Student of the Gun Radio

Author: Student of the Gun

Being a Student of the Gun is not about being a novice or beginner. Student of the Gun represents a life's journey of education, enlightenment and the enjoyment of firearms. Each week Student of the Gun will introduce our listeners to all manner of firearms related topics be they sport, recreation or personal defense. Unlike the television format, through the magic of digital radio, we will have the opportunity to explore topics more deeply rather than just give them a quick glance. Discussions will address both that which is current news in the firearms world as well as traditions and foundational principles. Student of the Gun, a beginner once, a student for life.

We are glad to have our correspondent, Louis Caras, back from the SHOT Show to give us an update about what he saw there. During our Tech Talk from EOTech Inc. Louis will give us his take on the new EFLX CE optic having looked at a sample during SHOT. Also, Professor Paul will consider zeroing the optic on your pistol. What is the best distance to zero? We have a Coffee Corner for you from Blackout Coffee. Please use promo code STUDT20 when ordering to support our show. We have more recommended reading for you. Paul's new book, Guns of the Cold War, is now available from us at SHOPSOTG.com. For our SOTG Homeroom this week, we will continue with our evolution in firearms training series. This week we will consider the acronym SPORTS and how it is applied to clearing a stoppage in your rifle. Is SPORTS the best way or does it fall short?
