    Now since i did post this in the pit i wanted to have a little fun.

    Ill fully admit i am not his biggest fan. in fact he kind of bugs the shit out of me. But, he is likely one of the biggest "influencers" in the space for the next generation of shooters. so i will give him that and he and his company and brothers probably do more than almost anyone else combined for 2A advocacy and education.

    Personally, i just want him to stay in his current lane. pistols and AR stuff. i dont want any attention on what we mostly do over here.
     
    “Shooter, do you understand the the course of fire?”

    ”Yes”

    ”Beep”

    ”Awe fuck. Where the hell is he going?”

    [Lucas sprints 600 meters, engages each target in the array with a Bill Drill and sprints back, all under the par time.]

    ”Well, that‘s not exactly how it was written in the stage description, but were going to give it to you anyway.”
     
    I haven't watched any of his videos in a long time, but one thing I always noticed is he'd fire really fucking fast showing a drill, but never show his target.

    Any dipshit can pull a trigger fast. I've read several times over the years that he has shot some competitions, and gets smoked and gets pissy because he isn't a very good shot.

    I don't know that to be true, but it does make one wonder.

    I don't really mind the guy but for some reason, watching him shoot just pegs my douche-o-meter. He's probably way better than me but he reminds me of an airsoft "operator". I still can't believe this hobby has gotten big enough that guys like him want in on it.

    Meanwhile ATF is considering banning Jerry's trigger finger and not only does he show his targets, they look damn good.

    I dunno who this Lukas guy is, different audiences maybe?
     
    Lucas Botkin shoots more in one take than I shoot in an afternoon. In fact, I was at the range today for about 45 minutes and didn’t shoot 20 rounds. (That it was 100+F outside and I had misplaced my 1 magazine and was single feeding an AK had nothing to do with it.)

    I’m not going to bag on the kid as he’s going out there and making a career out of my hobby.

    I will say, however, that TRex arms is much too close to that Tibosaurus Rex douche canoe for comfort. I had them conflated for a while.

    Michulek is a trick shooter. He’s a legend, phenomenon, national treasure, and recognized weapon of mass distruction. But, he doesn’t show all of his takes.

    For those concerned, I did find my magazine at the end of my range session. It was in my pocket. FML…

    In his later videos I've watched he does show is targets. Shows his misses, I think couple even off target. He has also done videos without takes.

    He may be easy to make fun of, and not the typical shooter people are used to seeing, but he's done a lot to promote the 2A. I have no idea why he gets shit on so much- besides for being a spazzy autist.

    Can’t he just attend a few matches and learn/adapt the COFs himself instead of asking to be spoon fed to copy other’s work?

    Sounds pretty fucking lazy and borderline unethical to me, not that ethics is a dominant theme in PRS in the first place.
    I messaged him on Instagram and said that exact thing. Go to a match, go to mammoth sniper challenge.

    He responded
