Gun Talk

AWR Hawkins from Breitbart joins Ryan Gresham to cover a lot of ground — from Dolly Parton pulling a pistol in 1970s New York to the CDC data on defensive gun uses that got quietly buried and is now back. Up to 2.5 million defensive gun uses per year, the history of gun control as a tool of oppression, and why the fastest-growing demographic of gun owners might be the most important story in the 2A world right now.

This Gun Talk Nation is brought to you by Remmington Ammo, Colt, Range Ready, MTM, Leupold, Shooting Sports Life, Ruger (250th).
