I watched this show last night, it wasn't too bad actually. Seeing a Saiga 12 shotgun with a suppressor on tv is crazy though. Even crazier is the price: $2500... ouch.

The daughter isn't really too entertaining but she's kind of cute I guess, so it's a wash in that regard.

Some of their stuff is a bit too tacticool for me( (doesn't mean I wouldn't own it though) but this is something on my wishlist:

The episode I watched focused on a modified Saiga, "The Master Key". a stockless, shortened barrel, Saiga with a muzzle break that is attached to the bottom of an AR-type weapon. Nice.

But like drunktomjoad said, maybe a bit too tacticool.

I wasn't too impressed to want to watch it.

I'd prefer OUR resident FFL get a show :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

What strikes me funnny is how all the shows about guns and the modern military have that same generic hard rock music as their theme. The "duh duh...dut dut..duuuuuuuh" it cracks me up. Yes when I go to the range to shoot, I am going to crank out a boom box and as I get out of the car I'll switch it on "duh duh...dut dut....... :lol:

If you, or I, or We watch it, it's not only a right wing backed show. But I can imagine the drown out of the idea that "We" who would be watching "supporting" would come from the loud mouth right who would think they are the only one's "supporting" it. So, feck it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm with ya.

It's probably a safe assumption to make that Red Jacket Firearms and the Discovery Channel along with its advertisers are all far right. On the other hand, every single thing you watch whether it is the Daily Show or one of the fake liberal pundits on Msnbc are also propagandizing you in their own corporate approved way (else they wouldn't be there).

So for me, if I have a choice of watching someone shoot a suppressed S12 or a fake liberal like Lawrence O'Donnell... well that ain't a hard choice at all.

In all honesty, the Sons of Guns show and Red Jacket themselves aren't that impressive (especially when you consider their prices) but I'm still going to watch for shits and gigs.
