Now, I knew Caleb and his now wife in passing when I lived in Seattle. Their boss Lance sent his kids to the same daycare and ymca programs I did. I frequented Lance's Westcoast Armory, and Bellevue gun club a lot. Caleb and his wife moved away from Seattle to start Gun Nuts media shortly after I moved to CT in 2011.

I never really got along with Caleb. Ok, I thought he was a dick.

On to the vids. First, because it is intelegently done and not a bat watch. Paul Harrel's rebuttal of Caleb's moronic whisky filled rant. It is an hour and six minutes long. well worth watching.



Now if you really want to torture yourself, Caleb's idiotic vid.

I have been watching Harrell for about 2 months I find him articulate and well versed, much like Sootch or TNoutdoors , dont know that other fella...
you tube battles..lol..smh...

LOL, yeah, not my thing usually. Paul's break down of the Miami gunfight sold me on his ability to parse our data and facts. He usually stays out of these kinds of fights.

Caleb though, well he stepped in the shit while swatting at the bees nest with his dick.

fan of Paul here -- he is a credit to our cause and brings a great POV

his videos are thought-provoking, informative and balanced IMO

the other guy can crawl back under his rock...

--------------------------------------

Even with all the time in the world, I don't have enough time to wade into a food fight between two internet gun experts.

I enjoyed the eloquent rebuttal to the annoying and self centered "Gun Nut" which is a term and title well deserved.

Gun Nuts is just trying to get subscribers and views on his YouTube channel. He’s not good enough to carry Paul’s range bag. I do wish Paul never would’ve responded.

Ah, no thanks to either of these guys and their nonsense. I will find something worthwhile this am. Thank you very much. How dumb.

I watched most of Paul's video last weekend and, no, it's not a good watch.

You realize that, if you have to wait until 35 minutes INTO A 1 HOUR VIDEO to figure out what the actual point is, it's not a good video.

I respect a lot of Paul's work, but over a half hour of preamble with literally no discernable point other than the vague topic "rebuttal" is just bad communication.

I was hitting Dave Chapelle's "wrap it up" button about 10 minutes in.

Sorry, but this is not worth the watch.

I watched Paul's videos a couple of times, they seemed well put together and I like his delivery style.

I've watched Paul's videos for a few years ago. I've always liked him but found this rebuttal video way too long and really unnecessary. The other guy is an idiot. He could have just ignored him.

I am a Paul Harrel fan, but I won't sit through an hour long video of his feud with Caleb Giddings.

Who is Caleb Giddings anyway? I don't recall ever hearing of him.

I've never heard of Giddings and while I've heard of Harrel, I've never watched any of his videos.

I watched a few minutes of the Gidding video and while he actually has some good points, he comes across as an arrogant douche.

Watched a couple minutes of the "rebuttal". Good grief. He incurred no legal jeopardy by not responding, which is what he should have done imo. And what's with his jackets?

Paul Harrel is a gentlman and has been there and done that. His "rebuttal" was superb.

If that douche nozzle Caleb had an ounce of decency, he would issue a public apology to Mr Harrel. But I won't hold my breath waiting. After all, you can't expect much from somebody who puts ice in his whisky. Regards 18DAI

Never heard of any of these people

I am not about to watch about two hours of videos in which grown men nitpick each other.

I can get that along with my daily COVID-19 briefing from the White House.

That Caleb guy is an absolute joke.

I only watched part of Paul's rebuttal....I found it kind of boring and more importantly unnecessary. I don't need to be convinced that Paul knows what he is talking about...I'm already quite convinced !

I find him very knowledgeable and balanced. Attributes that are not always seen in the gun video community. The other guy ( Giddings) looks like a nut, I won't waste my time watching him.

Paul and Hickok 45 are my "go-to" guys when I want opinions ! mike

I like Paul Harrel’s videos and will continue to watch them from time to time. Caleb Giddings may run a revolver very competently but his mannerisms and attitude seem off putting.

That caleb fella came off as an immature juvenile ass jockey. Yeah, maybe he is a better trained shooter. Cool story bro.

Clearly, Paul has a lot of info to offer to the shooting community. You should get info from here, a little info from there, some info from over there, etc. Dont get all your info from one source. Learn from Paul, learn from other shooters, learn from other trainers.

Basically, what a shit show.

Caleb should be ashamed of himself, honestly.
