If that's even possible. It's bad enough that the fatass DB "owner" always changes his accent between folksy cajun/indian/hispanic based on what scene their shooting, and his annoying troll faced daughter stealing all the screen time she can get but they don't even own Red Jacket. Turns out Will and Stephanie lost their FFL in 2009 and were forced to turn over the business to Charley/Joe/Vince. So the entire show is based on Will being a slave driver when in fact Charley/Joe/Vince could tell him to GTFO. This fakery was the last straw sirs, the last straw.

LINK

quote:

It’s actually a bit more complicated than that, and the TMZ link doesn’t exactly explain much. Here’s the story of how Red Jacket Firearms, the shop from Discovery Channel’s Sons of Guns show lost (and regained) their FFL license. In 2009, the ATF does a routine check of the shop, and lo and behold their books say that they have some guns that they don’t actually have. That’s generally a no-no. Now, from Arfcom and other sources we find that Red Jacket Firearms LLC, the actual legal entity featured in the show was founded in 2010 by some of the gunsmiths featured as “employees” on Sons of Guns. Those employees were the legal business owners and the licensed persons responsible for maintaining the shop’s FFL and keeping the shop in compliance with federal regulations. Will, the “star” of Sons of Guns is/was an employee of Red Jacket Firearms LLC as is his daughter. Will losing his FFL actually happened before the show premiered; the business entity that was presented to the viewing public by Discover as Will Hayden’s business actually was the LLC that was jointly owned by several of his “employees.” The reason this is all coming to light right now? One of the employees that was the owner of the LLC has decided to leave Red Jacket to start his own business.

They just looked it up on the secretary of state website.

It's possible that there is another controling document which would show ownership to someone else.

That being said, in not watching that dumbass show

The more I watch it, the more I realize that Will is the biggest arse on TV(Starting to rival Paul Sr) and Stephanie is the most annoying person on TV. She always tries to act like a badass.

It's a stupid fricking show, not entertaining in the least bit. The guns are stupid and impractical, the people are annoying as frick and there is nothing funny about anything they say or do.

My son likes it, so we watch it. Otherwise, it is rather pointless and has far too much added drama.

I was into it season 1, but it got stale really quick for me

I hated how Will is always bitching at Vince when Vince is the only one actually doing work.

That's pretty funny if true that Will isn't really their boss

It pretty much makes the show a complete joke that Will is the employee but acts like the owner.

Vince is the one who quit, he posted it on facebook, but deleted it a few minutes later, American Guns is so much better than this show, I still watch SOG, but hate the characters and drama, just build guns please

When will people learn that none of these shows are even remotely real? For Jeebus' sake people. Stop watching them so we can get some better stuff back on tv.

Every "reality" show is scripted & false.

Accept this & then you can just enjoy watching machine guns.

Pawn stars and American Restorations are te only ones I will watch on my own. American Restorations tries to add way to much drama though.

And I'm pretty sure Pawn Stars is falls just short of HC finding items, giving them to actors, and doing some bullshite hassling in front of the cameras. It probably isn't as far away from that as I would like to believe though. Plus, Chumlee is a really bad actor. They should let him be naturally stupid instead of have him reciting lines to make him appear stupid.
