Did you catch the Modern Marvels last night on cannons? Pretty informative program.

 

[Matt1911]

I did,I was amazed how big some of the nazi cannons were.The new crusader sure looks like a "fun plinker".

Now if they'd only do a show on HK's..:banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

 

[dinosaur]

Watchin it now.

 

[dustind]

hk... They have featured some, they have done a lot of manufactures and types of guns. I love that channel, someone had a negative comment about the channel, I forgot what it was though.

I just finished watching the Bullets episode and was impressed. The show was informative. I liked the little factoid that a competition pistol shooter shoots over 100,000 rounds a year. Even shooting .22LR thats 294 rounds a day. I wish.

Thanks for Closing my thread PAX!!

 

[cool45auto]

I never knew the early M16's had so many problems.

 

[Mike Irwin]

Chill, Coldshot.

That's SOP.

Why have several threads, all discussing the same thing, running at the same time?

It doesn't make sense from a continuity of discussion point of view, nor from a bandwidth point of view.

You weren't singled out. The original thread on this started over 6 hours BEFORE you posted your message. It's only logical for YOU to post your questions/replies in the original thread.

It's happened to all of us.

that spokesman from metalstorm said their weapon could be chambered for a 45mm round? wow! thats like, a 2 1/2 inch diameter projectile!!! would taht be in the 'lethal' or 'less than lethal' category?

i only caught the bulletproof and bullet segments. and i kept switching to reno 911 so i didnt get the entire last hour.
at least they told the truth about the effects of a bullet impacting the fuselage of an aircraft.

Great shows. Fell asleep half way through "Bullets" though, 11pm .

It's a ways off, but tues. 8pm et/pt:

Million Dollar Guns
The treasures of a select few, each tells a story of human triumph or desperate tragedy, cast forever in iron, steel, and wood. A few are so prized and historic that their values have soared to monumental prices. They are the million-dollar firearms. We view Catherine the Great's pistols and Hitler's gold pocket pistol, among others. TV G
