    It's interesting and innovative. Kinda like mythbusters for shooters.

    Yeah I watch when I can. I find very interesting. It's 1000% better than top shot.

    I watch an like some of his ideas and some things leave me wondering what the heck for.
    I also watch top shot more for the different shooting then anything else.

    Update. Watched again tonight.


    Tonight they peed away an hour re-inventing a single shot zip gun version of the 5 Shot Taurus Judge. Just to whack an alligator. Waste of bandwidth. I wouldn't buy a cap-gun from these video bozos.

    I've seen it twice. I wasn't impressed. It seems like he trys to make a big deal about reinventing things that have already been done. One that I watched he was attaching a shotgun to an AR-15. He made it seem like he was doing something new.

    Yeah, I've watched it a few times..........not impressed. FWIW, not much impressed with "Top Shot" either. In a way it's kind of refreshing to see shooting and guns presented in a favorable way on TV but I'm thinking they should be able to come up with something better

    I kinda like Topshot. I don't like the drama but sometimes you gotta take the good with the bad. Mostly I just like the creative ways they come up with to shot but also like the different guns and such.

    Will seems like a drag to work for. The show equally poor.

    The Thompson SMG "revamp/update" did them in for me...I almost vomited.... Sorry, but a Picatinny rail and black Krylon over that beautiful walnut stock just doesn't work.

    They have good shows and bad....Mostly bad, but....

    The Flame Thrower restoration was a good one, but I do wish they had gone more in detail with it.

    The bazooka that shot model rockets was kind neat and the silenced shotgun was pretty cool as well.

    The rest were basic to the point that a trunk monkey could have done it.


    They really need to get more technical with the builds that they do, or it will just be another top shot show.......meh

    My shooting buddy and I are of divided opinions. He thinks the show is just about the best thing since beer in a can and I watched it a time or two on his recommendation. I found the "big dog" in the shop to be annoying and figured we wouldn't get along all that well if we had to work together any length of time. In my opinion they do not represent the shooting fraternity very well.

    I watched it for the first time last night. It was ok. At least they didn't have guys running around throwing stuff and acting like little kids like Orange County Chopper. I've watched a few episodes of Ice Road Truckers, Swamp loggers and The Deadliest Catch. None of them get watched much. Antiques Road Show. Now that's a show! I don't even know what's on the TV for the regular season shows but............ that's why there's more than one channel on a TV. Not everybody is the same.

    Thumbs up

    I have watched several episodes and the best is where they mounted a shotgun on a four wheeler for a disabled Marine so that he could hunt hogs. This alone justifies the show for me.

    How's that hope and change working for you?
