Summary

This week on the Active Self Protection Podcast we sit down with Venezuelan Immigrant and Competitive Olympic Shooter Gabby Franco and discuss the importance of the Second Amendment and how it can be slowly eroded if not protected. Then we sit down with investigative reporter Stephen Gutowski of thereload.com and talk about the surprisingly low number of people registering their pistol brace-equipped firearms with the ATF. Active Self Protection exists to help good, sane, sober, moral, prudent people in all walks of life to more effectively protect themselves and their loved ones from criminal violence. On the ASP Podcast you will hear the true stories of life or death self defense encounters from the men and women that lived them. If you are interested in the Second Amendment, self defense and defensive firearms use, martial arts or the use of less lethal tools used in the real world to defend life and family, you will find this show riveting. Join host and career federal agent Mike Willever as he talks to real life survivors and hear their stories in depth. You'll hear about these incidents and the self defenders from well before the encounter occurred on through the legal and emotional aftermath. Music: bensound.com
