Great Satan, Inc.

It’s that time again – the new season of Top Shot begins on Tuesday the 14th (10/9c), and the History Channel’s Top Shot Season 4 webpage has given out a few clues on what’s in store for the first episode:

Season Four begins with the biggest twist in Top Shot history: two competitors are sent packing immediately after a surprise shoot-off in the opening minutes of the first episode. Later, two shooters get a taste of WWII combat as they fire an M1 Carbine from a motorcycle sidecar and attempt to stay in the game.

This year, I don’t have a favorite going in, but I would like to see Michelle Viscusi do well, and not just because she’s a lady (though I freely admit that is a factor).  She’s practically a neighbor (she lives in the next city over) and competes at my home range, Rio Salado Sportsman’s Club.

Good luck to all of the competitors, and may the best PERSON win!

It’s become a tradition for the cast members of Top Shot to meet up for a casual reunion during SHOT Show, and with three seasons under their belt and one on the way, this year’s event was bigger than ever.  So big, that it was pretty much impossible to get a complete group shot of all but a few of the cast of characters, but as you can see from the photos, everyone involved had a great time.  In addition to just about all of the cast members from season 1 though 3, the contestants from season 4 were also in attendance.  You will be able to watch them get their game on in just over a week, as Top Shot Season 4 premiers February 14th at 10/9 central.

Thanks to Crimson Trace and Top Shot Season 1 winner and Media Relations Manager for Crimson Trace, Iain Harrison,  for hosting this unique event.  I think you’re gonna need a bigger boat next year.
