Reticle Up Podcast hosted by 3GunKenzie

Jason Day of Unit Solutions sits down to talk to me about the Unit4 non-lethal training rifle. From active shooter response to close-quarters combat, the UNIT4 will vastly improve your tactical training efforts. This non-lethal training rifle is great for dry fire training with blanks, marking, and non-marking rounds.

We talk about how this training rifle is effective for LEO and military applications, as well as with the newest gun owner, competitive shooter, or firearm instructor. Jason also shares his experience as a father teaching his kids how to shoot guns from an early age and how this training rifle makes for a safe and effective training tool.

Tomas is the ultimate knife master. He has a passion for martial arts and has years of experience wielding blades. In this episode, we dive into how he got into knives, what some of his favorite blades are, and what scouting has taught him along the way.

Allen goes by @sumnlikeaboss on Instagram and is an awesome content creator, gun influencer, and writer in the industry. Allen comes from an EMT background and shares how he found himself "influencing" on the internet.

He shares his story of taking a bet on himself and working full-time in the firearms industry. He shares some of his EDC recommendations, from belts to holsters and the tactical fanny pack!

Allen also works with some major brands in the industry and shares how he got started working with them, managing their social media platforms, and more!

He shares a hysterical yet mean comment he just recently received on YouTube and how he deals with the good, bad, and ugly comments. We also talk about what it was like being a guest judge on the Build Box TV Show, what he thought of winning Most Dapper Influencer at this year's Gundies Awards, and more!
