This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: C&G Holsters (Code: WLSISLIFE) Midwest Industries (Code: WLSISLIFE) Blue Alpha Bowers Group (Code: WLS) Otis Technology (Code: WELIKESHOOTING15) Guests: Jon Patton – https://guncon.net – NILES, OH BIG PUBLIC SHOW DAY JUNE 20th, 2026 Industry/VIP Events JUNE 17-20, 2026 Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 Public https://welikeshooting.com/titles/ Dear WLS Question from Anonymous Coward from California WINNER People are looking at the ICE shooting all wro6vng. This is not a First Amendment issue. He wasn't peacefully protesting. There is plenty of video showing him actively blocking ICE vehicles before the shooting. That matters. This is also not a Second Amendment issue. He wasn't walking down the street, minding his business, and accidentally flashing a concealed carry gun. He was in direct physical conflict with law enforcement while armed. According to reporting, he had allegedly been “on duty” the week before, tracking ICE, and had been taken to the ground by agents, injuring his ribs. This time, when he went back “on duty,” he brought a gun. I understand why people instinctively hesitate to side with federal law enforcement. I really do. But if we're being honest, this situation demands a clear-eyed assessment—not emotional reflexes or ideological posturing. If the political alignment were reversed—if this were someone at a protest you agreed with—would you still argue the outcome was justified? In this case, my answer is still yes, the individual was at fault, regardless of ideology. As gun owners, we talk constantly about personal responsibility. That responsibility includes knowing what situations you do not escalate, especially when armed. A fight you cannot win is a fight against law enforcement officers when you are carrying a firearm. The moment you insert yourself into a physical confrontation with LEOs while armed, you are the one escalating the situation. Everyone knows this. This is not new. You are not going to win a solo fight against law enforcement. Period. Question from Jaqin Ta'Sox from Connecticut From; Jaqin Ta'Sox: Dear WLS Man. Sorry. The 646 episode got me fired up. In regards to Nick at time stamp 108 minutes. ICE doesn't need warrants to arrest illegal immigrants, because all of the people they are looking for are here illegally and 100% have another type of Law Enforcement Interaction (dwi, domestic violence, etc.) The illegals that don't have other Law Enforcement Interaction are usually collateral arrests, because ICE goes looking for 1 and find 12 together. As far as the US Citizens that interact with ICE, yes they are 99% detained and released upon verification of status. The 1% that are arrested/hurt are the people who escalate the Interaction instead of cooperating, like Jeremy said. Question from Anonymous Coward from California Question for double tap I've noticed that Jeremy is a lot calmer now that Aaron has been gone is that a coincidence or does Aaron just drive him that crazy? Question from Sean's Weight Loss Coach from Pennsylvania Question for Double Tap: With the new Ruger/Marlin 1894 in 10mm and the Taylor's 1873 Winchester clone in 9mm it got me thinking – what changes are needed to handle the rimless cartridges vs the more traditional rimmed cartridges that lever guns of this style are more commonly chambered for? Extractor change on the bolt? Chamber cut to control headspace with the cartridge mouth instead of the rim? Why has it taken this long for traditional lever guns like these to be chambered in rimless cartridges? Most sincerely, Sean's Weight Loss Coach Question from Anonymous Coward from California For double tap This question is mainly for Jeremy since he he sounds like he has the most experience with the XD line from SA. I have an XD.40 what parts should I expect to replace first and how often should I be cleaning it because I've heard mixed opinions on cleaning firearms? Question from LieutenantRand from Michigan LieutenantRand Are power lines higher in Africa? Or are there cases of giraffes being electrocuted? Question from Typicalpnwguy from Washington Dear wls crew, At the end of DT 447 Jeremy said to “go fuck yourself” so I did. Apparently its wrong for me to do so at a customer's house while doing deliveries. Now Im fired, wife left me, my dog found another hooman, and all I have is my pvs14 & mk18 cqbr blaster. Since Jeremy got me fired & divorced can I move in with you and get a job at the range? I promise to shit on Aaron every chance I get.

Double Tap - Ep 451 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Gideon Optics (Code: WLSISLIFE) Primary Arms Blue Alpha Rost Martin (Code: WLSISLIFE) Otis Technology (Code: WELIKESHOOTING15) Mitchell Defense (Code: WLS10) Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 Public https://welikeshooting.com/titles/ DEAR WLS Note Question from Mistertheguyaskingaquestion. I recently ordered my first suppressor since I live in a comme state now and they're trying to put a $500 tax on suppressors. I got a resilient suppressors, simple man 30 cal can. 2 questions. One, Is this a decent suppressor for the $500 I paid. Two, how many rounds do you think it will last. I will mostly be using it on bolt actions with occasional use on an ar. Great show! Question from Anonymous Coward from GA If reasonable fear of grave bodily harm justifies self defence, and whistles and bullhorns cause permanent hearing damage, why aren't we shooting protesters? Question from Dusky from Florida Dear WLS, We are seeing quite a bit of piston driven rifle systems, mainly AR (cause fuck everything else) hit not only the market but the front lines and the streets in some cases as it seems to be being issued more often. I understand the basic concept of the piston driven rifle; doesn't dump trash and heat into the bolt so much as well as other things… (maybe Jeremy can even explain some of the differences of some of the different piston systems, if we're lucky enough for him to oblige us in between burps and yawns and hitting his mic if he'snot playing clash of clans [love you Jerombe]) So why though? Probably has a lot to do with the previously stated reason, as well as running suppressors being common SOP for many, which brings up my question – Will we ever see more piston systems than DI? Do you think there will be a point where that happens, is there that much of an advantage for that to be a likely scenario? Thank you for your time. Dusky. Some notes. Question from DrCivilRightsGuy Hey guys. It's MLK weekend and I feel the Democrats sold black people a promise of prosperity and then decided to renig, ergo their situation may be worse now than before the civil rights movement. Many leaders came out of that flotsam, both MLK and Malcolm X rose above the rest. Both were very pro-gun but had different ideas on how to fight injustice. What does the cast think could have happened if the 70s went X's way instead of MLK's? What would both say about how things are now? Also, did nick just drop an n-bomb and then call those two heroes “sambos”? DrCivilRightsGuy Question from Anonymous Coward from Michigan With NFA stamps costing $0, I'm about to SBR a metric ton of lowers and would like to do my own NFA engraving. Anyone have experience with laser engravers and if so, any recommendation? Question from LagDemon from LagDemon if you had a mp5k/ clone and it had a 3 lug barrel and threads would you get a 3 lug mount or some kind of mount for the threaded? Question from Anonymous Coward from WA Cat Facts # 171 said Shawn likes going both ways with cats but wont have a threesome. I find this odd and wanna know why he doesn't have the courage to go all the way. We all know he has the balls but thats a whole nother story.

UK streaming services face new accessibility rules under the 2024 Media Act, requiring Netflix, Amazon Prime, Apple TV, and others to meet minimum standards for audio description, subtitles, and signed content. Steveen Scott and Shaun Preece dive into the UK's updated approach to on-demand accessibility, now overseen by Ofcom. The 2024 Media Act extends broadcast standards to major streaming platforms with 500,000+ users, establishing minimum requirements of 80% subtitled content, 10% audio described, and 5% signed programming. They discuss the delayed rollout—consultations through 2026, enforcement by 2027, and a four-year compliance period—sparking debate over why services need so long to implement features that largely already exist. RNIB's Sonali Rai joins to explore industry challenges including resource allocation, content discoverability, and metadata issues that prevent audio description from “travelling” across platforms. The conversation also covers: The potential global impact of UK regulation. Calls for higher AD thresholds and consistent accessibility. The role of AI in future audio description.

DEAR WLS Question from Peter J from WA Dear WLS: as far as carry guns go, what is important? Optics, comp/ port, trigger, capacity, comfortability, conceal availability, type of holster, or anything else you can think of? Or it's just the plain Jane G 19 stock type good to go? Question from Duke of Crude from TX Duke of Crude: What's up with Taylor and co? I thought they made high end lever actions, but I have been getting a ton of adds for what looks like a high point revolver (model 963) that's “Taylor and co”. Did their brand get high jacked from Turkish importers or are these things for real? Thanks! Notes: what happened to the new years dead pool episode? Did I miss it or were you waiting on Aaron to get back? Question from Micah Wells from Michigan Question! Why hasn't anyone come up with a quick release pistol dot or base/mount? Something like we use on rifles? You know, in case a problem arises that requires the whole thing to get out of the way in order to use BUIS. (AKA, crushed glass, debris, external fogging, etc.) I know all of my serious stuff utilizes a QR mount. Thanks, Micah Wells Question from Dusky from Florida Hi. Question. Can/Should you shoot lead round nose 22lr through a suppressor? (Have a modular can that can easily be disassembled and cleaned) Is this an issue, if so is it about the lead exposure, sound performance, or just a safety factor? Thank you. Is the Dusky. No Notes. Question from Ken G. from VA Ask WLS: My state has fallen. This year will likely see an onslaught of anti gun legislation passed. Moving is not an option. My firearms collection is pretty diverse. If you were in my shoes with YOUR collection, $3k, and less than six months to make purchases, what are you buying? Ken G. Sic Semper Tyrannis Question from Anonymous Coward from KS Dear WLS Hey Jeremy, how much for the old Harley? Question from Anonymous Coward from Ohio Hello I was wondering if there is a coupon code for pew locker? Thanks for all you guys do for the fun community. And the is show is way better without Aaron.

Travelling as a blind passenger can be a mix of comedy, frustration, and tech discovery. Steven Scott shares his delayed journey from Vienna, encounters with chatty robots, inaccessible airports, and the reality of airport assistance for blind travellers—plus the apps and tools that saved the day. In this episode of Double Tap, Steven Scott returns from a snowy Vienna with stories of flight cancellations, unexpected overnight stays, and surreal encounters with plate-collecting robots. He dives into the challenges blind travellers face at airports, from being left at gates for hours to the lack of independence in exploring shops and cafés.

The conversation also explores future solutions, including AI-powered navigation, LIDAR apps like EyeGuide, and why better Wi-Fi could transform independent travel experiences.

With Steven Scott away in Vienna at the Zero Project, the conversation turns to Apple's upcoming New York event and the growing speculation around a lower-cost MacBook powered by the A18 chip. Is Apple about to release a Chromebook-style Mac, or is this simply a more affordable entry into the Mac ecosystem? We unpack the differences between A-series and M-series chips, performance realities, and whether annual silicon upgrades even matter anymore.From there, the focus shifts to OpenClaw and the future of AI agents. After OpenAI hired OpenClaw's creator, the discussion explores what real-world AI automation should look like. Moving files, syncing drives, managing emails. Is this the AI promise finally delivered, or are big tech companies simply slower because of risk and regulation?Privacy takes center stage with a real-world case involving a Nest doorbell that recorded footage despite no active cloud subscription. If footage can be recovered anyway, what does that mean for data ownership and trust? The broader conversation expands into law enforcement access, encrypted devices, neighborhood camera networks, and where the line between security and surveillance should be drawn.The episode also features a CES conversation with Annie Potter, Head of Marketing at Reolink, discussing the company's local-first security philosophy, AI box integration, and their TrackFlex floodlight 4K camera. The emphasis is on ownership of footage without mandatory cloud subscriptions, competitive pricing, and how consumer demand is reshaping home security.Finally, the show closes with Meta's rumored facial recognition capabilities for Ray-Ban smart glasses. Is contextual AI in your ear helpful, invasive, or both? Accessibility benefits for blind users are weighed against potential misuse of public data.

DEAR WLS Question from Duke of Crude from Texas Duke of Crude: Hey Fam, When you travel, do you have a different carry gun you take than your normal EDC? The hard case I need for my witness tanfoglio to fit is bigger than I want for my checked bag. There is a fair deal on a shield plus at a local pawn shop and i was thinking it would be good for when I travel for work. What thoughts do you have or am I just wasting money? I do have to travel to Houston, Memphis, and New Orleans quite a bit and would like to know of what options you might carry for this application. Also, is carrying a big bore revolver into meth country (44 spc/mag or 45 Long colt) better than a typical 9mm micro double stack or is this just boomer lore? Thanks for the great show! Duke Question from Matt A from FL Matt A Recently I attended a concert and had to go through a metal detector and scanner. It got me thinking about large crowd events and what if there was an active shooter situation and here I am unarmed with my family and unable to protect them. So, reference gun free zones or large crowd events; what is the crews thoughts about going to large crowd events/places that prohibit firearms or carrying in areas that do not have metal detectors or scanners and are considered gun free zones or do you just avoid these places all together? In listening I believe Jermey is the only one with small children. So, do you not go places like amusement parks or places that would have metal detectors or scanners or schools events? Thanks for the insight, Love the show!! Question from LagDemon from MN From LagDemon I want to get a mp5k, I'm leaning towards the ptr 9rs. is there a difference in recoil from the reciver sizes because the mp5k has a shorter reciver than the reverse stretch version? both have the same 4-5″ barrel Question from Zach from CA Listening to double tap 444. Nick brought up doing something similar to Roadkill but for guns. This is a great idea for the dangerous freedom YouTube channel. Because some of you have FFLs, could you not buy firearms across state lines? Fly or drive some where with a set budget in mind. Purchase your firearm(used or maybe from agents?), accessories, whatever kit you may need, tools, etc. and compete in local events. Would be awesome to see. Maybe same premise but with loner firearms and agency members if way out of budget. Just a thought, thanks Zach Question from Anonymous Coward from NC Question for the cast from talk number two text You were talking about suppressor cages on a previous episode and about how you could use a hub mount to potentially mount a suppressor cage what if it was like a free float Darryl free hand guard and attached to the hub mount just the way that a free hand, guard attaches barrel nut. We know that most cans have a specific size. Yes some smaller some larger, but it's gonna be somewhat universal in the shit in the diameter . What if you had the hub mount have a portion of it that could lock on the cage for the suppressor talk amongst yourselves talk to text sucks while driving #WLS. Question from Jeff from NH Hi, this is Jeff from NH. Is a red dot on top of an LPVO too tall? Putting a dot at a 45 degree is not an option as im not a boomer fudd. Personally i think top dots are the way but some others say it practically unusable.

Greetings, Comrades!It finally happened. The "Second Army of the World" has achieved total independence from Western technology—by getting kicked off the server.In this episode, we break down the "Double Tap" strike that has left the Russian military deaf, blind, and screaming into dead radios. First, SpaceX implemented the "White List" protocol, turning thousands of smuggled Starlink terminals into expensive paperweights and blinding Russian artillery. Then, in a moment of bureaucratic genius, Roskomnadzor decided to "slow down" Telegram to fight NATO narratives—accidentally crippling their own army's only functional command-and-control system.We dive deep into the chaos of the "Analog Gold Rush," where ancient Soviet field phones are trading for the price of used cars, and Baofeng radios are the new Bitcoin. We also cover the assassination of GRU General Alekseyev (the "Spies killing Spies" moment), the "Pink Pony" reality of Dmitry Peskov, and the terrifying return of the "Time of Troubles."The Red Lines have turned to Brown Lines. The subscription is cancelled. Happiness is Mandatory.In this episode:The Kill Switch: How the Starlink "White List" crashed the Grey Market.Friendly Fire: Why blocking Telegram is an act of self-sabotage.The Analog Gold Rush: Why a $20 radio now costs $300 in Donetsk.High Politics: The assassination of General Alekseyev.The "Sausage Butt" Theory: Confirmed.Support the Show & The Cause:Trucks, not telegrams.

DEAR WLS Question from Dependable Don Hey bob what's it going to take to get a couple Gideon optics in ace vr….. I know your listening make it happen and the fans will try to stop Aaron from doing a over the pants handy Question from Duke of Crude from Texas Duke of Crude: Why is 28 gauge becoming more popular than 16 gauge? I ve been dabbling into shotguns recently and have noticed a large amount of 28 gauge availability even at places like Walmart. Notes: Savage is now Jar Jar binks with his stupid ass avatars he uses on the show to match some of the stupid ass comments he says. Also this being written in January, will Aaron go through more jobs, relationships, or vehicles in 2026? Question from Anonymous Coward from Florida Hi. Could y'all explain the legal process of building an sbr at home? I asked a local shop about doing the paperwork through them just to make it simple and their $200 fee, while probably reasonable, kind of put a damper on my excitement for free tax stamps. I know I need to get fingerprints and pictures done and engrave my address on the gun. What are my best options for accomplishing those things myself? Question from Anonymous Coward from Nebraska Dear wls. I have a bolt action 6.5 creedmoor pistol if I SBR it and for whatever reason want to unsbr it what would I have to do? Question from Anonymous Coward from NC Question for the cast from RealDeal Episode 644 got me thinking about printing suppressors. What if a company sold you a mounting device, either direct thread or QD, that is made of a material that can handle the heat. Then that company will sell along with it a STL file that allows you a certain number of prints or unlimited prints of the actual baffles/can. It would thread onto the mount that is on your gun and you could print an unlimited number of replacement “cans”. Just a thought that popped in. Also the only serialized part would be the mount. So you can just throw away the printed portion and slap on a new one. Let me know your thoughts. #textwhiledriving #agency171 #wls Question from Jaqin Ta'Sox from CT From Jaqin Ta'Sox: Question: Can you choose the order that the episodes are loaded into podcasts or is my app screwing with me? I ask because I'll listen to an episode with a guest, the listen to the following episode in the app and it says we have a guest in the next show. I feel like it keeps spoiling the surprise.

DEAR WLS Question from Anonymous Coward from CA (krista)Why isn't 6.5 grendel more popular? Question from Anonymous Coward from CA (krista)Jeremy just said that there's no other cartridge that'll do the work of a 300 blackout sub sonic. Why isn't sub sonic 350 legend, 450 bm, 458 socom etc. more popular for subsonic work? They all have more energy at the same velocity because bigger pill Question from Alex W. from FL (krista)Dear WLS. Can y'all recommend a 9mm subgun can for around $500? Preferably outside diameter of 1.62″ or less because that gives me more options for a suppressor tuck rail. But, if I have to go up to 1.7″ that's not a deal breaker. If it matters, it would be going on a stribog sp9a1. Thanks Alex W. Question from Alex W from Florida (krista)Dear WLS. Do you guys have any experience with the newer magpul metal pistol mags? Im pretty sure they make them for the p320 but what im most interested in is I'm pretty sure I saw that they're supposed to be coming out with metal p365 mags. I want a pile of mags for my xmacro but at $50 each from sig, that gets expensive fast. A cheaper one from magpul would be awesome as long as it works well. Thanks Alex W Question from Scott-G from WA (krista)Scott-G here 2 things 1 I was looking through mid west ind.'s extensive portfolio and noticed I could not find a m-lok to Arca adapter ( shut up Jeremy ARCA is superior to pic for precision work pic reigns supreme for optics and door kicking accessory mounts) . With your influence with mid west that might be a cool product to suggest 2 I asked last time what was up with Brownells and you kinda dodged the question. To be specific can we get an update as to who are the latest sponsors and what were the circumstances / situations that coused the splits with old sponsors. We listeners tend to trust you guys and knowing the back story often helps us decide where to support with our purchasing power. ( another example is swamp fox I have a decent Idea of why they are gone but confirmation would be nice) Question from John B from TX (krista)Dear WLS, I've been looking for a CZ P10C Ported lately, but I can't find one anywhere, including online(except for 1 on guns.com but they're selling it for $999 because it's the only 1). Everyone seems to have been out of stock of this thing for a while. Any idea what the deal is? Did CZ stop production or something?
