History Channel Top Shot...

Now, name a viable anti-gun reality show.

NBC Nightly News...
Obama press conference...
New York Time editors meeting...

 

[HICKMAN]

Yea but they are going to expect those nifty exploding targets and be like "WTF why didn't it blow up like they showed on Top Shot, I bought that same gun they used!"

then we can introduce them to tannerite

 

[Ahab]

Forget tannerite, introduce them to my friend Joe's Boomershoot. Boomershoot!

Love the quote: "I don't know why everyone does not share my delight with explosives. If they don't, it has to be some abhorrent character defect."

i like Pete. hes just the kind of guy that I like to have as a friend. Our personalities are alike. I also like Ian. I was rooting for kelly until he became a cry baby with the rest of red team.

still im wanting Caleb to win as my #1 pick.

But, you will get a better understanding of just how badazz a few of those guys are at their game

Everyone is good at their own game in their own back yard. If their not, they switch games.

I said viable!!!

Part of the draw is getting 16 guys, well 15 guys and one gal, who are absolute king stud at what they do and throwing them into a sealed system for a month, where their only interaction is with each other and their only activity is competing with each other. That'll cause flareups every time.

Which holds zero interest for me.

I really enjoy watching JJ, even when he's just in the background. He's always impressed me, with both his shooting and his personality. I think both have shined so far. I told my wife that if it weren't for the "reality" side of the show, he would be my hands down favorite to win. But because of the "reality" aspect, I see him with a huge bullseye on his back as a threat.

So far, no matter the weapon, he has delivered. Granted he has had to sit out a couple team competitions, but his performance on the bow was a prime example that he knows how to handle the pressure and make it count... and with something w/o sights or a trigger, too. I got a chuckle out of the AR practice when he commented he really didn't know much about rifles, and what they showed of his stance kinda backed that up that he wasn't doing what most would call the "right" way to do it, but then he just absolutely burned down those plates.

Which holds zero interest for me.

The "reality" aspect has zero interest for me, too. But I watch for the segments like I describe above. And my wife has been watching when I have it on, so it's a chance to watch tv together and still see 'some' shooting.... DVR and fast forward gets me past some of the house stuff. (I can't FF past it all, or the wife would probably leave the room). I never did figure out what the younger fella said to PO the other guy til I came across it online. [seemed like a funny comment to me...].

WAHAHAHAHAHA

very true. "security"

rvb, I think one of the things that impressed me personally about JJ was his athleticism. He strikes me as the kind of guy that's dedicated and focused so that if he had picked up a baseball glove instead of a gun as a kid he'd be playing in the majors right now. Some people are just good at stuff, and then when those people have the dedication and discipline to hone their natural gifts? Watch out.

 

[POC]

Has the ?insurance? business picked up since the show started?

Well, naturally he impresses you . . . he's one of my cousins.

Hey, is he an actual special agent for Dept. of Homeland Security, or a contractor who does firearms training for them? For some reason, I think I read something on the history channel web site aboud DHS or maybe it was one of the captions on one of the episodes I saw.

When I met him last year, I felt exactly the same way.

And for the record, JJ does have a badge. He is a federal LEO, not a contractor.
