Retention is based on the light body, allowing customization of dimensions to fit various guns via parametric files, with options for TEK LOK or Safariland mounting patterns and standard or metric hardware. Recommended for printing in PETG, it addresses limited aftermarket holster support for certain firearms. Explaining Bail in the Myrtle Beach Self-Defense Shooting Case On June 12, 2025, Tequarius Barrett, 19, was charged with first-degree assault and battery after allegedly firing a gun in a late-night altercation near North Ocean Boulevard in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, claiming self-defense under the state's stand-your-ground law. His bond was reduced from $200,000 to $20,000 with strict conditions including GPS monitoring and firearm prohibition, highlighting bail challenges in self-defense cases. A stand-your-ground immunity hearing is set for April 17, 2026. THE ALLEY Pauls Valley High School Shooting Incident: Principal Tackles Armed Intruder On April 8, 2026, 20-year-old Victor Lee Hawkins entered Pauls Valley High School armed with two loaded pistols. One pistol malfunctioned when he attempted to shoot a student, allowing principal Kirk Moore to tackle him despite being shot in the leg. No specific manufacturer, model, or technical details of the firearms are provided. Note Are you ready to do what needs to be done? Prepare yourself today, the body can't go where the mind has never been. https://www.breitbart.com/2nd-amendment/2026/04/14/video-high-school-principal-tackles-wouldbe-mass-shooter/ Not Stated The article describes an incident at Old Dominion University where a pro-ISIS shooter named Mohamed Jalloh opened fire, but no specific manufacturer, model, or technical details about the firearm are provided. Army ROTC cadets, including Cadet Louis Ancheta, subdued the attacker using a pocket-knife, with no details on its make or model. No technical gear matching the required criteria (firearms with manufacturer and model) is explicitly detailed. GOING BALLISTIC Professor Jens Ludwig Pushes Behavioral Training and Public Space Improvements for Gun Violence Reduction (Savage) University of Chicago Professor Jens Ludwig advocates alternatives to uncertain gun control measures, proposing behavioral training programs like ‘Becoming A Man' in Chicago public schools to teach de-escalation of conflicts and urban design changes such as converting empty lots to pocket parks. These interventions target intuitive human thinking patterns (95% of brain activity) and environmental factors in high-violence areas to prevent escalation to gun violence. Detailed in his 2025 book ‘Unforgiving Places: The Unexpected Origins of American Gun Violence,' the approach focuses on low-income U.S. neighborhoods without restricting firearms ownership. GOA Demands Investigation into ATF's Leaking of Personal Information in Silencer Shop Found. v. BATFE (Savage) Gun Owners of America (GOA) is demanding a U.S. Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General investigation after DOJ attorneys representing the ATF publicly disclosed sensitive NFA tax returns and personal details of a GOA member on a court docket without redaction during the Silencer Shop Found. v. BATFE litigation. The filings included unredacted ATF Forms 1 and a declaration detailing the member's firearm collection, with the error repeated even after being alerted. GOA cites potential violations of 26 U.S.C. § 6103 prohibiting public disclosure of such information. Shreveport, Louisiana: Convicted Felon Kills 8 Children in Mass Shooting (Savage) A convicted felon in Shreveport, Louisiana, fatally shot eight children aged 3 to 11 across three homes and injured two adult women on April 19, 2026, before being killed by police after a chase. The perpetrator violated federal law by possessing a firearm due to his prior felony conviction for shooting at a vehicle. The incident has sparked political commentary on gun control, with critics like California Gov. Gavin Newsom blaming the NRA and calling for restrictions. 13 U.S. Senators Demand ATF Stop Enforcing Vacated Biden-Era ‘Pistol Brace' Final Rule (Savage) Thirteen Republican U.S. Senators, led by Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA), sent a letter to the ATF on April 15 demanding an end to enforcement of the vacated 2023 ‘Factoring Criteria for Firearms with an Attached Stabilizing Brace' rule, which classified most pistols with stabilizing braces as short-barreled rifles under the National Firearms Act. They urge the ATF to issue an interpretive rule clarifying that braced firearms are not SBRs and to seek a permanent injunction via ongoing litigation by Texas and Gun Owners of America. The rule was vacated by courts in August 2024, but ATF signals intent to continue its legal theory. REVIEWS Review: Brown guy 78 from Iowa Review from Brown guy 78, Solid gun knowledge, Shawn is deeply dove into giving the listeners knowledge, Jeremy is usually sick and snotty, but his knowledge is endless, Nick is the sharpest edge, maybe because he's silent most of the time. Aaron is absent . So yeah, great podcast! (Intentionally left Savage out.. fuck him.) 5 stars! Love this show! Review: Anonymous Coward from Florida PooP Review: Anonymous Coward from OR Hilarious that this guy is offended by Trump's actions where was he when Biden was falling down stairs tripping over chords calling out for a dead person in the crowd. Confused walking down the White House lawn passing the door He's supposed to be entering. Not sure where to go on stage....

THE AGENCY BRIEF Agency Update THE HOOK (COLD OPEN) “If you've ever wondered when the federal government decided your constitutional rights needed a permission slip and a background check, welcome to the Gun Control Act of 1968.” THE INTEL (THE STORY) Why?: The 1960s were a mess of race riots, civil unrest, and high-profile assassinations (JFK, MLK, RFK). The political elite used the national panic to ram through a wishlist of federal gun control they had wanted for decades, convincing the public that the legal supply chain was the enemy, rather than the radicals pulling the triggers. The Play-by-Play: What it did: Backroom Deals: Domestic gun manufacturers essentially sold out the people. They backed the bill because it banned the import of cheap, foreign-made handguns—effectively wiping out their competition. The Media Lie: The press sold the GCA as a “targeted” bill to stop assassins. They completely ignored that it effectively criminalized the interstate market, invented the “prohibited persons” list, and choked off the legal supply chain for everyday citizens. The Reality Check (Hidden Incentives): Rumors: Rumor (Highly Credible): Senator Thomas Dodd explicitly modeled the 1968 GCA after Nazi Germany's 1938 Weapons Law. Dodd was a prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trials and public records confirm he had the Library of Congress translate the Nazi law. The structural parallels involving dealer licensing, tracking, and “sporting” clauses are nearly identical. Rumor: LBJ's push for the law was heavily influenced by elite, backroom fears of armed Black Panther patrols in California, rather than just the high-profile assassinations. Gun control is in fact rooted in racism. THE 2A ANGLE (LEGAL & IMPACT) The Threat: The GCA is the mother-ship of modern federal gun control. It created the Federal Firearms License (FFL) system, age restrictions, and the “prohibited persons” list. The ATF's current “zero tolerance” strategy of revoking licenses for misspelled words is entirely dependent on the FFL chokepoint created right here in '68. Bruen Test: Regulatory Creep: Pattern 1: Regulate the seller instead of banning the buyer (creating the FFL dependency). Pattern 2: Exploit intentionally vague language (like “engaged in the business”) so unelected bureaucrats can expand the law later without a Congressional vote. Pattern 3: Frame rights restrictions as “regulating interstate commerce” to bypass the Constitution. Pattern 4: Build the architecture of a registry quietly through compliance paperwork (Form 4473). THE TALKING POINTS (ON-AIR READY) WLS IS LIFESTYLE GFEN's Gun Maker's Match GMM is an annual DIY gun competition event that is the first official shooting competition exclusively for individuals who make their own guns. Multiple stage events are conducted for both Kit Built and 3D Printed guns in Pistol, PCC, and Rifle Divisions, with a special side match for .22lr 3D Printed Firearms. Guns For Everyone National has created the first Competition Series for 3D Printed & Kit Built Firearms.0 THE ALLEY AuxArc 3D Printable Firearms Holsters and Gear @AuxArc is a MakerWorld profile specializing in 3D printable models for firearms accessories, including holsters compatible with Glock 17/19 and Ruger RXM, as well as storage solutions for ammo and batteries. Pinned models feature OWB and IWB holsters with options for lights like Streamlight TLR-1/TLR-7 and optic cuts. These are designed for 3D printing with some watertight and parametric features, but no detailed mechanical specs beyond compatibility are provided. GOING BALLISTIC National Rifle Association v. NRA Foundation Lawsuit (Washington, D.C.) The NRA Foundation faces ongoing transparency issues in a lawsuit filed by the National Rifle Association alleging illegal trademark use and failure to distribute funds. The Washington, D.C. Attorney General's office mediated the dispute but efforts failed, leading to a FOIA request (R005465-030626) for leadership details. The Foundation provided its 2024 Form 990 but refuses to disclose current trustees, officers, or salaries until the 2025 filing on November 15, 2026. New York Proposed Bills Reclassify BB Guns and Air Guns as Imitation Firearms (Savage) New York lawmakers have introduced bills in both the Assembly and Senate to reclassify airguns, BB rifles, and pellet guns as imitation firearms, requiring barrel plugs and toy-like coloration that would render them non-functional for firing projectiles. This aims to prevent police shootings involving realistic-looking airguns mistaken for real firearms. Paintball guns are exempted but face a raised purchase age from 16 to 18, while manufacturers would be deemed firearms industry members subject to public nuisance lawsuits. Colorado SB 26-043: Firearm Barrel Background Checks (Savage) Colorado Senate Bill 26-043 requires background checks, dealer transfers, and five-year recordkeeping for sales or transfers of firearm barrels, treating them like complete firearms. Non-serialized barrels must be serialized, with penalties including up to 30 days in jail and $500 fine for first-offense violations. The bill targets ghost guns but imposes compliance on all law-abiding gun owners in Colorado. Virginia HB40: Spanberger Signs Ghost Gun Ban (Savage) Virginia Governor Spanberger signed HB40, banning the manufacture, transfer, sale, importation, and eventual possession of unserialized firearms and unfinished frames or receivers in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The law establishes a serialization process for federal firearms licensees but includes no grandfather clause. Most provisions take effect January 1, 2027, with the possession ban effective July 1, 2027.0 OCC and FDIC Final Rule Prohibiting Discrimination Against Firearm Companies (Savage) The OCC and FDIC have issued a new Final Rule that prohibits banking regulators from using ‘reputational risk' as a basis for supervisory actions against institutions serving the firearm and ammunition industry. This rule ends the practice of debanking lawful gun businesses by barring adverse actions based on political, social, or constitutionally protected activities. The National Shooting Sports Foundation praised it as a significant victory under the Trump administration. FPC Statement on Trump Administration's Decision to Support Biden ATF ‘Frame or Receiver' Rule (Savage) Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC) issued a statement criticizing the Trump Administration for maintaining the Biden-era ATF ‘Frame or Receiver' rule after the U.S. Supreme Court upheld it in March 2025. Despite FPC providing a proposed alternative rule in May 2025 and numerous other recommendations, the Administration informed FPC it would preserve the existing definition of firearm ‘frame' and ‘receiver'. FPC accuses the Administration of actively working against Second Amendment rights rather than protecting them. OCC and FDIC Final Rule Prohibiting Reputational Risk-Based Debanking of Firearm Industry The OCC and FDIC issued a final rule that eliminates ‘reputational risk' as a basis for supervisory actions against banks, directly addressing debanking of lawful firearm and ammunition businesses. This change prohibits regulators from encouraging account closures based on political or social views, promoting objective banking supervision. The rule responds to prior findings of inappropriate distinctions against gun-related companies by FDIC-insured institutions. Virginia Proposed Assault Weapons Ban: Gun Store Sales Surge in Henrico County Gun sales in Virginia have surged dramatically as residents rush to purchase firearms ahead of a proposed state ‘assault weapons' ban set to prohibit AR-15 possession after July 1, 2026, unless owned prior. Background checks rose from 47,069 in March 2025 to 79,

Last weekend there was a triathlon here in my little town, and we got to people watch a lot of folks cycling past our neighborhood. Cycling is my first love. Far and away above shooting, and I really cannot wait until I’m healed up enough to get back in the saddle. One guy in particular came riding by, and he stuck me as a little odd, and then I thought the things he was doing related well to a lot of the things people do in the shooting sports as well. Dude rides by. Full on triathlon kit. Not unusual. Tight lycra suit, bright colors, and a fancy Time Trial helmet. Not a regular bike helmet with the vents and stuff that everyone and their brother wears, but a TT helmet. You know, those helmets that are like tear drop shaped to make you more aero, and they stick way out past the back of your head like 12” for more aerodynamics? Again, not terribly unusual for someone to wear one at a high level of competition. However, he was riding a hybrid bicycle. If you’re not familiar with a hybrid, at a high level, they’re like a mountain bike, with skinnier road bike tires. They’re handy for transportation, but they don’t really excel at anything. They’re the Honda Civic of bicycles. He was also wearing tennis shoes and using flat pedals. As a cyclist, I can tell you, that being clipped into your pedals is one of the best things you can do for efficiency. This guy bought all the fancy “look fast” gear, but didn’t invest in any of the actual “go fast” gear. The money spent on the fancy helmet would have been far better spend on clip-less pedals and cycling shoes. I’m not gonna dog on the bike itself, because I always tell people to go compete with what they’ve got, and maybe this guy was doing just that, and that’s great. So, I give you this lesson on cycling to tell you about shooting. A while back I had a question from a newer shooter asking which type of holster to buy for his gun. He was shooting outlaw type matches, and wasn’t sure which type of race holster to buy. My advice was to just get a kydex rig from whoever because the holster wasn’t what was holding him back in his shooting, and he’d be better off spending $50 on a solid holster that’ll work for whatever game he decided to play instead of spending $200 on a holster that wouldn’t work if he decided to shoot Production or Carry Optics or IDPA in the future. I’m not sure what he bought, but per our emails, I suspect he went ahead and bought a $200 race holster... Mostly because that’s what he wanted all along. This isn’t a problem, you should shoot whatever you want, but don’t think that a piece of gear like this is really going to make you better. I think that he was under the impression that everyone, given the chance would shoot a race holster and not a kydex holster, but people just shoot the kydex rigs because they have to per division requirements. This is the case for a lot of people, but I also think a lot of people who shoot with race holsters do it because it’s the defacto standard for their division and most of them probably can’t tell you how much of an advantage they actually get from the holster. I also think most of them would have been better off putting that $150 they would have saved towards some instruction or ammo, or whatever. Again, I’m not against race holsters, and that’s not what this episode is about. My point here is that before you go spend a bunch of money on something, make sure that it’s a thing that you're actually going to get your pay value for. The guy in the triathlon would have been FAR better off with clipless pedals and good cycling shoes. Then lighter tires, and finally, a better bike. I used to be involved in the 4x4 scene a bit a decade or so ago, and it was the same thing. People wanted to buy the big lift kit, and the big tires, but nobody wanted to re-gear the axles, or add sway-bar disconnects. People wanted to add lift blocks instead of getting new springs, etc. The same thing happens with shooting. People want the lift kit and the big tires. They want the fancy race helmet, and the brightly colored shirt, because new sights aren’t sexy. Practice isn’t sexy. It’s hard work. It takes time and it’s expensive. However, if you don’t want to suck, it’s the road you’ve got to take. Join the Super Squad! Want more podcasts and bonus content? Consider joining the Super Squad. Q&A: Mike asked a question in last weeks Q&A show that I didn't get to during the live show.  "Any tips for shooting with a weapon mounted light?" Yes. There's not a lot to it, it's basically like shooting in the daylight, however, make sure you know how NOT to activate the strobe mode should your light have that, because turning it on accidentally during a night match will mess with you. Other than that, there's really not a lot to them. I like my Streamlight TLR-1, because as a right handed shooter I can use the switch kind of like a gas pedal for controlling recoil.  If you've got questions, shoot me an email at luke@triangletactical.net, and make sure to join me on Thursday nights at 9PM EST on Facebook live every week! Plugs of the Week: This episode of Firearms Nation Podcast with Shannon Smith was really good. I love Shannon's own podcast, but hearing him interviewed was great. They talk a lot about the IPSC World Shoot 2017.  This episode of the 3-Gun Show with Matt Martini was really good. I might have like it a *little bit* because it stroked my ego just a little when Matt talked about how if you can hang with the big dogs at matches here in the Carolinas, you can shoot with anybody. He also has some interesting thoughts on practice, and keeping track of his cold times on drills, as well as his fastest times. Good stuff, definitely worth a listen.

Weapon mounted lights are pretty awesome. They offer a lot of advantages over a handheld light, in that you don't have to fumble with two things in your hand, you can fire the gun with full grip strength using both hands, and they really make shooting in the dark as close to shooting in daylight as you can get. There are two arguments against weapon mounted lights, and both of them are unfounded these days: "You have to point the gun at someone to identify them." Back in the day with really dim incandescent lights this was true. The fact is though that the current generation of LED weapon mounted lights are more than bright enough to light up an entire room with the gun at low ready. "If I have the light on the gun, the bad guy will just shoot at the light and kill me!" Let's face it, even with a handheld light, you'll most likely be holding it with a syringe grip in basically the same place as a weapon mounted light, or you'll be holding it up near your head which could be even worse. Target fixation is a real thing, and getting shot in the hands during a gunfight is a theme I've noticed when reading about shootings, but I don't think the light being handheld or weapon mounted really makes a difference in these situations. If anything, having it attached to the gun may keep you from dropping the light if you were to get shot in the hand. IDPA and USPSA don't allow weapon mounted lights, because of the huge advantage that they offer. That's fine for games, but if they offer such a big advantage, it sounds like something that I'd want in a gunfight. If you have a defensive long gun, using a handheld light really isn't an option at all. A good option is a pistol mounted light that can pull dual duty on a pistol and a long gun. In the episode, Ben mentioned the Mossie Tactics light mount for adding his Streamlight TLR-1 to an AR-15 with a standard front sight block. You need to play around with mounting the light in different locations, and decide what works best for you. Some people like them mounted closer/further from the muzzle, and in different orientations around the handguard (12 o'clock, 9 o'clock, etc.). The News: Ruger announced the LC9s this week, which is a striker fired version of the Ruger LC9. It's supposed to have half the trigger length of the standard LC9, and a 5lb trigger that has been described as "glock like". Unfortunately it has the full gamut of lawyer features (thumb safety, trigger safety, and magazine disconnect). It's awesome that Ruger is listening though, and decided to make the striker fired version of this pistol. Ben suggested that they should make a "Free State" version without the thumb safety and magazine disconnect. Ruger, if you're listening, I'd buy one. Or two. The Kansas City, MO city council voted unanimously this last week to ban open carry in the city. Fortunately though for lovers of liberty in the city, it looks like the state legislature is set to override the veto of a bill that will make it illegal for the city of Kansas City to do this.
