Get back to me when Red Jacket guns are directly linked to over 300 dead Mexicans, and at least one Border Patrol agent.

Things went swimmingly until 2009 … when the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms conducted a routine inspection of RJF and discovered 10 guns registered to the company could not be accounted for … a big, BIG problem. We’re told the feds pinned the blame on William and Stephanie — and were looking to take serious action that could have resulted in the end of RJF.
But law enforcement sources tell us … the Hayden’s struck a deal with feds in 2010, in which the two agreed to surrender their gun-making licenses … and in exchange, they could appoint a LICENSED person to take over the company. It didn’t take long for William and Stephanie to pick their successor … they went with Vincent Buckles… — another gunsmith often featured on the reality show.

A big problem...unless you're the ATF and lose track of a couple of thousand rifles in Mexico.
I am not surprised, they break plenty of cardinal rules on their show all the time.
I like Vincent but don’t care much for Will.
Kinda funny that Will gives a disclaimer about obeying the law and all that before each show.
We suffer from to much government.
These are the same knuckleheads that drove a truck full of explosives into an airport white zone.
That is damn funny and sad right there!

They haven’t dealt with it on the show. It’d be an interesting episode. Probably part of the deal to not mention it.
They use a lot of cannibalized gun parts, I’m guessing that’s where the paperwork on the guns got screwed up.
ATF is a serious problem.
I had a feeling they would have trouble with the ATF. They were having too much fun with guns on national television.
Amen!
A belt fed machine gun and full auto grenade launcher on a civilian law enforcement vehicle is setting off all sorts of red flags, as far as I'm concerned.

Will Hayden is a retired cop and reserve officer I believe.
Agreed but it was really cool. Imagine a MK19 on a bass boat with HE rounds.

Don’t forget the smoke grenade launcher. I guess they needed that to mark the targets for the close air support..??
One of my pet peeves is that they point guns at each other.
Another is that they like to place tannerite charges inside things like cars.
Shrapnel is how people get hurt.
