MARCH 17, 2019: Apologies for the long read, but this should take less than a minute to consume. I really appreciate those of you who touched base and supported the channel while it was in deep semi-retirement mode. Some of you have been around since 2009, while newcomers signed on to a channel that was morbidly inactive and floating listlessly in the murky backwaters of the Internet. Not much has changed during the 2016-2019 hiatus with regard to priorities, family, business travel demands, time allocation, RU-vid ad financing, etc. I hope to engage here until RU-vid fully demonetizes the channel, removes it permanently due to their “moving goalpost” of community guidelines….or the project simply becomes too time-consuming for one person to maintain. Thank you again for your support, and your understanding. TNOUTDOORS9
I believe Patreon has a "per thing" payment option you can do instead of a monthly payment. That way we're only giving you money when you come up with something, as opposed to a monthly payment and expecting monthly content.
Really upset that I subscribe to you but RU-vid did NOT notify me about your new video. But it is what it is. Please test Underwood 9mm 147 XTPs. I know you bought some.....
@digital1911 TNOutdoors9 left a review of Underwoods' 9mm +p 147gr XTP load on their website. There's not that many people out there with that username.
Between tnoutdoors9 and Paul Harrell, I think our ballistics testing needs are covered very well. Happy to see that you're back because there was a giant black hole in the RU-vid gun community in your absence.
Unfortunately I believe Paul isn't a fan of the mainstream premium Hollowpoint or Hornady Critical Duty and Defense ammunition as he's always had similar or better results using the Green and White box Hollowpoint value packs you find in Walmart.
Every ammo purchase I've made is from viewing your unbiased and excellent reviews. I am VERY glad to see you're back. Hope all is well. You were definitely missed.
The legend is back. Don't forget about 40sw. Your old 40 tests are legendary. I'm currently carrying the new, not talked about 155g Winchester kinetic HE ammo. It's unofficially supposed to be a very similar to the silver tips. But I fired it at the range and it's the hottest 40sw ammo I've used in decades.
Omg....WELCOME BACK DUDE!!!! THE- BEST-EVER-.... HAS RETURNED....🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸Doc David Seriously, I learned more about ballistics from your channel than I did reading Doctor Gary Roberts 🤣🤣
Here I am on St. Patrick's day and this shows up in my subscription feed. I look at the feed, look at my beer, look back at the feed... "Wow, this beer is stronger than I expected!" Dude, as a subscriber from your first year and as someone who had enough faith to never consider un-subscribing...I have to say you made my day! Stay healthy, stay happy, stay safe and, from the bottom of my heart, WELCOME BACK!! No go finish cleaning up Hickok's range!
Welcome back! You are the master of unbiased, methodical, informative, and truly entertaining ballistics testing. You are often imitated but NEVER duplicated! I'm hopeful that we will be seeing more of you.
Like seeing an old friend after many years. It warms the soul. Your ammo tests have always been professional, and informative. Tell Bigfoot we miss him too when you see him.
YES! I love this channel for the simple and straightforward style. I really hope you find joy in making these videos because so many of us find joy in watching them.
One of the first youtubers I watched that got me into firearms and ammo ballistics, it is true youtube art watching your ammo review videos. The way you dissect ballistics is amazing, and gives us a great idea on what we should be buying :)
I get so many notifications on my phone because I subscribe to a whack ton of channels. This showed up in a notification and I literally stopped in traffic. Don't judge me too harshly, I'm normally a very good driver. Let's show some support and love for the channel (share/like) and let him know how much we appreciate what he does. Many channels have come along since he started this, alot of them have TN to thank.
I watched this again. Nobody that I've seen does a more in depth review or demonstration than you do. Your videos are much appreciated. More knowledge is gained by watching your videos. Thanks again and so glad your back.
You are the GOAT in reference to ammo comparisons!!!! Happy to see you back around. My wife, kids, and dogs have suffered because of my separation complex
It is fantastic to see you in a video. I am thankful to you for time and knowledgeable videos. What ever you decide I would be more that happy to support you which ever way you decide.
Very happy you are back! I enjoy the content. But most importantly, I'm glad to see you are ok. Thanks for all the hard work! I'll take it when I can get it. Be well.
So glad to see you back at it. One of the best if not the best ballistic reviewer out there. And to have you video it and putting it out there is such a plus. You do you. We will still follow.
Great video! Great to have you and your content back in any capacity and it’s much appreciated. Funny enough this was posted while I’m on my first trip to the Great Smokey Mountains and what a place this is. New TN outdoors video while relaxing in this beautiful cabin is so fitting and a treat to say the least. Thanks!!
Happy, Happy, Happy! It’s so good to see you back. Like always, my go to review channel. Love the slightly different format. Multiple shots in the same block. Consistency demonstrated!
I had to check the date again! Glad you're back! More please! You do as you please, we'll be here. Hey, I know your plight. One of my hobbies is building furniture. Over the years I have been requested many times to build furniture for people (for money) and I have refused. I do it for FUN and relaxation. Being paid would make it a JOB. And I would not enjoy it. I am retired and divide my time between shooting, fishing, wood working and taking care of my home (always something to do) and I do each when I want, as much or as little as I want and I want to keep it that way. Good for you! welcome back!
At first I didn't believe what I saw....It is so good to see you back doing what, I feel, is the best ammo, firearms testing on RU-vid, and the Internet. I send everyone to your channel if they ever have questions about ammo. Keep up the good work!!
I had to do a double i mean triple take looking at the date. Thank the man upstairs that your back. Love your videos. So informative....... thanks my man
Welcome back. I fully understand your position on RU-vid and Patreon, and I will simply enjoy any video that you put up on RU-vid. I hope you are well, and I look forward to more videos. Great to “see” you again!
It's good to see ya back my friend. Run it however ya feel led to do it. As you can see we're all happy you're making ammo studies again. GOD bless and looking forward to whatever you do. Thanks a heap!
These are the best ammo reviews on the web. You’ve got a dedicated fan base that will assist in any reasonable way to help sustain your work and produce content. Just say the word.
I can not begin to tell you how happy this new video has made me. I remember watching your videos from the very beginning. Thank you for coming out of deep semi-retirement for us. You are a true professional and contributor to the firearms community.
Yep it's a heavy penetrator, as the FBI prefers that. It's a good round for that especially since the high antimony lead core does amazing through hard barriers. So it's perfect for law enforcement, not the best for most CCW situations but certainly good.
I pack the 124gr +P in my gen 5 Glock 26 sub compact. 😉. I carry a extra Magpul 15rd G19 magazine with Critical Duty too. I like this round. It's well engineered & does great on FBI protocol tests.
@@DavidLLambertmobile from the glock 26 they will expand less and are more likely to act like FMJs but they will be always have that good barrier penetration even if they don't expand at all. Anything shorter than a 3.5 inch barrel and they pretty much have a zero chance of expanding.
Let me say, that I have not even viewed this video yet, but I know for sure, that I am so glad your back! I know it will be great and can't wait to CHECK IT OUT!! Thanks again for whatever it has taken to make it back and releasing another one or your wonderfully produce videos! Hope all is well, and God bless!!!!! Patrick
