This guy was clearly the real creative drivin' spirit when he was with the "other guys" ...

Slade does such a good job framing his solutions. Instead of saying “this is the best way to setup your weapon and the guys that do it any other way are old school” or “other guys like to do this way but here’s how you should be doing it” he says “this is how I like to setup my sling and here’s why, I’ve found the other ways don’t work for me and here’s why” or “some guys prefer to run it a different way but this is how I like to run it for me”. He talks about what works for HIM and doesn’t put down other guys for doing things differently. He doesn’t disrespect others ideas or methods, something that’s a big problem in the gun community. Ultimately we are here to see what HE likes so we can see if it works for ourselves, not for him to tell us what we should or shouldn’t do, or for him to put down others for doing things differently than him.

In prior Alphabet Company videos, I always thought Slade was the best at showing and explaining the how and why. So glad to see this video. Hope there are many more to come. S/C Irregulars has a bright future. Thanks, Slade

I like when he says stuff like "...where I used to work" instead of always naming his old unit. He knows that we all know where he used to work and he still chooses to be professional. Even when he mentions it he is just matter of fact instead of making sure everyone knows. Solid

The man is back!

Oh man. Stoked as all hell to see his page up and running. Love seeing reasons behind why folks run what they run, and seeing Slade explain why he runs what he runs is about as legit as it gets.

Great video, great substance and great hair. Thanks for coming back to post the video and show all of your incredible set up and the reasons behind the set up. Hope to see more!

I’m excited to see you posting content Slade. Been following all the knowledge you put out there since the end of 2019 and I’m just getting into shooting personally but appreciate everything you share for people to know.

Finally, Slade, Slade, and more Slade. All the FOG vids and "Where i used to work" vids, Slade always stood out as the most passionate and engaging guy as far as instruction/explanation, and most of the info of most use seemed to always come from him. Keep uploading us with knowledge sir. It matters!

I never had an understanding of CQC (Footwork, handling, and gear.) until I've seen Slade's videos. That's real knowledge transfer. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart. 🇵🇭🇺🇸

Dudes an Absolute real life warrior!!! Thanks from Kentucky for keeping us safe brother!!!! I mean it, Thank You!!!🙏

Its super dope when the pros drop videos. I try and pick up on everything I can. from foot work to the simplicity of gear and mechanics. Please keep dropping content, it’s really priceless. Just bought the CGS ti can’t wait. Really wish I could get my hands on one of those Ngals.

Slade, thanks for the knowledge / gear drop. Nice to hear the "why" behind people selecting specific gear. Good luck on the channel.

Não tem como nenhum operador deixar de entender os conceitos repassados pelo o Slade, um guerreiro humilde e acima de tudo um excelente operador.

Your knowledge is appreciated, thanks for sharing it with us and it will be awesome to see more content from you! Respect 🇺🇸 Thanks for the video!

Down to earth and a natural teacher. Slade will have a huge following.

I like this guy he seems humble and knows his shit

bring more things like this I really appreciate learning from you man, you have the gift to teach and explain some “why’s” 😅

I like your presentation and also giving your "why' behind your decisions. *other sites saying " it's the best I found" is not a legit reason why something is used. Great job.

Real world experience is priceless. Thanks for sharing that.

Dude keep it coming. Love the detail you put in here.

Keep the content coming Slay. I appreciate you more now that you’re solo. You were the beast at your previous spot.

Slade, thanks for making more content on YT, always good to see your stuff. You had me in stitches brother with the highpoint skit.

Stoked to see you up and running! Can't wait for the wealth of knowledge to be imparted.

Thanks for the Break down Slade, glad youre still uploading! Looking forward for more!

I appreciate Slade has all this knowledge and enjoys teaching but seems to not have an ego and genuinely wants to help.

Simplistic, ergonomic, and awesome!!! You know we are gonna want that stock riser dude!! Production engaged!!

Its the man! Whenever Slade is talking, my ears are open, hope you start to post more.

Excellent video Slade. Can't wait for more videos from you!

Love these build vids from legit warfighters, that have the experience, training and common sense to know what works, more importantly why it works... and what doesn't work. As a civilian, your words carry a lot of weight because of all that knowledge. My preferences in building an AR have definitely shifted pretty massively over the past 5 years or so. I used to be a big fan of co-witness red dots, and running a fixed front sight post too. For whatever reason, I really just liked that sight picture of having the dot sitting right on the tip of the front post. Since then I've gone away from that to a more heads-up shooting style with the scalar-works 1.93" mount, no more fixed front sight either. That has definitely been the biggest change for me, going to a more heads-up shooting posture. It took some time to adjust to the taller height over bore, learning my holds, but in the long run it's been a benefit to my shooting, and my overall comfortability as well. I'm not hunched over and having to hunt around for my sights. That cheek riser piece looks really intriguing though. I dig it. Great video. Thanks for what you do.

This made my night. So very happy you are posting videos. Was interested to see how you set yours up

really awesome content man. love how you explain your whys to everything. great to see you post! thanks as always brother keep it coming!

Glad this guy is back on KZfaq in some way. Content is about to get litty 🔥

Great video, I love the knowledge transfer! Keep'em coming!

I hope you upload more. No frills and you seem like someone that knows what he's talking about. Very articulate speaker too.

It’s very cool to watch these vids-thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience

Thank you for your service 🇺🇸 💪

Glad to see you back Slade.

I appreciate the thorough teaching. You can’t make a 25 minute video because you use clear text, no bs, just straight talk. 😂 I’m saving my pennies for that SCI Six it’s going to be 🥵. Thanks!

Nice simple break down. Glad to see I have almost the exact set up. Guess guys that taught me growing up knew what was up as claimed.

Awesome 👏🏼 can’t wait to see more of your content and how the channel develops

Thanks Slade, great information per usual.

I hope you keep posting. You don't need to do 20 min vids. I love the intro and then the no BS info that is useful!

Thank you, interesting to see your thought process for your setup.

Song is Alcest - Sapphire for anyone wondering. Cool video.

Interesting to see how the young ones run it-always a student,eager to learn 👊🏼

Great content - glad you're posting. Thanks for sharing the knowledge!

I have to say that was the most badass looking C9 I've ever seen. That comp with the stupid mag extension unironically looks dope. Also great video, I loved the input you gave on getting a proper check weld because I feel that is being overlooked on a lot of modern setups.

Cool little vids, as a graphic designer I love the edit, typos and titles. It's neat and very clean. Quality content and no BS! I'd love to see more content. I just received my FEER v2, can't wait to try it out. Take care

Tried your technique of switching the rear sling mount to the right side of the stock and made a huge difference! Awesome content and can’t wait to see what’s next.

Nice to finally see an upload! Keep ‘em coming Slade!

I was only able to get one of the letters t shirts and was pissed when y'all parted ways, but then I found your content and was super stoked once you started posting stuff. Can't wait to those dope SCI shirts, I had to order all of them. Glad you're doing your own thing now. 🤘✊️🤙

awesome info man i agree with the mount behind the hand more videos brotha waiting patiently

Priceless info. Thank you! 🇺🇸

Keep it going slade you have alot of support behind you brother!

Just found you. Thanks for your service. Awesome setups. 🇺🇸

Man this content is so fucking sweet, it's elegant and straight to the point. I definitely like the cheek weld explanation.

Glad to see CGS getting a nod from a legit dude they've deserved for a long time.

Good to see ya healthy and hydrated dude! Keep the content coming brotha…

Awesome to hear my favourite Alcest song as a background music to this great video!

Minus the can and the laser, my setup is exactly like this one. Working on getting the funds for the goodies up front. Very nice setup, sir. You have helped me confirm which can I want now. Thanks bro 🙏

KZfaq can't stop this man.

the Hi-Point bit was spot on man.

As a Cali resident I appreciate you going over the CA compliant options as well haha.

Great vid and explorations. Nice Noveske 👍🏻

Couldn't hit that like button fast enough! Navy vet here as well, thank you for all you've done for our nation and keep the videos coming! 🇺🇲👍

Thank you for being more detailed in your rifle setup video

Thanks for sharing. Subscribed anticipating more reasons why videos.

Very excited to see your first hand high tier operating experience in a very relatable personality rather than the “operators turned KZfaqr”…subscriber for sure. 🤙🏽

Straight forward and to the point. Subscribed

Great video man! Quality through and through, and the man has jokes! Lookin forward to some more stuff dude

always nice to see Alcest in videos.

We need more videos from you man keep posting!!

I just stumbled upon your channel and ill be honest the first vid I wasn't impressed but second vid I watched I realized you're the real deal. I cant wait to hear your take on more stuff. You have well earned a new follower my friend. please make more content!!!

I appreciate your time Aqua Man!

I’m still dying that you put a red dot on a hi point. Bless your heart, keep these videos coming!

Sick video! Thanks for making it happen!

Definitely ready for more content I’ll share this channel anywhere I can to get you out there I know y’all don’t do too many private courses, but dam just to meet y’all in person would be a real honor Going into surgery soon wish me luck

Glad you got your channel running bruh content always on point

Solid video, thanks for sharing your knowledge.

556 is amazing with eotech...cgs mod and 2 stage trigger a must! Sweet as hell 💯

I've been seeing the behind the scenes on IG. Stoked for what you and your partners have in store for the future. 🤟🏽

Glad to see I’m not the only one who intentionally doesn’t run an ambi safety. Nice video.

Way excited to see you dropping content here. Always f*kin forward brotha 🏴

Keep posting! This channel is going to blow up!

Seal Team Jesus.

Love it man! Keep it up. So glad I found you boys

Love this sling setup totally agree for me it gets in the way

SLADE x NOVESKE The best combo in the game!

After seeing the Goobers releasing that "cheek riser", its nice to see the OG video here... love you Slade

Heard Alcest in the background; huge fan. Dude your teaching style mirrors mine when I was a drill sergeant; simple, relaxed, engaging, straight to the point. Can’t stand hoity toity wordy instructors.

He's back with the content! Love this!

1:25 I love that tactical Jesus said “you can crucify me” 😆. Love the video 👌🏽

Bitter sweet to say this. Wished I joined and served. I was too busy paying bills and preventing my family from losing our home. I was holding up a different fort so to say. I am proud as a latino for any vet or current/ future service members. Kudos!

Love to see you here again brother.

Appreciate your insights and really loved your “Fundamentals: Shooting, Stance, Presentation videos also! 🇺🇸

The fact that you milled a hi point for a red dot just as a joke is commitment

If anyone is wondering what that music is in the background. It's a band called Alcest. They are BAD-ASS. The song is Sapphire. I recommend the version they did with Perturbator. Perturbator being ANOTHER badas artist. One of my top 10s

My god. A SRO on a high point. Awesome!

Dude, glad to see this. Haven't seen any of your content since I quit the Gram. Hope you and yours are doing well 👍
