As a girl i am always afraid to ask family about guns because im scared of judgement from them since i have 0 knowledge about guns. but i have always been intrested in guns and firearms. thanks for this. it was really informative and fun to watch.
I’m a chick and have been shooting/handling guns for over 30 years. Shooting is a skill and can be learned just like any other skill. At first guns are intimidating and scary. Later when you know what you’re doing, and you will, you have respect for them. I’m a better shot than my husband, who’s been handling guns longer than 30 years. The first time I held a gun, the fact that handguns were developed (aside from hunting) to kill another human being was very sobering. Then, okay, what’s next? I learned to shoot, reload, rack the gun, clean them, etc. I shoot revolvers, semiautomatic handguns, rifles and shotguns. Ignore the idiots who make fun of you or put you down. They weren’t born knowing how to shoot just like nobody’s born knowing how to drive. Kudos to you for wanting to learn.
You explained it so clearly...My Dad tried to teach me to shoot and he kept using terminology I didn't know much about, so I appreciate you for not confusing me!! You cleared a lot of it up for me
Awesome. Thank you so much! Like I said in the video, terminology is the most important thing in learning ANY new skill. If you can't understand the language and the jargon, any new skill is going to be confusing. Once you and your teacher are on the same page with the terms and words being used, learning gets far easier. I'm so glad this helped you!
This is like the most calming, most soothing, and most professional (video production and delivery and content wise) video I’ve ever seen in my entire 19 years of life Thank you for making this video. Internet needs this. I need this vibe
@@arash1934 I try very hard to respond to every polite comment on my videos. Sometimes, the notifications don't pop up and I miss seeing the comments. But when I notice them, I do endeavor to acknowledge what people say.
I'm only 11 mins into this video and I'm already learning so much. Thank you so much for starting with terminology. I agree safety is important, but if you don't know what part is what, how can you be safe? Super helpful, thank you!
The idea of introducing terminology before safety rules are pretty legit!! And now you've mentioned not to use videos online as the sole training method is also inspiring. Thank you for this video!
Thank you for this great video. As a newbie to shooting I found it rather confusing with so many of the videos and websites speaking technical jargon. This was exactly what I was looking for. Great job Sir.
Cool. I'm glad this helped you understand the basics, without being confusing. That is exactly what I was hoping to provide for people. Thank you for taking the time to comment.
Thanks, man! I'm thinking about joining the Airforce, but even without that, I believe these are important life skills to have. I had already had some prior knowledge, and this really helped fill in the gaps. Soon, I hope to take some classes for firearms, and I'll do so with confidence because of this video. Thanks a million!! :)))
Thank you so much for making this very helpful video! Many others I've seen have so much technical terminology that I can't follow them very well. My husband's entire family is really into hunting, so it was always sort of intimidating when they offered to show me anything. This was exactly what I was looking for!!
Thank you so much for your comment. That means a lot to me. Yes, guns can be very intimidating. When teaching new people, I believe easing their fears is the top priority. I'm happy to hear this video helped calm your concerns. I hope you actually get to shoot and enjoy the hobby someday soon!
You're welcome. That was the whole point of this video; providing some basic introduction, so people will be less nervous and more prepared before attending a face-to-face training class. Glad you enjoyed it!
This video was so cool! I'm a teen who is just getting into firearms (my parents have been talking about getting me firearm lessons) and this helped me a lot. I got so excited to hear that you had the exact same opinion as me on talking about terminology before safety! It really helped me understand what you were talking about with the safety part to hear the terms first. :D
Thanks, man. I appreciate that. I've always thought it was weird when people say, "Teenagers think they know everything." I have never found that to be true. In my experience, teenagers are always eager to learn and be educated. I'm glad you found this video helpful and I appreciate you taking the time to comment.
Your points were good and telling them to seek instructions from an instructor was a good statement. We all need knowledge and when we think we know all we become dangerous.
Not violent at all just trying to learn how to shoot a gun. For self defense just in case I'm in a situation like a robbery or someone is threatening my life. Very important to learn guns.
Thank you very much. I know how opinionated firearms enthusiasts can be. I tried to use a very "hickock45" mentality and be very diplomatic. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
So, my dad was watching this video and the explanation was so clear, simple and educational that I logged into my YT account and subbed to your channel immediately. Very impressed
Awesome. That is exactly the intent of this video - to help people gain a little insight before getting proper in-person training. I hope you have a fun time at your course and thanks for watching!
Thank you for this video! Very informative and I like the way you’ve approached us beginners.. I’ve watched several videos on gun ownership and about starting out and this is very very good because it doesn’t assume us newbies know anything.. which is how you teach ppl. Other videos were informative if you already have a basic knowledge. Learning the terminology is very helpful for me and helps me relate this info to other things I e learned this far.
You are very welcome. I'm glad you found it helpful. I agree any "beginner" videos are not very good and they skip a lot of important fundamentals. My motive behind creating this was to lay the groundwork, so people will be a lot more comfortable before they go to a training class.
Thank you. I think about making more a lot, actually. This is not a "firearms channel" per se, but this is one of my most popular videos and lots of people have asked for more. I keep thinking maybe I should do a firearms channel... We shall see what the future holds...
@@LuthorvilleCA I have ran into this problem my self and I would just recommend doing everything on one channel as some of your viewers will like the overlap and the videos have a higher chance of doing better when you already have a slight subscriber base built it. Your channel could either have mixed content or slowly over time you can transition to being just a firearms channel. I started with a fitness channel first and then I transitioned to tech channel and because I had viewers to already, it helped boosted the new tech content and overall everything performed better.
@@SERGE_Tech Yeah, I hear what you're saying. I think it depends on two main factors: 1. The quantity of content. 2. How closely it relates to your current channel. For example, if it's just a few videos that are slightly off-topic, it can be okay. Almost like a "special series". But, if it ends up being 50 videos veering way off the original premise of your channel, you should just create a different channel. Personally, I already have multiple channels for multiple subjects. Some are far more popular than others. For example, I have a skateboarding channel with over 30K subscribers and I have a brand new bicycling channel with... 29. Not 29,000. Just... 29. Ha, ha! I see transitioning the topic of your channel worked out very well for you. I just looked at your channel and your tech videos really surged in popularity, compared to the fitness stuff. That's awesome! But, yes, the firearms stuff is fun. I'm glad you enjoyed what I did.
Thank you for sharing such an organized and educational video. I have never practiced shooting, what should be my first hand gun or rifle? Any recommendations?
You're welcome. Glad you liked it. What should your first firearm be? Really depends on what you intend to use it for. There are so many uses for firearms. Hunting? Home defense? Personal protection? Target shooting? Sport shooting? Cowboy action? Skeet? No one can tell you what your first gun should be, until you explain what you want to do with it.
I think this is a top class firearms safety training video in itself. The only thing that remains is handling of the gun which is best learned when taking accredited classes.
I really enjoyed your presentation. Despite it being the basis of firearm practice I found this upload to be to the point, thorough and well thoughtout. Personally I feel that this upload will be very insightful and aid alot of potential new firearm owners. I do have to point out that it is probably not the best idea to cross thumbs as a means of creating a stable grip on your pistol as it may lead to unnecessary "muzzle flip" and thereby reducing accuracy which in my belief is a liability in a self defense scenario. Also you going to want to watch the itchy finger on the trigger when re-holstering buddy.. I saw that😳
I'm Filipino who have seen a lot of guns in Ph streets. I have seen security guards bring shotguns or rifles with sidearms in establishments like malls, schools, offices, or even parks. Seeing guns in daily life makes me want to learn about it. I have been afraid of carrying or even holding it. Now I'm here in US, I want to own one as part of the Constitution and become a responsible gun owner. This video gave me a good insight. Thank you.
Turning 18 in January and I’m looking forward to getting into fire arms (legal age in uk). Been doing archery for a long time so I’m good as far as saggy is concerned but I’m looking to get into what sort of fact and figures that are used in fire arms, techy things and what not. Thanks for the vid. Really insightful
Excellent. I'm glad you found it useful. I've never been to the UK, but I'm under the impression that shotguns and clay shooting is very popular over there. Have fun!
6/19/20 after seeing all these weird movements around the country and crowds demanding “defund the police”, certainly, I needed this video to start my own collection of guns. Excellent video!!! 😃🇺🇸👍🏽
Thanks. You mean at the end? On the 100 yard shots? That's actually a _Caddyshack_ reference. I'm doing a parody of Bill Murray. Some viewers get that joke and some miss it.
@@LuthorvilleCA haha yeah weirdly enough though I'm a GenXer I never saw Caddyshack, so totally missed the reference. The joke still plays well, to your credit. :)
I'm still around. Just very busy with multiple projects. I have ideas for Luthorville videos. I haven't abandoned this channel. Just haven't had time to work on anything. Thanks for watching!
You know I'm imitating Bill Murray from the movie *Caddyshack* , right? If you have never seen it, check it out. You'll understand why I'm using that voice.
At 1st I was getting really annoyed. because I walked away and was barely listening, then I heard him start talking super weird while shooting. Like it broke my thought process of what I was doing in the next room because the joke was going on waaaayyyy too long. Then walking back to my computer I actually listened to what he was saying and I realized it was Billy Murray from Caddy Shack and I started smiling. I wish more 90's millineals and younger knew that movie or any of the Big 3 in it. Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, and Rodney Dangerfield. I literally just learned that the mayor from Groundhog Day(Brian Doyle-Murray) was Bill Murray's Older Brother lmao.
Excellent question. But there literally isn't a single house for over half-a-mile in any direction from this spot. So, the only person who could get hurt from a ricochet is me.
Although I believe every American who wants an Armalite should own one, I'm not personally into modern sporting rifles. I've fired them, but I enjoy the Old West style of firearms the most.
I have an ar and I like them but I like military rifles i have 2 enfields (both sporterized sadly) and a Mosin. I’m going to get an m1 or a k98 next but my uncle gave me a Ruger old model single six and a marlin 336 30-30 and love them both
Just started firearms training. Had a 15 year old cousin die from a ricocheted Bullet to the heart several years ago. Extremely terrified of that because I know it does happen, but I’m a petite single female, so have to feel I can protect myself, so my fears have to be set aside, yet still very aware.
The PPSh-41 is a World War II Soviet submachine gun. No. I can't do a review of that, because I don't own or have access to 70 year old Russian machine guns.
@@papalenin3268 If you want to see a review of the PPSh-41, you can find them on the following TH-cam channels: *hickock45* *MoreFPSRussia* *Forgotten Weapons* *TAOFLEDERMAUS* *capandball* Hope that is helpful and you find what you are looking for on one of those videos.
You know what is strange? This video had 91,000 views when you asked this question, and you were the FIRST person to ask. I'm shocked no one else has ever realized I left that part out. The reason this video doesn't teach how to load or unload a firearm is because I want viewers to get trained in-person by a professional. So, I excluded loading/unloading on purpose. Amazing it took 91,000 views before anyone noticed.
You can get a firearm in the US without getting your license or any training prior? Anyone with can afford one can go into a gun store and get one? Interesting
Every state has slightly different laws regarding the process of purchasing a firearm. I don't know the nuances of the laws in all 50 states, so I can't tell you the process everywhere.
Im 12 and i am ready set on joining some branch in the military so I wanted to know the basics about guns so asked my dad if we could go to a shooting range or lessons on how to use a firearm but he said no and was like you are gonna be a DANGEROUS woman *sigh* so all i can do is get to know what i can online :/
Well, that's a great idea. You still have 6 years before you can join. That means when you finally go to Basic Training, you will already know a lot more than your fellow recruits. I think you are very smart to learn as much as you can before you enter the military. Thank you for watching!
It's so crazy to me how, in the US, you can acquire a firearm without any registration or legal procedures, and at pretty much any age. Where I live, not only do you need a goverment-approved license and training, but you must be over 18 to acquire a firearm. Never had school/public shooting issues. Nevertheless, brilliant video! I'm not a gun fanatic in the least, but I like educating myself on all kinds of subjects, and firearms happened to be the interest I landed on haha
That is not true at all. In the United States, Federal law requires all firearm dealers be licensed and to initiate a background check before transferring a firearm to a non-dealer, regardless of where the transfer takes place. Background checks for firearms have been conducted through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) since November 1998. Most states require buyers be at least 18 years old too. This idea that anyone and everyone in the United States can just walk into stores and buy guns, as easily as chewing gum, is an absolute lie. But, thanks for watching and commenting! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
And remember switching to your sidearm is always faster than reloading
Yeah nice try Soap

KILLING ME with the Caddy Shack references!!! XDXDXD Great video all the way through
Thank you. Glad you got the Caddyshack joke. Some folks miss it.
rule 3 is so important, i literally shot myself in hand i thought its unloaded 😂😂😂 dont be like me
Ouch. Sorry to hear that.
Thank you so much
many thanks
Eric! Where are you??? More videos, please!
I'm still around. Just very busy with multiple projects. I have ideas for Luthorville videos. I haven't abandoned this channel. Just haven't had time to work on anything.
Thanks for watching!
Luthorville: Building an Off-Grid Mojave Tiny House so long as you’re ok. You make wonderful videos :) god bless and stay safe!
Excellent and highly informative video. And I loved the Caddyshack reference. Nice Bill Murray impersonation. LOL!
Thank you. I always appreciate it when someone gets the _Caddyshack_ reference.
I think this very, very good information for beginner's
Think you a lot!
"It's on the steel"
I love that voice
You know I'm imitating Bill Murray from the movie *Caddyshack* , right? If you have never seen it, check it out. You'll understand why I'm using that voice.
At 1st I was getting really annoyed. because I walked away and was barely listening, then I heard him start talking super weird while shooting. Like it broke my thought process of what I was doing in the next room because the joke was going on waaaayyyy too long. Then walking back to my computer I actually listened to what he was saying and I realized it was Billy Murray from Caddy Shack and I started smiling. I wish more 90's millineals and younger knew that movie or any of the Big 3 in it. Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, and Rodney Dangerfield. I literally just learned that the mayor from Groundhog Day(Brian Doyle-Murray) was Bill Murray's Older Brother lmao.
That's pretty funny. It always makes me smile when people get the Caddyshack reference.
What if we only shoot indoors? We only use paper targets
Nothing wrong with that if you're having fun.
The caddy shack reference is funny
Thank you. Glad you got the joke!
I like steel targets because they make a little ping noise when I hit them
Yes, it's more gratifying than paper for sure.
Even know I most of this stuff it’s still fun to watch the video
Cool. I'm glad you enjoyed it.
I’m just trying to learn the basics so I understand what my boyfriend is talking about. Because he’s absolutely in love with in guns. More then me lol
Most women love their shoes more than their men.
Most men love their guns more than their women.
It all evens out.
I also need to make so sure I'm educated on self defense laws. That'll be next on my agenda🙂
They do vary from state to state, so it's good to be educated. If you travel a lot, be sure to check into reciprocity laws too.
Great lesson. Great sence of Bill Murray....😄👍 Just enuf detail.👍🔥
Thank you. Always fun when someone gets the Caddyshack reference.
0:45 made me hit that 👍 and 1:15 made me subscribe.
Thanks. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and the advice was meaningful to you.
Thank you very much for such a wonderful video!!!! Tha best!
Glad you liked it!
I'm curious. Aren't you afraid that if you shoot you may hit one of those may rocks and would richochet and harm someone??
Excellent question. But there literally isn't a single house for over half-a-mile in any direction from this spot. So, the only person who could get hurt from a ricochet is me.

Great video. Thank you for making it sir.
You're welcome. Glad you enjoyed it.
Today I learned what Lackadaisical meant
I was trying to teach the basics of firearms and inadvertently expanded vocabularies as well. Excellent!
29:22 this got me laughing hard 😂😂
Do you own an Modern Sporting Rifle or just "old outdoorsy guns" I own mostly older firearms but I do own an old 80s AR15
Although I believe every American who wants an Armalite should own one, I'm not personally into modern sporting rifles. I've fired them, but I enjoy the Old West style of firearms the most.
@@LuthorvilleCA one last question Uberti or Cimarron or just Ruger
@@JohnsonFonDon I prefer to buy things made in the USA.
I have an ar and I like them but I like military rifles i have 2 enfields (both sporterized sadly) and a Mosin. I’m going to get an m1 or a k98 next but my uncle gave me a Ruger old model single six and a marlin 336 30-30 and love them both
Who else thinks a gun safety course with air soft rifles would be a huge success in high schools?
Respectable American high schools already have rifle and marksmanship teams.
great!
The Sam Sulek of guns
Thanks 🤗
You're welcome.
very good video:-) i learn a lot
Cool. Thank you for your comment. I'm glad it was educational.
Is it rare to die from ricochets?
Yes. Quite rare. Dying from a ricochet *can* happen, but not very often.
@@LuthorvilleCA Thanks!
Just started firearms training. Had a 15 year old cousin die from a ricocheted Bullet to the heart several years ago. Extremely terrified of that because I know it does happen, but I’m a petite single female, so have to feel I can protect myself, so my fears have to be set aside, yet still very aware.
What is better firearm or waterleg
I have no idea what this question means.
Did he really stand in the desert for 40 mins?
Not all at once.
Rule one saved my life from death I swear to god.
I can believe it.
can you make a ppsh-41 beginner guide?
The PPSh-41 is a World War II Soviet submachine gun.
No. I can't do a review of that, because I don't own or have access to 70 year old Russian machine guns.
@@LuthorvilleCA Well how about you try to ask the nra about the ppsh-41 or where you can find it
@@papalenin3268 If you want to see a review of the PPSh-41, you can find them on the following TH-cam channels:
*hickock45*
*MoreFPSRussia*
*Forgotten Weapons*
*TAOFLEDERMAUS*
*capandball*
Hope that is helpful and you find what you are looking for on one of those videos.
How do I reload a gun :D
You know what is strange? This video had 91,000 views when you asked this question, and you were the FIRST person to ask.
I'm shocked no one else has ever realized I left that part out.
The reason this video doesn't teach how to load or unload a firearm is because I want viewers to get trained in-person by a professional. So, I excluded loading/unloading on purpose.
Amazing it took 91,000 views before anyone noticed.
@@LuthorvilleCA Haha yeah, I was looking for a comment that mentions it and couldn't find one
You can get a firearm in the US without getting your license or any training prior? Anyone with can afford one can go into a gun store and get one? Interesting
Every state has slightly different laws regarding the process of purchasing a firearm. I don't know the nuances of the laws in all 50 states, so I can't tell you the process everywhere.
Im 12 and i am ready set on joining some branch in the military so I wanted to know the basics about guns so asked my dad if we could go to a shooting range or lessons on how to use a firearm but he said no and was like you are gonna be a DANGEROUS woman *sigh* so all i can do is get to know what i can online :/
Well, that's a great idea. You still have 6 years before you can join. That means when you finally go to Basic Training, you will already know a lot more than your fellow recruits. I think you are very smart to learn as much as you can before you enter the military. Thank you for watching!
Ill find a local class but the NRA! Ha no way. They have gone waaaaaay off the rails. Thanks for the video, good info.
Local instructors can still be a great resource.
What about the human
I'll take an old-school revolver over that tech stuff any day.
I really enjoy the older stuff too.
The Caddyshack reference was gold 😂😂😂
Thank you. I always love it when people get the joke.
It's so crazy to me how, in the US, you can acquire a firearm without any registration or legal procedures, and at pretty much any age. Where I live, not only do you need a goverment-approved license and training, but you must be over 18 to acquire a firearm. Never had school/public shooting issues. Nevertheless, brilliant video! I'm not a gun fanatic in the least, but I like educating myself on all kinds of subjects, and firearms happened to be the interest I landed on haha
That is not true at all.
In the United States, Federal law requires all firearm dealers be licensed and to initiate a background check before transferring a firearm to a non-dealer, regardless of where the transfer takes place. Background checks for firearms have been conducted through the National Instant Criminal Background Check System (NICS) since November 1998.
Most states require buyers be at least 18 years old too.
This idea that anyone and everyone in the United States can just walk into stores and buy guns, as easily as chewing gum, is an absolute lie.
But, thanks for watching and commenting! I'm glad you enjoyed it.
dude..i never touch a gun in my life but I feel like I did learn something today! thanks
You are welcome. I'm glad I could help!
As a British person Guns are Unknown to us but I learned a lot
Air soft check it out
