Summary

As we lock and load for yet another trip to yet another SHOT Show, we're discussing the slow but seismic shifts that we've seen across the firearm world; everything from ATF pressure, legal wins for firearm freedoms, the emerging Citizen Defense Industry, and just last week, a major leadership shakeup for the NRA.

Last year was our best SHOT Show ever in terms of overall unity and practical conversations, and it introduced some new tools and suppliers for folks in the industry.
As we prepare to engage in pivotal conversations at the upcoming show, we want your input on who we should be talking to.

0:00.0	Well, it's a new year, which means, of course, that it's time for us to go to Shot Show again.
0:11.8	Welcome to another episode of T-Rex Talk, and today we're going to be talking about our preparations
0:17.7	to go to Shot Show. There's been a bunch of stuff that has happened since the
0:22.8	last shot show, and there's a bunch of stuff that's happened just recently this week that is
0:27.5	probably going to have an effect. One of those things is the resignation of Wayne LaPierre.
0:33.8	For years and years and years, Wayne has run the NRA with an iron fist controlling the people
0:39.5	on the board and all of the people who are basically involved. And I think he's really mismanaged
0:45.2	the company and eroded a lot of trust and misused a lot of funds. And so him stepping down is
0:51.0	kind of a big deal, which I don't know how much it's going to affect what
0:56.4	actually happens at shot show, but it's going to be a big part of a lot of the conversations.
1:01.2	And a lot of that is because of some stuff that happened last year.
1:06.5	So let's go back to last year's shot show.
1:09.7	We didn't make a video video i actually shot a couple of
1:13.1	interviews with people and some video on the floor but most of the conversations that i had
1:18.1	uh were sort of private conversations and the other conversation that i had ended up being
1:23.4	private conversations because of uh microphone failure and then I met to do a recap of the
1:29.9	shot show conversations on the podcast and somehow it just never happened. But last year's
1:35.7	shot show was, in my opinion, the best shot show that I have ever been to. And the reasons for that
1:41.3	are many. Number one, it had been a nice long break since I was at
1:45.3	Shot Show last, so I enjoyed seeing people again as opposed to being annoyed that I was in
1:51.8	Las Vegas once more. Over the years that I have been going to Shot Show, I've gotten to know
1:56.9	enough people that the Shot Show experience is connecting with associates and friends as
