Nugent sticks to his gun on VH1 set

A pistol-packing Ted Nugent startled a VH1 film crew member.

Gun enthusiast Ted Nugent won a showdown with a VH1 film crew assistant director the other day.

Nugent, in town for the filming of VH1's "Supergroup" reality show, walked onto the set early this week exercising his right to bear arms.

The startled assistant director asked the rocker to remove the holstered firearm from the active set, citing safety concerns.

Nugent, 57, stuck to his guns (gun), and the AD has not been seen on the set since, I'm told.

Reached at VH1 in New York on Friday, spokeswoman Michelle Clark said Nugent "has a license to be a firearm carrier no matter where he might be. I'm sure he wasn't waving it around."

Nugent and four other veteran rockers wrap up their 12-day taping, most of it at the Parisian Palace, with a concert Sunday at the Empire Ballroom, 3765 Las Vegas Blvd. South.

So the guy just go scared of a holstered gun and ran away or did the Motor City Madman brandish? Not real detailed. But glad we have a spokesman.

Ted a Good spokesman so im sure there wasn't any brandishing ..

either ted got the guy removed or the guy refuses to return to the set either way wahh wahh

Good for Ted. He is a responsible gun owner but he's not ashamed of who he is and he doesn't take crap off no one. Me likes uncle Ted, he just tells it like it is.

I don't think that there is a more enthusiastic and passionate supporter of the RKBA than Uncle Ted. Good for him!

I think the AD found out where he is on the food chain....

The statement that he has a license to carry anywhere is also true. I forget which state it is in but he is also a Deputy Sheriff.

The Nudge has a cool web site and he supports a bunch of good activities.

has a license to be a firearm carrier no matter where he might be

Anyone else curious just what kind of license he has that allows him to carry _everywhere_?

 

[Captain Crunch]

Ted's book, God, Guns and Rock & Roll is an excellent read!:king:

HR-218 The bill that allows sworn LEO's to carry almost anywhere in the country.

Right on....

 

[HotGuns]

The Nuge is a sworn Reserve Deputy in Michigan

Here an interesting dialogue from the show "Crossfire" in which he was interviewed and an insight to what he thinks about gun control.

Interesting how they cut him off when he mentioned that the real LEOs did not support the anti gun laws.
