John Walsh is going to try and finish what Piers Morgan started at CNN.

He says that he will beat the drum against the gun lobby.

Walsh, whose CNN show, “The Hunt,” debuts Sunday, said Monday that politicians are “scared shitless” of the NRA.

Walsh, a gun owner who says he loves to hunt, is a longtime advocate of background checks and other measures for gun sales.

He said he has “testified in every state capital multiple times” about guns.

“I’ve hunted all my life. I hunt quail on my ranch,” he said. “And I am the biggest advocate for background checks out of any gun owner in America.”

CNN President Jeff Zucker noted that Walsh has spoken in favor of gun-control measures “many, many, many times on CNN.”

Now, he will be paid to do it.
