Blanton discusses his personal battle with PTSD and his non-profit organization Warfighter Made.

This week John and Andy talk to Patrick McNamara about all things badass, including: High intensity training, compartmentalizing stress in a gunfight, and how important understanding your mission is when selecting gear. Additionally John convinces Pat Mac to say "Snap into a slim jim!" on live radio, thereby fulfilling a lifelong (not really) dream of his.

This week we talk to Kyle Defoor from Defoor Proformance Shooting about a myriad of topics including; Whether or not shooting standards actually prepare people for a gunfight, the future of combat optics, and consistency in carry gear.
