Hi Adriel, I agree.

Middle-aged dudes like gunspinning because Revolver Ocelot reminded us of the Old West. 🤣

You're pretty good

@@rhinestoneropers9204 Tornado Yoshida (the guy they mocapped for Ocelot) is the best non-American gun spinner I ever saw. Might be worth looking up a video of him.

some of us younger folk like it because red dead redemption 2 🤠🐎

Thanks.

pretty... good

Good for you. If there are any tricks that you would like explained, I would be happy to, If I can.

Thank you.

Thanks.

Those old Rugers are Heavy. You must have strong hands.

I wish you good luck Simon. My bet is that you are looking at July rather than Halloween.

Thanks 👍

Good job Peter. As you know, you just have to get the off hand up to speed. Have fun.

Good Luck

Hi Macario, I'm glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching.

Glad you liked it!

Thanks Karl.

Yes, this can be hard on the hands.

Good for you! Fun is the key.

Thank you BNE. You are right it takes time and focus. As you know, the dilemma of the performer is that, if you do it well, it looks effortless.

@@rhinestoneropers9204 100% I’ve been practicing with my Cody colt 45 fingers get sore af 🤣

@@rhinestoneropers9204 I was watching your video like bruh this man is so nice with it lol real doc holiday

Thank You Seth.

Glad you enjoyed it

Glad you enjoyed it!

Thank you Robert.

Thank you and good luck.

Hi Wander, I started with a Ruger 22 also. I don't remember it as being fun to practice with though. If you are like me, you have quick hands and even quicker feet.

Same here. Got a ruger wrangler and have been practicing with it for a while, it's been really fun

Yes, they are not made for spinning but we do it anyway.

@@rhinestoneropers9204 I’ve gotta practice more. I’m thinking of getting a shorter barrel and starting off with that

Good Luck.

Glad you like it!

I'm glad you liked it Ken. Thanks for watching it.

HI John, Thanks for watching!

357 here ... and same ... :)

You are welcome!

Yes they are heavy. Just find a place with soft ground because you have to be willing to drop them if you are going to learn.

How does it spin?

When you get a trick down, it does feel Cool. Have fun.

You can buy a wide trigger for your Uberti from Taylors. Here is the part # Uberti Cattleman Old Model Revolver Parts 1 x U0701010 Wide Trigger. They are $20.00

Glad you enjoyed it.

Thank you Brian.

Yes, Randolph had a great look.

My dad couldn't stand, Randolph Scott, called him a pouffe cowboy ( effeminate.) because his clothes and hair were always immaculately clean pressed after a hard fight rolling in the dust and beer, he would always emerge clothes in place and clean, hair combed and shiny.

@@biggusdickus5986 ; yes I get that. My dad told me he was very rich from oil.

Best of luck! My hands last only so long doing it.

Thanks.

Thank you Brandon.

I'll have to watch that.

Go for it!

You are welcome. Let me know how it goes.

@@rhinestoneropers9204 thanks

Glad it was helpful!

Thank you.

Thank you.

Thank you Fabio.

You are welcome 😊

Hi Jean-Sebastian, Congratulations on your quick success. I'm glad you liked the video and the shirt. My Mother and I made the shirt. Sorry, there is no place to buy one. I bought three Wrangler shirts and cut two of them up to make the bib.

Thanks Thomas.

Thanks Jesse.

Thank you.

Sounds like a great idea.

Thanks

Thanks Dave.

Hi Penguin, I'm glad you noticed the shirt. I made it. I bought three Wrangler shirts and tore two apart to make the bib.

I loved that game.

HI Paul, I've never tried one. How does it work for you?

Hello Josie

Good luck.

@@rhinestoneropers9204 thank you I’m still practicing but I’m getting better

Thanks!

HI Ken, Thanks for watching.

How did the fair go? I'm spinning Ruger New Vaqueros.

Good idea!

HI Captain, Great question! Even on a think rug, the gun seems to hit hard. Over the bed is good only for small tricks. The gun will tumble into the wall and headboard, or back into your knees. If you put the mattress on the floor, the gun will use it as a spring board to launch across the room. The most vulnerable part of the gun is the grips. They will break very easily. So if you have purchased fancy grips, practice with the old ones. Sometimes broken grips can be epoxied back together and will last a while longer. The 3rd best place to practice is outdoors on the grass, with the ground a little moist. This will still fill your barrel with mud, but your gun will not get hurt. The 2nd best place is over grass with a thin carpet over the grass. This makes footing a slight problem but it is great for the gun. The best place is next to the hay stack where the ground is covered with a few inches of old hay. This is very cushioned and will not be hard to move your feet on. I think that a heavy layer of grass clippings would work also. I spin rugers and although I've broken a lot of grips, I've never actually damaged a gun, maybe scratched it up some. Obviously, I have spent time spinning indoors but it's my least favorite place. Outdoors in the winter is no picnic but I'd rather fight the cold than hear my precious pistols hit the floor, or the ceiling. Thanks for the question. Have fun.

@@rhinestoneropers9204 boy, sounds like a messy business no matter how you slice it! How would an EVA foam mat hold up? One of those heavy duty ones that people put in their garages?

Ich verwende styro phor Platten kosten sehr wenig und schützen perfekt die Waffe .

Put an ear plug in the barrel to keep the mud out. JUST REMEMBER TO REMOVE IT ON REAL GUNS!@@rhinestoneropers9204 I have bad hearing to the extra wind and music makes a tutorial difficult to hear the instruction.

HI John, When I decided to get good, I practiced for an hour, 4 days a week. Now I hit it once or twice a week for as long as my hands last. It's good to practice a variety of tricks. That way when your hands get tired, you can move on to a different trick and use different muscles. The important thing is to wear them exactly the same way every time you perform and practice. If your belt is not on the same notch or if the belt is off to one side or if it is lower or higher, it can affect whether you can spin the guns back into the holster. If wearing your rig will help you discover the best position to wear it for performance, then it is good to wear it a lot. If you can't wear it for an extended period in the same way you do for performance then you are not gaining much. Another reason that wearing it is good, is that short, frequent practices are good. If you are wearing the rig it will be easy to draw a gun and give it a spin or toss for just a few minutes then put it away and go back to what you were doing. Short practices allow you to actually practice more without fatigue. Practicing with fatigued muscles can promote bad habits. Although sometimes it's necessary. Let me know how it's going. Dan

I practiced my spinning by spinning scissors first. Maybe i just have a natural talent for spinning, but i started off spinning scissors way back in grade school, and i suppose that helped a bit.

​@rhinestoneropers9204 . Have been wearing my rig around the place and it has really helped . It is a lot .more comfortable and is more natural. Like you suggested I can draw and spin for a few minutes then carry on and do it again. Thanks for the advice . I am working on spinningI it back into the holster.

Billy and Chavez tend to get over looked.

Yes, gravity makes it a challenge. You have to give it a lift as you release it.

Thanks 😅

Hi Pyro, I'm glad you liked the shirt. It's actually one shirt and pieces of two other shirts, plus a lot of planning and sewing and many buttons. I would not have gone to the trouble for a Halloween costume. So don't feel bad.

@@rhinestoneropers9204 amazing tricks though sir.

Yes practicing gun spinning is painful and sometimes bloody. You might look at my video called Hand Prep. I would advise not accepting limitations while practicing. When it's time to perform, then you work around and accept limitations. Good Luck

I worked out a front spin with my middle finger and will continue to practice thanks for the tip. And yes, I'm using your hand prep techniques but my injuries have been more around my head, shoulder and especially feet. Not a good idea to practice in sandals or bare feet lol. @@rhinestoneropers9204

Hi Dane, No I injured my middle finger when a horse was messing with me. Now it takes concentration to keep it out of the way when spinning.

Thanks

👍

Thanks

Thanks

My left hand used to be useless also. Now it is more reliable than my right for some tricks but it took a lot of practice.

@@rhinestoneropers9204i didn’t get notified but thanks for the answer. I’ll keep practicing!

I agree.

I've never held one, but I hear that they are pretty heavy. I bet that you can. Your fingers might get tired more quickly. Let me know how it goes.

Appreciate it

Great!

I know of only one very good gun spinner, a female, who spins with bent fingers. She also spins with her middle finger and not her index finger. I spin with straight fingers and I believe most good spinners also spin straight. Especially if you are new to spinning, I would advise straightening your fingers. I does take some getting used to and requires that you build strength in those muscles. This is just entertainment so there are no rules. Whatever works best for you is your style. You might even find that you can use bent fingers for some tricks and straight for others. I am interested in hearing about your journey in changing your style. Making changes can be difficult. Please let me know how it goes and what decisions you come up with. Dan

@@rhinestoneropers9204 Thanks for the advice ! I would like to ask one more question about the revolver itself.which revolver is considered the most comfortable for begginers ? I am using the Nagant Revolver, in a month I plan to buy a replica colt peacemaker ,because everyone is using it. Is it suitable for a beginner?

Thanks

Thank you.

Western Stage props has some replicas to choose from.

You bet.
