For those of you who have not cut the cord and ditched your cable/satellite service, a new cable channel could be joining your programming line-up: GunTV. It's a 24-hour shopping channel for firearms and firearms accessories.

The channel will roll out on January 20, 2016 and will start with a six-hour daily broadcast and then move to a 24-hour programming schedule beginning 2017.

The New York Times writes, "The project is the brainchild of Valerie Castle and Doug Bornstein, two home shopping industry veterans based in Rancho Mirage, Calif., who saw what looked to them like an untapped market."

And it is an untapped market. There were nearly 21 million background checks for firearms purchases in 2014. The Times describes "Americans’ appetite for firearms has in recent years seemed insatiable."

Insatiable. How adorable.
