The worst pro-gun video ever made
Edited on Sat Dec-19-09 12:12 AM by Jackson1999
No matter how pro-2A you are, it is tough not to laugh at this, the bad acting, the hair, the Magnum PI mustache...I really thought it was a set up for a porno. I kept expecting to hear the "boom chicka wah wah" baseline at any minute.

1. And here I thought this was going to be a link to a George W. Bush campaign commercial.

2. Acting was pretty bad, but the video was ok. I think it's very
important for anyone who gets a gun know about it and how and how not to use it!

3. Holy Moly that was Cheesey!
Was that Gerald McRaney of Simon&Simon fame? That's worse than agreeing to a reality t.v. pilot! First let's go shooting, then shopping! Yee Haw!! Is that a .357 in your pocket or are you glad to see me?

5. Funny how a vid made for women is....
so condescending. She is hypnotized by the revolver and what does she look forward to besides shooting? Shopping!!!

8. It was made for clueless dolts, apparently...
my wife got side stitches laughing at that scene when the guy is saying "it's a revolver because this revolves" and she looks like she's just received a revelation of some great truth...yeah, we had to suffer through part of it during one of the training classes we've taken...

6. Everything from the 1980s looks like cheap porn.

7. ZOMG!! That was the (very, very, very) badly scripted "intro to firearms" video we had to endure...
...in the first CHL class my wife and I ever took (in Florida, mid-'90s). The LEO trainer who was teaching the class started to show that video, as the curriculum he was using called for, but the howls of laughter from the very gun-savvy women and men class ("this is called a REVOLVER because this part REVOLVES!" :eyes:) suggested that we, er, might be a little more knowledgeable than the producers of the video gave us credit for. When we all had our fill of laughing at it and it started to get old, he shut it down and spoke ex tempore about guns, self-defense law, situational awareness issues, and how easy it is to pull the slide off a first-gen Beretta 92 from the front (we LOL'd again...).

Oh, that vid brought back memories...
