There isn't a single French gun that I'm interested in. Even if there were, I wouldn't be giving money to a communist who sucks off a satanist.
Ryder Rivera
No thanks, I don't give money to commie faggots
Asher Campbell
damn, I guess I haven't been active enough lately.
Alexander Morgan
basically people who stalked ian and karl found out they aren't based or redpilled so now everything they do is shit. oh also because they are popular now.
Kevin Roberts
I would prefer to steal from ians faggot ass than give him money
Leo Morgan
>85 fucking dollars for a book Yeah no, fuck off.
Alexander Martinez
I'm guessing a good amount of "bolt actions aren't combat obsolete" and "45acp XDS" types.
Ian Wright
its just people who can't enjoy content from someone who isn't like them.
Ayden Hughes
>t. Has no idea how much niche peer reviewed historical reference books cost I see somone has never been to college. 85 dollars is fucking cheap.
Jace Martinez
The fact people get so ass mad about them as people makes me confused. Ian doesn’t typically talk politics or opinions when he’s tearing down an obscure rifle, so if he does elsewhere it doesn’t exactly affect my experience.
Nathaniel Adams
Not owning a Berthier carbine and mounting a bayonet longer than the barrel length.
Ryan Carter
>someone who isn't like them In any other field, no one would care(as much), but firearms are highly politicized all across the globe. You simply cannot support someone financially who undermines your right to own firearms.
Jason King
>oh also because they are popular now. Bingo.
Levi Sullivan
I'll take the superior Mauser.
Caleb Howard
>Jow Forumsommando's should be able to get this over $1,000,000 funded. Why? He doesn't even like this place, why is it up to us to give him money?
Liam Morris
I pretty sure Ian even said in a video that he wants to keep the forgotten weapons channel apolitical or at least as apolitical as it can be, because of it's historical content.
Elijah Hall
Read the rule faggot.
Shilling for a product is banned in this board
Daniel Powell
and then he dived into political commentary on forums and in his videos, real smart
>$85 book >+$60 shipping to France >book in English
Way to alienate a large number of buyers.
Nathan Morris
Why don't you just read a france book in the first place.
Jason Flores
It's a Holy Text, not a product.
Andrew Carter
>I reject the reality and substitute my feefees : the post Answering to retards in comments, while futile, does not make the videos political.
Lincoln Hill
What did he say that was so bad?
Nathan Morris
He said genocide isn't the right way to describe whites in S. Africa and he knows a bunch of whites that said everything is fine. So you're all just a bunch of racists.
Aaron Moore
Oh and he said Rhodesia was shit
Levi Barnes
He implied that there wasnt actually a massive epidemic of farm attacks going on in south Africa. Which is true. Fewer than 100 people died in farm attacks last year and it's been on a downward trajectory since the Obama administration. But it was Jow Forumss hotbutton topic at the time so yeah.
Liam Scott
Because they're shit. We don't have any comparable book on the topic.
Mason Green
People realized that he's basically a center-left liberal that got into guns from a history and mechanical engineering perspective and has zero emotional or greater interest or connection to firearms. He really doesn't give a fuck about guns, and that pissed off a bunch of autists
Brayden King
where do you think ian sources all his material from?
Jacob Price
>Holy text
Did you read his previous book? >Larry Vicker make a book about
-Larry: Hey Ian, i am going to let you write one important segment in my book, it is the opening, one you talking about how AK are make. I will let you tag along with me on my trip to Russian because you co author this book.
-Ian: Cool, i will write that the Russian steal the designed from the German and about Schmeisser help Kalashnikov designed AK during 1947. We are going to Russia, but don't need to fact check with Russian because i know every thing.
>After the trip to Russia, Ian uploaded 2 video about AK Type 1 and AK Type 2. He misstook Type 2 production date with Type 1 and bragging about his segment in Larry book.
-Larry: Ian, the Russian are mad because what you write is all fucking wrong, you dumb nigger. I let you tagged along with me to Russia, i didn't you do your job. I will rewrite your segment.
>Ian: i thought the internet myth i read was right, i will just re upload my video before my stupid fan find out about my ignorant.
Josiah Gutierrez
>He really doesn't give a fuck about guns He is also a fraud.
After Larry Vicker book incident, i don't think i can trust anything that cunt said.
Gavin Barnes
In his latest video about an MG he says he's not going into any history because >"All the written documentation on this gun is incorrect"
Aaron Green
He said he is doing more research
William Parker
You haven't convinced me that you're actually literate
Zachary Sanchez
>Chassepot to FAMAS >Cesspool FAMOUS Dyslexia can be fun sometimes.
Colton Miller
Call me when he writes one about based FN
Xavier Myers
>I'm not particularly interested in French rifles, but this is GUN JESUS's first book. I enjoy his content but man this right here is fucking pathetic.
Andrew Reyes
Jow Forums is going off the fucking deep end. The only good threads are the fucking generals.
You know the board is scraping the bottom of the barrel when the fucking generals end up being the 'good' threads.
James James
It's a fucking disaster area here. I swear it was never this bad. The retardery has definitely ramped up.
Tyler Peterson
If the mods would just start banning non-weapons content it'd help
Blake Bell
Like banning ian shill thread.
Logan Richardson
Book is not weapon. Ding dong bannu
Brayden Ortiz
It is not about the book, it about shilling for a internet personality and his boyfriend.
The shill have come to a point that they claim everything Ian said was right and he know everything.
Jonathan Parker
Karl has nothing to do with this book
John Williams
It’s a reaction to his constant shilling and dick sucking. People kept posting his videos and talking about Ian, and eventually people got mad and started looking for reasons to dislike Ian and Karl and as it turns out Ian is a bit left of center and Karl is a giant edgelord who never grew out of his satanist phase.
Nobody ever wanted to talk about the gun in his videos, it was always about him, same with Hickcock, Garand Thumb, and every other youtube gun person brought up here. They just wanted to talk about that person and it’s fucking grating. Also this one is literally a shill thread.
Asher Stewart
>Kickstarter: Ian McCollum of Forgotten Weapons, Chassepot to FAMAS: French Military Rifles, 1866 – 2016This is basically a presale, the book is already in final editing and going to be published without this.
This is a joke right? He's not even French. This is vanity publishing. If you want to read a book on French military issue rifles, try one written by you know a French expert on them who speaks reads and writes FRENCH fluently
Jacob White
Post one
Ayden Moore
American kid who is not fluent in French tries to write a book on French military rifles.
You can't make this shit up
Eli Miller
Kek
Jackson Reyes
Or at least the one that includes a french translator or an english-speaking french expert on that issue.
Hunter Lee
>Post one There are literally thousands. How fucking retarded are you? You want me to post the several thousand books on Firearms by French authors? Because what this larping moron is trying to convince you that even though he is not fluent in French he can an writes about French guns better that the authors who already have?
I suggest you start with the periodical 'gazette des armes', over the years they reviewed thousand of books on French service rifles. If you are Ian McCollum seriously you seem to be a bigger looser than your critics were suggesting. Why do you think you are fooling?
Caleb Cruz
This is a con.YOu camt really be stupid enough to thing it needs an American who is not fluent in the language that ANYTHING OF IMPORTANTCE about these guns was written in to write a book about them. You really don't realise there are a huge number of books on them? This is a scam which like all scams targets the stupid and educationally limited
Logan Brooks
This. R*ddit will pay for the book and they're his target audience.
Fuck off, nigger, I figured since you knew so much you could recommend a good one for me
Alexander White
Well, just to play a devil's advocate, maybe they already have gathered enough material on their own. I mean, french don't live in a bubble, they translate their staff to english too. So if you're targeting a specific audience like gun-loving americans, you might as well bring a more familiar american author that could give his own perspective on the matter and get in touch with the local market. If you were in America, would you buy a book from some obscure and unknown french author or some famous american one? It's just simple marketing. But still, someone french is required for that work.
Colton Perez
Loving those >you have to like what I like >no you have to dislike what I dislike threads
Blake Morgan
He does point out that the research and design process was intentionally obfuscated by the Nazis because of the arms restrictions post WW1
Henry Howard

Let's face it this board is so far down the toilet when it comes to intelligence this con mans vanity project will probably actually make 'perfect sense' to some level of retard. Literally everything every source worth a shit on French rifles is, wait for it, written in French. Ian McCollum is not fluent in French. A certain level of retard will blankly refuse to accept that there is a thriving collectors and publication/writing community on French arms in France and that this conman has something to add. It's a level of fraud and stupidity that is beyond reason.
Carter Long
>HAHA EPIC GUN """""JESUS"""" PRAISE HIS NAME AMEN HOLY BIBLE LMFAO LITERALLY CANT EVEN STOP CUMMING AHAHIUGSHEIHGOEAOIGhaOIXHJXD´XXDDDD DO I FIT IN YET?!?!?! Die in a fire
Justin Watson
Agreed
Adam Jenkins
You forgot to write a generic comment referencing video games to get them sweet youtube likes
Angel Powell
He's going to do what he did with the proof marks talk and plagiarise a French book and pay someone to translate it and then get retards to give him free money on kickstarter. What a fraud
Aiden Gomez
>maybe they already have gathered enough material on their own
Gathered enough material, wait for it written in French, which Ian McCollum is not fluent in.
Logan Martin
fuck off back to plebbit. quit spamming and shilling this commie/satanist shit on here, faggot.
Well I am not defending Ian and his book, just saying that's the way marketing works.
Xavier Hughes
The degree of fraud and pretention in an ex barman who is expert in exactly nothing other than youtube and is not fluent in French vanity publishing a book on French rifles to the excited clapping of retards is vomit inducing
Landon Hughes
