Fancy Gun Spinning Tricks : Doc Holliday Surrender Spin From TOMBSTONE 

I’m your huckleberry

Cool subject. Tombstone is one of my favorite westerns as well.

Nothing beats a Mississippi flush

I cant recall where I saw it, but you all probably know..in a movie or color show (post 1970's) I saw a trick where (Maybe Billy the Kid incognito?) guy was surrendering both guns to the sheriff, while in town. He does this spin to hold both butts toward the sheriff and then when the sheriff reaches for them he quickly spins them around and cocks them so he can shoot them (I think upside down, pointed at the Sheriff). He laughs and says "caught ya....im just kidding" and then spins them butt first again and lays them on the table. One of the coolest spins I saw as a teenager. Thanks for the vids.

Another cool one to show would be doing a forward spin out of the holster into a cocked position.

Cool...😎 There's lots of cool gun handling in Tombstone for sure. May not be the most historically accurate film, but it's got class all the same. Andrew, I was thinking about your gun spining abilities just the other day while watching The Searches.(for the 200th time 😏) John Wayne was a fair hand with spinning a SAA. In this movie, in the scene where the Rangers discovered a buried Comanche under a rock slab, the Duke pulls his pistol to shoot the corpse. He does a back spin upon the draw while elevating the spinning weapon level with his head. Then he exteends his arm and shoots. Then immediately after the shot, he does a forward spin and shoots again. All in all, it looked cool to me as a kid when I saw this at the theater, and still does today. In a later scene with Ward Bond asking for the Duke's pistol, John Wayne is tossing a coin with his right hand. Then in mid toss of the coin, he draws and does a back spin, while catching the tossed coin in his left hand. Again, pretty cool to see. I was wondering if you could do a spinning video on either, or both? I was thinking that if anyone could do the Duke's pistol spinning justice, you'd be the man to do it. 👍 No pressure.😕😉 Thanks for having a great channel, and videos of the things we old west nuts enjoy!👍

Good stuff!

Does this mean we’re not friends anymore? Lol great video!

Almost a reverse version of the Road Agent's spin. So very easy with a Colt SAA, which is so wonderfully balanced compared to, well, every other gun in existence. Even if Doc never did it, it is so incredibly plausible he might've. I'm sure some of these pistoleros were so practiced they could do it (and many other maneuvers) without thinking of it.

:) good video

I liked that fancy gun trick they used to do in the Westerns back in the 50s. Fire seven or more times with a sixgun! Now that's some real fancy shootin'! (I intentionally left off the "g" to sound more " Cowboy) I'm actually English (sorry about the war of independence).

You are a legend

I'm a new subscriber to your Channel ❤ Thanks for sharing !

Wonderful, thanks! Yeah, that scene, like pretty much all others in Tombstone, is iconic. I also like how you kept your index fingers inside the trigger guard throughout, which would still allow you to use the ol' road agent trick, should some shady sidewinder decide to pull a fast one on you. ;-) Cheers!

I’ve gotta get some fashion tips from you, man! I absolutely love your outfits in these videos! Do you have any favorites?

You should check the introductory scene from the "Billy the Kid" series - the confrontation between Billy and Joe Grant at the cantina. Billy does the infamous "unloading the enemy's gun" trick but in 1 smooth motion and it does look fantastic on camera.

Could you do one on the gun store scene in the quick and the dead?

where did you get your revolvers?

what are those guns? and did you buy them online?

See, THIS is why I subscribed-- because YOU don't do your 'gun handling tricks' *'Alec Baldwin-style'...* *smirk😏

I doubt Doc bothered with this tinhorn crap

what a crock! i assure you they were not concerned with doing gun tricks if their lives were on the line! nothing but a bunch of movie hype and bull!
