Here's the deal. We got to set ourselves up. See, retirement is the long game. We got to make moves and make them early. Set up goals. Don't worry about a setback. Just save up and stack up to reach them. Let's put ourselves in the right position. Pregame to greater things.

Welcome to Tom Gresham's Gun Talk, where there's more to talk about than shooting.

There's reloading and hunting and self-defense, too.

The promise of it.

That's right.

You're not the Jesus. That's right. You're not the lexies. That's right, you're not from Texas, but I'll tell you what

Texas, holy cow, holy cow, Texas, Texas, but I'll tell you what, I kind of would like to be these days.

Holy cow, Texas Governor Rick Perry using his own personal firearm in self-defense.

I love it, so to speak, Mr. Love it.

I don't know if you heard this.

This was about a week, week and a half ago.

Texas governor is out for a run. He's got a labrower retriever with him. As I read the various reports, it sounds like it was a puppy, or at least a young dog, belonged to one of his kids. And he's out running at this kind of remote area. It surprised me. He didn't have any security with him. Well, actually he did.

He had security with him in the form of a Ruger LCP 380 pistol with a crimson trace laser guard sight on it.

Coyote comes up, eyeballs this dog, and I guess Perry yelled at it, ran at it, couldn't get

this coyote to move or do anything, so he pulled

out his pistol and shot it, plugged it, killed it, stoned it.

That thing is dead.
