I wish that I could record off my DVR, I would make a library of these things.

Sweet...I've got a DVR...I'll be recording them.

I have them set up as well. I'm suprised that more people aren't interested.

I'll be too busy to edit out the commercials, but I expect that there'll be some DVD's burned that day.

My father, a long time NRA member where i've only been one for 3 years, has been getting VHS tapes every other month from the NRA that are actually Tales of the Gun episodes. Hes got nearly the whole library now and watching them is always fun, but i've seen that the History Channel's web site now offers them on DVD. The price for the collection is so high my mind has erased it for fear of shock. [shock]
Edit note: I had to look and was reminded of the agony of such a price. http://store.aetv.com/html/product/index.jhtml?id=74623
549.95!!!! Do you guys realize the milsurps and ammo I could buy at the next show for that price?!?! That fact alone will keep me from never buying the collection. [lol]
