Q:

Top Shot – Barrett 82A1 .50

This is a cool series and now they’re playing with a high power weapon system.

Has anyone watched the 1st and the latest 2nd series?

No facebook for bennee!!! Damn sexy and smart! I can dig!

She did look young, dumb and full of …… =)

Ahhhhh Yes, little Zoe D’amato
at least she had a Degree in Athropology but is none the less an Actress

doubt she pissed herself
just more staged drama for the show

she is one tasty young Canuck tart 😉

Chasing mummies was funny when one of the girls pissed herself in the tomb LOL!!!!!

Skydiver et al…

I have got in the practice of Googling anyone that appears as an “Expert” whatever on The History Channel, much less Discovery…
the firearms Expert on Pawn Stars is a total armchair “expert” at best
I have lost count of that assclowns errors
also note how the show constantly promotes this notion that firearms taken in by the shop need to be registered with the Feds unless they are pre 1898
1st the act of entering a firearm into the bound book is NOT Registration
2nd, it’s pre January 1st 1899
anyways the show is 98% fantasy
as I have noted before some of their experts are not even located in Nevada…try New England

The Pickers is even worse
does anyone believe you can travel the USA in a Mercedes van buying a few items of junk and even break even on gas & motel rooms?
thought so…
Don’t get me wrong, “Picking” is a worthwhile vocation but sure as heck not at the chickenshit margins & volume the Nosepickers operate at
it’s 98% fantasy

and so it is with Top Shot
these people are either extremely specialized in just one shooting game or are just simply Marginal shots, that’s if they are actually shooters and not simply actors as that is what History & Discovery people these shows with…Actors

Doubt me on that?
EVERYONE of the “interns” on Zahi Hiwass’ “Chasing Mummies” serial were paid actors, not a one of them had any credentials to be where they were nor had one even attended the schools or programs claimed…it was pure scripted fantasy & much the same is true of Top Shot

what bothers me is that while quite a few get it, most viewers don’t and assume that Reality TV is actual reality
whether it’s a kindly Vegas pawnbroker giving his customers the best bang for their treasures or the fairy tale of a couple fairies in a Van making a living on 20% margins before expenses

btw guys…1000 yard shots with a properly set up .50BMG rifle are something most of us on TAG can do
if you can shoot a damn Condor effectivly at over a 100, a Barret at a 1000 is not a great deal different…been there, done that, owned 5 different .50s from the 80s through the 90s

State Arms
Maddi Griffin
Barret M82A1
Soviet PTRS conversion
and my favorite…a one of a kind Griffen & Howe sporter conversion of a 1918 Mauser T Gewher
this doesn’t count the .50BMG AR top ends I tested

to impress me Mr. Super Sniper needs to run a .308, heck even a .300 Winchester Magnum at a 1000
then we will see if he has any true “sniper” training, muchless having even been in the military
at this point I am very jaded about assclowns on the boob tube

To much man drama for my taste. Most of the shooting is not that difficult, but the guys still manage to miss more often than most of us would.

As a firearms instructor, I can honestly say that many if not most of these shooters have never been properly trained. It’s obvious by the way they handle and shoot the various firearms. Why they are on a tv show is beyond me. 😕

i agree with you 100%

I DVR it and watch the shooting and fast forward threw the hissy fits.

My wife likes the hissy stuff, I watch the shooting stuff, we both wind up happy.

My dads friend is a former navy seal and I never seen him show off. He tells me stories about when he was in the military and alot of guys ran their mouth talking shit. As a navy seal he never disrespected another branch or soldier. He said even though he was a seal that did not give him the right to disrespect another man. The real bad ass guys keep quiet and let their actions show who is the real bad ass. Just because he is a sniper does not give him any right to bash other guys

But he is a sniper, and by that fact alone gives him the right/privledge to be cocky. He’s already proved that he is the best, under the worst circumstances.

And he did smoke that 1000 yard Barret shot with 1 bullet.

IMHO

I DVR it and watch the shooting and fast forward threw the hissy fits.

I want it to be good but it’s always gay. All those dude and their gossip girl talk about the little asian dude who is kicking there ass. Funny as shit. I hope he wins. Sorry Wanda but it’s gay LOL!

very true LOL that little asian dude has come back from two eliminations. what i dont get is why some of the guys on the show are top world shooters yet they can hit shit. and whats up with the teams ❓ i dont get the point of it being called top shot if your in a team. what made me dislike the show the most was the elimination process. its not about being the best its about whether your team mates like you and dont vote your ass off. i dislike that fucking airforce guy that is a sniper and talks shit about the asian and the other navy guy. that guy has no fucking respect for other people… peace
