Forgotten Weapons’ Ian McCollum on Brutality Matches, Historical Guns | Gun Talk Nation

Ian McCollum has spent 15 years on YouTube explaining why weird guns matter — and it turns out he also shoots them in ice water in Finland. 

Ryan Gresham sits down with the Forgotten Weapons host to talk about how he got into historical firearms, why the story behind a gun matters as much as the gun itself, what actually happens at a Finnish Brutality match, and how Headstamp Publishing is quietly putting out some of the most beautiful firearms reference books ever made. 

Plus the 800-page book about Tiger Stripe camo that somehow makes complete sense once Ian explains it.

This Gun Talk Nation is brought to you by Ruger, Range Ready Studios, Remington Ammunition, and Shooting Sports Life.
