  • NTI episode

    Great episode with Hearne and guests. This sounds like a great event for evaluating training and skills. One big critique of the episode, not once in the audio podcast does Hearne or any guest tell the listener what NTI stands for. Nit good. This is a pet peeve of mine in writing and shows. Explain at least once what the abbreviation stands for.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Fighting 20 Gauge with Erick Gelhaus
Q: What are the biggest practical considerations for accessory and ammo ecosystems if the 20 Gauge gains traction?
Expect more shell colors to differentiate 20 Gauge from 12 Gauge, more aftermarket shells/cards, and broader optics support as manufacturers adjust to a larger market; the timing depends on demand and production scale.
Fighting 20 Gauge with Erick Gelhaus
Q: How does the 20 Gauge platform recoil and handling compare to 12 Gauge for typical users, especially smaller clients or students?
They discuss that recoil is more manageable, but the practical adoption depends on balance, weight, and user comfort, with some preference for the 20 Gauge in smaller builds or for training purposes.
Fighting 20 Gauge with Erick Gelhaus
Q: Is the Flight Control 20 Gauge ammo viable enough to drive broader adoption and spur competition among manufacturers?
The guests suggest the viability hinges on availability and performance across ranges and conditions, with early impressions leaning cautiously positive but contingent on consistent supply and demonstrated reliability.
Competent & Dangerous: Master the Skills to be a Man Among Me
Q: What advice would you have for the audience? How could they get started?
Find an American Heart Association or Red Cross CPR class and start there as it's one of the most likely skills you'll need.
Audience Questions with Hearne and Rehn
Q: Can you share your thoughts on the practical considerations when teaching firearms?
Both John and Karl emphasize the necessity of adapting teaching methods based on the students' equipment and prior knowledge, as well as focusing on effective communication and practical demonstrations.
