    Just spoke to my therapist today and brought up how a stray round hit my household in Chicago. In that same timeframe, my father was at a Sam’s club while there was an active shooter.
    Long story short, growing up in Chicago and being deployed in Iraq and Afghanistan has definitely taught me how important preparation is. But my therapist had the audacity to hint that I am being paranoid and shouldn’t carry a firearm…
    I stood ground and told her that it’s better to have it and not need it, rather than need it and not have it.
    Stay frosty boys!

    I love listening these guys who have been operating for years. The level of detail that you get from Unit guys is fascinating. I watched a video of Larry Vickers (a couple of generations behind Kyle) and they both share the same detail (Larry was describing bolting a king-size mag-lite on a MP5 back in the day). Their parallel assessment and evaluation of a tool (in this case a red dot vs the mag-lite) really shows the level of investment these men had in their trade and the advancement of technology. We had a 1SG in 3rd Rangers (Pat Hurley, RIP) who had spent years in the Unit and returned to the Regiment. The man was a wealth of knowledge. He'd walk behind a young 20 year-old fire team leader clearing a room and drop these small pearls of wisdom that saved lives. Proud to be an American and proud of these men who stood the line for our freedom and our children's safety. Thanks to you too Shawn, for the same reasons, your podcasts are excellent.

    Back in the day I used to EDC my Glock 22 un-chambered and I was able to successfully draw, rack, and hit one of my targets during a attempted robbery. When hindsight kicked in shortly after the incident I realized that the circumstances that allowed me to do so were one of a kind and very unique, and if it weren’t for those particular circumstances, then I probably wouldn’t be alive today. That’s the day that I started caring in one in the chamber.

    Absolutely spot on interview. I think everyone who carries a weapon, as I do, should watch this interview. Particularly compelling was the “conversation with yourself” part. When I started carrying I found myself reflecting on the realities of the responsibility of possibly using deadly force. For me the imprimatur was I carry for three reasons; 1) to protect my life and the lives of my family, 2) to defend the lives of the innocent, and 3) to assist LEOs under assault. When I arrived at those rationales I realized that I had effectively removed the mystery of making a life altering decision. Great interview Shawn! Bravo Zulu shipmate.

    Separated-continued education, M.A. psychology and certified CPT provider for PTSD/Trauma-one of the first in the state (TX) in conjunction with the VA and community MH providers. Licensed Professional Counselor and opened the Office Military and Veterans Services at West Texas A&M University-Director from 2012-2022, now private practice clinical therapy.
    This episode struck me as it is exactly what I say to my wife about her EDC Sig 9, no use to you without one in the chamber, the activating event will not pause for you dig it out of the little bag in your big bag and rack one while coming up on target.
    Sorry this was so long, but really just wanted to say thank you, to you and your guest for sharing and hopefully helping others. I can say, I use some of the same methods in my practice, challenging beliefs, old habits, reality checking, etc.

    Kyle spitting 100% truth on EDC! I know people who won't carry with one in the pipe..i've told them that very thing "You'd be dead before you could identify the threat, pull, rack, present, and crack off a round". Train....it's what will make you comfortable carrying, clearing cloth, and presenting.

    When he brought up the need to have that conversation with yourself. It reminded me of the time my wife and I took a CCW class. The instructor brought up that very subject. My wife decided she couldn't live with herself having takin a life. So she has the permit, but doesn't carry a firearm. I on the other hand have decided that my or my families life is worth defending at all costs. Even if taking a life ruins me mentally.

      It’s much different between a dot on a pistol and a dot on a rifle. A pistol dot rides back on forth on the slide subjecting it to much more than the recoil impulse from a rifle. A robust proven dot on a pistol is mandatory if you are gonna trust your life with it. A rifle is not nearly as hard on a red dot

It was a gun that I shot as well or better than my 19 and with shield arms steel mags (15 +1) you have G19 capacity. It is the perfect carry gun, however I'm tall and just the way I'm built I conceal the 19 fine and chose old faithful over the newer G48. I will buy another one when I have a chance.......mine did not have a light rail so that was another factor in my letting it go. My next one will be the railed version for sure.

    Yea I really connected when he talked about mental preparation and having "that conversation" with yourself. I always try to get people to understand when topics about conceal carry come up, is that carrying is not just something you do... It's a legit lifestyle if you're honest and serious about it, which you should be, if you aren't then you don't need a firearm on your belt, respectfully. When you have a firearm on you, you're suddenly putting yourself in a position of greater responsibility. That includes preparing yourself mentally that you can kill a person right in front of you, even if it was the right thing to do. Not only physical preparation, but mentally is just as important.

  • @benjamminonabudget85

      So many people in the “gun community” project a macho image and claim they would have no problem shooting someone have never actually considered it. I have honest fear for them that it will end up costing them dearly. Actually working through those thoughts and issues is probably more important than anything above basic marksmanship.
      My time in the military taught me that nobody can ever guarantee how they’ll react when the shooting range becomes a two way affair. But the people that have honestly considered the moral and psychological ramifications tend to struggle less.
