Aero-Spike Russian API rounds

I can't imagine YT allowing monetization on this video for more than a day.   But these days I feel like I am working for the Patreon supporters more than trying to appease the advertisers.   Thank you for supporting us!    

Chris is selling inert Aero-Spike rounds to help recoup some of the costs of making these.  They aren't cheap but considering the cost and time put into each one,  he is probably making around $5 per round.

Aero-Spike Russian API rounds

I posted this once before, but it is still continuing. When I watch a video, it gives me a redline across the bottom and the thumbs up turns blue when I click on it. I am still finding videos I have watched that show no red line or thumbs up. This pretty much all started a several years ago when google said you will follow our rules on youtube or get off of it. It is getting worse. It seems you can use all the profanity you want, but can't shoot a plaster gummy bear. Do I dare ask if they have found out about the soft and squishy ones?

PS; What, no gummy bears? LOL.

The other half of VHP follows you on YT.

I am more than happy with just a dollar! thanks!

A few people have sent us live shells before - ground shipping- but most of the time they just send the projectiles and any special wads they might need. I'm pretty good at coming up with recipes for various loads.

I went back and forth with the partner support guy about the airsoft video. There is nothing in the video that is violent ----- EXCEPT when we shot the plaster of Paris bear. Yes, they actually determined that shooting that bear was too much for advertisers to bear!

I think we still (YT too) earn a LITTLE from Youtube Red or whatever it is called. But it is a tiny amount.

TAOFLEDERMAUS

When I had the amount shown, a lot of people seemed to have an idea we just do this as a hobby and it isn't my primary income. I quit a job where I had steady income, insurance, paid sick leave, etc. to doing YT full time. I have no security as a YT creator and all earnings have no taxes withheld (Federal, State, and local) but I STILL have to pay those come tax day in a big lump sum. SO people just saw the amount and thought earning $2000 a month before taxes was outrageous. From talking to other people on Patreon, the average Patron donates $2, so use that formula when you don't see the amount shown.

thanks!

Hey I will always love your content! Willing to go up another pay tier if you add it.

Jeff. How do you take custom rounds into your possession? Do you allow custom rounds to be packed, rolled, boxed and sent? Or would you prefer us to send just the round and a list of the powder we use, the wad we use, and all the other specs?

I can understand YouTube not wanting to support snuff videos of puppies; that's just out of synch with cultural value. I can't understand how ballistics/entertainment videos qualify, other than to say that YouTube cultural values are out of synch with Americans. Increasingly, the schism between the brainwashed left and normal people is fracturing the country, driving us towards Civil War mentality, if not actual conflict. Maybe it's so that we'll be so busy hating each other that the thieves in D.C. can sneak under the radar and continue looting the treasury unnoticed. It truly gets tiresome to a laissez-faire believer to witness the disappearing notion of a "free country." Great work, guys - entertaining, humorous, and informative all at once!

Every day Jeff, Danny and the OG! are alive and healthy enough to gather in the fields... AND I'm still above dirt to witness the resulting video merriment... is a damn good day iffin you ask me. A blessing, honestly. Quick (and admittedly dumb) question - Since YT insists on demonetizing these as "unsuitable for ads", do they still make money on people watching them anyways? You know, since nobody would dare pay for an ad on them and all that.... Y'all be safe out there, -Ed on the Ridge

Awesome video! Great rounds too. Shame how quickly the demonetized it though. Also, any chance you could set up your Patreon to show your monthly income? I know some folks do it and it would be cool to see how many folks are supporting you for how much total. You definitely deserve all the support and more that you're getting. If I could afford more than the $5 I would send it your way.

Great video Jeff!
