If the desert eagle is difficult to control you need to work on your stance.
I’ve seen some damn tiny women shoot some monster handguns and rifles with no ill effects (besides maybe attaining recoil whoredom for those who fall in love with it…I include myself)
Looks like the whole shooting scene was mocked up. She was attempting to shoot the gun with the safety on.
Really don’t have anything against “Sons of Guns”, but the folks down at Red Jacket tend to work on “Neat Toys that you can’t afford.” But I guess showing them mounting a Scope on a Marlin Lever Gun doesn’t make for “Exciting TeeWee.”
Chris, if that’s the case, the camera work was mighty careless – for a “gunny” show especially. They COULD have shot that so you never saw any of the gun.
I’ve run into this attitude from H’wood types – when you point out a flaw in their film/video, they tell you that “99.9% will never notice, it’s only you anal-retentive types that spot those screwups”. Maybe they’ll try harder next time after the thumping they just got.
I watched that episode. Not close enough to notice the switch, but I don’t make a habit of playing “gotcha” with the TV.
Worst episode ever.
It was the last episode I watched. They created a thousand dollar sloution to a 10 dollar problem. Gun too big and powerful for owner-make it a shoulder fired weapon? Give me a friggin break.
They would have earnmed my respect had they had sat her down with her moron husband and explained the virtue of choosing a more apropriate firearm for her to train with and carry.
That Desert Eagle will go right back in the box when she gets home and she will never use it again. And she will never get to spend the money she wasted on it on something she would use.
First I want to apologize for the spelling in the last post. Mea culpa.
Second I want to express more clearly that I think the folk at Red Jacket took advantage of that woman. I won’t watch again nor will I bless them with any of my hard earned. No matter how cool some of their gear may be.
The shifty camera and or scene set-up was the least problem in that episode.
I find that show harder and harder to watch. I am sure they are decent people, but having to watch them manufacture “drama” each week is already very tired.
The chromed 1919 for The American Chopper boys was dumb as shit.
My problem with the show, is not the cost of ‘their solutions’ to problems that only they seem to have, but that they claim, every damn time, to be the first to do something, yet more often then not, they are not and they massively over-charge for what they do.
and most of what they do, or at least show on the show, normal people off the street can not own.

And turning it into a … SBR? AOW? at the same time.

I watched one episode of that. It was two episodes too many.

“I really like the gun, but it’s just so big….and awkward….and powerful…”
Um, run that one by me one more time?
October 13th, 2011 at 11:42 am
LOL at the gun switching to a Beretta 92 in mid-string.
Reality tv is not reality.

I cant believe being a gun show that they would do a switcharoo and think that they would get away with it.
October 13th, 2011 at 12:18 pm
Steve, the word on the forums is that after the owner left, they were asked to re-shoot a scene by the producers and that is why she was using the 92.

Why not just buy the .44 Mag model of the Desert Eagle and run regular .44’s through it? Probably have next to no recoil. Am I missing something?
October 13th, 2011 at 4:51 pm
Wait… There was a GUN in that video?

Someone has taken down the vid, copyright vio. Probably from the attention brought by an Uncle.

I watched a couple of times – I always thought the prices they tell the TV crew have to be 3 times what their customers actually paid.
