Flashback: Episode #30 - The CCWer's Restroom Break

Topic: The ULTIMATE Concealed Carry Beginner's Guide - Part 1

After receiving an email from a listener, Riley and Jacob were inspired to respond directly to that email with this episode today which has become the ULTIMATE guide for a beginning CCWer. We were asked to cover some subjects that newer CCWers need to know that they might not always figure out right away. Although fundamental information, we are confident newer and more experienced shooters alike will find value in this episode. Hope you enjoy the show today!

Topic: Man Sits on Cocked Gun, Shoots Self in Genitals 

Riley and Matthew talk about the latest in national and state legislative issues including one Oregon law that just passed through the state house heading for the governor's desk that WILL result in the confiscation of guns without due process!! Meanwhile on a more positive front, new legislation is introduced that goes even further than the Hearing Protection Act that would completely deregulate silencers in the federal law--the SHUSH Act looks very promising as far as legislation is concerned, but does it stand a chance in the U.S. House and Senate? Finally, don't miss the crazy story where one man gets shot in the "crown jewels" when he sits down on his loaded gun! Hit the 'PLAY' button and listen in now!!

Topic: The History of Self-Defense

Today Riley invites Dr. Steve Adams onto the podcast to talk about the history of self-defense. What sort of rights did people have during the Dark Ages and up through Colonial America while still under the rule of King George III? What important role did John Locke and other great philosophers play in shaping the thoughts and ideologies of our Founding Fathers? Was the 2nd Amendment just a convenient idea that made it into the Bill of Rights? Or did it serve a greater and much more intentional purpose? Riley and Dr. Adams break it all down and discuss the influences behind the 2nd Amendment and the right to self-defense. We hope this episode is enjoyable and especially relevant for you on Independence Day! Press 'PLAY' above to listen now!

Topic: Keeping a Gun on the Nightstand?

Today Riley and Jacob talk about different ways and strategies for keeping your gun handy yet secure on or near the nightstand for quick access while sleeping. Jacob spent some time evaluating and comparing different quick access safes including how quickly you can deploy and even compared this to just keeping the gun on the nightstand without any sort of safe being used. The problem with this? Security, especially with little ones around, but we also need to consider security from burglaries and break-ins. Hope you enjoy this episode today!
