Come on now, there's a lot of factual information regarding the various weapons, plus you get to see them in action.

And it was amusing to see the different owners of the weapons reacting to the flow of Ermey's somewhat profane eloquence. The guy with the Gatling gun was completely struck dumb, while the owner of the Maxim gave as good as he got.

Wonder what I could pick up a slightly used antique Gatling for? I always thought they were great from the time I learned of them in books as a kid.

Oh don't get me wrong, I like the Gunny. I watched two episodes last night and will be watching it in the future. But I look at Ermey on "Mail Call" or "Lock and Load" and then I look at his masterpiece of a performance in "Full Metal Jacket" and it's just a little disappointing.
