and really love the shirt you're wearing, can you please tell me what type of shirt it is and where a fellow might be able to get one of those.
thanks
Hi Jean-Sebastian, Congratulations on your quick success. I'm glad you liked the video and the shirt. My Mother and I made the shirt. Sorry, there is no place to buy one. I bought three Wrangler shirts and cut two of them up to make the bib.
the tricks are gold just awesome but the cloth ohhh lord
HI Ken, Thanks for watching.
Spin a Derringer? With no trigger guard that would be impressive!
dont own a gun but videos about gun spinning are so addicting to watch
Thank You. I'm glad you enjoy them.
Man you really know how to pull those smoke wagons !!!!!!!!
Thanks Thomas.
Great video.
Thanks
Great content thanks
Glad you enjoyed it.
Awesome skill there, but man what's that belt you're wearing? I'd love one like it.
I would like to learn about the movie tombstone where is with Watt eap
How much do those guns weight, they look so light when you spin and toss them.
Hi Dandy, I will take that as a complement. Thank you. They are two pounds each. They are heavy enough to tire your hand quickly. And heavy enough that you don't want to drop them on your foot.
@@rhinestoneropers9204 Thank you for the reply, the complement was fully intended.
I think 5 1/2" bbls offer the best balance.
i've done spinning with toy revolvers so much with my right had i genuienly cant do it with my left
My left hand used to be useless also. Now it is more reliable than my right for some tricks but it took a lot of practice.
@@rhinestoneropers9204i didn’t get notified but thanks for the answer. I’ll keep practicing!
My favourite wild west art is HOSS WRASSLIN
I’m cosplaying Jesper fahey from six of crows for the Ren fair and halloween so I need to learn how to spin revolvers tysm for this
Also what revolvers were you using for this video
How did the fair go? I'm spinning Ruger New Vaqueros.
Just... WOW!!
Thanks Jesse.
great teach !!
Glad it was helpful!
Cómo estás seguro de que el arma no se dispara?
I tried doing this with my two Colt SAA's 5 1/2 in barrels over the bed so if I drop them it won't hurt them for it's a soft landing but I didn't practice enough to get good at it for I guess it's kind of impractical for me to do and I don't want to keep it up over hard surfaces to potentially damage my valuable Colts !!!
I agree.
Some people is going to cry about u not checking your gun's first I say you know what you're doing piss on them great veido I enjoyed it but I'll never be as good as you that's for sure keep up the good work
Thanks Dave.
Can you spin a 7.5 barrel ? Is it me or is it almost hard on the finger
Yes they can be spun. They are very smooth for over the shoulder tosses. I think all this stuff is hard on the fingers. They are heavier.
Badass, you are awesome!!!
Thank you.
Great content!! 🤠
Thanks.
this dude can litterally survive anything
You bet! If I am attached by renegade balloons, I will prevail.
Where I can get shirts bib shirts like yours?
I had to make it.
I do this with my snubby I have to rely on catching or stopping with the grip
Great!
