This episode we have our great friend Pinal County AZ. SWAT Team Lt. Chris LePre on to share his expertise leading SWAT operations in homes and small structures and how it applies to citizens defending themselves with carbines in their own homes. Chris also gives some perspective on the July 13th Trump assassination attempt, having supported the Secret Service during a Trump campaign event attended by over 50,000 people.

We're excited to have Kirk Clark on for a second time. We asked Kirk what he considers the shooting skill priorities for the carrying citizen. As expected, his answers were insightful and slightly different than one might assume. You'll get a lot out of this discussion.

Kirk is one of the most accomplished shooters in the open enrollment training circuit. Winning every high-level patch, pin, TacCon championship, and aspiring designation to place a goal on. One of the most coveted: 4 Perfect 125 scores at the Rogers Shooting School Test from concealment - (Bill Rogers himself has 4 125s).
