Before I introduce our 100th episode, I want to say thanks to the WLS team that I talk to every week, the listeners and viewers that make me laugh every day, our editor that does a great job every week and the Firearms Radio Network.

On our 100th episode, you’d think things would be good to go by now, but… that’s not the way it went, haha.

During the intro, my scripts that play and fade music reset so we had to do that twice. A little ways into the show, I rolled over and broke the power cord for the digital recorder. There is a 20 minute portion of the show that I had to splice in from YouTube audio. Then my mic started echoing so I had to <unmute>, talk, <mute> every time I wanted to laugh or say something. All while emailing invites to keep a steady flow of guests on the show for 2 and a half hours. We did end up cutting some of the terrible echo and for that I apologize to the guests that get short changed.

Having said all that, it was still a great time and I really enjoyed ‘meeting’ and seeing the listeners that could make it.

It’s been an amazing ride that we are all excited to continue. Thanks to every guest, every advertiser, every patreon and every listener.

Thanks for all you do, all of the support and most of all WELCOME TO NEW YORK, IT’S SATURDAY NIIIII… Wait, that’s not right. Here’s to many more episodes!

Definitions are Definite: Defining buzzwords in gun control

By
We Like Shooting
-
If it bleeds, it leads. This is the mantra of today’s competitive news media. Though the psychology and reasoning behind it will be the topic of another article, it is important to understand that the news isn’t there to be objective and inform you, it is there to grab your attention and instill fear into you.

One of the primary strategies that many news outlets will use comes in the form of buzzwords. These buzzwords are often used incorrectly or out of context in a manner that is meant to elicit a fear response from the reader. This is especially true when it comes to terms and concepts regarding firearms and their uses, so with that in mind, this article will attempt to clarify the mistakes and/or deceptions that take place in the media.

“Assault Rifle” – This is one of the most misused terms found in headlines, articles, ‘studies’, and TV news segments. The definition of ‘Assault Rifle’ is not only nationally accepted, but it’s also internationally accepted. The easiest definition of Assault Rifle to understand is, “a selective fire rifle that uses an intermediate cartridge and a detachable magazine”. Select fire means the rifle can change between semi-auto and full auto modes. Assault rifles are a subcategory of machine guns, and are therefore regulated by the NFA. Since the NFA’s inception in 1934, there have been a total of 2 homicides committed with legally owned machine guns, neither was an assault rifle. Aside from an extremely few examples of illegally acquired or modified rifles, fully automatic firearms are so rarely used to commit crimes that they are a statistical anomaly. Because of that exceedingly tiny percentage, it is within 99.99% certainty that any time a news report announces that a person has an assault rifle, it is false. When it comes to semi-automatic rifles (referred to as sporting rifles) the next definition will attempt to explain the difference between these two mechanically identical rifles. l

6

“Assault Weapon” – The most important thing to know about an assault weapon is that there is no simple definition of assault weapon. There are several ‘feature’ qualifications defined under the 1994 Assault Weapon Ban, a combination of which can change a firearm that is legal to one that is illegal, despite the mechanical operating system of the two firearms being identical. A few different states have one or two feature disqualifications, but based on the flowchart above, one can have this ‘compliant’ AR-15, while not having a standard configuration. Keeping in mind that the misinterpreted or misrepresented concept of an assault weapon, a semi-automatic rifle with specific features that supposedly make them more dangerous, account for less than 2% of all gun crime, it’s disingenuous to bill these firearms as a statistically significant threat to the public.

Lets discuss a few features that suddenly turn a semi-automatic rifle into an assault weapon. First and foremost, the “high capacity clip”, this is a misnomer on a number of levels. First of all, a clip is a storage and ammunition feeding device used to fill a magazine with ammunition. Usually, clips are used in conjunction with WWII and vietnam era firearms with fixed magazines. What is implied is “high capacity magazines”, though that definition is debatable. Pistol magazines range from 5 rounds to as many as 30 or more, depending on the design of the magazine, rifle magazines can range from 5 to 100. Most modern semi-auto pistols come with magazines that accept 17 round magazines and most semi-auto rifles come with magazines that accept 30 or more round magazines. This is what is called ‘standard capacity’. The argument being floated around is that having high capacity magazine bans would prevent mass shootings from happening. However, as we have seen over the years, magazine capacity has had no impact on mass shootings whatsoever. The Virginia Tech shooter used a Walther P22 and a Glock 19, which take 10-round and 15-round mags respectively and would not be banned by most magazine restriction laws. The Washington Navy Yard shooter used a Remington 870 express shotgun that has a 7-round tube magazine. The Isla Vista shooter used pistols and had several 10-round magazines. The most recent Charleston Church shooter used a Glock pistol that takes 13-round magazines and he reloaded several times. Other shootings, like the Colorado Theater shooting and the Gabby Giffords shooting saw the assailant’s magazines jam and they either had to change guns or were tackled by nearby people. There are many more examples of shootings, but magazine capacity is not a determining factor in the ability of a shooter to commit an act of mass murder.

7

Another aspect of an ‘assault weapon’ that is curiously identified as making a firearm more deadly is a “barrel shroud”. By definition, a barrel shroud is, “a covering attached to the barrel of a firearm, that partially or completely encircles the barrel which prevents operators from injuring themselves on a hot barrel. Slides, extensions of the stock that do not fully encircle the barrel, and the receiver (or frame) of a firearm itself are generally not described as barrel shrouds, though they in fact do act as such”. The logic behind the ban is that not having a barrel shroud will prevent a shooter from firing multiple rounds in rapid succession because the barrel will heat up and they will hurt their hand, even though other parts of a gun, that perform the exact same function, would be perfectly legal. As shown in previous examples, there are handguards commonly used on rifles that are AWB compliant, which attach directly to the barrel that are not considered barrel shrouds. The reasoning behind this bannable feature is illogical and is by name only, not actual function.

A third feature that changes a firearm to an assault weapon is a pistol grip. The appeal to fear reasoning for banning pistol grip is that this feature allows for ‘spray firing from the hip’. Not only is this feature not made for that purpose, it is never used for it. This video demonstrates the difference between traditional stocks and pistol grips. Not only does the pistol grip not allow for the claim being made, but the traditional stock actually allows for faster, more comfortable firing in that position. If it hasn’t been made clear already, these features are arbitrarily chosen by activists and politicians who aren’t familiar with the mechanics of firearms in the slightest.

The bayonet lug is a feature that is also demonized for being extremely dangerous. Bayonet lugs are standard feature on most military muskets, rifles, and shotguns, and on some civilian long arms. It is intended for attaching a bayonet, which is typically a long spike or thrusting knife. The argument being put forth that this turns a firearm into an assault weapon is that the addition of a bayonet (a knife or pike that attaches to a gun) makes the gun less deadly. Despite no more than a 1 or 2 instances of someone actually using a bayonet attached to a gun in the commission of a crime, that specific feature is an anachronistic accoutrement included on firearms more as a tradition than an actual tactical appendage.

The flash suppressor is one of the last major features that is questionably responsible for turning a firearm into an assault weapon. “A flash suppressor, also known as a flash guard, flash eliminator, flash hider, or flash cone, is a device attached to the muzzle of a rifle that reduces its visible signature while firing by cooling or dispersing the burning gases that exit the muzzle, a phenomenon typical of carbine-length weapons. Its primary intent is to reduce the chances that the shooter will be blinded in low-light shooting conditions. Contrary to popular belief, it is only a minor secondary benefit if a flash suppressor reduces the intensity of the flash visible to the enemy.” It’s not exactly clear why the flash suppressor makes a firearm an assault weapon, but the only logical conclusion is that the feature performs the job it was created to do. How that creates a more deadly firearm has never been adequately explained.

The last terms that are frequently misused and mishandled by the media has to do with the claim of what “mass shootings” are and that “mass shootings are increasing”. The definition that is generally accepted by the government and academia is “a gun crime in which at least four people other than the shooter are killed.” The root of this definition comes from the FBI’s description of mass murder which is “murdering four or more persons during an event with no “cooling-off period” between the murders.”  The important distinction to note is that the main qualifiers here are the number of people killed and it happens during a singular event. It is important to recognize this because there are several activist organization who specifically attempt to re-define mass shooting so that if 4 people are shot, and not killed, it qualifies. While this may seem logical to some, it’s important to note that casting a wider net like this has unintended consequences. The intent of changing the definition is to show that more ‘mass shootings’ are occurring or their number is increasing. Unfortunately for those organizations, their own numbers prove the falsehood of those claims. With one such website, run by anti-gun activists claim that in 2013, there were 363 mass shootings. Taken at face value, and with no other context, that would seem like an alarming problem as well as a number suggesting a rising trend. However, the following year, 2014, showed the number to be 283, which is a 22% drop. If their falsely adjusted numbers are to be trusted and the trend were to follow this same pattern, there would be no mass murders within 5 years. Experts in the field, on the other hand, have a much more thorough approach that has shown that the number of mass shootings has stayed at a steady rate for over 30 years. There are a number of myths and hyperbole that are shown by the media to gain attention as well as ad revenue generating clicks.

In summation, it’s important to know that there are lots of misunderstandings, ignorance, and misinformation in the media. Some of it is driven by a desire to gain attention, some is done to push an agenda. Reporters are not experts when it comes to many different subjects, and neither are a number of activists who pretend to be, so treating what is seen on the news as gospel is a fallacious notion. When it comes to watching the news, it’s important that viewers not be swayed by straw men, appeals to fear and emotion through misuse, manipulation, and exaggeration of language. Research the terms, understand what they mean and in what context they are used so you can make well informed decisions and arguments when it comes to the subject of firearms and the media.

World 3 Gun – Does simulation provide value?

By
We Like Shooting
-
Earlier last month we met up with Charlie from 248shooter.com at World 3 Gun in Farmington Hills, MI for a day of gun fun. Billed as a training and competition arena, World 3 Gun offers all of that and more. This isn’t necessarily the 3-gun most know, as its pistol, carbine and full auto carbine, no shotgun at this point.Also, it’s airsoft.
At the Great American Outdoor Show we experienced the NRA’s 3GE (3 Gun Experience) and had a lot of fun shooting mock 3-gun courses with airsoft guns. I think we visited more than the kids did. When we met W3G owner Peter Bakatselos at one of the many shows/conventions we go to every year, we knew we had to try it.Upon entrance, there is a stand full of kit, such as belts, mag pouches, LBV, plate carriers and more. They quickly outfitted us with the gear we needed and briefed us on the guns we would be using, the equipment, the course and more. Obviously we were chomping at the bit so we got right into it. Peter preaches thinking and problem solving and we witnessed it first hand. First we did some defensive style drills on paper, a bit of moving and shooting as well as off hand and strong hand drills. From there we moved into one stage that required some thinking.The stage has a large area in the middle that has three targets attached to a robot vaccuum. You know, the kind that senses barriers and changes directions, etc. This resulted in some true chaos as you could never tell where it would be and we were always shooting at targets on the other side. The stage starts out with a cornhole game. Timer sounds, you must sink one beanbag in a cornhole board, then move to your first shooting position. Engage the moving targets, engage some other targets, run across, walk across a balance beam, shoot some more, etc.

It’s very strange how something as simple as tossing a beanbag can totally fog your brain as to the task you need to perform. Integrating these thinking exercises was actually really hard, because we hadn’t done it much before, if at all. Then we moved to another stage where our first task was to activate a swinging target, run to a barrel, open a combination lock, then engage the swinger and other targets before the swinger stopped moving (60 seconds).

Again, very difficult, in fact, even though I knew about the lock and had watched two other people do it, I completely skipped the lock and engaged the targets. I was absolutely shocked and it shows that my mind game was not prepared. This is also very important when stage planning at a shooting competition. Your mental game needs to be just as good if not better than your actual shooting skill. Through these different drills, we started exercising some parts of our shooting skills that we hadn’t previously and really exposed some gaps in critical thinking under pressure.

The culmination of what we learned, we finally entered the arena, which is set up like a tactical training / room clearing facility with puzzles sprinkled in, targets hidden, corners, windows, targets for both pistol and rifle and on and on. This was also a ton of fun and a great learning experience.

I will say that as a consumer, I don’t love their members only scheme. I would love to be able to just walk in, pay a fee and leave. The staff however was great and we had an incredible time. This is great training and an excellent supplement but not a replacement for live fire training. Even though the airsoft guns are good and the slide cycles, they do not recoil like a live firearm. Our best guess was that you would want to live fire at least as much as you airsoft train. Certain skills can be learned with airsoft and perfected with live fire. It’s not a replacement, but it is a damn good supplement and I wish there was one near me.

10 Budget Minded Firearms

By
We Like Shooting
-
Lets talk top 10 budget guns. As someone who has had to scrimp and save for my firearms, I have had to put a lot of thought into my purchasing decisions. There are cheap guns, there are budget guns, and there are undervalued guns. These guns are numbered according to price.

1. Mosin Nagant 91/30.

In the foreseeable future, the Mosin will remain the premiere budget gun and can still be found for $150. They are built like tanks, have some modicum of accuracy, and have extremely affordable ammunition. For having fun at the range, hunting, SHTF, or rowing your boat, the mosin is the king.

2. IAC Hawk 981/2

IAC Hawk

A new up and comer from China that looks to be a, forgive me for using the phrase, ‘game changer’ in the realm of shotguns. The IAC is a Remmington 870 clone, and by all accounts a very good one. Though there might be a few quality control issues regarding fit and finish, for $150 you can have a shotgun that has near 100% parts compatability with an 870. That means all the furniture, magazine extension tubes, and other accessories should work. People have used the 981/2 in conjunction with the bullpups unlimited 870 bullpup stock and that makes for a very affordable home defense option.

3. Hi-Point

Hi-Point

I am grouping all Hi-points into one category, but they span the cheap and budget guns. While cheaply made, the pistols are solid and can be very reliable. They are blockier than a glock and weigh as much as a brick, but for a throw away, knock around gun, they can’t be beat and can be had starting around $150. The Hi-Point carbines are fantastic budget rifles. They are magazine compatible-ish with the pistols, are surprisingly accurate, have ergonomic and functional stocks, and in my experience they have been extremely reliable. Nowhere else are you going to be able to find a .45 carbine for under $300.

4. Chiappa Little Badger.

Chiappa

For under $170, you can have an excellent survival .22lr that folds away for storage. There are a surprising number of value added features on these little guns. Along with a short quad rail fore end (the bottom rail of that can be removed to allow for more complete folding of the rifle), it has a rail section behind the trigger that allows for the attaching of a pistol grip and the barrel is threaded to accept flash hiders, muzzle brakes, or suppressors. With the only noise being the impact of the hammer on the firing pin, the ability to have movie-quiet suppressed shooting is extremely attractive.

5. Mossberg Maverick 88

Mossberg Maverick

Though more affordable ($200) than their American made cousins, the 500 series, these Mexican sourced shotties have garnered a very good reputation. When they were first manufactured, there were some reliability issues that stemmed from having only one transfer bar for the pump action, but that has since been rectified and many people consider this their go-to budget shotgun. Most, but not all parts are interchangeable with the 500, so a good number of accessories will work.

6. Tokarev

Tokarev

There are a few variants of these classic Ruskie pistols that are available for sale in the states and the choice comes down to caliber. The Romanian TT-C’s ($240) come in the 7.62×25 original chambering and it is a hell of a cartridge. It’s the equivalent of a com-bloc .357 Sig, blazing out of a pistol around 1,400-1,500fps with an 85 grain bullet. These rounds are known to defeat level IIA and IIIA soft body armor, so it can be a very effective round. The problem is that much of the surplus 7.62×25 has dried up so you will have to pay for more expensive, newly manufactured ammo. You could get yourself a PPSh 43 ($330) in the same chambering for ammo compatibility. Zastava M70a Tokarev’s ($275) come chambered in 9mm, so if you have other pistols or carbines chambered in 9mm, that will offer ammo compatibility as well.

7. Break action .223’s

Break

Coming in around the $270 mark, H&R and Rossi rifles are simple, accurate, rugged, and time tested. They can come with a top rail that allows for scope mounting and because they’re chambered in .223, ammo is cheap and plentiful. They’re like the big brother of the Little Badger, without the foldability.

8. Savage Axis .223/.308

Savage Axis

This rifle rides the border of the budget/undervalued section. Both variants can be had for around $280, which is a fantastic value in a brand that is historically known for very good quality and accuracy. They feature 4-round detachable magazines, have 22” barrels, and are drilled and tapped for scope mounts. As mentioned before, .223 is a very budget friendly round, but the .308 is perfect for deer and other big game hunting. Coming out of a 22” barrel will maximize both cartridges velocities, giving you great long distance ballistic performance.

9. Canik TP9 SA/SF

Canik TP9

When they were brought to market last year, the Canik TP9SA’s took the market by storm, much of which was a result of hypermarketing by Century, but the gun definitely lives up to the hype. I would squarely put the Canik in the realm of ‘undervalued’. You can read my personal review of the Canik here. There are a number of people who have, somewhat justifiably, been concerned with the functionality of a decocker on a single action pistol. The decocker can be disabled, preferably by a gunsmith, or you can wait till the end of the year when Canik comes out with their new SF model. For $310-$330, these handguns have fantastic quality and functionality.

10. Homebrew AR-15

Homebrew

If you are the do-it-yourself type, an AR-15 can be built for extremely cheap. E3 Arms has been known to have completely assembled lowers go on sale for as little as $109. Follow that with a PSA upper with parts for $290  and you have a complete AR for JUST under $400. Prices on AR’s and their parts and accessories continue to drop, so it is currently a buyers market. If you keep you eyes peeled, you can walk away with a pretty cool gun that you made yourself for a hell of a price.

BlackHawk Gideon Tactical Knife

By
Eric TGL
-

A while back, I was fortunate enough to obtain a sample blade from Blackhawk’s tactical knife collection. Better known for their excellent line of tactical back packs and Serpa holsters (which I have personally carried for a great number of years), Blackhawk collaborated with some of the brightest minds in the industry to offer an affordable production knife for the tactical community. Coming from a Law Enforcement / SWAT background, I understand the importance of a good quality knife for daily use, but most of the time, it comes with a hefty price tag. Everything from cutting ropes to cutting grabby offenders hands away from your service weapon while fighting for your life, a knife must be sharp at all times and strong enough not to break when the going gets rough. In this review, we take a look at the Blackhawk Gideon Tanto fixed blade combat knife.

When it first arrived, it had an impressively colorful box with images of the knife all around and a list of features on three sides. This is nice to see and probably helps the knife get the buyers attention when sitting in a glass case at the store, but absolutely nothing else. When retrieving the knife from its box, it was still in its kydex sheath. I was happy to see this material used due to the rigidity and usefulness of kydex in lashing a sheath to a pack or chest rig. As I withdrew the knife, I had to depress a smart designed little tab just above the hilt to allow the blade to escape. This would later aid in knife retention when mounting inverted on the strap to my ballistic plate carrier.

DSC07725

While holding the knife in my hand, I was impressed by the heft of a smaller sized combat blade. Constructed of AUS8A and measuring only 10.2 inches overall with a true 5 inch blade, the thick spine of the knife gave it the overall weight of a small .22 pistol. The all steel construction ran from the blade, through to the pommel where a pointed “skull breaker” tip protruded from the well fit G10 scales. The edge of the tip was constructed as such the end user would easily be able to deploy it as a glass breaker or raking device during grappling.

DSC07639

With a noticeable curve in the grip, the whole knife balanced well and felt very natural in my hand with a positive hand stopping hilt to prevent slicing a finger. The grips were CNC machined for precise fit to the handle that is easy to maintain even when wet. While finished in a black Ti-Nitride for protection against the elements, I would have liked to seen a flat dark earth option offered in order to not stand out from a basic camo rig setup.

After a few months of using the Gideon Tanto, I was able to clearly determine what I liked and didn’t like about this handy offering by Blackhawk. Keeping in mind, the main purpose of this knife design is for slashing and piercing, I listed the pros and cons of my experience.

PROS

  • Small and strong, not taking up a lot of room on my kit.
  • Two holes in the hilt large enough to tether with paracord for a makeshift spear if need be.
  • Retailing at $135, it will not break a young tactical officer’s budget.
  • Sturdy enough to break a glass window withstand being driven through a car hood and still retain its tip.
  • Well fitted and comfortable grip scales angled for a nature slash and stab motion.
  • Surprisingly sharp right out of the box, unlike most production knives on the market.
  • Despite being used in and around salt water, mud and sand for 5 months without being cleaned other than wiped off by a rag, it shows no signs of rust or wear.

Cons

  • Unidirectional Sheath is not left handed or weak hand friendly.
  • No option for a belt clip
  • No color options
  • A bit too small to be a full size combat knife

     Overall, I will say I like this knife for what it is and enjoyed my experience with it. With its fast handling blade and very comfortable grip, it currently resides as the fix blade of choice for my instructor belt when teaching firearms classes. I feel like this knife is an honest offering by Blackhawk and not an afterthought to cover the knife market in its catalogue. If you’re looking for a purpose built knife on a budget, the Gideon Tanto by Blackhawk is a sound choice.

Second Call Defense

Lil Reads tonight!

18-year-old armed robber Tamon J. Stapleton stormed into the the Breadbox and forced the female employee behind the counter and towards the register at 2:30 AM with a gun to her head. One of the employee’s male friends happened to be in his car in front of the Breadbox. He retrieved his legally-owned pistol from his car and ran into the store, firing a single shot that struck Stapleton in the head, killing him.

Now the mother is demanding homicide charges be pressed against the good guy.

“If the store clerk would have killed him I would have felt different,” said Stapleton. “But because that man came into the store and killed him as he watched this robbery go on…he was not in danger. He could have dialed 911 and then went in to the store. But he didn’t, he just automatically went into the store and shot my son in the head.”

where we talk about stuff that we have, want and need!

Tonight we are going to do We Like Shooting Theater sponsored by Manticore Arms. Where we re-enact movie scenes, our style. Tonight we will perform a scene from GONE WITH THE WIND.  Scarlett: will be played by Savage, Ashley will be played by Shawn, and Rhett will be played by Lil.

Scarlett: Oh, Ashley, Ashley… …l love you.

Ashley:  Scarlett!

Scarlett: I love you, I do!

Ashley: Well, isn’t it enough that you’ve gathered every other man’s heart today? You’ve always had mine. You cut your teeth on it.

Scarlett: Oh, don’t tease me now. Have I your heart, my darling? I love you, I love you.

Ashley:You mustn’t say such things. You’ll hate me for hearing them.

Scarlett: Oh, I could never hate you, and I know you must care about me. Oh, you do care, don’t you?

Ashley: Yes… …l care. Oh, can’t we go away and forget we ever said these things?

Scarlett: But how can we do that? Don’t you want to marry me?

Ashley: I’m going to marry Melanie.

Scarlett: But you can’t. Not if you care for me.

Ashley: Oh, my dear, why must you make me say things that will hurt you? How can I make you understand? You’re so young and unthinking. You don’t know what marriage means.

Scarlett: I know I love you, and I want to be your wife. You don’t love Melanie.

Ashley: She’s like me, Scarlett. She’s part of my blood and we understand each other.

Scarlett: But you love me.

Ashley: How could I help loving you? You have all the passion for life that I lack. That kind of love isn’t enough for a successful marriage… …for two people as different as we are.

Scarlett: Well, why don’t you say it, you coward? You’re afraid to marry me. You’d rather live with that fool who can’t speak except… …to say “yes” and “no” and raise a passel of mealy-mouthed brats just like her.

Ashley: You mustn’t say such things about Melanie.

Scarlett: Who are you to tell me I mustn’t? You led me on, you made me believe you wanted to marry me.

Ashley: Now, Scarlett, be fair. I never, at any time–

Scarlett: You did, it’s true you did! I’ll hate you till I die! I can’t think of anything bad enough to call you.

<<Sound of loud breaking glass>>

Rhett:  Has the war started?

Scarlett: Sir, you should have made your presence known.

Rhett:  In the middle of that beautiful love scene? That wouldn’t have been very tactful,

would it? But don’t worry, your secret is safe with me.

Scarlett: Sir, you are no gentleman!

Rhett:  And you, Miss, are no lady. Don’t think I hold that against you. Ladies have never held any charm for me.

Scarlett: First you take a low, common advantage of me, then you insult me.

Rhett: I meant it as a compliment and I hope to see more of you… …when you’re free of the spell of the elegant Mr. Wilkes. He doesn’t strike me as half good enough for a girl of your, what was it? Your “passion for living.”

Scarlett: How dare you! You aren’t fit to wipe his boots.

Rhett: And you were going to hate him for the rest of your life.

Last week we talked about Claude Werner, who asks us what we are willing to kill for? What we’re willing to die for?  What we are willing to change our life for? I want to ask you this, if you are willing to defend your family from predators, danger, and put yourself in harms way, why would you leave yourself and them to financial ruin. You should want to protect them and yourself on all fronts. Litigation and court cost can reach 10’s of thousands of dollars if not more. We implore you to go the extra step and protect yourself.

where we talk about stuff that we have, want and need!

Tonight we are going to do We Like Shooting Theater sponsored by Manticore Arms. Where we re-enact movie scenes, our style. Tonight we will perform a scene from A FEW GOOD MEN.  Col. Jessep will be played by Jeremy, Kaffee will be played by Aaron, Judge Randolph will be played by Shawn.  Savage will the amazing supporting role of Capt. Jack Ross

Kaffee:I have just one more question before I call Airmen O’Malley and Rodriguez.  If you gave an order that Santiago wasn’t to be touched… and your orders are always followed… then why would Santiago be in danger? Why would it be necessary to transfer him off the base?

Col. Jessep: Santiago was a substandard Marine. He was being transferred–

Kaffee: – That’s not what you said!  You said he was being transferred because he was in grave danger. I said, ”Grave danger?”   You said, ”Is there any other kind?”

Col. Jessep: I recall what I said.

Kaffee:  I can have it read back to you.

Col. Jessep: I know what I said! I don’t have to have it read back to me.

Kaffee: Then why the two orders? Colonel?

Col. Jessep: Sometimes men take matters into their own hands.

Kaffee: You’ve made it clear that your men never take matters into their own hands.

Your men follow orders, or people die. So Santiago shouldn’t have been in danger, should he?

Col. Jessep: – You snotty little bastard. – I’d like to ask for a recess.

Kaffee: – I’d like an answer to the question.

Judge Randolph– The court will wait for an answer.

Kaffee: If Lieutenant Kendrick gave an order… that Santiago wasn’t to be touched… then why did he have to be transferred? Lieutenant Kendrick ordered the Code Red because that’s what you told him to do!

Capt. Jack Ross – Object!

Kaffee: – And then you cut these guys loose!

Judge Randolph– I’ll hold you in contempt.

Kaffee: – You doctored the logbook!

Capt. Jack Ross – Damn it, Kaffee!

Judge Randolph Consider yourself in contempt.

Kaffee: Colonel Jessup, did you order the Code Red?

Judge Randolph– You don’t have to answer that.

Col. Jessep:- I’ll answer the question.  You want answers?

Kaffee: – I think I’m entitled!

Col. Jessep: You want answers?

Kaffee: – I want the truth!

Col. Jessep:You can’t handle the truth!

Son, we live in a world

that has walls…

and those walls have to be guarded

by men with guns.

Who’s gonna do it? You?

I would rather you just said thank you

and went on your way.

Otherwise, I suggest you

pick up a weapon and stand a post.

Either way, I don’t give a damn

what you think you are entitled to!

Kaffee: Did you order the Code Red?

Col. Jessep:- I did the job–

Kaffee: – Did you order the Code Red?

Col. Jessep: You’re goddamned right I did!

More Top 10 Youtube Gun Channels

By
We Like Shooting
-

Posted By on May 24, 2015 | 0 comments

While the last Top 10 covered the best of the old and some of the new YouTube channels, this list focuses in on some other awesome folks who have grown very quickly because they are just so damn good.

  1. Hank Strange: The top spot on this list goes to a good friend of We Like Shooting; the Strangeness, Stranginator, Strangeasaurus Rekt! Is it nepotism? Maybe. Sycophancy? Most likely. Honestly, Hank and his wife, Lola, have put together a powerhouse of a YouTube channel that covers everything, everywhere, all the time when it comes to new and cool guns (especially from Kel-Tec). With his iconic mohawk and stylistic attitude and delivery, this is one of my favorite youtube channels.
  2. Forgotten Weapons: Ian and Karl are a powerhouse team who have access to some of the most rare and interesting weapons you will ever see. While channels like LifeSizePotato will specialize in some rare and expensive handguns, The Forgotten Weapons team travels to auctions all around the US, finding one of a kind guns that range from pistols to rifles and cannons. They explain the mechanics and history as well as give exciting competition demonstrations of them working in action.
  3. The Ammo Channel: This guy is the alchemist of guns. Not only does he reload and test all kinds of ammunition types against things like steel, fruit, ballistic gel, but he also has an extensive knowledge of machining. His most recent project is re-welding and re-building a belt-fed semi-auto 7.62x54r machine gun and the process has been amazing. For anyone who is a gear head, this is the channel you should be watching.
  4. EnglishShooting: I’m putting this guy in the #4 slot because someone has to throw the Brits a bone when it comes to guns and it might as well be me. Though this channel focuses on laws and shooting sports in the UK, it’s more than entertaining for us across the pond. EnglishShooting does an excellent job explaining the shooting culture in the land that gun rights forgot and he breaks down the politics to encourage new shooters in the Isles to start on their journey towards gun ownership.
  5. Mrgunsngear: MrGnG is an extremely experienced op8r and is one of the most prolific YouTube gun and gear reviewers, you certainly can’t complain about that. With 2-3 videos per week, you will always have something fun to watch. He has a military background and an extensive knowledge of just about every firearm there is. He probably owns every firearm there is as well.
  6. MattV2099: Are you Operator as fuck? No, you’re not, because you’re not MattV2099. Operating operationally in operations with 600 round clipazines and abusing the hell out of his poor glock and AK’s, MattV will shove any kind of food or liquid substance into every crack and crevice of a gun and shoot it to see if it will work. His 360 no scopes are always on target, and he never holds back when giving his opinions on the awesomeness or shittiness of guns.
  7. Fireman1291: Let’s be honest, he’s only here because he complained about not being on the last list. Truthfully, Fireman does extensive qualitative review on everything NFA. From full auto’s to SBR’s/SBS’s and every silencer in existence, Fireman has hundreds of videos covering just about every NFA product you can think of. It’s very informative to watch him compare the effects of several different pistols using the same can’s and whether they are run dry or wet.
  8. CarniK Con: Hands down, flat out, the absolute funniest gun related channel on YouTube. To say his videos are legendary is an understatement of epic proportions. Bringing an amazing amount of wit and talent to his gun reviews and comparisons, Dugan Ashley and his team will have you laughing your ass off and ‘Hold an AK’ is a music video that will give you feels you can’t understand. Unfortunately, Dugan was diagnosed with MS (multiple sclerosis) and has had to end his time on YouTube due to his complications. As short lived as the channel is, the videos are timeless.
  9. Taofladermaus: Clearly, the oldest of the newish YouTube channels, Tao has some of the best slow motion gun related videos. With multiple slow motion cameras, Tao is able to capture the action from multiple angles, be it a wax shotshell, a steel dart shot shell, a roll of dimes shot shell, silly putty shot shell, or anything else that he can squeeze in a shotgun (That poor giant gummy bear…). Some of his most memorable videos involve using a propane torch to heat test tubes filled up with various liquids or playing with extremely dangerous substances, such as mercury, in a controlled environment of course.
  10. Royal Nonesuch: I think it’s well known that I am what is known as ‘bubba’ when it comes to guns, Nonesuch takes the idea of bubba, cuts it, welds it, and shoots it with reckless abandon. While this guy is just a kid, his fascination with and construction of home built shotguns of every possible kind is downright impressive. Though often flimsily constructed, and usually dangerously so, his creations are functional and always entertaining to watch.

Spartan Blades: CQB Tool

By
Eric TGL

Just outside the back gates of the US Army’s Fort Bragg, home of the fabled “Green Berets”, you will find the sleepy little North Carolina town of Southern Pines. Like every small town in America, their economy is fueled by small “Mom and Pop” stores and restaurants located off the main street running its center. Last fall, I had the opportunity to return to the Tar Heel state for business and discovered this small town was actually the home base of operations for a very well-known knife company, Spartan Blades. This veteran owned business is ran by two retired Army Special Operations snipers, who took their knowledge of war fighting to the work bench in creating some of the best knives you will ever own.

After touring their office and getting to know the staff, I was fortunate enough in the following months to try out a blade I have been admiring for close to a year now, the CQB Tool. To begin with, this isn’t your standard knife. While at first glance, this looks like a diminutive one piece dagger with a small, odd loop on the bottom, it’s actually become one of my favorite items from Spartan Blades.

CcwzRvsxsT8TKEI3h6n6j6z5SHDa6nCjxuTZ-50fJPQ,ZLr4VNzB3kMPwZF_X2-vISYQu3DLktop6d4JsixrHLc

THINK ABOUT THIS: When all hell breaks loose and the enemy is on top of you in a struggle for your life, the large combat knife still in its sheath on your hip or the .45 ACP tucked into your waist band does absolutely NO GOOD! The CQB Tool is specifically designed to be quietly tucked away behind other items out of sight with the easy to deploy loop ever at the ready to be grabbed and put to use. Its sole design purpose is for the Police Officer, soldier, or innocent civilian being attacked to get the dirt bag OFF OF YOU!! With an optional aluminum training version that is blunt tipped and unsharpened, one can train to put the tool to great use in grappling situations before transitioning to a primary weapon.

Measuring almost 7 inches overall and sporting a 2 7/8 inch double edge, this blade is a razor sharp stiletto ready to penetrate anything in its path to ensure its user’s survival in a close quarters fight. The ringed one piece construction offers a no frills, easily accessible force option that is made to be comfortably retained during a conflict. The factory applied SpartaCoat allows the Flat Dark Earth tool and it’s coyote colored kydex sheath to blend seamlessly into the rest of your gear without drawing much attention. Regardless of what knife I currently run with my training kit, I am never without a CQB Tool since testing the sample sent by Spartan Blades.

With an average cost of around $160, there are tons of other cheaper knife options on the market but none more trusted than Spartan Blades when my life depends on it. Saving money does you no good when you’re dead! Once you handle a CQB Tool for yourself, you will have to have one for yourself. Check out the CQB Tool and the rest of the great Spartan Blades at www.spartanbladesusa.com today.

Even if the shooting is found to be justified, even the fact that the shooter has not been arrested or charged, there still is an investigation, there still is a lot of stress and knowing SCD is on your side will help alleviate a lot of that while providing support that you may need.

Don’t wait until it’s too late. http://welikeshooting.com/scd

where we talk about stuff that we have, want and need!

Tonight we are going to do We Like Shooting Theater sponsored by Manticore Arms. Where we re-enact movie scenes, our style. Tonight we will perform a scene from Dirty Harry (1971).  Harry Callahan will be played by: Savage.  The criminal will be played by Aaron.

Harry: Halt! I know what you’re thinking. Did he fire six shots or only five? Well, to tell you the truth, in all this excitement, I’ve kinda lost track myself. But, being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world, and would blow your head clean off, you’ve got to ask yourself one question: ‘Do I feel lucky?’ Well, do ya punk?”

CRIMINAL: I got to know!

[Sound of an empty gun, click]

CRIMINAL: Son of a bitch!

  • A kickstarter for “A Good guy with a gun:  The arming of teachers in America”
  • This kickstarter ends this Friday, the 5th of June 2015. (about $900 still needed for this project.)
  • explores this complex and controversial topic and many of the larger social issues to which it is connected. The film focuses on Ohio, a traditional bellwether state where a growing movement to arm teachers is met with a growing opposition. The struggles and debates playing out in Ohio communities reflect conversations that are happening around the country, and illustrate the numerous forces that lead to social change.

We also have a new giveaway that is open to everyone. We are supporting C-SAEF and helping them raise money to protect children by training school staff to deal with emergencies. Once they hit their funding goal of $25,000 we are giving away a Larue Costa Edition AR-15 rifle with an Aimpoint T1, Surefire light and more valued at $3500.

It’s open to anyone, to enter, visit http://welikeshooting.com/safe

William April – April Risk Management

Claude Werner, what are you willing to kill for? What are you willing to die for?  What are you willing to change your life for?

Jack B.

You know him, you love him, the Jew
Of donuts he eats quite a few
He breaks his guns
And weighs a few tons
Air soft safety he should review

To the lower of 80 percent
Bearing a Dremel he went
With only the tip
And a bit of a slip
His rifle had a new vent
