In this episode, Edgar and Isaac dive deep into Colion Noir and the ongoing confusion and overreach surrounding Colorado’s new concealed carry training laws — with a particular focus on Denver Police’s misinterpretation of competition-based certification. They discuss GFEN’s ongoing battles with various sheriff’s departments, the legal definitions of “firearms competitions,” and what students and instructors can do to advocate for themselves when counties refuse to follow the law.

Later in the episode, the conversation shifts to self-defense realities — featuring a powerful analysis of Michael Waller’s two defensive shootings as discussed on the Locked, Cocked, and Uncensored podcast. The hosts explore human performance under stress, training limitations, and how adrenaline and mindset shape outcomes in life-and-death moments.

“Just because you live under a rock doesn’t mean we’re not legit.” – Edgar
“Rights work when you take the responsibility to protect those rights.” – Isaac
“Adrenaline isn’t the problem—it’s the reason you’re still alive.” – Edgar

The episode underscores a recurring truth: freedom requires effort. Whether confronting Denver PD’s misinterpretation of the law or studying the mental calculus of self-defense, Edgar and Isaac remind listeners that gun rights are preserved only when exercised, defended, and responsibly upheld.
