That was a good show.

I'm trying to search for it on my DVR to see if it's coming on again. Anyone know the actual name of the show?

[Garufa]

The show is "High Impact: M-16". There are alot of Tennessee connections in it. One of the 'Nam vets interviewed is from Knoxville, one of TGO's own private range is used, etc, etc.

Here is the show broken down into 5 parts....

Garufa, thanks for the link.. after watching about 2 minutes of it.. I was so pissed off from the hyped up abilities of AP ammo from a AK.. I mean.. come on.. "designed to penetrate a tank so it will go through these cars like a hot knife through butter" !!!! Please.. They make these rifles and ammo sound like they are "Superman"!!!!

Another part that they left out was that the police in LA got the AR15's from a sporting goods store near by.

Yeah, they are all reruns but good everytime. Some of the Hype is a little much. Like when they tout the 5.56's "power" but it is TV drama.

Thanks. Unfortunately, a search of the DVR revealed no upcoming airings. But with the link, I'll be able to survive!
