The Rob Pincus Podcast Rob Pincus, Jeff Ott

In today’s Training Segment, Rob discusses what he feels is a gun owner’s most important responsibility: Preventing unauthorized access to your firearm. Is that what you thought he was going to say? Then in the Politics & Gun Rights Segment, Rob discusses the upcoming election of officers at the annual NRA conference Memorial Day weekend.
Which individuals does Rob’s believe should be prevented from unauthorized access to your firearms? Listen for the complete details behind these considerations:  
Individuals who do not know how to safely operate a firearm Individuals with malicious intent Individuals without the mental capacity to understand the possible negative outcomes of firearms use Individuals who are physically incapable of operating a firearm Individuals with impaired judgement or perception.  Memorial Day weekend, the NRA meets in Houston to elect a new board members and EVP. Wayne LaPierre has been driving the organization for years and now a serious contender for the position. Allen West announced he will run to replace LaPierre  in order to “restore the honor, integrity and character” of the NRA after years of abuse, embarrassment, financial struggles and suits. The failings and mismanagement of the NRA for personal gain by the LaPierre reign were detailed in the second season of the Gangster Capitalism podcast.
Rob talked with Allen West and discusses that conversation and what he feels about West’s run to replace LaPierre. In addition, Rob outlines the Second Amendment Organization’s Top Five Reform Goals to improve the National Rifle Association.

On April 26, the ATF (Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives) released new rules to remove and replace the regulatory definitions of ‘‘firearm frame or receiver’’ and ‘‘frame or receiver’’ because the current regulations fail to capture the full meaning of those terms. The ATF’s is also refining definitions of ‘‘firearm’’ and ‘‘gunsmith’’ to clarify the meaning of those terms, plus other terms in order to keep up with current advances in gun-making.
You can find the full text of the new ruling here: https://www.atf.gov/rules-and-regulations/rulemaking
In today's extended Politics Segment of episode, Rob provides his thoughts and insights after reviewing all 364 pages of the document. (Just a note... not ALL 364 pages are new rules.) Rob breaks down the rules, removing hype and sensationalism. Should you be concerned? 
In today's Education Segment, Rob talks about the realities of using a kit gun as your primary self defensive weapon. Is it a good idea? What should you be concerned about? Are there added liability concerns?
Big topics today required an episode twice as long as normal!

In this week's episode, Rob talks about Armed Home Defense in the Training Segment and Defending Property in the Politics Segment.
Armed Home Defense is build upon basic defensive skills with attention to specific actions focused on protecting your life and the lives of your loved one. Preparation includes knowing how to use your weapon in your home, where there are bedrooms, or even the living spaces where your loved ones may be located. In other words, know your home. How long are the hallways. Where is there cover and not just concealment? Where do you have defensive equipment stored? Where is a safe location to evade?
Next are the tactics for Armed Home Defense. How do these differ from those used on the street or other public locations? Rob reviews the five tactics of Evade, Barricade, Arm, Communicate and Respond. 
Knowing how to protect yourself and your loved ones in a known location (not always in your home) is an important skill with specialized tactics. You can learn more by reviewing the information at Personal Defense Network, including the DVD set, "Home Security and Defense".
You can learn more about the Three C's of Communication Rob refers to here: https://www.personaldefensenetwork.com/video/three-cs-coordinated-defense-013026/
The Politics Segment on Property Defense is closely aligned with defending your home, but they are not interchangeable terms nor do they have interchangeable meanings. Defending property (such as your house, car, truck or even laptop) is typically not something States see as warranting an armed response. Rob discusses the challenges and considerations  you must make when faced with this situation. It is most likely not what you think.

In today's Training Segment, Rob discusses the recent surge of 'red dot optics' appearing on factory pistols. Is this good? Is it bad? It's cool, but is it right for self defensive, carry pistols? Are they all made the same or are there features to look for or to avoid? 
Next in the Politics Segment, Rob talks with Randy Miyan, CEO of Liberal Gun Owners. LGO was created to address the general belief that all gun owners are violence obsessed, deviants who can only be understood through "criminal and epidemiological studies of gun violence". And that all Liberals are far left, Democrats and pacifists. Randy discusses with Rob LGO's work and commitment to gun rights and public safety.
LGO's has a regular blog and resource site, called LGO Lens as well as a podcast. Check them out today!

What's the difference between practice and training? In this week's Training Segment, Rob explores the difference and why both are important, but why the terms are not interchangeable. 
Next in the Politics Segment, Rob talks with Edgar Antillon about Guns For Everyone and Guns for Everyone National. Edgar runs free CCW training in Colorado and is actively involved in the National GFE organization. As you can expected, free training runs against the belief of some trainers, but Edgar believes training should be available for anyone who wants to know how to safely handle firearms. The local sheriff has attempted to block the training, but has backed down facing the prospect of losing the legal challenge. Listen to this discussion on free training!
Finally, Rob recently participated in a Colorado Gun Makers meeting and match. In today's extended episode, Rob talks with three different builders while they assemble their 80% kits about why they were there, what they think about building their own weapons and why they find it important.

In today's Politics Segment, Rob discusses the issue of Universal Background Checks.  Why are 'Universal Background Checks' a bad idea? Is it an infringement to our 2nd Amendment rights? Could it lead to the end of private firearms sales? To government confiscation of your arms? These are important points to consider. You can find more on the topic of Background Checks, Universal Background Checks and Private Transfers at GunRights.info. 
Next in the Training Segment, Rob invites podcast producer, Jeff Ott, back to the show. This week Jeff asks Rob about the use of hand-loaded ammunition. Is this good or bad? In can ultimately pay for itself in savings over 'off the shelf' manufactured ammunition. Are there any downsides and if so, what are they?
