Hey, today on the show, we've got Matt Hurt with Daniel Defense.

We're talking down defense rifles, but also new Daniel Defense Suppressors.

This gun talk nation is brought to you by Franklin Armory.

Welcome into gun talk nation. Today on gun talk nation, I'm not alone. How about that? Good.

In the studio, Matt Hurt, down defense. Welcome in, man.

Thank you. I appreciate you having us.

Yeah, so you're in town because we're doing a class, and we should talk about that.

We have this new training facility, and Dan Defense is sponsoring a carbine class,

but it's interesting to me because you guys are such like a high end to me,

a high end AR manufacturer, and this is carbine essentials. This is kind of a class look.

Anybody can learn something. It doesn't matter your skill level, but it's kind of the,

hey, let's start out from the basics. Right. Right. It's such a good reminder, though,

and I was telling the guys outside, even I've been with the company for nine years,

and it's always worth going back to that. It's always worth going back to the basics and

learning the basics and reminding yourself the simple steps to learn how to operate and manipulate

this rifle. And I enjoy it. I love going back and doing this. This is great.

Well, Serena always says, what does the football team say when they lose a game,

the coach says, we're going to go back to the basics. He's like, well, if the basics were so

important, why do we leave them in the first place? I mean, Dan Defense, to me, is an interesting

company because the firearms industry is made up. There's certainly a ton of innovation,

and especially in the last 10, 15 years, a ton of innovation. But it's also made up of these

companies who are 100, 150, 200 years old. And you guys are like this big company in our world
