American Airgunner Television Coming to DISH Network

[shootist]

WOW!!! That's excellent Dave!!! I know Paul has given up a lot of himself and his personal life to be as committed as he is to the air gun project. I'm sure you have just made his year! The rest of us out here are chomping on the bit for these DVD's. I spread the air gun word thru personal contacts, authoring air gun articles, hosting 2 pellet guns shoot per year, repairing and tuning air guns and driving my wife and family crazy. If we all don't do our part by spreading the word with passion, the air gun world will just stumble along at a much slower pace. I myself was in the graphic arts industry for 35 years, so if there is anything I can help you with Dave, please e-mail me or call 413-796-1431. Have a great day - Lee

Paul, I know it's an expensive undertaking to produce a DVD set but MAN, that's high. Especially if it doesn't include the duplication and packaging. I'm a former radio broadcast chief engineer and somewhat of a computer geek. So I know my way around electronics and various audio/video equipment. I've had experience editing and burning DVDs so if there's any possible way I can help you cut the cost and get the DVD set produced, let me know. I'll gladly helpany wayI can. I also have info on a DVD duplicator/printer that's extremely reasonable. I've looked into mass producing a catalog for my work place.

I also have an outlet for media storage cases and can print the inserts. I could at least help put together a demo set.

Thanks for your time and efforts to give us a quality showwhich helps promote our hobby/sport!!!!

Dave thanks so much for your ideas, we really appreciate it. You also have to consider the distribution costs, packaging, shipping, returns, customer service and support,etc. We believe we have the plan in place that makes the most sense. Thanks!

We have a plan in the works to create a website that will have some of our broadcast content, but not entire episodes.

Cool I can't wait to view the streaming video thanks.

Just wanted to bring this back up to the top- I have been recording American Airgunner off Dish Network now, and it is great! I think those of us who are able to enjoy it should write to the carriers to thank them for carrying the show, and encourage them to keep it on.

Paul did a nice mention of the online forums in the recent episode I watched, featuring a very familiar screenshotof GTA!

It was also the only place I am likely to see a DAQ going off in the near future, and the bit on the circa 1800 brace of finely finished air pistols was priceless. I don't know about the rest of you, but there aren't a lot of places I can see like-minded folks talking and shooting air guns, from the every day stuff in my closet to the exotica I only get to read about.

I know it is hard to please the die hards among us, but I think this is giving airgunning a great and responsible exposure to powder shooters and other sportsmen. All the best to you (and Crystal!) and please keep up the excellent work.

I sure with I could get that. It is not offered here. I live in large community of almost 5000 people... Guess it is not economical to open shop in my town..

[mac56]

[CitySniper]

D********it I'm in California and have Comcast...I have most channels, but I don't see a Sportsman channel. im *_*_*_*_*_*ed

I also agree the American Airgunner TV is a wonderful media to expand the airgun community. Paul Cappello has given a lot of himself along with his family to pursue this goal. If we all raise our voices and do our part to educate others, we would all benefit from more media to satisfy our lust for more. Visit your local gun shops, join your local sportsman's clubs and appeal to their board of directors for more airgun sports, or visit the local Boy Scout troops. The time you spend will be rewarded. By the way, board of directors meetings are open to all, members and non-members!! Please respond to this thread with any other ideas you may have to help stimulate the movement. Remember - only a squeaky wheel gets greased!! Have a great day - Lee

Would be nice if I could get it here but I'm sure when I try to stream it it will say 'Sorry, we only do it in the USA! Typical, all the decent programmes seem to be blocked from Spain! :0
