Yep. I wonder how many people who claim they need a gun for protection just have a gun fetish. I particularly wonder about the guy who was looking at the camera, grinning like an idiot, while firing 90 degrees away from the direction he was looking.
First rule of gun control - look at what you’re firing at.
Second rule, the first rule doesn’t matter because you have a constitutional right to be stupid with guns.

What a ****ed up video. Virtually every single person in that video is not qualified to own a firearm.

Idiocracy, he is us.

My BIL has this addiction, he has (in most conservative estimates) North of 500 guns, and tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition...including 1000 rounds ($6 each) for his Barrett 50 cal sniper rifle ($4000).

We try to get through to him that he could have retired years ago if he would start selling a few at a time, and not keep buying more every month.,,,,it's a FETISH !

1. I'm guessing their coffee is mediocre at best. Full disclosure...have not bought or tried it. Their marketing is what drums up the sales...not the product.
2. I need to buy more ammo

Aw, come on! Cut the guy some slack! Everyone needs a hobby or two! My life long desire has been to have a fully equipped and armed PT boat! Nothing like the beat of 3 Allison or Merlin V12 engines at full throttle! Not to mention the rat a tat tat of the twin 50 mount! Wonder where one could find live torpedoes?

That's called an obsession. At least all of those spoons have value. They are a store house of value.

Great video!

But one girl looked a bit "manly" early on... (Mini skirt)

When you refuse to sell, the value is only in your head, a comfortable retirement eludes him if he holds onto this "value", and no kids to will these to either !

I just watched the video. It's ridiculous for sure, but, what did you see that disqualifies anyone of them from owning a fire arm, let alone "virtually every single one"? Which ones did qualify to own a gun in your opinion?

None, they have a constitutional right to behave that way. Blindly firing a pistol is just Okeydokey.

Ridiculous and guns are not a good mix.

Every amendment has restrictions inherent to its language. The major restrictions on the First are incitement, defamation, fraud, obscenity, child pornography, fighting words, and threats.

But that's not my main argument. It really comes down to with great power comes great responsibility. Responsible gun owners like myself and others I know realize that this kind of video is just a recruitment machine for the gun control machine. Why would anyone give ammo (no pun intended) to the gun control crowd.

Lastly, it's just plain irresponsible and some kid is going watch it and try to mimic it and hurt/kill himself and/or others.

Gun owners need to police ourselves. It's really that simple.

How anyone can watch this and not shake their head in disbelief and disgust is a card carrying member of our developing Idiocracy.

What a bull**** video. If you haven't watched it yet, don't bother.

Those girls lost their clothes because someone off camera yanked them off with a string, not because of the guns firing. Pretty ****ing lame.

And no, seeing a couple girls in a bikini... you didn't miss anything.

I started Black Rifle Coffee Company to provide a high-quality, roast-to-order, coffee to the pro-2A and veteran communities. Between deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan, I was working to refine both my coffee roasting and my firearms skills. I have spent over a decade researching coffee, refining my roast profiles, and (of course) drinking what I roast. Black Rifle Coffee Company is quite literally the combination of my two favorite passions. I take pride in the coffee we roast, the veterans we employ, and the causes we support.

Geez, it's just a (purposefully) silly video, a bunch of clowns hooning around with guns. No doubt filmed under very controlled conditions with the safety of everyone involved their first and foremost concern. These guys are all vets with impressive service records, and they know their way around these guns. No children, animals, nor women were harmed in the filming of this video...

Some of you guys are just way too uber uptight. Relax a little. Allow these boys a little silly, harmless fun. Clean the sand out of your manginas, untwist your panties a turn or two, and chill. Geez.
