I absolutely loved this video! You guys are awesome. Thank you for the pointers! I definitely need to get better weapons! If you all are ever in Kentucky give me a shout!
There you go, guys! The invitation has been given 😁
As an American, my advice is to either get out there RIGHT NOW (within a month), *_or,_* head there around September... Because once the humidity sets, you'll be miserable. Which only gets worse when summer is in full swing and the temps increase... you *definitely* do NOT want to be here for that! 😅
I live in relative proximity to Scott, the state just south of his, and I'm even on the fence about whether or not even September is too early. 🥴
High humidity, even at 80F (27C), will rob you of energy. Not to mention sweat rolling down your back, soaking your underwear! _(since your watch him, you've seen how wet he ends up lol)_
Can't believe more people aren't begging y'all to collab. I'm actually more into your content, but the algorithm put me on this historical weapons stuff, and I'm not hating it.
I would love to see y'all get together. So far, all of your collabs have been with my other favorite UA-camrs, so they were great by default, but this could be cool as well.
Would love to see you guys collaborate on a video.
YES, please do a collab
Heck yeah I’d love a colab! Do some crazy medieval weapons on modern armor and modern weapons on actual medieval armor!!
So it has begun. The great Guntube-Meleetube alliance of our time.
FOR NERDERY!!!
Dash Rendar has had some fun with it
@@jonathanwessner3456same with skallagrim
@@BridgerArner skallagrim is the true og of swordtube
Good melee weapons can be more expensive than alot of firearm options in the US.
Since shotguns and pistols starts at ~200 and budget grade AR can be had for less than 500.
Would be an interesting discussion based on different POVs and expertise.
Nerdom😂
Somehow the thought of Shad shooting the 4 bore on Scott's range fills me with giggles and other strange emotions ...
Just him holding the 4 bore lol
His pauldrons would crinkle significantly tho
@@KainzMusic not if they are well made reenactment grade pauldrons
That would be like handing a small person a 500 s&w😂
@@johnbaker1901 It's a video we need!
As soon as I saw Scott used cheap wallhanger stuff I knew you would be making a video response.
That sword was a great gag. it took a full minute to get off screen. LOL!
My immediate thought
It happened
This is 100% true. I had to edit myself from railing about Shadiversity and real weapons rather that the seriously frighteningly dangerous larp toys Scott brought out. Still, a great video, though. They really need to get together. Maybe a week on Scott's range and another week with Scott on the Shadiversity range?
Lol, even with larp weapons Scott will destroy someone wielding a real weapon.
Finally the crossover that we wanted.
Shad vs American weaponry.
Have Australians invented guns yet?
@@RachDarastric2 Yeah but they're all dumb.
They have the Owen gun, but then they panicked and banned everything.
@@RachDarastric2 they still got some ways to go on the tech tree, they invested heavily into the licencing path, and respecing is not allowed.
@@RachDarastric2 oh boy have they! Just look at the home-made guns made by the Australian wannabe gang bangers. 😃
It's like watching the wheel being invented all over again, but more explosive. 😂
We really need to get Shad flown out to the states to hang out with Scott, Brandon, Cody, Matt, and Eli
Perhaps an upcoming range day, would be great if he comes on an episode of Unsub just to see Shad and Nick nerd out over history
Yes! All the yes!
This !
Make it a double crossover: Shad brings both his makeshift armor and some actual medieval-grade weapons to test both styles of armor against various weapons (guns vs. makeshift and medieval vs. modern).
But can Shad handle the downside to his superpower?
Oh gosh, UnSub would absolutely make our little Mormon blush.
Good, classy response. This is why the "sword" community is so great
My thoughts exactly… it’s so great see mutual respect as well as some light hearted banter.
Collab with Kentucky coming soon?
Would be a hoot to see if you can fire some of his big guns while wearing armor.
Every sword UA-camr arrives in Texas
A hoot and perhaps a holler?
@@l0sts0ul89pretty sure he live in kentucky 🤔
Several sword-community folks have already hopped onto this. This was hardly unexpected.
Also, the video quickly arrived into my front page.
When we watched the Kentucky Ballistics video, first thing my wife said was where's Shad.
Sounds like your married very well. Good on you, and hope to someday find likewise.
Crossing my thumbs, hoping this leads to a collab
Can't wait to see more from Shad and Scott
I love Kentucky ballistics. Soooo much fun. He goes for the FUN in testing 'equipement', He makes sure not to take him to seriously. So, of course he didn't get 'quality' stuf, more the amazon or even the wish version of medieval weapons. Love that you made sure you got this as well. loved your reaction, seeing you were in on the joke.

You're saying he puts the 'quip' in 'equipment'? 😁
@@Jito463well played
True but since his accident he have deliberately destroyed several weapons in weapon tests. It is still fun but but also serious gun safety warnings.
I've only recently started watching KB content. I find the level of anti-folding table violence distressing. Did a table pinch his finger when he was a child, or does he just not want to have to clean them?
Hi-point is the pistol you were trying to remember. Also known as the "Yeet Canon".
Such an underrated pistol
Yeah, it's heavy, it's clunky but its also dead reliable and unkillable.
Raven or Jimenez arms are so much worse.
@@marvindebot3264 Heavy, unergonomic, and horrible capacity. These days you can get a Taurus or Palmetto State Armory for slightly more and gain so much more quality, tho the Taurus has its own issues.
Saw Skallagrim's response to Kentucky Ballistics video, and now Shad's getting in on it.
It's a great way to start off a Monday ^^
Yoooooo
Ya, I was hoping for this too. Its nice my favorite channels all cross polinate likes and attention.
I'm so hoping this leads to a collab
@@nextcaesargaming5469lmao
I knew the HEMA community was gonna have a field day with that video and I'm all here for it
I'm so glad you guys covered the video without putting down Scott. He seems to be the nicest guy just having some fun.
Glad to see the YT weapons community interact. Modern and ancient weapons. Dash Rendar also did a video worth watching.
Floppy sword has ED
Let us show a bit of empathy and not tease it for the performance issue...
It went for length
This should be a series, "Larp or Legit?". Shorter form content that addresses specific things that LARPers do.
What is fun is Kentucky's and your motorcycle helmet videos came up on my notifications within days of each other.
I commented on Scott's video that he should collab with a HEMAtuber (I specifically named you, in fact) to test swords that aren't crap, and the Kentucky Ballistics channel liked the comment. So, for whatever it's worth, it sounds like a good time to try to get in touch with Scott and see if he wants to talk details.
Secretly Shad only became a sword expert is because that's the best self defense he can get in Australia
Alternate universe where Australia doesn't suck and has guns.
I knew this was coming, i saw that video from kentucky and told myself, watch shad make a reaction to it, definitely called it🤣🤣
Haha i was watching Scott’s video last night actually, thinking what you would say about it. Kentucky Ballistics is awesome and i am so glad you had kind words for him and a friendly review of his video 👍🏻
"We would love to test it!"
Sounds like it's time for a collab with, and a visit to, Kentucky Ballistics :D
Love Shadiversity videos.
👍👍👍👍😎😎😎😎
Hoping that things are turning around for the channel. Keep us posted.
I believe Kentucky referred to it as the "meat tenderizer".
Since I saw you respond to Demolition Ranch doing a similar video, I was looking forward to you doing one for Scott as well.
Scott’s a legit dude, though. He survived a 50 cal exploding in his face. He’s perfectly capable of using real medieval weapons if someone gave it to him.
For sure. Did you see the one where he dressed up like Doomslayer, and nearly punched the jaw fully off the balistics gel dummy? The guy is bossfight sized.
@@fullonsociopath Dude is a beast!
I don't see how almost dying due to a malfunction correlates to being a skilled swordsman...
@@lorenzoniccoli99ln It correlates with fitness.
@@lorenzoniccoli99ln It's how he survived that's important here. That .50 cal blowing up would've killed almost anyone else, but Scott's combination of level-headedness and sheer beefiness meant he not only lived, but was back to (mostly) normal alarmingly quickly.
Now put that add that combination of hilarious strength and a sharp mind with even a small amount of training and a proper weapon. I'm pretty sure he could put a polearm through the side of a goddamn APC if he tried hard enough.
as soon as I saw the sword on Scott's channel I knew Shad had to put his thoughts on it. Glad too see this one actually pop up in my recommendations even after 1 minute released. love you shad and team
I called it. A Shad and Kentucky Ballistic crossover :D
I own over a dozen pistols of various sizes and calibers. Glock, Sig, etc. All the fun bells and whistles. But by far my favorites are the revolvers. No, they aren't the best for self defense or concealed carry, but they are a lot of fun and give you a great appreciation for history. When I was learning about Australian history, particularly your version of the "wild west" era, I was cleaning my .22lr single action revolver and it made me connect with those people a lot more. Guns are not like the movies and being able to hold history, experience history, helps you understand context even more.
Been oddly tempted to get a black powder remington myself, with conversion option too but just cause less water prone. And if supply chain collapses its easier to diy.
I've always felt that the Colt Single Action Army is to Americans what the longsword is to Europeans or katana is to Japanese. And our equivalent to HEMA or Kenjutsu/Iaijutsu is Cowboy Action Shooting.
Cowboys and the Wild West are our mythology the same way the medieval era was for Europeans, and funnily enough, I remember a lot of people commented that sword carrying laws in medieval Europe were very similar to gun laws in the Wild West.
@@gameragodzillaexcellent comparison. I need to get back to the range.
Man it’d be sweet to see the Shadiversity crew join forces with Scott. Like to see Shad and Tyranth shoot the .500 magnum/4-bore. Plus to see Scott the barbarian with true medieval weapons.
Can you imagine that ogre scott swinging the corbin? Pure hulk smash energy as he just bursts whatever armor he hits with it. Beak? He doesnt need a beak, the hammer face will pierce all!
Administrative Results is also a great guntuber who also happens to be getting into archery
That archery vid with Dash was really entertaining. A collab with Admin would be really fun. I can just imagine all the LOTR jokes
I like that Scott has helped give a bit of energy to the classical weapons creator channels
Would not surprise me at all if he did it on purpose. He is a good dude.
I'd imagine there's a lot of overlap in audience. I certainly know I'm one of them.
Hell, part of why I'm fascinated with the katana is less that I'm a weeb and more that quickdrawing pistols (under multiple different scenarios, no less) is an important skill I do practice, which is very much in line with Iaijutsu in Japanese swordsmanship.
Bullets vs medieval weapons w kentucky ballistics
Scott is a real character and loves life. Reminds me of me about 30years ago.
Schola Gladatoria did a similar "response" video. Like with it, I suggest ya'll get with Scott and do some collaboration. Ya'll can "ride the lightning" with some of his firearms, and you can "edumacate" him on medieval weapons. That would be a series of great clips for both channels!
Kentucky Balistics, Skallagram, Shadaversity, trifecta of fun.
Dash Rendar did his response too. His was a good one.
Now we just need to get them all in one place.
I know the channel is struggling and you guys are on the other side of the world, but I bet Scott would do a collab with you if possible!
Scott and the professors of Shadiversity need a meet up!
Loving to see this video topic discussed here at Shadiversity !
to answer the question of poorly made gun equivalent to the elongated flail id say probably the USFA Zip 22
Or the homemade shotgun that Congressman Brandon Hererra made. Or his Luty Fruity Point and Shoo... shit it jammed
@@Daves_Not_Here_Man_76 or the saga 12 he suck a 50 cal. barrel in
Cobray Terminator. That thing is so bad.
Thank you! I saw his video today, and when he brought out that sword... This was definitely needed.
You should reach out to him and try to do a collab.
If it's going to involve flying to US with their equipment, thst might be impossible
Also super happy the algorithm is recommending your videos again. I want this channel to succeed. I’ve been a subscriber for years and want nothing but great things for you
Looks like recommendations is finally doing it's job
I knew it. As soon as I saw his video, I was thinking "Shad will be responding to this, I hope it's soon!"
Shadiversity, Demolition Ranch and Kentucky Ballistics are the only channels I'm subbed to that do videos like this. I also subbed to each channel in that same order, lol.
Wow, this is a FIRST!
I also thought that you were going to be testing modern medieval armor (like what's used in Buhurt), because the thumbnail didn't have time to load.
The primary problem is he uses wall hangers. It's like testing firearms using airsoft replicas.
As Skallagrim pointed out. Even being not experienced with hema and medieval weapons, his form and edge alignment wasn't even bad. His technique however needs work.
@@rain8767 Sooo...Melee guys against gun guys using police training rounds when? Also Shad vs Scott Hema duel for fancies? Would bridge the communities well and bring out responsible gun ownership around the world as we need universal 1A and 2A on all countries as human right. While US has lots and lots of corruption, governments are still bit iffy on going full tyranny, where Aussies already had concentration camps....
I want a KY Ballistics, Shadiversity team up. Shad brings the swords to the US, KY brings the body armor.
I enjoy all of Shadiversity videos
It's a shame that the inability to kill a bunch of birds with guns would make Australia ban them to save themselves from embarrassment.
After seeing Kentucky Balistics video first I knew this video was coming
Yay I got recommended this video!!!! So I am so happy to tell you that tha shadvirsity channel is now being recommended on my UA-cam so I hope it brings you some peace of mind to know that. Awesome videos
Nice, was waiting for this one! I was one of the guys that asked for this
i watch this when he released it and said to myself "Shad is definitely gonna have something to say about this"
Oh my gosh I just recently saw the thumbnail for that video
This is the second video from your channel recommended to me this week. Glad to see you back in the algorithm. Also it's awesome to see one channel I like respond to a channel I like in a different corner of youtube. Thank you for your work.
I love Kentucky ballistics, even in the same state as myself
Edit 1: it'd be awesome if y'all could take a trip to the US of A and see if either demo ranch or Kentucky ballistics can help y'all with the modern bullet proof armour (vests, plates, etc) and perhaps even allow y'all to play with their own toys after a few safety lesson
Imagine if Shad went on the Unsubscribe podcast.
That would be amazing
Just if he went to a Donut Operator/Brandon Herrera range day on Matt Carriker's Desperado Ranch range. Any machine gun you can think of, he could use.
He would be in the same sphere of people.
@@shawn6860 Different vocabulary, but they play nice with that for Wendigoon. 😉
@@paulherman5822 Don't forget Freedo
I’ve never been this early to any shad video, actually really any video ever. It’s only been out for 4 minutes!
Just love it when two of my favorite channels cross paths.
I’m sure the guys would love to have yal in for a range day
Hey Shad and squires, I hope you guys are having a wonderful day. I am really enjoying going through all your old videos back-to-back (just finished "One handed swords vs Two handed swords - REPLY to the Metatron") to fully rewatch, like, and comment. It isn't as often, but I've also been sending some of them to friends when I think they might find it interesting.
I hope things pick back up for you guys and you can continue growing like you were before.
Scott is going to love this video
Kentucky ballistics is a part of a group of American gun and gun related UA-camrs.
Demolition Ranch
Donut Operator
Brandon Hurrera
Fat Electrician
Wendigoon
The Unsubscribe Podcast as a whole
I watch them ALL religiously. Seeing you cover this video is literally my two worlds colliding. It makes me absurdly happy.
Wendigoon, I have to look that one up I watch all the others.
Don't forget Administrative results and Garand thumb,they're also in that group.
@@ZP1993 YES I knew I Was forgetting at last two, but couldn’t put my finger on which two
This was exactly the response I was hoping for!
Soooo when can we expect a Kentucky Ballistics/Shadiversity collab? :D
wow, i actually caught one of these videos early. awesome.
love your videos!
Wild how different the world is. As an American I went to the local shopping mall, went to a sporting goods store there, saw they had a sale on a handgun, bought it and walked out with the gun, 3 mags, and 200 rounds. Total process was about 6-7 minutes in a crowded public area.
Crazy how different America is. Depending on what state you are in that's impossible.
How did you complete a background check in "6-7 minutes"?
@@marvindebot3264 In my state if you have concealed carry license you just show that instead of a background check. Walk in, flash CC license, walk out with new gun basically.
Ahh, fair enough. Makes sense, if you have a CC your background is clear and they know who you are. @@skeleleleton
Been waiting for this video. You don’t disappoint. I appreciate the opening explanation. I’m a big fan of both channels.
Scott is the man! Enjoy seeing the love and respect for the guy. Big ups for seeing, understanding, and rolling with how he brought his sense of humor into medieval weaponry. Cheers!
not only do we get Skallagrim react to it (sadly he kind of skips over the intro skit) but now we have Shad reacting to it and the crew actively watches him to boot. and we have both comment sections begging for a collab which i 100% support.
and the gun Demo USE to rag on is Hi-point. he has since admitted he has started to like them mainly because of the carbine. but yes they are cheap and i have multiple carbines that i love.
I've been looking forward to this. I've been watching you and Kentucky Ballistics for a few years now and I knew you were going to make this video once he uploaded it.
Love it! Thank you for the great content!
Liking and commenting for the algorithm!
KB was hilarious!
So glad you guys made this reaction
This video has synergy with Kentucky ballistics one. While watching his I wanted some context from a medieval expert, and even thought of Shadiversity, but didn't think it'd actually happen. Thank you
The irony that where the prisoners were sent now has some of the hardest anti weapon laws
It is a prison after all
Those weapon laws were enforced by the Emus after they won the war 😂
Shad thanks for making this stuff. Really enjoy what yall do.
Keep the fun going,guys!
Another great Shad video.
Seems like im consistently getting recommended your videos again!
Awesome video, Shad!
I saw the thumbnail for KB’s video and literally went out loud: “uh oh, those are from Amazon”
Still love the guy tho lol
Scott if you are watching....Please set up a Colab with Shad and the boys!!!!
Thanks for this video, guys. Hello from Texas!
I was waiting for this one!
I knew this video was coming, I didn't even need to say anything to make it happen, lol.
We need this collab to make the perfect warrior. Swords, spears, daggers, hammers axes, guns, and ammo. brigantine armor with level 4 plate carriers !
I love that you point out your and Scott's limitations/preconcriptions and all that stuff!
I enjoy these sorts of videos a great deal. I think the dynamic of Shad with Tyranth or Shad with Nate or Nate with Tyranth (forgive me if I’m mispelling) are more informative than all three together. Those are still informative, but more comical and less precise. I could be wrong. But I appreciate this format. Thanks for adding some valuetainment to my morning!
Omg he's actually doing a reaction to it! I was just hoping for this!!!!
Yes once again 2 of my favorite channels intersect. While watching Scott’s video I somehow knew this would come up and I love it!!!
Love this snd both channels!
The fact that he connected a mounted spear throw was badass
I was waiting for this. Good men.
that was great boys, made me get my two best swords from Valiant Armories in Texas and check their profiles out again, i love them and that really was great, thank you both
Just leaving a comment to help the algorithm love the work guys!
I knew you would chime in, deff need a colab with Kentucky, he can show ya some american muscle mate!
