Stan wants to change the podcast to “Gum Dudes”. We’re not sure if he means the chewing stuff, or geezers without teeth. Chicklet?
What did we do with guns this week
- Carl finally got the 5.7 reloader setup working (thanks to all those who sent in brass!)

- Stan’s going shoot his Longbow today, and loaded up some .308
- Jason Christensen bought over a “bag of Sig” parts, and Tommy had a heyday — no he has a gun without a grip and main spring

Topic
- This week, Tommy wanted to talk a bit more about training. So we decided to rehash some of last weeks topic of training.
- A concealed firearm permit is ”license to learn” and does not in any way prepare you for the situations that you may find yourself in where appropriate and lawful use of deadly force may be justified.
- The permit itself isn’t the end, it’s the beginning. Training is the next logical step to help ready you for the situations that you hope will never happened.
- You need to know how to do it, you need to know where the exits are. You need to have your “creep sensor” on so you’re aware of the people that might be a threat.
- Understand your skills and capabilities — know whether you’re an asset, or a liability.
- Instead of buying another new gun, get some training with your old one. Training would be the better choice.
