This made me miss the way TV was in the 90s. All the arcade music and announcers sounding like were ready 2 rumble.

I’ve been shooting Federal ammo for close to 50 years, and I’ve never had a single issue. Quality, consistency, and a fair price.

I would like to thank all the wonderful people at Federal for making such a high quality product. I have fired thousands of your rounds and have never been disappointed. Take care and God Bless.

Remember when we had an America where you could buy .22 at the gas stations right next to the chewing gum. I’d ask grandpa could we buy a box and shoot later today? Sure after we finish working the tobacco patch. Been so long ago it almost seems not real anymore. RIP America and papaw😢😭☹️

One of my favorite shows growing up. I would wake up every Saturday morning at 5am to watch all the good outdoor shows on ESPN. Brings me back.

Federal Ammunition is 5 minutes from my house. I know a few people who work there, including my nephew. They get some major discounts on ammo. I've got a picture from the Obama ammo shortage somewhere of me standing in front of the gates with a cardboard sign that said, "Will work for 22LR". The guard came out and had a little chat with me. They take their jobs pretty seriously.

I just googled American Shooter and it’s available to watch on Amazon Prime. I sense binge watching in my future.

Back in 2004 One of my customers made automatic reloading equipment. The motors from scratch, CNC mills and lathes cutting the steel, hardening furnaces. Impressive little shop in Arizona outside of Phoenix.

I’m not a shooter or any kind of a gun guy but I found that manufacturing process to be absolutely fascinating.

I have been shooting Federal ammo since about 1960, always good stuff.

Absolute perfect diction. Jim is a great example of how we should speak. A true professional.

This show and my grandfather are the reason I love firearms and everything that goes with it.

I was once invited to go pheasant hunting with Remington employees by partners in my former law firm. When I pulled out a box of Federal 20 guage shells, I got a curious glance. All I said was, "Grew up in Anoka." The Remington guys smiled and nodded with respect. They were cool. My partners were confused. :-)

This is something I’d see on tv randomly but get interested so I keep watching it
