About This Episode:

In this episode, I, Riley Bowman, along with Jacob Paulsen, explore critical gun safety violations commonly seen at shooting ranges as we launch our 13th season. We discuss three prevalent issues outlined in Jacob’s article, including unsafe reholstering practices, unsafe direction during administrative handling, and the “lingering finger” phenomenon.

Emphasizing the importance of quality gear and self-awareness, we urge listeners to foster a culture of accountability in gun safety. We wrap up by sharing resources for continued training, reinforcing that personal responsibility is key to safe firearm handling.

This is the article we reference in the show: The 3 Most Common Safety Violations At The Gun Range

0:00.0	This is the Concealed Carry podcast, Season 13, episode number one.
0:15.1	And welcome to the Concealed Carry podcast, part of the Concealed Carry.com network,
0:20.1	brought to you by HK. Today is Friday, January 9th,
0:25.3	2026. This is so strange, Jacob. I mean, episode or season 13, the year 2026. What else is new?
0:35.1	But welcome to the new year, everybody. This is the first time we're recording,
0:41.9	I think, in the new year. We're a couple days later than we wanted to be, but it's been a busy week. How are you? Tell folks about, you know, what we've had going on. Yeah, this week was
0:49.4	a box week, as I think internally we refer to it. It's a week when we assemble and ship out all the
0:55.3	Guardian gear boxes, which is always a lot of work for our small, small little band of gun pirates.
1:02.3	I mean, it takes time and energy. It's sort of like, you know, with the normal website sales we do,
1:09.7	you know, like if you were to take that typical daily shipping volume for normal average day sales, and then times that by like, what, 10?
1:21.6	I don't know.
1:22.8	Well, I mean, in the number of orders, it'd be like times 10 or 15 or something, but then you have to consider that like most orders we get on our website are not for seven items true true right right like assemble a box pick this off a shelf pick this off and obviously we're able to build an efficient assembly line so it's not as bad as it sounds but yeah it takes a lot of time anyway that's an all hands-on-deck deal for you know about a week yeah so
1:48.0	we wanted to do the podcast a few days ago but it just had a lot on our plates and anyway here we

2:03.6	So, and we said goodbye to season 12, and here we are in season 13,
2:07.6	which might be a little confusing some folks.
2:09.6	It's just the way things are numbered now,
2:11.6	even though this marks our 10th year of the podcast.
2:14.6	Next month is the 10 year anniversary since we released our first episode.
2:21.0	Yeah, yeah, the seasons, I mean, the first, the first episodes, one through 500 makes up season one.
2:27.8	Right. So that's the most confusing element. And then from there, we kind of, you know, it just varies.
2:33.4	Roughly two seasons a year, maybe more, maybe less.
