Double Tap Episode 429 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Swampfox Optics, Blue Alpha, Night Fision, Medical Gear Outfitters, Rost Martin, Bowers Group, and Matador Arms Welcome to Double Tap, episode 429! Your hosts tonight are Jeremy Pozderac, Aaron Krieger, Nick Lynch, and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show! Dear WLS Ryan W - Good evening gents So I want to theoretically bury around 15 ar's in an undisclosed location. What's the most economic way to keep them in good condition for about 20 years? I have some standard food safe grade plastic barrels. Should I just add guns and motor oil? Thanks for the insight. JD - After the first of the year what are we going to have to do to register an ar pistol as a sbr do we have to go to a ffl? Shane H - I know it was talked about a while ago but I can't find the episode. Who do you recommend for firearm collection insurance? One that does not require serial numbers if possible. Is it a separate policy from your FFL or just one policy? Thomas L - What was your favorite thing you saw at goals? Zachary V - Hello, not to get too technical and make this a huge list, but looking into getting my bug-out bag done. What are the essentials that should be prioritized first and what is something that you include in yours that most people wouldn't have considered? Notes? No? Trucker Matt - If you had to pick the perfect "backpack gun" and concealable handgun combo that uses the same ammunition, what is each cast member's combo of choice? For example, a 9mm HK SP5K and Glock 19, an AR pistol in .22LR with a folding buffer and FN 502, a Diamondback DBX 5.7 and FN Five-Seven (bonus points for magazine compatibility), a Chiappa 1892 Alaskan Takedown in .357 Magnum, and Ruger SP101. Drink a tall glass of pineapple juice every day. It's good for your gut health and your significant other will thank you for it. capt.doogie howser - I have recently started a business, and am using social media as a marketing tool. What recommendations do you have for tools or assets to use to improve my reach and content quality? Logan G - Shawn, First question (not gun related), you have mentioned playing hockey quite a bit, and it sounds like you play in the Springs. I play PIHA and inline, and I was curious if you did too? If so, I'm sure you have wanted to fight me at some point… whoops.Gun-related question, saving up for a semi-auto shotgun for home defense and fun as well. Thinking about the Beretta A300 ultima or the Mossberg 940 tactical. Any opinion between the two? My main question, though, is what Gideon optic would be best for a shotgun? They have a ton of options! Love the show and listen every week! The winner of this week's swag pack is Trucker Matt! To win your own, go to welikeshooting.com/dashboard and submit a question!

Double Tap Episode 402 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Brownells, Black Rhino Concealment, Swampfox Optics, Medical Gear Outfitters, Night Fision, and Matador Arms Welcome to Double Tap, episode 402! Your hosts tonight are Jeremy Pozderac, Aaron Krieger, Nick Lynch, and me Shawn Herrin, welcome to the show! Dear WLS Dependable Don - Jeremy vs people that think 22 is a viable carry option, in a bus. Who wins? Jimmy - I have a 16” AR10 in 308 that runs like a champ. I bought a nickel boron BCG to have as a back up, but it has a persistent issue. When chambering a round it often fails to go into battery. If I ram it home with the forward assist it will then fire the round but fail to extract the case. The case heads show damage at the rim including crushing and tearing of the rim. My assumption is that the extractor is out of spec. It moves freely and the spring tension seems comparable to the original Aero. I've read somewhere about tuning extractors by changing the hook angle but I've never tried anything like that. I know I can just replace the extractor, but I'm taking this as a learning experience. I have a caliper and files, but I need some intel. Where would I find the schematics showing the correct shape & size of the extractor? Would you guys try this procedure or shitcan this garbage? By the time you read this I will probably have solved the problem, but hopefully it sparks a conversation. Thanks. Andrew C - What's up my dudes, Why the fuck does Aaron always sound like he has cotton balls in his mouth on the pod? Shitty mic or does he just sound like that? Either way it does'nt make me hate him any less. Anywho, I am starting a P365 build and want to get your guys opinion on a couple things. I already bought the base model 365 (basically just for slide and fcu) as well as a radian ramjet/afterburner for it. My goal is to put that on an xmacro frame so everything sits flush at the end of the pistol while having more to grip on the module. Do you guys have any recommendations on grip modules, triggers, trigger spring kits, etc? Looking at the wilson combat grip module or just getting the Sig xmacro frame and throwing on the radian backstrap/magwell. Also looking at the Tyrant cnc intellifire and pairng it with the tactical triggers trigger kit to take care of slop and crisp it up a fair amount. Any input/experience with those items or have other recs?Yes, I already know that putting all this on an xmacro frame makes it a larger gun to carry, but I dont give two shits about that. TIA for any input. Stay free or get fucked. Ethan P - For those of us planning our GunCon trip already. Jeremy, where should we go to eat while we're in your town? Jay W - Wasssaaaaaappp (man I miss the 90s and those Budweiser commercials) I just picked up my 2nd suppressor (Anechoic 30) and decided to go with the Deadair Keymo, found a brake and adapter at Brownells (use code WLS10). This is my first QD setup and thought a QD would be smart with a 30 cal can to swap it on a few of my builds for youtube reviews and flexibility with my arsenal (until I get more cans). So what's the deal with the mixed feelings on keymo? Depending on who you talk to you get a different opinion and some opinions (while everyone is entitled to one) are just plain dumb. You guys have a range of backgrounds and I'm just wondering if I did ok with choosing keymo or if I should convert to something else (since I'm not fully committed yet). Note- No notes. P.S. Who is the jackass that invented P.S. for letters? Like bro, just find space in the paragraph above to get your point across and end the letter with ""Sincerely"" and wrap it up B. Travis M - Nick, You've mentioned primarily appendix carrying, what holster brand and model do you use for your Smith & Wesson Airweight? Does your holster use belt loops, ulti clips or something else? Shoot straight, Travis

On this week's show we rundown the “Best of CES” as reported by the tech sites. We also read your emails and take a look at the week's news. News: Disney, Fox, Warner Bros. Discovery say Venu Sports won't launch DirecTV Launches ‘MySports' Streaming Package Other: Samsung Display CES 2025 showcase: All the cool tech we saw - SamMobile Star Wars Kid Star Wars kid Drunken Jedi Best of CES On this week's show we rundown the “Best of CES” as reported by the tech sites. Engadget LG OLED evo M5 - the company managed to further improve its most premium displays, adding the latest α (Alpha) 11 AI processor Gen2 to improve the look of lower-resolution content and power advanced features. Technics EAH-AZ100 earbuds ($300) - Technics' new Magnetic Fluid drivers have garnered a lot of headlines this week, but all you really need to know about the EAH-AZ100 earbuds is that the sound quality is massively improved. Powered by those new components, there's more clarity, detail and bass, all of which are upgrades from the already impressive AZ80 CNET LG G5 OLED TV - After seeing the picture quality, TV expert David Katzmaier singled this out as one of his favorite TVs of the show; he traditionally finds LG's OLED quality best-in-class (as do I for its monitors), and this year's is brighter with better contrast in ambient light. Xgimi Ascend - It's not the LG OLED rollable screen of your dreams, but the Ascend may be more within your grasp. It's a retractable, ambient light-rejecting screen with built-in speakers and an ultra short-throw projector that looks like a piece of furniture when the screen withdraws. TV tech guru Geoffrey Morrison has been an ultrashort throw skeptic, but thinks this pair may solve some of the issues he's had with them. There's no pricing yet for the screen (the projector is $2,700), but it's bound to be less than models like the LG. The Verge Awards at CES (Full List) Best TV Panasonic Z95B OLED - At CES 2025, it's the Panasonic Z95B OLED that I keep circling back to as my favorite. After a long hiatus from the US TV market, Panasonic is coming back for its crown. Like the G5, it features a new four-layer tandem OLED display that boosts brightness to new highs — this time without the micro-lens array technology that LG Display spent the last two years hyping. It also includes an impressive Dolby Atmos speaker array (tuned by Technics) that will rule out any need for a soundbar for many buyers. That audio hardware results in this being a thick TV by today's standards: Panasonic obviously favored nailing the picture and sound aspects over a thin design. And you know what? I'm here for it. Most no one asked for this, AI in TVs - AI is worming its way into everything, and at CES this year, it crawled into TVs and remotes. Naturally, that includes new sets from LG and Samsung, which are deploying AI to futz with your picture and sound settings and let you talk to a chatbot or analyze what's on your screen. Over at Hisense's “AI Your Life” booth, the company touted its AI Engine X that “optimizes every frame” with adjustments to color, brightness, and audio. Best smart home device Switchbot K20 Plus Pro - Switchbot's K20 Plus Pro is a robot vacuum that can have different devices strapped to its head using the company's modular “FusionPlatform.” As well as being able to deliver items around your home, it can have various SwitchBot products attached to it to perform tasks autonomously: purify your air, be a mobile home security camera, and carry your tablet around for you. They've even made an attachment to put a mini fridge on top. (So, yes, it can bring you a beer.) What intrigues me the most here is that its FusionPlatform is completely open; you can plug any device into its various power ports and customize this robot to do what you need. That's smart. Gizmodo's Best of CES 2025 Awards (Full List) Aurzen Zip Projector - The Aurzen Zip is the tiniest 720p projector I've ever seen. When folded, the $200 Zip is about the size of half an iPhone, making it the perfect on-the-go projector. The trifold projector can wirelessly mirror whatever is on your phone without a wifi connection. Two of the best features: it's MagSafe-compatible and has a 90-minute battery life. TCL QM6K TV - When it comes to TVs, bigger is always better—and it always comes with a higher price. But that's not the case with the TCL QM6K TV, with the 55-inch model costing $749 and the 98-inch version topping out at $3,499. Before you write the QM6K off as a no-frills budget brand, check out some of the specs. As a QD mini-LED device, the QM6K can give some of the pricier heavy hitters a run for their money in the color and brightness categories. In fact, the QM6K is 53% brighter than previous models and 10% more light efficient. Plus, it has a host of powerful tech onboard to make its case, including HDR10, HDR+, and Dolby Vision. You get integrated Onkyo speakers, which should produce solid audio. However, the screen's the star here, serving up captivating colors with deep blacks and sharp details. It's an absolute beauty of a TV that brings all the bells and whistles you'd expect from a premium television at a fraction of the price. Technics EAH-AZ100 Earbuds - It takes a lot to stand out in the crowded field of wireless earbuds, but Panasonic's new flagship Technics EAH-AZ100 manage to do just that. Panasonic claims its $300 earbuds, available now, can offer reference class HiFi audio without needing large wired cans, thanks to “magnetic fluid drivers.” The buds' sound quality was impressive, especially with the world snuffed-out with ANC mode turned on. The sound resolution and bass were especially surprising, even while surrounded by noisy throngs of CES goers.The brushed steel case design makes the buds feel as premium as their $300 price tag. XGIMI Ascend - The Xgimi Ascend is a gorgeous 2-in-1 prototype ALR (Ambient Light Rejection) projector screen with a powerful soundbar. The Ascend houses a 100-inch motorized floor-rising screen for an immersive home theater experience. We've seen rollup displays before, but none of them match the style of the Ascend. The screen is adjustable, allowing it to be partially lowered for ambient modes, like a cozy fireplace display or a music visualization. Though still a prototype, the Ascend has the potential to attract anyone who wants a pop-up movie theater without spending tens of thousands of dollars. AVS Forum Best of CES 2025 (Full List) Valerion VisonMaster Max Lifestyle Projector - This was easily one of the most anticipated booth visits for both us and our readers. When we tested the Valerion Pro2, we were impressed by its performance, but it lacked some key features you'd want for a fully dedicated home theater system. Enter the Valerion Max, the flagship model that was teased during the brand's Kickstarter campaign. It promised to deliver everything the Pro2 was missing, including a dynamic iris, and we finally got to see it in action. LG G5 OLED - It's easily one of the most impressive TVs we've seen at the show. Available in sizes ranging from 48 inches all the way up to 97 inches, the G5 is packed with features. All sizes (except the 48- and 97-inch models) include LG's Brightness Booster Ultimate. LG also gave the remote a much-needed makeover. it's now slimmer with fewer buttons, which is a welcome change. TCL QM6K Mini LED TV - TCL is taking a different approach this year with a phased rollout of their TV lineup, starting with the QM6K, the first model in their new Precise Dimming series. As an entry-level option, the QM6K brings a surprising amount to the table. It features 500 dimming zones, a 144Hz refresh rate (boosted to 288Hz with Game Accelerator), and TCL's AiPQ Pro Processor, carried over from last year's QM8 series. TCL 115QM7K - This one's a bit tricky. TCL is keeping most of the details about the QM7K under wraps for now, but from what we saw, it's shaping up to be a strong addition to their lineup. What we did find out is that the 115” model will have 25,000 dimming zones and 3000 nits of brightness. It's available in sizes up to 115 inches, this model expands on what was previously only offered in the QM8 series. The move could mean more affordable options for larger screens, which is always exciting. Onkyo Icon Series - The P-80 which is priced at $1,999, is a two-channel network preamplifier. It includes HDMI ARC, Dirac Live Room Correction, a phono output, and a fanless design to keep noise levels down. The build quality is sturdy as well, with a 5mm aluminum front panel and three-piece housing. The M-80 is also priced at $1,999, and is a two-channel power amplifier delivering 150 watts into 8 ohms or 200 watts into 4 ohms. It uses a Class AB 3-stage Inverted Darlington design, offering high current drive and low distortion. Focal DIVA Wireless Active Loudspeakers - The Focal DIVA speakers were announced about a month ago, and seeing them at CES 2025 confirmed they're as impressive as they sound on paper. These wireless active loudspeakers feature a 3-way bass reflex design and are surprisingly easy to set up. They support Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, Google Cast, and work with the Focal Naim app. Each speaker is equipped with its own DAC and DSP, delivering 75 watts to the midrange, 75 watts to the tweeter, and 125 watts to each bass driver. That's a total of 400 watts RMS powered by four Class AB amplifiers. At $39,999 a pair, the Divas aren't for everyone, but they began shipping during the show for those ready to invest in high-performance audio. LG CineBeam S Ultra Short Throw Projector - LG revealed their solution: the CineBeam S, an ultra short throw version of the projector. It retains all the features we liked from the CineBeam Q, including an RGB laser with native 4K resolution, 500 ANSI lumens of brightness, and auto screen adjustment. But the big update here is the ultra short throw design, making it much easier to fit into a variety of setups.
