  1. She told me that she was not interested in an Engagement Ring, she told me , you know I'm not that much into Jewelry. An engagement ring costs allot of money, it is nice and shiny!!!

    But doesn't do anything..!!!!!

    SO I asked How about an Engagement Rifle?

    I told her I would build, it myself, and she asked if she could help.

    She will be my Wife in July!

  2. Was the light "just right" to catch the little twirls of flame from the shotgun chambers? That was cool!

    I've seen this on indoor ranges from behind the gun as the shooter and beside it. I've never seen it outdoors, so I am pretty impressed with that scene.

    And add how the bolt bounces back in battery at the 0:31 second mark... very cool.

  3. Surely someone who lives close by. Leave a note on the car that you want your books and notes back for the exam, a long shot but you never know. Sorry about your loss.

  4. The loss of any shooting show, is just that...a loss

    Good or not so good, in general it was a plus for the shooting world

    i will miss it

    My wife enjoys watching it with me -- and she's not really a shooter. She's also seeing some of those really cool toys agreeing with me when I say "that's really cool ... I want one someday." Hell, even the cute 22-year-old intern at work watches Top Shot and talks with me about it at the office.

    I think Top Shot is relatively good PR for shooting in general, as others on this forum have said before. The shooting is fairly uncomplicated (for the most part), and they almost never move, but they also have had VERY few (but not zero, I'll admit) safety violations, so they're presenting shooting as a safe and fun sport to the general TV-watching public. That's something we could do with more of, instead of our TV action heroes committing multiple unsafe maneuvers in seemingly every frame.

    Long story short, it's not terribly exciting shooting, but it I think it is good for shooters, and it gives my wife and I something to laugh at together, which little enough TV does these days.

    Same here, non shooters in my family watched it with me and sparked the interest in shooting.
