------------------------------------------- Remember to check out our video clips on the Hickok45Clips channel: / @hickok45clips
Also, check out the Hickok45talks channel for new “talking” content. / @hickok45talks
Hickok45 videos are filmed on my own private shooting range and property by trained professionals for educational and entertainment purposes only, with emphasis on firearms safety and responsible gun ownership. We are NOT in the business of selling firearms or performing modifications on them. Do not attempt to copy at home anything you see in our videos. Firearms can be extremely dangerous if not used safely.
I'm just glad this isn't about an health issue.
Amen bro
Yup. I almost didn't click on the video.
Yeah. I got Paul Harrel flashbacks there.
@@misterbeepsoh my god same .
When I saw the title I honestly thought it was something like that
UA-cam lets scam-like ads go unchecked, but regulates firearms companies that do business legitimately.
They are definitely a company with great business ethics.
its weird that american society is large is not reflected on YT. Guns sell like hotcakes, everyone (well a majority) have nothing against guns per se..
Its a large group of people with alot of accessible money. Why is YT against that?
just look at the gun shows - a thing wholey unique to america.
But i guess more and more ad money are coming from partners outside US that have a diffrent view on weapons in general. People in many parts of europe does not have access to guns, so they dont understand them. Yes, europeans can have weapons to but its often harder to get a pistol..
I live in sweden and have 4 pistols and 4 rifles. Rifles are quite common here, pistols less so as they are regulated alot harder.
People love shooting and most people afraid of weapons have never held one in their life, so its a irrational fear.
The scam ads being unchecked isn't even a problem.
The problem is that it's a PC only problem (and mobile I guess) and that UA-cam actively tries to disable you from blocking ads.
@@appleleptiker The Brave Desktop browser blocks youtube ads pretty effectively. I don't know about the mobile version.
@howejohn5444 well so far the scam ads have not been selling a product that is used to eliminate classrooms full of kids over and over and over again, so, you're kinda comparing apples to oranges.
Use an ad blocker. they work.
It's all about trying to control us and what we see and hear.
When I started watching this video, UA-cam ran a paid ad for Urban Carry. I guess the ban on sponsorships for gun-related products does not apply to the ads that UA-cam gets a cut of the money from...
This. They’re mad they can’t get a cut of everything. It’s a greedy company unfortunately

Sir, I read "Bad News" and immediately feared a health issue. Very unfortunate about your channel, but I am extremely relieved you and your family are in good health. God bless.
First thing that came to my mind was Paul Harrell, for some reason and instantly clicked really concerned.
ditto
I mean, the health of the channel...
I did the same. So glad everyone is okay.
Goddamn I thought the same
Honestly this platform is so big and all encompassing it should be considered a public forum.

Yup I'm on Rumble
Yes! I love him, and UA-cam right now is just bulls**t.
I don’t think I’ve seen Hickok look overtly pissed off before.
Looks like a dissapointed dad
The loss of a major revenue stream is gonna hurt.
Why wouldn't he be? I'm practically as red as he is thinking about it, and I'm brown. 🤣
@@coopandcarter it’s messed up how people who helped build UA-cam are so easily disregarded because of fkin political agendas. Wild. Epitome of “bad business practice”. How much money has Hickok45 brought in for UA-cam? That # is probably wild. This is gonna backfire on YT for sure.
@@TheRealPots lolz
Insane that Google continues to screw its content providers.
Ya it’s weird that a company that try’s to elected democrats to congress don’t like gun content weird every one knows they don’t why is this so surprising
Not surprising though. Bunch of communist run this site now.
EXCEPT THE 'SAFE' ONES; THE WOKE, ICED CREAM WORLD-VIEW TYPES
Google is corrupt and loves propaganda.
as long as ppl still stay with and support google, why can do whatever they want. good example why an open market with healthy competition is important.
Time to go to "RUMBLE" WHERE THEIR IS STILL FREE SPEECH!
But do we not have to pay to watch things on rumble ? I think that is why I don't have it nowthat and X
there*
I was just going to say the same thing. RUMBLE!!
Thats why Rumble now is under attack here in US and from foreign countries.
You’re definitely one of my favorites and a great ambassador for the gun community. Stay the course sir.
UA-cam needs a competitor. The monopoly needs to end and the censorship needs to stop.
This is such a dumb take, UA-cam isn't a monopoly. It's a form of social media and its far from the only one of its kind.
It’s not a monopoly, also btw there are small competitors like rumble, bitchute, kick, and twitch
@@rl8073 No, its a monopoly with too much control over the site and their creators. A competitor of theirs named Rumble has taken Google to court for using unethical methods to stay on top of the food chain. This isnt even mentioning the multiple years of unnecessary censorship, demonization, lack of accountability over false claims, and zero customer support.
There’s people who abuse the system to send false claims to take down other channels and videos and UA-cam hasnt lifted a finger to problem solve any issues on their platform. It’s an embarrassment for a company to sweep these conflicts under the rug as if it’s not a big deal.
Rumble time
@@Emperormonkeman those are mostly for live streaming so they arent competitors
So frustrating that they don’t do anything about scam ads but constantly go after gun channels that aren’t doing anything remotely illegal
ive literally seen people promoting cp servers and that goes unchecked, but God forbid we show people using firearms in a safe and informanitive manner
The devil doesn’t like guns
@joeyisamazing1091
UA-cam is a scam itself, the music app gets worse and worse too. They push you to buy premium by giving you 2 adds around 3 minutes long each between songs. Insane.
They are scared that they are losing the culture war and gun videos show how fun guns can be if done safely and responsibly
@@madcat3.0 if you see that again, report it to the internet watch foundation
“We aren’t trying to take anyone’s rights” is what they’ve always said.
...while they're working to remove our rights...
Been watching your videos for over 12 years.... to think that all those videos are going to be potentially lost is unreal, insane and inexplicable 😢.
Banning educational videos is crazy, ESPECIALLY with stuff like guns and the necessary safety that it demands. Wow.
What's even better is it's all "for the children that use our site" or "safety" yet there is naked yoga with orifice zoom-ins, women "trying on" see through underwear, and step by step guides to making thermite and expl*sives but no... it's the guys teaching people gun history and safety that're the real monsters.
Well, the best way to ensure safety is when expressing ideas and opinions are left to the experts.
I mean to be fair I'd say you shouldn't even be able to own a firearm if you don't know the basics of the basics about them and need to look them up on youtube, it doesn't however change the fact that youtube outlawing firearms content is baffling
Is that what was said? Sure sounded like they were banning sponsored content from weapons makers?
in 2024 you're surprised?
The censorship is unreal.
They just took down Wafflepwns video. Its harmless pranks, UA-cam gone too far!!! 😡
Fr. Makes me miss 2000s internet.
you can't even post the word g---n. they need to make their own platform and call it g---n. tube
Worst than China 😮
i can't even reply with my ideas to this comment. youtube has gotten to be such a butt platform
Time for youtube to have real competition! Such a slap in the face! A tradition of this nation trying to be eroded for the select few to maintain power and control ! Over speech! Politics! Our rights and liberties as Americans! Where companies lack better judgment other common sense companies come in to fill the roll ! Keep your head up and keep up the worthy fight! ❤️ 🇺🇸 🫡!!

They already shut those down too lol; anything that even remotely disturbs their revenue gets the boot.

The fact that you can't read that google can do anything they want on THEIR platform. Don't let the billion dollar door hit you on the way out. Its so funny walking oldiees come on a platform who tells them they can remove you for anythign they want, bring your own culture and then decided its somewhat censorship. They can make their videos without earning a cent. No one is forced to pay them! Love the fight you greybeards are fighting here, there's hundreds of unmonetized gun channels you hypocrites.
@@Elatenl"free" . As long as you sit thru minutes of commercials for scam products.
Gotta love retroactively striking videos for rules that didn't exist at the time.
Its capitalism. The customers are the advertisers, and we are the product - essentially, the view we give are the product that UA-cam sells to these advertiser customers. Profits control intentions and these advertisers' money drives UA-cam's decision, not us. And UA-cam is a privately own company, so they can ban anyone for any reason, at anytime. They have the final say what videos are uploaded to their platform. It's their product, their platform that they allow people to use for free.

Just cancelled YT Premium. What a stupid policy.
While reading the comments, I realized how many people buy premium. I was sure that only a handful of people bought premium, but it's worse than I thought. I have been on YT since videos were only available in 144p resolution, it was a long time ago, I never even thought about paying for YT. For me, YT has never been paid and will always remain so. And if one day there is no way to watch YT for free, that will be the end of YT for me.

So sorry to hear this Sir, also trying to figure out why I’m no longer subscribed to your channel when I know I have been! Hitting the buttons again!!
I will never pay a dime for UA-cam Premium, blocking all advertisers when their ads come up.
I use Brave browser on my PC, it has a build in ad blocker so I never get any ads whatsoever on YT
everybody install ublock orgin, also is it time to switch to rumble?
Don't lie viktor
@@69MaxVerstappen69 I would suggest a more decentralized solution like Peertube or perhaps LBRY. These services brings true freedom in that information really is never lost or brought down by a single entity, aka decentralization. Dare i fucking say, the people actually watching the video are the ones controlling the content in many aspects and will determine whether it is okay or not, not some batshit crazy neckbeards thinking that they are something. Hope that makes sense :)
I would agree with this, but honestly, it doesn’t feel like blocking ads works. I have blocked those stupid shooter games and the rise of kingdom cringe ads, and yet they still pop up months later. I hate UA-cam so much, if I block a fucking ad that means I don’t want to see it again. But I agree with what you’re saying in general!
Wish we could go back to those good old times when UA-cam was just a site for people to share their hobbies. Not a bloated ad platform wracked with corporate greed.
and DEI nonsense
UA-cam is completely Democrat. Does anyone truly think anything Google would employ a republican?
I just posted a reply in agreement, but UA-cam censored it. ... Oh, the irony!
@@0-by-1_Publishing_LLC
That has been happening to the lions' share of my posts for about a week now. Well, it could be longer; I've only recently caught it.
We can go back to the old times by switching over to a new platform but UA-cam is too strong atm and would be a hard switch even for me
Real sorry to hear this, y’all consistently not only preach proper firearms safety, but show it also! Hopefully this will be short lived
Man I knew that youtube was bad with gun stuff but holy crap bro this a whole nother level
I’m relieved that it is not a health problem
Same, man. The title scared me a bit

UA-cam has been going downhill for over a year now. It's corporate trying to ruin it for the little guy.
We stand by you Hickok45!
"over a year"
Technically correct.
@Del_S I was thinking of commercials and ads. Plus blocking the searches unless you sign up for their service.
UA-cam has been going downhill since before the AdPocalypse, ffs.... get with the times, youngster.
since google bought it
A year? Brother it's been going on much longer than that. This is google we're talking about here.
UA-cam is worse than Twitter during its prime.
nah, its been worse.
Becoming?
Not slowly
Slowly?
IMO, UA-cam has gotten worse since 2013 when Google enforced all UA-camrs to be required to have Google+ (rip) and the goddamn copyright system that just seems to get more and more ridiculous than ever before.
UA-cam should stop renting out movies with guns in them if they don't want shooting on their platform.
This may be all the excuse i need to join Rumble.
I can’t believe youtube is willing to remove this kind of content, now more than ever gun safety and quality education is needed! This channel has taught me a lot and thanks to such an experienced educator I feel I’m a responsible gun owner
Ephesians 1 KJV ✝️🩸
13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

1 Moreover, brethren, I declare unto you the gospel which I preached unto you, which also ye have received, and wherein ye stand;
2 By which also ye are saved, if ye keep in memory what I preached unto you, unless ye have believed in vain.
3 For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:
Romans 2 KJV
16 In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
Romans 5 KJV 🩸
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
Gun tube is a very small aspect of UA-cam. UA-cam hates regular Americans
its incredible, dems used to say we need to be trained, but they are trying to not have people trained. and be lucrative. Stinks that hickock is going to have to do something different to get more money. I wonder if their DPMS videos are about to be removed or have been.
It's not unbelievable that information about the subject would be censored. The goal of a censor is not to benefit the public good.
UA-cam doesn't want you to be a gun owner unfortunately for them.
Remember when their operating principle was Don't be Evil? At some point, they changed that to just Be Evil!
they literally DID change it lol
It's a real shame because I had big hopes for Google when it started.
@@DangerRussDayZ6533 I didn't. I know where they came from. Remember a company called Oingo? Probably not. They were in the gray market consumer data business. They collected consumer data through various means. Some of them very illegal. They packaged up that data and sold it to thousands of telemarketing companies. During the last few years that Oingo existed, they were generating fake phishing websites based on Google searches. I noticed that links to their fake phishing pages would always wind up at the very top of Google's search results. I did a little checking and discovered those fake websites were all being hosted on Google's own servers. Not long afterwards, Oingo changed it's name, then was officially acquired by Google. Oingo and Google were always part of the same organization. Google was their attempt to go legit and operate legally. When Google's revenue outpaced Oingo's, they no longer needed Oingo to exist. Instead of scrapping the company, Google absorbed it. The name change was just to try to hide what it was.
Yeah, Google was an awesome company pre 2014 it feels like, with the Google Nexus phones being open source and easily able to install custom roms (still possible with the pixels) such as grapheneos for maximum security and no worries about government tracking to UA-cam being the best when it comes to free open media and don't forget Google search itself as an amazing search engine. Google has really fallen down for the best open ended company to wanting be another apple and Microsoft closed off environment

Censorship of freedom of speech rights IMHO.
I remember when UA-cam was just everyday people uploading whatever they wanted to upload (as long as it wasn't violence, nudity, etc.). Now it's a platform ran by soulless corporations dictating what is uploaded. I don't see anything changing unless UA-cam has a direct competitor.
It's the same sad story. A company is started by people with a passion for doing something, and then it's taken over by people with a passion for making money.
The problem with competitors is that they need backing. The alternatives to Facebook, UA-cam and Google are absolute garbage, because nobody is willing to deal with shitty functionality for a while until they get adopted by a big user base.

@@AvidListener-do9vh fair point. However, they reaped the benefits of 7+ million people regularly visiting this site for this content, and now they want to retroactively stick it to them? They are f'ing the people that made them what they are. Sure that is their right, but it doesn't paint a pretty picture of the company. If they weren't a monopoly they'd be history already I think.

They're just on a quest to end all gun content. Crazy. This is the most family friendly gun channel out there.
they have been using all profits from gun channels to fund donations to gun control packs.
And demolition ranch
Family friendly gun content
Fucking lol that’s great
@@Chunnibyoubaka You should check out Autumns Armory, 12 year old girl and her dad bonding over guns..It'd REALLY blow your peabrain!
@@Chunnibyoubaka Yeah, I remember when GI Joe was considered family friendly. Oh wait, it still kinda is.
About 10 years ago, around the time of the "SAFE Act" I downloaded every one of Hickok's videos, knowing someday they would come for the content. And here we are.
Good thinking, People should do their best to archive all of this content.
delete and boycott

DOCUMENTATION IS AMAZING
Rumble is the place to be
Google and UA-cam got together called our current administration asking them, tell us please, what can we do to harm our business?
This is so ridiculous, they don’t do this with any other industry. Try to stay positive Hickoks!
Not even the porn industry
@@anoobius3330ooohhhh, scary immoral porn. I'd rather be attacked with porn than a gun.
Totally not with any other!
They're doing this across the board actually. Vtubers, podcasts, music channels, tons of channels are getting taken down.
No other industry are killing children. The leading cause of death for children is gun deaths…
Policies like this is exactly why I canceled UA-cam premium.
what do you use now? I really can’t stand ads
Good good
It's called an Ad Blocker
What is UA-cam premium? Been on here since the beginning of UA-cam. You mean people pay for this website?
@@cranklesnacks brave's built in blocker is good

“The further a society drifts from the truth, the more it will hate those who speak it.”
And how exactly does this quote apply to the situation?
@@ManateeMentality let me help you dummy -- the 'truth' is that mankind has an inherent right to defense, and firearms are the modern functional cornerstone of that natural and codified right. Diminishing the ability to express and educate around that right represents an intrinsic stifling of a critical aspect of 'truth' about being a human. that should get you started but I realize you might still not understand

@@sukhvindermangat1087 State ownership is a double edged sword, but its pretty obvious that letting corporations go wild the past 40 years has had consequences that nobody in human history could have predicted. Just comical amounts of wealth that bury the actual wants and needs of everyday people.
Yeah, who the fuck actually believes in Globe Earth?
That's it. UA-cam endorses nudity, copyright infringement and false advertising, if and only if, they're being paid.
Well, that's the free market. They can do what they want.
🤡 @@sameermohideen4913
@@sameermohideen4913 people forget free market capitalism goes both ways.
Rumble is an alternative
Where is this nudity you speak of? Asking for educational purposes :)
I guess it's a good thing we live in America and have freedom of speech...
UA-cam Gestapo. “We’re telling you we know what’s best for you, don’t believe your lying eyes!”
Piece by piece. They take a piece, users get upset at the new changes, then it settles to become the new "normal". That's the plan, take a little bit at a time because they know they can get away with it. Taking from the people that helped them build the platform to the level of success it stands at today. I've watched this channel on and off for YEARS, well over a decade and will always support you guys.
Best comment so far
And Piece by piece we, the people allow it through cowardice....
remember how people said 'slippery slope is a bad argument'? whelp, here we are
Less and less freedom
It's a methodical, but proven, systematic M.O. to wrest away civil liberties and god given rights which level the metaphorical playing field on which Corporations, Governments, and Individuals all stand upon. When in history, exactly, did a change in status quo become synonymous with set precedent? I doubt to be discernable, but any entity which stands to gain leverage and influence when implemented successfully is nigh on guaranteed to attempt maneuvers of the sort. Look at the entire SARS-CoV-2 debacle, when a decade and a half prior SARS-COV-1 was hardly any concern outside of SE-Asia mainly because it wasn't conflated to purvey urgency as if Humanity hadn't existed with Coronavirus', Rhinovirus', Enterovirus', and Adenovirus' of innumerable variety for thousands of years without any catastrophic loss of life. As if the evolution and adaptation of human immune systems had never existed, the opportunity was seized to incite panic and hysteria, to guise a relinquishing of freedoms as a good-natured measure to protect not only the individual, but society as a whole, to appeal towards those who are altruistic in whatever motives that compel them. Cynicism has never been a more beneficial character trait than current day. Perhaps foreshadowing the inevitable cyclical pattern of Civilization, and all things in life in that regard. Ashes to Ashes, Dust to Dust...
I have learned so much from this channel. UA-cam needs an actual competitor that can deliver a platform where freedom is celebrated.
Such a competitor already exists; RUMBLE.... steadily becoming a home for those fleeing Marxist DemonRat censorship.
There are competitors: Bitchute, Rumble, Odysee
@Elhardt I wouldn't consider those mainstream competitors though, at the end of the day UA-cam has always been "that" platform and it doesn't appear to be changing anytime soon so unless everyone stands together unfortunately we're going to have to continue watching them completely destroy channels that push certain "agendas" they don't agree with.
There are altenatives, but you would have to pay to watch the content. People want stuff for free. They could start a website and only post on there, but they won't as it wouldn't make them any where near the money UA-cam generates for them. UA-cam is a business, not a public service and as such can decide who and what is on their platform. I'm not anti-gun or pro-gun, left or right. You just need to understand a bigger picture than one channel, YT won't make much of this channel so why would they care?
@@Bubbles--- It's not an agenda, that's the conspiracy rising up in you. Do you think it is fine to have a YT channel dedicated to making bombs? Do you think there would be any political backlash on YT if a person watching the bomb channel decided to kill a bunch of people with a bomb they made from a YT channel? Maybe the politicians would go after YT just a little bit? I'm sure YT gets put under considerable pressure from politicians to remove certain content after gun related events etc.
New laws should be passed protecting Americans rights within platforms as well, to where companies are unable to censor or clamp down on creators that do not fit within their agenda. Call it a "digital bill of rights" or something like that. Make these laws apply to all aspects of the media and the digital world including the flow of private data. Make it universal across all countries with internet and have serious organizations enforce it. There has to be some legal force to prevent stuff like this from happening.
Censorship is treason.
Canceled my premium.
Lmao why did you pay for UA-cam in the first place 😂
Ad blockers FTW
@@PatrickArcatobecause you dont get ads and you can get free shows and movies
The fact that you bought premium to begin with is part of the problem.
