Fascinating videos on YouTube where jonathon looks at firearms both real and imaginary and demonstrates with sublime gentlemanly criticism, both positive and negative of how they would work, reload, feel and sound, just a fascinating insight into how well or badly the games developers went towards realism and context of how they would be used. He is such an affable man, passionate, informative and a joy to listen too.

Thanks to Jonathan, the truth is that he is a great factor, watching the videos talking about weapons in different video games you can see that he not only knows a lot but also that he has played video games like this before and is able to understand certain mechanics that each game has which makes me feel at ease with every word he says because I do not deny that he knows about weapons but in video games you may need to know other things and he understands and recognizes them perfectly.

I'd seen several videos featuring Jonathan Ferguson which were all excellent. He is a brilliant ambassador for your work, in my opinion. His videos lead me to your Youtube site and to the possibility of contributing to your work. From there I found the live stream on the Azincourt (OK, Agincourt :-) ) diorama. That was an excellent stream too. So, everything you do is excellent so far. The fact that you have a musuem in Yorkshire is a definite plus ;-) But I would have contributed anyway ;-)

Preservation of history's events and mistakes can and will make us more able to prevent future catastrophes, and I can only hope what lies in museums and libraries can be used to safeguard the future. Jonathan Ferguson's numerous appearances on GameSpot's youtube channel have made it clear he both respects and knows his work with love and care. I could think of a donation no more worthy than this. Godspeed, and keep people informed.

Jonathan's "Firearms Expert Reacts" videos on Gamespot are a real thing to look forward to, due to a tremendous amount of effort and passion put into them. Which is surprising considering the frequent consistency of those videos being made. They're not only very interesting, but listening to his expertees is a joy. Especially his detailed reasoning behind why "multiple 50mm machine gun rounds to the head, would be problematic" for example. I think they play a big part in interesting an e

I've been to the Royal Armouries Museum in Leeds several times over the years since it opened and it has magnificent collections, great staff, and is an important historical repository. In a country that unfortunately treats weapons and firearms as something to keep as far away from the citizenry as possible, this as close as most of us can get, so well worth helping to keep them going.
