Listen Later

David Packouz, a former arms dealer, discussed his journey from securing a $300 million US government contract to supply the Afghan army with ammunition to the challenges faced in fulfilling the contract. He detailed the logistical complexities, including sourcing ammunition from Albania and dealing with Chinese markings. Packouz highlighted the financial aspects, noting a 20% profit margin and his expected $15 million from the contract. He also recounted the legal repercussions, including his plea deal for fraud and Ephraim's four-year prison sentence. The conversation also touched on the 2016 film "War Dogs," based on their story.

Packouz's invention, the Beat Buddy drum machine pedal, and other music equipment under Singular Sound have also been successful. Despite his initial reluctance, he was inspired by others' success stories to help others in government contracting.
