Ben Branam and I empty our pockets and podcast about what’s in them! Both of us have decided to carry more tactically. So this episode is about why we carry what we carry and some product reviews too. If you like to talk about gear, guns, knives, ammo, flashlights, pens and spare magazines this is the episode for you. Thanks for downloading and listening, Bob Mayne, Handgunworld Podcast

Active shooter situations like the recent Aurora Colorado movie theater shooting and the recent shooting at the Sikh Temple in Wisconsin seem to really make people stop and think about their safety and how they plan to keep themselves safe. They almost always lead to more gun sales and more ammo sales. The main topic of this episode is a discussion of how the shooting in Colorado has changed my outlook on concealed carry, training and self defense. How has it changed you? This episode also begins with some listener voice mails. Thanks for downloading and listening. Bob Mayne, HandgunWorld Podcast

This episode does not have one single topic. A couple of listeners called in some voice mails about 1911’s and a close call with a potential bad guy. Then Ben Branam and I discussed guns we want to purchase, tactical pens, holsters and training. So between my answers to the voice mails and the interview with Ben, it turned into a mixed bag of topics. Links can be found on the GRRN forum. Thanks for listening. Bob Mayne, Handgunworld Podcast.

What will you do if you have to fight to your handgun? It seems like a lot of people train to fight with their handgun, but what if your attackers are trying to prevent you from accessing your handgun? Do you know how to handle that? In this episode I discuss that subject with a review of some training. Also, Alan from Utah, a listener sent me a pretty good voice mail about 2nd Amendment issues and a Wilderness Tactical SafePacker.

Massad Ayoob is my guest on this episode. I’m releasing this early because I have a lot of material from MAG 40 and another trainer to put out over the next couple weeks. I recently attended his MAG 40 class in Arkansas. It was awesome! I interviewed him about concealed carry for the hearing impaired, whether CCW’ers have a duty to protect others and female agressors. Also, I interviewed some fellow students from the course and Jon Hodway, one of the instructors. This episode starts with a voice mail from a listener regarding how to choose a concealed carry firearm. Thanks for downloading and listening, Bob Mayne, HandgunWorld Podcast.

Voice mails and stories from listeners just keep coming in and I really appreciate it. So this week’s topics are on lifelong shooters, training, government gun takeaways, gun safety and handling, fully automatic weapons and a special story from a listener who had a violent incident happen near his home. I’m at MAG 40 this weekend and will have a lot of excellent audio to podcast about next week. Thanks for downloading and listening, Bob Mayne, HandgunWorld Podcast

I got together with Ben Branam to discuss the risks and rewards of concealed carry. We discussed concealed carry methods, range practice, safety rules, real life self defense gunfights and more. This show is released early due to the large number of voice mails I’ve received from listeners. So I will be releasing the voice mail podcast next Monday or Tuesday. Thanks for downloading and listening, Bob Mayne, HandgunWorld Podcast.

Everyone’s concealed carry situation is different. So I decided to talk about carrying whatever gun you can get away with. This episode is primarily inspired by a thread on the GRRN forum, in my subforum. What gun is enough gun? What can you carry in your particular situation? There are advantages and disadvantages to every gun and every gun is a compromise of some sort. Do you need more than one gun? Also, I received some EXCELLENT voice mails regarding the aftermath of a self defense shooting, campus concealed carry, and slide stop levers, so I answer those as well. Thanks for downloading and listening. Bob Mayne, HandgunWorld Podcast.

Do you carry a gun in your vehicle? In some states it’s legal, yet laws differ from state to state. In some states it’s not legal. But for those of you who can carry a gun in your vehicle, you’ll find this podcast a collection of ideas you may want to try. Keep in mind, this is what works for me. Depending on what kind of vehicle you drive makes a huge difference. But there are definitely some vehicle carry methods I don’t like, so I talk about those as well. Also, this podcast includes an excellent voice mail from a listener in Sanford, Florida. Thanks for downloading and listening, Bob Mayne, HandgunWorld Podcast

A recent shooting at a college in California has sparked more controversy about whether students at universities should be able to carry concealed handguns for self defense. I think they should be allowed to. So this episode is based on an excellent article in Guns and Ammo magazine about the subject of concealed carry on campus. I will of course provide a link to that article on the GRRN forum. The first half of this episode is about listener voice mails on open carry, Kahr pistols, IDPA and Ben Branam’s international incident that almost happened.

I received 2 excellent pieces of audio from a couple of listeners. One is a pistol packing preacher and the other likes his Glock 32 and he’s a fellow Texan. I also covered some emails I’ve received and discuss some more information about defensive shotguns. Next week, get ready for a cool interview with Dr. John Meade, Tactical Medicine Instructor and author. Until then, I know you’ll enjoy this episode and many thanks to all who contributed this material. Bob Mayne, HandgunWorld Show

How to spot trouble and selecting your concealed carry ammo are the two primary topics in this episode. Ben Branam and I discussed these 2 subjects on the way home from an IDPA match about a week ago. We discussed what to look for in someone who may want to harm you and then we transitioned to the subject of ammunition selection and ballistics. I also answer some listener email.

We make sacrifices when we decide to carry a gun. It changes our lifestyle, our clothing, out situational awareness and even the places we go to. So this episode is dedicated to making the choice to carry a gun and what comes with that choice in terms of personal responsibility. I also get into the subject of what gun to carry and when. Links will be posted in the Gun Rights Radio Network forum for this episode. Thanks for downloading and listening, Bob Mayne, HandgunWorld Show
