I found this hecking interesting article about Behind the Scenes of 'The Gun'. There's a fun information about what happened during the filming, when they especially made the last pier scene in "The Gun" episode. Also some unseen behind the scenes pictures.
The article also kind of described what MacGyver stuff their own studio kept inside, all the sets etc...

The filming day was told very detailed and what happened after every camera cut. I liked mostly about the story, when every time Richard was suppose to speak his line on the camera, some airplane flew above their head interrupting the scene all the time or some seagulls screaming became louder and louder

There was also little mention, why there was same actor playing couple different characters in the series

Nice, pictures. I gotta check out Kate's site a little more. Nice behind the scenes pictures. I'm not a shirt guy but I really like that blue shirt in that episode. I really love that moment when he walks in to get out Breeze and loosens the button with one hand all cool like.

I think the poison that was used was applied to this knife, passed to the mutton when it was cut and then activated by the wine. - MacGyver.

It's a gem! Well written & extremely detailed. The cast & crew are totally at ease with Kate and anything that was mentioned or went on that day ..... was placed into this diary. Well ..... probably not 'everything'.

Interesting that ALF competed with MacGyver in the same time slot. We never missed an episode of ALF .... which may explain why I cannot for the life of me remember the Pete Thornton character .... probably because between traveling, watching ALF, and playing hockey most nights ... I just didn't see that many episodes.

The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in a man's determination.

Whether you think you can or you can't .... you're probably right!

There is a comfortable familiarity about Richard. Though naturally shy, he has had years of experience in the spotlight and has learned from practice how to put others at ease by being the person they expect him to be. The mannerisms are familiar too, the gentle voice, the mischievous smile, the expressive hands. Those eyes sparkle when he speaks, watch intently as he listens, and conversation is easy.

That is so him! I saw that sparkle when our eyes connected.

Interesting that when they get out of the container they all had lines but didn't make the final cut. Lots of nice stuff here. So he wanted to get rid of the Jeep? Still glad it made it's return in season 7.

Wow this is so great! I've often lamented that there are no behind the scenes for MacGyver, so this was a nice inside look!
