Well, we truly are two countries separated by a common language.

The same goes with shooting and hunting. Tastes are different, attire is different, method, style, etc.

The British have no issue with refreshing, reblacking, or refinishing a shotgun. While many Americans have meltdowns over it.

You could go on and on...

Johny's video are entertaining, and he has a way of saying things off the cuff that I find humorous.
I spent a LOT of time in England and Scotland during my 20 year working relationship with British foundries, and the one thing I always got annoyed over, was the ever-present "NIH" (Not Invented Here) attitude. A great deal of my work in the developement of the 'Replicast' process was incorporated into the formal process, but they always found a way to tweak it into taking the credit for it.
