I’ve been having fun watching the almost real life Sons of Guns [6] television series available via Netflix streaming. I say “almost” because a few of the situations seem a bit contrived and/or too coincidental to be mere happenstance. The show is about a father and daughter that operate Red Jacket [7], a Class 3 manufacturer in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. They have an eccentric crew of enthusiastic gunsmiths with very positive attitudes. (And, refreshingly, much cleaner vocabularies than the wrench-turners in all those “Monster Garage” type shows.) Other than the fact that the producers glossed over the $200 transfer tax requirement for full auto, SBR [8]s and SBS [9] transfers in the U.S., the show is quite good, overall. Many of their modification work involve suppressors, Saiga 12 shotguns, and other guns in the AK [10] family.
