This was my first attempt at video production.  I did this last year right before the Cody show to try to help promote Rob and Brad’s new book on 1895’s.  It was enough fun to make that it spurred me to start the new channel to promote vintage firearms to new collectors.  The editing may be a little rough on this one, but I hope it’s enjoyable to the ’95 fans among us.

Keep up the videos, I enjoy watching them.

i have a 1892 carbine.32-20 and look forward to a video of the rifle and I know you have .32-20 rifle so am looking forward to a video on the smaller calibers too.

Looking forward to watching this one! Have enjoyed all of them so far Mark, especially the old 1873 you brought back to life!

Still waiting for the ’66 of yours to throw some lead downrange! 😉

Great to see Winchesters being used!

Thanks Dean.  I really enjoy making them, so it’s good to hear there are people out there who enjoy watching them.  I shoot a 32-20 in the episode on Model 53’s and an 1892 carbine in 25-20 in the episode on Winchester Leverguns.  Keep an eye out for more episodes in the future with Winchesters in 32-20, and maybe even a couple of Colts.

Thanks Chris.  I’m working on a couple of episodes with early “been there and done that” rifles that I think you’ll enjoy.

Mark,

Great stuff, keep ’em coming.  I live in the mid-Atlantic so the space isn’t quite so wide open as the ranch.  I either go to a small local gun range or shoot vicariously through your videos…better that way as you actually hit what you aim at.

Thanks Mac!  It adds some pressure to shoot well knowing that you’re shooting vicariously through our videos.  I’ll try not to let you down.Smile

I just need to borrow the keys to your truck with all those Flatsides on the tailgate real quick! I promise I’ll bring the keys back. Wink

Love the videos, keep up the great work.

Sincerely,

Haha!  I’ll give up the truck long before I’d give up my flatsides. Smile Thanks Maverick!

Good job, I don’t understand your apology for the quality. Really enjoyed the informal conversational style of the video. Hope you’re enjoying the show, wish I was there.

Thanks Mike.  We’re sitting at the show now.  A few less people this year, but lots of guns seem to be changing hands.

It was nice to meet you Mark.  My take on the show was that is was great to see everyone and to meet some of you in person.  Most tables were full and I had a great time even though I didn’t find what I was looking for.

Thanks Chuck.  I enjoyed meeting you and putting a face to a name.  Erin and I enjoyed the show immensely.  We met some great people and sold more guns than we have at any of the previous Cody shows.  Also, I think most of the small group of people who’ve watched my videos were in the room, so I got some great feedback.Smile

I hope nobody’s offended by a Brand X episode every now and then.  Getting my lovely bride into the act was great fun.

Another great video Mark. Those Colt Lightning’s are really nice, and look like a lot of fun to shoot.

I am really enjoying these videos. The Colt Lightning is one of my favourite guns. Thanks for taking the time to create these videos. I haven’t been to Oregon yet but hope to sometime in the future.

Thanks Al and Dave.  Those Colt Lightnings are a lot of fun to shoot and getting the wife into the act made this one pretty enjoyable.  We just finished one on large frame Lightnings that’s really a blast.  The wife even accepted a small speaking part in that one. Smile

Nice video.  I learned a lot.  I have a 3rd Model and didn’t know the differences.
