Red Jacket Firearms...Posers & Fools???

[Longitude Zero]

What say the forum...I believe there is too much drama here and they are more posers.

[apheod]

pretty much.

Maybe, but Academy Sports carries Red Jacket AR's for about $1300. I haven't seen it but the guy behind the counter was telling me about it.

One big thing to consider is the show is made in Louisiana and folks there are a little different. Not necessarily in a bad way, just different. I found this out personally. Lots of Drama in real life.

yessuh.

kris is a jackass. i want to punch him in the face everytime he says that.

I don't think it's them. i think the channel and producers play a big big part in that. Drama = ratings.

Fact.

I imagine if someone followed you around 40+ hours a week with a camera filming your every move, they could edit that footage down and portray you any way they wanted. Editing can make a sinner a saint and vice versa.

Lots of drama in real life? Puh-lease.

TV portrays folks the way the Producer wishes to portray them.

The Red Jacket Crew? There place is about 15 minutes away from the house.

I'm so happy Snaggle Tooth and Dufus have found each other.

I wouldn't let them clean my .22

all types of mills and drills and they drill holes with a dewalt hand drill. everything they do has been done before, glock made that flashlight box with the fold out pistol years ago. nobody would work for the loud mouth or the daughter for 10 min

A buddy is in the metal working/metal turning business here in town. RJF is one of his accounts.

They want everything free-using the "It's gonna be on TV w/free advertising" as the reason.

They had my friend spec. in a machine multi-head CNC Mill that would do everything they would ever need. Then they bought another brand of CNC Mill and wound up with roughly $15k in extra bits and doo dads they'll never even use. Joe then wanted that same friend of mine to show him how to use it.

Yep, pretty darned fancy equipment in that shop-yet they're still shown using hand drills at least one time per episode.

Not to mention that daddy and his daughter no longer have FFL's or licenses of anytype. I wonder which of the underlyings FFL they are operating under since Vince told the old man to go frig himself.

I got tired of the show because of the "drama" and "feigned stupidity"(?) AND that they were always "INVENTING" stuff that was readily available or that had been invented years ago. Vince really looked like some kind of sociopath and now he has his own business??

Can't always judge someone on appearances alone. Vince and the other gunsmith... Flynn I think was he name? The veteran. Those two were the only ones with skills. Vince seemed like a pretty stand up dude, although it was a little childish of him to throw **** and walk out when Kris asked him for help on the AR build, even though he was right to be pissed about it.

I like the show and will watch anything involving guns or shooting in a good way...Yes there is too much drama but thats how all the reality shows are... They took the model of American Choppers and have used it on lots of other shows like Gold Rush, Top Shot, Bearing Sea Gold, American Loggers and many others where the family or workers are always yelling at each other and ready to duke it out...

Last nights show was interesting in that they showed behind the scenes views and its a miracle nobody has been killed or injured yet...The camera men have to get real close to live fire and even then do stupid things like walking in front of a loaded canon muzzle, forgeting to have on hearing protection while firing an artillery piece and getting too close to a 4000 degree napalm canon and melting their camera...

Vince was on the show and seemed to get along with Will ok so that must be just TV drama...I found it interesting that Flynn has been in 5 helicopter crashes and survived while in Afghanistan serving as a helo door machine gunner...Thats one more lucky guy...

I hope they continue the show and I'll watch it and Swamp People and take the good and ignore the best...I just cant stomach Top Shot and Colby anymore and its a good thing Justified comes on at the same time...Now thats a good show, you just never know who's getting it next and I really like Raylan Givens as a modern day old west lawman....We could use more like him in real life...

I have DVR's so I can watch what I want when I want.:001_tt2:
