Roy's Bartlett, the keeper in the bearer of truth.
Only the facts about the Second Amendment. And never ever forget that all gun
control laws are nothing less than overt acts of aggression against the American
people and their rights. And exercise your rights in a safe way. Stupidity to think
that One hell bent on violating the law against murder will magically be stopped by
a gun control law. Politicians that infringe on our God -given rights,
he calls him out, he's not here to play.
So turn it on, tune in, crank it up,
voice Bartlett, And the shooting straight show.
Let's go! Let's go!
Well, you heard the man, he said it twice. Let's go. We are locked, loaded, and
loud on the Shooting Straight Radio podcast. This is the program all about firearms
with a heavy emphasis on the Second Amendment, and all things pertaining there too.

on Facebook and on Instagram. Check out the new logo there and give us a like and
a share, and I sure would appreciate that. All right. I don't think I have to tell
you that leftist violence is ratcheting up. I don't think I have to tell you that
you should have been started preparing months ago, and if you're not prepared,
you need to start now. You're going to get caught flat -footed, and you're going to
find yourself at the mercy of others, and that is not ever a good place where you
want to be. You don't want to have to depend on other people to bring food to you
or to find drinking water for you or to find any alternative food sources or
anything like that. So you better get to preparing for those things now,
you need to start preparing for communications, too. We'll talk more about that in
just a little bit. But because this leftist violence is ranching,
ranching up, you had better start getting prepared.
We don't carry number four buck out at where I work, so I went to my buddy Steve
Kennedy's store out there at the gun site, Merritt Island to buy some there. I like
number four buck. It's a lot more pellets to it, and it distance,
it spreads out more, and you can actually cover more targets that way,
so to speak. So that's one of the ways that I've been preparing, you know, in
shotgun, ammo, different specialty types of ammunition for my carbines and such and
things like that especially if you have to start using them indoors. You don't want
to have overpenetration issues and things like that. But again, we're getting prepped
up because of leftist violence. And there's a lot of it being aimed at much higher
figures now. One was the active duty space force officer Jason and his wife,
Kaylee Taylor. They're both space force officers. Their home was broken into.
daughter against a donut of the politics of the person or persons that did that.
Fortunately, the couple was out of town with their infant daughter because their home
was totally destroyed. They set up a gun, go fund me, and that's been doing pretty
good to get them back on their feet, but they also lost their pet cat in the
fire. but listen
you being inside your home and a group of scumbags comes and tries to burn you and
your entire family alive in your home? Well, that's exactly what they did to these
people. I think if they'd have been home, they'd probably be dead right now.
So it's also cranking up where Now there's been gunshots fired at Vice President
Vance's home. Yes, somebody did a drive -by shooting on his home Monday morning,
and the police say they have a suspect in custody. They got the call.
The U .S. Secret Service actually got the call around 12 .15 a .m. And apparently
someone, there was a witness that said they saw somebody running eastbound, and they
managed to capture the person. The Secret Service made a statement and said the U
.S. Secret Service is coordinating with the Cincinnati Police Department and the U .S.
Attorney's Office as charging decisions are reviewed. So keep your eye on that.
See how that case goes. The point I'm making with these two anecdotal stories is if
you, if these people will attack this high up,
so to speak, people, vice president and the commanders of space force,
if they'll do that, they won't think nothing about burning you and your family up
in your own home too. Don't think they, or do a drive -by shooting at your home.
They wouldn't think nothing of it. I promise you that. So they are cranking things
up. They have been, shoot, all throughout 2025, the leftist,
as one writer put it, crossed the Rubicon when it came to normalizing their
political violence. And that's exactly what they have been doing. They praised that
guy Luigi, whatever his name was, for murdering a health care CEO. Now, whether or
not the man, quote, unquote, deserved it or not remains to be seen. I mean,
if he was doing gain of function research for the COVID virus, well, not that I'd
give him a pass, but I might tell him thank you. Never mind.
But Not only that, look at what we talked about last week. We talked about a man
who was elected to the Virginia state government,
along with two other filthy communists and the governor and lieutenant governor's
position. And Jay Jones, who is now the Virginia Attorney General elect,
he made some comments prior to being elected where
are nasty and violent. They have our demise in mind.
They think nothing, they would think nothing about killing us if they thought they
could get away with it. This is why you need to be preparing. This is why you
need to be carrying a good, reliable, high capacity handgun with you at all times.
Because it's not just these people, it's also their jihadi friends that formed this
M &M coalition, the Marxist and Muslim coalition, and they are going to be doing
some nasty things here. I mean, look, if they're targeting the vice president's house
for a drive -by,
this gives you some idea of how bent and determined they are and waging war against
us. I mean, we've known this for a while. They've been trying to disarm us for a
while, and that's an act of war. But now they're really stepping it up. They're
coming out, they're bold, and you'll notice not one Democrat elected official,
not one Democrat legislator, has spoken up against this violence since it's been
starting to peak really first they targeted pete hegseth they said he was a nazi uh
and uh they had some lady that wanted to uh wanted to uh wanted to kill him
brought two monotov cocktails and a folding knife said she planned on killing the
nazi pete hexis and a matter of fact she also included if she could find Speaker
Johnson she was going to take him down too okay you you see you now where the
level of violence is ratcheting up here not only that look what happened when Elon
Musk was associated with Trump when he started his Doge program when Trump was
elected a third time and Look what they started doing to Tesla vehicles.
How many of those things got burned up? I don't know. You know what? I didn't look
up the numbers on it, but it was a lot. I remember reading about it all the time.
People torching Tesla's to protest Elon Musk and protest Doge.
I mean, good grief. All they want to do is cut wasteful spending. But they're out
there chanting burn a Tesla, save democracy and other crap like that. You got the
vandalization of the New Mexico GOP headquarters. It was vandalized.
They threw fire bombs at it. Then the National Jewish Museum was shot up.
Shot and killed a Jewish couple there, Yaron Lachenski and Sarah Milgram outside that
and they caught the guy that did that. He's facing charges. But this is the stuff
that's going on. Murders, wanton violence, arson,
bombings, and it goes on and on. Then you have also the attacks against the ICE
agents where a Matter of fact, I think there have been over a hundred ramming
attacks just over the past year. As a matter of fact, since 2024.
Think about that. A hundred different people trying to use their vehicles as weapons
against federal officers who were trying to simply remove illegal aliens from this
country. Well, they don't like that because they're taking their voters away and
everything else. So then you have the shooting at the Annunciation Church,
a transgender person shot a couple of kids there, injured like 30 of them.
Two of them died. Then you have that other trans shooter that shot up the
Presbyterian school there, whatever it was there. And just the seething,
anti -American, anti -Jesus, anti -God sentiment that is flowing through the veins of
the left, it's getting downright scary and sickening. Not to mention the fact, you
look at Charlie Kirk's assassination, and people are still cheering about that. Some
flaming jackass invaded one of my feeds on social media and began applauding the
marksmen and making all manner of vulgar references to Charlie Kirk's neck and just
being a plain, plain old jackass just to put it politely.
So this is what's going on, people. I know most of you out there are stocked up
on firearms and ammo and Hopefully you've stocked up some dry goods and some canned
goods and maybe some emergency rations, things like that. I want to just briefly
talk to you for just a minute before the break about what are you doing for
communications? What do you do when the standard communications infrastructure goes
down and it can very easily? I mean, it doesn't take much to blow up one of those
cell towers and that's exactly what they were probably trying.
matter of fact, the link for these walkie -talkies, matter of fact, I own these same
walkie -talkies. They're the GMRS, the General Mobile Radio Service,
and you can get up to 35 -mile range on those things. And I'm not talking about
the smooth terrain in perfect conditions. I'm talking about you get really good
distance on it. Plus, there are active radio signal repeaters all over every state
in the union and you can access those repeaters and use them also to communicate
through. So get a GMRS radio. You get a lot better range than the standard walkie
-talkies, a lot more clarity, and you can also use external antennas on them,
and like I said, they allow a use with established repeaters,
radio signal repeaters near you. There's like, I don't know, I don't know how many
of them here in Florida, but I know there's a couple of them very close to me in
my county, and they're less than 35 miles away, so I can actually extend my range
on them. You do have to get a license, but it's a very straightforward process.
It's inexpensive. It's $35, and one license covers an entire family,
and there's no testing required in order to get the license for the GMRS.
That's Gulf Mike Romeo Sierra. Make sure you get a GMRS radio.
That way, like I said, if the communications infrastructure fails, you've got some
reliable communication, especially if you got a neighborhood group put together, you
guys should have these things. The link that I've got to these radios is on Amazon,
and you can get a single, a double, or a package of three.
So get some of those. They're water resistant. You get good weather alerts. Long
battery life, they're very user -friendly, and it's easy for a beginner,
a total beginner, to figure out these things. So get a GMRS radio to add to your
other supplies you've been stocking up on. I do hope that also includes medical
supplies, trauma supplies. I know you hear me harp about that a lot here, but a
lot of you still don't have them. I still running to some of you out there, and
you say, hey, love your program, Royce. And then I started asking them, well, how
are you doing preparation -wise? Now, well, you got guns, ammo?
Well, now I need to get some more ammo. You got trauma supplies? No, I probably
should get some of those soon, too. Basically, what they're telling me is, I don't
find it that important. No, really, if you found it important, you would go get it.
You would purchase it day. You would get online and start ordering things right now
if you knew how quickly all of this violence could just flash over and this whole
country be awash in confusion, unrest, and chaos. And what are you going to do
then? Well, you hope you've been listening to this program long enough that you're
getting ready and you are stocking up on things. I know I am, but don't you come
to my house. I didn't stock up on everything just to take care of you and your
family. I got everything for me and my family, and you need to take care of yours.
So be the ant and not the grasshopper, okay? All right.
We'll be right back after these brief commercial messages, and we're going to look
at some impending legislation. It has not been voted on yet.
It is being proposed, and it is,
uh where they want to impose nationwide licensing for firearm ownership nationwide not
just in their home state that they've already wrecked no they want the entire
country to be at the uh what should i say uh at the mercy of the government yes
they want us all to be unarmed victims and waiting uh Well, they just want
licensing, Royce. They didn't say anything about banning. Well, licensing, precedes
registration, precedes confiscation, precedes internment camps,
and genocide. Be right back with more Shooting Straight.

Let's create your musical idea.
just listening to them talk and the idiocy that drips out of their mouth when
they're on the floor in Congress just is cringeworthy at minimum. But this is an
article by Jose Nino, writing for Ammo Land Incorporated, and the title of the
article is New Jersey Senators Push Nationwide Licensing System for Firearms Ownership.
Yeah, they're not content to disarm their own citizens there in New Jersey. They
want to inflict their totalitarian impulses upon the entire country. Now,
first of all, I want to know who these people think they are. Senator Cory Booker
and Senator Andy Kim, both of them, Democrat communists from New Jersey. I want to
know who they think they are to propose, even, you know, propose something like
this, much less try to get it passed. You know, the arrogance and the elitist
attitude somebody has to have in order to say, I'm going to craft a law that
infringes and impedes the free exercise of one of your rights because I don't trust
you to do so safely. Hmm. Well, that's what they're saying to us,
basically. We don't trust you with guns. Now, I said before they're not just trying
to disarm all people They're only trying to disarm conservatives They want their
people armed too But that is exactly the attitude in play here We're so far above
you We can tell you which of your rights You may freely exercise if we allow it
And you're going to have to get licensed to do so Here's the article by Jose Nino.
Senators Cory Booker and Senator Andy Kim, both of them Democrat Communists from New
Jersey, have introduced sweeping legislation that would fundamentally transform how
Americans purchase firearms, requiring federal government approval before any citizen
could legally acquire a gun. So this is a permit to purchase.
This is like a national FOID card like they have in Illinois. All right,
you have to get a card just to make the purchase. So you've got to get government
approval to freely exercise a right that you were born with. The Federal Firearm
Licensing Act introduced on December 17, 2025, would mandate that every American
obtain a federal firearm license before purchasing or receiving any firearm.
Well, that includes private transfers too. The proposal represents one of the most
comprehensive federal gun control measures in recent years. Establishing a nationwide
licensing system that would place significant new requirements between law -abiding
citizens and their Second Amendment rights. Yeah. Of course, they're going to say
It's not that much of a burden on your rights, on the free exercise of your
rights. Well, you're not allowed to put any burden on the free exercise of our
rights. Don't tell us, oh, well, it's just a minor thing. Get over it. It's not a
big deal to have to register your guns or get a permission slip to purchase them.
It's not a big deal. Yes, it is a big deal. It absolutely is a big deal because
licensing automatically wrestles power from the citizenry into the government's hands.
That's right. Licensing grants the government control of your rights.
That's just the bottom line. Anytime they pull the license, there goes your right.
Or at least they think. Under the proposed legislation, Americans would need to
complete mandatory firearm safety training that includes both written testing and hands
-on instruction before qualifying for a license. By the way, if this does get voted
into law, you can bet that the written testing and the hands -on instruction and
everything else is going to morph into a monstrous impot.
To monitor license holders. What?
You mean like stop people, just out of the blue and show me the papers?
You mean like that? I think that's what they're alluding to. The FBI can just do
spot compliance check to monitor your compliance with this license holding crap?
Hmm. Each license would expire after five years. Wow.
Requiring gun owners to renew their permission to purchase firearms. So they're
essentially putting an expiration date on your rights. First, you have to lease your
right back in the form of a license, a permit, a permission slip, whatever you want
to call it. After five years, that right expires again unless you renew the
government's permission slip to freely exercise that right. Like I said before, it
takes some supreme arrogance for an elected official to assume they have some sort
of rightful power or status that qualifies them to demand that all citizens bow to
their will and their licensing schemes. These people actually think they're far above
us. And I've had about enough of that crap. I don't know about you. Of course,
universal background checks are going to be part of this. They're going to slip it
in. It says the bill would also fundamentally alter how Americans can buy and sell
firearms privately. Unlicensed individuals can no longer transfer guns directly to
other unlicensed individuals. Instead, all transactions would need to flow through
licensed dealers who would conduct the background checks. So all this licensing flying
around here. Also, selling or transferring a firearm to somebody without a valid
federal or state license issued within the previous 30 days would become illegal,
with sellers required to report such transactions to law enforcement.
Wow. How many of think you're going to comply with this crap at all? I know I'm
not going to one bit. And I'm going to go ahead and issue another call to law
enforcement officials out there. If you enforce any of this crap,
you are on the wrong side. You are on the side of treason in totalitarianism,
and you are placing yourself in direct opposition to we the people, and you are
essentially declaring yourself as an enemy of the people and the Constitution. So you
better get things squared away right now in your heart and mind about what you're
going to allow yourself to enforce. And I am sick to death of hearing, well, I'm
just doing my job. It didn't work at Nuremberg. It ain't going to work later,
okay? They're basically saying, you mere mortals must be held accountable to us
leftists in order to freely exercise your God -given rights. Of course,
Booker had to appeal to recent tragedies and shootings like the one at Brown
University and others. That's just what they do. That's what leftists do.
They invoke tragedy and dead gunshot victims to push their totalitarian crap through
on an emotional wave because without an emotional wave, they know it will fall flat.
When it starts getting scrutinized with the facts, it goes to crap. And they know
that. So if they keep the emotions ginned up, well, they know nobody's going to,
nobody has the right to question anybody's emotions. Oh, yes, we do. We absolutely
do, especially when it comes to infringing on our rights. Booker said, every day
Americans face the relentless scourge of gun violence. Wow,
that's quite a
picture you're drawing there, scourge of gun violence. Well, I'll tell you what, the
gun violence is nowhere near the scourge that medical malpractice is or unchecked
immigration is yeah i won't go there i won't go there right now but i'm yeah
medical malpractice kills 16 times more americans annually than gunshots do so there
you go take that with you um he's uh he said uh the most recently the shootings
at Brown University, which claimed the lives of two students and left nine others
critically wounded. Yeah, well, that was committed by one of your jihad Joe friends
there, Corey, baby. Yeah, yeah, one of your Muslim buddies, part of your M &M
coalition. Yeah, he shouted out repeatedly, Al -Aqbar, before he used to open fire.
Yeah, for some reason, the media sat on that and wouldn't let that information out.
Why would they do something like that? Yeah, that was a rhetorical question.
Well, what you're saying then is licensing is going to fix all that.
Licensing would have made it so that Brown University shooting would never have
happened. Sandy Hook would have never happened. Columbine would have never happened.
Oh, the Parkland disaster would never have happened if this licensing scheme would
have been in place. Yeah, that's about as foolish as it sounds.
Tell us how well licensing will work out to keep bad people from shooting innocent
people, especially considering the recent Jihad Joe's there in Australia shot their
victims with licensed
safe? Well, really, how would your proposed legislation make community safe?
From who? Law -abiding people? That's all this is targeting, and you know it.
It's funny, you guys seek to enforce these things heavily against the people that
you know good and dadgum well aren't the ones out there shooting other ball. But of
course, we know what your real motive is. Just as well as you know what your real
motive is, Mr. Booker, and your motive is also Mr. Kim and every other filthy
godless Democrat communist than Jihad Joe. We know what your motive is. You want us
disarmed so you can start running the trains, taking us to the camps, and
liquidating us wholesale. That's exactly what you've got in mind. Don't try to lie
and don't try to cover it up. We know you're a filthy little heart better than you
do.
So you've got to remember. Congress has already passed a plethora of gun control
laws since 1934, none of which have done anything to actually curb violent crime.
There's over 20 ,000 gun control laws on the books throughout all 50 states combined,
and what have they done? Matter of fact, there's some states that have this magical
package that Booker's trying to sell us, this snake oil, and for some reason,
their crime rates actually spike.
It's not funny how that works. What, universal background checks? Yeah, well,
California has that. Oh, registration, gun licensing?
Illinois has that. Look at Chicago. There's a lot of states that have all your pet
gun control laws already in place, and for some reason, they're not seeing any kind
of precipitous drop -invited crime due to those laws. What they are seeing is a drop
in violent crime due to good people, shooting bad people in the freaking face when
they try to accost them. So the best way to curb violent crime is to allow the
intended victim pool to carry guns to defend themselves with. That's the smart thing
to do. That's how you really do it. You don't pass stupid laws, aim them at the
general public and hope it works. Of course, we know good don't hope it works. They
don't, they know this ain't going to work any better than any of their other gun
control laws. This is just one more step, uh, to the eventual destination of total
confiscation and then liquidation of their enemies. Yes, extermination of their
enemies. They said the federal firearm licensing act brings this common sense idea to
every community in the nation, mandating background checks and proper training before
a license is issued. Background checks. You mean like using the current NICS system
that has a 95 to 98 % failure rate when it comes to false positives? You're talking
about that system? That background check system? Mm -hmm. Senator Kim echoed these
sentiments stating that, quote,
and claiming families are coming to you and wringing their hands and saying, oh,
save us from gun violence, Mr. Kim and Mr. Booker, please help us be our
superheroes. How do laws protect anybody from anything? As long as there's people
that don't care about laws, you know, like Democrats, laws ain't going to do crap.
The legislation has drawn support from gun violence advocacy organizations They're not
gun control advocacy organizations They are anti -rights advocacy organizations Giffords
and the Community Justice Action Fund Have endorsed the bill Of course they have
While co -sponsors include Senator Brian Shats from Hawaii Elizabeth Warren from
Massachusetts Richard Blumenthal That lying He's a scumbag trash.
Adam Schiff.
I would love to get into an M .MA ring with him for just give me 60 seconds,
please.
Alex Padilla from California, another vile little communist, and Mazzirono,
also from Hawaii. So they think if we shoved through this licensing package,
or at least they want you to think this, they know good and dad -go -m well, it
ain't going to work. They want you to believe that if we shove through this
licensing package and all of us surrender our God -given rights to the government and
we allow them to take control of the free exercise of our right via licensing that
communities will be safer. Yeah.
And I went riding unicorns yesterday with Bigfoot out in the enchanted forest. Yeah.
You know, this is a false equivalency. Because Booker said, well, we have to license
car drivers, then gun owners should be licensed too. Well, that's a false
equivalency. You're drawing a comparison between privileges and rights,
and the two are not the same. Driving is.
But driving is a luxury. I mean, you can get transportation via multiple venues in
this country. So it's not like you couldn't find another way to travel if you
didn't have a car. But driving is a luxury. It's a luxury for those that can
afford a vehicle, can afford the insurance, can afford the upkeep. And it's nothing
compared to a firearm ownership. Cars
are very useful. They're very essential to our lives in this modern day and age,
and they still remain, for all intents and purposes, a luxury.
Some cars are more luxurious than others. I don't care. Anything gets you from point
A to point B as a vehicle, all right? A lot of people across the world function
without ever owning or operating a vehicle. And of course, that is especially true
in China where most of them ride bicycles. Other Asian countries where the bicycle
is the standard mode of transportation. Then they also have public transportation and
trains and subways and things like that. For that matter, walking is a method of
transportation, and the ability to own and operate a car for the average person is
a matter of convenience and lifestyle choice, but not survival. Owning a gun is
essential to our survival, not only as individuals, but also as a nation.
The guns are not a luxury. They are what we use to protect ourselves,
and a lot of times, having a firearm makes the difference between life and death.
And that is not overstating things, because every day here in this country, and you
can read the studies on this, matter of fact, there was a center for disease
control study that actually came out and said, yeah, people in America, between
anywhere from 500 ,000 to 3 million times per year use a firearm to defend
themselves, and 99 % of the time that happens without ever a shot being fired.
Good. These are cases what we're talking about here where ordinary citizens like you
and me were faced with threats of imminent violence and they were able to stop that
threat either by show of force or by use of force because they simply had a
firearm. Having a firearm is not a luxury that the government doles out upon us.
No, no, no, no, no. It is a right and it is absolutely a necessity.
Think about this. If your car doesn't start in the morning. What are the
implications? All right, you might not make it to work on time. You might not make
it to work at all. You might miss one day of work or two, maybe, depending on how
bad the breakdown of your vehicle is. But not having access to your vehicle,
there are other options for you. There are other public transportation modes you can
use also. But if your firearm is not accessible,
or if it is not working properly, or if it's been restricted from your use by a
bunch of onerous regulations, you might be defenseless in a very life -threatening
situation, and therefore you can't tell me that ownership of a vehicle is the same
thing as owning a gun. It is not. What Booker is trying to do is say, well,
the government has the right to license vehicles and the government has the right to
license guns. That is crap and it's not true. The stakes between the two,
having a broken down car or a wrecked car, are not the same as opposed to not
having a gun when you need one or having one that doesn't work or worse yet,
having one, but you're not allowed to carry the thing.
It doesn't. It actually encourages crime because licensing does nothing but keep a
lot of people from ever even taking the licensing route and trying to get licensed
because they don't want to go through all the red tape. And so they figure it's
just easier to be a defenseless victim and waiting. Licensing doesn't do anything to
stop crime any more than licensing cars and licensing people to drive them did
absolutely nothing to augment highway safety in the least. Yeah,
the cars did not become safer once the government started mandating licensing. Not at
all. No, the cars didn't become safer. People didn't become safer. I tell you what,
it's weird. Down here in Florida, something about when the rain starts, it's almost
like people unscrew the top of their head, pull their brain out, put it on the
seat beside them, and keep driving on down the road and probably 10 to 15 miles
over the speed limit. We have some real stupid people on the road down here.
I think some of them were imported, but we'll just leave that right there. Anyway,
but another issue with this licensing guns like cars argument is the idiotic belief
that that has some sort of an impact on crime and that's why I'm bringing this out
here the point is none of this stuff that they're proposing would do a dadgum thing
they know it we know it it's all more of their theater and it's nothing more and
certainly nothing less than just one more step in their,
what should I say, their incremental conquering of America. That's what it is.
Disarming us is the first order of business, because if they don't do that, they
know good and well, we're going to chew them up, and we're going to chew them up
bad. Yeah, I like how these senators sit up there in their lofty offices and expect
police officers and soldiers to go out there and get themselves killed confiscating
our firearms. It doesn't affect them any. But I'll tell you what,
while this may not have much of a chance of passing right now, don't think it
won't have a chance of passing later. Don't think they won't resurrect this or try
to ram it through again. If they ever went back the House and the Senate, They
will try to drive it through, and especially if they have another godly, ungodly,
filthy communist president like Barack Obama or Joe Biden up there. It's going to
get signed immediately into law. And suddenly we've got the entire weight of the U
.S. government coming down on us, telling us you're going to get a license to own
and carry that firearm. You know what else they're probably going to try to do? You
watch. They'll probably try to make a concession and say, okay, we'll give you
concealed carry reciprocity if you give us this. Mark my words on that. It was said
right here today. January 5th is the date of this recording,
2026. Bet me on that. I wouldn't doubt if they came out with this in the next
session. It wouldn't surprise me one bit. So you stay trained up.
You stay in contact with your reps. Get a hold of some good communications equipment
like those GMRS radios I spoke about earlier in the program. Get a hold of those
things. We're going to need them. So make sure you got plenty of beans, bullets,
and band -aids stocked up. Again, get to the range and train as often as you can.
Also train your draw stroke at home. You can train dry fire at home without
spending a dime on ammo. You need to start doing that and doing it yesterday.
All right? And do it safely. And never forget, incoming rounds always have the right
of way. Royce out.
