Nope. My wife asked me if I went get their autograph.

I told her I was beyond that point in my life and I don't think there is anyone whose autograph I want, much less some people who work at a gun shop.

All I know is that if I win the lotto any time soon I will be going spend an absorbent amount of money on new toys in their shop. I would love a suppressed MP5

Watching now. Is that saiga conversion really that common of a thing? Is that a left over Brady law gun?

Definitely. Even at 87 he can still bring it with that flame thrower.

That was scary as shite. Flame throwers are insanely fricking dangerous. Pressurized flaming napalm on a person's back. That ole dude was in heaven though.

I loved it when the old dude told them "I don't care how much it weighs" He definitely got his rocks off with that thing and was able to smoke the bunker where as will was shooting too high and not even touching it.

Why did he need help to put together a weapon system that has been around for nearly 100yrs? I have not been impressed by anything on this show so far. I did enjoy the flamethrower portion but this guys has not amazed me.

i guess the guy is used to working with the smaller caliber weapons. If you miss a step on an M2 .50 cal, you can prettymuch kiss the operators arse goodbye! That "specialist" was freakin annoying. Maybe the producers put him up to it. You know how un-real "reality" TV is!

I think some of ya'll are missing it. I think I'm caught up on the DVR'ed episodes, but I have yet to see where he's taking credit for being the first do do any of this.

He has said that he could be the first to bring something to market (perhaps locally), but not like he has ever said he was the first. In fact, most times he references the original product and when it was first developed.

Get off his back. It is a TV show for Christ Sake about a local man done well. Enjoy it (or don't) for what it is.

Her whining causes me to fast forward the DVR. And am I the only one that senses a rather "creepy" daughter/dad relationship here?

Old dude was crotched low in a tactical stance and all. That was awesome ! You could see in his eyes how excited he was when he asked if he could strap it on and fire it. He looked like a 5 yr old boy asking his Dad to shoot a .22 for the first time.
