Midway's Gun Stories: The Garand
Anyone catch Midway's Gun Stories last night?
M1 Garand was featured. What did you think? Overall, by far, the best show on the Garand, I've ever seen broadcast. Here are some things I noticed/liked/disagreed with:
I've never watched a gun show that brought tears to my eyes, this one did. Perfect choice for broadcast during the week of July 4. |

I missed the first 15 minutes but enjoyed what I did see. I agree about the slow motion video, just great.

I just wish DirecTV delivered the Outdoor Channel in HD. It's stupid that they don't.
If/when they sell a Bluray boxed set of the shows, I'll be first in line. |

Oddly enough we agonized over that pronunciation! Our experts were pretty much evenly split. Joe, co-producer Tim Cremin and I finally decided to use the same pronunciation as George Patton. Was my call in the end, and I still think I was right.
Was great fun shooting all the guns with Joe! We do a lot of The filming at GUNSITE because 1) we like GUNSITE a lot and 2) the specialty cameras EAT light, and the high desert pretty much guarantees us sunlight all the time. We use 3-4 4-foot square mirrors to pour light onto the subject for the ultra high speed stuff. Next week's Thompson episode is EPIC! I think we're going to put it in for an Emmy just to creep Hollywood out!
