This is how the life works. Real passion can bring you to an unimaginable places. Growing up on Ken videos and now making them by yourself! I am happy for you! Greetings from a 1911 fan from Czech Republic.
I’ve been lusting for one since 1986. Only saw one in person once at a gun show in the 90s. It was two grand then. Can only imagine what it’s worth now.
I was on the NRA BOD in the 70-80s and served with Col. Cooper. After a Seattle meeting we along with two other members of the BOD went to Yakatat, AK that was operated by Ken Fanning who also served on the BOD. Col. Cooper brought his Bren Ten to hunt brown bear with Ken who was an AK guide. They did not harvest one. I went fishing on that river. He was a wealth of knowledge and glad I had the experience to spend time with him and serve on the BOD.
I didn’t even know I won the VM2 holster. Should have watched this video all the way to the end. Anyway, I’d like to donate it back so that someone else can get the chance to win this mighty fine holster. I have many Milt Sparks holsters to include the famous VM2.
When are we going to see Ken back on the Wilson Combat channel? I own a 9mm M&P with a Holosun optic…. even though I carry my .45 caliber 1911 more… and I was not offended by what Ken said. It’s not like Ken tried to call for a ban on optics and lights. Come back to work, Ken! There are many of us who miss you and Mossad!
The Bren Ten was a Good Idea but the Wrong Execution with many of the features that they put into the pistol. I would love to see someone take the IDEA of what the BREN TEN was supposed to be and build it with all the Corrections that the Original Bren Ten would need to be a SUCCESSFUL Combat Pistol. I believe that the SIG P220 10mm Legion is the BEST 10mm Pistol currently in Production and if the Lessons from the Original Bren Ten and concepts from pistols like the SIG P220 10mm are used to ENHANCE the Original Bren Ten a Hybrid Pistol that has the General Looks of the Bren but has the better Trigger, Reduced Felt Recoil and Improved Ergonomics of the SIG. I would love to see SIG bring back the P227 with a Steel Frame and put the P220 10mm 5 inch Match Barrel and Slide which would transform the P220 from an 8 plus One to a 15 plus One 10mm Auto Pistol.
I've said many times that I am NOT a videographer. I don't even like videography. I'm a one-man show and honestly, I was just filming these videos for other people. I would rather have been shooting with Ken at this point in the day.
@@toneswithtommyrobbie450Ok, Dad. I was giving Eli a little criticism, not asking the Degens for their opinion. And Eli gives me $5 per comment. Dont you have a stepbrother stuck in a couch somewhere?
@@1776_duckDon’t fret that stuff…I’d listen to y’all on a cassette tape recorder with a tornado in the background to get the knowledge and insight. People like Mr. Hackathorn. won’t be around forever. There’s so many things I’d love to ask my grandfather who’s been gone since ‘92 that I was too young and stupid not to back then. Love being able to live vicariously through your content.

Thank you, sir!
Please do more interviews with him , so much knowledge and history
I think there are three or four videos left with Ken...

Love learning from Ken . Got a fair few Wilsons in the safe .
I had Bren Ten in .45acp. It was two toned like Ken's pistol but was marked Special Forces on the slide. Thank you for making this video!

Could listen to Ken yak about interesting guns for hours. Sure hope you filmed a few of these.
It’s always a pleasure to hear Ken Hackathorn talk about handguns! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks guys.

Many years ago I met someone who had the gun and a total of six (6) magazines for it!!
I loved the Bren Ten.
Cool gun but id rather have a high end 1911
YO Ken. Long time no see.
Many have tried making a bigger badder gun than the 1911. This, the Desert Eagle. They all fail.
The 1911 is the Alpha and Omega.
HK45 & Mk23

I don't work for Wilson Combat so I can't really speak for that... but if Ken worked for ACW, I wouldn't have benched him LOL.
Went with a Tanfoglio witness hunter SAO 10mn, and mounted a Cmore red dot on it.
I think it was in some episodes on the show Hunter also, sounded like a 44mag with some tv magic added lol
Dang it, I was one user name away from winning the milt sparks!
I had 7 Bren X's. Quality was very random, obviously had made.

Cool 😎
How about that third gen smith on the table??
Umm... 45ACP is still "The round" God's caliber
Eli, you photography skills are great, but... your videos need work. The light angles & audio quality. Content is great, though.

Eli is the shit.. if you want fancy angles and camera work get you a brazzers subscription son
