Season Two is definitely better done that Season One was. More shooting, less crud, better guns. I was rather put out by the poor performance of the US and World Handgun Champs. But it seems the less specialized shooters do a better job overall.

As a competitive shooter I find a lot of things about the show very annoying.... when the information is just wrong (Civil War Sharpshooters and then they bring out an 1874 Sharps - two decades later than the Civil War), the host and his grin and lousy script, etc. But as a vehicle to show shooting, the shooting sports, and firearms in general in a positive light to the average person, I think it does well.
