forgot


Ron Hunt
 

One of the things I meant to say and forgot was IN THE SHOW he DOES STATE how the guns firing are blanks except for the small arms and he usually introduces the guy (they call him the armorer) that is responsible?for doing the actual blasting. Also when they do make a weapon (tank/ canon) able to shoot again even though they are blanks they have to have special permission and another "armorer" responsible for those weapons.

Obviously the short clips on UTube leave a LOT to be desired when explaining what he is doing.

The show IS A CLASS act, NOT like the usual BS on TV.

? ?I'm actually surprised that in UNjolly Old England that he can get a permit to FIRE BLANKS at all! Those up-tight Bureau-Weenies over there probably have fits if someone farts too loud! (So, much for all of that Beans-On-Toast!!! Hey, what?? LOL)?
?
? ?I know that he has mentioned several times about the blanks they use when setting up those field pieces for sale to the reenactors and all of the hassles he has getting the permits. Even just the permits to have a piece that CAN fire blanks sounds like a nightmare. And expensive! And I have absolutely NO PROBLEM with enjoying watching someone getting to Play Pretend. = I REALLY liked watching that PAC (and even the Sherman!) go BANG! (I just felt sorry for whoever was going to have the job of scrubbing all of that residue back out of that BIG BARREL!!!)??
?
? ?However, in that episode about the Sherman he made a BIG TA-DO about firing LIVE ROUNDS. --- Even though right-off I figured it was BULLSHITE. = A quick look DOWN RANGE (Which I just out of pure habit ALWAYS CHECK.) and you could tell that unless he was willing to be paying some farmer good money to be reploughing his pastures, . . . something just wasn't right.?
? ?I "thought" that JUST MAYBE he was at some military base using their gunnery range. . . . . right up to until they actually started firing. Then it just all became overly obvious that he was FULL OF SHITE! = Utterly Disappointed!!!?
?
? ?WHY such a CHEAP BS FAKE??? = Just "Looking for Clicks"??? === I REALLY don't like it when somebody thinks that THEY are Oh-So Clever, and that I'm THAT STUPID. The Bloody TV, and even WORSE, the Bloody BoobTube has way too much of that stuff going already as it is! (Not to mention ANYTHING Political!!!) BECAUSE, if he'd FAKE something THAT OBVIOUS (And just Bloody Stupid!!!) . . . . WHAT ELSE is he Faking??? === IMO, (And obviously the opinion of A LOT of the Commentors) he shot his reputation and credibility right out of that barrel with that very first round. (I won't even get into the one with them "Testing" the effects of landmines and other things that go BANG on junker Rump Buggies!? LOL)?
?
? ?Now will I, or would I, watch any further episodes that I can find stashed away somewhere???
?
? ?Well, I certainly DID!!! And CERTAINLY WOULD!!!!!! === Like I said, I LOVED seeing all of that old stuff packed into those barns!!! (But that guy who had a round blow up in his face while in his basement cleaning it up, sure got me to wondering about the "Expertise" of some of those Packrats! YIPES!) AND watching the twins bring them back to life just looks like WAY TOO MUCH DARN FUN!!!! (It's a "Sickness", I know!!!) . . . . I'll just go forward with about just a pinch less salt than when watching any of those Cryptid Big Foot or Political "news" videos. === It IS, what it IS. And that's all that it IS. <shrug> So it goes! <sigh>??
