SSD readers might be interested in a new half hour special from from G4TV. ‘Field Test‘ with Weston Scott will take a look at a variety of equipment and weapons. Scott is ‘Attack of the Show’s’ military corespondent and has covered SHOT Show for G4tv over the past few years.
He spent some time with our friends at Blackheart International and his previous visits to West Virginia have been pretty good.
This half hour special is airing Wednesday, April 11th, at 8PM ET on G4tv.
Fans of the G4TV show “Bomb Patrol Afghanistan” may find a new article on PopSci interesting. It covers the tools and equipment used by our EOD forces.
G4TV, the video game network is sponsoring Operation Instant Jolt. The idea is to send some decent coffee to our troops deployed overseas, and apparently the concept was inspired by the video Combat Coffee 101 featured here on SSD a few weeks ago. Ahhh, the power of the internet. They are asking for the public to send instant coffee to:
Operation Instant Jolt c/o G4TV
5850 W. 3rd St. #155
Los Angeles, CA 90036
They are accepting instant coffee until May 1st, 2011 so get those packages in ASAP!

G4TV’s latest show, “That’s Tough” features countdowns of the top categories of “tough” people, places or things in the world. The half hour format covers 3 “tough” categories and counts down the top 3 of each using archival photos and footage, reenactments and limited interviews of subject matter experts. The format reminds of History Channel’s Gangland. G4TV only ordered 8 episodes making it a very short first season. Unfortunately, the commercials featuring Dude Manrod are more entertaining than the actual show. Look for it every Wednesday at 8:30PM, or don’t.
