    Happy summer, everyone, and welcome back to another episode of TFB’s Behind the Gun Podcast.

    On this episode of TFB's Behind the Gun Podcast, we're joined once again by Bryce from the Carry Handle Podcast as we go through some of the industry's latest news and trends.

However, our biggest topic of the day is of course in refrence to the "Big Beautiful Bill" and some recent changes made to it by the Senate Finance Committee. Today Bryce and I will share our own interpreation of the changes made to the bill, and what we think it might mean for the the country in terms of opening up a lot of new doors for people when it comes to firearms ownership.  The Carry Handle Podcast on YouTube The Carry Handle Podcast on Spotify The Carry Handle Podcast RSS  The Carry Handle Podcast on Instagram

    TFB Behind the Gun #170: Paul Fletcher's "Taquito 22" Suppressor

    In today’s episode of TFB’s Behind the Gun Podcast, we bring back Paul Fletcher of Fletcher Rifle Works to talk about his new line of suppressors. While Fletcher Rifle Works is primarily known for their introduction of the OpenTop 11/22 platform, they’ve now also delved into the suppressor business with the Taquito 22, Cotula 6, Texas Flood, and Weston 8 being their first offerings, and with each silencer offering slightly different characteristics to fit the wildly varying shooting practices found in the United States. With what looks like a good move for gun laws when it comes to suppressors - the elimination of Suppressors from the NFA - Paul shares his thoughts on what might happen to the industry if things go our way for once.

    TFB Behind the Gun #169: Conor with ACE Virtual Shooting

    In this exciting episode of TFB’s Behind the Gun podcast, we sit down with Conor, CEO of ACE Virtual Shooting, to explore the groundbreaking Ace XR Virtual Shooting Simulator. We dive into the system’s ability to hone skills like trigger control and visual processing, while also going over some debates about its realism compared to live-fire training. The conversation gets lively as we discuss the “sticker shock” of Ace XR’s cost, its immersive VR handset, and how it stacks up against dry-fire tools like MantisX. From what systems and hardware ACE is using, to questions about its fit for beginners versus pros, we cover it all. Conor shares his vision for future tech upgrades, like new firearm models, and how ACE aims to win over traditionalists. Packed with insights and lighthearted banter, this episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about the future of virtual firearms training or who wants a convenient way to improve their skills with handguns.  ACE Virtual Shooting ACE Virtual Shooting on Instagram ACE Virtual Shooting on Facebook Ace Virtual Shooting on TFBTV Show Time

    Today's episode of TFB's Behind the Gun podcast features Bo and Aaron of Staker Precision, the small company behind the new Side ACOG Mount or SAM. The SAM somewhat reverses the roles of the offset red dot and primary optic and instead puts the magnified ACOG at a 36-degree offset for a quick boost in magnification over that of your normal red dot. Today both Aaron and Bo will share their origin story from conception, to prototyping and eventually to production and give us some insight into how the optic is meant to be used as well as clear up some misconceptions about its utility for longer range engagements.  Staker Precision Staker Precision on Instagram Staker Precision on YouTube

    Join us this week on TFB's Behind the Gun Podcast for an engaging conversation with Dan Wolgin, CEO of Ammunition Depot, as we dive into the hot topic of ammunition prices and why gun owners don’t need to be “tariff-ied" of the recent tariffs being levied both by and against the United States.

We tackle the real threat of panic buying, a concern for every Second Amendment supporter, and get practical tips on avoiding shortage-driven spikes as well as what customers can do to hedge their bets against real uncertainty and volatility within the firearms industry. For reloaders, Dan shares insights on the ongoing smokeless powder shortage and whether it’ll hit retail ammo prices.
