About This Episode:
In this episode, I chat with Bill Dermody and James Williamson from Heckler & Koch at SHOT Show 2026 about the company’s rich history and commitment to quality. James, a Marine Corps veteran, discusses the importance of teamwork and rigorous testing processes, while Bill highlights HK’s supportive culture that drives collaboration.
We delve into the passion of HK enthusiasts and reveal plans for expanding their product line, all while maintaining high standards. I also encourage listeners to explore armorers courses to enhance their appreciation of HK firearms and share exciting podcast milestones ahead.
As always, any questions or suggestions for future episodes can be submitted to podcast@concealedcarry.com!
