Tonight’s Topics of Discussion

Judges  Lock Up The 2nd Amendment

I. Supreme Court Upholds Biden Regulations on “Ghost Guns” (M - Note: Snope v Brown)

II. 9th Circuit Judge Issues Dissent; Takes Apart Gun on Video

III. DOJ Considers Abandoning Defense of Restrictions on Silencers

I want to talk a little bit about the constant attack on our God given right to protect ourselves.  It’s obvious that anti-gun politicians are constantly trying to erode the second amendment.  We can’t fight them alone and that's why I’m so proud to be partnered with the Second Amendment Foundation. Their constant litigation is benefiting all of us, but they need our support. You can help by becoming a member at SAF.org  For as little as $25 a year you can help preserve our rights for generations to come.

I love my Tupperware guns, but I have to admit that there is something special about a custom 1911. Kings River Customs just wrapped up their 1st collaboration with Master engraver Alex Surmak and it’s up on Instagram to check out. Obviously this type of work comes at a pretty high cost, but these guys put that same attention to detail in everything they do including their entry level PFG Model. We don’t want price to be the reason our listeners can’t get into one of their beautiful 1911’s; so from now till April 30th, email Matt and tell him you are interested in a Phoenix Fighting Gun and tell him that you want to apply the TGE10 discount you will get 10% off a Kings River Custom 1911 of your very own.

II. Run and Gun
