During our SOTG Homeroom from www.SOTGU.com we pose the question; do you understand the science of sight? How does your vision work with the sights or optic on your firearm? Does color matter?

Also, for our Tech Talk from EOTech this week, Professor Paul discusses BZO or zeroing your gun. At what distance should you zero a mini-red dot? What is a practical distance to zero a .223 Remington with 3-9x scope?

Good News for gun owners! CBC Global Ammunition has announced the opening of a massive ammunition manufacturing plant right here in the good old USA, specifically Oklahoma City. More ammo being made in America is always a good thing.

Should Democrats buy guns? Such was the topic of a recent New York Time OpEd piece. We will examine the premise, the assertions by the NYT “ethicist” and then Professor Paul will chime in.

What pieces, parts, and components should be assembled when building a varmint pistol? During our Tech Talk from EOTech Inc. Paul will discuss his experience eradicating prairie pests in Wyoming and consider what is practical and impractical.

Also, we have an SOTG Homeroom for you from SOTGU. This week, the Professor will consider what goes into improvement or the development of skill with a handgun. Do you want to shoot better or just buy cool stuff?

During our Tech Talk from EOTech Inc. Professor Paul will discuss zeroing red dots and magnified optics as well as answering one of your questions on air. And, we solve the mystery of the missing battery.

For our SOTG Homeroom this week we have a New York Times article to consider. The Times has discovered that some “Professional Citizens” are training with guns, radios, and night vision. We are not sure how they feel about that.

Paul and Jarrad are back from their extended training trip to Texas, Ohio, and Tennessee. During that time they had the opportunity to conduct some low light / night shooting. What was unique and what lessons were learned. We dive in during the Tech Talk from EOTech Inc.

During our SOTG Homeroom, we had a sad story to report. Nonetheless, the lesson is an important one. You don’t get to decide when you are going to have the worst day of your life, someone else will decide that. All you can do is be prepared to deal with it.

Finally, Professor Paul wrote an article for Shooting News Weekly regarding the question; What’s it going to take to get people to take traumatic medical training? We don’t have all the answers but we do have some.

No intellectually honest person can argue that we have allowed the United States of America to be put into a terrible, dangerous position. Hard times are coming. The question we address is what can each person do about that? We will talk about controlling those things that we can control.

Knowing and understanding the Deadly Force Checklist could be the difference between victory and disaster if you are ever put into a position where you are required to use a firearm to defend your life. We examine the Case of the Tacqaria Robbery in Texas.

The United States of America is a joke to the invaders who are infesting our nation. Witness the recent incident in New York City where 5 illegal invaders attacked two police officers. The criminals were released without bail and then they laughed and flipped off the news cameras.

We’ll be back with normal episodes next week, however if you wanna hear the After-Action from Prof. Paul & Jarrad’s training tour from the last two weeks, you can join at GetSOTG.com today!

During our TechTalk from EOTech Inc. Professor Paul will address the use of a .22 rimfire cartridge as a primary self-defense tool. Is the .22LR the “best choice” for women or older Americans?

Additionally, SOTG Homeroom from www.SOTGU.com, we will discuss in detail the 4 Rules + 1 safety briefing. How could this save your life or that of another person?

Paul Glasco is on the show with us to talk about his new book “How To Make A Monster: A Sensible Look At Rampage Killers”. In this discussion, Mr. Glaso explains factors that tie all of the recent rampage killers together. What facts has the mainstream media deliberately overlooked or flat out lied about?

Professor Paul & Jarrad are on the road teaching classes this week, so we’re looking back on some of the highlights of 2024!
