has this been done before?

regardless, this could be big.

I watched about 4 episodes last night and have come to the conclusion that these inbred SOBs are an insult to gun owners.

Episode 1: Hey guys, lets build a gun that folds up into a metal box (ala Magpuls light gun). They go off about how no ones attempted this before and we should do it. They go on and on again about how awesome this would be to have if you were walking your dog down the street or on camping trips. News flash you inbred assholes, a pistol would be a far more effective system than your shitbox. So that was episode 1 of lets be fucking stupid and put it on TV.

Episode 2: Overweight Mexican Security Dude got a major contract for naval protection and needs a non lethal weapon to defend the ship against pirates. So douche nozzle mcimbred decides to create a Russian katyusha rocket system. So they go build this elaborate ghey ass rocket setup that probably cost about $100 and end up charging the guy $5000. They make "home made" bottle rockets and are super awesome yo. These rockets don't fly straight at all and fly all over the place. News flash mall ninja, instead of building hand make bottle rockets, you could have walked down to the fireworks store and bought them for $15. Yeah real innovation you turd burglers. Then homie mcillegal is amazed at how wonderful this is at whopping $5k.

Episode 3: Some semi ok looking woman (about a 6....6 beers) walks into the store with her fudge packer liberal boyfriend/fiance/cover story to buy a 9mm. So owner douche mcfly instead of helping get these people into the shooting world/gun ownership he sends them on their way out of the store. Way to go douche. Now the 6 doesn't have a gun to protect herself and her fudge packing boyfriend is going out with the "guys" on the weekend now.

Episode 4: He great news. Lets take a historic Tommy Gun and complete Tapco the fuck out of it. You know why? Because no ones ever done it before. News flash hill billy jim. Theres a reason people never did it before. Because it's a fucking classic. Where is the ATF when you need a no knock search.

Episode 5: Overweight security dude from #2 is back and helping train the local yokels (I mean swat) and they need a ghey ass door breaching gun. But not just any shotgun. They need it mounted onto an AR because the fat entry dude is too fat to get the fuck out of the way for the rest of the team, they need it on the AR so he can just go straight in. Here a pro tip fatty, just bust through the wall like you were the Kool Aid man.

Episode 6: Top Dog McGee Trainer needs a lightweight carbine that his customers are looking to buy. Final price? $1800. Pro Tip slick, how about buy a standard AR without all the whiz bang shit on it for under 1/2 price.

Overall impressions: Owner - for the love of all thats sacred, buy your daughter a set of braces or a trip to the orthodontist to get her grill fixed. If she's going to be on TV, the grill shouldn't look like a commercial for Chiclets. Head welder guy - seriously if you had as much talent as you said you have, you'd have moved onto place that wasn't producing 3rd world quality shit. Other guys - you've obviously don't amount to anything since I can't think of anything to say.

That was EPIC....

Let me add that RJF is to weapons what OCC is to motorcycles. Sorry Senior, I call 'em as i see 'em. American Chopper was fun at the beginning, but it degenerated into a soap opera with motorcycles as an afterthought.

This is 100% accurate how I feel about the show.

I can't believe that his help is allowed to handle firearms...they all look like felons to me.

i can agree with most of what you said, excepting this.

you can't help everyone, nor is it necessarily a good thing to do so. and selling a gun to some know-nothing liberal that has no idea how to operate a firearm AT ALL, let alone safely, falls into that category for me.

Have you seen the show? Its like American Choppers for firearms. And I just love the made up projects just to have something to do

Come on.

Not only is it not professional gunsmithing, it isn't even hobby gunsmithing.

It's hacksaw, bastard file and hand drill smithing. With no eye protection.

And they spend half the show congratulating themselves for their inventiveness and expertise.

At least when Chip Foose ruins a old muslecar, the work is performed by first rate experts.

Metal work and woodwork is an actual craft. I'd love to see the Red Jacket guys inlet a stock blank.

I don't see anything wrong with her that would generate all this abuse.

Will built a solid Bulgarian 74 and a krink for me about 3 years ago. He does good work. His prices are reasonable. Took a long time to get them completed but it was worth the wait. Sold him my original krink barrel and replaced it with a 16".
He does a great job with email and phone correspondence but he's got a heavy accent that is difficult for this yankee to understand. I would recommend him to anyone.

I do.

The owner, Will, is a bit of a dick. He is not ashamed of this.

That aside, he makes a damn fine AK. I own one, and recommend them to anyone that will listen.

You will be hard pressed to find a better built AK.

ETA: I've never seen the show, and can't comment there, but I've met most of the people that work there and can only assume from the comments that what you see on TV is not the reality of the place and the people.

Will is a little eccentric and a bit of an asshole, but sharp as a tack and makes a damn fine AK. I can't say much about his other guns as I don't have personal experience with them.

I watched about 4 episodes last night and have come to the conclusion that these inbred SOBs are an insult to gun owners.

Episode 1: Hey guys, lets build a gun that folds up into a metal box (ala Magpuls light gun). They go off about how no ones attempted this before and we should do it. They go on and on again about how awesome this would be to have if you were walking your dog down the street or on camping trips. News flash you inbred assholes, a pistol would be a far more effective system than your shitbox. So that was episode 1 of lets be fucking stupid and put it on TV.

Episode 2: Overweight Mexican Security Dude got a major contract for naval protection and needs a non lethal weapon to defend the ship against pirates. So douche nozzle mcimbred decides to create a Russian katyusha rocket system. So they go build this elaborate ghey ass rocket setup that probably cost about $100 and end up charging the guy $5000. They make "home made" bottle rockets and are super awesome yo. These rockets don't fly straight at all and fly all over the place. News flash mall ninja, instead of building hand make bottle rockets, you could have walked down to the fireworks store and bought them for $15. Yeah real innovation you turd burglers. Then homie mcillegal is amazed at how wonderful this is at whopping $5k.

Episode 3: Some semi ok looking woman (about a 6....6 beers) walks into the store with her fudge packer liberal boyfriend/fiance/cover story to buy a 9mm. So owner douche mcfly instead of helping get these people into the shooting world/gun ownership he sends them on their way out of the store. Way to go douche. Now the 6 doesn't have a gun to protect herself and her fudge packing boyfriend is going out with the "guys" on the weekend now.

Episode 4: He great news. Lets take a historic Tommy Gun and complete Tapco the fuck out of it. You know why? Because no ones ever done it before. News flash hill billy jim. Theres a reason people never did it before. Because it's a fucking classic. Where is the ATF when you need a no knock search.

Episode 5: Overweight security dude from #2 is back and helping train the local yokels (I mean swat) and they need a ghey ass door breaching gun. But not just any shotgun. They need it mounted onto an AR because the fat entry dude is too fat to get the fuck out of the way for the rest of the team, they need it on the AR so he can just go straight in. Here a pro tip fatty, just bust through the wall like you were the Kool Aid man.

Episode 6: Top Dog McGee Trainer needs a lightweight carbine that his customers are looking to buy. Final price? $1800. Pro Tip slick, how about buy a standard AR without all the whiz bang shit on it for under 1/2 price.

Overall impressions: Owner - for the love of all thats sacred, buy your daughter a set of braces or a trip to the orthodontist to get her grill fixed. If she's going to be on TV, the grill shouldn't look like a commercial for Chiclets. Head welder guy - seriously if you had as much talent as you said you have, you'd have moved onto place that wasn't producing 3rd world quality shit. Other guys - you've obviously don't amount to anything since I can't think of anything to say.

Exactly.

I have to agree. I had an Arsenal Legion Saiga converted to an AK103 and a preban Maadi fixed stock changed to side folding russian stock and barrel swapped. Prices were great...communication was first rate but the wait was a little long. I don't watch the show and dont care to, But I would use them again.

Her teeth, belly, and voice make me want to vomit when I see her. Especially since she has that "I'm hot shit" attitude. And no need to call me out on the looks of my girl. I've already posted pics in BOTD.

This. I think she looks like a mouse, and she annoys me.

I don't see anything wrong with her that would generate all this abuse.

I never saw the point of heaping abuse on people for the sake of doing it.

It's not abuse, as I'm sure she's a nice person, but it is just my opinion of her.

I did an NFA transfer through them a few years back.

They are fucking idiots.

I will never do business with them again.

has this been done before?

regardless, this could be big.

I watched about 4 episodes last night and have come to the conclusion that these inbred SOBs are an insult to gun owners.

Episode 1: Hey guys, lets build a gun that folds up into a metal box (ala Magpuls light gun). They go off about how no ones attempted this before and we should do it. They go on and on again about how awesome this would be to have if you were walking your dog down the street or on camping trips. News flash you inbred assholes, a pistol would be a far more effective system than your shitbox. So that was episode 1 of lets be fucking stupid and put it on TV.

Episode 2: Overweight Mexican Security Dude got a major contract for naval protection and needs a non lethal weapon to defend the ship against pirates. So douche nozzle mcimbred decides to create a Russian katyusha rocket system. So they go build this elaborate ghey ass rocket setup that probably cost about $100 and end up charging the guy $5000. They make "home made" bottle rockets and are super awesome yo. These rockets don't fly straight at all and fly all over the place. News flash mall ninja, instead of building hand make bottle rockets, you could have walked down to the fireworks store and bought them for $15. Yeah real innovation you turd burglers. Then homie mcillegal is amazed at how wonderful this is at whopping $5k.

Episode 3: Some semi ok looking woman (about a 6....6 beers) walks into the store with her fudge packer liberal boyfriend/fiance/cover story to buy a 9mm. So owner douche mcfly instead of helping get these people into the shooting world/gun ownership he sends them on their way out of the store. Way to go douche. Now the 6 doesn't have a gun to protect herself and her fudge packing boyfriend is going out with the "guys" on the weekend now.

Episode 4: He great news. Lets take a historic Tommy Gun and complete Tapco the fuck out of it. You know why? Because no ones ever done it before. News flash hill billy jim. Theres a reason people never did it before. Because it's a fucking classic. Where is the ATF when you need a no knock search.

Episode 5: Overweight security dude from #2 is back and helping train the local yokels (I mean swat) and they need a ghey ass door breaching gun. But not just any shotgun. They need it mounted onto an AR because the fat entry dude is too fat to get the fuck out of the way for the rest of the team, they need it on the AR so he can just go straight in. Here a pro tip fatty, just bust through the wall like you were the Kool Aid man.

Episode 6: Top Dog McGee Trainer needs a lightweight carbine that his customers are looking to buy. Final price? $1800. Pro Tip slick, how about buy a standard AR without all the whiz bang shit on it for under 1/2 price.

Overall impressions: Owner - for the love of all thats sacred, buy your daughter a set of braces or a trip to the orthodontist to get her grill fixed. If she's going to be on TV, the grill shouldn't look like a commercial for Chiclets. Head welder guy - seriously if you had as much talent as you said you have, you'd have moved onto place that wasn't producing 3rd world quality shit. Other guys - you've obviously don't amount to anything since I can't think of anything to say.

That pretty well sums it up

Seems most people on this thread watch the show. But no one will admit to liking the show.

Ok I may get laughed at for this but this is my opinion of Red Jacket Firearms complete with story. When I saw the show some of the things they built seriously made me go

However on the Thompson that was not a original Thompson SMG it was a semi auto replica. If that had been a real Tommy gun I would have been furious.

But anyway. I got a invite to the Birthday bash a month back in Miss. Now watching the show and talking to them on the phone I didn't know what to expect. Will makes it clear there motto is "If you can dream it we can build it." Or something like that. I've called about doing a MP5 build was told Will doesn't like to deal with them because of quality control of after market parts................It was a original H&K 9MM parts kit.

I also asked about doing a simple Semi Auto Sten build and the same answer.....No we don't deal with those. At that point I was thinking. "Ok they won't even do a sten build? Ok I guess this is not the place for my business.

I had been talking to Glenn aka Flemming (The new guy off and on before the bash and he is a very cool dude and knows what he is doing.) I ended up going and it was certainly a experience. My general opinion on meeting the crew Glenn is a very good dude and very down to earth. Vince the gunsmith is also very down to earth and a pretty funny guy. Steph is really not that bad looking. Sure a lot more pretty girls I've seen but meeting her she does have a decent personality and she's still very doable even with the teeth.

The ones I didn't much care for is Kris who comes off like a bit of a douche and a bit of a fake person when you meet him. The other new guys I forget the names but one of em his first spot on the show was shoveling dog shit......Well I think he needs quite a bit more time on tools and guns.

At the bash if you brought yer own ammo you could shoot the smaller full autos or buy ammo from them and I brought quite a lot of 7.62x39. Well one of the Frankenkrinks they had on full auto was not resetting and I had a feeling I knew what it was and was trying to tell him "Hey I think it's a real simple fix. Can I see it a moment?" But being the expert he was did not listen to me. He never got it working again.

I've spoken to Will briefly a few times and he is a nice guy from what I can tell but he is a lil bit Yokel .

I think the show actually puts all the negatives to the front and the good points about each person get thrown in the trash. It's a reality show let's not forget that and I think Discovery encourages some the asshattery and the way they edit the show is fucking retarded! When I spoke to a couple of the guys about the editing a example being Flem's Semi auto build and all of a sudden they are firing a full auto mg42 and bottom line it's a case of bad editing on Discovery's part.
