I think we will never be able to understand the consequences of instant worldwide communication... We just take everything for granted.

My dad went through a similar epiphany. Back in the 50s, he worked on missile systems in the military. I remember one day a few years ago a museum tour show came on the history channel, and they showed the missile section of a military museum. My dad instantly recognized one of the missiles he worked on in one of the exhibits.
I mean think about it. They needed all kinds of weapons in a foreign untamed, wild and dangerous country. Especially moving westwards you never knew when you would encounter the natives that you had to protect yourself from.

Cattleman revolver, carbine repeater, double barrel shotgun
Him talking about the ivory handle is hilarious to me, since the assassin of president Garfield actually picked an ivory handled pistol, with the sole intention that it'd look good in a museum
I love these historical ones. You guys do a great job on these! Modern firearms are cool, but seeing the development from single shot black powder, to cartridges, to multiple shots is really neat! I hope you keep the old school stuff coming!
God bless you all 👍
i feel like hickok is secretly immortal and just shows us his treasures from different time periods
Secretly?
I thought to myself "He didn't even shoot the gong!" Just as you put 2 on it! Lol
H45 videos are better with gong hits
I have to say thank you so much for this video.
I draw book covers for a living and getting a good look at some of the time period firearms for the next cover I'm doing is amazing, as well as seeing the actual sizes in hand and the correct positioning for them being used.
So how are you doing now what book covers have you drawn now?
@@chrisprizzle278 Good, The series is called Luck's voice which is a weird west setting. I also do covers for Binding Words, Dungeon Walkers and a few other series which is steady work.
I love how this old man is on a shooting range destroying stuff and making a living out of it.
“ I have a shotgun, let me prove it”
What a way to start a video
I love watching the seasons change and the years go by with Hickock's videos.
Respect to the camera man for not moving while the guns were triggered.
I love all 3 guns...
I love the revolver, but this shotgun is fantastic!
Hickok is bringing back some of his old memories from back in the day.
That Colt... I just have no words to describe it, it's one of the lovely wepons i've ever seen
Omg...those old grips....beautiful
I love ivory grips on an old colt. I want a 1911 with good " fivory"
That dime is so cool. I feel like fire arms used to have to much more character
This is the guy you would want during a zombie apocalypse
That smoke puff from the black powder is so nice
This gentleman has the style of a favourite high school teacher.. fantastic to watch .
I believe he was a high school teacher
Great video, I love seeing those old guns still putting lead down range. I think if I had my druthers in 1887 I'd be packing a Colt SAA in .44-40 and a Winchester 1873 In .44-40 just for the ammo compatibility. As far as my 3rd option... probably some sort of express shotgun as well.
Giving me inspiration to go start up Red Dead Redemption 2 again.
I was just thinking that 😂😂
Never played any the red dead games 🤣
@@TheRealSephiroth sadge
@@SMBliss oh hellllll no, I know you did not just say that. Everyone is allowed to have their opinions, and my opinion is that your opinion is shit lmao (jokes). Both are great games but red dead 2 is arguably the best, most alive game ever made. Don’t lie and say they aren’t missing anything, they are missing a masterpiece
@@N3XUS_T4RG3T yeah somepeopleacn be dicks about opinions. But the Rdr and rdr2 things are pretty decidable when it comes to the outcome. Rdr2 is a AMAZING game, the scenery and gore the animals and the realism
I got an 1886 Winchester original 12 gauge....and it works... I love it
"by 1887 the age of outlaws and gunslingers was at an end..."
The west had nearly been tamed
1887 doc Holliday was goin out shoeless and jo Jackson was comin into being
