Respectfully disagree

Not about normie gamers certainly, people who play fortnite only and stuff like that. But true gamers I think are awakening politically.

I hope you're right, but I've played video games online with different people of varying age groups for over 12 years. Only recently stopped playing. Been my anecdotal experience that isn't the case, as well as what I have seen posted on social media/Reddit/etc. and even Twitch streamers rarely allow political talk in their chat.

Well twitch is hardly for gamers anymore anyways. It’s essentially a soft core porn site.

Reddit has been a leftist cesspool for a long time.

I’ve had exactly the opposite experience with various gaming groups I am in so who knows.

I brought them up because they are YouTubers in the same wheelhouse so for them to acknowledge the video means that they likely agreed with some of the content.

I wasn't saying they're leftists. Gamers often have some conservative views, but don't vote or care about anything political aside from laughing or being angry at SJWs. Apathy is common in gamers.

Gamers mostly hated Last of Us 2 for its obvious pandering, but they don't care beyond their realm. That's been my experience.

Turns out people are complicated.  Lucas/Trex Arms can be both great for 2A rights and a giant tool bag at the same time.  He shouldn't claim to be what he's not.  It's good he's gotten lots of people interested in firearms, 2A rights and training/practicing but he probably has no business instructing said training.  I like their video on the history of the NFA but I'm not gonna watch him and his friends run around assaulting cardboard targets.  

We need the skinny jean wearing video game players on our side too.  Gun guys/gals can't just be Fat Fudds and dudes with beards & tats that just got out of the military.  

But don't ever lie in this community.  Don't claim to be what you're not, fuck that.

Ok, boomer.

I know it's hard to imagine, but there are a ton of young people who have and who are being opened up to firearm ownership through video games like Call of Duty.

I'm one of them. My family were not shooters, I didn't grow up hunting, I first got a taste for it in video games and it went from there. I was calling Sean Cody up at the age of 16 to setup an NFA Trust.

This has been more true as time has went on. Lucas kind of straddles and markets that important transitory spot between video games and firearm ownership, and it's clearly evident if you pay any attention. And instead of just blasting watermelons, he's also giving them context for things like NFA, resisting stupid and arbitrary rules(pistol braces), and lots of information that has taken even boards like arf forever to get on the bandwagon with.

I would love to see the demographics for his content, I bet it skews incredibly young. 115,173,321 views on YouTube, 25K Subscribers on Twitch, and 382K instagram followers on just one of his pages. You don't think that's had any impact?

There are certainly lots of valid criticism that can be leveraged, but most the people who come into these threads to bitch are just looking for things to justify they hatred they already have for him, which reeks more of sour grapes than legitimate complaints.

Overall, if people think he's just some narcissist, the best move would be to just stop talking about him. If anything, continually posting about him complaining is just going to eventually lead to clicks and conversions on his webstore and put money in his pocket.

Congratulations, you played yourself.

You're correct in that too.  He along with several others were on a live Twitch broadcast with the Dev for the game Escape from Tarkov with thousands of viewers where they chatted pretty much exclusively about firearms and the 2nd amendment.  Hes getting the word out, hes telling people to train, become proficient, learn first aid, etc etc.  (I 100% get that the kid isnt the one you want to be getting the training from, and he's not even offering classes for anyone who might have wanted his training in the first place) but he is growing the community, and his message is beneficial to newcomers.  


Edit, here it is.

Ok a few questions I'd like everyone to answer honestly.

Has he ever put out a step by step training guide showing people how to do things in a comprehensive training manner?  Yes/No?

Has he offered to take peoples money and offer in person training in return?  Yes/No?

Or lastly, Has he set up a range shoot similar to normal 2 gun/ 3 gun course to make a fun video as they themselves practice? Yes/No?

His tactics may suck.  I'm not here to make an argument for or against that.  But Last I checked, not a single video he has breaks things down step by step suggesting the viewer follow his footsteps throughout the shoot.  Its just a video of them goofing off, practicing and telling the viewer to become familiar with their kit.

No one cares about the stuff you mentioned.  

Rather, the upsetting part is where he is deceptive about his clientele to boost his "street cred" on social media.

For the record, I like his videos and will probably be a customer at some point, his online store is great.

He doesn't need to fake the funk about himself training/advising military units to be successful.

Fucking this.

My parents are from NY and CA, needless to say I did not grow up with guns or anyone who could teach me about them. Counter-Strike (I'm old) got me into guns. NRA first steps is where I first handled and shot a gun when I was 19. YouTube/ARFCOM/internet is where I learned everything I know. I shoot one to two matches a month and own lots of NFA goodies. His education on 2A for gamers is massive in the culture war.

Lucas/Trex was the first vocal advocate for civilians to own gear/kit, to train, and be proficient. I'm tired of MIL/LEO gatekeeping.

As to the video, navyguy says thru 3rd party 5th group just uses his range. Lucas say different. It's probably a bit of both if you ask me, why do I care?

He went thru hundreds of hours of his content and found 3 examples of bad tactics. Garandthumb pretty much said this, "sometimes we make mistakes when training". Why not put out a video helping Lucas / the community correct those mistakes? vs drama?

This is no where near Cory or Tarans shit. We have a common enemy it's the left.

Dude owns a company he started with help from his family and makes money. Good for him, thousands of people do the same thing.

So his father bought him a range and they turned it into a cool place for him and his buddies to shoot... good for him.

He shoots fast at close targets on a range that he helps set up, a range where he knows where all the targets are placed, because he helped set it up. Now his friends film him shooting those targets and people fall in lust for him.

He doesn't shoot with people outside his group, he doesn't do matches, he doesn't seek other trainers input. He claimed to work with MIL/LEO, then makes derogatory comments about their skills on social media.

His fan base worship him and say stuff like his team would wipe out MIL/LEO guys. What proof do you have of that other than him shooting fast.

His tactics around vehicles and barricades are terrible and not sound. He puts a partial used mag back into a slot where you just did your speed load from... that's all kinds of bad. He mocks people that make fun of his build, yet if you are on a team and your body gets hit, you better be able to get him or her to cover, can he do that?

In a CQB environment things can go hands on, people can get the jump on you, can he gain control of his weapon if someone grabs it, can he fight off an attacker that gets the jump on him?

If you are training for a fight, you should understand pulling the trigger is the easy part of it.

He has a lot to learn but his arrogance gets in the way of that and pushes off anyone that calls him out.

At the end of the day he is a cocky young man that shoots fast and has money. That's it.

Anytime anyone gets a fair amount of success and name recognition all these guys come out of the woodwork to 'debunk' the person to get clicks on their crappy youtube channel. Unfortunately for them the market for ex military guy social media is pretty saturated. pass


Dude lighten up. No veteran is trying to tell you what to think. Or try to tell you what you can own. Where are you even getting this?

But when some kid with zero experience says to his thousands of followers that he is paid by the military to train its special operators - it's fucking time to crack down.
Wasn't it Dakota Meyers about the tactical larpers at the range and people didn't need that stuff unless they were .mil.  It was some stupid shit like that but I don't think thats a majority opinion.


Don't forget Tim Kennedy about "no 18 year old needs an AR15".
Didn't Pat Mcnamara want red flag? Apparently it was UBC and waiting periods from a Comedy Central show that was deceptively edited.

Red Flag Dan Crenshaw?

Synopsis:

A decent rundown on Lucath's perceived knowledge/abilities and Lucath's knack for pulling the wool over his fanboy's eyes.

Disclaimer:

If you love Lucath tactics, you may need a hemorrhoid donut to sit down on after watching this.

Edit:

Being pro-2A is great and all. Lucath is outspoken about pro-2A and stating civilians should train and buy gear, well, that's great and all, but he sells equipment and provides a service.H He's looking out for the pro-2A folk for sure, but he's also funneling them right into T.Rex arms.

Lucas and his family are Christian fundamentalist nutjobs who believe women exist as breeding stock and nothing more and that rape victims deserve to be put to death. Google Geoffrey Botkin if you want to learn more.

It also doesn't help Lucas that he's posted some pretty racist and homophobic shit as well.

And again, as has already been said - yeah, it's cool he's a pro 2A guy, but it also doesn't mean he can't also be a total douchebag as well - you can be both.

And to those who keep saying "but muh firearms community needs all the help it can get"/"we have to stop eating our own" can we just take a brief look at back at some of "our own?"

Experience and credibility matters to a lot of us.

And he basically has neither.  



Also his tactics and gun handling absolutely do suck in the clips posted in that video...  that was his best take that he chose to post up huh?  Thought everyone said “he can outshoot you” or something like that...  (he probably could outshoot me.  But I’d even the odds since I know how to actually use cover...)

Lots of good knowledgable trainers and such out there.  Make someone more deserving your hero instead.

For those who can see the IG post linked, what was his response?

I’m curious if this is going to actually stick. The fact that Garand Thumb and Colion Noir posted in the comments section makes me think this won’t be something that Lucas can just brush off.

So all the accusations are disproven because he got a picture taken of him shaking the TN governor's hand after lobbying?

Let me slow it down for the all-or-nothing window lickers, since they can't seem to get it despite being told multiple times: he can be a stupendous asset in his pro-2A lobbying and a stupendous douche for lying about his relationships with LE and the mil.

1) he’s arguably done more to promote the 2A than anyone on this site has, especially with younger audiences.

2) he’s deflecting, not addressing the issue head on.

I never bought anything from T-rex nor am I a fan of the skinny Jeans wearing Lucas. That being said crabs in a bucket, hes got an outreach we need rather than shit on. If someone is dumb enough to take training/advice from Lucas thats on them.

Hes done more for the 2a than anyone on here. I support him for that. He brings in a lot of the young generation through his media. The kids a genus. But i cant stand for other things about him.
