Am I the only one who has been watching? I liked Season one... And know a lot of us wanted to see some Airguns included in the show...maybe it'll happen
so far they've used paintball guns,pistols,rifles
just waiting to see a Marauder ;D
-
Yea been watching,its better than network reality shows. It would seem like it would good advertising if they did shoot some Crosmans ;)
-
I record it and just watch the shooting competitions. I can't stand to watch all the other &^^&. Having one team shoot paintball guns at the other during the competition was cool.
-
I have yet to see any episodes, But my buddy says its a great show.
-
I watch it, but they need to lose the drama behind the scenes junk, that just cheapens the show to the level of something they would show on one of the networks. They do some pretty neat stuff, but it seems to me that many of the people that make it on that show aren't of the caliber to be called "top shot." I have yet to see anyone that could shoot anywhere close to some of the great shots such as Tom Knapp. But I guess they don't really care about that, it's all about who has the best story and is cocky enough for everyone to hate or pretty enough to generate some ratings.

Yeah I loved season 1. The paintball thing was pretty sick and watching a little chick shoot a full auto Tommy gun the same size as her was pretty funny.
-
I saw several episodes and really enjoyed them. My daughter even called me to tell me about them and if I'd seen them, it made me happy my 5 yr old grandson really enjoys them too(he's a good little BB rifle shooter). I hope it sticks around, it could be a good boost for shooting sports.

i caught a marathon of season one awhile ago, and liked the shooting part of the show. there was a little to much talking at some points but over all liked it. and would watch more of it on season two
-
Yep, hooked on the shooting soap opera. :)
Glued to the set last season and this season too. I know, I know....reality TV. But I LOVE shooting. And I love any shooting shows. I almost sent in my audition video...and may next time around.
Happy Shooting!!!!

Yeah I hear you on all the extra stuff, almost like Realworld on MTV. (That is my Generation) ..But overall I like how the show is put together. There is a bit of Tech involved, and pretty cool historical facts
for those who do not know...It comes on Tuesday's @ 10pm on the History channel
there have only been 2 episodes so far this season
and you can google search and watch them online free ;)
-
I enjoy the show too.
Would like to see competitions with more shooting. Meaning instead of just a few shots make it a string of skills.
Kinda like practical shooting competitions where many different types are shot.
I do like the team approach.
-
I have enjoyed the show, really like the high speed
filming of them shooting and the targets getting hit.
The pool balls in the first episode was cool.
The series is available on HULU for those like
me that does not have access to cable.
(where I live, I am luck to have a dsl and electricity
that works most of the time.)
Here is a link to the HULU programs;

I enjoy the show ALOT, but there could be alittle less of the behind the scene's stuff. Should also at least let the shooter's find were the weapon's POI is before they compete with it, but who know's maybe they do an just edit it out? Another good group of show's come's on the OutDoor Channel on Wensday's, best is the Impossible Shot one, I really enjoy watching those guy's. Saw the Cisco Kid draw an hit a target at 50yd's in .32 of a second.
-
The show is O.K. They spend too time on (IMO) inter-personal relationships. I don't need the drama between contestants. Just shoot darn it.
As I said, it's O.K.

While shooting shows can be great, - I'll pass on that one. imo, that's has WAY too much drama.
-
Dez, maybe we should put together "TEAM GTA", and sell them on an all out AG series!

YEAH buddy!!!!
;D

I DVR the episodes and mostly just skip to the actual shooting segments. I have no use for any of the reality show drama nonsense. I think there would be enough drama involved in the shows actually being 80% competition. I also think they spend way too much time with the trick photography. Just show me the people actually competing. The host is also annoying. Having said all of that I do watch every episode, just not when it first airs.
One thing that is kind of interesting for me on a personal note is that I took a 5 day tactical rifle class that was taught by Bill Carns (competitor in Season One) and I am a member of the range owned by Chris Tilley's folks.
