This past weekend I shot a competition match and deliberately shot it defensively, rather than playing the game. You can do this, or play the game for the best score and omit some critical defensive shooting skills. However, learning to shoot fast and accurately, is vital in a self defense situation and you’ll get that in competition shooting.

What to look for when buying your first handgun. This episode is about what not to look for actually. It’s just my opinion of course, but it’s based on a great deal of experience of my own and others. Also, I cover voice mails about aftermath of a self defense shooting, post election gun and ammo purchases, a Beretta Cheetah and more. This episode also features an audio clip by Massad Ayoob and Tom Gresham recorded for Guns And ammo called Action Plan.
