I think you are onto the clearest interpretation. New gun owners come into the hobby and, he's pissed they aren't perfectly educated... He does come off as someone who seeks to be the contrarian and always pointing out the negative in what people are doing
Yeah, that was pretty clear from their SHOT show videos. Going around dunking on normies who really don't understand their own products. I get it, the products are dumb, but everyone already knows that. IDK not super classy. Just came off as mean spirited.
Ya, the pgo shotguns have extremely niche applications and wont spread within 5m. He did make a post on youtube pointing out that these screenshots were doctored. He posted a picture that shows he didn't say he hated new gun owners just the first sentence. So, this archive is prolly mostly smear. He is clearly a grouchy dick but, he wasn't as vindictive as this suggests. I also think he wouldn't publicly trash giant youtubers on discord. That's real dumb and, he clearly isn't brain dead.
I've long suspected Karl and Ian are both lefties w/ a hobby. I'd love for someone to prove me wrong.
Ian isn't. I suspect there's a reason we've been seeing him less and less on InRange while Forgottenweapons is still going strong.
IMO Karl is more of a contrarian anarchist, while Ian is more of a libertarian academic.
