Wanna hear the FULL Episode? Sign up for the Grad Program today! GLOCK has been in the news quite a bit recently, so we brought on somewhat of an expert in that topic: Ken Hackathorn! It's always a treat to have him join us, and when he talks, you better listen. Additionally, what the heck do we mean by "Shoot the Naked Man"? Is that a metaphor? Is that literal? Well, listen up and find out! Team Honey Badger 10th Anniversary The team discussed the 10th anniversary of Professor Paul Markel's book "Team Honey Badger," which reached number one in the parenting category on Amazon in 2015. The group then moved on to their Tech Talk segment, sponsored by EOTech, where they explored the topic of gas control in firearms, particularly for short-barreled guns. Firearm Muzzle Device Overview Professor Markel shared insights on muzzle devices that can help direct noise away from the shooter and reduce flash, mentioning an article he wrote for Shooting News Weekly on the subject. They discussed three muzzle devices: the XM177, the Barking Spider from Spikes Tactical, and the Primary Weapon Systems CQB, with the professor sharing personal experiences and photos of their effectiveness. Emergency Preparedness and Leadership Discussion The professor and Jarrad discussed the importance of having home, car, and personal medical kits, emphasizing that people should be prepared to handle emergencies without waiting for someone else. They also explored the concept of disparity of force in self-defense situations and the need for proper training.
