Oh No! They Are Back Again!
A random walk through the cable channels brought me
to what seems to be a new season of Red Jacket.
Laughed when Kris tried to convince an owner of a S&W
Special Production Rifle Silencer that the RJ washer and spacer can was quieter.
After the test he was shamefaced.
No kidding, Captain Midnight.

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
Yeah, I saw the ads between other shows for new RJ episodes. Something about Will building something no one would believe, no stretch there, and something about waiting on some big contract.
The only think that stood out is it looks like Will dropped a bunch of lbs. Is this a new health kick or from a strictly controlled diet and walks around the yard?

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
I suppose it's possible that this show's return has some positive implications, given that it was "cancelled" along with the other gun-related shows on Discovery channel in the massive liberal media over-reaction to the CT shooting (and apparent fear that they might hurt Comrade Obama's agenda by allowing such shows to air). Maybe we are seeing things returning to normal, if you can call it that in the same sentence as Red Jacket.

I concur that a finding a positive in a situation is what sets us apart from
the self-loathing, not self-destroying fast enough for us, party pooping,
liberty stifling liberals. As Peggy Noonan in the 4 May WSJ said the
Empty-Suit-In-Chief may not yet be a lame duck but " ... he is lame".
History will show that George W. Bush was a most competent straight
shooter who retaliated agains the Islamo-Sewers and in comparison relegate the Walking-Disaster to the category
of Frozen Incompetence who nearly destroyed America's capabilities.
Do you know how to make a liberal and their plantation staff lose bowel control?

All Amendments must be protected, that is why our US is the only country having the Second
to back all the others up. No more political defense. Offense ... one loud and clamoring vote at a time.

I saw these d-bags at the NRA show on Friday. I got close enough to laugh as I walked by with friends. People were lined up to take pictures.

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
Why the RJ hate?
I've only ever caught a few episodes and I'm not a machinist, but they seemed to do decent work.
I'm sure there is some drama thrown in for ratings and such - but the fact they have military contracts should lend credence to their skill.
Again, I've not watched many episodes - maybe 3 in total -but I don't understand why everyone bags on them.
Care to explain?

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
Also, just because a company has a military contract doesn't necessarily mean they do good work. Probably just means they know somebody and/or just happened to win the bid...for whatever reason. That reason is not always because they are the best.
Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
Besides the right and wrong way to do things it's been rumored on the interwebs that RJ has experienced more more than one federal legal complication.
While I can't say I have any actual "hate" for RJ I can't say I believe they are exactly the kind of television emissary the gun community needs.

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
While at least some of them might be considered "ass clowns" I like the part of the show where they blow up stuff. That part never gets old. A couple of the guys seem reasonably intelligent.
I could do without the manufactured drama however.

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
What military contract does RJ have? any proof other than they said something on the show? I seriously doubt RJ has any military contracts.

Keychains perhaps? Maybe a "Tactical" Can opener?yamatitan wrote:What military contract does RJ have?
Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
Well there's your problem. You really have to know a bit about the trade to see how bad it really is, we do better work in a garage with less equipment. But my friend (and mentor) is a skilled machinist and we both have a genuine interest for doing quality work.Jer wrote:I said I wasn't a machinist.

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
Imagine a third rate auto mechanic who thinks he can fine tune a precision watch with a wrench. That's William Hayden, the Big Chief Redneck behind Red Jacket Arms. I watched his show with some amusement until one of their employees asked Big Chief Redneck where the measurement tools were so he can properly measure the chamber he was drilling out. Big Chief Redneck gave him a cartridge and told him "Iff'en y'all can't figure out how ta drill yer chamber with the tools we's got then y'all needs ta pack yer bags". Yeah they can make guns with the lathes and the duct tape they have but they're going to be of shitty quality with horrid headspacing problems. Sometimes you can glean hints of the shitty quality of their guns when someone accidentally uses a wrong part or another which causes the guns they're testing to jam...which 75% of the time they find out when they're test firing a piece in front of the customer.Jer wrote:Why the RJ hate?

Now imagine a third rate auto mechanic who thinks thinks he can fine tune a watch with a wrench hosting an MTV "reality" show. That's the entire Sons of Guns television series. One show had one customer coming to them looking to buy a Japanese Papa Nambu. Instead of going to Gunbroker like everyone else in creation, the remainder of the show showed how much stress Big Chief Redneck was going through travelling from shop to shop looking for a Japanese papa Nambu, because Red Jacket Arms apparently doesn't have a telephone where they can just call the shops and ask. He even gave an interview on how impossible it was to find ammunition for it to add the drama...but when they were test firing it for the customer, they showed the box of ammo and it was distictively the white box with red label of Mr. Nambu, the guy who sells 8mm Nambu on Gunbroker by the crate. I have a Japanese Nambu as well so I know from personal experience that everything he did was handled over the internet in a few minutes while sitting at the computer eating potato chips and they embellished it to absurdity for the sake of the camera. In reality, Big Chief Redneck doesn't even have an FFL license- he lost it back in 2010 when the ATF found out he was a slob at records keeping and was missing ten guns from his inventory. He can now only sell guns through an employee who has an FFL and all sales come to a screeching halt when/if that employee leaves.
I have no doubt he can weld and I have no doubt he can fix a sight onto a picatinny rail but to call him an actual gunsmith is like calling Paris Hilton an professional entertainer. I know lots of gunsmiths and I have never, not even once, heard them tell me about the time when an eccentric millionaire showed up and challenged them to a zombie gun build-off contest.
Am I leaving anything out?

Just like the last season when that employee (actual FFL holder) quit.Big Chief Redneck doesn't even have an FFL license- he lost it back in 2010 when the ATF found out he was a slob at records keeping and was missing ten guns from his inventory. He can now only sell guns through an employee who has an FFL and all sales come to a screeching halt when/if that employee leaves.

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
Actually you're leaving a lot out...I think it's hilarious that you "experts" believe everything you see on TV. Will really does know what he's doing when it comes to AK building. He was doing great work long before the TV show, and had a great reputation among those that knew their way around an AK. The things that go on when filming the show are done to entertain, and anybody that watches and thinks otherwise is dumber than a rock. About the only thing you got right is the part I highlighted. Oh, And Will is laughing all the way to the bank....GoodOlDave wrote:Imagine a third rate auto mechanic who thinks he can fine tune a precision watch with a wrench.

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
Then would you mind terribly explaining how I was able to find my own Japanese Nambu AND two boxes of 8mm Nambu for it while sitting in front of the computer eating potato chips while Big Chief Redneck went through so much stress going from gun shop to gun shop looking for one? That's not doing things to entertain. That's outright making things up. Besides, you know as well as I do that all the guy does is take existing frames and accessorizes them. That's literally his entire "Master Key" invention; a cut down Saiga with a Picatinny mount welded on it. You'll excuse me if I don't get excited over a business that caters to mall ninjas.Jer wrote:Why the RJ hate?

Re: Oh No! They Are Back Again!
I disagree. Anyone that allows himself to be portrayed like such an idiot deserves to be called one. If he knows what he's doing and just put on a show for the witless idiots out there he's not just an idiot he's a Grade A moron.dtom29 wrote:The things that go on when filming the show are done to entertain
