  • Great info, great discussions

    I started listening to the podcast around the time I started to consider concealed carry. I’ve listened to and 3 years of backlog plus the current stuff and found this to be an incredibly insightful and interesting listen everytime. I’ve been a CCW holder for just over a year now and not only has this podcast been full of good info for concealed carriers but it also got me interested in trying out competition shooting. I’ve been shooting SCSA and rimfire challenges for 8 months and I’m hooked.
