Great show on the National Geographic Channel titled: "Guns: Machines of War". starts out with the history of the machine gun including the Gatling gun and Tommy gun. Then goes into the M14 and of course the "Black Rifle". Has some really cool computer graphic models of the "deadly fragmentation" of the 5.56 and some interesting design features by Stoner. Finishes with the massive tank killing cannon of the A10 Warthog. Came on @ midnight here today(Fri 13) I checked my cable but it only repeated previously that I can see. If you guys see it you should definitely watch, an hour well spent.

I was hoping it was a new Gov't program allowing people to buy surplused machineguns.

Hey, Ken Elmore from Specialized Armarment was on there, and he's got some cool toys!
Good show, loved it especially the M14/M16 part.
