Does this mean my order for a mag-fed, full-auto Taurus Supreme Court Justice .410 will be delayed?
They're working on the gyro for the tripod and the paperwork for the integral suppressor has been delayed, so sit tight.
In
American Guns they actually
do have some skill - it's not trivial to mill a complicated frame out of a block of metal, even with a CNC mill. Though I'm pretty sure that having the head guy come in and give "guidance" to his people when there's a problem is mostly made-for-TV drama, along with the daughter carrying her little dog around all the time. Still, the guy does talk about safety . . . even if it's only for the camera. (The episodes with the ersatz "hand cannon" and the silver plated, diamond inlaid gun for his wife were just . . . silly.) And the prices he constantly harps on are unrealistic, from custom 1911s to a rusty old Garand - it's almost like he's posturing for the camera to say "Hey, look at me, I have a chopper and expensive stuff so I'm a real high roller."
On the other hand, SOG spends WAY too much time grinding on their guns to make parts fit, their attempt at CNC design for a Gatling shotgun was an abysmal failure (A KABOOM! that puts Glock KABOOMs to shame). And even though they test fired it, honestly, I don't want to be within 100 yards of the formerly demilled 20mm cannon they welded back together when it's fired.
Never watched the show, but I own a Red Jacket Saiga conversion from before they went Hollywood. Does that make me cool?
Well, "cool" is another way of saying "not so hot" . . .
