Tales of the Gun
Tuesday , February 06 11:00 PM-12:00 AM
Guns of the Commandos
From the Thompson and Sten submachine guns of the 1940s to modern, ultra-compact M-16 SP automatic carbines, the commando has always relied on an impressive array of standard issue and exotic firearms. Today, these highly-trained shock troops are called Special Operations Forces, but expert use of weapons remains their stock-in-trade. We'll look at the origins of the modern commando, his weapons, and special training.
Get to see Blackwater Training Center, MK 23's, Silenced AR's.

Aw, man... I wish I still had cable.... Too bad you can't just pay for the channels you want.

Tales of the Gun is a great show, I urge anybody who can watch it to do so! It will definately expand your knowledge of guns and their history.

Every now and then, I wish I had cable. Then I get over it at the end of the month when no bill arrives in the mailbox.

I did not notice that you said Feb 6th, I turned it on tonight and didn't know why it was on guns of gangsters. Good episode, but I have seen it about three times. Looking forward to the commando's episode.

I saw this episode the first time it was on and it's one of the better shows they've put out. You get to see some operators at Blackwater shooting school with MK 23's. The M16 SP is a trip. Worth a Watch.
