Full Auto Weapons, RBCD Ammo and Oklahoma SB 1685.  The is the first telephone interview on The Handgun World Show.  In this episode I called up a friend of mine who want’s his name to be anonymous, but we discuss the Oklahoma SB 1685 which would join 8 other states in making firearms that are manufactured in Oklahoma exempt from Federal regulation.  There are many differing opinions on this subject.  I try to bring forth all viewpoints as I can so that there is something for everyone on this show.  We also discussed RBCD ammo and fully automatic weapons and what is an assault rifle?

If you would like to connect with other like minded gun owners, please feel free to join me and other listeners on the forum at Today’s Survival Show (another podcast of mine.)  We have an excellent forum there, click here.

Also, don’t forget to support the Handgun World Show if you can, but even if you can’t, I won’t be offended.  Thanks for listening to me talk about one of my favorite hobbies!

Take Care and Safe Shooting.

Mouseguns and pocket pistols are excellent back up guns.  In this episode I discuss how they are good back up guns but should not be used as your primary carry gun.  I define what is a mousegun, what calibers are available, what ammo to use in them and how to carry mouseguns.  I own  Kahr 380.  I’ll discuss that too.  I also answer a listener’s question about RBCD ammo.

Highlights:

  • Pro’s and Con’s of RBCD ammo.
  • The Box of Truth review of RBCD ammo.
  • The compromise of carrying a handgun.
  • What is a mousegun?
  • Stopping power of mouseguns.
  • A mousegun is better than no gun.
  • Sig P238
  • Why a mousegun should not be your primary carry gun.
  • Corbon DPX ammo review.

Thanks for listening to the Handgun World Show.

Tactical reloads and ammo selection.  A listener recently sent me an email alerting me to the fact that many experts point out that tactical reloads can take too much time, require too many fine motor skills and could actually get you killed.  After reading the articles sent to me by Michael Bane and Ralph Mroz, PoliceOne Columnist I agree.  So I’ve put together this podcast as a continuation of Episode 32.  I also throw in some of my thoughts about selecting ammunition.

Highlights:

  • Game vs. reality debate.
  • Is the tactical reload a game technique or could it be used in a real gunfight?
  • Why I like the “speed reloads” instead.
  • What is reload with retention?
  • Are civilian gunfights decided by round count?
  • Can the tactical reload cause more malfunctions?
  • IDPA, game or reality?
  • Ammo selection, bullet design, ballistics.
  • FMJ ammo and over-penetration, is it overstated?

Reliability vs. Accuracy, which is better for a defensive handgun?  I tackle that argument and do my best.  In this episode I cover some tips on how to achieve both and what to look out for.  Also, in segment 2, you will hear a little more about the gun control debate (which never seemss to end.)  Then in segment 3 I get back to the reliability vs. accuracy issue.

Highlights:

  1. Audio Clip from The Young Turks show regarding gun owners
  2. Listen to the host of The Young Turks show call gun owners morons, idiots and out of touch with reality!
  3. How ammo affects accuracy
  4. What you should NOT do to your defensive handgun
  5. How much is your life worth?
