Still Crazy Busy...

...but I should be able to tinker together a blog post late this afternoon. I note that George Harris has left the Sig Academy...George is one of the most talented and original instructors I've ever worked with...expect to see him on SHOOTING GALLERY's special training segments next season. I also note that the NRA's AMERICAN GUARDIAN TV show has been cancelled, leaving another world-class instructor, Sheriff Jim Wilson, adrift. I doubt that either of these superb trainers will be adrift for long!

Interesting point — I went to Planet Boulder to get my motorcycle registration renewed yesterday and found a new sign on the county building door...NO OPEN CARRY. Once the sign said no guns, then the sign went away, and now it's no open carry. As I said, interesting.

Mo' later...

Sad day to hear that American Guardian is cnaceled. I hope Sheriff Jim Wilson isn't adrift for too long I always value his common sense approach to senarios presented on the program. His experince & his ability to share it with viewers is a valuable asset I always look forward to.

Does Colorado have preemption? Or can the PRB enact it's own laws?

Colorado has preemption...Denver's been fighting it for years under some kind of home rule statute, but Boulder has pretty much sucked it up. Ironically, I got my first permit in Boulder long before Colorado went shall issue...I think I was permit 141 issued.

Not too surprising that American Guardian's been cancelled. When Chad left for 3Gun Nation, there was a marked drop in production values and show quality. As much as I value Sheriff Jim's instruction, he's a tad laid-back for a typical show host.

That being said, they offered up a couple shows this last season that'll be permanently stored on my TiVo (right next to the Active Shooter and Elevator Attack episodes of Best Defense :) ).

The upside is, there's now a hole in the Wednesday night lineup for an hour-long Shooting Gallery! :)

Also, what's the latest on SWAT TV? Now that Rob is moving on from co-hosting Best Defense, will he still be hosting that show?

Tell him to shave his head and grow a goatee, and hire him!

Maybe they would have had more viewers if they had programming that wasn't just for the "I've never seen or held a gun before" crowd. Show after show after show.
I know there are a bunch of handgun newbies now and everybody needs to start with the basics but 7-9 steps to draw a gun from a belt holster? Geez...wake me when you get past "the pointy end goes that way".

Agreed. The NRA PPOSTH episodes that they have been re-running the last few weeks are just painful to watch. It's like pulling teeth.

As far as production quality falling off goes, did anyone see that episode where they reviewed a shotgun (I think it was the 887 tactical) and the segment intro screen and the specs screen were for a Ruger Hawkeye. My first thought was "how did someone not notice that?".

Change his name to Mike and he is a shoe in!
