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.

Hey, this is Tom Gresham. You're listening to a reloaded version of Gun Talk. Today, we get to talk about guns. Spent the entire day. By the way, I'm Tom Gresham, if you don't know. And our number, if you want to join us, 866, 825-5-4-86. Just dial one Tom Talk guns. You can shoot me an email also tom at gun talk.com and yeah yeah yeah

we've got the Facebook thing going we got the Twitter thing going so you can do all of that yeah

we're connected we have some fun I know I sound like I'm in a hurry but it's only because

this is way too much fun I just enjoy talking about guns and our sport and self-defense and responsible gun ownership

and bringing new people into shooting.

I spent the entire day yesterday at the range.

And I mean, we were there at 630.

Heat index was 109.

It was hot.

And it was a commemoration or a celebration or a recognition or whatever of 9-11.

It was a one-day class on the AR-15, which I have dubbed America's Rif rifle, the AR-15.

It had a dozen people out there, everybody from, well, you know, butcher baker,

candlestick maker, had a lady oncologist, a cancer doctor out there, a dentist,

a police officer, SWAT officer.

It was an interesting group of folks all out there.

And we were shooting video for, it's our first shoot for our newest television show,

Gun Talk Television, which will begin airing in January.

Going to do some different things with that.

That's going to be a whole bunch of fun. But, you know, just a chance to get together, talk with people about their guns, about why do you have a gun? What do you do with it? What kind of background do you have? How did you get into it? What do you have there? What kind of do-duds and gadgets and accessories do you have on there? You know, that type of thing. It was, I'm telling you, everybody was having a ball.

It was hot. It was miserable. And yet, everybody was smiling. Well, why not? Why wouldn't it? You get to go out and put about 500 rounds through your AR and get some really good instruction. You know, and that's one of things I was going to point out.
