  • Jon Hatcher (Sun & Shadow)

    Whats up y'all?! This is a great episode with my friend Jon Hatcher of Sun & Shadow. I have been talking to Jon for years about shooting since I first met him at a DMR match back in the day. We talk about gas guns, precision rifles, competition to hone your skills, and a bunch of other great topics. Jon runs a company called Sun & Shadow and has a pretty exciting match coming up that he has been planning. I hope y'all enjoy this as much as I did!

  • Joe Dawson (Bruiser Industries)

    Kicking off the start of the year with Joe Dawson of Bruiser Industries. Joe has become a great friend and someone whose perspective on shooting I value. I initially wanted to have a conversation around LPVOs since Joe is a self-proclaimed glass-snob, but we ended up getting off topic and talking about things like precision carbine shooting, Japanese glass, CQB, rifle-length gas systems, and more!
