I used to think I needed to practice unlocking my bedside gun safe until 1 day I had a blinding flash of the obvious. Just open it when you climb in bed and close it in the morning. By the time they set off all the noise makers and get upstairs, I've already got a bead on them! Problem solved!
If I was a store manager and people wanted to make youtube videos about all the cool stuff you could buy there, I'd be happy to have them do it! It's a freakin' free commercial for the store!
Right? I need to go get some paracord anyway, now I have a whole other list of stuff to grab. Those mechanic's picks, in particular. Those are a steal!
You've got to be careful with the HF "brass" brushes (as well.as other Chinesium "brass" brushes.) Sometimes they are brass-colored steel bristles. If you are counting on soft brass so, for example, you can attack rust spots without taking off the bluing and it's steel instead you might be doing some damage. Check those bristles with a magnet and if that "brass" sticks to the magnet it's really steel. A lot of "brass" fittings are really steel with brass coating. Many hinges, knobs, screws, and even those grommet kits can be steel imposters that will rust and stain your projects. Chinesium sneaky bastids.
HF should seriously get into tools specifically for firearms. They could probably deliver some cost-effective items and be real competitive to companies like Real Avid or Wheeler, etc.
@@actionjksnthey have a Quinn model but if you don’t want to go with that one I went with a neiko model I ordered that does well. Whichever one you go with make sure they have the certification tag inside showing how accurate it is. Think my specific one was within the range of 1-3 in lbs.
Speaking as a gunsmith, the best thing I've found is the transfer punch set. Besides their intended use, they make great mandrels or pin stock, they're fairly soft and can be ground or turned to suit. This set is cheap, you can't buy the materials for the price. I always have at least 2 sets on hand.
Are you certified? Done any online classes or anything like that, or just learned hands on? I'm super interested in becoming a gunsmith and online classes (Sonoran desert institute) look cool but it's nothing but mixed results lmao. Not about to pay for a degree that won't do a damn thing for me if I can help it🤣
Best comment 😂 Although I'm surprised any employees were at that Harborfreight... I swear every employee is addicted to p0rn and hiding in the back, or they have a very successful organ harvesting scheme... I swear you could roll out half the store using carts, dollies, and moving equipment sold at the store before anyone may notice 😂 Although that sucks and I'm pretty sure theft (along with inflation) was a large part of the price increases and fewer unrestricted 20% off coupons 🙄 What kind of methhead is stealing items with the absolute lowest resale value?! (I guess the ones that get it away with it multiple times from the same store and location without getting caught 🤦♂️) I've been to maybe ten Harborfreights and only 2 actually have had great management and employees that keep everything stocked on the shelves while maintaining correct inventory to match their website... Most seem to have the absolute worst management I've ever witnessed. Also shout out to "Rural King" it's like a Harborfreight/Tractorsupply/auto parts store on steroids that also sells name brand tools in addition to HF priced products, plus free popcorn, coffee, AND guns, ammo, and some accessories... Snagged a 2 rifle AR height 42" heavy duty nylon padded soft case with 2 molle mag pouches, a permanent padded zipper compartment and a safariland 7TS holster for less than $100 😂 Sadly they are pretty rare to find, all on the east cost side, (west coast and middle flat county have their own equivalents with various names) basically a cluster up the map from central Florida to Ohio with a few random outliers... I wish my town had one, but we do have some cool family owned hardware stores that have a similar "we sell everything men want besides women" inventory 😂 One has a complete knitting/sewing/upholstery section next to the home furnishings if you already have the woman and need to distract her while you look at everything else 😉
Good stuff. For shits and grins I picked up a couple of their 50 cal metal ammo cans a few years back. Did the whole test for leaking by submerging them in a bath tub, beating the crap out of them etc. They hold up really well and stay dry.
I grabbed one of those big apache 9800 cases on black friday for $100 and a few of the metal ammo cans for $10, definitely some pretty solid stuff for the price.
The only problem with Apache cases is that pick apart foam. It comes apart into 1/2" cubes after a couple of months. Other than that they are strong and the weather seal works well.
... dude, a few years ago my wife got for me the ten gun safe you shown, she got the manager to get one for her. He came back saying that model on the floor was the only one they had, so he sold it to get half off - yeah one ninety nine! I love it, it has not only the electronic key pad to open it but also an emergency key to use if the battery dies ...
I bought those super cheap earmuffs. They were very ineffective until I modded them. I took them apart and put some really good high density foam inside and used some liquid rubber. I already had the stuff laying around so it didn't cost me anything and they work really well now. The knockoff pelican cases are very solid. I have a small one and a larger one. I've got coupons for the cheap little ammo boxes and got them for like $3 each. You can use one coupon for a bunch of the ammo boxes. Make sure that the rubber o-ring is in place correctly and it helps to glue it in place so it stays put. Every time you get something that has those silica packs in it throw them into the ammo boxes.
I literally just found out they opened up a Harbor Freight in my city less than a mile down the road from my job... I knew I was missing out but I didn't know I was missing out THIS much! Thanks for the video, doing the Lord's work out here. EZ subscribe! 🙏
I use the clam shell gun safe for my CCW in my car and for flying. I purchased and used the punch set to do work on my M1A. Pics are good for the price. The plastic ammo cans are good for the price but can have a poor seal if stacked or pushed together.
There plastic ones also have weak handles. I found I cannot fill them with rolled coins, loose pistol rounds or lead ingots, because the handles break. The Flambeau ones are much better made.
The plastic ammo cans and the "dri box" with the removable tray are great. The dri box is great for cleaning kit components. Also I have one of the HF wooden machinist tool boxes which is great for keeping gunsmithing tools like punch sets, pics hex bits and things like magnetic levels or torque drivers, trigger pull gauges and so forth in.
Harbor Freight batteries actually came out 2nd in a test where a load was put on different brands of 2032s. Just behind duracell. I buy harbor freight batteries exclusively.
Great advice. We think alike. I went there a few years ago for cheap do-dads and came across the ammo cans. I walked out with alot of inexpensive shit that is still being used today. If you're starting out working on your own guns or machines, mistakes happen and stuff breaks. No loss with the cheaper tools.
Ive had 4 for several years. $39 if i remember correctly and 15 for the 2 small ones. I keep a digital camera in one on patrol and my garmen in the other
I use that bag as a range bag as well. Cleaning kits, ammo, hearing/ear protection and whatever pistols I’m taking all go in. Makes a world of a difference grabbing a bag that’s pre-kitted than trying to remember everything then get to the range and realize you’ve forgotten ammo. This system is undefeated. Get back from range day and replace anything that needs it and throw the bag in the corner until next time.
Outstanding! I literally have purchased 80% of the items you just presented in this video and will likely get a few more of them in the future. Great endorsement, even if the store "clerk" doesn't understand free marketing. Well done, man!
They have all the tools you need to build/mill an ar lower or p80 Glock. Tools to stipple your pistol grips, punch sets,mallets,vices,all kinds of fun shit. Drones for moving target practice.
Yep he didn’t get a chance to dive deeper into the electronic stuff like dremels, engravers, heat guns, soldering irons etc. but it’s a lot more there for sure
You walked right past the auto mechanics long reach clamps! Those things are great! Even when you're not doing gun related stuff. I have pulled obstructions out of drains, garbage disposals, a kids tooth once, endless uses!
The yellow ones make color less apparent, but accentuate any movement in your field of vision. that color also increases you time of vision in predawn or post sunset times. I know truck drivers who use them at low light times of day to make movement and objects more visible.
I've been a deputy/ officer for 31 years! I don't work the street any more but i still carry a lot of the stuff you named in my unit ! I have the Hardy gloves( mechanic,leather work, welding) , the cloth tool bags, the flashlights( I have rechargeable but like to have a couple for battery back up), ammo cans, 4 pound sledge, bolt cutters and pry bar! I enjoyed your our video it was very informative!
When you trust your hearing protection to harbor freight you deserve what you get. I said WHEN YOU TRUST YOUR HEARING PROTECTION TO HARBOR FREIGHT YOU DESERVE WHAT YOU GET!
Honestly one person can’t do this video. He just gave us like a starter kit but it’s way more he didn’t even get a chance to get into so do your video as a part 2 to his so to speak. Just pick up where he left off
Grew up on Long Island. This is normal New York conversational talk. Don't know why some people get upset over this. Don't live in New York anymore but the wife and I still speak the native language.
HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Over the years I've bought almost all of this stuff. I still have a lot of it. I built an AR pistol kit using an Apache case. Lower with 7.5 inch 5.56, 300 Blk and 7.62x39 uppers, all in a handy case. They used to have a hydraulic press that was useful for bending AK flat receiver plates. All the tools for milling 80% AR receivers, I got there. It wasn't as well built as the expensive tools, but it worked, and was cheap enough to replace when needed.
I’d recommend anyone new to building to buy from hf. There’s nothing worse than getting all the top of the line stuff when getting into a hobby then finding out you actually don’t enjoy it as much as you thought you would and being stuck with a pile of expensive memorabilia. And the best part is it’s a lot of the cheaper stuff that still work if you decide to continue so you’ll only have to upgrade a few things
Retired/disabled LEO and are people aware that Harbor Freight has a policy to not allow ANY persons with firearms in their store to shop? Today I went to pick up some things that I called a head for and were waiting for me at the register (thanks Dana) and I usually get a shopping cart and then place my bag which has a firearm and identification and glasses and things in it in the cart. I go in the store and shop, pay and leave. The store had all the shopping carts outside locked up so I went in and asked if i can take a shopping cart from the store to put my bag in it? A women came over and asked what I wanted to do and why etc? I told her and that I am a regular customer. She said hold on then went away coming back shortly saying "no, the manager Dennis said no you can not use a shopping cart and can not bring your bag in the store". I asked for Dennis to come speak with me. He said he was a "US Marine" and has guns also. I said okay what is the problem here? He said he did not know what the store policy is (btw there are no signs indicating the policy, I took photos) but that because "he knows that I have a firearm in my bag that I can not use a cart or bring my bag in. I said that I also have a side arm currently while talking with him and then he looks at me and said "well I can't tell so you could come in but no bag or cart".! I pointed out that there are no signs with such a policy on the door and many people are just walking into the store with bags and even a guy walks his scooter in the door. Dennis said let me go make a call and I will come back and see you. I said okay and in the meantime I will call the Police because I would like to file a complaint and have a record. The police never came after 2 hours and Dennis never came back to talk with me. I think I understand why Harbor Freight does not reveal their policy. Mostly men shop there and the men are usually just regular guys who like tools, cars, guns and such. Posting an anti 2A policy on the door is not going to help them with their sales. It seems like their policy is if they don't know about it and don't tell customers that is good enough. I would bet though if anything ever happened in the store they would be doing quite a dance claiming they have a policy of no firearms. As for Dennis the "US Marine". Sad sell out and no honor claiming he would return to talk. In summary I am not saying people should not shop at Harbor Freight but when I can avoid it I will. China has enough of my money anyway.
It's not just the gun world that's expensive, it's everything now. Food, fuel, auto parts, tools, outdoor power equipment, bills, utilities, electronics, insurance, real estate, you name it!
The pick set is really god and universally handy. I always leave with a parts tray and pick set. I'm thinking about getting the smaller of the two shot polishers they sell. Still waiting for a store in San Mateo County so I don't have to cross a bridge to visit a store.
@@bigdickballistics I used to, I'll look it up when I get home. I have it written down there. The big difference is that they paint the cans at harbor freight versus bake on the finish for the military.
Good ideal I go there myself. I'm getting the US General 15in End Cabinet Series 3 & The US General 22in End Locker Series 3. its just like a gun locker.
I'm a cheap bastard. I've used a 15 year old HF muffs with some 3m plugs from home depot. The muffs are pretty low pro. Worked fine for 556 and 308. I dont see them at HF anymore.
Great video! I wasn't aware that Harbor Freight sold firearm accessories. Funny part is, early in the video I was wondering if you cleared recording in the store with management- but uh oh. lol
It's a business that has their own cameras recording you and they are open to the public so there is no expectation of privacy. Funny that he had been walking around the store for how long and nobody said anything to him but when he gets to the front of the store they give him hassle.
The ending with the HF manager was freaking hilarious! I watched this at least three times because of the one liners if you wanna goh fuul rehtard for foir nyoty nyonine! Instant sub broski!
Big D, I like your video. I have purchased several of the items you featured. That magnetic parts dish, for example is just one of those things that once you have one or more, you’ll ask yourself why you never got one sooner. I have bought some of the cooler looking ($3.99) safety glasses. I should check the ratings. Never paid attention to the ear pro, but…. I recently started teaching CCHL classes and will say that Harbor Freight Gun storage products are going to appeal to a lot more people who live pay check to pay check but still want to be part of the 2A community not to mention have the ability to defend themselves and family from the garbage the world is currently dragging in. Not to mention my own bottom line. So I appreciate your video and certainly hope that the revenues at the store where you were filming increase and the manager who kicked you out (and area manager) is aware that Big D sent ‘em.
@donaldoehl7690 in my experience the magnetism that happens to the small parts and tools isn’t an issue unless you’re dealing with something electronic.
• attenuation for muffs should be a minimum of -28db • attenuation for incertible protection should a minimum of -30db When used simultaneously -31 or more can be achieved.
@@bigdickballistics Picked up the ammo can and a pair of glasses too lol. The glasses weren't big enough to fit over my regular glasses, but the set of ears worked great! I have some range footage on my latest shorts of some 3D printed guns I finally go to fire when I went to the range.
I might have missed it but I didn't see a reference to the Bauer 4 Pocket Drill holster. It is admittedly big but that can solved by installing rivets or snaps to hold the holster closer to the firearm. It would make a good Pickup holster, or - and this is the best use - to hold a HDP50 .50 caliber pepper launcher 'pistol,' which is a beast. The secondary pockets can hold the CO2 cartridges and spare rubber/powder/pepper balls. And - get this - it costs $9.99!
Well, that manager is not a good manager , boss man, better think twice on who they hire lots of money there lost by kicking you out . because you just reached out and advertised for harbor freight to thousands of humans which brings revenue to Harbor freight., thanks buddy , 🤙
the pick set is more convenient then you think i keep like 3, 2 for work and 1 at for they are cheap and handy for specific uses when. the 2 for work because you will snap them sooner or later from repeated use and the home one seldom gets use but handy to keep around or too swap in when i run out of work picks.
HF is where I get walnut medium for tumbling my brass. Way cheaper than ordering it online and no shipping fees or wrather damage from sitting on my front porch 😅
I have and use an Apache pistol case. Very nice sturdy case. Last fall flew to Florida from Minnesota, checked in my pistol in the Apache case. Got to hotel in FL, tried to open the case, couldn't do it. Closed.the case in MN (1200 ft elev.), tried opening on FL at sea level, the pressure squeezed it shut and the air release valve does not work on the case. The case is for sure air tight and waterproof. Had to stick a knife in between the rubber seal to get some air in there,.then it opened up.
That first one,I got that same ammo box,does as intended. Pretty good. Hold about 20-25 boxes of 50 rnds of .22 CCI . Need to check out if my local harbor has some flags. they're always out .
Just had a HF open about 4 miles away...and conveniently located near Tractor Supply (another great place to find good stuff at good prices).....Ill be going to the HF Soon ! thanks !

This is excellent info. And, the best part is that you don't ramble on and on. You go straight into the interesting info. Thank you sir.
Ty much!
Careful with those "brass" brushes the "brass" changed color and was magnetic. Unfortunately i found that out alittle too late
I found them to be extremely soft.
Yep only grab the nylon
I bought that spotting scope. It's a real piece of shit.
I have no doubts
I once bought some air tools at HF. They broke almost immediately. If they sell different grades/prices for same items don't go cheap!
Thing is you could just take it back though instead of taking the same gamble on Amazon and waiting a week for a refund.
I bought case tumblers and ultrasonic cleaners for my reloading.
I can’t believe I overlooked that! Yep I get my media there as well!
@@bigdickballistics
They kicked you out before you got to that aisle. Understandable . 😁
The rock tumbler makes a great ball mill, also. I use it with 14mm florists marbles from dollar tree.
This was super informative. Straight to the point. And relatable
Ty much!
When you trust your hearing protection to harbor freight you deserve what you get.
I said WHEN YOU TRUST YOUR HEARING PROTECTION TO HARBOR FREIGHT YOU DESERVE WHAT YOU GET!
STOP YELLING AT ME DAD!
Hf sells 3m as well as other big brands 😂
Lol, I have been planning a Harbor freight shopping video for gun stuff…….you beat me to it!
Great minds think alike! Do it either way!
Honestly one person can’t do this video. He just gave us like a starter kit but it’s way more he didn’t even get a chance to get into so do your video as a part 2 to his so to speak. Just pick up where he left off
I actually bought some of their ammo cans ad cleaning brushes. Place is great for everything else too.
100%!
Grew up on Long Island. This is normal New York conversational talk. Don't know why some people get upset over this. Don't live in New York anymore but the wife and I still speak the native language.
🤙🏻
What's also funny, you save thousands buying marine equipment there. Waterproof insulated gloves, $6.00. West Marine, $49.99
HAHAHAHAHA!!!! Over the years I've bought almost all of this stuff. I still have a lot of it.
I built an AR pistol kit using an Apache case. Lower with 7.5 inch 5.56, 300 Blk and 7.62x39 uppers, all in a handy case. They used to have a hydraulic press that was useful for bending AK flat receiver plates. All the tools for milling 80% AR receivers, I got there. It wasn't as well built as the expensive tools, but it worked, and was cheap enough to replace when needed.
I’d recommend anyone new to building to buy from hf. There’s nothing worse than getting all the top of the line stuff when getting into a hobby then finding out you actually don’t enjoy it as much as you thought you would and being stuck with a pile of expensive memorabilia. And the best part is it’s a lot of the cheaper stuff that still work if you decide to continue so you’ll only have to upgrade a few things
Big D comments had me cracking up, not your average tool video haha you just got another sub
🤙🏻🇺🇸🤙🏻
Retired/disabled LEO and are people aware that Harbor Freight has a policy to not allow ANY persons with firearms in their store to shop? Today I went to pick up some things that I called a head for and were waiting for me at the register (thanks Dana) and I usually get a shopping cart and then place my bag which has a firearm and identification and glasses and things in it in the cart. I go in the store and shop, pay and leave. The store had all the shopping carts outside locked up so I went in and asked if i can take a shopping cart from the store to put my bag in it? A women came over and asked what I wanted to do and why etc? I told her and that I am a regular customer. She said hold on then went away coming back shortly saying "no, the manager Dennis said no you can not use a shopping cart and can not bring your bag in the store". I asked for Dennis to come speak with me. He said he was a "US Marine" and has guns also. I said okay what is the problem here? He said he did not know what the store policy is (btw there are no signs indicating the policy, I took photos) but that because "he knows that I have a firearm in my bag that I can not use a cart or bring my bag in. I said that I also have a side arm currently while talking with him and then he looks at me and said "well I can't tell so you could come in but no bag or cart".! I pointed out that there are no signs with such a policy on the door and many people are just walking into the store with bags and even a guy walks his scooter in the door. Dennis said let me go make a call and I will come back and see you. I said okay and in the meantime I will call the Police because I would like to file a complaint and have a record. The police never came after 2 hours and Dennis never came back to talk with me. I think I understand why Harbor Freight does not reveal their policy. Mostly men shop there and the men are usually just regular guys who like tools, cars, guns and such. Posting an anti 2A policy on the door is not going to help them with their sales. It seems like their policy is if they don't know about it and don't tell customers that is good enough. I would bet though if anything ever happened in the store they would be doing quite a dance claiming they have a policy of no firearms. As for Dennis the "US Marine". Sad sell out and no honor claiming he would return to talk. In summary I am not saying people should not shop at Harbor Freight but when I can avoid it I will. China has enough of my money anyway.
Thank you for your service
It's not just the gun world that's expensive, it's everything now. Food, fuel, auto parts, tools, outdoor power equipment, bills, utilities, electronics, insurance, real estate, you name it!
💯
Bidenomics 😢
Those cases are great! The pistol cases and the rifle boxes are great!
The pick set is really god and universally handy. I always leave with a parts tray and pick set. I'm thinking about getting the smaller of the two shot polishers they sell. Still waiting for a store in San Mateo County so I don't have to cross a bridge to visit a store.
Fun fact, the people that make the harbor freight steel ammo cans make the ones for the US military.
Cool ty for the info, do you know the name of the manufacturer?
@@bigdickballistics I used to, I'll look it up when I get home. I have it written down there. The big difference is that they paint the cans at harbor freight versus bake on the finish for the military.
Good ideal I go there myself. I'm getting the US General 15in End Cabinet Series 3 & The US General 22in End Locker Series 3. its just like a gun locker.
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Don't forget the cheap-ass spring clamps for quick attachment of targets.
Good one brother totally overlooked that, I have a dozen and use them often!🤙🏻🇺🇸👍🏻
I'm a cheap bastard. I've used a 15 year old HF muffs with some 3m plugs from home depot. The muffs are pretty low pro. Worked fine for 556 and 308. I dont see them at HF anymore.
They also have that lawn ornament kinda section,I enjoy buying that kind of stuff when cheaper than normal,and blasting it at the range!
They do?! I’ll have to look and see!
From Canada, First time seeing your awesome channel, lots of good info, keep it going !... Stay safe Brother.
Welcome aboard!
Great video! I wasn't aware that Harbor Freight sold firearm accessories.
Funny part is, early in the video I was wondering if you cleared recording in the store with management- but uh oh. lol
I don't know why they would mind him filming in there. But people get weird when cameras come out.
It's a business that has their own cameras recording you and they are open to the public so there is no expectation of privacy. Funny that he had been walking around the store for how long and nobody said anything to him but when he gets to the front of the store they give him hassle.
RESPECT!
FIRST VIDEO EVER,
GOOD SHIT. IM SUBBED NOW!
Great video...thanks and love the humor!!!
Ty much!
The ending with the HF manager was freaking hilarious! I watched this at least three times because of the one liners if you wanna goh fuul rehtard for foir nyoty nyonine! Instant sub broski!
You would think that they would love the free publicity and give you a discount instead of kicking you out.
I’ve gone back multiple times already and they totally forgot who I was haha
@@bigdickballisticsDeep down she wanted you to
lol it’s never the owner always someone who acts like they own it that kicks people out
Big D, I like your video. I have purchased several of the items you featured. That magnetic parts dish, for example is just one of those things that once you have one or more, you’ll ask yourself why you never got one sooner. I have bought some of the cooler looking ($3.99) safety glasses. I should check the ratings. Never paid attention to the ear pro, but…. I recently started teaching CCHL classes and will say that Harbor Freight Gun storage products are going to appeal to a lot more people who live pay check to pay check but still want to be part of the 2A community not to mention have the ability to defend themselves and family from the garbage the world is currently dragging in. Not to mention my own bottom line. So I appreciate your video and certainly hope that the revenues at the store where you were filming increase and the manager who kicked you out (and area manager) is aware that Big D sent ‘em.
Ty! No worries I’ve been back there and no issues! Keep up the good work preserving the 2nd amendment!
Magnetic trays can magnetize parts & tools.
@donaldoehl7690 in my experience the magnetism that happens to the small parts and tools isn’t an issue unless you’re dealing with something electronic.
I've been getting this stuff from harbor freight for decades! Lol great video brother!
Ty much!
Big Thanks for sharing Great money saving tips!
Glad it was helpful!
I have that Union safe from HF. I absolutely love it. I’m going to start getting the tools I need from here on out from Harbor Freight
Right on
How did i just see this video...informative, useful and funny af. Subscribed
Ty much 🙌🏻
• attenuation for muffs should be a minimum of -28db
• attenuation for incertible protection should a minimum of -30db
When used simultaneously -31 or more can be achieved.
I bought 35 sets of those picks for every operator in my department. They are the most valuable piece of kit we have at work
🤣
Tried to thumbs up more than once. Apparently that's not an option. Awesome video
Ty!!!!!
Love the content! Earned a Sub!!
Ty much!
5:46 I came back here to say I just picked up the Ranger ear muffs today during my lunch break! Thanks again for making this!
No prob!
@@bigdickballistics Picked up the ammo can and a pair of glasses too lol. The glasses weren't big enough to fit over my regular glasses, but the set of ears worked great! I have some range footage on my latest shorts of some 3D printed guns I finally go to fire when I went to the range.
0:50 😂 I had to subscribe 😂😂
🤙🏻
just remember you get what you pay for....
You’re 100% right, for new shooters on a budget or cheap fucks this is a start, just one way of many!
Po' folks have guns, too.
Bruh… I just subbed because of the name of your channel. 🤣💀
💯🇺🇸🍆
Thank you for enlisting in the big dick battalion!
@@bigdickballistics amen to that brother!
This was a funny one,new sub here man,and I dropped a like!!! 👊👊👊👊
Ty much!🤙🏻🤙🏻
I might have missed it but I didn't see a reference to the Bauer 4 Pocket Drill holster. It is admittedly big but that can solved by installing rivets or snaps to hold the holster closer to the firearm. It would make a good Pickup holster, or - and this is the best use - to hold a HDP50 .50 caliber pepper launcher 'pistol,' which is a beast. The secondary pockets can hold the CO2 cartridges and spare rubber/powder/pepper balls. And - get this - it costs $9.99!
Can’t believe you promote harbor freight then they kick you out and slap an add for themselves on your video 😂
Well, that manager is not a good manager , boss man, better think twice on who they hire lots of money there lost by kicking you out . because you just reached out and advertised for harbor freight to thousands of humans which brings revenue to Harbor freight., thanks buddy , 🤙
Not breaking a sweat, Ty for the ❤️
the pick set is more convenient then you think i keep like 3, 2 for work and 1 at for they are cheap and handy for specific uses when. the 2 for work because you will snap them sooner or later from repeated use and the home one seldom gets use but handy to keep around or too swap in when i run out of work picks.
HF is where I get walnut medium for tumbling my brass. Way cheaper than ordering it online and no shipping fees or wrather damage from sitting on my front porch 😅
100% I left that out and the Tumblr
Harbor freight is good if u kno what’s good or not. Some of their stuff is garbage. Great prices on everything
I have and use an Apache pistol case. Very nice sturdy case. Last fall flew to Florida from Minnesota, checked in my pistol in the Apache case. Got to hotel in FL, tried to open the case, couldn't do it. Closed.the case in MN (1200 ft elev.), tried opening on FL at sea level, the pressure squeezed it shut and the air release valve does not work on the case. The case is for sure air tight and waterproof. Had to stick a knife in between the rubber seal to get some air in there,.then it opened up.
That first one,I got that same ammo box,does as intended. Pretty good. Hold about 20-25 boxes of 50 rnds of .22 CCI . Need to check out if my local harbor has some flags. they're always out .
Thanks for the great info, Dick....very helpful. You just saved me lots of money. Be blessed brother.
ur the goat man i thought this was a joke but damn im picking up some of this stuff on pay day lol
Just a dude brother, thanks for the view!

I got a Harbor Freight, Tractor Supply and a Rural King near me! Every time I leave the house the wife looks at me suspiciously 😆
It's funny as this video can go both ways as satire or serious!
💯🤙🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
