What shows do you specifically mean in your thread? I like "Top Shot" on History channel, and the "Host"- Aussie Colby ---- whatever his last name is, was one cool dude on the Survivor show (which I think is pure Horse&^%$!!I also love my old worn blued steel and walnut shotguns and rifles, and when I first saw the POS weapon- the Army's M16 in 'Nam I puked-- still do today. Give me a Garand any day, or a M-14 thank you!! As far as the great 1921 Thompson SMG- yessiree- I've done a few with 20 rd. stick mags, but never a 50 or 100 rd. drum mag-- I also appreciate the quality of the early in WW2 issue German weapons-our 'Nam era "Pig" the M-60 MG in 7.62x51 NATO was a copy of the German MG-42 in 7.9mm (aka- Hitler's Zipper or Hitler's Zip Gun) for his high cyclical rate of fire. If the Krauts had the Stellite barrel liners for their MG 42's- well anyway!! Before I die I want to fire a Schmeisser SMG 9mm Parabellum with 32 rd. magazine and a Dragunov and a Barrett sniper rifle- and maybe a C96 Mauser Schnellfeuer in 9mm!!
