On tonight's season finally on "Top Shot".
16 of today's best marksmen were chosen.
After a series of challenges inspired by history,
only four remain.
It's anybody's game right now.
Tonight, they will go head-to-head.
Let's get it on.
Brian Zins, the 10-time NRA pistol champion.
Brian, 3 for 3.
He has shown that he's just as talented with a rifle.
I can adapt to any weapon system.
I want to win for the bragging rights.
Chris Reed.
The self-taught country boy
has outperformed the other shooters again and again.
I came a long way in this competition.
It's time for me to earn my keep.
Joe Serafini... The construction worker,
trained Archer, and former marine.
He has been one of the most consistent shooters
of the competition.
I get in this mental game that I have.
You know, I just completely block everything out
before I shoot.
Joe goes 3 for 3 for the Red Team.
And George Reinas.
Whoo!
The straight-talking air force sniper
has backed up his bold words with amazing displays of skill.
George's first shot downrange
is a direct hit!
I'm here to destroy.
Each shows the timeless skills
of a true marksman...
Not just with one weapon, with any weapon.
Now get ready as the final four face off
in a series of challenges
in the ultimate test of marksmanship.
Tonight, only one will earn the $100,000 prize
and the title of Top Shot!

Whoo! Final four, baby!
Definitely very happy with the final four.
I think it's the best of the best in the house now.
We just lasted the whole time. We shot good.
You know, we stuck together, and we came through.
Look at him.
The way the final four ended up
is exactly the way I picked them, you know.
Well, it was exactly in the same order.
The final four feels great.
I'm not surprised I'm here,
but I'm humble, and I'm thankful I'm here.
Three more to go if I want to win it.
Congrats, bro. Good shooting, man.
Yeah. Great shooting, brother.
From the start, as soon as Chris Reed picked this team,
we saw the four shooters that were there,
and we just kind of knew,
"hey, this is gonna be a foursome to reckon with."
Dude!
Oh, look at that! No way!
Going up against these other three competitors
was just great.
There's no slouches in this group.
If I had known it was gonna be this good, I'd have shot a lot better.
I'm expecting these next couple competitions
to be pretty off the wall and intense,
no matter who walks out of here winning,
no matter what happens...
Cheers. To good shooting.
The four of us are gonna have a good time doing it.
Welcome to the season 2 finale of "Top Shot."
You guys are gonna have to prove superior marksmanship
in three more consecutive head-to-head competitions.
These challenges are gonna incorporate weapons
from throughout the competition.
One of you will be eliminated in the first challenge,
then another in the second,
and the last two guys remaining are gonna face off
in one heck of a final challenge.
The winner of that will be declared Top Shot
and take home 100k.
So far in the competition, you guys have tackled challenges
that have called for a variety of skills,
ranging from speed to accuracy to strategy.
Well, in this challenge,
we're gonna require you bring all three of those to the table.
Battling head-to-head, you will each use
the Browning hi-power to shoot at colored targets
while also attempting to block your opponent
from being able to shoot theirs.
30 feet out on the range
are 2 sets of 20 targets side by side.
Your goal is simple...
Hit as many targets on your side as you can in 30 seconds.
But there is a twist.
In front of the tower are four disks...
That flip back and forth.
When you hit your colored disk,
a panel slides back to block your opponent's targets
and open your own.
Two shooters will compete at the same time.
You're gonna go head-to-head.
You're gonna have 30 seconds per round.
The shooter who hits more of his targets will be set, okay?
The losers of the first two rounds will go head-to-head
in one final round of competition.
You lose that, you will be going home.
All right, I'm gonna draw out of the ammo box
to determine who will compete first.
Let's get to it.
The first shooter in the first match up will be...
Brian.
You're gonna be going against...
George.
Brian and George going head-to-head
in the first round.
Being down to the final four is definitely put up or shut up.
I am staying calm and collected, though.
I've been in the situation before,
going into a last gun at nationals,
where I know what I got to do to win.
Gunny has the most pressure on him.
He is a pistol shooter, so I knew he was coming with the fire.
But at the same time, out of all the guys
I want to shoot a pistol against, it's gunny.
'Cause if I beat him, bragging rights out the ass.
All right.
This is the first round of the final-four showdown.
Brian Zins, you're shooting targets
on the yellow side of the course.
George, you'll be nailing them
on the orange side of the course.
Marksmen, ready...Set...
Go!
Both men shooting the disk,
trying to close the door on their opponent.
Brian on the yellow side, taking an early lead.
George closing the door!
Now Brian shuts the door on George!
George is reloading. Brian Zins hitting a few targets.
George finally on the board, catching up.
Cease fire! Cease fire!
Brian, you hit five targets. Nice work.
George, you hit four.
Congratulations, Brian.
You are moving on in the competition. You guys, come back down here.
George, you still got a shot. You will be in that final round.
You can step over here, George. You're in the hot seat.
This was my chance to prevent Brian Zins from going on,
or at least forcing him into a losers' bracket to go home.
You know, I had that power, and I totally just failed.
So that put him in immunity status. He was safe.
And at that point,
I knew that it was either Chris, Joe, or myself going home.
It was a bad feeling.
Joe, Chris, head on up to the firing deck.
It is your turn to go head-to-head.
Good luck. Yeah, you too, man.
This is the playoffs, so to speak,
and I'm gonna be shooting off against Joe,
who is, you know, just coming off a win against Ashley
with the same weapon... A Browning hi-power...
And he went 10 for 10 in 40 seconds.
You know, I came here with the same intention
as everybody else did, you know,
and that's to win this whole damn thing, you know,
so I definitely think I have what it takes
to take this all the way to the end.
Here we are.
Joe, you're gonna be shooting targets
on the yellow side of the course.
Chris Reed, you're taking out targets on the orange side.
Marksmen, ready...Set...
Go!
Chris already up and running, shutting the door on Joe.
Now Joe's hitting some targets on the top.
Chris Reed hitting the targets.
Both men very effective with the Browning hi-power.
Now they're both reloading. The 30-second clock is ticking.
Chris back on the range.
Joe hitting some targets.
Chris coming back, hitting some targets.
Cease fire! Cease fire!
Good shooting, buddy.
Joe, you hit four targets.
Chris Reed, you doubled that. Congratulations. You hit eight.
You know, today was actually the first challenge
that I actually got nervous, you know.
My hands were actually shaking up there.
When I was doing the magazine change,
my hands were shaking so damn bad.
I was having a tough time with that.
Nice shooting, killer. Appreciate it.
I was proud of my performance, but at the same time,
I was sad to send Joe, you know, to the losers' bracket.
Joe, hang out up there, buddy. I'm gonna send George up.
You two guys are now gonna face off.
There is one spot left, and you guys are gunning for it.
I mean, it sucks.
Joe is definitely my best friend the house,
and now it's gonna be either Joe or myself going home.
Coming up on "Top Shot"...
Go!
George already closing the door on Joe!
Now Joe's returning the favor!
So here it is, fellas.
When the dust settles
after 30 seconds of you boys slinging lead,
one of you will be joining Chris and Brian
and moving on in this competition.
The other one will be history. Let's do it.
Joe, you're gonna be firing on the yellow side of the course.
Big George, you're taking on the orange targets.
Good luck to both of you.
I'm definitely not ready to go home yet, you know.
I mean, I set my goal to win this thing,
and that's still my goal, and I'm gonna try to do it.
Dude, first time on the chopping block for me today.
You know, put up or shut up.
Marksmen, ready...
Set...Go!
The final round in this competition.
George already closing the door on Joe!
Now Joe's returning the favor!
George shuts him down.
Once again, George dominating this competition.
Joe hits a couple of targets.
Joe's catching up.
Joe once again is denied.
Cease fire! Cease fire!
Joe, you took out seven targets.
George, you smoked it... 12 targets.
Congratulations. Come on back down here.
You will live to see another day in this competition.
I noticed from Joe's first run,
he had a really hard time being quick in shooting targets.
George already closing the door on Joe!
When I was shooting the targets, you'd be zoned in.
Then all of a sudden, a big piece of wood would come and block your target,
you know, and so it would just kind of throw you off.
Every shooter knows that they have good days and bad days.
George dominating this competition!
Ah, dude. Good shooting, brother.
I'm leaving my best friend.
There's so many emotions.
The funniest thing is this is a competition.
So, in hindsight, that's one less dude
I just cut... you know, cut down out of this,
and my chances are better.
But Joe for me was my best friend in the house...
An all-around good dude, just a good person,
I mean, a good friend.
Well, Joe, I know these guys are gonna hate to see you go,
but you have officially fired your last shot.
Unfortunately, you have been eliminated from "Top Shot."
Come on down here. Say your goodbyes.
Well, it doesn't feel good to be knocked out.
But, at the same time, it feels good to be knocked out
by such good competitors and such good friends.
Hey, man, it was awesome shooting with you guys, dude.
It is pretty sad to see Joe go, man.
We're gonna miss him. He's just a likable personality.
And, you know, the house is gonna be empty.
Gunny.
Walking through the door,
my goal wasn't to win the $100,000.
My goal was just not to be the first one out.
And I can honestly say that I've reached my goals and then some.
I walk away with a smile on my face.
Well, gentlemen, there are only two challenges
standing between you and winning this whole thing.
And if you think this was intense,
just wait to see what is coming.
You can head back to the house and try to relax,
but you better keep your head in the game,
'cause, boys, we are about to turn it on.
Good shooting, guys. Nice work.
Good job, Brian. Thanks.
We're down to three guys, and there's still two opponents
that, you know, have every capability
of winning this thing as much as I do.
I knew gunny had me, dude. I was almost like defeated.
What happened on mine and his? 'Cause I didn't see it.
You shellacked him, dude.
I'm looking forward to going to the next elimination challenge.
We've only got three competitors left.
Somebody's gonna go home after it,
and I'm just hoping it's not me.
And I expected I was going home today, anyway.
I mean, I... and no dis...
Shut up. Shut up.
Stop trying to be all dramatic and
The final two... I'd like to shoot off against Chris Reed.
Him being a little more physical than gunny,
it's gonna be a better challenge.
I also think that Chris is an awesome guy.
I feel an honor to be able to compete with him
and hang out and be friends with him.
Crazy life story.
I mean, the guy's been through so much more harder stuff
than I think anyone I ever met in my life.
It's been a real long road to get to where I am now.
A few years ago, I was involved in an accident
and required brain surgery.
I get the news that I could possibly go blind,
I could possibly have a stroke,
could possibly not make it through the operation.
Kind of puts everything in perspective, you know.
I had a wife and a new family, successful business,
but I basically had to start over from scratch.
You know, they say money isn't everything,
but if I won the $100,000, my family could use it.
I'm thankful every day just to have my health.
And for me to be able to come here and compete
with some of the world's best competitors
is just truly a blessing.
I'm a distinguished pistol and rifle shot.
I've got 10 nra national pistol championships under my belt,
four more than anybody else has ever won,
and I've held over 30-plus nra national records.
Probably within a year of actually joining
the marine corps, my older brother passed away.
He was my best friend.
He was gonna be the best man at my wedding.
He wanted to join the marine corps.
But for medical reasons, he couldn't.
So a lot of competitions, a lot of matches, things like that,
you know, I might say a little prayer, basically, to him,
just to, you know, help settle my nerves.
And I've dedicated a lot of my victories in my life
and championships to him.
I'm here to destroy the competition.
It's me versus two senior citizens.
I mean, Chris is like 80, and gunny's probably like 110.
So I'm gonna be the next Top Shot.
Well, gentlemen, 13 marksmen have been eliminated,
and one more is about to go.
This morning, we're gonna bring back a challenge
from last season.
We're gonna let you guys choose your weapon.
Not only that, you're gonna get to call your shot.
Here are the six firearms that you will be using.
You can peruse them. They're right behind you.
Three rifles... the MLA...
The ar-15...
And the good old sharps.
We've also got three pistols...
The Browning hi-power, the .357 Magnum revolver,
and the colt official police.
There is also a wide assortment of targets
that ought to definitely keep you guys satisfied.
Here's how it's gonna work.
This is like an old-school game of horse on the basketball court.
One of you will pick a weapon, a target, d a distance.
Then each of you will attempt that shot.
You're gonna get a point for each successful shot made.
The two of you with the most points hit
at the end of two full cycles... Two rotations...
Will move on to the final challenge.
The person who comes up short and with the fewest points
will be eliminated.
Once a gun has been used, it is out of play.
And the way this is set up, all six guns will be used.
You're not gonna be able to hide from them in this challenge.
100 grand.
George... Yeah?
What would you do with 100 grand?
Probably buy at least three pistols every month
and probably two rifles every month for the whole year.
And then the rest of it... Who knows?
Chris, what would you do with the cash?
When kids got old enough to go to college,
I'd hope I'd have enough money to pay for their college,
and I wouldn't waste it, but...
Brian, how about you?
First thing, I'll pay
for my daughter's senior year of private school.
And probably put the rest of it into the house.
I'm the youngest cat in the house, you know.
I don't have any dependents, any kids, anything like that.
But, you know, Chris... He's got plans for that money.
He wants to put his kids through college.
I feel kind of bad, like, "yeah, dude,
"I'm gonna win all this money and just spend it on guns,
and your kids ain't gonna go to college."
It's kind of a crappy feeling, you know?
Well, one of you guys will be cashing that big check,
and it will be fun,
but you got to make it through today's challenge.
I'm gonna determine the shooting order
by drawing your name out of the box.
We'll see who goes first.
First up... Brian. You are the man.
Finally get to go first.
All right, Brian, first thing you got to do is to pick your weapon.
The challenge is horse... With guns.
You got to strategize. You got to figure out what you want to do.
You get to pick your target, you get to pick your distance,
and you get to pick the gun.
Coming up on "Top Shot"...
Chris is nervous.
He looks defeated before we even start playing.
If anybody was gonna make that shot,
it was gonna be me.
All right, Brian. What'll it be?
I figured, "hey, I'm gonna start off,
make these guys earn a point."
Start off with the colt official police.
The official police. What target you want?
Let me go with the shot glass with the three dice in them.
Shot glass, three dice.
Not a very big target. How far you want it out there?
50 feet.
50 feet!
Brian starting things off with a bit of confidence.
I like it. We'll set it up, and then we'll go, boys.
Marksman, ready...
Set...
Go!
Ohh.
That is an air ball. Brian misses on his shot.
Hey, not bad. It was a good effort.
I'm feeling pretty confident that if anybody
was gonna make that shot, it was gonna be me.
All right, George. The door is open.
What were you thinking, gunny?
Ohh!
Wow.
The official police... it's just an old-school revolver,
so it's a tough weapon to be so precise with.
All right, Chris. Go.
You hit the timber right below it.
Did not contact the shot glass.
I was not surprised
that all three of us missed the first shot.
To pick something so small like a shot glass of dice... it's crazy.
George, pick your poison.
Ah. M1a, please.
The MLA.
All right, brother. What do you want to shoot with it?
Well, I'm a cheap-whiskey girl, so let's go with the big jug.
- The big jug? - Yep.
There you go. How far do you want it out?
200 marker, please.
- 200 yards? - Yes.
All right. Let's do this.
George is definitely playing with his strong suit.
He's going big or go home.
Marksman, ready... Ready.
Set...Go!
George first on the board! Direct hit!
George drills the middle jug.
And not only did George take out his jug,
George took out the jug to the left with it.
So that was obviously a solid hit.
Chris Reed, you're up, buddy.
One thing I noticed throughout this whole time...
Chris was nervous.
I've never seen Chris like this in any competition,
and he looks defeated before we even start playing.
Chris Reed gonna try to answer George's shot.
Chris misses.
George holding on to a one-point lead. Good shot.
Brian, your turn.
I'm feeling pretty good, feeling pretty confident.
This is the gun I was distinguished with
shooting in the marine corps, so I know my way around an mall.
Brian with a direct hit on the bottle!
Good shot, gunny.
We're tied up... Brian and George
both have a point on the board.
Chris is gonna have to play catch-up.
And it is your turn to pick, brother.
Give me the Browning hi-power and the jar of honey.
Going back to pistols with the Browning hi-power.
How far out? 50 feet, man.
50 feet. Let's do this.
Shooter, ready...
Ready.
Set...Go!
That is a miss, Chris.
Just to the bottom left of that jar.
I was surprised.
We just came back from a competition that he smoked,
shooting smaller targets with the same pistol.
He gave me that look, like,
"dude, I don't know what's wrong with me today,
"but I'm losing it.
I ain't gonna make it back from this."
Brian, you're up.
Brian's got two points on the board.
I take the top right off that jar of honey.
I kind of figured I'd hit that with a Browning hi-power.
All right, George. Let's see what you can do.
George misses.
Man, I missed it by, like, awful.
I mean, I fail boated that thing bad.
All right, fellas. That's the end of round 1.
We are moving on to round 2. Brian, it is your call again.
Let's go with the ar-15.
Roll with the ar. What do you want to hit?
Let's go with the jar of yellow paint balls.
The jar of yellow paint balls.
How far do you want to set it out there?
75 yards. 75 yards.
All right. Head to the line. We'll get it set up.
This is, again, something that plays to Brian's strong suit.
He's had thousands and thousands of rounds of practice
behind this particular weapon,
and he's pretty comfortable with it.
Shooter, ready...
I'm ready.
Set...Go!
Brian drills it!
Nothing but glass and paint balls.
That was a good shot.
All right, George.
George misses.
Jerked it.
I pulled the trigger. It went high right.
All right, Chris.
If you miss this shot,
Brian is guaranteed a spot in the final two.
That's what's at stake. Let's do it.
Chris misses.
Chris goes up, and he misses again.
Sometimes you have a bad day at the range,
and he was having it. I think he knew it.
He was not Chris Reed, the shooter I know from competition.
Brian, congratulations, brother.
You are in the finals for sure.
Now we just got to decide which one of you guys is joining him.
You know, at this point, this is looking pretty grim for me.
I mean, I knew they'd beat me.
I mean, you know, there's no question.
Coming up on "Top Shot"...
Chris knows at this point that if I shoot one close target,
I got two to his, you know, zero.
This is gonna be a pretty hard shot.
I'm not really sure what exactly is going through his mind.
I could have kicked his ass, man.
Well, we're down to one rifle,
the old sharps, and the .357 Magnum revolver.
I'm up next.
I know the score. Gunny's already in.
Chris knows at this point that if I shoot one close target,
I got two to his, you know, zero.
He looked at me, and he basically said,
"hey, man, it's been fun."
You know, defeated already. I'm like, "shut up, man."
This is gonna be a pretty hard shot.
I'm gonna go with the .357
and that huge chalk plate
at a staggering 25 feet.
You want to set the big, square plate out at how far?
At 25 feet.
25 feet it is, my friend.
Why would George do this? I don't know.
Maybe he's trying to get in Chris' head.
There's no way we can mess this up, Chris.
All right. Make your way to the firing line. We'll get the course set.
George is setting up an easy shot here.
He can probably make this shot with his eyes closed.
George, what's the shooting position?
It doesn't matter. Just standing.
Standing? Yeah.
I'm not really sure what exactly is going through his mind.
Shooter, ready... Yep.
Set...Go.
Oh, my God, dude!
Wow.
I'm shocked. I really am.
I don't think anyone there saw it coming...
Missed, like, a 10-inch target from 25 feet.
What the hell was that?
You got it, bro.
What just happened here exactly?
I don't know.
That son of a bitch, dude.
Obviously, from my standpoint,
he missed the target intentionally.
He set up the easy shot and then shanked it.
I could have kicked his ass, man.
Go for it, bro.
Chris Reed, you're up.
Chris has been my right-hand man, you know, team Captain.
I was his first pick.
I could have shot the middle of that plate out
and got two points over Chris' one.
That's a chicken [Bleep] Move,
so I wasn't gonna go out that way.
Shooter, ready... Ready.
Set...Go.
Chris hits it.
We are tied up... One point each...
Chris and George.
You're crazy, dude.
Me and Chris made a promise day one
that we'd do what we had to do to get to the end.
It came down to the sharps rifle. It was Chris' only choice.
I don't envy you guys, 'cause I don't want to shoot that.
You don't want to have to pick your weapon
'cause there's only one left,
but you do have to choose your target and your distance.
50 yards, the plate.
The round plate at 50 yards.
There you go, my friend.
Me and Chris have no idea where to hold with the sharps rifle.
The gun has not shot consistent anytime we've touched it.
I felt in my heart,
it was the best fashion to go out... for either of us.
It was just like full circle to day one.
The best three shooters with the sharps besides Jay Lim
was me, you, and Joe.
Here we are back at jump 1.
Still don't know how to shoot the stupid thing.
Let's let it all come down to fate on the sharps and see what happens, man.
Shooter, ready...
Ready. ...Set...Go.
50 yards with the sharps rifle.
Chris getting it done with the sharps!
Nice shot.
Chris goes up and does his best...
Takes aim, shoots, and he hits it.
All right, Chris. 2-1.
It all comes down to this, George.
One shot.
You got to hit this to stay in it.
My turn. I get down, get comfy behind the rifle.
If it hits, cool. If not, deuces.
That is a miss.
Dude.
You know, I'm the first one to offer a handout,
try to help people, and expect nothing in return.
But the minute somebody tries to help me or whatever,
I mean, it's just tearing me up, man.
George, that was your last shot.
You've now been eliminated from "Top Shot."
Come over here. Say goodbye to these guys. Yep.
I'm not really sad at all to walk away from the competition.
The bottom line is,
I got what I wanted out of this competition for me.
I couldn't lose to better people. I really couldn't.
Chris, you got it, bro.
Man... You are a
I said it, like, six comps ago.
The guys I want to shoot against in the end
were Joe, Chris, and gunny.
Just so happens I got my wish.
We'll see you, dude. Okay, man.
I'm rooting for you. Son of a bitch, boy.
Did I throw myself on a grenade? No.
I played the game the way I wanted to play it.
I went out on my own terms. I knew what I was doing.
Don't regret it. Wouldn't change a thing.
Chris definitely has what it takes
to win the whole competition.
He just needs to have the mind-set
and believe that for himself.
And whatever happens,
me and Chris will be duck hunting, deer hunting for life.
And that's worth more than any title that you can give me here.
Congratulations.
You guys are the final two, and there is one challenge
standing between you guys and the title of Top Shot.
Head back to the house.
I'll see you at the next challenge.
Now I got to go shoot against gunny.
Just a bad spot to be in, man, for me.
I didn't want it this way.
Been a long, hard road, huh?
Yeah, it has. We got put somebody up there.
Old George.
Yeah. Man.
Go ahead. You did it.
George is a great guy.
From day one, you know, he's been the cockiest individual in the house.
He tries to be the tough guy and all that, but at the same time,
hell, he's just as kindhearted as anybody else I've ever met.
I'm glad he's my friend.
I'm glad I'm going into this last challenge against Chris Reed.
Chris is a formidable opponent. I give him that.
His performance over the last couple weeks
has just been stellar.
The reality is, I got to go against gunny.
You know, he's a force to be reckoned with.
He's a freaking 10-time national champion shooter,
and I'm more than willing to take him on
and try to see what I'm made of up against him.
He's a gunnery sergeant, and I got out as a Lance corporal.
So we got the young marine versus the old marine.
Good luck, gunny.
- Been a pleasure knowing you. - It's been fun.
- We'll keep up with each other. - Oh, yeah.
You ever need anything, holler at me, man.
I want to win for the bragging rights...
The ability to say, "hey, look, I'm not just a pistol guy."
I wasn't here for the money.
I was here for the title, to actually come out
and to be able to say, "hey, you know what?
I can adapt to any weapon system."
Let's go do this. Let's do it, man.
$100,000 would be a good leg up, but, at the same time,
just being able to claim the title of Top Shot
is something that will live on long after the money's gone.
Brian and Chris,
welcome to the final challenge of "Top Shot."
Well, as you can see, we've got an audience here today.
These are the other marksmen
that made it to the individual portion of this competition.
So we thought we'd invite them back
so they could see the final outcome.
Well, it all comes down to this, Brian and Chris.
The time has come to see which one of you guys
possesses the all-around skills
to be declared Top Shot and win the 100 grand.
For our final challenge, we're gonna test your skills
with some of the weapons from the past 37 days
in an extreme version of the entire competition.
Out on the range are seven stations with targets
for each shooter, where you'll be competing side by side.
Starting at station 1,
you'll throw a tomahawk into a log round 11 feet away.
At the second station, using the compound bow,
you must shoot an arrow into a tube 35 feet downrange.
The Smith & Wesson .44 Magnum is waiting at station 3.
You will have to hit one target at 25 feet
and a second target at 50 feet.
At station 4,
you'll be firing the f.A.L. Rifle from a shaky platform.
There are two targets downrange...
One at 50 yards and the other one out at 100 yards.
For station 5, you'll be using the colt 1911
to speed through a grid of 16 plates at 35 feet.
Once you get to the sixth station,
you'll use the ruger 10/22 rifle to knock down
five progressively smaller targets set out at 50 feet.
And at the seventh and final station,
you're gonna have to make a 1,000-yard shot,
firing the Barrett m82a1.
The first person to successfully make it through the course
and explode that final target will win "Top Shot"
and the $100,000 that goes along with it.
You guys ready? Yeah. Ready.
Let's do this.
You two guys, find your spot on the starting line.
We're gonna head down to the finish line and call it from there.
Good luck, guys.
This is for all the money.
I mean, this is why 16 of us came out here.
This is the one that says, "hey, you are the Top Shot."
Not happy to see the f.A.L. There, but I'll be fine.
It's a gun. It's got sights. I'll work out my issues with it.
It's gonna be tough trying to beat Brian
in this last elimination.
And whether I shoot good today,
whether shoot bad today, I know I give it my all.
You know, that's kind of the way I live my life...
Put my best foot forward and let the chips fall where they may.
Let's get it on.
If Chris loses it, I'm gonna kick his ass.
I mean, straight up.
As soon as it's over with and he's sitting there,
I'm just gonna walk up and punch him right in the junk.
Coming up on "Top Shot"...
Go!
I hear Chris over there. I'm thinking, "oh, boy."
We are all tied up! Both men drilling targets!
I'm thinking, "oh [Bleep] Boy. You better go."
Chris and Brian, this is the final challenge.
First marksman to make it all the way through this course
and hit the 1,000-yard shot
is gonna win "Top Shot" and the $100,000.
Let's do this. Marksmen, ready...

Good to see you, man.
It was a good victory.

Hey, Semper Fi, marine. Good job. Nice shooting.
Good job, Chris. Nice shooting.
It's been an extremely long road to get here.
You know, like I said from the get-go,
I'm just a good old boy from the South,
and for this happening to me... It's just a dream come true.
I'm just blessed to be here, literally.
Overall, it has been a great experience...
One that I'll probably never forget.
Man, I'm proud to be here.
I can't believe it yet, but I do own the title of Top Shot.
