  • A good show, greatly damaged by incredibly annoying noises

    The conversation is engaging, the topics are often insightful and interesting, but…

    The incessant harsh clicks, racks, hammer drops and rattles are incredibly annoying after a few minutes. Especially with headphones.

  • Living the American Dream

    If you enjoy competitive practical shooting discussions with tons of sarcasm, then this podcast is for you. Each person on this podcast brings a different approach to the shooting sports. Steve is like the average American male, he began his journey in adulthood looking for love, tried a few guns here and there, then he locked eyes with the Glock. While it lacked beauty, it accepted at practicality and reliability. It was everything he had been looking for. Robert is like a polygamist, his heart... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

PARAcast 486 "We Swear, No More Divisions. Maybe One More"
Q: What are your thoughts on combining divisions for concealed shooters and race gunners?
It could be an interesting idea, but there would need to be new rules, which USPSA just doesn't currently have in place.
PARAcast 478 "Redditors versus Nationals"
Q: What are your thoughts on LOCO and the path forward for the organization?
The divisions are largely merged, and they should consider a single division for slide right optics.
PARAcast 473 "Hangfires and Hand Grenades"
Q: What can we do as club members to show our disagreement with the club board?
Members should write to the board to express their opinions and consider voting them out during officer elections if necessary.
PARAcast 473 "Hangfires and Hand Grenades"
Q: Have you ever dealt with or witnessed a hang fire?
Yes, I once experienced a hang fire when shooting my grandmother's 303 Enfield, leading to a surprising and slightly terrifying moment.
Paracast 470 "Franchising Success"
Q: What is your gun slash magazine prep routine for a match?
For local matches, I just put the gun in the bag and show up. For major matches, I strip down and replace the springs.
