    "American Guns" on The Discovery Channel

    Another reality TV show with a firearms theme.

    Here's the link to some of the promo: http://realitytvwebsite.com/RealityT...y-Channel.html

    There's just so much to say but I just can't seem to find the words...

    Looks just as bad as "american hoggers".

    Jesus either tv producers think the avg. joe is a moron, or the avg. joe is a moron.

    I just dont get why or how people can watch these fake "reality" tv shows. I mean have you ever seen those repo shows on trutv? They're worse than pro-wrestling!

    I'm betting on the latter.
    It's hard to be a ACLU hating, philosophically Libertarian, socially liberal, fiscally conservative, scientifically grounded, agnostic, porn admiring gun owner who believes in self determination.

    I did a transfer thru that shop back in '08. When I went it to pick up my pistol the lady attending me was wearing and Unkle Mike's paddle holster on her front right pocket and was carrying a Beretta 92FS with the hammer cocked back and not on safe(of course). That setup looked like it was about to fall out of her pocket. When I advised her that her pistol was not on safe she responded, "I know. It won't shoot otherwise". I could not get out of there fast enough.

    Judging by the picture on that page this show will
    A)Not last very long (Hopefully. Not to mention it's technically already being done on the same channel )
    B)Further the notion that all gun owners are retards and morons (if what Dozer mentioned is a continuing theme here).
    Of course seeing as how no-one has actually seen the show yet.....

    Why is it that all these tv producers can think up is "reality" based rehashes? Why can't they make a REAL show about custom gun manufacturing? It would be nice to have something like a more in-depth 'modern marvels' style show where they take you through the actual details of producing the guns. It would be much more informative than watching family members bitch at each other, and it could still be kept interesting.....

    I would love to see a show recreation of The New Yankee Work Shop, With a skilled craftsman of Norm Abram caliber doing custom gun work.
    I could care less on seeing guys horse playing and drama
    But I guess that is what dimwits want to see now.

    I have come to believe that the Discovery Channel is like the live news broadcasts at a horrific crime or natural disaster event. They find the dumbest, strangest looking person and do an interview. You are at a crime scene and there are 20 guys in suits and 1 guy in coveralls with no shirt on with a load of chewing tobacco in his mouth and he's getting the interview!

    Show looks like it may possibly be even dumber than Sons of Guns. I'd smash the daughter though.
