I'm going to watch and see if they feature any exploding cinder block walls or such that media love to show evil assault rifles shooting through. with their 30 round "clips".

[TurboZamboni]

should be a laugh riot.

[Jane Long]

Does this *special* take place in Chicago?

[TurboZamboni]

not sure. IIRC, I think they are following 5 guns? not sure where/who.

I’m sure those guns will be up to no good.

Does anybody actually watch nightline anymore?!? The last time I remember watching it was probably 1995 (no joke).

[driftdiver]

I wonder if the gun will jump up and assault anyone.

The average gun spends 90% of its time locked up in a safe or cabinet.

[Mr Rogers]

If they followed mine, it would be pretty boring. Sit on shelf for 30 days. Used to shoot coke cans. Cleaned. Back on shelf. Maybe for extra excitement, they will go out with some other guns but not get used that day.

So a day in their lives would typically involve sitting motionless in a dark cabinet for 24 hours...should be a ratings killer!

[E. Pluribus Unum]

How about a follow-up with “a day in the life of an unborn American?”

[TurboZamboni]

I do when I I want to see fair & balanced gun coverage./sarc

[Mr Rogers]

I’ll add my guns must like me, because they never leave home on their own. Even if I leave the door unlocked, they NEVER go out and shoot someone...

[Proud2BeRight]

How about following a few of the guns from Fast and Furious?

[TurboZamboni]

after “that’s Bush’s fault” is where the trail went cold.

[pgkdan]

No. No last night, tonight or tomorrow night. Not ever.

The average gun spends 90% of its time locked up in a safe or cabinet.

It's far more than 90% of the time if you have a decent collection. Anytime I reach into my safe and pull out a gun to shoot, all my other guns start pouting. Some of them even cry! It's worse than having multiple wives!

The one that used to shoot Coke cans is racist. Signed 7 Up the unCola.

[MeganC]

I wonder how many Fast & Furious guns they’ll be following into Mexico?

[TurboZamboni]

Mine sit home all day reading the ‘banglist’ and feeling shame and bullied from hoplophobic folks.

Part of the "American Gun" collectible series?

Felicity, Colonial Gun

Addy, Civil War Gun

Kirsten, Frontier Gun

Samantha, Victorian Gun

Molly, Gun on the Home Front

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Most guns spend their days in a drawer or glove compartment or closet or gun safe.

I'm sure they won't be following any of those.

[From The Deer Stand]

Sorry but I don’t watch ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBC, CNN, etc.

[FrankR]

I don’t watch the alphabet channels, haven’t since clinton took office.
