rmcdave Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Been lurking here for a couple of years. Many thanks for all the information so generously shared here. A day rarely goes by that I don't learn something new. That said... I happened to be channel-surfing tonight and stumbled onto the TV show "Casino" on Discovery Channel. The episode focused on the head chef and his "two greatest passions in life -- cooking and shooting". The segment showed him at the range, qualifying with his G22. Gun safety procedures, although never mentioned per se, were quite evident in all shots. Showed him shooting some IDPA targets on the move and doing some flashlight drills, along with the basic stand-and-shoot at the silouette. Later in the show, he has a conversation with one of his chefs (also a shooter) about the results of his qualification. He gets in a nice plug for responsible gun ownership and how it is everyone's sacred right to be able to defend themselves. It was a refreshing change from the normal anti-gun fare that you see so much of on TV. Check it out if you see a repeat coming up soon. Kudos to Discovery Channel!

JD45 Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 I hope I can catch it when it re-airs. 'Monster Gunsmith' would be a dream come true. I'm not holding my breath though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vince Pinto Posted October 31, 2004 Share Posted October 31, 2004 Dave, I'm confused. I've seen parts of two different series - one is called "Casino", which is filmed at the Golden Nugget, and another series is called "American Casino". Anyway, as I definitely didn't see an episode about a Head Chef who is also a shooting afficionado in either series, can you please confirm the name of the series, and hopefully the episode number? Mucho grassy-ass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rmcdave Posted October 31, 2004 Author Share Posted October 31, 2004 Vince, Here's the info I found on the Discovery Channel website. Looks like no more repeats through the month of November. Maybe they'll run one of their infamous "marathons" over the holidays? American Casino Gun Toting Chef Under pressure to deliver six hundred elaborate meals for the American Gaming Association dinner, Executive Chef, Joe Mulligan, relaxes by shooting his handguns at a local firing range.
