We've all seen plenty of the good, bad and the ugly on the youtubes concerning gun control, patriotism and everything in-between. I think we can do better. I think this group has what it takes to make an impression outside our little corner of the net and just maybe... make an impact in the propaganda war.
This thread is for real ideas for real videos to be put out there to make an impression. I'm tired of just watching videos. I'd a least like to be part of producing one. I don't know much about video editing though. So, we're going to need a few things. People with ideas (no shortage there) People willing to get video content and someone with editing experience. If we can only get the first two, I'll do my best to put it together.
My first idea is this: A video highlighting the hunting benefits of the AR-15 platform. More than enough has been commented on about the 223/5.56 calibers but we all know that's not the whole story. One of the most popular reasons for owning an AR is the versatility and that isn't being discussed. In fact, the platform has been basically discounted as a hunting rifle altogether. I'd like to expose some ignorance.
For example: There is an epidemic of wild boar in Florida and The AR chambered in .50 Beowulf is becoming a popular deterrent. In other parts of the country, hunters enjoy the high capacity magazines to better overcome the large numbers and fast reflexes of a booming coyote population. They too also use calibers outside the ones the media portrays.
This video would accomplish two things. First, confirming the AR-15 as a viable hunting platform, useful in many different calibers. Second, confirming that there is a need, beyond self defense, for high capacity magazines. Specifically, for the more agile critters that need shootin.
That's just one idea but I think the self defense angle has been covered...maybe too much...maybe not accurately enough. (think on that)
Like a million other million hit wonders, this can be cheap and dirty. We just need the relevant videos already taken to back up the argument. Then we throw a soundtrack on it and overlay some text to get the point across.
Lets get outside our box and join the fight.
