  • Ep #177

    Always a fresh look from different pockets of the firearm community! Refreshingly non political, but touches on those areas occasionally without a judgemental bias! A 'must hear weekly'!

  • Please fix the audio

    This is 5 star content with 1 star audio. I have to crank up the volume to barely hear it and then a notification from a text is like an explosion. Sometimes the speakers are at totally different volume levels. Please address this so I can give you the 5 stars the content deserves.

  • Ep #71 took me back

    Took me way back, to the 80’s when I was helping to train a team for the “Nijmegen Military March”, 4 marathons on 4 consecutive days is the definition of brutal, top it with boots, full lbe/Alice pack and an AR, you get the picture. Great show!

  • Good…but horrendous audio quality

    Good content but horrendous audio quality. I don’t know if they record with cheap mics, an inferior studio setup or just a poor mix, but this podcast is unlistenable to my ears. I won’t listen again until TFB fixes their audio.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

TFB Behind the Gun #206: Ryan Van Aken w/ Frytech
Q: Are there any tuning requirements when switching between calibers?
No, it works across multiple calibers without needing tuning, as the magnets can self-tune to different setups.
TFB Behind the Gun #206: Ryan Van Aken w/ Frytech
Q: What are the benefits of your magnetic buffer system?
It's designed to reduce recoil, providing a push instead of a punch, and it allows for smoother operation without the gas in the face typical of other systems.
TFB Behind the Gun #206: Ryan Van Aken w/ Frytech
Q: How did you get into the business of making magnetic buffer systems?
I didn't get a gun until around five years ago when I felt I needed one for my family. I started taking things apart and questioning them and eventually went down the rabbit hole into firearms.
TFB Behind the Gun #205: Fast Matches w/ Russell Phagan
Q: How would you recommend most people prepare for this kind of match if they've never been to a two gun match before?
Get familiar with an action match environment by attending whatever flavor of local action match is closest to them.
TFB Behind the Gun #205: Fast Matches w/ Russell Phagan
Q: Do you think there's a specific reason why two-gun is way more popular than three-gun?
I think it's a combination of factors that basically started going all the way back to the North Hollywood Bank robbery where police officers found that the shotguns they carried weren't adequate for the adversaries they were facing.
