GearHeadFTW 0 Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Military channel Feb 17 Sunday 10:00 PM Weaponology will be talking about the Spetsnaz. Coming attractions showed ak-47's the spetsnaz and a guy pointing a Saiga 12 at the camera! I'm guessing will get a even more in depth look at the Saiga 12 too, not just a guy pointing it at the camera. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Bvamp 604 Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 All I can tell you is this is going to be a BIG YEAR for the S12. I hope they name the gun in the show this time, because its LONG overdo...... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I like when he gets all serious and talks in a quiet but not quiet sounding voice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bean.223 365 Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 Nice, as a brand new Saiga fan I cant wait!!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gaddis 1,689 Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I wanna see the Spetznaz dude throw the shovel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SuAside 2 Posted February 16, 2008 Report Share Posted February 16, 2008 do note that "Spetsnaz" doesn't mean anything. it just means special forces. it'd be more useful if they said what branch or what unit tbh... but Spetsnaz is such a "hip" spin word. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinsen 86 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 It was like any show on Military, could have been a 600 page book, ended up being a colorful pop-up book. It was American guys talking about rumors they read on the internet for 30 minutes, and some nice actual fact thrown in by a Russian guy and old footage of spetsnaz training to fill in the rest of the time. It's worth a watch, but don't expect it to blow your mind or anything. They showed some guy shooting slugs out of a Saiga-12 with a TAPCO galil handguard at like 20 feet. The throwing shovels were funny, I could see one actually giving somebody a decent sized cut on bare skin, unlike throwing knives. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HateTheSnow 29 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Dammit! FIOS recorded the wrong episode. Not that it wasn't a bad episode, but it wasn't this one. Trying it again...repeates aren't such a bad thing Quote Link to post Share on other sites
22_Shooter 1,560 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 I thought it was pretty good. I liked the "use the AK and sling as a restraint device, and use the bad guy as cover" technique . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Cryptkeeper 0 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 i seen that and i thought O sh!t i need to hurry up and get a saiga-12 before the mad rush starts and they sky rocket the price Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Twinsen 86 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Yeah, I tried to get my dad's attention to point out the magwell. It was gone too quickly though. It was such a minor note in the show, I thought it was funny. I figured that they use the best combat shotgun EVER would be a bit more of an important issue than it was presented as. But then again, at least they showed the shovels! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Superhawk138 202 Posted February 18, 2008 Report Share Posted February 18, 2008 Thats a new torture test for mags. Lets see if the surefires hold up like that bakelite mag using your rifle for pushups Quote Link to post Share on other sites
