she holds a desert eagle, then puts a small hole in the paper. flashes back and she is holding a beretta. Seriously? glad I don't pay for tv, and very ashamed something like this is on tv.

Well, they did say they were going to perform a modification.

 

[Gamez235]

Holy, balls. She even sl*tted it up and tried to be all sorts of ooglely and what not and blew her street cred.

 

[glock34]

It did not take this to make that show a fail

 

[Sylvain]

I have seen this episode like yesterday I think and I didn't notice!
I was impressed that she could manage the recoil but here you obviously see that it's fake.
Why would they even fake that?
I have seen the whole show online and noticed other fake things (like always on TV) but missed this one.
In one episode they use a grenade launcher with "high explosive grenades", and you can clearly see that they shoot blue training rounds and that the explosions are staged.
I understand that they would do that for safety reasons but for the DE it's clearly just to try to make her look like a badass when she's only shooting a 9mm.

weak sauce... this show kind of reminds me of 'pimp my ride' with the stuff they do be outlandish and not practical in most situations

 

[superjoe76]

According to her FB page (yeah, I know) she hurt her wrist when she originally shot it and she didn't want to shoot it anymore. The producers still wanted to capture her shooting so they subbed with that, the mistake was letting it be seen! So she says.

 

[Jeremiah]

that show fails in a lot of ways. this one was glaring.

Because she is getting paid a lot of money to fake it. After the initial pilot episodes of these "reality" shows are successful, they turn into carefully scripted shows for the ratings, with paid actors just like regular tv.

One other thing that is fake about the show is how they always come up with new already invented designs.

Like on the "flashlight gun", they find a airsoft version of the Magpul "flashlight gun" and Will says "If we could do like the toy but with a real gun that would be a first".
He obviously didn't know (or did he?) that the airsoft thing was already a copy of the real deal.

They came up with an inferior design and called it a "new" design.

The problem is that they are not real actors even if they try to act, half of the time you can tell that there lines sound really fake.

Bingo...almost like, well, you know, films that have a name that sounds like "corn."

Desert Eagle Stock from 1999, one of the various stocked desert eagles that was on the market prior to their claims

Wasn't there a 20-some page thread about this episode a few weeks ago?

So what's real about the show?

Also all their custumers always come like one week before they need their gun done.
Like a guy just remenbers that he has a competition at the end of the week so they need to fix his gun really quick.
They never call two weeks before.

I dont even know if they people on the show are real gunsmiths and gun experts.
When I see that half of the time they dont wear safety glasses or ear protection when they test a gun they just built "for the first time", or when you see that they all have poor trigger discipline.
I remenber one episode where Will picks up two M16 out of a table, pointed them both at the rest of the crew with both his fingers on the triggers without even checking if any of those guns were loaded.

I would be scared to work around them when I see how they handle guns half of the time.

 

[the1kidd03]

not only that but from an engineering/machining stand point.....the crap their "mechanical expert" does.....would NOT take the amount of time and work that they say it does..........a suppressed shotgun had been done before, and internally suppressed AK was an easy enough design for semi experienced gun guy with machining knowledge........this show has been nothing but FAIL IMO.....does nothing but present a bad image to majority of gun owners....what makes it worse is the fact that there are enough gun ignorant people watching it to keep them on the air

 

[chandler10r1]

This makes me question the entire show.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

No wonder you guys hate this show so. Now I understand.

 

[JetGirl]

then puts a small hole in the paper.

You forgot "and hits the bull with both eyes shut. Twice."

According to her FB page (yeah, I know)

Screen shot in my first link (below)...

The problem is that they are not real actors even

And the "owners" are just people off the street...addressed in second link (also below)...
