This video gets to pews up I give more but only have 2 hands
I like most of the BCA and PSA stuff I've purchased. Both companies have great customer service if you run into an issue. My only gripe with PSA is their shipping times. BCA otoh,man, they get the orders out fast. Great groups out of that shorty, and 35 bucks is a crazy good deal. Suggestion, try Gunstreamer as a back up for your channel. They automatically copy all your content to their site for you, and the audience is building over there, slowly but surely. Thanks for sharing, have a great day.
Another great video Brother. Thank you.
