Greg Kinman (born Шаблон:Birth based on age as of date), known online as Hickok45, is an American YouTuber who films videos about firearms. Hickok45's videos also appear on Full30, a video streaming platform dedicated specifically to firearms.

Videos

Hickok45's videos demonstrate a wide variety of firearms, both historic and modern, and typically present an in-depth discussion of the history and functionality of each firearm. His early videos often showed him shooting Old West weaponry and wearing cowboy outfits. Over time, he expanded his presentations to include a greater variety of weapons, while emphasizing safety. He tends to prefer Glock pistols over those of other manufacturers. While most videos feature Greg, with his son John filming, John has occasionally appeared in videos as well.

Hickok45 has become famous for videos in which he shoots pumpkins with firearms, destroys watermelons and two-liter soda bottles, or cuts down saplings and Christmas trees using various guns. These videos have appeared in media in Vietnam, France, India, and Germany.

In 2010, Jay Leno showed a Hickok45 pumpkin carving video on The Tonight Show.

Personal life

Greg Kinman attended Austin Peay State University in Clarksville, Tennessee, where he played center position on the college basketball team for two seasons, 1970–71 and 1971–72. He decided to forgo his senior season as he felt that basketball would not become his profession; he also noted that he was unable to gain weight. College sports records indicate his height as Шаблон:Convert. He has declared himself to be 6'8" in one of his videos.

Kinman is a retired English teacher. In 2015, he was featured in a webinar by distance learning organization the Sonoran Desert Institute.
