"People are super busy, and if they can tune into our content at a time when they are not in the throes of their busy day and really sit and pay attention to how to safely use the product and store it as well as get the back story of the product, ... you are going to get way more information about that product," Castle said.
GunTV already has hired about 30 people and is looking for more, she said. Several open positions now are posted online, including a prop specialist, also known as a “gun wrangler.”
GunTV also expects to partner with a firing range in the area because hosts and guests cannot fire guns in its Thousand Palms studio, Castle said. The studio, formerly known as the Palm Springs Film Factory, was designed with a cooking show or commercials in mind.
A GunTV media kit, available online for potential advertisers, describes the network as similar to iTunes — but for guns."

he goal of GunTV, which also uses the name GTV Live Shopping, is to expand to a 24/7 lineup in its first year but will start at first with a 1 to 5 a.m. schedule that includes more than four hours of shopping opportunities.

The firearms shopping channel was envisioned to appeal to gun companies, who wanted a new venue to advertise their products, and in response to what co-founder Valerie Castle of Rancho Mirage, Calif., called a nationwide "love affair with shooting sports."

"Our business philosophy is filling the need, not creating one," she said. She and partner Doug Bornstein are a couple with professional backgrounds in shopping networks.
