Firearm storage is not just about what you buy, it's about what you know. In this episode, Mike and Nicky Zabetian from Kinisium join Mike to break down Kini Safe Alert, a small, discreet motion/tamper notification device that texts (or app-notifies) you when something you care about is moved, opened, or accessed.They talk through the real stories that inspired the product, why “my kids know better” is not a plan, and how Kini can add a passive layer of awareness to safes, drawers, cases, ammo storage, and more. You'll also hear how they built the product through COVID-era supply chain chaos, why they designed it to avoid subscriptions, how the settings work (sensitivity, quiet modes, multi-person alerts), and how this kind of tool can complement suicide prevention and responsible ownership without tracking you or your location.Plus: what it's like breaking into the firearms market with a safety product, what they're bringing to SHOT Show, and the question we ask every guest, how do you tend to your mental health?Send a text Walk the Talk America would like to thank our partners who make these conversations possible and would like to highlight our top two partner tiers below!

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.

Welcome back to another After Dark episode of the Iron Sights Podcast.Recorded at SHOT Show 2026, I sit down with Paul Costa of Broken Arrow Defense and Achilles Heel Tactical. Paul's background was built the hard way — patrol cars, high-risk warrants, working alongside a canine, and years in environments where fundamentals weren't optional. They were survival.Today, Paul carries that same commitment into the training world, instructing law enforcement and responsible citizens in firearms tactics and performance. A Masterclass competitive shooter, Walther Pro Staff instructor, and Safariland cadre member, Paul is first and foremost a student of the craft — and it shows.We talk about building skill that holds under pressure, developing people and teams, the realities of the firearms training business, and what pursuing mastery really means in a world chasing shortcuts.

Welcome back to another After Dark episode of the Iron Sights Podcast.Recorded at SHOT Show 2026, I sit down with Brian Williams — better known as the Unicorn Chief. From SWAT operator to Chief, a stint in City Hall, and back to policing, Brian's career has given him a perspective that most people in the profession never get. He's seen leadership from the street, the admin side, and the political layer in between.In this conversation, we dig into police culture, mentorship, accountability, and why standards in training actually matter. As a USPSA Grandmaster, Brian doesn't just preach performance — he lives it. If he's not in the office handling the administrative side of the job, he's on the range sharpening his edge and pushing others to do the same.Brian is direct. He doesn't sugarcoat. He's not interested in protecting feelings — he's interested in protecting the mission. Sit back and enjoy this After Dark episode with the Unicorn Chief, Brian Williams.Timestamps:00:00 Intro08:38 Brian's Career18:52 Leadership Path28:42 Public Perception40:03 Leadership Struggles48:16 City Management01:04:53 Leadership Defined01:14:07 Accountability Crisis01:22:27 Mentorship01:27:21 Training Challenges01:42:57 Competition & Standards01:55:09 Execution Mode02:02:09 Self-CareRed Dot Fitness Train Online: http://rdftrainonline.com/Online Membership (Full Access To All Programs & Virtual Coaching):https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-membershipVirtual Coaching:https://www.reddotfitness.net/virtual-coachingSelf-Guided Programs:https://www.reddotfitness.net/Self-Guided-Programs1Connect With Us:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/

GOING BALLISTIC Maryland House Judiciary Committee to Hear HB 874 Handgun Ban Bill The Maryland House Judiciary Committee is scheduled to hear House Bill 874 on February 12, 2025, which seeks to ban the manufacture, sale, and possession of certain semiautomatic handguns classified as ‘assault pistols.' The bill targets specific models like the Beretta 92X Performance, CZ P-10C, Glock 19, Sig Sauer P320, and Smith & Wesson M&P 2.0, among others listed in proposed Criminal Law Article § 4-302. NRA-ILA urges opposition to the bill, viewing it as an infringement on Second Amendment rights. California AG Sues Gatalog Over 3D-Printed Gun CAD Files Distribution California Attorney General Rob Bonta filed a lawsuit against Gatalog LLC and its operator, Len Patterson, for allegedly distributing CAD files for 3D-printing unserialized firearms, violating state ghost gun laws. The suit claims Gatalog's website enabled the production of undetectable and untraceable guns by providing over 644 firearm designs. It seeks to halt the distribution and impose civil penalties under California's assault weapons and unsafe handgun laws. New Mexico House Bill 82: Democrats Advance Broadest Gun Ban in US New Mexico House Democrats are poised to pass House Bill 82 this week, which would ban dozens of semi-automatic firearms including AR-15s, AK-47s, and many handguns. The bill targets firearms with detachable magazines and specific features like pistol grips or folding stocks. It has advanced through committee and is scheduled for a House floor vote. Gun Owners of America Action Alert: Oppose S. 407 Anti-Gun Bill (February 3, 2026) Gun Owners of America urges members to contact Senators to oppose S. 407, a bill introduced by Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) that would ban commonly owned semi-automatic firearms, including AR-15s and similar rifles. The legislation targets firearms with pistol grips, folding stocks, and other standard features, classifying them as ‘assault weapons.' It also bans magazines over 10 rounds and imposes restrictions on private transfers. Ammoland Article: Committed Gun Grabbers Claim to Support the Second Amendment (February 2026) The article criticizes politicians and groups labeled as ‘gun grabbers' who publicly claim support for the Second Amendment while advocating restrictive gun control measures. It highlights inconsistencies in their rhetoric and actions, portraying them as undermining constitutional rights. Examples include statements from figures like Joe Biden and organizations such as Everytown for Gun Safety. DOJ Amicus Brief in Support of Challenge to Massachusetts Handgun Roster (Savage) The U.S. Department of Justice filed an amicus curiae brief in a federal lawsuit challenging Massachusetts' handgun roster law, arguing that the Attorney General's authority to ban handguns lacking arbitrary safety features violates the Second Amendment. The brief, submitted in the case Reese v. Department of Revenue, contends that the roster effectively prohibits most modern handguns by imposing subjective loaded chamber indicator and magazine disconnect requirements not justified by public safety data. It cites post-Bruen precedents to assert that Massachusetts' scheme fails constitutional scrutiny. Oregon Democrats Propose Two-Year Delay for Permit-to-Purchase Law (HB 2005) (Savage) Oregon Democrats are advancing a proposal to delay the implementation of the state's new permit-to-purchase handgun law, HB 2005, from its original August 2026 start date to August 2028. The delay addresses concerns over the Oregon State Police's readiness to process the required background checks and issue permits. This comes amid ongoing legal challenges to the law, which mandates a safety course, background check, and references for handgun purchases. New Mexico House Bill 129 – Proposed Broadest Gun Ban in US (Savage) New Mexico Democrats are advancing House Bill 129, which would ban a wide array of semi-automatic firearms including AR-15s, AK-47s, and many handguns.
Double Tap - Ep 448 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Primary Arms Night Fision (Code: WLSISLIFE) Otis Technology (Code: WELIKESHOOTING15) Second Call Defense Mitchell Defense (Code: WLS10) Swampfox Optics Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 New Public notes page. 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?

At SHOT Show 2026, I sat down with Joe Hamilton, CEO of Vortex Optics, for a conversation that goes way beyond optics, sales, or gear.Joe's journey started on the floor of his family's small retail shop in Wisconsin, long before the boardroom. That early exposure to people, service, and doing things the right way shaped what would become Vortex's defining edge: a relentless focus on human connection.In this After Dark episode, we dig into leadership, the Care Movement, and why people-first culture beats short-term efficiency every time. We talk about building trust, leading with purpose, and creating loyalty that can't be bought.This one's about heart, hustle, and human performance — the kind that actually lasts.Sit back and enjoy this After Dark conversation with Joe Hamilton, CEO of Vortex Optics, here on the Iron Sides Podcast.Timestamps:00:00 Intro04:38 Joe's Background11:49 Vortex Growth24:19 Leadership43:31 Efficiency vs People48:58 Customer First57:57 Hiring01:04:45 Scaling01:21:28 Caring Culture01:39:42 Family Business01:46:47 InnovationRed Dot Fitness Train Online: http://rdftrainonline.com/Online Membership (Full Access To All Programs & Virtual Coaching):https://www.reddotfitness.net/online-membershipVirtual Coaching:https://www.reddotfitness.net/virtual-coachingSelf-Guided Programs:https://www.reddotfitness.net/Self-Guided-Programs1Connect With Us:Website - https://ironsightspodcast.com/Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/ironsightspodcast/Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/
