Frank spent over two decades as a Marine Corps rifleman, an experience that sparked a lifelong fascination with military small arms from around the world. A father of three and lifelong hunter from rural Montana, he's spent years studying and collecting firearms tied to military history — from American service rifles and Soviet/Russian classics like the AK platform and Mosin-Nagant, to Korean War-era arms and modern ROK military hardware. His channel blends hands-on range time with deep-dive history lessons, comparing how different nations approached rifle design, doctrine, and manufacturing across the 20th century. Expect weekly range sessions, detailed gear reviews, side-by-side comparisons of American, Russian, and Korean military firearms, plus honest talk about maintenance, ammo, and responsible ownership. No hype, no gimmicks — just straight-shooting content from a guy who's spent a lifetime studying the guns that shaped modern warfare. New videos every Tuesday and Friday.
