Bryan Samms used be be IFB, but changed because his kids wanted to use a different version. The biggest problem I have with Samms is that he a conviction against his members using the KJV.

To be honest I just had to go back and watch the last couple minutes to see what you were referring to.  

I prematurely cut the video off right towards the end after he described his thoughts about other translations and which one he chose, so I stopped right before his story about the visiting Pastor using the KJV.

I completely agree with you that there is a huge difference between him "preferring" to use a different translation and him having "convictions"  against using it all.

Im just speculating but I had the impression that there is more context of how he formed those convictions against the KJV bible than just the reasons in the video.

Yes thats the clip from about 16 minutes into the original video you posted.

I guess the first time I watched it the way he used "conviction" just didn't click in my mind because he had just said something about Eugene Petersons Message "bible" right before that and I assumed was gonna keep rambling on different translations.

But I for sure agree with girl who originally posted it on Twitter when she described it as "scorning" the KJV rather than decision for his kids.

BTW, Pastor Stacey Shiflett is a great pastor that stands up against abuse in churches.
