I also live in what you would call an "unfriendly" state, and to be honest my own views on firearms would probably be considered "unfriendly" too. I do own a rifle inherited from my grandfather, who taught me target shooting on his property when I was very young. I cherish it and will continue to vote for the right of other people to have those same experiences, but I do not believe that civilians need (or are constitutionally guaranteed) access to the degree of firepower most of your viewers probably do. Frankly, I have no idea why this video came up in my recommendations.
All this to say, even though we likely disagree, I wanted to comment on how professional and educational this video is. I particularly appreciated that you discussed proper safety precautions first, and then repeatedly throughout the video. I also valued the efficient explanation that covers the basics without assuming the viewer has any prior knowledge of use or terminology. You focused on the important info without editorializing, and alluded to your personal views without getting into politics.
This is exactly the kind of video I would show someone I wanted to be more educated on the subject of gun control, so that they know what they're talking about before calling for bans on this or that. And if everyone calling for lightened gun control laws demonstrated the same degree of responsibility as you, I feel like we as a nation would have much more productive conversations.

Great video Duncan. Thank you. Hoping you do one on breaking it down for a general cleaning / oiling. Best wishes, Mark.
You were the first video I watched on how to use a pistol when I first bought a gun. Thanks for these great videos.
More please for any video
Glad to see you back making a video
Why do you Americans have this? Is it to fight your government who has Tanks and F-16's?
