Met A Gun Celebrity Today!

[JohnC]

I bumped in to Hickok45 today. Had a quick conversation about pocket carry pistols. He's a very nice guy! It kind of made my day!

I meant to ask him if he wanted to do a video on the 50BMG via my ArmaLite AR50-A1B, but it slipped my mind.

So if you're reading this, Hickok, and you want to shoot it, PM me!

good dude, and same height as me!

[JohnC]

That's the first thing my Dad said -- "He's tall. I didn't think he was that tall."

I already knew he was tall because I'd seen him at one of the local Pro-2A rallies.

I too met him at a rally once. Great advocate for gun rights, he shows up and he's very well spoken. Super nice and yeah, really tall.

I'd hope he's well spoken. He's a retired english teacher hahaha

Sometimes I meet people and I can instantly tell they are just genuine, kind, great Americans. Hickok is one of those people. I love watching his videos and I bet the kids he teaches are better off because of him.

Cigar Club in Rivergate?

Looks like it from the photos. I've been meaning to stop in that place and check it out.

[JohnC]

Yup. Cigar Club.

Rumor has it buy a Barrett 82A1/107, Ronnie Barrett will come over to the OutPost and say hello...

[hipower]

Yes, he is a very nice person to meet. I've had the pleasure of running into him twice. And it always amazes me that he has the patience to stop and talk with all us yahoos who just want to say hello, shake his hand, and say how we all watch his videos. 

 

A true gentleman.

I first met him at a rally here in Mt Juliet, then at a few gun shows, great guy.

Well that's cool! :yes:

 

I'm ready for a M107A1, but my wallet isn't there yet. :lol:

[DWARREN123]

Met him once at Tennessee Gun Country in Clarksville. Very nice gentleman.

[JohnC]

Yeah, he is very cool. :up:

I'd loved to have him for a teacher (I hear he is or was a teacher).

I could tell he didn't have much time to chat, but he still made time to inform me on a good pocket carry gun and shake my hand.

Ahhhhh..........a man who appreciates a fine cigar is A-OK in my book.  Love your videos, Hickock45!

I'm looking forward to the warmer temperatures this weekend. I have a couple sticks in my humidor that I badly want to try.

[JohnC]

I was just burning a Macanudo and grabbed some pipe tobacco. :)

My favorite are the Robust, but I can never find them anymore for some reason.

Pretty cool, he is one awesome dude. I saw him and James Yeager at a 2A rally in Nashville at the capitol.  Not really my thing to go up and bother folks, plus there were plenty of other folks doing that, so I didn't meet anybody.

The key is to say hello, shake hands, make a comment and allow them to either exit or carry on a conversation.

If they have time and want to, they'll chat. If not, they'll exit. :up:

I met hickok at Knob Creek a couple of years ago, he had his son with him. I'll echo what everybody else has said, great guy!
