Shawn (reference, not reviewed): to We Like Shooting, episode 687. Tonight, we got the four amigos, your friends, your pals. Starting off with Nick Lynch from BusBuiltSystems.com. We also have Jeremy Paz-Derek from River's Edge Tactical. It's a gun range in Valley City, Ohio. Go rent a machine gun and buy some ammo and then buy a gun and then go home happy. We
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): also
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): have Savage 1R. Yeah, exactly. Build a sugar shack with your friends. We got Savage 1R. Is
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): the key to male loneliness building a sugar shack with your buddies?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): would have to defer to you for that.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): It's a pretty good time.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. It sounds like a pretty good time. Savage, when I bring in the news, my name is Shawn Herrin. I'm happy to be here with you guys tonight. Savage, how was your Halloween?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Savage (reference, not reviewed): was good. It was a lot quieter than previous Halloweens. I'm thinking either the kids in the neighborhood are growing up or
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): shit's
Savage (reference, not reviewed): just getting boring around here.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Did they egg your house like usual?
Savage (reference, not reviewed): They never have, honestly.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, well,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): what
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the fuck am I paying them for then?
Savage (reference, not reviewed): I don't know, but you're getting fucking scammed.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Wow. Dude, it's been 12 years I've been paying for that every year. You
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): got
Savage (reference, not reviewed): fucking O's, dude.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Wow.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is ridiculous. What'd you dress up as, Savage?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Whose house are they egging?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): A parent. Great question. They may just be taking the eggs and eating them, which I'm going to be pissed
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): because
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I bought those six months ago so they would be nice and rotten.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): People are pretty desperate over here. It's the meth capital of the world, man. What are going to do?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. How much meth do you have?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Enough.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): By
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): whose standards? Yeah. Because like Jeremy's version of Enough is much different than Nick's version of Enough.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Let's see. I've got how many things? One, two, three, four, five of 54 milligrams. Whatever that is. Five times 54 milligrams.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): This motherfucker over here counting his meth live on the show?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): No
Nick (reference, not reviewed): comment.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): You asked. Okay. Well.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'd
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): just like to remind everyone who's listening and any federal or state law enforcement that this is an entertainment show and we play characters on this show. Except Savage.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Hey,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): some of us have
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): a prescription, motherfucker.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Hold up.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): got a prescription for meth?
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, methylphenidate.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, that's not what I was talking about. Oh.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Oh. You mean I could have had a prescription this whole time?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Right. I've been buying it illegally for 25 years. Stupid. Jeremy, speaking of medicine,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): goat
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): update, please.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Oh, goat died. Fuck. How? Yeah. Poncho, he got sick and died. don't know. Fucking animals die, dude. Is Lefty still around? Lefty is still around. That's good.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Wait,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): did
Savage (reference, not reviewed): you name them Poncho and Lefty? Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Dude,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): that's fucking awesome.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): not how it's supposed to go, though. Lefty's supposed to die, and Poncho goes and gets stuck in fucking Cleveland.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Cleveland's
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): cold. That's dark. Poncho was abandoned.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, that
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): was
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): a
Savage (reference, not reviewed): great fucking
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): song.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, so we had two LaMancho goats, Poncho and Lefty. Well, I still have four goats, but yeah. Poncho got sick. I don't know what exactly he had, but... I think he had coccidia.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Well, we know how he
Nick (reference, not reviewed): died.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was just getting ready to say, hey, guys, did you guys know that goats die after sex? Well, Jeremy's did. They got coccidia.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): There is a disease called coccidia. You have to give him a drug called Corrid. I gave him that. Well, I gave him a bunch of stuff just trying to pin it down. And then I think he got pneumonia and then he died. But so he's going to get buried.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): He
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): didn't. Tastes like anything because he was fucking skin and bones when he died. Oh, that sucks.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that's
Savage (reference, not reviewed): the
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): worst.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, you don't
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): usually
Nick (reference, not reviewed): want to eat the sick ones.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): he died. I'll have to get another goat.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): So I have two males and two females right now. Both males don't have any testicles. They're weathers, not bucks. But I think the females are in heat because they're still trying to fuck them. And I'm like, you guys can't do anything. And like the two males were fighting. And I'm like, what are you idiots doing? You can't do anything. Stop.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Let
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): them enjoy their life. Goddamn.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): And the one was like standing. And I was like, what
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): fuck are you going to do about it? they're fighting. And I'm like, you assholes.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): It's funny. It's not funny that the goat died. But it's funny that the eunuchs are trying to fuck still.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): One of my favorite quotes that I ever read about farming was, farming teaches you to be completely responsible and utterly powerless at the same time.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh, that's very true.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): It is. Yeah, and you're like, fuck you, dude. Dick. I didn't need that today.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Because, like, I've,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): know, I've sit there and tried to bottle feed a lamb or bottle feed a calf. Or bottle feed a calf or a piglet or a lamb or something like that. And, you know, sometimes they just fucking die. Yeah. Somebody's like, did you call the vet? I'm like, it's a $50 goat. You know how much a vet bill would it cost? More than a new goat. Like, I'm sorry he died and I did what I could. But, like, I'm not going to put two grand into a goat that I paid 50 bucks for.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): That's Clarkson money right there.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Like, I don't have that.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): For
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): a goat that I'm never going to sell and it's never going to make me money. It's entire job is literally just keep the woods clean.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Right.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): But Lenny, fuck.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Lenny DW, it's because you tried to bottle feed him with your wiener.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): mean,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): not going to say that.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, let's go ahead and get into the show. That's like, it's really sad. Sorry to hear that.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think it's because in my mind now, every goat is prepatente. You know what I mean? Like, so every goat now has a special like place in my heart.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Exactly. Fuck.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): No, wait till you have like an uncut male goat. Just fuck your day up. And you'll be like, fuck these things.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, dude. I know they can be a pain in the ass.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): no. Like a buck. In the hip. If you got it. Yeah. Fuck the eye. Fucking break your leg. Knee. Yeah. Eric's bad enough. Eric's a fucking dickhead. The one goat, Eric. Yeah. The one that was jumping on
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Aaron's car.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Good goat. Aaron's, Aaron, Aaron, Aaron. Eric is already a fucking asshole. If he was uncut, as it were, it would be ten times worse. He would just be an aggressive. He would be an aggressive asshole all the time, not just when he's in a mood.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Damn. Zester said Eric sounds like a top.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): and the males that still have their balls, they piss all over themselves to like
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): let
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): the ladies know. Yeah, that's what I do. They like piss up their bellies and down their legs. Yeah. And they fucking stink. People are like, goat smell. And I'm like, yeah, because you have a buck.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Right. Motherfuckers is like pissing all over everything, including himself.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. It's like me in the shower.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): the shower. It's forgivable.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. 100%.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Okay.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Where was I?
Savage (reference, not reviewed): All
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): right.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): So look, Foxtrot Mike. I got one thing to talk about, but I also wanted to mention something else. First off, they have Halloween promo. It's still live right now. And there are six in stock of the ISU 9, which is their integrally suppressed 9mm upper receiver, $499. However, right now,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): they
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): added a promotion, even though these things are selling like hotcakes because that's how much they love you. You get a free RMB, which is their recoil mitigation buffer, plus a super safety recoil spring included in the package, all still for $499,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is a sale,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you would think, okay, well, the coupon code won't work. And you're right, WLS's life won't work.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you still can get an additional 5% off that by using coupon code WLS's life sale item. So keep in mind, they are out there. That is available right now as we record the show. So Monday, 8.02 PM, 11 to 2026. But
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Dooley
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was in town from the AR-15 podcast. And my step bro, I call him Nighthawk. He calls me Dragon. He was also in town over the weekend. And we had a range day. And earlier that morning, we got up and we're having some coffee. And my
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): step
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): brother, he goes,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): have
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you heard of a ranch rifle? And I was like, yeah, definitely. And he shows me one. He's like, these are so cool. So I knew we were going to the range that day. So I went and grabbed my Foxtrot Mike Ranch rifle that has the Wooks furniture and everything on it. And we took that to the range
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): we shot it. And it shot so good. I think everyone shot it that day. It was awesome. And the best part is at the end of the day, he shot the Ranch rifle for like the final time before we were going to pack everything up. And he was like, that's my favorite gun.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was like, favorite gun of the day? He's like, no, that's literally like my favorite gun of all time. And, you know, he lives in California. So, like, I believe that they can be made California legal if they are not already California legal. Just, you know, a couple
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): quick
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): modifications, I imagine, to get it to that point.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah, just like the ranch rifles are so much fun.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think everyone enjoyed shooting them. I don't recall anyone not enjoying shooting them.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): they were just an absolute blast. So, they do have them on the website. In stock right now. Just go to fm-products.com and use coupon code WLS's life or WLS's life sale item for stuff that's already on sale. And yeah, give the Ranch Rifles a look. They're a lot of fun. It's something different. It's not the same old standard AR-15 that
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): have 10 already of. I think you'll really enjoy it. So again, that's fm-products.com. Coupon code WLS's life.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Okay,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): now.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): boy. just read the chat on accident. Dusky says, or goats in the sugar shack. Tin Man says, oddly enough, I just dropped off 50 pounds of mountain goat meat at my game processor moments ago.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Hell
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah. That's cool. That's awesome. Okay. So
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'll
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): real quick talk. Dooley from the AR-15 podcast was in town. And so we hung out with a bunch of the boys, had shop beers on Friday night,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): shop
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): beers. Cooked up burgers and brats on the grill and just had a really good time. And then we all went to the range with obviously Sam from Let's Go Hunt and the AK-47
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): radio
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): podcast on the Firearms Radio Network. And our buddy Mike
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Country Boy Guns went. And my stepbrother. Man, we just had a good time. Like that was the first time I've actually just gone to the range with a bunch of homies and shot to have fun. Like none of us brought any cameras. We just like literally went and shot.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): brought a few guns that I haven't had a chance to shoot recently. And so I brought like the Chiapa Rhino. I brought one of my Midwest Industries Doubt Space Cowboy lever actions that everyone really got a kick out of.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): by the way, Jeremy, I had the Bowers Group Verse 375 on that lever action. Shooting 38 special. Like it, I think it was quieter than the 22 that I brought. It is so quiet. I brought the Volquartsen Black Mamba 22LR and suppressed. And God, we all had a lot of fun with that. I brought the Canik Prime Radiant. We had some fun with that. And then, you know, like
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was shooting everyone else's guns. Everyone else was shooting my guns. Dooley's ARs are pretty awesome as well. Which, as he said multiple times,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the host of the AR-15 podcast. If my guns aren't dialed in, then what am I doing?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Actually, Jeremy, you'd probably do it better.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I can. Yeah. Go ahead. Do it. Well, no, I don't know what you said.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I'm the host. I'm giving you your line right now. Okay. I'm the host of the AR-15 podcast. My rifles better be dialed in.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Let's see here. I'm the host. Oh, yeah. I got to go. It's hard to do that because you got to like eat the
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): words. That was Randy Macho Man Savage, by the way.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Like, oh, yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): kind of hurt.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Nick Dooley and I...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): was I supposed to say?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And I eat shit for breakfast. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): really, it really, every time I do, I
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): want
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): to make it Macho Man Randy Savage. Let me tell you something, mean Gene.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I host the AR-15 podcast and my rifles. I better be dialed in.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): No, I can't do it. I'm going to fucking laugh. I'm just going to fucking laugh.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): But dude, we just had such a good time and then went back and ended up hanging out at the shop for a bunch of hours and
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): having
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): some more beers. was, yeah, it was a good weekend. Like I haven't just gone shooting for fun in a while and that was a ton of fun. Really, really good time. But yeah,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think that's all I had there. Let me see. I covered Halloween, covered Range Day with Dooley. So now it's a gear chat. And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): would like Nick to start us off.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Why
Nick (reference, not reviewed): me? Just fucking go. Okay, I'm scrolling down.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Two out of ten duly impression talking about me. Then
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): our
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): 15 podcast said,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): often imitated, never duplicated.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): just can't do it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's how constipated.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Shut the fuck up, Savage.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You have to kind of like talk in the back of your throat. I'm Nick Dooley and I run the AR-15 podcast.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): better. You kind of got to get it back in your throat. got to talk like this. Come on, guys. I brought these. Hey, Shawn, have you ever heard of a ranch rifle?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yes, Dooley, I have.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I got one right over here. You want to see it?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): know my shit style. Then I run the AR-15 podcast. Have you ever heard of a Tijuana donkey show?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): It's almost like you have to talk on the inhale.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah, there's this dusky gal in Bangkok.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Real
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): crossway breezer, I swear. She wasn't really a gal, but that's a story for another day. Well, you know, it's only gay if you know beforehand.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Okay,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Nick. Oh, okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Nick
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Lynch.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): have talked about this a bunch, so I'm not going to get
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): too
Nick (reference, not reviewed): far into it, but the
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): bus
Nick (reference, not reviewed): built banana.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Garmin
Nick (reference, not reviewed): mount that goes on to Arca stuff like the PBP and the EBT. It's on sale now. It's on the Bus Built website.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): that's super
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): cool, Nick.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, if you're into that my name's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Nick.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): If
Nick (reference, not reviewed): you're into that sort of thing, then you can go get them.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They
Nick (reference, not reviewed): are $18. So, you know, it's able to
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): come
Nick (reference, not reviewed): in under $20. That's awesome. And I've talked about them a bunch, so
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): won't waste a bunch of time. But yeah,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): they're
Nick (reference, not reviewed): there.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): say that they're available. However, I ordered one before the show tonight and my order got canceled.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yep.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): because I don't sell to pieces of shit like you.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Wow. Wow.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Huh. Okay. I did
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): not
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): see
Savage (reference, not reviewed): that
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): one
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): coming.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Much like Jeremy's goat.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well, you didn't see it coming, Savage, because you're not tall enough. You can barely see over the steering wheel. I've got a little stepladder. Do you drive on top of a book?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Do
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you have a couple of phone books tapped up in your front seat? I bet you do. I bet you got wooden blocks tied to your fucking pedals, too. I've got that little knob on the steering wheel. You are not good at this.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): The banana is awesome, Nick. I'm excited to get mine in. It's
Savage (reference, not reviewed): of the cooler designs I've seen, and it's really cool that you're the one that actually made it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): it's relevant to my needs. I use stuff like this. All the time. like, this just makes the pours bag plate even more important because it connects directly to it.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Well, thanks, guys. I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): $18. That's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): a
Nick (reference, not reviewed): great price.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah. BusBuiltSystems.com, obviously. And then go to shop and then
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): click
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): on gear and then click on banana.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Can you put right in the bussy in letters on it?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Nope.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): sure can't.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): other things that are reasonably priced. The Arken Rangefinder is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): finally
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): available. Oh, nice.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): The Target Lock TL3000.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They
Nick (reference, not reviewed): announced this at, I
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): think,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Shot Show at the beginning of the year.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): But it is finally available. If you go to their website,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Nick (reference, not reviewed): original price, apparently. It's $914.98, but
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): marked down to $749.98.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): then they always have promo codes,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which
Nick (reference, not reviewed): right now
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Nick (reference, not reviewed): can get 20% off, which I think is basically all the time. So that knocks it down to $600. So the real price is $600. That's crazy for this. So this is a weapon-mounted rangefinder.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, so you mount it on like on top of your optic or I suppose you could mount it on the fore end of a gun. It might be a little bit harder to see. And it will, oh, you sight it in with your optic and you're able to
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): shoot
Nick (reference, not reviewed): things with a laser at long distance. And then it tells you how far they are from you. And you can put in ballistic profiles so that it will give you a firing solution.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): For
Nick (reference, not reviewed): your specific load and rifle and everything. And yeah, I've watched a couple of reviews and read some stuff from people that have gotten a hold of them.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it seems to be very positive. Arkin claims 3,000 yards for the range. And that is apparently fairly accurate. A lot of people have... Like these are...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like...
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Sorry, Dooley just texted me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): by
Nick (reference, not reviewed): far the cheapest option that I'm aware of in this category. So the fact that it apparently works pretty decently is very cool.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, because to be fair, Vortex has their Impact 4000, which I have, and it's $2,300 or some shit.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): this is not a cheap thing. So it's pretty crazy that they were able to do it for this price range and have it be good, apparently. It's very small.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): pretty lightweight. Weighs seven and a half ounces. It comes with a remote switch. It's got a visible laser that's slaved to the
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): not
Nick (reference, not reviewed): visible laser. I don't know if it's IR or what they use, what rangefinders use.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Nick (reference, not reviewed): they've got a visible laser slaved to it to help you sight it in. The biggest issue that I saw in some of the reviews was the speed. Like, it's a little bit slower than the higher-end models,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): but
Nick (reference, not reviewed): still pretty usable. Yeah, I think this thing's kind of cool. I think weapon-mounted rangefinders are kind of a
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): niche
Nick (reference, not reviewed): thing, you know? Like, it's not something that everybody needs. I don't need one of these, but I think that they're really cool, and I would like to
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): get
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): one. Oh, yeah. Like, the Vortex is really cool,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): but
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): man.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is so inexpensive. I'm like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): how?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Why?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. And I mean, $600 is still a lot to drop on
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): a
Nick (reference, not reviewed): doodad. But
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): a lot cheaper than all of these. Like, this takes it from
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): one
Nick (reference, not reviewed): of those things where I'm like, oh, yeah, those are cool. I'd love to play with one sometime. To like, oh, I could actually buy one of these and slap it on a rifle.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): The
Nick (reference, not reviewed): one big use case that I could see for me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Would
Nick (reference, not reviewed): be just having a all-in-one package that's ready to go.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know, like having a rifle with a mag in it. And knowing that you could just like grab that rifle and have everything that you need to be able to make long-distance shots.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): pretty cool.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, like 2,000 yards on a tree trunk
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): is
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): their max distance. That's awesome.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, it's pretty impressive.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It connects
Nick (reference, not reviewed): to
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): your Kestrel and it'll pull in weather. Current conditions from your Kestrel.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, or you can also manually set the weather stuff, which is pretty cool.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's pretty full-featured. It's very neat.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They're
Nick (reference, not reviewed): claiming six hours of battery life, which
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): seems like
Nick (reference, not reviewed): plenty.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I mean,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): imagine that's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): six
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): hours of usage or just six hours of being on?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Well, I mean...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): doubt it's like six hours of continuous
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): lasering.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, because
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that would be like 100 years of use.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): yeah, they're pretty sweet.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the reviews are very positive so far. And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Nick (reference, not reviewed): kind of blown away by it,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): honestly.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): They have a photo here comparing the size to a credit card.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Length and width, and then the height is 1.4 inches.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's like a little taller than a quarter.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): and it's under half a pound. I swear my Vortex weighs like two pounds. 7.5 ounces.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): yeah, good job, Ark. And if you are like me, where you're like, these are cool and I'd like to play with one,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Nick (reference, not reviewed): all of a sudden
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it'd
Nick (reference, not reviewed): be in the realm of possibility. Plus, I wouldn't be shocked if these go for a lot less used.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): there might be some popping up at some point, you know.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): it looks like it has a wired remote, whereas the Vortex is a wireless remote.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): going to be honest. I think I prefer the wired remote because I'm always knocking
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): wireless off the Velcro and then accidentally leave it at the bottom of the safe.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, I was going to say I like the...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like
Nick (reference, not reviewed): wireless seems cool because you don't have to route wires on your gun or like try to manage them or anything.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But at
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the same time, like worry about pairing something or a second battery or
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): would honestly just rather deal with a cable.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Wow.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Cool. This is awesome.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): remember when they announced them, but I didn't know they were available.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): very
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): cool.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Let's see.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): The tickets for GEAR. And that is, GEAR is a thing that they're doing in,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): where
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is this? Outside Amarillo, Texas, May 21st through 23rd. And GEAR stands for the Gun Owners Empowerment and Adventure Recreation. But it's like it brings together like outdoor enthusiasts, overlanding guns and just like kind of bringing, you know, firearms and the outdoor stuff all together at one big event. I think they'll have like availability for camping and just looks like a lot of fun. I think I'm going to try to get to that this, this, this
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): coming year. That seems like it'd be a great time.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that's at gear.gunowners.org. You can go buy the tickets and I think they have some VIP packages that looked pretty cool. They're giving away a bunch of guns as well. And just, yeah, overall looks like a really, really good time. So again, that's a lot of fun. Yeah. Gear.gunowners.org. that's.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): so there's 50 VIP packages only.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that gets you the gear summit pass, VIP early access, where you get to come a day before the gates open. Some VIP trail rides with media vendors, a lever action training class
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): with
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): your new Daria firearm, which is one of those lever actions that we had talked about.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I mean, you get one with a VIP ticket. Like you get
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): lever action and then you get to take a class with it and a VIP dinner. And if that's out of the budget, then you can just get like a weekend camp pass, which is $150.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): this just seems like a really good time. So gear.gunowners.org
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): is
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): where you can find those.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): What else did I want to talk about tonight?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Zero Tech has just released their new adjustable BDC turret so you can range, dial, and shoot faster for any load. Nick, did you see this? No.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): did not. Look at that turret with some little buttons on it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's got buttons on it.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, so a number of optics makers make, they offer laser engraved caps to replace the standard cap. But you tell them your caliber, bullet weight, muzzle velocity, and other basic information, and they'll engrave a new cap for you. But that's not what this is. It's a more flexible, it's their adjustable BD-3 turret. fits on top of the existing turret caps on 13 of their scopes.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): have a zero-tech
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Thrive,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I think.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Okay,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): this is a really cool way to do this.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): totally agree. It has five adjustable impact markers
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can be adjusted without a tool for the caliber load and atmospherics that you're dealing with. Markers are positioned above the standard MOA or mill marks on your scope style, and each one can be independently adjusted and then locked down. $69.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Very, very cool idea.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I got to see which zero tech I have. I have the zero tech trace. wonder if it fits that. Hold on. Let me look.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can't tell.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): that's always been my, like I've always thought the custom turrets like that were super cool, but that's always been my problem with them.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): you're like really limiting yourself in
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): how
Nick (reference, not reviewed): you can use that setup, right?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like
Nick (reference, not reviewed): you've got to have that load, like those conditions
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): on
Nick (reference, not reviewed): that rifle. And if you ever change any of it, you're going to need a new
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): turret.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): So
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): this
Nick (reference, not reviewed): thing being like
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): changeable
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is very cool.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I totally agree. And it does fit my trace four and a half to 27.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah, I think I'm going to pick one of those up because I think it is a very cool idea
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): very relevant to my needs.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the price is right too. I mean, 70 bucks for a scope cap.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): could be a little pricey. I get it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): honestly, that's like just a good idea.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): mean, they've got like the little numbers on little rings and you just literally slip the rings on where you need them to be and then lock it all down with a cap.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay, let's see.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Let
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): me go through the chat real quick. Jeremy sounds like he's got a dick in his throat, says Dusky.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): No, that's just what Dooley sounds like.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay, so that's that. Ruger American Predator 308 hunting setup.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Let
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): me go check this one.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): meant to look and see if it had a weight. What do you guys think about hunting with 308 these days?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): mean, I imagine it works as well as it did. Those days.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): years ago, nothing has changed regarding hunting with 308 ever.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): It kills shit.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): mean,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): there
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was a couple lightweight hunting responses that people sent to AutomatedWeLikeShooting.com.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I just wanted to mention those. So
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Logan
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): from Idaho
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): said,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): after listening to the episode, I think you should look into getting a Tika T3X. Tika has an annoying cult following, but the rifles are very accurate and lightweight for the price. I hunt Western style, similar to you in Idaho, unlike Jeremy's pistol whipping deer out the back door.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I use a 6.5 Creedmoor Tika with a scythe TI can, tricer RP bipod, and a full frame, or with a full frame, outdoors Tika accessories kit.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): My
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): kid uses a 12.5 inch 6 arc built on an FM Foxtrot Mike products Gen 2 upper build kit with a folding stock adapter. This is our six and a half pound backpack rifle with scope suppressor and bipod. Yeah. Yeah. That's actually what I built was a 12 and a half inch six arc
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): weighs seven and a half pounds.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): then
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Dave
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): G says, I know the negative bias you and the cast hold towards Q, but the fix easily fits the definition of what you're looking for as well as being fairly modular.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think I read this last week, but yeah, I agree with that too.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that makes sense.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah, thanks for the responses on those. Those are both great ideas. I think I'm going to try the six arc and see how that goes. I did not make it out to hunt again last week. I tried every day and there was just either plans or I got busy working on something that was broken.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was just overall bad.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): my hunting season ends today.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): don't get a buck.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): blame Savage.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): should. Get in line.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Next
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): up, got to talk or I wanted to talk about the Spartan Pocket Pod.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): A
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): bipod that lives in your pocket.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Looks
Nick (reference, not reviewed): like it's meant to live somewhere else.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Looks like a butt plug, to be honest.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Savage (reference, not reviewed): looks like two dongs.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. Yeah. Or
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): it looks like balls outside the scrotum.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): anyway, the Spartan Precision Pocket Pod is the smallest of the lot. Certainly one of the lightest as far as bipods go.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is 0.3 pounds or 150 grams and three and a half inches tall.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): The
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): body is silicone rather than aluminum with a high grip surface that grabs whatever you put it on and it has no legs to extend or lock.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): mean, it looks pretty handy for what they're showing, which is like shooting off of a vehicle or out of a tree stand. Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Now the attachment is a magna switch. So it's like a magnetic spigot
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): attaches to any other adapters like Picatinny, Emlock, Keymod, Arca, UIT, and Blazer R8. And the standard sling swivel stud.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know what else would work really well in the situations that they're showing using this?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What? A
Nick (reference, not reviewed): little lightweight, small bag with a light fill.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): a good point.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the one from Flatline Fiber Co.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I agree, man. Oh, by the way, this costs 50 pounds, UK.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): they have
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): javelin.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you get pounded 50 times? No, I don't.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah, like, I don't know how much. Okay, 50 bucks
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): on
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): their U.S. site. It's 50 bucks. Interesting, but
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): not
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): my style.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): fine. Whatever.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Where
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the fuck?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think I accidentally closed my show notes.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): now I got to bring them back up.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Let
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): me get back so I can see where I was here.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was the Spartan Pocket Pod. I talked about gear.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Nick and I were talking before the show about the Flux Defense Redux, which is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Glock Gen 4 and Gen 5,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): mean, it's a Flux Raider-ish type thing, right?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Yeah. And I was really excited about it and I'm sure it's still going to be very cool.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Nick (reference, not reviewed): just bummed that it's for the Gen 4 and 5 because I don't have a Gen 4 or 5.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Now I did... I remembered, I was like, oh, I do have a Gen 4 or Gen 5. I don't remember which, but one of those. And my G47.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): might be pretty cool.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): $350.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): it's like, you know,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): kind of like the Raider. It's not as cool as the
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Raider, I don't
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Now,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): did they make this before? Is that because it's called the Redux?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, they had a Glock stock brace thing before.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): they discontinued it years ago.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Now they have a,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): guess, improved version.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Jeremy,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): what do you think? You want to throw a Glock in one of these bitches?
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I'd try it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): really wish somebody would come out with something that was as cool as the Flux Raider.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Because
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): all the ones I've tried just do not compare.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. No, you're 100% right.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): This is honestly a little bit more like the Strike Industries than a Flux product, I think.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Ow. I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): mean, I think the Strike Industries looks pretty cool,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): to
Nick (reference, not reviewed): be honest.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Maybe
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the Strike Industries is more like an original Flux product.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that's probably very accurate.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah. Country Boy Guns brought his Flux Raider to the range.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They're
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): fun.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They're
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): cool.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Atlas Defense introduces the CRC Compact Rail Carrier.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): would like to show you guys this. So basically, if you have a light like an X300 Turbo or... Like anything that connects to a pick rail,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): then
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): it basically has a little pick rail that you put on the light and then a pocket clip so that you can carry your weapon mounted firearm like in your pocket or just use it as like an ADC flashlight or something.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Or you could clip it to your hat.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Or
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you could clip it to your hat or a backpack or,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): know, your beard as it were.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah, it just makes your weapon-mounted guns to where you could use it for everyday carry. since some of these flashlights cost like $300 to $500, like an X300 Turbo,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think this is really cool. $20,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): really
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): interesting and cool idea.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): surprised nobody thought of it sooner. Nick, what do you think?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): agree. I think that this is pretty neat.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): And yeah, $20 is pretty reasonable.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Savage, you have any gun lights?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Not
Savage (reference, not reviewed): anything that... Well, no, I have... What do I have here? It's the... Shit,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): cloud defense. I have a cloud defense on my rifle.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, yeah, okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I don't think this would work for that, but like pistol lights, like for example, this Surefire X300 Turbo.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): have
Savage (reference, not reviewed): zero pistol lights.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): could literally put that clip on this and then use it as my EDC light.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that's cool.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That would
Savage (reference, not reviewed): be smart.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that is Atlas Defense,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Atlas
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Defense Co.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Their
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): website is atlasdefense.co.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Savage (reference, not reviewed): let me see. Are they out of stock? Are
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): they in stock? You
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): know what? I'm going to buy one.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): going to buy one right now. But I'm going to actually use the correct address this time.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Because
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I think that's important.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Estimated delivery Saturday, November 7th. So five days from now.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Make sure that you're still doing the screen share when you put your payment info in.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I already did. It's done.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Thank
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you, Shawn. Order submitted. Hopefully this one doesn't get canceled like my other order did.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, well, hopefully they don't know what a piece of shit you are.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): That will never get old.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Just like
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Jeremy's
Savage (reference, not reviewed): goat.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Wow. Way
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): to bring us all down.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I mentioned that I brought my lever action from Midwest Industry. Or my lever action all decked out in Midwest Industry. So it is a Henry. It is 357, 38 Special. Has a side loading gate. And then I truly like... Decked it out. Gun type, lever action for Henry. And so it has the Henry hand guard with the sight on it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): has the
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): lever
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): stock Henry pistol grip. I have a
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): side
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): saddle holder for shells. I have the ODG G10. Grip panels in mine. And it just looks awesome. I think everyone who shot it really, really enjoyed it. I had the Bowers Group Verse 375 on it. Literally sounded like a 22 every time you shot it. Like hitting the target and just the round going down range was louder than
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the gun.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): It just sounded so good. So if you're looking to really deck out your lever action and make it a futuristic cowboy gun. Midwest Industries is the place to do it. MidwestIndustriesInc.com and coupon code WLSLIFE will help you deck out your lever actions. And they also have all kinds of other stuff while you're there.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): really like it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): everyone else did too.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, wait a minute. I got a picture of Dooley as the combat cowboy. Photos.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Hold
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): on.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): just got to find it real quick because I'm going to show it to the live viewers and Nick will describe it to the non-live viewers.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): right. Share this tab instead. Throw this up on screen. Now, Nick Lynch, please describe what you're seeing on this picture.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I see a very handsome
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): gentleman who
Nick (reference, not reviewed): could only be named Nick because he's so handsome. He's got cowboy boots, blue jeans, what I assume is a Western shirt. I can't really tell because he's turned away from us. But that looks like it should have some perloid buttons on it.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Probably does.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): He's wearing a black cowboy hat.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): then he's got a
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): decked
Nick (reference, not reviewed): out
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): space
Nick (reference, not reviewed): gun lever action in his right hand.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): One
Nick (reference, not reviewed): of his feet is up on the leg of a target stand or a barrier.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): he is looking off away from us into the distance. So he's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): watching. I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): just noticed that it looks like he has his thumb on the glass of my MRO.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): hope he does. He's intentionally leaving a really nice thumbprint there.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): going to have to double check and see if there's any thumbprints on there.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): if so, I'm going to steal his identity.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Good.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): But, okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Now
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that I've showed you all that, do you guys know what's going to happen next?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): No.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Are
Nick (reference, not reviewed): you sure?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You're
Nick (reference, not reviewed): going to show us another picture.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): All right. It is time to rank our bangs on
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): this
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): segment of BangRank. Jeremy,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): totally forgot to send this out to the crew because I didn't do this till about six o'clock tonight. So hopefully this will do okay for you. Real quick, wanted to go over the listener recap from last week, which was the eight miles to deer camp. You know, we were like stranded. And so listeners after the fact, not live listeners, but podcast listeners.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): this was basically like
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): your
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): car breaks down. It's a zombie apocalypse.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): go into a store and they've got some guns, but everyone's picked all the good stuff. So this is what's left over.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): we're ranking from best to worst. So listeners after the fact ranked the Winchester Model 150 22LR as an S tier. So that was their absolute favorite. That's the one they want to take. B tier was the Taurus Model 85 and the NEF Single Shot 12 gauge. C tier, the Remington 788 and 243.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the Walther PPK and 32ACP. And then they ranked a D as the Ruger Single 622LR.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): there you go. I leave the votes open for a week after the show so we can let the audio listeners and the viewers after the fact vote. Now tonight, gun marketing words that need to retire.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): this is going to be like...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): We're
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): going to rank them and need to retire. S will be like, they need to go away like right fucking now. And F is like, nah, we're cool with it. We're just going to allow it. So the words that, gun marketing words that need to retire that we're going to talk about tonight are revolutionary,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): game
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): -changing, military-grade or mil-spec, professional-grade
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): for
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): serious professionals doing professional things professionally,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): mission
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): -ready,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): disruptive.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): first up,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): by the way, you can scan the QR code on your screen if you're watching live, or you can just go to welikeshooting.com slash dashboard, click on Bang Rank, and that's where you can submit your votes after the fact or just see past games. Revolutionary.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Nick,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): gun marketing words that need to retire. How do you rank revolutionary?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): These
Nick (reference, not reviewed): are all S. Revolutionary is pretty high up there. I would say A.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Really annoying because it rarely is revolutionary. Occasionally it might actually be, but that's not
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): very
Nick (reference, not reviewed): common.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. And I'm absolutely going to agree. Like when was the last time we saw something revolutionary?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): mean, actually, I think the
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): alien,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): I think is maybe one of the cooler ones.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I don't know.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think that the Foxtrot Mike ISU 9, like kind of inventing a new kind of.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh, we had the delayed blowback. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Well, it kind of, yeah. It's like its own type of thing. think that was kind of revolutionary. Before that, not much at all. So I give this... Man, hold on. I got to take a look. I'm going to play Jeremy rules tonight. So revolutionary for me is also an A. Jeremy.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I'm trying to get all these in my head before I...
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, got it pulled up on mine. I'm just trying to put them in order before I...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): okay. I think revolutionary is overused, but I think if it applied, it wouldn't be so bad.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): You know what I mean? Yeah, 100%.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I don't think it needs to retire. I just think it's overused.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Because
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): they're like, oh, it's revolutionary. You're like, bro, that's a
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): blowback
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): fucking tilt lock pistol. Like, calm down.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Right. Bro, it's a narco rail. Calm down.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, this isn't a fucking gyro jet that works.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay, that would actually be revolutionary.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Right,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Dusky in the chat said, Jeremy, stop breathing.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Actually, well,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): my
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): name's Nick. If
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): were going to do it, it would be revolutionary because I'm dually.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yes.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): He goes, you're going to just do the whole podcast in my voice. I'm like, I don't think I could. You'd die. I wouldn't be able to talk tomorrow.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Anyways, I'm going to go B. I'm going to go B. I think it can be, like I said, it's overused, but I don't think it needs to go away completely. Okay, B. Savage.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Savage (reference, not reviewed): mean, it's got to be A. I don't think it's necessarily the worst offender on here,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): but
Savage (reference, not reviewed): it's pretty fucking close.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): so that's going
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): to
Savage (reference, not reviewed): average. There's one I know that is definitely going to get my ass.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Dude, there's a couple. I'm curious to see where we go here. That averages the cast score out to an A. So next up is Game Changing Savage.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yes, that's the one. That's the fucking one. I mean, it's kind of a, honestly, I'd say it's almost a tie between that and military grade. But I'll have to go with this one. That's my S. All right.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I get it. I totally get it. Nick.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I'm going to give this one
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): an
Nick (reference, not reviewed): A as well.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Because
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's very, very overused.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Jeremy, where are you going to come in on game changing?
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, I'm going to give this S. This is just fucking annoying because the game hasn't changed in 100 years.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): forget what I was reading, but like very few things have been invented in the last hundred years.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): If
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): you really think about it, like everything that we have now, almost not everything, but like almost everything that we have now has been invented for a hundred years or more. We've made them better. We've made improvements on them. You know, microchips were just tubes and. Fucking bullshit. they only had, you know, four connectors or whatever. But, like, we've just made them a lot smaller and a lot faster and a lot more efficient. And, you know, fucking airplanes, cars, refrigerators, TVs, radios.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): We've made them all better. But nothing new. Or I should say even a spaceship is just an airplane that leaves the atmosphere.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): True.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): True.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): And ideally
Savage (reference, not reviewed): comes back.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Well. Not as fast as that last one did. Jesus, that was awful. That was horrible. Yeah. Oh, man. Anyways. Jesus. Yeah. Yeah. Fucking.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): At
Savage (reference, not reviewed): least it was fast,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): man.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. At least
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): nobody felt anything.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Anyways. like that fucking submarine, man. Yeah. It
Savage (reference, not reviewed): was so
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): fast.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): You just suddenly didn't exist anymore.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): it's like that old joke. What's the last thing that goes through a bug's mind when it hits a windshield? It's asshole. Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Did you see that pilot had blue eyes? One blew this way. Oh,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): man.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Geez, I wasn't even going to make any jokes like that for at least a week. My bad.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): But yeah, this one is just like, oh, it's good. No, the game hasn't changed in 100 years. It just hasn't. Yeah. Totally agree. This is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): my
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): ass.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You're
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): using fucking some John Browning design from 100 years ago. Like, get fucked.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, you didn't change the game. In fact, you're barely playing the game. And if you were, you would be in jail unable to collect We
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): don't
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): even know what the game is at this point.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, wait. Did you know that
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): if
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you read the actual Monopoly rules,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): people
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can collect rent when they're in jail? Yep.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): fucking stupid. House rules? No. When you're in jail, you can't collect rent. Fuck you. This is my S, so that's going to take the cast to the S.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Military
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): grade or
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): mil spec.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Jeremy.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I don't mind this one because I know what it actually means. It just means,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): well,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): mil spec is a very specific thing. Military grade is like. What the military uses. But I was in the military. You know what? You know what I would have rather had when I was in the Marine Corps? My sleeping bag back home and not the one they gave me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that's the thing. It's like military grade or mil spec. Like literally, do you think that the people marketing and saying that, do you think they actually understand what it means or they just understand what they think it means?
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): No, they fully well known that, you know.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): fully understand that mouth breathers with a family tree that doesn't fork thinks that means something.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Again,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): we're in the industry, so to speak. You know, we all have either had FFLs, worked for FFLs, or we do this or, you know, except for Savage.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): like being in the industry like we are and being the,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): let's
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): face it, above average intelligence.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. We
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): know like that this is just a marketing ploy, right?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): don't mind it so much if it means like what it's supposed to mean.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): oh, this is a mil spec buffer tube
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): because
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): that's like a designated size compared to commercial spec, right?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): And because putting a military buttstock on your Colt rifle was going to make it worse. Like
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): fucking
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): retarded, right? Fuck you, Colt. And Colt did so many dumb things they didn't have to do that just fucked over the civilian market. They can eat a dick. I'm glad they got bought out.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): it doesn't bother me. Like as a general rule, this doesn't bother me. So I'm going to give it a C.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): A
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): C, huh? Okay.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Nick, where do you come in on this one?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is my S.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh. And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): here's why. Like Jeremy touched on, military grade
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): doesn't
Nick (reference, not reviewed): really mean a whole lot.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the mil spec stuff, which I'm going to lump in with this.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Nick (reference, not reviewed): does mean something, right? It means a very specific thing. And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): there
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is stuff that's mil-spec or military-grade that's really awesome.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): there is stuff that is mil-spec or military-grade that sucks. And mil-spec gets thrown around a lot, especially in the AR world.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): there's a lot of stuff that is referred to as mil-spec or sold as mil-spec that is not mil-spec.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Like Jeremy talked about with the buffer tube, but with the parts, like we often use it as like when we use it a lot of times, what we are talking about is like these parts are compatible with a standard AR platform or whatever.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): like, you know, if you buy mil-spec parts, they're probably going to work with any normal. Quote MilSpec AR. But the truth is that a lot of stuff that is sold as MilSpec or referred to as MilSpec is not MilSpec. And a lot of it's actually shittier than MilSpec. Because MilSpec isn't just like
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Nick (reference, not reviewed): size or shape of the thing. It has to do with like the dimensions and the way that it's QC'd and the finish that's on it. And there's a lot more to it than just like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): well,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): like Jeremy said, the diameter of the buffer tube or the.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): The
Nick (reference, not reviewed): shape of the safety lever or, you know, whatever.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): yeah, there is a lot of,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): there
Nick (reference, not reviewed): are a lot of like really cheap shitty parts out there that are referred to as mil spec that are not.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. that, that
Nick (reference, not reviewed): really irks me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Totally
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): understand.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Because
Nick (reference, not reviewed): then you also have people that have an attitude about like, well, this is my rifles better than mil spec. You're like, well, actually
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): not
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): because
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's got a bunch of like bullshit on it. That's.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): those
Nick (reference, not reviewed): aren't really like particularly cheap guns.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Right.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): $671 is what the military pays for an M4A1 from FN.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): which is still not a cheap AR. And they're buying shitloads of them, and they have deals
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): worked out. When you buy, what, fucking 2.5 million of them,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): get a bit of a price break.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): As it turns
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): out,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): So, I'm not saying that like... I would be real excited to go drop like $1,000 on a basic mil-spec rifle.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): also
Nick (reference, not reviewed): like wouldn't talk as much shit about like a true mil-spec
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): rifle,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): if that makes sense.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah, it
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): does. So that was your S. This is going to be my
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): C.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): So I'm trying to play Jeremy rules where I only pick one each and I know what my B is. And I know what my F is. So I think I got to put this in C. Like ultimately, would,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): if
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I was playing,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): know, normal rules, I would try to put this probably in the A category.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): there is one other. There's three others that annoy me more than this one. So it's a C. Savage, where do you come in?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Muted. That's where.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Sorry. So military grade, 95% of the time is being used by anti-gunners to describe. Quote, unquote, assault weapons. Whereas mil spec is generally used to market for firearms parts.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Or firearms. So, I mean, this, I can't, I already picked my A, I already picked my S, so this has got to be my B. Okay. But it literally doesn't mean shit, as far as I'm concerned. It's just anti-gun propaganda bullshit.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. So that's going to average out to a cast B. Professional grade.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Savage,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): start us off on this one.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What
Savage (reference, not reviewed): do we have left after this one?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): We have professional grade, mission ready, and disruptive.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Savage (reference, not reviewed): guess this will be my...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): man. D. I guess it'll be my D. Yeah. Yeah, that'll be my D.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Nick?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Nick (reference, not reviewed): going to say C on this one because... It is meaningless,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know, like professional grade or pro grade.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You're
Nick (reference, not reviewed): not like, oh, yeah, that means that it's blah, blah, blah. However, if you're trying to differentiate, like if a company has clearly defined product lines and they have like, here's the hobbyist or consumer grade and here's the pro grade version, it can help you figure out like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): guess, why one is more expensive or like which one may better suit your needs.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I feel like professional grade when properly used can be a helpful term,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): but
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): in
Nick (reference, not reviewed): and of itself is meaningless and is often incorrectly used or applied.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, that makes sense. Jeremy.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, kind of what Nick said. I want to put this at D.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): doesn't bother me because I guess I don't see it that much, but if you're denoting between your low-end, mid-range, and high-end, you know, and that's just the word that you choose. Like, oh, this one's got a 41-40 barrel, and this one's got a 41-50 barrel, and this one has the upgraded trigger pack, and this one is, you know, very nil-spec. This one has the ambi-lower. This one has the, you know, and you're just doing that. You're like, okay, I get it. You're just saying, like, we've built
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): separate tiers of rifles within one company, and this is our... Although, professional what? Right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): there's cops running around with M&P-15s.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Well, I mean, that's actually pretty standard, I think, for a lot of law enforcement.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, you're like, this isn't, like, the best thing since sliced bread, but it's a fine, workable rifle.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Well,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it's
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): like, you know,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): an
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): M
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): &P-15. But then
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): again,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): most cops aren't professional shooters either.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Right. It's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): like an M&P 15 compared to like, you know, a PSA $350 AR. Like one is definitely probably a little bit more professional grade. This gets my F. Like it just doesn't annoy me that much. I don't know how overused it is. Like I see it pretty regularly, but
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): in
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): general, it's a descriptive term to let somebody know, you know, like what kind of effort was put into it. Not always. I think it does get misused, but this one just annoys me the least. Moves it to a D for the cast average.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Mission
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): ready.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Savage, why don't you start us off on this one?
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Some mission ready or disruptive.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Savage (reference, not reviewed): guess C.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Savage (reference, not reviewed): know, because all cheese is mission specific. So, you know, lots of guns can be mission ready, I suppose. Because they definitely have a purpose. Some mission specific.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): We're
Savage (reference, not reviewed): mission ready, whatever.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Yeah, I get it. This one's a D for me. Like, what the fuck is the mission? And if there is a specific mission,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): why
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): did I get this in your blanket bulk email?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): like, I don't know what the mission is and I'm probably not ready for it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): The
Nick (reference, not reviewed): mission is to mag dump into trash.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): then I'm very A, qualified and B, ready and C, ready to rock.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): So that's like, that's my D. Nick, how about you?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I'm going to say D too. It's like tactical or, you know, any of those. I see it and I'm like, oh, cool, whatever.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): don't
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): really
Nick (reference, not reviewed): care one way or the other.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Nick (reference, not reviewed): doesn't really tell me anything.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): don't really trust it to mean anything.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): just like a cool bro
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): buzzword
Nick (reference, not reviewed): thing, I guess.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I agree. Jeremy?
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Again, this is F. Like, I don't know what this means.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): As opposed to what? Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like, I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): don't care. Right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): like, what is the mission?
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Like, if you get,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): food. And it's regular food or mission-ready food. Does that just mean it's like packaged in a way that it's easier to take with you? Right. Or like, what does that mean with a gun? Like, oh, this one actually comes with sights. Like, you don't have to buy anything else to go do stuff with this gun. Like, I don't know what it means. Like, I don't care. It doesn't bother me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): agree. That averages the hosts out to D. And the last one, the last marketing words. Is disruptive. I fucking hate this one. I hated it when I was in the tech field. I hate it now. It's my B, but only because I've already chosen an S and an A. Savage, what do you think of disruptive? Are you ready to be disrupted?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): it's got to be my F. That's all I got left over. All right.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Doesn't annoy Savage at all. He loves this word.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): I don't have a choice. That's all I got left.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Jeremy's rules are hard sometimes. They are. Speaking of hard but fair, Nick?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I do have a choice because I'm a free man and I'm going to give this an S.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Because,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): oh my God, this is one of the most overused,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): just
Nick (reference, not reviewed): in general,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): not
Nick (reference, not reviewed): even in firearms, just
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): in
Nick (reference, not reviewed): marketing.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Agreed.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): The word disruptive pisses me off so much.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): The
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): only thing that's disruptive is this unsolicited email that you've just sent me calling your product disruptive.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): And Jeremy, finish this off.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): this is my A. A? Yeah, this is. I don't even know what the fuck this means, but it doesn't even conjure any. Like disruptive to what? My peace of mind? Yes. Like this doesn't. Like you hear mission ready, right? Like I don't give a shit, but like you hear it and you're like, oh, I'm going to fucking go do some shit. And you're like disruptive to my day. I don't like that. That's not good. That's not even good marketing. Disruptive to the industry. Well, I don't like that. That's what happened during COVID.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I couldn't get any fucking money. I couldn't get any fucking ammo. Like, I don't like disruptive. It's fucking no. I don't want to be disrupted. If something's disrupted me, I've had a bad day and I don't want that.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Well, and it's like even when something actually is game changing, it's very. Often not disruptive to the industry at all. Like it barely makes a blip. Like I can't think of a thing that was introduced that was disruptive to the industry. Maybe
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Flux Raider. That was kind of disruptive because it changed people's thinking on, you know, like chassis systems and stuff like that. I'm not saying it's like the best, coolest thing ever, but I think it was ultimately disruptive in the industry. But there's very few of those things and they're very far between.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah, that is going to average this one out to a B
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): for
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the cast. So
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that'll
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): be all of them. So let's go ahead and take a look
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): at
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): where we ended up. So game changing. Hosts, S. Live viewers, B. So pretty big disparity there. Revolutionary. Across the board, everyone gave it an A.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Let
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): move my QR code. Military grade. Across the board, Bs. Disruptive. Hosts, B. Live viewers, C. Professional grade.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think this is a result of playing by Jeremy's rules because hosts gave it a D, live viewers gave it a B.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): mission ready, the opposite of that, or no, the same as that, hosts D and live viewers B for mission ready. And yeah, but I think game changing annoys everyone, but we all kind of agreed that revolutionary is... Annoying with A's across the board. So there you have it. That is tonight's episode of
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Bang
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Rank, gun marketing words that need to retire. So
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): if
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you are listening to this after the fact,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): go
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): to welikeshooting.com slash dashboard. Click on Bang Rank and you can vote for the next seven days. And we will talk about what you guys thought next week on Bang Rank.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): All right. Now,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): speaking
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): of disruptive things.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Let's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): go ahead and talk
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): about
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Medical Gear Outfitters because
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): injuries
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): and life-threatening injuries can be very disruptive to your whole entire life.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): don't know if you guys know, but
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Medical
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Gear Outfitters now sends out
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): a
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): card, like a postcard, with every order talking about the...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Civilian
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): medical trauma course that I put up
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): because
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): we are partners on this. I put up the Civilian Medical One trauma course, which is like online trauma. Since we started sending out those cards, we've actually had several people sign up for that. And the cool thing is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): they'll
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): have that knowledge and now they just need to get the gear that they need and they'll fully understand what gear they need, why they need it. They'll have scenarios where they can practice. Applying it in situations. And additionally, just have a much better understanding of what they need, why they need it, how they should keep it, wear it, store it, all of those different things. So I recommend the civilian medical trauma kit.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I get it. It can be a little pricey. It's $176 on the website. You save 10% by using coupon code WLSSLIFE. But if that is out of your budget, just keep in mind, you can buy this like a piece at a time. You can go buy a tourniquet, this paycheck, and then the next paycheck, buy some quick clock gauze.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): then the paycheck after that, buy some...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can even get like ace bandages, but compression bandages, chest seals, space blankets. Like you can just buy it a piece at a time. You can keep it in a bag in your car. You could put it in literally a gallon freezer bag. You don't need to blow. A ton of cash. You can buy all this stuff and you can build it as you go. And I think that's a great way for a lot of people to do it. If you can just go forward to buy it right now, go do it. MedicalGearOutfitters.com. If not,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): buy
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): a piece at a time. Check it out. Use coupon code WLSSLIFE. And I think hopefully you never have to be glad you did. But if you need it, you will definitely be glad that you did.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): All right. And that's going to bring us to the time of the night where we fight.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's time for Gun Fights.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): wait, wait. I fucked this all up. First of all, Scipio said, can we take BangRank on the road? First, we need to get a bus. Next up, we're going back to gear chat because Savage1R has a thing he wants to talk about.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh, briefly. Wait, hopefully I'm not muted. Okay, no, I'm not muted. Okay, so I was scrolling through Instagram the other day, and while some deeply disturbing things came up accidentally for no reason whatsoever, I actually did find this MFMD at home. It's a 3D printed. And we talked about the suppressor a while back. Yeah, we have. It's kind of like split in two and offset.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Savage (reference, not reviewed): then it's got some geometry where it's almost kind of like a bullpup suppressor, if that makes any sense. To where the barrel of the gun is actually way up, like balls deep in the suppressor. And then the,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Savage (reference, not reviewed): don't know, the explosion kind of gets sent backwards around the sides of it. So somebody, I guess, looked at the patent and then modeled that shit, and now it's 3D printable.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): great.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Anytime you patent something, you're basically giving people instruction manuals on how to make a thing. Just keep that in mind.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. And
Savage (reference, not reviewed): they say it'll last. It says here, where was it? It will not blow up with 475 rounds of 22 FRT in less than six minutes on it. On the 9-inch 22 conversion AR, but it'll melt the inside of it. I guess, let me see here. There's a lot of overhangs, but otherwise it'll print just fine and the overhangs help make it more quiet. He says just run a screwdriver or something through it to clear out any overhang stringing and let it
Savage (reference, not reviewed): rip.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): cool. Guncat Index, by the way, is a great place to find all this stuff. And in fact, you can go to PewReport, PEW.Report and Guncat Index. All the models that post there are also posted on PewReport. So you can kind of take a quick look. But
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): this is pretty cool. I've been tracking this project for a while, actually. And yeah, three days ago, the updated 22 MFMD we have at home.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): By the way, it takes 21 hours to print that motherfucker. Like it is a thick. Theok, boy. Theok.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Other
Savage (reference, not reviewed): ones you can print in like, you know, four to six hours. This is 21. That's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): a
Savage (reference, not reviewed): lot.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): so it's supersonic 22LR, full auto rated. Even if it's made of ESUN PLA+, it will not blow up with 475 rounds of 22 FRT in less than six minutes on a 9-inch 22 conversion AR, but it will melt the inside. I've been tracking. This project for quite a while now. And like he did show that one on his X account that literally like the entire. Fire blast chamber had just melted into an amorous blob, but
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can basically still worked.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): So, yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): very, very cool one. And this is kind of the one that looks like it would be on the head of a staff and, you know, that
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): one
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): of the Guauld would be using in Stargate. It's like a cobra head or I don't know. It's just a weird looking thing. It's like a flat
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): rectangular
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): pretty, pretty bizarre.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think I might print one of these.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think this is a good idea.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Okay,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): now it's time for gunfights.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's time for gunfights.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Aw, yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Minimize Bamboo Studio real quick. Okay.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Gunfights. So,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): tonight
Nick (reference, not reviewed): we're going to do something a little bit different.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh. I'm
Nick (reference, not reviewed): going to show you guys five guns,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Nick (reference, not reviewed): then you need to guess the theme.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): However,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): there
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is no theme.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Wait.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): guys need to figure out what the theme should be. What theme connects these guns?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): whoever has the best theme that amuses me the most
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): wins.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay, so this is like Cards Against Humanity, the gunfights edition.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Sure, except you don't have cards that you have to pick from. There's no prompt, really.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, this is like XXX Mad Libs.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): XXX? So these were sent to me by our buddy Mark. And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): we
Nick (reference, not reviewed): met him
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): at Goals,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I think. Okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Goals
Nick (reference, not reviewed): or Gun Con. I think it was Goals. Anyway, he works for an outfit that does a lot of gunbroker auctions.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): he sends me cool things that they sell. And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): then
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I use them on here from time to time.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Anyway.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, yeah, that dude. Okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Got
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): right. So we guess the prices and we make up
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the theme.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yes. And I have
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): to... Is
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): this the one?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): don't know. Yeah, that's the one.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): one. Is it though?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): one right here.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh, that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): one right there. Oh, oh. Okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): just did the beginning of
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): right stuff.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh, oh,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): oh. Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): oh, oh.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know that this is not the right one. I'm going to play today, too, because I just saw that that's an option. Nice. And I want to see how it works.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh, boy.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Here we go. I'm going to be zero dollars off on all of them.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the fuck is this?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): All right. This is our first gun. This is a Steyr MG-74,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): very,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): very similar to an MG-42,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): but, what,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): 32 years older? Or newer, I mean.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): More
Nick (reference, not reviewed): recent. So this is a .308.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Comes
Nick (reference, not reviewed): with
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): green
Nick (reference, not reviewed): furniture. It has an aerial sight. Flip-up irons.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): in excellent condition.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Comes
Nick (reference, not reviewed): equipped with a bipod, a sling, and links. And it is a no-law-letter machine gun.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Holy fuck.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's fucking awesome. It had 50 bids.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): yeah, if you have ever seen an MG42,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is basically what this looks like, except it has green furniture.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): fucking
Nick (reference, not reviewed): rad.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): that aerial site is so cool.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Dude, I want to model up some aerial sites for my ARs.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Now, it's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): a no law letter, which means that only SOTs can buy it.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): 0702 to be specific.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Jeremy would be
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): more
Nick (reference, not reviewed): knowledgeable.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): you have to be a 07 FFL with a Class 2.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): For a no-law letter.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Hmm. Goddamn. 50 bids, though. So there was a war on this one.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Savage (reference, not reviewed): was a popular item.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): A
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): no-law letter can go for like a fuckton. Like, I bet this went for a fuckton.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Fuck.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is MG74308.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): God,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): dude, this is so cool.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Nick (reference, not reviewed): right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): We're
Nick (reference, not reviewed): waiting on
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): one
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): more.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Nick (reference, not reviewed): right.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): No, it's me. I haven't submitted it yet.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Shawn's taking his sweet time. All right. Now Shawn's in. All right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Nick
Nick (reference, not reviewed): said $420.69.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): For
Nick (reference, not reviewed): his theme guess, he said Jeremy is gay.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Jeremy said $12,000 hairs.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): An
Nick (reference, not reviewed): optional theme guess. Savage said $50,000.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): fucking awesome machine guns. And Shawn said $26,050. And optional theme guess.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): My
Nick (reference, not reviewed): theme guess made me laugh the most, so I'm going to say that that one deserves a point.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I'm just kidding.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Let's see. Actual final price on this auction was... $27,025. Damn it. Which means that Shawn was only $975 off. Holy fuck.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Which
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): is not that bad. That's more than I've seen M240s go for.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was thinking the same thing, but I was like, dude, 50 bids. There was people that wanted this shit.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): This is an MG74, not a 240.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, 240's cooler.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Is
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): because I can actually repair the son of a bitch.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can repair this, and if you can't, it's just a skill issue.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah. Now me and Savage are sharing each other's sandwiches.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Oh, if this was transferable, like $80,000, $90,000.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, yeah. 100%.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. That
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was rough.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): All right. Here's gun two.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Actually, this is two guns, too. This is a set of Colt Boas. One is a four and a quarter inch barrel. One is a six inch barrel.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They
Nick (reference, not reviewed): are consecutive serial numbers.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They're
Nick (reference, not reviewed): chambered in .357 mag.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They
Nick (reference, not reviewed): are
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): brand
Nick (reference, not reviewed): new in the box. It says they were only opened and handled with white gloves or with gloved hands to take the photos. As you can see, there are no cylinder rings or anything. These things haven't been monkeyed with or played with or anything. They're
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): in
Nick (reference, not reviewed): perfect condition.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): These
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): had,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): don't think that's right, one bid?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): think I messed up. Anyway, it says one bid, but I don't think that that is correct. I'm fighting the link right now.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, these are George's revolvers. Beautiful bluing
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): wood
Nick (reference, not reviewed): grips. Match set with consecutive serial numbers. get the four and a quarter and the six inch barrel, which are arguably the two coolest barrel lengths. 16 bids on this.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh, 16.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): 16
Nick (reference, not reviewed): bids. Alright.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I literally just said, I don't think that's right.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Nick spent like 90 seconds explaining that he doesn't think the bids are right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): then he said 16. was like, all right, well.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay, so 16. Like, okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): First
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): of all, these are fucking awesome. They got the medallion, the grips.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): crazy that it's consecutive serial numbers, even though they're two different
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): SKUs.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): interesting.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): And like I said, you get the cool, you get like the best two barrel lengths, right? Yeah. Like the four inches, a little more practical, but the four and a quarter, but six inches, just
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): badass. And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): they're old Colts too,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is pretty dope.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): No,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): I'm going to stick with it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): stick with it, Savage.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): One
Nick (reference, not reviewed): thing that I'm unsure about is that in the title, it says CNC layaway.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I'm not sure what. Computer numeric control has to do with this. It's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): consensual.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): It's consensual, non-consensual.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Because
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): you're about to get fucked.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Nick (reference, not reviewed): right. We were waiting on one bid.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): It's submitted.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Oh, there it is. All right.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Jeremy says 30,000 and grail guns.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Wow.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Savage
Nick (reference, not reviewed): says
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Nick (reference, not reviewed): what?
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I said, these are not pythons.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know. Savage
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): did
Nick (reference, not reviewed): exactly like Jeremy with the little version. He said 3,000.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): shit.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Guns to masturbate to while listening to Careless Whisper.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Shawn says $6,000. Excuse me, $6,016. And guns that Savage can prison carry with little effort.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yes.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): These
Nick (reference, not reviewed): sold for... $14,999.99.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Shawn was $8,983.99 off. Fucking up my average.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): That sucks because I've actually seen a pair like this go for like $27,000. No shit. Yeah. Wow. And that was years ago, so I figured that went up, but
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): hell,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): maybe it's the same pair and somebody got hosed.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Dude, can you imagine?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): On
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the topic of
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): expensive
Nick (reference, not reviewed): and deals and whatnot. He also sent me a listing to a Whitney Wolverine.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): he was like, I thought you might be interested in this.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I emailed him back and I was like, I'm interested in the same way that I'm interested in like Ferraris at this point. I know I'm never going to have one. But I'm still like, oh, hey, that's pretty cool when I see one, you know.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): they're very fun to look at.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): just admire, I guess.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): then I like. Went to the auction and looked at it. And it was just starting out.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it was at like $150 or something. And I was like, fuck it. I'll throw up it on it.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, God.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): So I put $200 on it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): placed my bid. And it was just immediately outbid by somebody's proxy bid. And I was like, yep, no. I know how this is going to go.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, that's when you get like, you're like, no, fuck that. Let me go $300.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): no, that's exactly what I need to not do.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): then suddenly. Somehow you win it at $37,000. I
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): thought
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I got that fucking Colt Trooper Mark IV.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): put like the fucking $500 minimum bid in there and nobody fucking outbid me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I was like, what? I didn't want to buy this.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Are
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): you
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): serious?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I just wanted to play the
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): game with the idea. Yeah. God damn, guys. I was like, ah, it's an $800, $900 gun all day long. And nobody fucking bid on it. And it was like, go into work on Tuesday. Congratulations on your winning bid. I'm like, what the fuck?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I've done that one. I've done the.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Place the bid while intoxicated and then get the email later and be like, what did I do?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): then I what I mostly do, though, is the just
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like
Nick (reference, not reviewed): spam really small bids and wait for one to stick.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): And usually that works out occasionally. Thankfully, it's mostly on like cigar bid and stuff where it's lower value items. Occasionally, it'll be like, I put really low bids on these 10 things, and then I win all of them, and I'm like, fuck.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): only wanted to spend like $100, but
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): have like four boxes of cigars and a couple of sample packs.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Dude, I remember one time I threw out, it was like a make an offer on this gun, or no, it was a knife. It was like a fucking Damascus knife. And I was like, oh, that's kind of cool. And it was like 200 bucks, but it was like make an offer. I was being a fucking dick and I was drunk. So I threw 50 bucks out. And then next day I get an email. Your offer was accepted. I was like, oh, fuck me. All right. I guess I bought a knife. It was a nice knife.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): actually tipped one of the guys in Africa with that knife.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): that's cool. I had it while I was there. And one of the guys kept looking at it. Let him, you know, and he was like, man, this is a beautiful knife. It is.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): he just kept like the whole fucking 10 days we were there. Like every night I just handed to him and he'd be like, man, this thing's great. And he was a really cool guy. I still talk to him on Facebook sometimes. And when we were going to leave, I was like, you know what? I'm going to let you have this knife, but I want it back. But the only way I want it back is if you come to America and see me, then I want my knife back.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): he's like, all right. He was
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I'll never come to America.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Exactly. He's like, I can't wait for this motherfucker to leave Africa.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I don't know. He's a white South African. He might get the fuck out of there before long. Oh, actually, yeah. He might come here as a goddamn refugee. Right.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Oh, man. Jeremy's like, yeah, it was Pakistani anyway.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Nah, it's one of those guys that just makes them in his garage.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): making them at night. Yeah, making them at night.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Okay, ooh.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Nick (reference, not reviewed): one is a Colt Single Action Army.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): made in 1878. It's got ivory grips, a 12-inch barrel, and
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it
Nick (reference, not reviewed): comes with a stock. And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it
Nick (reference, not reviewed): comes with this dope-ass
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): leather
Nick (reference, not reviewed): holster and belt
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it refers to as being burgundy,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is pretty rad.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's a long-ass holster to fit that long-ass 12-inch barrel.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): This one has been restored.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): this is not the original finish. It's chambered in 4440.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): first generation.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): it's sweet, man. It's got that wire stock on it or for it. They didn't have any photos of it installed.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Savage (reference, not reviewed): a classy stock, though. It is. If you're going to have a wire stock, that one is fucking legit.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): yeah, it's awesome. It's got a very nice royal blue. Whoever redid it looks like they did a decent job. Very good job. Color case hardened frame and everything. Basically what you would expect. Of course, those ivory grips look fantastic.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is a pretty sweet
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): setup. This
Nick (reference, not reviewed): one had 25 bids.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): And yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): That is a burgundy belt and holster.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): you know what?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Nick (reference, not reviewed): into it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Jeremy
Nick (reference, not reviewed): said 5,000 guns Wyatt Earp would love. Savage says 25,000 rare guns.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Shawn
Nick (reference, not reviewed): says $5,025. And correction, guns that Savage has prison carried with little effort with brace attached.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Woo.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I can tell you that
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Nick (reference, not reviewed): person who was closest
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): was
Nick (reference, not reviewed): $8,000 off. Wow.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Really?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yep. This sold for $13,025.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Which
Nick (reference, not reviewed): means that Shawn was the closest. Fuck
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): you. God damn it. I thought Savage bid like $12,000.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): No,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): $25,000. Oh, well.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): clicked the wrong
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): reveal
Nick (reference, not reviewed): button. Okay.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): There we go.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Why
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): are you fucking buddy fucking me, Jeremy?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Okay.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I just got to say so far, that's two that I've won being $8,000 off. Like my whole season's fucking average is gone after tonight.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Did I not do the reveal on the...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): don't think so.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Boas? Why is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): showing that?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): apparently if I click the reveal button on a different item, it just shows what item is pulled up.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh, crap. I can't bid.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What
Savage (reference, not reviewed): the heck?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What's
Savage (reference, not reviewed): going on?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): There we go.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): There
Nick (reference, not reviewed): we go. Okay. It wasn't showing Shawn's win because I forgot to click the reveal button.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, nice. Okay.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): And then when I clicked the reveal button
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): on
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the item I wanted it to show, it showed on the item I didn't want it to show yet.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Nick (reference, not reviewed): right. We're back.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Okay.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): We're back. We're
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): back.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Sorry about that. Hopefully you guys didn't see the... Oh yeah, everybody's putting it in the comments. Oh, and it's still showing.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): can't place a bid.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): because I already revealed it, Savage.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh, I didn't see it. I literally
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): didn't
Nick (reference, not reviewed): see it. Yeah, motherfucker.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Are
Nick (reference, not reviewed): you not listening?
Savage (reference, not reviewed): I am, but I'm not at the same time.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Like you've heard none of the dialogue.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Okay. No, because
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): wasn't
Savage (reference, not reviewed): looking on the same screen. I'm looking on the screen we're supposed to be looking at, not the live screen.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, I literally just explained what was going on.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Nick (reference, not reviewed): right. Well, at this point, we're just going to continue on. Shawn has three out of the five. This is a Winchester Model 1894. It's a really cool 15-inch 32 special.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Pretty
Nick (reference, not reviewed): badass lever gun. sold for $10,499. It had more than one bid. Savage. But I am not going to bother pulling up the link to go look because I
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): already
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): revealed the price. My bid is $10,499.99. That's funny, but
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Nick, just go ahead and take a look at my theme.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can't type that. Oh, because my theme is $10,499
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): .99.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Nick (reference, not reviewed): right. Fucking faulty ass bullshit code.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, it's definitely the code's fault, Nick.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, well, why is it that when I clicked reveal on the Colt Single Action Army, it instead revealed the Winchester Model 1894?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): That's a great question that I don't know the answer to.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): All right. Here's the last gun. This is a Remington 10 millionth 870 commemorative 12 gauge with a 28-inch barrel. Ten of these were made. It was like seven or eight of them were given to executives at Remington. This one was, I think, the COOs.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): that's cool. Personal, from his personal collection.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Nick (reference, not reviewed): one had 68 bids. It was one away from perfection.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): this thing is pretty gorgeous. It's got
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): highly
Nick (reference, not reviewed): figured
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): walnut
Nick (reference, not reviewed): furniture.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Very
Nick (reference, not reviewed): beautiful. It's got a really nice blue job on it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): got a bunch of engraving.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, blue jab.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): got a bunch of engraving.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): when you get head from a Smurf.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I blew
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): my
Savage (reference, not reviewed): spell. The only
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): female
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Smurf.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): got some tasteful gold inlay
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): with
Nick (reference, not reviewed): kind of a...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): don't think that's quite like Art Deco,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): but
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I'm not sure exactly what you would call that engraving style, but it's very
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like...
Nick (reference, not reviewed): 30s, 40s.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): actually pretty cool as far as commemorative stuff goes. It looks
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): pretty
Nick (reference, not reviewed): cool. It does.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They
Nick (reference, not reviewed): did a good job on that one.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): 68 bids.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I said, one away from perfection.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Dusty Econ in the chat says, and how much does it cost?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): So do you suppose that the people bidding for this or the other executives like, hey, what the fuck is this guy doing?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, right.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): It's not a good sign when your CFO is trying to get fucking money.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, I mean, to be fair, I
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): think
Nick (reference, not reviewed): this was made quite a while ago. I don't think Remington is.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Nick (reference, not reviewed): says 2009 on it.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, yeah. That's a good point.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): All
Nick (reference, not reviewed): right. All of the bids are in.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Jeremy says $10,000. Guns you'll never see for sale again. Savage says $12,000. Guns over $10,000.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Shawn says $9,068. Holy fuck, this episode is retarded element. Oh,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): oh,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): oh,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): oh.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know, Savage, you would have been right, but this is... This one sold for $8,700.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh, son of a bitch.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): means that Shawn was only $368.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Fuck
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you, undefeated bitches.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Savage
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): brain twin.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Nick (reference, not reviewed): going to give the theme point to Shawn as well for the guns Savage could easily carry out. Oh,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): come on. The fix is in. Yeah. I'm calling bullshit.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Okay, well, none of yours were funny, Jeremy.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): know, here's the thing, Savage.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Wyatt Earp would love all of these guns.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, that's not funny
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): or
Nick (reference, not reviewed): amusing.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): We
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): didn't say it had to be funny.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I did. I specifically said the one that amuses me the most, or that is the funniest.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I definitely think that Savage could put a Steyr MG74 in his butt crack.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): With the wire stock, right?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Well, that was the 12-inch revolver. Yeah,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): That's Steyr, though.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): So, yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Nick (reference, not reviewed): let me just finalize the game, which will probably reveal all the
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): auctions
Nick (reference, not reviewed): for the next two weeks worth of shows.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Holy shit.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yep, so Shawn swept the game tonight. He had four out of the four items
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): plus
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the theme.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What
Nick (reference, not reviewed): is the season?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): a good question that I don't remember the answer to.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): this year is the season.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): ends at the end of the year.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): don't know why it says one season.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): don't know what that means.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): so. Shawn's got 29 points.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, Nick, means that I got one point. I got five points for the night, but that counts as one point for the season plus the theme point.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Oh, I see. Okay.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): So you're at 29 points. Jeremy is at 26 points. Savage has 21 points. And I have three.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Well, Nick, I'm sorry that you couldn't take the win tonight.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): mean, I easily could have. had all of the answers right in front of me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): thought you were going to when you said you were playing,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): but... No,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I mostly just wanted to see how it worked. I haven't really... I think I saw what it looked like from your guys' side when you first set this up.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): so
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): hope that you guys enjoyed tonight. I enjoyed you guys coming up with the themes.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): If
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Savage or Jeremy want to angrily rant at Shawn about his bullshit theme.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Savage. What do you have to say, Savage?
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Balls.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): wait, let me see. Let me go take a look at the chat.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Okay,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): so Plow Guy Dave running the listener gunfights. Scipio. Got two tonight. Lenny DW won and Vince won, which makes Scipio the winner tonight. Congrats. WeLikeShooting.com slash dashboard. can check on listener leaderboard and see how that's going. And yeah, sorry, Nick.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Why?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Why are you sorry?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Just
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): because
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I interrupted you so I could talk about the chat.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Oh, I don't care. So for the season missed tally,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm
Nick (reference, not reviewed): an average of... $26,000 off.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Shawn's average is $1,600. Jeremy's is $2,200.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Wait,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): did I say Savage's was $1,600? Shawn's is $1,600. Savage's is $2,400 off. But for tonight, let's see, Shawn was $4,000, $4,500 off. Jeremy was $9,800 off. Average. $12,000 off, yeah, on average.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was some wild ass guessing on that one.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Nick (reference, not reviewed): good. Good job, guys.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Awesome. Well,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): thank
Nick (reference, not reviewed): you, Nick. That a lot of fun.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was my favorite episode of Gun Fights ever, actually.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Was it? Yeah. Because I showed you guys the answer on the one.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Because I literally won every question and the theme. I don't know what to say. was just, you know, really skilled play tonight. And I really put my heart into it. And I'm glad that I could take away the win in every single one of them tonight.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I'm glad that you guys enjoyed the theme so much. And it definitely doesn't have anything to do with being sick and tired and not being able to come up with anything.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Or
Savage (reference, not reviewed): favoritism. Shut the fuck up, Savage. Nepotism.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Okay.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Where do we stand here? Let's talk about stuff and things.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Stuff
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): and things.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Do
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you suppose that they named their company because of The Walking Dead? Wasn't that the meme, stuff and things?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): I don't know. I don't
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): think it's because it's like, hey,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): what
Nick (reference, not reviewed): do you do? It's like, I work for a company that makes some stuff. What do they make?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): know, stuff, things.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): that literally is kind of what they make. If you have
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): FRTs
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): or FRSs and you're an enthusiast and you just enjoy shooting. Really, really, really, really, really incredibly fast.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): goes through a lot of ammo.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): what you can do is you can get their Carl, which is their cam adjuster, cam adjustable rate limiter. And that will,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): they
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): have several different versions. You can get the two round, the three round first style and the six round. And, you know, so instead of just dropping your whole mag, you
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): controlled
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): suppressive fire.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Nick (reference, not reviewed): think they're actually very fun.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Nick (reference, not reviewed): can definitely still drop,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): dump
Nick (reference, not reviewed): the whole mag.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, 100%. And you can do it fast. But
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think that three round burst like this, where, you know, every time you...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Pull
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the trigger and hold it back. It does the forced reset
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): stops at three. And then if you do it again, it doesn't, you know, let's say you hold it and it only fires one or
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): two. On
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the actual three round burst stuff, when you let it go and you pull it again, it'll finish that one. And then you have to do it again to continue the next three. Whereas this one doesn't do that at all. You can like pull the trigger, fire once. You can pull the trigger and then the trigger moves twice to distinct actions of the trigger. And, you know, it'll do twice. Or you can just hold it back in three distinct actions of the trigger. It'll do a three round burst,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): freaking
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): ideal. Better than the original three round burst, in my opinion. And the cool thing is that this one is three separate actions of the trigger. 100% legal. And if you have FRS, it's just a great way to actually really add some effectiveness to it overall.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They've
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): also got
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): their, what
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is this? This is the Behind the Gun
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): from
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): August 13th where they were talking about
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): ST579, which is another, honestly, they just make like some really crazy stuff
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is so much fun.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Do
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): you guys remember the Helical Magazine product that they put out a while back?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): yeah. Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): The Stizon. That was amazing. They've got the caulk stalk
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): right
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): now, which
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): thing,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): just hit my tooth on my microphone, but I'm okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): thing is actually fun. So it's a PDW style stock. It's about 150 bucks to rip it out. And it's actually surprisingly comfortable. It has not to this point ripped my beard hair, which is a very important feature in my opinion. And it's got the two rods on either side of the receiver, fits receivers up to, I think, What did we say? Like 1.7 inches in width. So pretty wide. Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): just like functions really well. Super clever. And if you're looking for a PDW style stock
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): that
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): doesn't break the bank because they're normally expensive as hell, the caulk stock is actually a really, really good option. They've got the ST50 bar control group that you could put on your Kel-Tec P50 if you wanted to. Just like all kinds of stuff. And they keep putting out new stuff and they keep
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): literally
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): just like...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Making
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): up. They've got the C96 broom handle Mauser style grip for your AR. That's kind of funny. That's 25 bucks.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): they've got a lot of different stuff. So go check them out. StinkUSA, S-T-I-N-C-U-S-A.com and coupon code WLS is life. We'll save you some money. And yeah, just keep an eye out
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): and
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): go check out their website and see what kind of nonsense you can get up to over there.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is time to go ballistic with Savage Warner.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Woo!
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. So Halloween was not very eventful for my family, but somebody had an eventful Halloween over in Baltimore, Maryland, or just in Maryland in general. So three men picked the wrong driveway on Halloween night when they allegedly threatened an armed Maryland resident who drew his handgun, open fired, killing one and wounding the other two. Nice. Nice. Shooting occurred Saturday, October 31st, around
Savage (reference, not reviewed): 10.40 p.m. According to Baltimore County Police, resident was sitting in his driveway when three men wearing masks approached and threatened him. At least one of the men was armed with a handgun,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): but
Savage (reference, not reviewed): so was the intended target. The resident of Zone Farm fired at the trio, sending all three running from the property. Resident immediately called 911 to report the confrontation. Good job. When the officers arrived, they searched the surrounding neighborhood, discovered one of the men dead a short distance from the home. Police identified the deceased as 20-year-old Amon Walker. The other two men, both adults, were later located after arriving at local hospitals seeking treatment for gunshot wounds.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): You know what?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Savage (reference, not reviewed): think it's a pretty heartwarming story all the way around.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): do, too. Like, this is kind of a crazy thing. It's fucking Halloween, bro.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Of
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): course, people with masks are walking up and a lot of them probably have fake firearms. But this dude was able to recognize the threat, confirm the threat.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): then one of the hardest things to do is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): draw
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): on a drawn gun.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): he did that too and was able to engage all three. So killed one,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): wounded.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): In
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): the worst scenario possible. And good on you, man. Yeah.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Those guys found lead in their Halloween candy.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Exactly.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is like a best case scenario. This is fucking great.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): know. I'm happy. I mean, like, obviously, unfortunately, the guy had to, you know, do that. But the best possible outcome for him. So I feel really great. Good job. Second amendment to the rescue one more time. Despite all of Maryland's. Gun control laws.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. I mean, this dude needs second call defense. I'm going to say that right now. Because I bet he gets charges thrown at him.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Because,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I mean, Baltimore, dude.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Isn't it ironic, don't you think?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): I mean, this guy, minding his own business, gets attacked by three people.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): At
Savage (reference, not reviewed): least one of them is armed.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): He
Savage (reference, not reviewed): takes care of them. And, of course, they're going to punish the victim. Because that's what the state does in those cities is they punish the victims. Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Overall, great.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Speaking of somebody who wants to create more victims, Tallarico, James Tallarico in Texas. He is going for a political office over there. He wants to be part of the U.S. Senate. And he also wants to ban, quote unquote, assault rifles. So asked in September whether a federal ban on semi-anatic rifles was still on the table, U.S. candidate James Tallarico didn't hedge. Absolutely, he told Nation News Leland Vittert.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): It wasn't a slip. As a state representative, Tallarico co-authored a bill to report Texans to the sheriff for buying two guns in five days. Really? He co-authored a felony for transferring. America's most popular rifle to adults under 21. Voted three times against constitutional carry. Wrote a bill to let the state deny carry licenses at its discretion. And tried to criminalize open carry in public libraries. And this
Savage (reference, not reviewed): guy somehow has been getting voted in and wants to get voted in in Texas. Texas, come on, guys. I know a bunch of Californians have moved over there and are fucking up the state. They did it here in Washington. Don't let it happen there in Texas. And I mean, and the guy is just so ridiculous. Like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Savage (reference, not reviewed): know, I'm not into the whole, you know, religious thing. But he came out and said something like God was non-binary.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Savage (reference, not reviewed): you're just like, dude, you know,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Savage (reference, not reviewed): wouldn't do that if you were talking about Islam. You wouldn't say, oh, Muhammad was non-binary. You know,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): it's
Savage (reference, not reviewed): just this stupid pandering bullshit. It is so shallow. It is so stupid. But this is the kind of people who are running. And these are the kind of people that are getting voted in and fucking with your rights. Think about it for a minute, people. Jesus Christ.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): mean, this dude is such a freak, too, by the way. Like, here's a couple of questions that were asked to him. I don't recall the exact verbatim wording of it, but I'll give you the gist of it. One of them was, what's something you love most? His answer, without missing a beat, trans children.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Oh, God. Yeah, I remember that. Again,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): no
Savage (reference, not reviewed): such thing.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): And then someone asked him, who's your favorite drag queen? And he immediately had an answer and was like, oh, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Like,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): bro, that is a fucking, this is not a person that should be in any position except for mental institution.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Did you see the thing where his email was registered for a fucking like... Fucking pervert website shit. Oh, shit. Really? No. And that was like, it was confirmed that it was his email, but there's no way to confirm that he was the one that set it up with his email. Exactly. But
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): what are the fucking odds?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I mean, I've signed you guys up for the craziest shit with your emails.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Savage (reference, not reviewed): believe that. Yeah,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): do believe that too.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Savage (reference, not reviewed): would do something like that. fucking
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): asshole.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Tell him he's a fucking freak and literally belongs in a mental institution. He's a fucking liar. He's like suddenly in Texas eating a bunch of barbecue, even though he's a vegetarian. He's a fucking coward. yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): He's a
Savage (reference, not reviewed): moron. Yeah. He's campaigning as vegan, not vegetarian, vegan.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Vegan.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. Super
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): mentally
Savage (reference, not reviewed): ill.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): He's a little cuck baby bitch potato boy.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Speaking of somebody of the same.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): We're
Savage (reference, not reviewed): going to be talking about El Saeed, this guy in New York, I believe. Oh, sorry, Michigan, Michigan. He wants muskets, and every town wants Air 15 bands. Speaking at a town hall in Midland, Michigan, Abdul El Saeed told the crowd, I'm going to swear an oath to the... The has a Second Amendment, but we all know what that but means. The Second Amendment, just so we're all clear, because clearly everybody agrees with
Savage (reference, not reviewed): this, even the most conservative folks, they have to, or they, it says they hew this idea called originalism. God forbid you be original to what the Constitution intended. That's my commentary. And the originalism is the idea that you should interpret the Constitution in the context in which the Constitution was written. Yes, that's the entire fucking point. It goes on to say, when they promised the right to bear arms, they had muskets. So yeah, everyone should have
Savage (reference, not reviewed): equal rights to a musket.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): What
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): a fucking douchebag.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Okay. How about we just don't have Muslims in our government? How about that?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Or
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): how about we just don't have them in our country?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Savage (reference, not reviewed): think it's... Okay to be Muslim. But when you're like this, when you're like this,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): this
Savage (reference, not reviewed): is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): just
Savage (reference, not reviewed): like, it's okay to be Christian or like Hindu or whatever. Like, I don't care. But when you want to replace the law of the country with the law of your religion,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): then
Savage (reference, not reviewed): we got fucking problems.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): agree that freedom of religion is a great thing and they should be free to be Muslims in Muslim countries because Muslim beliefs are not compatible with Christian beliefs. And our culture in the United States of America. Period.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Plain
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): and simple.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): is my opinion.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That
Savage (reference, not reviewed): is your opinion. That's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): factual.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): The extremes would be very much like that. And there are a lot of extremes. I think there are some reasonable people out there of the religion. But I think that a large amount of it goes along with this mentality that they have the ability to change the. Only obey the rules of the religion and not of the country, which I don't think is.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Well, yeah, that's why it's completely incompatible. You cannot follow the laws of Islam and follow the laws of America. You cannot do it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): anybody that doesn't follow it, what you would call a not extreme Muslim, is not following Islam. So what you're saying is only apostates should be here who, by definition, aren't Muslim.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): I can go with that.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Either way, this dude's a fucking scumbag. He is a faker, just like the New York mayor dude.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): he'll say whatever he can so that he can get Sharia law and everything going here in the United States.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): You know, Everytown also chimed in with some retarded shit, but we already know it's just more of the same crap. They obviously support this guy. And Everytown and Moms Demand Action have been sounding off recently, and it's just been so fucking tone deaf. It's just the same old record over and over and over again. And it just sounds so dumb. Like, nobody can look at what they're saying and honestly believe it. Like, it's just like a cult reciting a mantra. It's just ridiculous.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): So here's kind of an interesting one. ATF Chief Counsel Robert Leiter resigns after a reform push.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Says
Savage (reference, not reviewed): here, the man who spent nearly two years dismantling Biden-era gun rules is heading back to the classroom. ATF Chief Counsel Robert Leiter has resigned, and Director Robert Cicada says he has accepted that resignation. He goes on to say that today I accepted the resignation of... The chief counsel, Leiter. Robert has been a trusted advisor and has ably led ATF's legal and policy work, strengthening the agency's operations in countless ways. We are
Savage (reference, not reviewed): grateful for his service and wish him the very best as he returns to George Mason University, which is fortunate to have him back. Best of luck, Robert. So the two Roberts said goodbye. This guy's going back to George Mason University. Apparently, he comes from the Scalia Law to the ATF. He took the job in 2025, replacing Pamela Hicks, who was placed in there by Pam Bondi,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Second Amendment scholar, which he is, lighter, clerked for Justice Clarence Thomas, and the Seventh Circuit Judge Diane Sykes. He earned his law degree at Yale and a PhD in philosophy from Georgetown, and he wrote The Individual Right to Bear Arms.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Man,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): this was a pretty good dude. This was a pretty cool dude.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I agree. This is interesting to me because there was much fanfare when he accepted the job because he is a 2A advocate,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): in
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): my opinion, and has come down in many ways on the side of the Second Amendment. And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): for
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): him to quickly
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): be
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): out already,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): have to wonder what that means. I have to wonder what's behind that. have to wonder if there's any ulterior motives or pushes. This concerns me.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, I have a raised eyebrow currently. Obviously, Cicada has been doing an okay job. Better than, I mean, obviously better than any previous ATF director.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, think he's
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): great.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, I think he's doing great.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): There's a few things that are issues, but it's good that he had some solid help like this from people who actually understand what the Second Amendment really means.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Savage (reference, not reviewed): now moving on to New Jersey's extreme risk protection order law and I guess you could call it media campaign.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): This
Savage (reference, not reviewed): is a really. Really, really long article from Bearing Arms. So I'm just going to hit on a couple points that I found extremely interesting. The first one
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): was
Savage (reference, not reviewed): based on their media campaign around the ERPOs because the campaign to advertise for these laws was $750,000.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Savage (reference, not reviewed): the contract was fulfilled by this place called Success Advertising. Company has done public relations work for the state in the past. The purchase order is dated September 26, 2025. Davenport's office corroborated that the $750,000 invoice represents all the fees associated with the 2026 campaign. And it has to do with all these different media production contracts, media placement. All these different PR
Savage (reference, not reviewed): directors and marketing directors and social media directors, yada, yada, yada. And
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): they
Savage (reference, not reviewed): played all these, you know, video and radio scripts, right? One of them was like, it says here, because of an ERPO, Jacob graduated because of an ERPO. Mary has a chance to start over because of an ERPO. Chris and his platoon buddies continue to play cards, yada, yada, yada. But the problem is,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): is
Savage (reference, not reviewed): that none of the stories are probably even remotely close to true. It says farther down here,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): the
Savage (reference, not reviewed): names used in the ERPO campaign advertisements are not intended to represent actual individuals because ERPOs involve individuals who are in crisis. The specific circumstance of those petitions are carefully protected.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Were in no way real in order to promote extreme risk protection orders.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Which I
Savage (reference, not reviewed): find pretty fucking offensive that people's tax dollars went to marketing to convince them to support these laws getting passed.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Savage (reference, not reviewed): know, and.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It
Savage (reference, not reviewed): says here, according to the National Rights Association, being red flagged under New Jersey's law means your firearms can be seized and your Second Amendment rights suspended based on one-sided allegations before you've had any chance to defend yourself. This is according to this guy, Commerfield, or Commerford. He goes on to say the law-abiding citizens. Are stigmatized, disarmed, and forced to fight in courts
Savage (reference, not reviewed): just to reclaim what was taken from them. And then we've gone over this again and again and again. That ERPOs are an end run around due process. Our entire justice system is based on due process. And these ERPOs are specifically meant to throw all of that established law aside and take the guns first. And, you know, you might get them back later, though the most likely event is that you'll never get them back.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): The
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): crazy part is that they use tax dollars to attack taxpayers.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): 100%. And even worse, New Jersey has no dedicated criminal penalty for knowingly filing a false or vindictive ERPO petition. It relies on general perjury or false swearing laws that are rarely a meaningful deterrent, leaving the process open to abuse in personal disputes. So anybody can say anything and get your guns taken, and there's no way to go back after them if it's found, which it probably usually would be that they were lying about
Savage (reference, not reviewed): it. This is an abusive law. People's tax dollars were stolen to pass the law. And basically. You know, advertising agencies and fucking 501c3s and non-governmental organizations made bank to take your money or your rights away. That's what this ultimately comes down to.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Fucking crazy, man.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yep. Yep. That's what I got. That's all my shit for the day.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): All right. That's all Savage's shit for the day.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): All right. It is time for some reviews.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): before that, I'd remind you that Blue Alpha has been keeping my pants up. For about 10 years. And they can keep your pants up too. Whether it's just a belt that you wear every single day like I do with my inner EDC belt. Or you want a belt that you can take to the range and put a gun in your holster. The Battle Belt Light is an option for that and connects directly on top of this one.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): They
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): also have dog collars and things like that on their website. So bluealphabelts.com. And definitely take a look if you're looking for something to hold your pants up. And hold your gun next to your body. Jeremy, time for the reviews.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Anonymous Coward from Wisconsin says, Shawn, talk more. Nick, for the love of God, please stop aggressively saying uh, um, uh, between every goddamn word. With Aaron gone and Savage doing savage stuff, you talk more than ever and it's flaring my autism. Jeremy, lose the baby weight. I did. Savage, weed.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Although
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I don't want to hear anybody from fucking Wisconsin telling me to lose weight.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): that's fair. Motherfuckers up there in a goddamn constant state of winter.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): know, Jeremy, your mom's done a lot of work on your genealogy and family trees and stuff like that.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): can name all eight of my great-grandparents. Who can do that?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I can after today. So I was talking to my stepbrother over the weekend. And he was talking about like, you know, he had
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): someone
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): in his family done some of their genealogy and,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): you
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): know, just like trace the stuff. And I was like, man, that's kind of cool. And I don't really have anyone in my family who's done any of that stuff. So I, over the weekend, I kicked off a bot and had to do a ton of research.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): one of the things, speaking of Wisconsin,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): is
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I have two distant cousins that are notable. One of them, Joe Junot. Was the guy who founded, he was a
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): gold
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): miner and was in the Klondike and he founded Juneau, Alaska.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Holy shit.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): The other one, Solomon Juneau, was a fur trader, founder, and the first mayor of Milwaukee.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): You
Savage (reference, not reviewed): mean a furry?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): a fur trader. He hunted furries and traded their fur.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah, like founder of Milwaukee.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): My
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): great...
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Either
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): three or four greats. I don't remember. My great, great, great or great, great, great, great grandfather was Jeremiah Hatfield.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): cool. From the Hatfields and McCoys.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, that's so funny.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Is that why you're so easy to get along with? My grandma's family came from Tennessee Valley, Appalachia. They moved there. Like I had family on the Mayflower from that line of the family. Been here for forever and a fucking day. And one of them fucked an Indian. And here we are. Yeah. My great, great, great, great, great grandmother, five greats, was the last full-blooded Indian in the family. Her name
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): was Nellie Pathfinder. Her father was Chief Dragon Canoe. Who was chief of the Wolf Clan for the Cherokee Nation before they got pushed west when they lived in this area. His father, whose name I can't fucking say,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): was
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): chief over the whole Cherokee Nation. The Wolf Clan was the Warriors. Dragon Canoe got his name because when he was a young boy, he wanted to go on a war path with the Braves. But you had to be able to pick your canoe up out of the river and carry it. And he wasn't big enough to do that. So he just like hooked that son of a bitch and started walking and dragging his canoe.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Damn.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): So he got the name Dragging Canoe. He has a longer name that's like Teknakalakalala or something like that. It's not clicks, but yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): And yeah, I have some fairly, but like three-fourths of my family, like my dad's parents and my... Mom's dad's family, they're all first generation. My grandparents are all first generation. All my great grandparents came through Elvis Island, the Croats, the Poles. It was the Welsh that came over on the Mayflower way back in the day and
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): settled
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): in the Tennessee Valley Appalachia after a while and just stayed there until my grandma left West Virginia and came to Cleveland
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): with
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): my grandfather.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): So I was able to trace my mom's maternal lineage back to my eight ex-great-grandparents.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): His name was Antoine and he got married. I forgot
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): you're fucking French.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, dude. Yeah. And I actually traced it. So he was actually, I don't have a birth date on him, but he was married because there's marriage records to Marguerite in 1687. And this is in Gironde, France. And then his son, Jacques, actually was, he immigrated to New France. Which is now known as Quebec in Canada. And he was the,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): what's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): it called? He was the basically, what is this plaque? There's a plaque in Guérin,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): France. Like the Premier or something?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): No, it said, oh yeah, he is the ancestor of all the Tifos of America.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): there's a plaque in Guérin, about him saying that he left. Gironde for New France in about 1684, got married and is the ancestor of all of that name in America. And then went on, had another son, had another son, had another son.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): eventually that led to another son, another son, and then finally my grandma.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Now
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): my dad's line, I've traced back to,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): think only
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): two
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): ex. So great, great grandparents. William T. Herrin and back to 1844. And I'm really struggling to get like further back than that on that side of the family. And that was in North Carolina, believe. Yeah. 1844, North Carolina. So trying to track that back a little bit. It gets a little hard. It's crazy that like the French records are so much better and like kept track of that stuff so much. Because it
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): was
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): an actual country.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. It's just some random fucking farmer in North Carolina.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Dude, there's some fucking crazy names because they're all Eastern European. Oh, yeah. So, like, there's a town in Pennsylvania.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): think it's Johnstown, PA. There was a huge Eastern European, Croatian, Serbian collective there.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): they worked in the mines and farmed. My great-great-great-grandfather, Bozo, B-O-Z-O, Bozo, Bojo. Uh, whose father-in-law was also named Bojo.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): hilarious. Um, he, he like founded like, uh, the Croatian club there and they still have like these festivals there. My mom goes and plays and somebody found out that like her great grand, great, great grandfather was this guy and they had like a plaque of the guy in the town who was a fucking dapper looking motherfucker. Um, big fucking like. Big chops with like the mustache. Yeah. If I can find the picture of him, he's fucking a dapper looking motherfucker.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): But even with something like my mom's parents were Myrtle Jane and Fields Miller. But everybody called him Mac. So my great grandfather is Mac Miller.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): his name was Fields. I was like, that's pretty fucking sweet. That's like an old Southern name.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): It 100% is.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): I was like, I thought about it when I had my son. was like, I don't know. Fields is a pretty good name.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): And then just call him Mack.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, I call him Mack. Mack Paws. And actually, I have a cousin named Johnny Mack.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): actually, Mackie Mack is one of my favorite foods.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. But like, you know, it's funny. Like, one of my great grandfathers was Bronco.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): B
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): -R-A-N-K-O. You've
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): told
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): us
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): about
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): that one. Yeah, he was 6'5", born in 1903. Apparently, and a fucking alcoholic. Like raging alcoholic, like a lot of Serbs were. Still are. And just a fucking huge motherfucker. And then my Polish great-grandfather was known as Big John.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): he's just like, he was like 6'2", which back in that day was like huge. And then Fields was apparently a pretty big guy. Who was like 6'6", which was pretty big for his era. And then you had Fabian. I think this shit's cool. I don't know why people don't look into it.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): It's
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): so fucking cool. I was pretty stoked every time it found a connection and was able to verify it through obituary records. On the Herrin side, was looking through Civil War rosters of troops and things like that and trying to find them. It's got some leads. Like it has a bunch of leads, but I haven't been able to actually confirm. And, you know, I'm trying to like double confirm every single connection. Nick, do you have any idea like where you guys came from? Has anyone in your family done this?
Nick (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Nick (reference, not reviewed): My granddad did.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): cool. Some stuff.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Once
Nick (reference, not reviewed): upon a time.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Nick (reference, not reviewed): pretty cool. And yeah, he found some stuff that was kind of interesting
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): to
Nick (reference, not reviewed): me anyway.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. I'm sure like this is all boring to other people, but. Savage, about you?
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Let's see. Is
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): my thing
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): on? Yeah.
Savage (reference, not reviewed): Yeah. I mean, I did it a couple of years, five, ten years back. I did one of those geology trace things.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): A
Savage (reference, not reviewed): couple of brothers came over from Ireland after a certain troubled period over there and saw a refuge here in the U.S.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Savage is the child of the IRA.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Savage (reference, not reviewed): pretty much.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Savage (reference, not reviewed): that was in either late 1800s, early 1900s. I had a lot of people from on the Polish side, French Canadian, Hernandez in there from Mexico. So yeah, just a lot of
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): stuff
Savage (reference, not reviewed): from all over the place.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. It
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): turns out that I'm just really fucking white. One of the cool things that I found was like the men in my family. I'm both the maternal and. The paternal side all like live even even back in like the fucking
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): late
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): 1800s, early 1900s,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): lived into their 80s, 90s, late 90s,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): which
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): was kind of a crazy thing because I didn't think that really happened that much back then.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Well, it did. Actually, believe it or not, if you made it to 15 years old, you had just a high likelihood of living well into your 70s, low 80s as we do now. Yeah. The reason that like the average age was so much lower was was infant mortality. There was like a 30 percent infant mortality rate, you know, 1890 before they figured out, hey, if you just wash your hands before you deliver a baby, it might live. Yeah. Before germ
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): theory or anything like that.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yeah, most death happened or a lot of death happened before the age of 15. But once you hit like 15 years old, odds are you were going to live a pretty good long life. What we would consider like a normal lifespan. It was just a lot of infant mortality. That's why like when they compare like American infant mortality to like European infant mortality, they say our infant mortality rate is so much higher than Europe's. It's not actually true because they calculate it differently. Like
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): in
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): America, if it's like stillborn or it's lost late into like the third trimester, we count that as an infant mortality. Whereas in Europe, if the baby doesn't live for a certain amount of time before it dies, then they don't count that. They just count it as like it's a different statistic. So we're trying to do apples and oranges statistics here. So, no, Europe does not actually have a lower infant mortality rate than America does. We just calculate
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): it differently.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): So that's a fun argument to get into with Europeans.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): yeah, I don't know. I think, you know, like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): know that I'm, you know, Serbian, Croatian, Polish, and Welsh, right? But because I'm part Welsh, I'm part Viking because rape. And it's true. Like, that's who the Vikings were fucking. They were right there, prime for the taken. And because I'm part Croat and Serb, Bosniak, Balkan area, I'm part Turk because rape.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Fucking
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): say it again. Because rape. Say it one more again. Rape. Got it. This is going to get
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): monetized.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): What? It
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): fucking
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): happened.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Clip that. Yeah, well. Fucking a lot of rape going on back in the day. Yeah. And that's why they have a term called rape and pillage. Vlad did nothing wrong.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): He gives impaler.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Right.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Well, you know, that's how I feel about immigrants. Like there is another solution.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Oh,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): my God. I meant rape. Right.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): mean, getting a pole shoved up your ass is kind of like that. Well, yeah, yeah. I will say. Just remember deportation is the moderate option.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): will say that I fully derailed us. But second review.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Oh. Yeah. Anyways, check out your genealogy. You know, surprised me when people just aren't interested in it. And I'm like, how are you not?
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Well,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): and it's crazy now. Okay. So I put this assignment on my GrokBot and, you know, I've validated and verified every single link and two sources for every single one that I've actually added to the tree.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): But
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I mean, ultimately, like going back and forth, I maybe like it has taken about 24 hours. To get it
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): to
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): a good usable version. But this would have taken like 24 months in the past.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): My mom has done a lot of work on like Ancestry.com. Like a bunch. And like finding like Ellis Island records and marriage records. I mean, she did that for like years and compiled a pretty good fucking list. That's cool.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): remember my grandma had like a typed out family tree. Like it was in like a manila envelope, like that thick.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): And
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): like the
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): fucking whole, like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): like
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): it was just typed out and they were like reading through this shit and it went back like fucking 10 generations or something.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): That's
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): crazy. Finding fucking old Bibles and shit because that's kind of the only way that some people knew they were fucking born.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah. Dude,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): it recommended me to try to find family Bibles. I was like, I don't fucking have access to any of this shit. Yeah. But like, look how cool the fucking thing that it made is.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah,
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): family Bibles, believe it or not, huge fucking amount of,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): huge
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): fucking amount of
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): information
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): in those old Bibles.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Yeah.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): So
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): then
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): can like double click on any name and it'll trace the lineage to me.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yep.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): What? Six Degrees of Kevin Bacon? Anyway. Anyway. Next review. Sorry.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Yep. Review. Anonymous Coward from Kansas. Jeremy has some interesting neighbors. And then
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): there's... Oh,
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): yeah. I fucking read this. A 72-year-old fucking Walmart employee put a GPS tracker on the UPS driver's truck so that he could track her to all the different spots where she was restocking Pokemon cards. So... I mean, that's cool, I guess.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Where was this?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): In Ohio. Yeah, it is in
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): 72
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): -year-old Ohio, man. Where is this? I don't see where in Ohio.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Oh, Wayne County. Yeah,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Wayne
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): County.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): That's the county south of me.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): So, yeah. Dude, the Pokemon scalping is absolutely out of control. If you ever have a chance and you're listening, just go watch a couple of Moist Critical videos on that shit. It's crazy. Crazy. Bunch of fucking degenerate pieces of shit.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): saw some fucking Instagram reel today where a guy
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): was like,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): had
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): the whole fucking display at a Walmart.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): Yeah.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): He was like, since when did people like Pokemon again?
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Oh, bro. It's like a whole thing. There's like fights and brawls breaking out and people. It's crazy.
Jeremy (reference, not reviewed): Crazy.
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): I'm

Now picture him as Pennywise the Dancing Clown. You know, the one from Stephen King's It. This was what the horrible music you have been playing on the show sounds like. Fuck you. Keep it up.
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): Goddamn. Okay, first of all,
Unknown speaker (unknown, not reviewed): when
Shawn (reference, not reviewed): I picture Ron Jeremy as Pennywise the Clown, I just see the clown from Spawn, John Leguizamo.
