This week we invite Steve Koski back to talk about installing new sights on pistols (we use Glock for this example).

What we did with guns this week:

• Steve went shooting, and bought a bunch of stuff from Lone Wolf. Dist.
• Tom and Steve are working on an Idaho IDPA match.
• Carl came up with a bunch of “Public Service Announcements” for the show.
• Stan and Carl worked on the MAG40 drills.
• Tommy loaded a bunch of 9mm rounds and bought a new holster.

Sponsors:

• Ft. Knox Safes: They can take anything you can dish out.
• Concealment Solutions: inside the waistband? Outside the waist band? Jason’s got you covered!
• Lone Wolf Dist.: Stuff for your Glock!
• Beacon Brass: For all of your brass needs.
• Arms of America: AK parts, part kits, accessories.
• CRKT Knives: they know better than to bite the hands that feed them.
• Crusader Weaponry: Home of the Stanbow.

News

• Auggie “Smith” sent in a story about an armed bystander (with Concealed Handgun License) who stopped a stabbing outside a San Antonio, Texas school.
• “Stop! Stop! Stop! (bang bang bang!)”
• Steve J. sends in a story about a woman in Detroit, Michigan who was being car-jacked. The armed car-jackers didn’t know that she held a valid concealed carry permit, and returned fire — causing the car-jackers to flee.

Misfire Award

• Glen sends in a story about a man who decided to test some bulletproof glass — by shooting at it with his shotgun.

Topic

• Cool stuff that you can do with your Glock’s stock sights.

Email

• Doug emailed in, says he got half-way through episode 207 about training requirements and concealed carry permits.
• Jeff sends in an email about how he starts off his week with the GunDudes. He also sent in a picture with a room full of red shirts from Star Trek:TOS with the caption “The Walking Dead”.
• Richard J. sends in an email about how episode 212 should be our “boiling point” episode.
• Jessie sends in an email that he thinks there should be some kind of qualification to get a carry license. We disagree. We think training is important, and you should be trained. But self-defense is a Right, and Rights don’t have requirements people have to meet to be able to get them. We don’t get Rights from the Government.
• Tracy B. refers to episode 207 and Tommy talking about grabbing — what?!
• Duane writes in wondering why we don’t cover the 4-rules of gun safety. Good point! We’ll cover them now!

Four Rules of Gun Safety

1. Always treat every gun as if it is loaded!
2. Never point a gun at anything that you’re not willing to kill or destroy!
3. Keep your finger off the trigger until you are on-target and ready to shoot.
4. Identify your target, what is in front of it and what is beyond it.
