He takes 2 hours to watch 60 minutes. Is there a Cliff Notes version?

OK, thanks. A lot of people seem to be saying that it comes down to nuances when deciding to choose one over the other.

I'd like to try one.
Gotta say that the "U" sight doesn't look good to me, but I'd give it a go to see how it works.
Does Hamhock.45 talk about the sights?

Does Hamhock.45 talk about the sights? Yeah, he said he doesn't love the U-Notch in the rear, but reports that he has no trouble making fast and precise shots with it. PS I find the hostility towards this guy (name calling and such) a little baffling on a gun forum.

People resent being provided free informational content that they could simply choose not to watch, and rightfully so.

What hostility?
Ever see the guy's hands?
And he does ramble on.
A lot...
I mostly watch his stuff when I'm home late nights and it's just me and the dog up. I'll click on his video and watch for 3-5 minutes. Then I'll let it play while i let the dog out and hit the bathroom myself.
Then grab some popcorn or chips and head back to the den, and he's still saying the same thing he was when I got up...

What's the complaint about Springfield? Political? The IFMA donations?

What's the complaint about Springfield? Political? The IFMA donations? They stepped on their own winky about some Illinois gun law or other. Some said they were misled, others not. Can't say. Not the first time for something like this. There are still those mad at Bill Ruger for not toeing the line on something 30 years ago, and S&W (under previous ownership) for working with Clinton on another evil plot against us. If I could remember what it was, I might be mad too. 🤔
What fresh Hell is this?

Thanks. It sounds like the Illinois Firearms Manufacturers Association donations reportedly run by Springfield and Rock River where the IFMA gave a bunch of money to several hardline antigun politicians.

It wasn't political contributions, per se..
It was that SA and RRA capitulated and conspired with liberal senator Harmon for exemptions to the Illinois gun dealer licensing act. SB 1657 iirc...
This threw all local FFLs under the bus in regards to onerous state regulations and unrestricted and unlimited fees to maintain their state dealer licensing.
The most innocent of SB1657s requirements simply duplicate the requirements of the federal licensing procedure.
Beyond that SB1657 would have required individual licensing of sales persons working for the gun dealer. It would also have given the state authority to designate unregulated and unlimited licensing fees.
It was a massive sellout on the part of SA and RRA. Big box stores whose sales of firearms we're below a certain percentage of total receipts were exempted. LGSs would have been eliminated for the most part.

I do have a SA XDS and a RRA AR15...

I like Hickock, but good lord he can prattle on. He can ramble, but the fact is he puts a lot of good stuff in his videos, right down to breaking them down, and comparing them to a bunch of other guns which he knows and knows well. He is not guessing and his opinion is far more valuable than most... He is one tall dude!
