  Eye protection is key. And then almost none of the idiots wear ear protection, and put on the helmet and bulletproof vest instead lol.

    idk what gun channels you watch but every guntuber ive seen at a minimum has in ear pro, as well as usually over the ear protection as well. They take it off when doing their explanations and talking but by that point the firearm is cleared and set down on a table, not actively being fired.

      That’s because it actively hurts your ears if you are firing without ear protection.

      To be clear, I mean the less reputable larpers- one ones I called “idiots”. Mostly the manosphere types that periodically show off guns.

      I agree, most of the people I’ve seen that are more a part of the firearm community proper conduct themselves properly around firearms.

  Well, if you’re gonna test equipment, might as well know what it’s like to use it in fulle gear like you most likely would in the field. Can’t fault the idiot for that.

    Between naked and tactical gear there is a middle ground of just proper ppe like long clothing (stupid to have short sleeves unless you want a nice shell burn) actual safety glasses, maybe gloves

    If he fired it naked, you complain about that

      Sure, my point was someone would crticize him for anything he did.
