Most of this show is listener feedback but I also give a summary of The Real World Gun match I’ll be shooting this Thanksgiving weekend.  So stay tuned next week for the results of what happened. However, I do explain the differences between Real World Gun and IDPA. I also answer listener’s questions about holsters, throwing yogurt at vehicles, arm extension, carrying a Kahr, carrying a Taurus, tuckable holsters, practice techniques and more. Please remember to join me at the Gun Rights Radio Network Forum, YouTube, Facebook and Shooters Legion. Be thankful you live in an area where you can own and carry a gun to defend yourself (if you do) this Thanksgiving Holiday and have a great weekend!

Why do handguns jam and malfunction?  In this episode I’ll answer that and give you some personal experiences to go with it.  Often times it’s not the gun’s fault.  Sometimes it is.  I’ll explain both and discuss what’s related to ammunition, what’s related to gun parts and what’s the manufactureres fault.

Highlights:

  • The importance of good magazines.
  • The importance of cleaning.
  • Dirty chambers.
  • Stovepiping.
  • Inspecting the feed lips of your magazines.
  • Failure to go into battery.
  • Recoil springs.
  • How to clear a jam.

Thanks for listening to the show.
