I am utterly amazed natural selection has let them live this LONG!!! I have my money on natural selection claiming all of them! Hopefully sooner than later. The amount of damage these dim witted fools are doing to the firearm industry and gunowners is EPIC!! These morons need to GO!

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Alright... I'm not a fan of reality TV, but I will come out in public and say "I did (past tense)" watch this show. When it started I was quietly praying they wouldn't turn out to be like the OCC douche-bag's. Damn it if my prayers were left unheard. I can't watch the train wreck unfold any further. Seems to be a large amount of TMZ coverage to continue over the next few weeks.

At least I've now got my 3Gun Nation to look forward to.

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Last night, they rebuilt a water cooled Maxim. Declaring it a complete success, and the water jacket was leaking like a sieve around the muzzle. Then Will gives a short speech about being part Choctaw, and that where the name Red Jacket came from. Seems like I remember that Red Jacket was the name of a chief before the revolution, that wore the captured jacket of a British officer in battle, but he wasn't a choctaw. This one wasn't as bad as earlier shows---maybe somebody's listening to feedback. I could relate to one of the workers praying for patience, when he thought somebody scratched his new rust bluing job. Been there, done that.

This is why I for one am just not able to let this lie. This guy is a low-life, and this helps to clarify that. Anyone who has ever come across a fine, rare, and highly desirable firearm that at some point was "Bubbified" will feel me when I describe the nausea I felt watching them put handlebars on a 1919. For those who say that shows like this portray our hobby(which is deadly serious after all) in a positive light, I just really don't know where your head is. It seems to me that the attitude these people put forth is that the main purpose of a firearm is to show-off, and that it's cool to do whatever you want if the price is right. No doubt there are 2 sides to every story, and this case has yet to be adjudicated, but you can't escape the pattern developing, this guy will do anything for money. It might be possible to accept the babe in the woods defense, that the DC producers have staged everything and the crew has been unwittingly cast in a freak show against their will, but seriously, how could that apply after season 3? There can be no other conclusion but that Mr. Hayden is a willing participant, it's no longer credible to claim otherwise.

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Oh boy... next week they're making "an all-American gun more reliable than an AK" for "the boys at the nuclear site". LOL!!!

Looks like one of the cloned shop-boys has some difficulty tacking on a bunch of tacticool crap to an off the shelf piston AR. (Pistons are better y'all)

I can't wait for the drama!! Or the next Tannerite explosion!!

On the plus side, the daughter is bouncing up and down in a skirt, with a Derringer shoved in her crotch. And I think she got her teeth fixed.

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

I noticed on the last couple of shows Vince was pretty much saying straight up that his boss was a dickhead. Kinda odd to do that on national tv, if you want to keep your job.

Guess he had enough, he's gone now...when were these current episodes filmed?

"During a routine inspection in 2009, Red Jacket could not account for ten registered guns. In a settlement, William Hayden and Stephanie Hayden surrendered their gun-making licenses and were allowed to choose a licensed individual to control Red Jacket. Initially, that person was Vincent Buckles, but Buckles has left the company and now two others individuals control the company.[3]"

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Watching the last episode with Vince throwing a hissy fit about the 15 job not being “his” leaves me with a bad taste in my mouth. Then watching taking the pipe wrench to the mortar base really got my attention. He was using it backwards on national TV. I thought he was supposed to be a gunsmith. If he can’t properly use the tools I don’t believe I’d want him working on anything of mine.

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Haha. It gets better. Not sure if anybody already posted this but oh well. This is from an interview Will Hayden did with field and stream.

WH: "Let me tell you what I look for when we hire people. We look for a work ethic and a level of integrity and a level of initiative. That’s what we look for. All the rest of it—aw, hell if you’re competent enough to get your ass out of bed, get dressed and get here without dying or killing a bystander you can probably be taught."

Don't worry about actual skills, they can teach you how to dremel. Hehe.

I just watched it on Tivo because I missed that...
It wasn't Vince that initially wrenched on it the wrong way- it was another guy.
After the heat was put to it, Vince wrenched it the "right" way...and broke it loose...

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Just watched the last episode.
I could not blame Vince for leaving. Giving Kris a job that he could not do than Vince working all night to fix the rifle out of parts that Kris supplied and then blaming Vince for the problem.

The big problem for the whole show is Will being a pitiful excuse for a boss.

The whole show is giving the firearm industry a back reputation.

 

[ridurall]

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Vince let that gun ship without doing a trigger job? The fancy gun shop didn't have a disconnector spring at the shop where they were hanging out. Shoot, I'm no gun smith but I've got everything here to make that rifle run and probably 50% of the people on this board could do that and have the materials. What a joke!!! It's a slap in the face of the whole firearms industry. A few years ago I figured out that if I take a 1/4x28 tap through the grip screw area and put an Allen set screw up there to pull the trigger back and reduce the trigger pull. It only cost about $1 for that trigger job. The only thing I can figure out is the screw up with that AR was a scripted set up. No one would have sent that gun out for a contract bid in that sorry of condition. Also the big speech from Will about it ain’t your company with the TV producer was a joke. It’s not his company either. It’s looks like according to this episode Vince walked out before Will and Stephanie were removed from ownership of Red Jacket firearms. I think the whole thing is BS.

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Yeah, Will is a joke of a boss. I love how they send out the AR in one of those cheap plastic cases. you would figure for a possible government contract Will would have overseen the project himself and had the rifle sent out in a quality case. I don't blame Vince one bit.

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

First time I saw a couple episodes I was like "Hmm- could be interesting".
Then over Christmas I had the "blessing" of watching an entire marathon. Good lord..... I could not believe the sheer uselessness and moronity of this show. Also watched a couple episodes of that new one- American Guns or something. Just as dumb.
Also, I could have come up with that shotgun taser attachment from leftover printer and copier parts in the basement!

This whole thing is honestly a real shame. I wish they would come up with a no-bs show about a gunshop doing <span style="font-style: italic">real</span> custom work, and focus on what's going into building the gun, not all this dreamt-up useless crap and drama.

Re: Sons of Guns - New Discovery Show

Well to tell the truth the show is made for people who dont know better in the world. If they put a real gunsmith shop on tv with good employees that knew what they were doing it probley would not get good reviews from the public. Then what would you guys have to talk about. There is a reason RJ is on tv and its not because they do good work its because that is what the ignorance of mass tv viewers wont to see thay wont dram,stupid.explosions,full auto,hurt,pain,trashy white girls who think they are special
