How do we deal with so many people who have steadfast beliefs on firearms that were gained by watching

Starsky and Hutch, Beretta, Kojack and others.  They believe you can thread a silencer on the end of a revolver.

You can shoot a mini-14 for 2 minutes without reloading or jamming. Bad guys all have full auto.... you can

shoot a gun out of a bad guys hand TV is awash with B.S.

Take them to the range and educate them how firearms really work?

If someone's only exposure to guns is through TV, I wouldn't really expect them to know about things like cylinder gap on a revolver and why that wouldn't work with a suppressor.

It's shocking the fallacies that continue to populate tv shows and movies in regard to guns.

When I got into guns, I was blown away afterwards by all the things that were wrong in media.

I say let the libs continue to believe that stuff. All that misinformation will contribute to them losing the eventual civil war.

I get what you're saying, but I don't think any of those shows have aired in the past 30 years, the people that "learned" from them are long set in their ways by now.

My favorite one was on SWAT (i think) , where a couple of our heroes were slinking around using ARs like crowbars to lower themselves and their partner s in and out of attics and such.  Lol

Millions of people still vote Democrat and you think that they have the brains to understand that TV is fake?

I love the Glock safety in the first episode of Walking Dead season 1 and the safety on the revolver in Tucker & Dale vs. Evil.

I love "cocking sounds" foleyed into tv shows and movies when characters are wielding Glocks...
