American Guns rip off

[VikingWarlord]

Why is the son a d-bag? He seems like a good, hard working kid to me.

He does, until he opens his mouth. Pretty much everything he says is some snide comment about how awesome he is. Even when he loses "competitions" to his little sister, it's nothing but **** talking.

It looks like some legitimate businessman or woman should open a gun shop as close to this place as possible and give them good old American competition. Now that would make for a good reality show.

That is a lot of money.

this is a lot of money.

This kid can become a site supporter and use the classifieds!

The dollar figure of the guns on any of these idiotic shows are just like the points on who's line is it anyway, they don't mean anything.

I do not like all of the fakeness and the way they rip off people. I wish the guy who had his 870 destroyed would have looked on ingo first. Is there any good gservice
un shows on the outdoor channels? If there are I might have to upgrade my

The guy didn't have an 870 destroyed. The entire story was fake. The guy posted about it online. He's a gun/ammo blogger that responded to a casting call.

Behind the Scenes on "American Guns"

The sad thing is that if this "reality tv" is supposed to help introduce people to the world of guns, it isn't doing much to help perception... The only take away is that ****'s expensive and stuff blows up Rambo 3 style when you shoot it.

Everyone here was raising eyebrows about the 870... What about wasting $2000 on a paint job while trying to figure out how to get a sniper rifle put together for PD/SWAT use. If anything made them look bad, it was that... Almost screwed up the ?$2000? paint job by leaving out a supposed key element. Forgot there was no easy way to mount their pod and had to last minute fab something.

I'm going back to watching Real Housewives of Boise because the people displaying the fake overpriced breasticles are slightly less annoying than the people promoting the fake overpriced guns.

My impression is he is whores his underage daughter out on national TV for profit - yet makes a big deal about how protective he is. Hell - if your some what hot wife wants to parade around on the show dressed that way - I'm all for it - but **** man - tell your daughter to put some clothes on...

What an ass.....

As fas as him being a retired cop....ummmm yeah.... perception is everything.....

Agreed about the daughter. No WAY I would have let my daughters dress like that @ 17yo. And no way in HELL I would put her on a TV show that way, then let the camermen set up shots that show her bent over in short shorts.

One annoyance for me on sons of guns (dunno if American guns is the same) is that whatever they shoot blows up. I'd much prefer a Hickock type setup (YouTube him). Explosions get old after the millionth time they do it. And any gun can shoot a ton of explosive material. That is all.

Also, roadie, your avatar is awesome lol.

So what I got from the link is the guy knew he was being portrayed as a fool. The used care salesman thinks he is doing the gun world a favor by getting guns on TV and oh yes he knows he looks like a fool / jerk also but he does it for money - instantly justified. OK used car salesman if your pimping your family and the monkeys in the basement out for money fine. You have no moral compass. But dont try to convey to anyone its OK because you get guns on TV and guns are cool.

You think the reality TV people went out and looked for some upstanding gun dealers to corrupt? Or did they go out and look for people that would do anything for money? I think the latter. Look at Sons of Guns. They were a gun dealer / manufacturer that couldn't account for X number of guns. You dont think the reality TV people said, Uh now there are some people we can work with. Maybe the reality TV people find these people for the shows and turn them into dancing circus monkeys. The end result is a bad image, period. Like it Hate it, Believe it or know its total BS. The end result is its the WWF with guns and people look at others that are associated with guns and associate them partly with what they see on TV. So the people that know nothing about the world of guns watch this crap and say what a bunch of jerks.

Great like the Anti gun groups didn't need more crap to use against the gun enthusiasts. Whatever floats. But at least on the gun forums lets retain the ability to call them on the BS and not just gaff it off and chant - whatever...

Low cost parts and no need to show off my CNC milling machine... Might as well be watching PBS. Next you are gonna tell me your targets don't explode when you look at them.

Dude, you are 44 years old looking at pics of a girl that was 17 when the pic was taken. You don't find that just a little... off?

 

[SIGguy]

Lol I was just having a conversation with my father in law about this the other day we both love the show we watch it every week but they prices are ridiculous like last weeks episode a guy came in with a rem 870 that he wanted to turn it to a tactical HD shotgun and they said they would put on a adjustable stock ghost ring sights 18.5 " barrel mag extender and a sure fire foregrip and they repainted the receiver and it cost him 1700 dollars to have this all done to the gun he already owned and the worst part about it all was he was so stoked about it
