how about it, if they can have a channel for golf and racing and soap opera and stuff how about a channel just for guns
we could call it the tnfn (the national firearms network). it would be like american shooter all day long [:D] what do you guys think |
|
I remember getting something from the NRA asking for a donation about a month or two ago. Can't remember if it was for a show or a channel though...guessing show.
|
|
think of it we could have a shows for hanguns, concealed carry, rifles, deffensive shooting, machine guns, shotguns, blackpowder, competition coverage, reloading and a special show for our favorite black rifle.
it would be the only channel I would watch. we need to find a way to make this happen starting to drool just thinkin about it [:D] edited to say hell yeah it have pop, and bang, and boom and ratta tat tat too [}:D] |
|
Make it - 'The Weapons Channel', have nothing but weapons ranging from A-10 Warthogs, ICBMs, firearms, cutlery, etc. There'd be tons of stuff that could be aired.
[heavy] |
|
that would rule. course we need a gun based soap opera. days of our ars
|
|
What a bright idea! Anybody considered making a business plan and obtaining some capital to make this a reality.
Think about it. If enough interested people got involved we might just be able to make it a reality. I cannot think of a better way to promote our views and diminish the antis arguments. I'd be willing to get involved, would any one else? |
|
I wonder how many democrats would want to buy airtime for their campaign commercials on 'our' new network? [:D]
|
|
Instead of a soap, how about a couple 5 minute shows (shown ever couple hours) about whats happening on ar15.com. Today in GD we have an interesting discussion about bla bla blah. [:D]
|
|
I think they already have something along these lines, its called the history channel. Really to make it perfect just combine the history channel with OLN.

Who wants to guess what kind of Parental Advisory rating a channel like that would get?
|
|
maybe we can get this tacked up
ya never know. if we could get the funding how great would this be. |
|
GTV can run bad re-runs of the non-hit comedy Sledgehammer! Remember that show?
Now THATS quality television!!!!!!!! |
|
Don't forget about the chicks with guns segment every night after 10pm! Anyone remember that 80 tape with the topless bimbos shooting full auto?
Gotta love America! (Would this be one of those shitty satellite access channels or in "the package" with CNN, MTV and USA? Not that it would matter...) |
|
bull dog where do we start [:)]
maybe we could get it right next to speed vision and oln, either that or right in between the histor channel and the discovery channel |
|
I don't know if this is still relevant, but check out the [url=www.gunownerstv.com]Shooting Express Network[/url].

don't know if it is or not but I will sure find out. thanks though
|

Well our soap opera could be that old show "Sledgehammer". The other hit show would "Bikini Girls With Black Rifles" But the all time hit would our own version of Survivor. Use your imagination for the last one.

Hell Bulldog, I got a few good idea's for a series. Can Call it REDNECK-N-GUN's
A comedy/Information show, Starring me and my FRIEND MR.GAME WARDEN. Yeah, I am from Georgia, Have longish hair, beard,JACKED UP 4x4 with a shotgun behind the seat, Coondogs beagles the whole nine yards,I am MR. Redneck, But My friend really is the game warden, A Dudly Dooright looking fellow. We could do shows on How to fish for bass with a 3006.... ANd then show why you should not, when Mr. GameWarden shows up, How to spot light, And then why you shouldnt. An educational show of sorts, with a funny twist. Man I can come up with several hundred shows, Hell I have lived them in my 38 years.. Ya'll be good now ya-hear |
|
Don't we already waste enough time here? You want to add to the trouble with GoatboyTV? No thanks unemployment isn't that much fun...
|
|
I am sure that there are probably alot of small shows from around the country that would love to be syndicated. we would still have to come up with some more new shows but I volunteer for to host or help in as many as possible. [:D]
particularly the rifle handgun machine gun and ar shows [:D] |
|
when do we get the gun channel or did this idea fall flat on its face?
|
|
Don't forget to add any movie with lots of guns. This could be Die Hard series, anything by Steven Segal, Arnold Schwartzannager(sp?), Van Damm, etc.
We'll have the black rifle show, the deer rifle show, the shotgun show, the pistol show, the revolver show, the knife show, the concealed-carry show, the open-carry show, the SHTF show, the how-to-kick-dirtbag-anti-gun-reps-out-of-office show, the reloading show, the competition-shooting show, the ammo show, the fighter-jet show, the tank show, the nuclear weapons show... This could go on for a while. If you could find enough guys to do the shows, you could fill up a lot of airtime. |
|
Sounds great, perhaps we could get a little help from our friend Jim Scouten, I am sure he could fill in the blanks to let us know what it would take to get on the air.
|
|
I can see the 3rd episode now. Guns of the Gangsta. Not to be confused with the history of the tommy gun.
|
|
Here's a show... ".223 Is Company "
Janet and Krissy can pillow fight over who gets to carry the Colt Shorty. |
|
I second the motion for Chicks with Guns! We would also need a Celebrities with Guns bit as well.

LOL Its all anbout getting sponsorships and proving you have a built-in audience, (I am working on pitching a show to Discovery Channel, you have NO IDEA how much work this is.) I would go OFF on this if it ever took off. I think you would have to go small first, try to get a couple shows on Outdoor Life Network, aka American Shooter, the whe you get enuff of 'em, split and form your own network. Bulldog OUT |

I know a little about TV production and what it costs to do it, and it isn't cheap. Who is going to actively advertise on a gun network other than gun related companies? Any non-gun company would end up getting pressured by the Brady Campaign and Million Moms. Remember the Alamo, and God Bless Texas... |
