Freedom Huddle visits Gun Store! 

As a 17 year old guy interested in guns, tooling, and CNC programing. I am super excited about this channel!!!!

Exciting stuff John! I'm digging the Huddle projects!

John, you have an awesome attitude and I'm so happy you are reaping the rewards for that. Many thanks for your videos and as always, best luck to your future works. Caleb

Bring on the gun stuff! Sounds like there may be some interesting ideas you fellows are about to present....looking forward to your new channel.

I think a great project would be a homemade canvas covering that goes at an angle from the top of the can to the back of the truck bed...Can't wait to see more!

Hi John, Congratulations on the new channel! Looking forward to some cool stuff here. Machining and firearms, can it get any better? Well, I guess firearms and shooting! It should be interesting to hear what one has to do to acquire a Humvee. Thanks, -mike

Holy cow! John's been cussin'!!

"Funny enough, these things can't tow shit." lol

I love it! Looking forward to more vid's from this channel, thumbs up. Machining guns and parts is just to cool to watch!!

Love surplus vehicles. I have two CUCV's so I'll enjoy you doing engine work!

Liked and shared to Facebook.

There are a couple interesting things to think about the brakes on these trucks. 1) They are higher so they stay out of the mud/water when in mild mud. Obviously if you sink it, the can still get gummed up. Secondly, they are before the geared hubs, so the brake rotors actually spin almost twice as fast compared to if they were at the wheel. The advantage is they can provide more stopping resistance! As a result the rotors are actually pretty small considering the weight of the vehicle. Lastly, there is a special cheater tool that makes changing the brakes easier. Taking off the top caliper bolt is a pain in the ass without it. Let me know if you want a picture of it/info. Makes the job MUCH easier.

The brakes being moved away from the wheels is done in quite a few European cars, Citroen among others do a similar thing... more info ( wikipedia page = inboard_brake ) I believe it is to do with suspension and inertia, extra weight bouncing further from the apex = more inertia, and also in the hummer case, keeping the brakes away from areas that may see it damaged easily.

The auctions I've seen for HMMWVs say they could only be used/registered for "off road" use only. Will you be covering the get around on that in your next video?

When you do a video on the Humvee, have either a segment or maybe another video on the car itself, that's always a nice start for projects, the get-go. :)

Btw I love all your videos. They cz scorpion is awesome. Got mine all tricked and am actually using some 3D printed parts that I designed in fusion for it!

You should look for a trailer w/top to pull behind it. You used to see them all over, not sure about now.

good going John, I already like the more laid back style of this channel.

Good luck with it, cant wait to see more !

I forgot to check the notify me box when I subed so I just now figured out their was activity here. Now to catch up.

'merica loving the new channel, I knew this kind of stuff was dying to get out, now it can :)

Go Johnny Go... lol

Ahhhh, time to start bitchin'... :-) After you built the .22 suppressor, you said you'd do a follow-up video on it. How fouled-up it was, was it easy to take apart... ect...... Any baffle strikes? In the comments, you said you would, now you have this channel. I'm going to hold you to your word! Anyhow, love the machining videos and am sure to enjoy this new channel just as much. Glad to see you're doing well. With respect, m.

im looking to buy hmmwv do a video on tag and title or any helping tips thanks

not trying to be negative here but man the humvee is a piece of crap. As a ten year vet, I can honestly say these thing are slow death traps that did little to protect soldiers in a fire fight. There is a reason the Army is making a never type.
