New TV show: Lords of War

[usmarine0352_2005]

This is a cool new show that brings you inside the intriguing world of historical weaponry as Sean Rich and his team of weapons experts travel across the country in search of the best in antique weapons and militaria. Journey through history as the guys assess, test, and auction the bounties of war.


It's not just guns either, they show antique money, crossbows, and other items. It's basically the Antique Road Show of weapons. Sean Rich and some of the other historians are guest historians on Pawn Stars.



I thought some of you might be interested in watching it. I watched it and it was really interesting. They shoot many of the guns also to see if they will fetch more at auction and then they go to auction which is pretty cool. The guys have to give a minimum price of what it will be sold at called a "guarantee" and if it reaches that price they get 15%. It's cool that it goes to auction because then you can see what it is actually worth vs. what someone estimates it's worth at like American Pickers.

Saw this the other night, the auction scenes look really staged.

Saw it, it was entertaining though I assume it is staged. Still I enjoy seeing things about old weapons

Larry has explained that everything is on the up and up.

Since I've known Larry for over a decade and trust his word I'd assume the way things look on TV just look that way.
