He was one of the few OG guntubers to actually have a hard rule of not mixing political or cultural opinions, views or charged rhetoric or lingo in with his discussion of firearms.

In addition to that, he had far more practical experience than many other guntubers, had far, far more practical advice regarding firearms than most guntubers, and had an exceptionally direct and effective communication style, with plain language and simple yet accurate demonstrations.

Most (not all, but most) other popular guntubers are highly political, brash, and edgy, highly commercialized themselves and basically turned into gigantic spectacular overproduced shills for whoever is sponsoring them, and participate in creating and maintaining a culture of continuous conspicuous consumption for firearms, akin to FOMO... or they just had no clue what they are talking about.

Basically, Paul came across as a disciplined range master with a subdued yet wry wit, amidst a sea of overly cocksure, foolhardy guntubers with more money and ego than sense, who he'd likely ban from said range.
