They couldn't wait to talk to me about it. They never brought up the NFA rules. |

Don't watch much TV and don't have the Discovery channel but after seeing that show being mentioned here recently, decided to check it out online. Watched a few of the preview clips last night and was thoroughly underwhelmed. Frau Winn watched a bit of it with me and her comments were something to the effect of "... what a joke". |

The problem comes in where in urban areas where guns are banned or the urban hipsters/ talking heads / news reporters have preconcieved notions that the producers and editors of the show are amping up. eg: "Hey look, I KNEW that tatted up rednecks loved guns, and look at all that DEADLY SCARY stuff." This is unfortunately ammo for THEIR side, not ours. They look fast and loose and make it seem like it is like getting machine guns from ice cream trucks. I know these guys at the shop are not bad guys, but what they are doing is harmful. The only thing worse would be a "Don's Guns" reality show. |

Any dealer that's worthy of the licence would have made it part of the contract that a basic overview of how NFA ownership is accomplished at some point of the show, it wouldn't take 30 seconds. |

Unless they are concealed which for some reason I doubt it. |

I think the first show show have been dedicated to learning how the NFA works with some of the paperwork procedures and wait times, fees etc. Then once thats cleared then do the next show on building custom guns etc etc...

I watched this show for the first time.
my overall impression is that these guys are a bunch of hacks. not to mention the amount of BS and non-truth's you have to sift through.. I can only imagine what is going through the heads of the clueless. that was the last time I'll waste with that show ETA: The blog for the show has comments (link on pg1) .. seems I'm not alone with my view. |

had the same issue yesterday. a dumb ass libtard was talking about full auto weapons but kept using the term semi auto instead.
I hate when people talk about things they have no clue about or experience with typical libtard - make a statement and decision without knowing the real facts |

I for one enjoyed the show. It didn't go into the processes and steps required like I would have liked to see but going over the legal procedures wouldn't exactly draw viewers in, especially if it had to be stuffed inside 30 minutes of show along with the episode. Like many other shows it's obvious that it's full of canned drama but whatever, that's what Discovery does now for whatever reason.
Furthermore, my libtard and leftwing friends who watched the show seemed more intrigued than turned off or terrified by the show. A couple of them started asking me questions about firearms and shooting and another was disappointed when I had to break it to him that he couldn't purchase a suppressor in California because of the current laws. From what I've seen personally, it seems to be doing a pretty good job at attracting a good portion of the population that would otherwise shy away from a show promoting firearms along with the people that already enjoy them...but just my $.02 |

It goes both ways. I mean, people that are interested in guns, but have no idea about grenade launchers and suppressors, will see that, and might do some research, see what is really out there. I can agree that it surely does make it seem that you can just walk in, and walk out the same day with a grenade launcher and or suppressed weapon.

I don't think it was a M203 grenade launcher I think one of the Discovery Comments nailed it as a 37mm flare launcher. They also pointed out that it was an AR15 not an M16. |

I was thinking- they dont need to necesarily go through the entire NFA procedure but a disclaimer at the beginning of every show that says something like "All weapons and accessories shown on this program are legal and comply with all state and federal laws"
That simple statement in white letters on a black background shown for like 10 seconds would go a long way to putting a damper on some of the libtard comments. |

If you want to be in the cool liberal club, you have to be closed minded and scared as sheep about gunshows, gun stores, and anything to have to do with guns. Even if it purposely goes against your otherwise logical, thoughtful, and open outlook to differing opinions. Liberals, taken at their definition, should be very pro-gun. Only the oppressive tards that they willingly would give their freewill up to are the ones that would logically want to disarm others.
Conclusion: Don't bother engaging in any argument with them. Don't bother engaging the media, as they will twist time and space to make you look like you stuff babies armed with machine guns in your "grenade launcher" and shoot them across the mexican border to fuel the drug trade.

Discovery Channel has chosen to portray Red Jacket like the Ax Men of firearms. They could use a different angle, but they chose to put together the pieces a certain way that insults the firearm community while inflaming the anti crowd.
I'm thinking the "cast" is too naive to notice how they're being portrayed, meanwhile they think they've done good by making a "reality firearms" show. They're being used. The whole grenade thing stinks. |
