Are you close to I-24? Thought I heard my truck!
Can you guys do one armed in 1987 ???
Hey hickok, we really wonder who you are, can you make a video about yourself?
IS TIME TO STOP XD
On the topic of Yellowstone, Kevin Costner said in an interview that the Winchester that he carries and uses on the show is actually his Father's gun that was handed down to him! I'm not sure how old it actually is, but he did say he got in trouble at school for trying to take it to show and tell! He said it still has some scratches on the butt stock from when he dragged it down the street on the way to school. Loved this video, I really love to see the original firearms with the original black powder.
Which interview was that?
I also inherited my Fathers winchester 94, shoots like a dream and will be handed down someday to my kid
I have my father’s pre 64 Winchester 30-30 made in 1963 and his 1927 Lefever Nitro Special 16ga double barrel.
@@smokinbutts2 I’ve got my great grandfathers lefever nitro .410 double barrel
Just don't get gun tips from Alec Baldwin
The family that donated the 1873winchester I believe made a excellent choice. Knowing your love and care Mr Hickok 45 Sir of guns. When it gets passed on to John I know he will care for it well also,and something tells me when it's your grandson Davies turn to care for it will also get a good home. That gentleman's legacy with his Winchester will go on for ever! Awesome
Thanks. With my already enviable gun collection, I can't say I really deserve to be gifted a valuable firearm like this, but DO know that nobody will appreciate and enjoy it any more than I will.
@@hickok45 how big is your collection, exactly?
@@timmcspillywhop1234 all of them.
Absolutely a great idea. I love the old guns that my wife’s dad has. Her great grandpa used to trade guns for moonshine here in Oklahoma. So we are blessed to hear all the stories that her dad tells.
My father was raised by Stilwell. Born right after statehood. He had some stories. He would run moonshine to Missouri by horseback when he was young. He said it paid better than splitting rails and hauling them out of the woods with horses.
@@kenycharles8600 I was born and raised in Stilwell lol I have lots of family still there.
Called ur father in law fyi
You meant your father In law or idk
"Checking my handy pocketwatch...Yep. It's time to OBLITERATE SOMETHING."
Really need to put together a compilation of these amazing hickok quotes
Time to obliterate something. Starts by smoking some pot. 😅😅
The year is 1887, and I have a shotgun. Haha let me show you
Much love Hickok 45.
As a 25 year old, I've been following you for over 10 years now!
💜💪
Hell yeahaw brashj
Dude same! Proud to say his review of a lil five-seven pistol made me get it as my first firearm ✊🏼
Same dude. Now I have a 72 gun safe packed full.
I’ve been watching your videos since I was 6 years old now I’m almost 17 you taught me so much about firearms I absolutely love your videos.
Much love ❤️
Thanks. That has been our mission in life, to indoctrinate six-year-olds around the world!!! :-)
Glad it worked on you.
@@hickok45 🤣 You young whippersnapper!! Have always loved your dry sense of humor.
@@hickok45 have you made a video on a musket?
@@caiden-_- he has made several
You had this many guns in 1883?!?
Wow, you were one lucky kid!! 😜
Underrated
He wasn’t a kid back then, he already had a son at that time
@@thegreenpinguin6871 he only spawns clones of himself.
Must be rich if that's the amount of guns a person had that time.
Hey Hickok I have been working on testing the safety notch on the Colt Single Action Army. From originals to Modern replicas. Using CAD I did destructive testing. I learned that it takes anywhere between 850 to almost 1000 ft lbs to cause a failure. that is a conservative number. being that we modeled a fairly low grade steel, that wasn't even hardened. In the past I have found that the CAD programs are within 3 to 5% of real life. the weak link is the trigger pin/ screw. It's the most common failure point. While going threw all the military testing documents. It showed there was no failure of the safety notch. The only failure they had relating, was a half cock notch broke. but it was listed as a clear and obvious manufacturing defect. Also the story of the man putting his saddle on and the stirrup hitting his hammer. We discovered that he had the hammer resting on the primer. It was not in the safety notch. I'm still looking for any record of a failure of the safety notch. I haven't found any yet. I will continue to carry five and always advise other people to do so. you can never be too safe. Thought you might find this interesting.
My 13 year old son loves Hickok45. He discovered him before I was even aware of him. That makes me one proud dad.
It’s so nice to see this channel succeed. UA-cam has changed in many ways, sincere honest to goodness content cantered around education on a given topic has largely fallen away to catchy shorts and silly streaming channels.
This channel is proof people still want and always will want good fun content made by passionate creators. God bless y’all
GOD BLESS Hickok45!
Thanks for all the fantastic videos over the years that you & John have done.
I love this themed idea, you should do more of this!
Great show. But last episode they mistimed a shot on the horses
He had done a lot of other periods
Been doin it for years
He has been doing “Armed in [insert year that is somehow significant for the evolution of guns]” videos for a long time. They’re all really good.
You must be new here. Check the backlog brahj
Doc: “Wyatt Earp is my friend.”
Turkey Creek Jack: “Hell, I got lots of friends.”
Doc: “I don’t.”
Love that movie, and that scene in particular
I've always wanted a Colt SAA. I've always loved the way they look and how they sound when manipulating the hammer. Thanks for the video! Keep em coming!
I have been watching 1883 since the beginning. Great series. Almost as good as your videos. You knowledge of history and weapons handling expertise are second to none. Love watching your vids. I understand cleaning of weapons after shooting old weapons with "old timee" ammunition can be a little difficult to maintain your weapons. I love watching your vids. Keep it up Old Man. No disrespect on that. We used to call our CO "old man" when I was in the military.
I love this series! I seen the rifle when you first introduced it to us. Father and Son must of really enjoyed your content to pass this along to you and your son.
It says a lot, you're a national treasure.
Wonderful. I love seeing these, well over 100 years old and they still work perfectly. They may not look perfect, but they've been around and have their own story to tell. As for the black powder....yeah. That stuff is dirty, but it sure is fun to shoot. It's a whole different experience from modern stuff. The first time I tried it, I was hooked. The smoke, the smell, the sound and so on.
I love the amount of effort he goes though to do his videos. It’s so wholesome!
I love these kinds of videos about the guns of the 1800s, the game Hunt Showdown gave me a huge appreciation for these kinds of weapons.
Watched your video on some of the single shot rifles of the time, I still think that the trapdoor and falling block mechanism rifles have something incredibly satisfying about them.
i was legit looking for a hunt showdown comment down here x)
I'm glad to see that Hickok is still making videos 👍👍
Let's all make sure to thank Hickok for keeping these firearms he got when he was a kid all those years ago.
This is the badass old guy in zombie movies who lives alone and is always armed to the teeth.
God Bless him.
Lol you know he was in a zombie movie, right?
@@paulfaggart3423 which one?
@@adonailr9667 Strain 100. Low budget, but he, Matt from demo ranch, and Alex Zedra had a small part in it.
In 100 years someone is going to be metal detecting those hills and say “WTF!?!?!”
So nice of hickock to teach us what life was like during his college days 🙏
That's still an amazing story on how that rifle ended up in your hands it is a sad story but still an amazing story Angel shows you how much your viewers actually care about you as a person we love your content and always enjoy hearing what you have to say
I have a Springfield Trap Door Rifle that was formerly owned by my Father. It looks like a someone made it into single shot shotgun,. I played with it, when I was a kid, and broke the firing pin. I have since had it replaced, but the spring is also broke up. It now is a smooth bore,.410 that will never be used again.
My dad has two Springfield trap door rifles in 45-70. I love shooting them!
Hickok: Walks into convenience store
2 liters: Shake in terror
Loved the show, pard. Reminds me of my granddad and my papa, I've kept it all in my safe and in my heart. Thanks again.
Best part of these history hunks is watching them shoot. Thanks for letting us see them work.
Beautiful weapons! Thank you for sharing them with us.
If Hickok were to be a sheriff back in the day, He would have run out of bad guys to shoot. Love this man
When the 1847 Walker came out,it cost $24, about 3 months pay. Now we can buy one for around $420, 1-4 days pay for many .
Just think that revolver was made in 1883-1883, just imagine the history, the stories the people that have touched that gun and the people that gun have touched. How amazing!
I see a lever action i come running 🏃♂️
"1883" is an excellent series and I thoroughly enjoyed your 1883 shooting presentation. My choices would have been the S&W Scholfield for a pistol and a Henry Rifle for my long gun. Can't beat a short barreled 12 ga regardless of the make. Why the Scholfield - easier to load fast since it is a top break and throws all six (or five) empties at once and you can quickly load it. That speed could come in handy in 1883. Also I like the Henry's tube feed better than the Winchester's loading gate. Personal preference as you said.
Does the Henry rifle have a side loading gate? That's why I would prefer a Winchester 73 (which is also a good movie)
And I am watching this in Ithica NY where that ol 12 Gauge was made.
The Yellowstone reference without the slightest crack…this man is a legend.
As always very nice video!❤️
Love when Hickok sniffs the black powder from the spend shell. The best!
Just imagine trying to re-load that Colt Army while defending yourself at the Little Bighorn .
Black powder makes me feel better about missing I miss the miss. Love the theme and outfit.
Black powder is beautiful. Its smoke, its smell, the tongue of fire when shooting at night. I used this gunpowder a lot when hunting in MT.
Love my stainless old army. Purchased new in 1980 along with Browning 22 auto. Year I graduated high school. First guns I bought. Still have them. Ruger has one off aluminum and brass shoulder stock my late brother fabricated. ❤🙏😿
Once the black powder went off, I was hooked
This is the first time I've seen a cowboy from 1883 wearing earplugs to protect his ears
He was ahead of his time
When i picture what a gun would look like in my head i would see those types of guns.
I think 1911 or ar15
The gun ASMR when he walks around lol. Bullet casings everywhere
as an australian, i love living vicariously through these videos, very jealous of you guys' access to these amazing firearms
C'mon over there's always room for gun people. Cheers
Coincidentally I bought an 1883 Colt .45 SAA civilian (no U.S. stamp on the left side of the frame) a couple of weeks ago in a gun store in Northern California. I was on vacation far from home, but as it is an antique made before 1899, no background check or waiting period. Pay the bill and walk out with it. It is in excellent condition mechanically, but all the bluing is gone. To me it looks great. I do not plan to shoot it, I just keep it on my desk so I can look at it a lot. It has become my most prized possession.
Most all the people in the
region my ancestors came up in
had maybe one single shot
break open hammer shotgun.
Up until fairly recently ( when I
was smaller and younger) the
dry goods store sold ammunition
by the piece. I guess the wealthy
people bought a whole box at once
Thanks for the video
When I saw that 12 ga "rabbit ears" coach gun, my heart skipped a beat. I LOVE those things❤❤❤❤ Stoeger makes a close copy. I saw one in a ""big box" gun shop and I was soooo tempted, but I managed to resist that damn devil standing on my shoulder. It would just have been an expensive toy. No regrets.
Enjoy the wide coverage of shooting subjects and some of the history associated. Enjoy watching and learning by watching your videos. Bet you were an informative and popular teacher of students in your day. Teaching a great, noble and important occupation. I pray somehow our nation can restore for the benefit of our children and future.... the kind of teaching that you provide. Always interesting and informative.
always good to wake up from a hard bender and have hickok videos to catch up with
You are my 2nd dad. I love and cherish every video you and your son put out.
❤️ 🔥 🔫 🔫
I want Both of you two to know y'all are very blessed. Keep your sights aligned and stay straight shooters 💯
Sam Elliott is a great actor. One of the best.
😂😂😂
Best way to be armed! I would say that this would be just fine today as well. Thanks for the video.
I’ve got modern versions of all of them, no black powder for me tho I don’t like to spend more time cleaning then shooting.
@@jaydunbar7538 understand, but all I shoot is blackpowder. It is about all I know.
Smiling!
I watched 1883 and do agree it was much better than I expected. Tim Mcgraw, and Faith Hill were better actors than I expected.
Just saw you were born July 11th 1950, I was born the 19th same year in TX, smiling. Might be something about Guns, Harleys, and the southern way.
Can’t wait for Armed in 10,000 BC:”let’s see if this flint spear can hit the gong”
You know john is living good when he shoots and laughs and smiles. :)
This really made my day mate, you're such an awesome fella!
Much love from a western Australian fan.
Great old guns! Thanks for sharing them with us.
Me I would carry what I do know, a couple Remington 1875, my short barrel (16”) 1892 and my Marlin 1895CB in 45-70, almost forgot my 1887 lever action shotgun. Guess I’ld need my time machine since three of my four are after 1883 😜. 👍🏼🤙🏼❤️🇺🇸🤠
Hickok45: "Yeah, Mr. Cowboy, I don't like you."
Mr. Cowboy: 👁👄👁
Youre Channel is great hickok45 ! You are my mentor. I start the shooting before I see youre video.
A french shooter
As always you are spot on showing people how this country has got to where we are now! The evolution of the gun has changed immensely over the last 139 years since 1883, but as far as times have changed and technology, it really is the same due to the technology and people. You are absolutely,hands down the most wonderful example of American life. The people today are just lost! What I mean by that is simple!, they are attached to their cell phone, they can’t think in a common sense manor and truly can’t survive without big tech. Ok I’ve rambled enough I’m so glad there is someone like you showing people life is simple and not so fast paced ! Keep the videos coming as long as you wish! You are a true American ! Thank you! ❤️🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Great Video I really did enjoy it and thanks so much for the History Lesson on them all!
That iron sight of yours is truly amazing..
Mr Hicock you are the firearms guru/ master. Also one hell of a good shot. Thank you for all your wonderful information and shootin ! Cheers from Canada
In this era of covid, glad to see you are alive and well, sir.
I love the old guns like this, I own a replica 1873 Colt in 357 Magnum it's my favorite pistol. But it's not black powder of course. 😂
Sir you are a gentleman,, love your channel, my GOD keep you in his sight. May you be well.
Wow, 1883 was no joke with the firearms!
A lot of men lost their lives to the guns of that time... nothing to sneeze at.
Been watching this Granddad's contents since 2012, and up until now he's still going strong, he love what he's doing. I wonder what his age now. It seems that he stop ageing since he start his career as a UA-camr.
He's 71 according to google.
Love the Jimmy Lile Bowie Knife. I've had the pleasure of meeting him several times when he was alive and making knives.
I was expecting Hickok45 to break out the Volcanic Pocket Pistol. Lol
Really is very remarkable!! Well over 100 years old and still shoots and most importantly accurately. Really incredible
Since you now have the rifle in 44wcf, you’ll now have to find you a Colt pistol in 44wcf. Gotta have a match.
Very cool to see these in action. So much history.
With all that brass on the ground it sounded like you were wearing Spurs.
The best smell is the paper ammo after you shoot it that is awesome
I watch your videos on my lunch break. I've learned a lot about guns, been a fan for a long while. Love your channel :)
Do a armed in 1996 it’s the year I was born 😎
Thank you for the knowledge.
That vest looks like Dutch Van Der Linde’s vest
Hickok doesn’t step on rocks or mulch or dirt… he steps on bullet casings all over the ground.
I think a revolver and lever gun in matching calibers might be a solid suggestion for survivalists. Bonus if you load your own ammo.
Immediately had me hooked when I saw how you were dressed
"The Duttons resumed their singing career back in Nashville." HILARIOUS!!!!!! LOL!!!
Always a good day when good ole 45 makes a video
Going to my sass shoot tonight. Glad to see you broke out some of the vintage gear. New firearms are nice but nothing beats the historical pieces that shaped the western continents
on the 1883 tv show during the wagon chase scene, Dutton uses an 1885 winchester LOL
when he said “that’s what you get”
i heard engineer gaming
hell with the show 1883. im not playing their games of "buy this package, buy that package". i dont know whats going on with these taylor sheridan snows... being on so many different packages. standard cable, paramount, paramount +, spectrum. 1883 started on one channel and moved to another. forget it. but great video here! ill just watch your videos and some great old westerns in insp and other channels im already paying for. theres plenty of great westerns out there
Great video! Thanks for the history lesson Sir! I wondered if you had seen the series 1883.
The prequel to armored in 1887
Gracias por sus videos tan bonitos señor Hickok 45
I'm in Kentucky Clay county little creek called Buzzard great job Hickok
A good horse, a Colt SA in .44-40, a Winchester in .44-40, a rope, canteen and a bed roll, beef jerky and extra cartridges in saddle bags. Posse, saddle up.
