Welcome to Episode 174 of Gun Guy Radio! This is the podcast that shines a positive light on the firearms lifestyle. I’m Your host Ryan Michad and this is your weekly dose of positive firearms talk, without the politics. This week, I’m joined by John from Active Self Protection to discuss his work analyzing what happens during a violent encounter and what lessons we can learn and apply to our own defensive plans. As always, please consider supporting the Firearms Radio Network by shopping Amazon using our Amazon Affiliate Link at firearmsradio.tv/amazon. A portion of your purchase will go towards helping the FRN create awesome pro-gun content! Also check out the Huckleberry Patch from the Patriot Patch Company! Welcome John, its great to have you on the show!! This past week, I got ahold of a Steyr C9-A1 so I will be testing that in the  near future. Stay tuned to the Handgun Radio facebook page and the firearmsradio.tv page as well! With that, we will head into the main topic, the dynamics of a violent encounter with Active Self Protection! Main Topic: Dynamics of a Violent Encounter with Active Self Protection If you aren’t already aware of the Active Self Protection (ASP) facebook page, you should be. Over there, John creates his own video breakdowns of violent encounters that have been captured on some sort of camera, and shows the realities of what can happen during a violent encounter. It isn’t pretty. It isn’t some Hollywood gunfight where everyone gets a chance to get to cover and they shoot it out from a distance. Oftentimes, its up close and messy. First, when did you start ASP and what motivated you to start it? Have you noticed a recent uptick in followers and people inquiring about things due to recent events? What are some of the most common misconceptions you hear from people regarding violent encounters? We all make mistakes, but some mistakes can be so serious they cost us our life. What are some common “tactical” errors you’ve seen when studying violent encounters that caused the person to be behind the curve in terms of an effective response? We hear a lot of people choosing to go with a less-lethal option sometimes such as pepper spray or a taser. In your experience, what sort of effectiveness have you seen when people use these implements? In your opinion, what is the most important part of a self-defense plan/attitude? One thing I have stressed to people who say they want to start carrying a firearm is “if you had to defend yourself, would you be willing to pull the trigger on another human being”? It’s a grisly reality, but if you don’t think you’d be able to do that, you may end up in a worse situation, perhaps becoming overpowered & disarmed. Do you see a lot of psychological factors that can hinder a proper defensive response? What are some of the most important lessons you’ve taken away from the video series you do on the ASP facebook page? What is your idea of a good defensive setup? Where can people find more information about ASP and follow you? With that, we will wrap up the main topic and close out the show! Thanks John so much for coming on the show! I really appreciate it!

With that, we will head into the main topic, The Gun Collective with Chaos311Clarity Main Topic: Chaos311Clarity evolution into The Gun Collective Longtime fans of the Chaos311Clarity YouTube channel and Facebook page will have noticed the recent into something called the Gun Collective. This week, we have with us Jon Patton, the man behind The Gun Collective, to discuss his new venture! To understand where you’re going, we should hear about the path you’ve taken so far. How did your channel/page originally start out? What sorts of challenges did you encounter when you first started doing the page and YouTube channel? What caused the evolution from the Chaos311Clarity page & name to the new Gun Collective brand? When someone has just finished watching a video from The Gun Collective, what is it you want them to take away from the information? In your opinion, what is something you feel is lacking the in the firearms industry media (print/video/blogs)? How can we change that? One thing I noted watching your first episode of The Gun Collective was that when you talked about the news subject, you were clear, concise and to the point but without being overly sensational or exaggerating the subject matter like some people can do. A lot of times everything is portrayed as the biggest fire & brimstone event to occur relating to firearms rights. Do you feel that a levelheaded presentation of the facts is a key component to getting the information out to as wide an audience as possible? What is the gameplan for The Gun Collective? Do you plan on being a strongly video driven site, or a combination of video and text style blogging? What are some of the cool guns & gear that you have lined up for TGC? Not entirely related to TGC, but I’d like to hear more about that .500 S&W Lever Action. What’s the story behind that rifle? With that, we will wrap up the main topic and close out the show! Well Jon it has been a pleasure to speak with you! Where can people find more information and where can they stay updated on everything with The Gun Collective?
