episode by addressing the elephant in the

4
00:00:11.280 --> 00:00:14.040
room or rather the lack of elephant

5
00:00:14.070 --> 00:00:16.170
in the room and as much as

6
00:00:16.170 --> 00:00:19.710
i don't want to dwell on things

7
00:00:19.710 --> 00:00:20.160
that are you

8
00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:22.170
you know upsetting to myself and keith

9
00:00:22.170 --> 00:00:24.870
i think that people will ask questions

10
00:00:24.870 --> 00:00:26.100
in its you know right for them

11
00:00:26.100 --> 00:00:28.110
to know so for those of you

12
00:00:28.110 --> 00:00:29.460
guys that have been following us for

13
00:00:29.460 --> 00:00:30.810
a long time so he goes follow

14
00:00:30.810 --> 00:00:33.240
keith myself on social media and may

15
00:00:33.240 --> 00:00:34.740
be closer to us than the average

16
00:00:34.740 --> 00:00:37.140
fan we lost jack a couple of

17
00:00:37.140 --> 00:00:40.260
weeks ago it was unexpected and

18
00:00:40.350 --> 00:00:43.470
unbelievably tragic and we are all still

19
00:00:43.470 --> 00:00:46.260
grieving in our own ways about it

20
00:00:46.380 --> 00:00:48.270
and uh yeah i was going to

21
00:00:48.270 --> 00:00:49.890
do a bit about how he found

22
00:00:49.890 --> 00:00:53.520
the yet that he did or honestly

23
00:00:53.520 --> 00:00:56.130
he would appreciate this but he he

24
00:00:56.160 --> 00:00:58.050
he did find the eternal fountain of

25
00:00:58.050 --> 00:01:00.120
golf muslim armies and he just decided

26
00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:00.480
that he would

27
00:01:00.510 --> 00:01:02.760
rather faint planes of existence rather than

28
00:01:02.760 --> 00:01:05.790
go to entering annual meetings where thats

29
00:01:06.570 --> 00:01:09.172
it's it's jack energy and a respect

30
00:01:09.187 --> 00:01:11.310
the fact that he chose jack energy

31
00:01:11.400 --> 00:01:12.450
and is like nah

32
00:01:13.770 --> 00:01:15.180

33
00:01:15.180 --> 00:01:17.370
don't want to go to dallas where

34
00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:19.860
sixty five thousand people that doesn't sound

35
00:01:19.860 --> 00:01:22.530
fun i'm going to die unwashed matted

36
00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:26.520
unwashed masses change planes of existence unwashed

37
00:01:26.520 --> 00:01:29.070
masses of allah much as possible

38
00:01:30.330 --> 00:01:32.550

39
00:01:32.550 --> 00:01:33.660
we haven't done a show for a

40
00:01:33.660 --> 00:01:36.360
few weeks as we you know as

41
00:01:36.360 --> 00:01:38.340
we kind of process this and figured

42
00:01:38.340 --> 00:01:40.800
out what to do with the show

43
00:01:40.800 --> 00:01:43.710
and we decided that you know the

44
00:01:43.710 --> 00:01:45.990
show when not to sound cheesy but

45
00:01:45.990 --> 00:01:47.310
the show should go on you know

46
00:01:47.310 --> 00:01:48.570
keith and i did the show for

47
00:01:48.570 --> 00:01:50.070
a long time before we brought jack

48
00:01:50.070 --> 00:01:50.340

49
00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:54.120
as a third co-host ah and i

50
00:01:54.120 --> 00:01:55.440

52
00:01:57.570 --> 00:01:59.340

82
00:03:00.720 --> 00:03:04.260

97
00:03:36.990 --> 00:03:39.390
an acronym that describes what we're doing

98
00:03:40.170 --> 00:03:41.040

air force which is my favorite one

103
00:03:51.270 --> 00:03:54.720
we have these these teams out of

104
00:03:54.720 --> 00:03:57.270
security courses that are called daggers but

105
00:03:57.270 --> 00:03:59.310

like let's call them daggers and then

110
00:04:09.960 --> 00:04:12.143
they had to like figure that out

111
00:04:12.210 --> 00:04:17.370
alright how do we letters okay cool

112
00:04:18.360 --> 00:04:20.070

00:04:20.070 --> 00:04:22.530
entering annual meetings and we can get

114
00:04:22.530 --> 00:04:24.660
to the taurus rossi heritage launches in

115
00:04:24.660 --> 00:04:26.310
a vex we've you know i've obviously

116
00:04:26.310 --> 00:04:28.650
talked about those a time let's first

117
00:04:28.650 --> 00:04:32.070
talk about the meeting itself and the

118
00:04:32.070 --> 00:04:34.290
fact that there wasn't anybody fucking there

119
00:04:34.530 --> 00:04:37.440
no the attendance was super light the

120
00:04:37.440 --> 00:04:38.160
claimed attack

121
00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:40.530
indents and i will state claimed attendance

122
00:04:40.710 --> 00:04:43.290
was seventy two thousand people and like

123
00:04:43.320 --> 00:04:45.540
look on that convention center's big and

124
00:04:45.660 --> 00:04:49.800
spacey how ever i buy seventy two

125
00:04:49.800 --> 00:04:52.440
k actually cause if you so and

126
00:04:52.440 --> 00:04:54.960
here's why so if we spread it

127
00:04:54.990 --> 00:04:56.850
out alright if we spread out of

128
00:04:56.850 --> 00:04:58.320
three days alright was

129
00:04:58.320 --> 00:04:59.850
so let's think about this in comparison

130
00:04:59.850 --> 00:05:02.220
so last year at indianapolis they had

131
00:05:02.220 --> 00:05:04.890
seventy eight thousand lakes so six game

132
00:05:04.890 --> 00:05:08.820
more and and on saturday in india

133
00:05:08.850 --> 00:05:10.920
like you could nights you couldn't do

134
00:05:10.920 --> 00:05:12.630
a double arm extension and spin in

135
00:05:12.630 --> 00:05:15.300
a circle in my below now we

136
00:05:15.300 --> 00:05:17.760
had a limb fact on saturday which

137
00:05:17.760 --> 00:05:18.480
i'm going to talk

138
00:05:18.480 --> 00:05:21.570
about in this is nonsense please don't

139
00:05:21.570 --> 00:05:24.180
lake make this political or weird but

140
00:05:25.290 --> 00:05:27.030
the president or the former president trump

141
00:05:27.030 --> 00:05:29.730
was was a speaker on saturday and

142
00:05:29.730 --> 00:05:32.160
he was late for his speaking engagement

143
00:05:32.190 --> 00:05:34.050
and then went past six o'clock when

144
00:05:34.050 --> 00:05:36.990
the show floor closes so a significant

145
00:05:37.020 --> 00:05:39.750
chunk of people who came to the

146
00:05:39.750 --> 00:05:42.510
show to see trump were basically trapped

147
00:05:42.540 --> 00:05:45.030
in the shell hall for a significant

148
00:05:45.060 --> 00:05:45.360
chunk

149
00:05:45.450 --> 00:05:48.150
of the day on saturday not being

150
00:05:48.150 --> 00:05:49.680
able to go in and out and

151
00:05:49.680 --> 00:05:52.890
see the actual and see the actual

152
00:05:52.920 --> 00:05:54.630
you know his displays and exhibits and

153
00:05:54.630 --> 00:05:57.450
stuff like that and regardless of how

154
00:05:57.540 --> 00:05:59.790
you feel about president trump cause he's

155
00:05:59.790 --> 00:06:02.760
a contentious figure even in conservative circles

156
00:06:03.180 --> 00:06:04.980
i as a vendor

157
00:06:05.520 --> 00:06:08.190
spiky hate that you know like my

158
00:06:08.190 --> 00:06:11.760
value from the show comes from people

159
00:06:11.760 --> 00:06:15.330
coming to my booth and is not

160
00:06:15.840 --> 00:06:18.660
requested for almost six hours waiting for

161
00:06:18.660 --> 00:06:21.150
somebody to talk yeah so i i

162
00:06:21.150 --> 00:06:23.100
and oppress feel some kind of yeah

163
00:06:23.100 --> 00:06:24.330
i feel some kind of way about

164
00:06:24.330 --> 00:06:25.680
that and i think that

165
00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:29.220
it's is that has a significant effect

166
00:06:29.220 --> 00:06:31.890
on the perception of show attendance being

167
00:06:32.250 --> 00:06:35.160
being low rape like you know i

168
00:06:35.160 --> 00:06:37.380
never or more saturday it was reported

169
00:06:37.380 --> 00:06:40.680
lower than indie but not not decrement

170
00:06:40.680 --> 00:06:40.980
like

171
00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:43.170
a person or so

172
00:06:45.090 --> 00:06:47.550
the other thing that happened was the

173
00:06:47.580 --> 00:06:49.620
shakeup at the top due to the

174
00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:52.057
do the elections we had foyer for

175
00:06:52.057 --> 00:06:54.060
the top spots flip hands

176
00:06:56.130 --> 00:06:59.070
and that's interesting cause you know and

177
00:06:59.070 --> 00:07:01.020
i know and the world at large

178
00:07:02.250 --> 00:07:04.170
in our circles in our spaces at

179
00:07:04.170 --> 00:07:06.690
least knows that the an ira has

180
00:07:06.690 --> 00:07:10.890
kind of then not everybody's favorite organization

181
00:07:10.950 --> 00:07:14.070
for the lesson and i'm really interested

182
00:07:14.070 --> 00:07:16.650
to see where the the the shift

183
00:07:16.650 --> 00:07:20.520
at the top actually takes what we're

184
00:07:20.520 --> 00:07:21.840
going to see for

185
00:07:21.840 --> 00:07:23.340
or you know the direction and twenty

186
00:07:23.340 --> 00:07:25.050
five and twenty six and if the

187
00:07:25.050 --> 00:07:27.270
entrez can gain back momentum and as

188
00:07:27.270 --> 00:07:29.640
the enter a iowa being the actual

189
00:07:30.180 --> 00:07:32.220
eight thousand pound gorilla in the room

190
00:07:32.700 --> 00:07:34.980
and not cede that position to the

191
00:07:34.980 --> 00:07:37.170
other gun organizations that are doing good

192
00:07:37.170 --> 00:07:39.900
work but i would rather have five

193
00:07:40.170 --> 00:07:42.000
eight thousand lb gorillas in the year

194
00:07:42.000 --> 00:07:44.640
i have one that's competing against the

195
00:07:44.640 --> 00:07:47.130
other ones like gimme all can be

196
00:07:47.130 --> 00:07:49.890
all the legal gorillas and even talking

197
00:07:49.890 --> 00:07:53.700
to some of my swamp dwelling d

198
00:07:53.700 --> 00:07:56.070
c scumbag lobbyist friends i love you

199
00:07:56.070 --> 00:07:58.200
guys but you are you are in

200
00:07:58.230 --> 00:08:02.160
the swamp when the ah you know

201
00:08:02.220 --> 00:08:04.410
on the hill the nrl has lost

202
00:08:04.410 --> 00:08:10.260
clout the perception of political weakness you

203
00:08:10.260 --> 00:08:12.870
know malfeasance from the leadership vulnerability to

204
00:08:12.870 --> 00:08:13.170
you

205
00:08:14.409 --> 00:08:16.530
specious lawsuits and all of that have

206
00:08:16.533 --> 00:08:18.180
done a lot to damage the nrl

207
00:08:18.240 --> 00:08:20.700
clout on capitol hill which is bad

208
00:08:20.700 --> 00:08:22.380
for us as a community and we

209
00:08:22.380 --> 00:08:24.360
have made the argument on this show

210
00:08:25.560 --> 00:08:28.080
that the firearms community at large is

211
00:08:28.080 --> 00:08:30.600
better off with a vibrant and iraq

212
00:08:30.900 --> 00:08:32.550
and i think that you know and

213
00:08:32.580 --> 00:08:34.020
i think i speak for all of

214
00:08:34.020 --> 00:08:35.370
us when i say that our hope

215
00:08:35.850 --> 00:08:37.230
is that the entering gets it's shit

216
00:08:37.230 --> 00:08:42.300
together refocuses it's political efforts it's you

217
00:08:42.300 --> 00:08:44.520
know all all all of the potential

218
00:08:44.520 --> 00:08:45.600
revenue and all of that is

219
00:08:45.600 --> 00:08:48.060
into the institute for legislative action into

220
00:08:48.060 --> 00:08:51.450
isla into the political victory finds stops

221
00:08:51.450 --> 00:08:53.520
worrying about so much about culture war

222
00:08:53.520 --> 00:08:55.980
games and focuses on the gun issue

223
00:08:55.980 --> 00:08:58.350
at the national level and becomes you

224
00:08:58.350 --> 00:09:02.280
know that terrifying vote driving influence her

225
00:09:02.280 --> 00:09:04.560
again because you know we all remember

226
00:09:04.560 --> 00:09:05.760
the n r a as

227
00:09:05.790 --> 00:09:07.170
it's you know in the night in

228
00:09:07.200 --> 00:09:08.790
like the peak of it's power during

229
00:09:08.790 --> 00:09:09.840
lake ca

230
00:09:11.100 --> 00:09:14.880
the obama administration when you know obama

231
00:09:14.880 --> 00:09:17.400
with a democratic senate and a democratic

232
00:09:17.400 --> 00:09:19.260
house couldn't pass gun control because the

233
00:09:19.260 --> 00:09:21.060
nrl would come for you know would

234
00:09:21.120 --> 00:09:23.280
would would bet voucher account they would

235
00:09:23.280 --> 00:09:25.320
come for everybody's jobs if you want

236
00:09:25.320 --> 00:09:27.270
to if you wanted the ticker jobs

237
00:09:27.270 --> 00:09:30.240
like nicolas maduro just passed gun control

238
00:09:31.440 --> 00:09:34.320
nowadays they're not seen nearly as that

239
00:09:34.320 --> 00:09:37.260
threat now that the president is a

240
00:09:37.260 --> 00:09:40.680
doddering man who can't remember what room

241
00:09:40.680 --> 00:09:42.660
he's in do we ever do we

242
00:09:42.660 --> 00:09:45.210
actually believe that like he's running like

243
00:09:45.240 --> 00:09:47.400
i ok guys you know i am

244
00:09:47.400 --> 00:09:50.820
not conspiratorially minded right but league

245
00:09:51.390 --> 00:09:54.390
i watched president biden talk and i'm

246
00:09:54.390 --> 00:09:56.340
like i wouldn't give this man the

247
00:09:56.340 --> 00:09:59.310
keys to a can chevy much less

248
00:09:59.640 --> 00:10:02.610
the you know nuclear launch codes like

249
00:10:03.510 --> 00:10:05.910
betty white lie to to throw this

250
00:10:05.910 --> 00:10:07.650
into a political direction for a minute

251
00:10:07.650 --> 00:10:08.460
and then we'll go back to and

252
00:10:08.460 --> 00:10:08.730
ram

253
00:10:10.250 --> 00:10:12.920
it really feels like our election this

254
00:10:12.920 --> 00:10:15.140
year is just an exercise in elder

255
00:10:15.140 --> 00:10:17.480
abuse and i don't want that i

256
00:10:17.600 --> 00:10:19.190
do not like this at all you're

257
00:10:19.190 --> 00:10:20.570
not wrong like for all of the

258
00:10:20.570 --> 00:10:23.840
conversations about how old biden is trump

259
00:10:23.840 --> 00:10:25.670
is almost at the same age as

260
00:10:25.670 --> 00:10:28.490
they just nearly as like their way

261
00:10:28.490 --> 00:10:30.350
past a rp yeah

262
00:10:30.602 --> 00:10:32.000
one hundred per cent like i get

263
00:10:32.750 --> 00:10:34.370
you know why the founding fathers were

264
00:10:34.370 --> 00:10:35.180
like hey you have to be at

265
00:10:35.180 --> 00:10:36.860
least thirty five to be a senator

266
00:10:36.860 --> 00:10:38.510
or president because at the time thirty

267
00:10:38.510 --> 00:10:40.130
five was like a well a well

268
00:10:40.130 --> 00:10:43.880
aged adult man but we need to

269
00:10:43.880 --> 00:10:45.680
put like an upper cap on that

270
00:10:45.680 --> 00:10:47.120
because i don't think if you were

271
00:10:47.120 --> 00:10:50.300
born before the korean war

272
00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:52.250
you should be allowed to set policy

273
00:10:52.250 --> 00:10:54.350
about the internet but that son i'm

274
00:10:54.350 --> 00:10:55.970
really i'm really a fan of the

275
00:10:55.970 --> 00:10:58.370
concept that if you can collect social

276
00:10:58.370 --> 00:11:00.440
security that's your last term like the

277
00:11:00.440 --> 00:11:03.320
arab region but like you can collect

278
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:05.060
social security that's it you're done

279
00:11:06.170 --> 00:11:08.540
retirement age by lockwood but that's it

280
00:11:08.600 --> 00:11:09.970
but you know this funny thing right

281
00:11:09.980 --> 00:11:12.110
the federal service mandates that right like

282
00:11:12.170 --> 00:11:14.450
in the air force i have to

283
00:11:14.450 --> 00:11:18.380
retire when i am fifty nine years

284
00:11:18.380 --> 00:11:19.700
and three hundred and sixty four days

285
00:11:19.700 --> 00:11:21.740
old i cannot serve a gay past

286
00:11:21.740 --> 00:11:24.980
that without going through a complicated waiver

287
00:11:24.980 --> 00:11:26.330
process and a bunch of others

288
00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:27.710
and i understand that the military has

289
00:11:27.710 --> 00:11:29.750
physical requirements that you know you don't

290
00:11:29.750 --> 00:11:32.990
see in the senate but lake lawyers

291
00:11:33.380 --> 00:11:35.870
if you're if you're sixty the branch

292
00:11:36.170 --> 00:11:38.750
you're probably flying a desk that yeah

293
00:11:38.780 --> 00:11:41.180
one hundred percent but there's also a

294
00:11:41.180 --> 00:11:42.380
you know but if your pick sixty

295
00:11:42.380 --> 00:11:44.990
five right when you retire from your

296
00:11:44.990 --> 00:11:46.490
job you know you are if you're

297
00:11:46.490 --> 00:11:48.290
you're sixty four if you join the

298
00:11:48.290 --> 00:11:50.450
police force at three years old and

299
00:11:50.450 --> 00:11:51.919
you did thirty years and retire your

300
00:11:51.919 --> 00:11:54.020
sixty right like once you're sixty five

301
00:11:54.020 --> 00:11:55.910
i'm not saying that your mental capacity

302
00:11:55.910 --> 00:11:58.160
has degraded past the point of usefulness

303
00:11:58.370 --> 00:12:00.410
but also like if you can't be

304
00:12:00.410 --> 00:12:01.850
an f b i agent cause the

305
00:12:01.850 --> 00:12:03.350
age of sixty five maybe you shouldn't

306
00:12:03.350 --> 00:12:06.410
be a senator just i'm just sad

307
00:12:06.680 --> 00:12:10.040
the allegation as that those people both

308
00:12:10.070 --> 00:12:13.790
make very serious decisions the allegation is

309
00:12:13.790 --> 00:12:15.230
those people are there to make very

310
00:12:15.230 --> 00:12:17.570
serious decision so why do we disallow

311
00:12:17.570 --> 00:12:19.580
it on one hand we have like

312
00:12:19.640 --> 00:12:22.700
arrests and criminal prosecution but we're like

313
00:12:22.910 --> 00:12:25.790
nah it's fine you're ninety eight it

314
00:12:25.790 --> 00:12:26.810
should be all right

315
00:12:27.440 --> 00:12:28.970
why do we say that a federal

316
00:12:28.970 --> 00:12:31.520
agent at sixty five no longer you

317
00:12:31.520 --> 00:12:33.710
know is capable of making a life

318
00:12:33.710 --> 00:12:35.630
or death to life or death decisions

319
00:12:35.630 --> 00:12:37.340
with a handgun but we say that

320
00:12:37.340 --> 00:12:39.080
a senator is capable of or the

321
00:12:39.080 --> 00:12:40.760
president is capable of making life or

322
00:12:40.760 --> 00:12:43.040
death death decisions for thousands of people

323
00:12:43.670 --> 00:12:45.350
i mean it's it's weird to me

324
00:12:45.500 --> 00:12:46.970
i'm young maybe let him say

325
00:12:46.970 --> 00:12:49.490
xt will have a different opinion but

326
00:12:49.550 --> 00:12:51.350
i've also never wanted to be a

327
00:12:51.350 --> 00:12:53.990
senator or the president other than like

328
00:12:53.990 --> 00:12:54.860
i didn't when i was eight i

329
00:12:54.860 --> 00:12:55.760
was like it'd be cool to be

330
00:12:55.760 --> 00:12:57.350
the president so i could nuke russia

331
00:12:57.380 --> 00:12:59.960
like that was you know my we

332
00:12:59.960 --> 00:13:01.730
all thought that cause yeah rick

333
00:13:03.710 --> 00:13:05.053
when we were eight and russia was

334
00:13:05.150 --> 00:13:06.770
hang on was russia still the soviet

335
00:13:06.770 --> 00:13:08.210
union when i was eight yeah nineteen

336
00:13:08.210 --> 00:13:09.890
ninety the war hadn't fallen yet or

337
00:13:10.040 --> 00:13:11.900
nineteen ninety that it was ninety two

338
00:13:11.900 --> 00:13:13.460
i think when the soviet union broke

339
00:13:13.460 --> 00:13:15.560
up yeah i think ninety two like

340
00:13:15.560 --> 00:13:16.370
nineteen

341
00:13:17.510 --> 00:13:18.680
i'd have to look back at our

342
00:13:19.220 --> 00:13:20.480
it's crazy to me that kids that

343
00:13:20.480 --> 00:13:24.020
i serve with i have never experienced

344
00:13:24.020 --> 00:13:25.820
the soviet union like never in their

345
00:13:25.820 --> 00:13:27.650

352
00:13:44.780 --> 00:13:46.280
not only are some of those people

353
00:13:46.280 --> 00:13:48.110
in the military some of those are

354
00:13:48.800 --> 00:13:51.200
getting through their first enlistment term and

355
00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:52.790
they're starting to enter the nc ohc

357
00:13:54.980 --> 00:13:56.660
old enough to drink if you were

anyway this old man ran the most

363
00:14:07.340 --> 00:14:09.830
offensive thing to say grocery shopping is

364

no liquor inch

365
00:14:12.170 --> 00:14:12.560

368
00:14:17.390 --> 00:14:18.170

starts with a pew or a i

372
00:14:22.880 --> 00:14:24.860
saw a t-shirt that cracked me up

373
00:14:25.190 --> 00:14:27.125
it said it had a like a

374
00:14:27.170 --> 00:14:29.210
screencap was a digital screen cap of

375
00:14:29.210 --> 00:14:31.280
like the oregon trail graphics and it

380
00:14:40.430 --> 00:14:43.340
raid rico but ok let's actually go

381
00:14:43.340 --> 00:14:45.080
back to entering annual leagues here for

382
00:14:45.080 --> 00:14:47.780
a minute so i i got out

383
00:14:47.780 --> 00:14:49.400
of the booth a little bit i

384
00:14:49.400 --> 00:14:51.380
walked around and i'll talk about the

385
00:14:51.380 --> 00:14:53.210
moat the coolest thing that i saw

386
00:14:53.420 --> 00:14:56.300
while walking around the show floor and

387
00:14:56.300 --> 00:14:58.490
that was the langdon tactical boot bitch

388
00:14:58.490 --> 00:15:01.730
because holy shit you know the homies

389
00:15:01.730 --> 00:15:04.730
and ltt are killing right like this

390
00:15:04.730 --> 00:15:06.590
was their first leg big time you

391
00:15:06.590 --> 00:15:08.210
know big boys show and they had

392
00:15:08.240 --> 00:15:10.820
an amazing booth display i was fully

393
00:15:10.820 --> 00:15:11.990
expecting it to be one of those

394
00:15:11.990 --> 00:15:15.226
like fables with a tablecloth

395
00:15:16.760 --> 00:15:19.250
your first one you you ten when

396
00:15:19.250 --> 00:15:20.360
it's your first one or is your

397
00:15:20.390 --> 00:15:21.950
early ones you tend to go cheap

398
00:15:21.950 --> 00:15:25.160
because it isn't cheap like don't go

399
00:15:25.160 --> 00:15:26.870
in on a booth is not cheap

400
00:15:26.900 --> 00:15:29.000
at all since i've done i've done

401
00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:31.040
the tablecloth banner you know set up

402
00:15:31.040 --> 00:15:33.726
myself or other other companies and for

403
00:15:33.726 --> 00:15:34.970
the fact that i walked into that

404
00:15:34.970 --> 00:15:36.080
and it was like like a big

405
00:15:36.080 --> 00:15:36.650
kid boy

406
00:15:36.650 --> 00:15:37.760
a kid booth and i'm like this

407
00:15:37.760 --> 00:15:39.620
looks good as fuck guys like it

408
00:15:39.620 --> 00:15:41.540
was so cool to see because you

409
00:15:41.540 --> 00:15:43.790
know i've known earnest and amy for

410
00:15:44.390 --> 00:15:49.880
forever now and they're just watching the

411
00:15:50.120 --> 00:15:52.370
watching that the progression of l t

412
00:15:52.370 --> 00:15:55.250
t from where a training company to

413
00:15:55.520 --> 00:15:56.810
where a training company that makes beer

414
00:15:56.810 --> 00:15:58.970
read part two we make some of

415
00:15:58.970 --> 00:16:01.190
the best guns on the market and

416
00:16:01.190 --> 00:16:02.660
if you buy an off the rack

417
00:16:02.660 --> 00:16:05.780
twenty eleven instead of a ltt ninety

418
00:16:05.780 --> 00:16:08.360
two you're probably dumb but it's been

419
00:16:08.420 --> 00:16:10.010
fantastic and it is it was so

420
00:16:10.010 --> 00:16:12.500
cool to see that development for those

421
00:16:12.500 --> 00:16:13.550
guys that was really

422
00:16:14.780 --> 00:16:16.760
you know i don't it's not that

423
00:16:16.760 --> 00:16:18.830
i don't pay attention to other brands

424
00:16:18.830 --> 00:16:20.690
it's that i have such limited bandwidth

425
00:16:20.690 --> 00:16:23.000
to observe what's going on that unless

426
00:16:23.000 --> 00:16:25.130
somebody throws down a really big sexy

427
00:16:25.130 --> 00:16:28.250
launch i probably don't notice it speaking

428
00:16:28.250 --> 00:16:30.230
of that i am going to give

429
00:16:30.230 --> 00:16:33.650
my favorite product on the floor to

430
00:16:33.650 --> 00:16:34.280
tourists

431
00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:36.050
that's good

432
00:16:37.160 --> 00:16:38.150
like that

433
00:16:39.500 --> 00:16:41.030
it would be silly for caleb to

434
00:16:41.030 --> 00:16:44.000
say that because it's less silly for

435
00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:45.950
me even though i also work for

436
00:16:45.980 --> 00:16:47.720
tourists in a marketing capacity but i

437
00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:49.220
worked for a ton of other people

438
00:16:49.250 --> 00:16:51.530
in a market that might be why

439
00:16:51.530 --> 00:16:53.510
whole-body out there tired of july or

440
00:16:53.510 --> 00:16:56.210
a precision in bear mas mossberg in

441
00:16:56.210 --> 00:16:57.290
there like there are a bunch of

442
00:16:57.290 --> 00:16:58.730
people who pay me to move

443
00:16:58.730 --> 00:17:00.530
look at their stuff but none of

444
00:17:00.530 --> 00:17:02.060
them pay me enough to lie about

445
00:17:02.060 --> 00:17:04.310
how cool it is though nobody has

446
00:17:04.310 --> 00:17:06.050
cut me that check yet if you

447
00:17:06.050 --> 00:17:07.852
want to i am totally for sale

448
00:17:07.852 --> 00:17:10.730
you're here's my email address you're not

449
00:17:10.730 --> 00:17:12.770
going to like that return like the

450
00:17:12.770 --> 00:17:14.450
aura wise to be awful but i

451
00:17:14.450 --> 00:17:17.120
will do it i will mow is

452
00:17:19.430 --> 00:17:21.740
we are open to shill as always

453
00:17:21.830 --> 00:17:23.450
but i will give it i will

454
00:17:23.450 --> 00:17:26.060
give it to a tourist heritage rossi

455
00:17:26.090 --> 00:17:29.210
for not one but two superb revolver

456
00:17:29.210 --> 00:17:32.120
launches the roscoe was one of the

457
00:17:32.120 --> 00:17:35.000
coolest guns to come out and i

458
00:17:35.000 --> 00:17:38.330
saw so many noir and class

459
00:17:38.330 --> 00:17:41.270
basic gangster memes just blow around after

460
00:17:41.270 --> 00:17:44.210
that thing launched it was delightful on

461
00:17:44.210 --> 00:17:45.470
top of that it's only two ninety

462
00:17:45.470 --> 00:17:47.810
nine and has yet to like it's

463
00:17:47.840 --> 00:17:50.660
accessible it feels good really cool and

464
00:17:50.660 --> 00:17:51.500
then i have to give it to

465
00:17:51.500 --> 00:17:53.750
the six ninety two and i hope

466
00:17:53.810 --> 00:17:56.720
that torres continues the slow trend of

467
00:17:56.750 --> 00:17:58.490
adding rounds to nine mil

468
00:17:58.490 --> 00:18:00.440
demeter three fifty seven frames until we

469
00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:02.720
have an absurdly like looney tunes size

470
00:18:02.721 --> 00:18:04.520
revolver that's like two overheads

471
00:18:05.480 --> 00:18:07.970
niehaus so i was thinking about this

472
00:18:07.970 --> 00:18:10.490
the other day and so we make

473
00:18:10.730 --> 00:18:13.610
the raging hunter in five hundred man

474
00:18:13.639 --> 00:18:16.250
great and five shot five hundred five

475
00:18:16.250 --> 00:18:18.560
hundred mag though and

476
00:18:19.640 --> 00:18:23.480
we could i i wonder any moon

477
00:18:23.480 --> 00:18:27.230
clip configuration how many rounds of nine

478
00:18:27.230 --> 00:18:29.900
millimetre i could shoehorn into a cylinder

479
00:18:29.900 --> 00:18:32.840
that size because my brain tells me

480
00:18:33.200 --> 00:18:35.180
it's a lot like it's a lot

481
00:18:35.210 --> 00:18:37.580
a lot i feel like we could

482
00:18:37.700 --> 00:18:39.770
i i don't want to say

483
00:18:39.800 --> 00:18:42.320
ten but i feel like ten is

484
00:18:42.320 --> 00:18:44.480
on the table you know like i

485
00:18:44.660 --> 00:18:46.880
feel like we can do ten haha

486
00:18:47.150 --> 00:18:49.460
but an imac then that thought just

487
00:18:49.460 --> 00:18:52.460
makes me happy when them a wide

488
00:18:52.640 --> 00:18:54.170
okay so actually as i think about

489
00:18:54.170 --> 00:18:56.900
this one of the limb facts for

490
00:18:58.040 --> 00:19:02.060
increase capacity in moon clip revolvers is

491
00:19:02.360 --> 00:19:05.900
ah prong spacing great so because we

492
00:19:05.900 --> 00:19:08.600
everybody uses it's funny that we call

493
00:19:08.603 --> 00:19:09.650
them the moon clips and most of

494
00:19:09.650 --> 00:19:10.910
them are more like a star shade

495
00:19:11.270 --> 00:19:13.520
and because of the star shape that

496
00:19:13.520 --> 00:19:16.400
they use there's a certain years diameter

497
00:19:16.400 --> 00:19:18.050
restrictions that are inherent to that but

498
00:19:18.050 --> 00:19:18.170
i

499
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:19.280
just had this idea while i was

500
00:19:19.280 --> 00:19:20.660
sitting here what if we did an

501
00:19:20.720 --> 00:19:23.480
inverse one where it's a circle with

502
00:19:23.480 --> 00:19:25.340
the prongs on the inside and he

503
00:19:25.430 --> 00:19:26.900
clicked the rounds into it like that

504
00:19:26.900 --> 00:19:30.020
i bet i could get more rounds

505
00:19:30.020 --> 00:19:30.770
into that

506
00:19:31.880 --> 00:19:34.910
because of the the changes shape but

507
00:19:35.090 --> 00:19:36.650
this is just this is pie in

508
00:19:36.650 --> 00:19:40.700
the sky stuff and that is certainly

509
00:19:40.760 --> 00:19:43.130
a kind of a skunks work type

510
00:19:43.130 --> 00:19:45.200
item that an observer rug cause that

511
00:19:45.200 --> 00:19:46.190
sounds fun

512
00:19:46.730 --> 00:19:48.830
the oil i will be happily shooting

513
00:19:48.830 --> 00:19:51.110
the absolute piss out of that six

514
00:19:51.110 --> 00:19:53.780
ninety two in the in my local

515
00:19:53.780 --> 00:19:57.050
classes here i have people who still

516
00:19:57.050 --> 00:19:58.940
like revolvers and they won't shoot revolvers

517
00:19:59.240 --> 00:20:00.980
and i much prefer handing them a

518
00:20:00.980 --> 00:20:02.990
revolver with really nice sights are really

519
00:20:02.990 --> 00:20:04.790
nice trigger that's very comfortable for them

520
00:20:04.790 --> 00:20:06.890
to shoot instead of some of the

521
00:20:06.890 --> 00:20:09.230
the little thirty eight and three fifty

522
00:20:09.230 --> 00:20:11.210
seven that really don't have like their

523
00:20:11.215 --> 00:20:13.190
convenient carry guns and there's something you

524
00:20:13.190 --> 00:20:15.980
should consider after learning to shoot a

525
00:20:15.980 --> 00:20:18.230
little bit we're not a gun that

526
00:20:18.230 --> 00:20:19.880
slight nice to shoot you should learn

527
00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:22.610
to shoot since you're willing to cooling

528
00:20:23.030 --> 00:20:25.040
the cooling about six ninety two that

529
00:20:25.040 --> 00:20:26.261
a lot of people don't get so

530
00:20:26.269 --> 00:20:27.020
first time it's actually

531
00:20:27.632 --> 00:20:29.237
up forever we've had it as the

532
00:20:29.237 --> 00:20:31.580
six mandy two tracker for a really

533
00:20:31.580 --> 00:20:35.540
really long time and i think bumping

534
00:20:35.540 --> 00:20:37.190
it up to an executive grade is

535
00:20:37.190 --> 00:20:39.530
absolutely the right call because the gun

536
00:20:39.530 --> 00:20:42.020
really benefits from that trigger job from

537
00:20:42.020 --> 00:20:44.750
the executive great touches but the other

538
00:20:44.750 --> 00:20:47.570
thing that makes it cool is

539
00:20:47.690 --> 00:20:50.240
that it is perfect so let's say

540
00:20:50.240 --> 00:20:52.520
you have you know you've got thirty

541
00:20:52.520 --> 00:20:55.010
six nine millimeter striker fired pistols you've

542
00:20:55.010 --> 00:20:59.074
got a twenty eleven you've got a

543
00:20:59.240 --> 00:21:01.190
ninety a beretta ninety aaron ltt ninety

544
00:21:01.190 --> 00:21:03.020
two you have all of these things

545
00:21:03.020 --> 00:21:04.220
right and you're like i want to

546
00:21:04.220 --> 00:21:06.620
get a revolver but i only have

547
00:21:06.620 --> 00:21:07.820
nine millimeter ammo

548
00:21:07.850 --> 00:21:09.410
in my house because that's all i've

549
00:21:09.410 --> 00:21:10.880
ever bought i don't want to have

550
00:21:10.880 --> 00:21:14.300
to go invest in thirty eight special

551
00:21:14.300 --> 00:21:16.220
or three fifty seven magnum or whatnot

552
00:21:16.220 --> 00:21:18.140
for that you'd go buy a six

553
00:21:18.140 --> 00:21:20.180
ninety two it comes with three stellar

554
00:21:20.180 --> 00:21:21.530
clips which is what we call them

555
00:21:21.530 --> 00:21:23.030
at no point have i ever said

556
00:21:23.030 --> 00:21:25.040
that i call the moon cliffs comes

557
00:21:25.040 --> 00:21:26.660
with three moon clips in the box

558
00:21:26.750 --> 00:21:27.950
you can buy mormon cliffs on

559
00:21:27.980 --> 00:21:30.740
shop torres dot com and you're you're

560
00:21:30.740 --> 00:21:32.660
good to go you know will you

561
00:21:32.660 --> 00:21:35.240
see degraded accuracy with nine mil rounds

562
00:21:35.240 --> 00:21:38.030
verse thirty eight yeah however it's not

563
00:21:38.030 --> 00:21:40.100
that significantly degraded because i shot my

564
00:21:40.100 --> 00:21:41.330
six ninety two which is just a

565
00:21:41.330 --> 00:21:43.790
tracker model at twenty five yards off

566
00:21:43.790 --> 00:21:45.200
a bag and i shooting four inch

567
00:21:45.208 --> 00:21:46.760
groups with the gun with nine no

568
00:21:46.760 --> 00:21:48.110
rats cannot

569
00:21:48.170 --> 00:21:49.430
one day it would probably have shot

570
00:21:49.430 --> 00:21:51.260
two inch groups with thirty eight special

571
00:21:51.350 --> 00:21:54.110
shirt yet these four inches at twenty

572
00:21:54.110 --> 00:21:56.000
five yards more than accurate enough for

573
00:21:56.000 --> 00:21:57.860
most people yes it is so chill

574
00:21:57.860 --> 00:21:59.890
on the like no no no the

575
00:21:59.900 --> 00:22:03.890
bird wilder and then that's that's plenty

576
00:22:03.890 --> 00:22:05.300
to get what you need to do

577
00:22:05.390 --> 00:22:07.640
in a competitive sensor yeah we're in

578
00:22:07.640 --> 00:22:08.300
the in just join

579
00:22:08.300 --> 00:22:10.070
general shootings you wish you'd still challenge

580
00:22:10.070 --> 00:22:11.660
with vision when his guns can't put

581
00:22:11.660 --> 00:22:13.610
a four inch group at twenty five

582
00:22:13.610 --> 00:22:17.420
yards yeah i am i am going

583
00:22:17.420 --> 00:22:18.590
to do i am going to throw

584
00:22:18.590 --> 00:22:20.000
a little shade here in it's not

585
00:22:20.540 --> 00:22:22.940
i don't want people to think that

586
00:22:22.940 --> 00:22:25.400
this is me

587
00:22:26.771 --> 00:22:27.770
no know i am going to throw

588
00:22:27.770 --> 00:22:28.700
a little bit of shade at smith

589
00:22:28.700 --> 00:22:30.170
and wesson and it's not because i'm

590
00:22:30.170 --> 00:22:33.260
mad at smith i have a tremendous

591
00:22:33.260 --> 00:22:34.910
amount of respect for smith and wesson

592
00:22:35.240 --> 00:22:37.790
i how many smith and wesson revolvers

593
00:22:37.820 --> 00:22:39.470
and i love them i think they're

594
00:22:39.470 --> 00:22:42.680
fantastic and i also have a tremendous

595
00:22:42.680 --> 00:22:44.270
amount of respect for jerry mitchell ek

596
00:22:44.300 --> 00:22:46.310
and love him and think he's fantastic

597
00:22:46.700 --> 00:22:48.710
but if i had to pick the

598
00:22:48.710 --> 00:22:51.830
most disappointing thing at entering annual meetings

599
00:22:52.130 --> 00:22:55.162
it's the new jury special edition performance

600
00:22:55.162 --> 00:22:57.680
center gun and here's why i need

601
00:22:57.680 --> 00:22:59.870
you guys to hear me out three

602
00:22:59.870 --> 00:23:03.620
reasons first off the price point it's

603
00:23:03.620 --> 00:23:06.110
thirty five hundred dollars that's a lot

604
00:23:06.110 --> 00:23:06.620
of money

605
00:23:06.860 --> 00:23:08.660
yeah it's it's a huge amount of

606
00:23:08.660 --> 00:23:10.640
money and i understand msrp vs street

607
00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:14.330
price but the price point then the

608
00:23:14.330 --> 00:23:15.920
street price on a thirty five hundred

609
00:23:15.920 --> 00:23:18.050
dollar don is not bad now that

610
00:23:18.050 --> 00:23:20.960
yeah it's maybe three grand yeah price

611
00:23:20.960 --> 00:23:23.473
point and then the trigger so i

612
00:23:23.480 --> 00:23:24.650
should went to the booth and dry

613
00:23:24.650 --> 00:23:27.020
fired it and go

614
00:23:27.020 --> 00:23:29.690
guns at shows tend to have better

615
00:23:29.690 --> 00:23:31.640
triggers than the actual ones that you

616
00:23:31.640 --> 00:23:33.350
buy because by the time they hit

617
00:23:33.350 --> 00:23:34.910
the show floor they've been dry fired

618
00:23:34.910 --> 00:23:36.560
a gazillion times and the dry fired

619
00:23:36.560 --> 00:23:37.460
a bunch more by a bunch of

620
00:23:37.460 --> 00:23:39.410
people so all those wear parts have

621
00:23:39.410 --> 00:23:40.310
worn in

622
00:23:41.990 --> 00:23:44.390
it doesn't have a good trigger the

623
00:23:44.390 --> 00:23:47.900
trigger is the same as so many

624
00:23:47.900 --> 00:23:49.190
years ago some you guys remember i

625
00:23:49.190 --> 00:23:50.900
bought a five eighty six l comp

626
00:23:51.740 --> 00:23:54.620
performance center gone and i had to

627
00:23:54.620 --> 00:23:56.030
do an action job because the factory

628
00:23:56.030 --> 00:23:58.460
trigger was like thirteen and a half

629
00:23:58.460 --> 00:23:59.803
pounds or some crazy number and it

630
00:23:59.807 --> 00:24:01.070
was gritty and stacked

631
00:24:01.580 --> 00:24:04.160
and i dry fired the jerry special

632
00:24:04.160 --> 00:24:06.710
edition and the trigger was gritty and

633
00:24:06.710 --> 00:24:08.270
it stacked and it was heavy in

634
00:24:08.270 --> 00:24:10.520
the fact that like if that's actually

635
00:24:10.520 --> 00:24:14.600
representative of the production guns the fact

636
00:24:14.600 --> 00:24:15.710
that you are going to go pay

637
00:24:15.710 --> 00:24:17.120
a third thirty five hundred dollars for

638
00:24:17.120 --> 00:24:19.310
this gun and it still needs two

639
00:24:19.310 --> 00:24:21.140
hundred and fifty dollars of apex parts

640
00:24:21.140 --> 00:24:21.740
to give it a good show

641
00:24:21.740 --> 00:24:24.830
trigger pull was fuckin insulted i remember

642
00:24:24.830 --> 00:24:27.530
when performance center actually meant something and

643
00:24:27.530 --> 00:24:29.150
now it's just a logo that they

644
00:24:29.150 --> 00:24:30.140
stick on a gun to make it

645
00:24:30.140 --> 00:24:32.960
cost more and that is upsetting and

646
00:24:32.960 --> 00:24:34.910
frustrating to me as someone who really

647
00:24:34.910 --> 00:24:38.360
cares about revolvers and high quality revolvers

648
00:24:39.080 --> 00:24:41.510
the fact that performance center basically just

649
00:24:41.510 --> 00:24:41.840
means it

650
00:24:41.900 --> 00:24:44.240
costs more is kind of irritating it

651
00:24:44.810 --> 00:24:46.970
it's very irritating because it it used

652
00:24:46.970 --> 00:24:48.560
to feel like it meant something but

653
00:24:48.560 --> 00:24:51.950
i shared it when when torres launched

654
00:24:51.950 --> 00:24:54.920
the executive grid which got to got

655
00:24:54.920 --> 00:24:58.820
a little bit of shiism shenanigans online

656
00:24:58.820 --> 00:25:00.320
click as as it should of course

657
00:25:00.458 --> 00:25:02.060
all the old torres was

658
00:25:02.060 --> 00:25:04.460
in fact the old porous so when

659
00:25:04.460 --> 00:25:07.340
they launched the executive grade they even

660
00:25:07.340 --> 00:25:10.070
i was like hmm what's what's this

661
00:25:10.070 --> 00:25:12.170
coming down but then you started putting

662
00:25:12.170 --> 00:25:15.020
hands on the executive grade actions and

663
00:25:15.020 --> 00:25:18.110
triggers and they're really nice coming out

664
00:25:18.110 --> 00:25:20.270
of the factor it's absolutely well tuned

665
00:25:20.270 --> 00:25:22.100
gun coming straight out of the box

666
00:25:22.460 --> 00:25:24.590
that there's no gimmick or frill to

667
00:25:24.590 --> 00:25:26.990
that it's just a nice revolver and

668
00:25:26.990 --> 00:25:30.380
then i equivalently i would equivocal you

669
00:25:30.410 --> 00:25:32.090
go over to a smith and wesson

670
00:25:32.090 --> 00:25:34.790
product like my my favorite one over

671
00:25:34.790 --> 00:25:36.200
there's the r eight i love the

672
00:25:36.200 --> 00:25:38.750
earth for arts degree yup i love

673
00:25:38.750 --> 00:25:40.760
br eight revolver but then i put

674
00:25:40.850 --> 00:25:42.140
in i dry fire that

675
00:25:42.920 --> 00:25:44.810
and the trigger just isn't as nuts

676
00:25:45.200 --> 00:25:47.030
right so if i if i switch

677
00:25:47.030 --> 00:25:48.770
out the one part on the executive

678
00:25:48.770 --> 00:25:50.420
grade six ninety two that i would

679
00:25:50.660 --> 00:25:52.130
if i want to shoot at seriously

680
00:25:52.130 --> 00:25:54.470
the grips but a serious shooting grip

681
00:25:54.470 --> 00:25:56.210
on it instead of the very lovely

682
00:25:56.450 --> 00:25:58.820
but a little too slippery a decorative

683
00:25:58.820 --> 00:26:01.271
groups that comes with and if i

684
00:26:01.280 --> 00:26:02.540
were to re

685
00:26:02.540 --> 00:26:06.650
tip for an actual shooting grip and

686
00:26:06.770 --> 00:26:08.600
that there would still be a serious

687
00:26:08.600 --> 00:26:12.470
deficiency between the r aids trigger and

688
00:26:12.470 --> 00:26:14.150
the six ninety tos or most of

689
00:26:14.150 --> 00:26:17.930
the executive grade lines trigger sources just

690
00:26:17.930 --> 00:26:20.630
producing such a nice factory trigger in

691
00:26:20.630 --> 00:26:22.340
the eg models that

692
00:26:23.030 --> 00:26:24.710
it's hard to say like no i

693
00:26:24.710 --> 00:26:27.770
should definitely spend the eleven hundred and

694
00:26:27.860 --> 00:26:30.485
twelve hundred fifteen hundred two thousand dollars

695
00:26:30.500 --> 00:26:36.290
a woman more so that the here's

696
00:26:36.290 --> 00:26:39.140
actual consumer purchasing advice that has nothing

697
00:26:39.140 --> 00:26:40.130
to do with the shirt that i'm

698
00:26:40.130 --> 00:26:42.440
wearing if you would like a ported

699
00:26:42.440 --> 00:26:42.860
nine

700
00:26:42.860 --> 00:26:46.580
millimeter revolver go by the tourists six

701
00:26:46.580 --> 00:26:48.980
ninety two executive grade because msrp on

702
00:26:48.980 --> 00:26:51.410
that is eleven hundred dollars the trigger

703
00:26:51.410 --> 00:26:52.700
is better out of the box than

704
00:26:52.700 --> 00:26:52.940
any

705
00:26:54.380 --> 00:26:56.090
this is not a controversial statement as

706
00:26:56.098 --> 00:26:57.350
the fact the trigger on the six

707
00:26:57.350 --> 00:26:58.850
ninety two executive grade is better than

708
00:26:58.850 --> 00:27:00.590
any factory tribute currently being produced by

709
00:27:00.590 --> 00:27:02.120
smith wesson that's a that is a

710
00:27:02.120 --> 00:27:03.860
statement of fact that is a that

711
00:27:03.860 --> 00:27:06.110
is an absolute statement of fact i've

712
00:27:06.110 --> 00:27:09.050
tried the vast majority of their tried

713
00:27:09.142 --> 00:27:11.722
the vast majority of their production and

714
00:27:11.722 --> 00:27:13.370
their performance center guns that they've had

715
00:27:13.370 --> 00:27:14.270
on display at

716
00:27:14.330 --> 00:27:16.490
shows so they should be the best

717
00:27:16.520 --> 00:27:19.220
of the best right now the gs

718
00:27:19.220 --> 00:27:21.770
are better that trigger is better it's

719
00:27:21.770 --> 00:27:24.170
fantastic so if you want a nine

720
00:27:24.170 --> 00:27:26.949
millimeter revolver that looks cool is portage

721
00:27:26.949 --> 00:27:28.730
to help reduce you know the thunderous

722
00:27:28.730 --> 00:27:30.080
recoil of nine mil

723
00:27:31.130 --> 00:27:32.990
and you know all of that said

724
00:27:33.080 --> 00:27:34.460
go buy a six ninety two executive

725
00:27:34.460 --> 00:27:36.560
great msrp is eleven hundred bucks then

726
00:27:36.560 --> 00:27:37.580
if you want to put an rmr

727
00:27:37.580 --> 00:27:38.930
on it go to all chin customs

728
00:27:38.930 --> 00:27:41.000
just google all chin customs and buy

729
00:27:41.000 --> 00:27:43.280
their tourist tracker rmr mount and you're

730
00:27:43.280 --> 00:27:45.470
set you're done it easy gag so

731
00:27:45.470 --> 00:27:48.380
dues that it makes more sense to

732
00:27:48.380 --> 00:27:51.170
me then spending whatever

733
00:27:51.260 --> 00:27:53.870
three grand on thirty five hundred on

734
00:27:53.870 --> 00:27:56.239
the jerry edition and that's that's not

735
00:27:56.300 --> 00:27:57.950
again if you are a smith and

736
00:27:57.950 --> 00:27:59.480
wesson collector and you get your limited

737
00:27:59.480 --> 00:28:01.730
editions and you're like woo then friggin

738
00:28:01.730 --> 00:28:03.260
go do that make yourself happy dude

739
00:28:03.260 --> 00:28:05.660
but this is this is not to

740
00:28:05.660 --> 00:28:07.940
show throw any shade at you buy

741
00:28:07.940 --> 00:28:09.650
a gun because you want the gun

742
00:28:09.680 --> 00:28:11.420
yeah no you are off

743
00:28:11.420 --> 00:28:13.280
always allowed to buy a gun just

744
00:28:13.280 --> 00:28:15.920
because you want that gun end of

745
00:28:15.920 --> 00:28:17.900
reason we don't need anything extra you

746
00:28:17.900 --> 00:28:19.550
don't need to justify it beyond that

747
00:28:19.550 --> 00:28:21.620
to us but if you're talking objective

748
00:28:21.620 --> 00:28:22.820
measures of performance

749
00:28:25.250 --> 00:28:27.734
that he that's the conversation it it

750
00:28:27.760 --> 00:28:30.440
really is and again i love smith

751
00:28:30.440 --> 00:28:33.020
and wesson revolvers i have done some

752
00:28:33.140 --> 00:28:37.460
very high level you know performance shooting

753
00:28:37.460 --> 00:28:40.040
feats with smith and wesson revolvers and

754
00:28:40.040 --> 00:28:41.300
i don't want people to think that

755
00:28:41.330 --> 00:28:44.060
this is me being down on sniff

756
00:28:44.090 --> 00:28:46.130
as a company or talking trash or

757
00:28:46.130 --> 00:28:49.070
anything like that it's just it's disappointing

758
00:28:49.820 --> 00:28:52.940
to see you know that in the

759
00:28:52.940 --> 00:28:54.860
current product that they're producing is not

760
00:28:54.860 --> 00:28:56.720
in my opinion up to the smith

761
00:28:56.720 --> 00:28:57.980
and wesson old oh yeah and the

762
00:28:57.980 --> 00:28:59.780
third reason i'm mad at the thirty

763
00:28:59.780 --> 00:29:01.610
five hundred dollar carry special edition as

764
00:29:01.610 --> 00:29:02.720
you're telling me for thirty five hundred

765
00:29:02.720 --> 00:29:04.220
dollars you couldn't make me a fucker

766
00:29:04.280 --> 00:29:05.630
frame that doesn't have the internal lock

767
00:29:05.630 --> 00:29:06.410
in it canal

768
00:29:07.580 --> 00:29:08.000
i know

769
00:29:09.200 --> 00:29:09.740
anyway

770
00:29:10.790 --> 00:29:12.560
yeah that that irritates me but speaking

771
00:29:12.560 --> 00:29:15.140
of revolvers let's talk about the roscoe

772
00:29:15.140 --> 00:29:19.216
because oh my gosh okay so you've

773
00:29:19.216 --> 00:29:21.230
been you guys so i'll i'll give

774
00:29:21.230 --> 00:29:22.580
you guys a peek behind the curtain

775
00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:24.495
not to pat myself on the back

776
00:29:24.500 --> 00:29:26.330
and i actually named that god i

777
00:29:26.330 --> 00:29:28.280
named two of our launches as a

778
00:29:28.280 --> 00:29:30.620
matter of fact the roscoe one hero

779
00:29:30.620 --> 00:29:33.680
footage and the lw c on rossi

780
00:29:33.890 --> 00:29:36.680
which lw c stands for lightweight carbon

781
00:29:36.691 --> 00:29:39.170
because it's a lightweight carb so an

782
00:29:39.260 --> 00:29:40.790
two two behind the scene stories i'm

783
00:29:40.790 --> 00:29:43.850
in several group chats for work and

784
00:29:43.880 --> 00:29:47.270
our boss sends a picture of the

785
00:29:47.270 --> 00:29:48.680
of the gun that would eventually become

786
00:29:48.680 --> 00:29:50.780
the heritage roscoe and he's like

787
00:29:51.080 --> 00:29:53.870
thinking about bringing this model back what

788
00:29:53.870 --> 00:29:55.610
should we call it and i immediately

789
00:29:55.610 --> 00:29:57.020
in the chat was like that guns

790
00:29:57.020 --> 00:29:58.700
called the roscoe there is no other

791
00:29:58.700 --> 00:30:03.530
name for it and that stuck we

792
00:30:03.560 --> 00:30:05.330
got with one of our agency partners

793
00:30:05.330 --> 00:30:07.340
to do the launch campaign to be

794
00:30:07.340 --> 00:30:10.550
very filmed war very you know trench

795
00:30:10.550 --> 00:30:10.940
coats

796
00:30:10.940 --> 00:30:12.320
in guns and all of that and

797
00:30:12.320 --> 00:30:13.880
it was fantastic

798
00:30:15.110 --> 00:30:19.040
and the gun with a tremendous reception

799
00:30:19.040 --> 00:30:21.200
like way more popular than i expected

800
00:30:21.200 --> 00:30:22.220
it to be at n ram so

801
00:30:22.220 --> 00:30:24.950
i'm super happy about how that launch

802
00:30:24.950 --> 00:30:26.390
went and the amount of feedback and

803
00:30:26.390 --> 00:30:29.900
social media commentary on it and the

804
00:30:29.900 --> 00:30:32.090
lw se as a similarly funny story

805
00:30:32.090 --> 00:30:33.530
where we are going back and forth

806
00:30:33.560 --> 00:30:34.580
on names for it

807
00:30:35.125 --> 00:30:37.495
and in the same group text i

808
00:30:37.495 --> 00:30:38.665
was like why don't we just call

809
00:30:38.665 --> 00:30:40.015
it a lightweight carbon cause it's a

810
00:30:40.015 --> 00:30:44.455
lightweight carbon and i'm actually in many

811
00:30:44.455 --> 00:30:46.135
ways more excited about the elder vc

812
00:30:46.135 --> 00:30:47.635
than i am roscoe in years whilst

813
00:30:47.636 --> 00:30:49.795
roster super cool i love it if

814
00:30:49.795 --> 00:30:52.546
you want a five shot j for

815
00:30:52.555 --> 00:30:55.105
his size revolver to you know either

816
00:30:55.105 --> 00:30:55.285
ca

817
00:30:55.285 --> 00:30:57.895
cause play as the guys from l

818
00:30:57.895 --> 00:30:59.935
a confidential or just as a carry

819
00:30:59.935 --> 00:31:02.005
gun because it is a legitimately good

820
00:31:02.005 --> 00:31:05.335
carry good go get a roscoe but

821
00:31:05.335 --> 00:31:07.105
the lw sees cool and here's why

822
00:31:07.735 --> 00:31:09.925
do you remember that any atlanta rifle

823
00:31:10.825 --> 00:31:14.155
i do in fact how great was

824
00:31:14.155 --> 00:31:15.445
the ne of handy rifle

825
00:31:15.445 --> 00:31:16.915
when they started making them with threaded

826
00:31:16.915 --> 00:31:17.455
barrels

827
00:31:19.435 --> 00:31:22.285
lake spot on like those were those

828
00:31:22.285 --> 00:31:25.405
were legitimately when you were looking for

829
00:31:25.675 --> 00:31:31.135
the absolute light just wised absolute quietest

830
00:31:31.165 --> 00:31:33.205
gun you could possibly get you could

831
00:31:33.205 --> 00:31:36.265
possibly throw together as a functional firearm

832
00:31:36.715 --> 00:31:37.375
that was it

833
00:31:38.725 --> 00:31:40.075
that was it was it was the

834
00:31:40.075 --> 00:31:42.145
ne of handy rifle they were such

835
00:31:42.145 --> 00:31:44.425
good guns because like a t c

836
00:31:44.425 --> 00:31:46.366
encore at the time was like an

837
00:31:46.366 --> 00:31:47.695
you know a g grade was like

838
00:31:47.725 --> 00:31:49.075
eight hundred bucks or grand or some

839
00:31:49.075 --> 00:31:50.845
crazy number like that and while you

840
00:31:50.845 --> 00:31:52.225
could do a lot more things with

841
00:31:52.225 --> 00:31:53.762
the tc encore lakes which arrows and

842
00:31:53.785 --> 00:31:55.675
like gun legos and all that to

843
00:31:55.675 --> 00:31:58.885
any of handy rifle was one hundred

844
00:31:58.885 --> 00:32:01.165
and fifty bucks or some crazy like

845
00:32:01.165 --> 00:32:05.395
crazy low numbers super economically viable they

846
00:32:05.395 --> 00:32:08.275
worked fine cause it cousins single shot

847
00:32:08.275 --> 00:32:11.215
brothers single shot rifle yeah single shot

848
00:32:11.215 --> 00:32:13.525
break action rifle it was a great

849
00:32:13.615 --> 00:32:15.655
first gun for kids as a starter

850
00:32:15.685 --> 00:32:17.545
hunting rifle it was a great done

851
00:32:17.545 --> 00:32:19.045
to throw on an eighty v

852
00:32:19.105 --> 00:32:20.815
because if he if so often you

853
00:32:20.815 --> 00:32:22.405
ran it over you just bought another

854
00:32:22.405 --> 00:32:25.435
one you know and i i always

855
00:32:25.435 --> 00:32:28.195
loved them i loved their utility i

856
00:32:28.195 --> 00:32:30.265
loved their usability and so now that

857
00:32:30.265 --> 00:32:33.205
we have one of our own and

858
00:32:33.205 --> 00:32:35.635
we launched it in three fifty legend

859
00:32:35.635 --> 00:32:37.795
because apparently there's a lot of states

860
00:32:37.795 --> 00:32:39.205
that still have like straight wall

861
00:32:39.235 --> 00:32:42.265
one the deer hunting cartridge wrister restrictions

862
00:32:42.475 --> 00:32:44.061
which i wasn't aware of because that's

863
00:32:44.061 --> 00:32:46.945
the dawn of saddam but it's really

864
00:32:47.005 --> 00:32:49.495
it's really silly i get i understand

865
00:32:49.495 --> 00:32:52.615
the logic that came about for it

866
00:32:52.615 --> 00:32:55.375
because as michigan's one of those were

867
00:32:55.376 --> 00:32:57.595
a shotgun only zone so you could

868
00:32:57.595 --> 00:32:59.365
use rifles slugger block or

869
00:32:59.423 --> 00:33:01.465
or buckshot and then we went to

870
00:33:01.495 --> 00:33:06.145
a straight walled cartridge within certain specs

871
00:33:06.445 --> 00:33:09.325
within certain velocity and weight specs and

872
00:33:09.895 --> 00:33:11.575
and it still doesn't make a whole

873
00:33:11.575 --> 00:33:14.215
lot of sense it yandle there are

874
00:33:14.305 --> 00:33:16.285
there are net like there's no magic

875
00:33:16.285 --> 00:33:19.195
about a necked cartridge vs a straight

876
00:33:19.195 --> 00:33:19.525
walker

877
00:33:19.525 --> 00:33:22.525
cartridge from a safety standpoint because it

878
00:33:22.615 --> 00:33:24.955
comes down to ballistic coefficient and muzzle

879
00:33:24.955 --> 00:33:26.905
velocity for how far this thing is

880
00:33:26.905 --> 00:33:29.956
going to go so yeah so i

881
00:33:29.956 --> 00:33:32.425
i guess the either the whole

882
00:33:34.045 --> 00:33:35.815
yeah it it it's a silly rule

883
00:33:36.175 --> 00:33:38.155
exists in a place they tried they

884
00:33:38.155 --> 00:33:39.415
did not do well at it but

885
00:33:39.415 --> 00:33:41.515
it's still the rules yeah and so

886
00:33:41.515 --> 00:33:43.075
they're you know the three hundred legend

887
00:33:43.075 --> 00:33:44.965
is a cartridge that was made to

888
00:33:44.965 --> 00:33:47.845
answer that question because it provides better

889
00:33:47.845 --> 00:33:50.185
terminal bliss or better exterior ballistics and

890
00:33:50.185 --> 00:33:52.135
better terminal ballistics than say a thirty

891
00:33:52.135 --> 00:33:53.605
thirty which is a bottleneck

892
00:33:53.678 --> 00:33:55.795
cartridge which you can't use so this

893
00:33:55.795 --> 00:33:57.415
is why these rules are done three

894
00:33:57.415 --> 00:33:59.575
thirty legend provides better exterior and terminal

895
00:33:59.575 --> 00:34:01.495
ballistics than thirty thirty or comparable to

896
00:34:01.498 --> 00:34:04.435
thirty thirty observed the terminal but the

897
00:34:04.435 --> 00:34:06.625
thirty thirty is bad because it's bottlenecked

898
00:34:06.805 --> 00:34:09.325
dvd legend okay cause not bottleneck that

899
00:34:09.475 --> 00:34:12.565
makes sense i guess anyway i think

900
00:34:12.565 --> 00:34:13.765
the lw sees the supercar

901
00:34:13.825 --> 00:34:15.955
concept and i'm super excited for it

902
00:34:16.285 --> 00:34:18.115
and i'm super excited to account for

903
00:34:18.115 --> 00:34:19.645
all of the calibers cause we were

904
00:34:19.645 --> 00:34:21.595
doing it five five six three hundred

905
00:34:21.595 --> 00:34:24.925
black and six five creedmoor and then

906
00:34:24.925 --> 00:34:25.765
we're going to do it in the

907
00:34:25.765 --> 00:34:28.945
new boutique high caliber turbo murder rifle

908
00:34:28.945 --> 00:34:32.335
round eight six blackout because that's like

909
00:34:32.335 --> 00:34:33.835
a thing do because you

910
00:34:33.925 --> 00:34:37.285
korean and because so i'm also after

911
00:34:37.285 --> 00:34:39.685
i get off this watergate then recording

912
00:34:39.715 --> 00:34:41.545
and text that group chat and be

913
00:34:41.545 --> 00:34:42.505
like hey guys i have an idea

914
00:34:43.705 --> 00:34:46.885
l w c five hundred magnum ashley

915
00:34:46.885 --> 00:34:48.205
express rifle sights

916
00:34:50.875 --> 00:34:54.145
haha why because we fucking nath why

917
00:34:54.265 --> 00:34:57.025
the current cars here because we should

918
00:34:57.055 --> 00:34:58.975
do dumb things because they're fun

919
00:35:00.085 --> 00:35:01.765
and then the last thing we did

920
00:35:01.765 --> 00:35:03.415
at an array that i feel a

921
00:35:03.415 --> 00:35:06.205
lot of people may be missed is

922
00:35:06.565 --> 00:35:09.265
we launched a bunch of top eject

923
00:35:09.265 --> 00:35:11.525

of them

933
00:35:31.525 --> 00:35:33.025
three to seven forty five colt forty

934
00:35:33.025 --> 00:35:34.105
four mag

935
00:35:35.185 --> 00:35:37.405
and i think we're fifty four castle

936
00:35:37.405 --> 00:35:38.545
but i'd have to double check that

937
00:35:38.545 --> 00:35:41.425
one but yes there were there were

938
00:35:41.425 --> 00:35:42.685
a lot of there were a lot

939
00:35:42.685 --> 00:35:45.805
of skews that got dropped yeah so

940
00:35:45.805 --> 00:35:46.945
if you guys are into the whole

941
00:35:46.945 --> 00:35:50.035
lever action game we are staying strong

942
00:35:50.095 --> 00:35:51.955
in the lever action game heritage we

943
00:35:51.955 --> 00:35:53.515
got records on heritage we've got the

944
00:35:53.515 --> 00:35:55.285
r ninety five on rossi

ah so yeah we're we're we're we're

946
00:35:57.865 --> 00:36:00.865
staying strong i think for us at

947
00:36:00.865 --> 00:36:02.185
an array was a pretty good show

948
00:36:02.215 --> 00:36:03.745
i would say that we as a

949
00:36:03.745 --> 00:36:06.655
brand as three brands tourists rossi and

950
00:36:06.655 --> 00:36:08.155
heritage we had a pretty good show

951
00:36:08.425 --> 00:36:10.705
again disappointed with the floor traffic but

952
00:36:10.705 --> 00:36:13.495
what did you see in your wanderings

953
00:36:13.555 --> 00:36:15.295
that were other than us that was

954
00:36:15.295 --> 00:36:15.445
in

955
00:36:15.445 --> 00:36:17.395
trusting like what what was cool and

956
00:36:17.395 --> 00:36:20.095
new out there for the consumer will

957
00:36:20.095 --> 00:36:22.495
into for the consumer was on like

958
00:36:22.795 --> 00:36:24.745
i i didn't make it into langdon

959
00:36:24.745 --> 00:36:26.395
so i didn't know they had done

960
00:36:26.395 --> 00:36:28.975
like a really good really good booth

961
00:36:28.975 --> 00:36:31.375
and show but like allison langdon didn't

962
00:36:31.465 --> 00:36:34.735
launch new stuff they were just near

963
00:36:34.975 --> 00:36:35.605
the present

964
00:36:35.635 --> 00:36:36.655
third expanding book

965
00:36:38.245 --> 00:36:39.775
there wasn't a lot on the floor

966
00:36:40.075 --> 00:36:41.545
was not a lot new on the

967
00:36:41.545 --> 00:36:43.765
floor it was a very quiet show

968
00:36:43.765 --> 00:36:45.295
for the with the exception of you

969
00:36:45.295 --> 00:36:46.645
guys it was a lot of people

970
00:36:46.645 --> 00:36:47.785
who showed up

971
00:36:49.645 --> 00:36:51.685
things that were announced in

972
00:36:53.485 --> 00:36:55.135
at shot show time frame things where

973
00:36:55.197 --> 00:36:56.365
the pronounced bear

974
00:36:58.075 --> 00:37:00.265
as soon as i saw them physically

975
00:37:00.325 --> 00:37:02.845
done right yeah you saw the products

976
00:37:02.905 --> 00:37:04.555
in hand there were more of them

977
00:37:04.855 --> 00:37:06.895
a good example is primary arms new

978
00:37:06.895 --> 00:37:09.445
plx see in the second focal plane

979
00:37:09.445 --> 00:37:11.515
variation which i'm excited about i like

980
00:37:11.516 --> 00:37:13.045
the scope lot in the front focal

981
00:37:13.045 --> 00:37:14.905
plane i think they needed to launch

982
00:37:14.965 --> 00:37:16.555
it in a second focal plane because

983
00:37:16.555 --> 00:37:17.605
i think that's the more use

984
00:37:17.605 --> 00:37:19.885
useful of the two for carby novels

985
00:37:20.515 --> 00:37:22.570
and so i was happy to see

986
00:37:22.885 --> 00:37:27.325
those and in in general just because

987
00:37:27.325 --> 00:37:28.555
of the year and because we're coming

988
00:37:28.555 --> 00:37:30.085
up the election and everything like that

989
00:37:30.085 --> 00:37:31.975
it was it was slow it was

990
00:37:31.975 --> 00:37:34.255
quiet there wasn't a lot new but

991
00:37:34.255 --> 00:37:35.695
there was a lot that had banned

992
00:37:35.755 --> 00:37:37.765
advanced they're gone

993
00:37:37.765 --> 00:37:39.655
djt and shipping were very close to

994
00:37:39.655 --> 00:37:43.105
launched and shipping and filling filling out

995
00:37:43.105 --> 00:37:45.415
those niches because the products are are

996
00:37:45.415 --> 00:37:47.635
finally rolling forward and we're seeing a

997
00:37:47.635 --> 00:37:49.405
lot of the bottlenecks that we saw

998
00:37:49.435 --> 00:37:51.055
the last couple of years due to

999
00:37:51.055 --> 00:37:54.055
supply and in manufacturing everything like that

1000
00:37:54.445 --> 00:37:54.865
thumbs up

1001
00:37:56.755 --> 00:37:59.035
amazon seeing those clear out so there's

1002
00:37:59.035 --> 00:38:02.965
a lot cleaner timeline between announcements and

1003
00:38:02.965 --> 00:38:05.485
shipping than we've been able to predict

1004
00:38:05.575 --> 00:38:07.915
in a lot of other ways so

1005
00:38:07.975 --> 00:38:10.795
yeah from from the very boring standpoint

1006
00:38:10.825 --> 00:38:12.775
of things will get to you faster

1007
00:38:12.775 --> 00:38:15.565
guys and that's that's starting to come

1008
00:38:15.565 --> 00:38:16.114
true more

1009
00:38:16.165 --> 00:38:17.723
moore's things and things are going to

1010
00:38:17.723 --> 00:38:21.771
get to you faster more smoothly and

1011
00:38:22.075 --> 00:38:23.815
our latest sales going on this summer

1012
00:38:23.815 --> 00:38:24.955
guys so if you see something on

1013
00:38:24.955 --> 00:38:27.325

1014
00:38:27.955 --> 00:38:29.275
oh yeah we are all at the

1015
00:38:29.275 --> 00:38:31.195
manufacturer level being ranked we have got

1016
00:38:31.195 --> 00:38:33.625
to move some units this summer because

1017
00:38:33.925 --> 00:38:36.325
the summer slowdown has definitely already started

1018
00:38:37.225 --> 00:38:39.505
we are you know particular order of

1019
00:38:39.505 --> 00:38:42.685
slackening ready to to talk some shop

1020
00:38:42.685 --> 00:38:44.335
for people who watch this who actually

1021
00:38:44.365 --> 00:38:45.955
care about the like marketing side of

1022
00:38:45.955 --> 00:38:48.715
things all five of six of you

1023
00:38:50.431 --> 00:38:53.365
very generous six here the the marketing

1024
00:38:53.455 --> 00:38:54.805
the market is in a slump we

1025
00:38:54.805 --> 00:38:56.965
haven't seen in many years and the

1026
00:38:56.965 --> 00:38:58.675
funniest thing that i keep getting asked

1027
00:38:58.675 --> 00:39:00.445
is why could this be i'm like

1028
00:39:00.595 --> 00:39:03.325
i need you to understand that twenty

1029
00:39:03.325 --> 00:39:08.995
twenty through twenty three was artificial was

1030
00:39:09.115 --> 00:39:09.849
artificially

1031
00:39:09.925 --> 00:39:13.495
reduced because of us several factors related

1032
00:39:13.495 --> 00:39:15.985
to the pandemic and the actions that

1033
00:39:15.985 --> 00:39:18.355
were taken during the pandemic by both

1034
00:39:18.685 --> 00:39:22.285
public people and the government ray bat

1035
00:39:22.285 --> 00:39:25.525
created a dramatic increase and the thing

1036
00:39:25.525 --> 00:39:27.595
that people and we've done this like

1037
00:39:27.595 --> 00:39:30.077
five times now since you

1038
00:39:30.085 --> 00:39:31.945
and i have entered the industry seriously

1039
00:39:32.215 --> 00:39:33.505
because we do it every time that

1040
00:39:33.505 --> 00:39:35.275
there is a jump everyone just as

1041
00:39:35.425 --> 00:39:37.315
this is the new normal no no

1042
00:39:37.315 --> 00:39:39.685
it isn't to remember all of the

1043
00:39:39.745 --> 00:39:42.355
boutique a are manufacturers that sprang up

1044
00:39:42.355 --> 00:39:44.155
after sandy hook and it's like we're

1045
00:39:44.157 --> 00:39:45.985
selling a rs like crazy and now

1046
00:39:45.985 --> 00:39:48.595
they're all gone they're all gone gone

1047
00:39:48.595 --> 00:39:50.245
gone they're all gone by

1048
00:39:50.365 --> 00:39:52.795
bay grab big rub my my hope

1049
00:39:52.795 --> 00:39:54.415
for them as they grabbed their bag

1050
00:39:54.445 --> 00:39:56.845
they had you know a production window

1051
00:39:56.845 --> 00:39:58.345
that they knew was going to happen

1052
00:39:58.675 --> 00:40:00.595
but in reality i know most of

1053
00:40:00.595 --> 00:40:04.285
them unfortunately died like tragic he just

1054
00:40:04.525 --> 00:40:06.925
went out of business leaders on you

1055
00:40:06.925 --> 00:40:10.405
know built too much products they were

1056
00:40:10.405 --> 00:40:13.405
weren't particularly notable they hadn't built a

1057
00:40:13.435 --> 00:40:15.355
firm foundation for what they were doing

1058
00:40:15.685 --> 00:40:18.505
and then they were gone yeah though

1059
00:40:19.675 --> 00:40:22.375
suck like that that sucks but man

1060
00:40:22.435 --> 00:40:25.195
there's there the the problem we are

1061
00:40:25.195 --> 00:40:27.175
going to see with this year is

1062
00:40:27.175 --> 00:40:29.035
all the people who didn't faint that

1063
00:40:29.035 --> 00:40:31.855
twenty twenty three twenty twenty three especially

1064
00:40:31.855 --> 00:40:33.625
twenty twenty twenty one and twenty two

1065
00:40:33.685 --> 00:40:35.875
were gonna end they didn't the numbers

1066
00:40:35.875 --> 00:40:38.125
were gonna end and everybody who's like

1067
00:40:38.125 --> 00:40:39.685
none at all we need to enjoy

1068
00:40:40.125 --> 00:40:41.745
we need to plan to go back

1069
00:40:41.745 --> 00:40:44.505
to twenty eighteen twenty nineteen those people

1070
00:40:44.505 --> 00:40:45.795
were thinking we're going to go back

1071
00:40:45.795 --> 00:40:48.045
to twenty eighteen twenty nineteen those people

1072
00:40:48.045 --> 00:40:50.565
are fine right now they're not grant

1073
00:40:50.775 --> 00:40:53.025
as numbers are down but they're fine

1074
00:40:53.025 --> 00:40:55.815
because they knew twenty eighteen twenty nineteen

1075
00:40:56.115 --> 00:40:59.595
that's the normal line yeah that's where

1076
00:40:59.595 --> 00:40:59.955
we can

1077
00:41:00.459 --> 00:41:02.745
mobile performance will cause you and i

1078
00:41:02.745 --> 00:41:05.625
both remember the trump slump and we

1079
00:41:05.625 --> 00:41:08.535
are experiencing this isn't i will i

1080
00:41:08.535 --> 00:41:08.745
don't

1081
00:41:10.365 --> 00:41:12.885
experiencing the trump slump

1082
00:41:14.175 --> 00:41:16.545
with trump out yeah it's not it's

1083
00:41:16.545 --> 00:41:17.985
not as bad as the trump slump

1084
00:41:18.075 --> 00:41:21.885
but it's definitely it's definitely significant and

1085
00:41:21.885 --> 00:41:23.355
obviously you know we're all like you

1086
00:41:23.355 --> 00:41:24.914
know waiting to see what's going to

1087
00:41:24.914 --> 00:41:28.005
happen around election season but i don't

1088
00:41:28.275 --> 00:41:31.215
it hasn't been contentious like twenty twenty

1089
00:41:31.215 --> 00:41:33.795
was right leg why you know he

1090
00:41:33.795 --> 00:41:34.095
said

1091
00:41:34.125 --> 00:41:36.375
earlier in the cast the selection feels

1092
00:41:36.375 --> 00:41:39.015
like elder abuse right now that has

1093
00:41:39.015 --> 00:41:42.105
a really weird people as election is

1094
00:41:43.275 --> 00:41:46.725
the internet were man if the internet

1095
00:41:46.725 --> 00:41:50.235
rumor is correct and i don't i

1096
00:41:50.235 --> 00:41:51.045
don't know how much you want to

1097
00:41:51.045 --> 00:41:52.635
trust internet rumors okay but here's my

1098
00:41:52.635 --> 00:41:55.245
favorite conspiracy theory that i am and

1099
00:41:55.305 --> 00:41:58.125
leave that that i i don't actually

1100
00:41:58.125 --> 00:41:59.505
think isn't going to happen because it's

1101
00:41:59.505 --> 00:42:02.205
crazy person talk but but it's fun

1102
00:42:02.205 --> 00:42:03.405
to indulge in crazy

1103
00:42:03.405 --> 00:42:05.415
a person talk crazy person conspiracy theory

1104
00:42:05.415 --> 00:42:07.635
that i read on x and so

1105
00:42:07.635 --> 00:42:09.105
far i just want to i want

1106
00:42:09.105 --> 00:42:10.515
to caveat this with not a single

1107
00:42:10.515 --> 00:42:11.775
one of the conspiracy theories that i

1108
00:42:11.775 --> 00:42:14.715
have read on x has borne any

1109
00:42:14.775 --> 00:42:17.235
truth to it would likely happen but

1110
00:42:17.235 --> 00:42:19.125
lay one of them finally does through

1111
00:42:19.335 --> 00:42:21.765
volume of fire they're good right i

1112
00:42:21.765 --> 00:42:23.385
predicted it all along

1113
00:42:23.685 --> 00:42:25.335
right we're you know we're we're at

1114
00:42:25.348 --> 00:42:27.405
monkeys with typewriters theory here when it

1115
00:42:27.405 --> 00:42:30.435
comes to conspiracies on axe and buds

1116
00:42:32.055 --> 00:42:34.185
this one is that at the democratic

1117
00:42:34.185 --> 00:42:36.640
national convention the democrats are going to

1118
00:42:36.645 --> 00:42:38.895
jump biden as the nominee by a

1119
00:42:38.895 --> 00:42:40.365
vote which they can do it isn't

1120
00:42:40.365 --> 00:42:43.095
it wicked procedural things to do that

1121
00:42:43.425 --> 00:42:45.225
they're going to dump him by via

1122
00:42:45.315 --> 00:42:47.205
the vote and they're going to use

1123
00:42:47.565 --> 00:42:50.295
gavin newsom at the candidate so that's

1124
00:42:50.295 --> 00:42:50.895
the

1125
00:42:52.005 --> 00:42:54.075
that's it that's the twitter conspiracy theory

1126
00:42:54.075 --> 00:42:56.175
or the x conspiracy theory that i

1127
00:42:56.175 --> 00:42:57.855
read and i'm like bro please let

1128
00:42:57.855 --> 00:42:58.935
that happen i'll sell a bunch of

1129
00:42:58.935 --> 00:43:01.905
islands lie like that that would be

1130
00:43:01.905 --> 00:43:06.405
great for us that's fantastic for us

1131
00:43:06.555 --> 00:43:08.895
it's like oh a man who is

1132
00:43:08.895 --> 00:43:11.295
a known enemy of the second amendment

1133
00:43:11.385 --> 00:43:11.805
no

1134
00:43:12.225 --> 00:43:14.025
i don't use the term enemy a

1135
00:43:14.025 --> 00:43:17.475
lot in politics because gavin newsom gavin

1136
00:43:17.475 --> 00:43:19.635
newsom is straight up an enemy like

1137
00:43:19.695 --> 00:43:21.555
oh yeah one hundred batman and that

1138
00:43:21.555 --> 00:43:23.085
man is a moron and we have

1139
00:43:23.085 --> 00:43:25.485
a bunch of mutual friends who unfortunately

1140
00:43:25.485 --> 00:43:28.845
work closer to him with like yeah

1141
00:43:28.935 --> 00:43:30.885
who very much don't like that fat

1142
00:43:30.885 --> 00:43:31.965
sorry to all of my

1143
00:43:31.965 --> 00:43:35.595
my friends who's behind the the orange

1144
00:43:35.595 --> 00:43:39.026
curtain in california yeah but it'd be

1145
00:43:39.026 --> 00:43:40.005
allowed in any way

1146
00:43:40.725 --> 00:43:44.025
the one that's the crazy conspiracy theory

1147
00:43:44.025 --> 00:43:44.625
that i've heard

1148
00:43:45.705 --> 00:43:47.205
i don't think it's actually going to

1149
00:43:47.205 --> 00:43:48.825
happen because that's crazy

1150
00:43:49.492 --> 00:43:51.045
what i do think he's doing the

1151
00:43:51.045 --> 00:43:52.395
math behind that if you want to

1152
00:43:52.395 --> 00:43:53.625
get into like the bedding in the

1153
00:43:53.625 --> 00:43:57.550
mouth and everything like that and trump

1154
00:43:57.645 --> 00:44:01.365
is already very much close to biden

1155
00:44:01.365 --> 00:44:03.015
in the numbers he's ahead or he's

1156
00:44:03.015 --> 00:44:04.995
a bit behind depending on which point

1157
00:44:05.055 --> 00:44:07.665
look at and polls are notoriously in

1158
00:44:07.905 --> 00:44:09.315
any way but if you look at

1159
00:44:09.315 --> 00:44:09.645
the number

1160
00:44:09.645 --> 00:44:13.395
bers if if biden had if the

1161
00:44:13.395 --> 00:44:15.345
democrat let's let's phrase it this way

1162
00:44:15.437 --> 00:44:17.355
the democrat party had enough of a

1163
00:44:17.355 --> 00:44:20.625
lead over trump where they thought they

1164
00:44:20.625 --> 00:44:24.405
could make up the very likely drop

1165
00:44:24.495 --> 00:44:27.165
if biden goes away and gavin newsom

1166
00:44:27.585 --> 00:44:29.325
takes over because there will be a

1167
00:44:29.325 --> 00:44:29.730
drop

1168
00:44:29.835 --> 00:44:31.995
they have to bend makeup for efforts

1169
00:44:32.625 --> 00:44:35.625
and spain that

1170
00:44:37.215 --> 00:44:40.185
according to vegas gavin newsom is a

1171
00:44:40.188 --> 00:44:43.185
plus fifteen hundred underdog to win the

1172
00:44:43.185 --> 00:44:46.905
presidency so if you had one hundred

1173
00:44:46.905 --> 00:44:48.495
bucks in one day and i'll throw

1174
00:44:48.495 --> 00:44:49.845
it down on that you'd get fifteen

1175
00:44:49.845 --> 00:44:52.335
hundred dollars on your bed if he

1176
00:44:52.335 --> 00:44:54.525
won so i'm not saying throw your

1177
00:44:54.525 --> 00:44:56.925
money away but it's

1178
00:44:57.555 --> 00:44:59.205
it is a way it's a running

1179
00:44:59.655 --> 00:45:02.265
it is it is within a realm

1180
00:45:02.265 --> 00:45:05.115
of possibility according to these current odds

1181
00:45:05.565 --> 00:45:07.965
donald trump is the favorite at minus

1182
00:45:07.965 --> 00:45:10.575
one oh for joe biden plus one

1183
00:45:10.575 --> 00:45:12.885
seventeen if that was if that was

1184
00:45:12.885 --> 00:45:13.935
a fight we call that a pick

1185
00:45:13.935 --> 00:45:15.795
'em fight right that's too close to

1186
00:45:15.825 --> 00:45:17.085
actually call a true

1187
00:45:17.085 --> 00:45:20.055
a favorite in there so anyway that's

1188
00:45:20.055 --> 00:45:21.975
fun to talk about but not today

1189
00:45:22.035 --> 00:45:24.315

1190
00:45:24.315 --> 00:45:27.615
