Ask Alec Baldwin. He'll tell you all about it.

I am not sure what all the animosity is about, Is it because he is NRA. many here are lifetime members? Is it because he used some incorrect terminology, that happens here a lot. Everyone knew exactly what he was talking about, there was no confusion about his meaning. So i really don't understand the negative attitude toward Mr Nior. I think he generally gives a very good image of recreational shooters to nonshooters. Could the event in the video have actually happened, members here attest to the fact that it can. The companies that make primers have accidents on a regular basis. This just seems to me like some here can boost their own ego by putting down someone else. In this time when we are rapidly losing our rights why belittle someone who is obviously on our side?
Or how about "left my shells in my PICKUP".
My own little peeve ,need a CDL to drive a truck
26,000 lbs and juice brakes ain't a pickup. No CDL for that....
I kind of like that guy because he is pro gun and supports the industry. As for that video, I sure won’t be losing any sleep worrying about a round accidentally going off.

My issue is I believe the video to be faked.
Big red flag for me is that amazing coincidence that someone was videoing someone shooting at the same time an extremely/impossible event takes place.
I've read all the posts here and am not seeing the one

keep your area clean pin head
IF it did happen it's the shooters fault
Now I know he has been at this fo 15-20 years
but in my 52 years of this I have never had it happen, just lucky I guess

Didn't Brandon say something like 'limiting the number of rounds in a cartridge" when he was spewing about gun control and a salt weapons? It was so wrong, I can't even remember it correctly!
Just so the rest of you have some one to look down on. When i load for handguns, i don't want to waste the life of my old chargemaster, and it really freaks out when i set it to dispense less than 7 or 8 grains. So I take an empty 9mm case and drill a hole through the base and glue a piece of brazing rod in for a handle. then i grind down the case till it holds just the right amount of powder from a load in the manual and use it for a scoop to charge my cases.
The 50 cal ricochet where the ear muffs fly off was faked. I don't think this one was.

Do tell!

My sentiment exactly.

Colin Noir fills a a pretty big spot in all things pro-firearm. If you haven’t seen or heard him, it’s worth the time. He can be found on shows like The View, or Bill Maher arguing against a panel of anti-gunners and easily holding his own. As a young black man who is respected in what is assumed to be white patriarchal racist world, he could be an easy target. He’s far from that.
With more than 1000 videos on the internet, the one above is probably not his only dud.
Often discussing legal issues and 2nd amendment rights, he’s certainly an asset to anyone who values a legal mind who is pro gun.
It kind of sucks to see someone who has reached a lot of people, with a positive pro gun message, getting ripped by other gun owners, who really haven’t taken the time to see who he is.

As I watched the video a few hours after Colion first published it, as I understood, this incident didn’t happen to him. He was informed of the video and just reported it.
A fair amount of people record videos of themselves shooting for either there own personal reasons, or as more people have their own video publishing channels. Plus it’s obvious, at least to me, that video was cropped to show a close up of the incident.
Plus. I’ve had primers go off as they where being seated in the cartridge case primer pocket. This has happened to me using a Dillon 550 and 1050, and with a RCBS hand priming tool of the shell holder type. Always gets my attention, along with everyone in the house. About as loud as a 22LR.

The axe swings both ways.
Mr. "Noir" (that means black) is also an attorney, and the law is all about WORDS
if it's about anything, and if you ever listen to lawyers in a legal setting, they are
very careful about their terminology because Words Matter!
Now that "bullets" are perceived to be "explosive" and "dangerous" as reported
by an "NRA Spokesman", on a "Public video" who is also a "firearms expert" and an
"attorney" and also "happens to be black", is all the anti-Second Amendment crowd
and legislators would need to begin stricter legislation regarding "bullets".
Go ahead and throw your rocks at me as a conspiracy theorist but if there is one thing
I care about it is the Constitution and the Second Amendment and with all that has
happened over the years to "infringe" and '"destroy" them both, YES, I am extra sensitive
Just remember that the Constitution and the Bill of Rights are made up of WORDS.
And the "Antis" are "Rabid" always looking for "Raw Meat"
