What can we reasonably expect from the New Year given the facts and reality of our situation in the United States? Can we force ourselves to have a “good year” with happy thoughts and positive vibes?  During our Brownells Bullet Points, we consider the state of the ammo industry and the new “Buy Now” stock price for ammunition. We also will discuss a new shotgun that the professor picked up. Are you prepared to defend yourself? We have one more example of how the state has no interest in protecting you during our weekly SOTG Homeroom from CrossBreed Holsters.  Thanks for being a part of SOTG! We hope you find value in the message we share. If you’ve got any questions, here are some options to contact us: Send an Email Send a Text Call Us Enjoy the show!
