Just a couple of mates sitting down and talking rubbish. There’s a bit of news, a bit of fun discussion, some trash. This is probably what #WTTGS was started for before we made useful content and couldn’t turn back. ——— T is hosting a red dot course at Magnum United on the 12th of September.

This week we discuss the concept of outrunning your headlights and the misconceptions of shooting at speed. The ability to perform actions at a greater pace than the average shooter is being actively discouraged in many circles at the moment, we discuss why there’s value in speed and that having the ability to shoot at speed does not decrease your ability to shoot more slowly when needed.

We sit down with Billy Rosslee from Magnum United Shooting Range to discuss their 18 range rules and the many many ways in which people fail to comply with them. A highly entertaining show on a serious topic. We should make a regular “Billy on the Range, tales from the sharp end of a boom stick” installment. Apologies for Corn’s poor audio quality, something’s up with his mic and will be corrected for the next episode. ——— Magnum United Shooting Range https://www.magnumunited.com In honour...

Bit of a random episode to address some topics that have been on our minds. Three topics of discussion this week: Firearm groups getting deleted or flagged on Facebook for silly stuff, including very old posts Proposed Firearms Amendment Bill submissions closed and the potential for upcoming, expensive legal action Nationals and Selection matches for IPSC and whether there is a better way to do things. There is currently a national match in three different disciplines on three consecutive...

Let us know if you’ve ever had interesting observations while shooting or upon reflecting on your shooting. Please submit your objections, a 21 working day extension has been granted from Monday the 5th of July. That adds a bit of time to submit more objections. Make sure to get all your friends and family...

More on the proposed Firearms Bill. Many individuals and organisations have been focussed on the disastrous effect the proposed repeal of sections 13 and 14 would have on individual’s ability to defend themselves from unlawful attacks. This is excellent and we agree that this proposal is problematic and illogical. There are however more changes in this bill than the self defense changes, we take a small bite out of the huge number of changes and attempt to clarify why these will have huge...

Discussing our (T and Corn’s) lack of match prep and some last minute things we did to try and make up for it. Ideally you want to be training months in advance for big matches, but often life throws some curve balls. There’s some discussion around multi-discipline and the training constraints it adds for competitors. ——— Please also listen to the bonus episode on the proposed FCA amendments if you haven’t yet, it’s...

Attempting to answer questions around identifying good instructors Someone asked how to identify a good instructor or coach. Unfortunately it’s a complex topic with vastly different answers depending on what the skillset is that they are teaching. We talk about what we look for as individuals. There will be an upcoming episode on “Good Students?”. _____ Please contact us using the Facebook page or group if you’re a parent with experience in introducing children to firearms and would...

We sit down with Conners and Callum from Magload to discuss shooting in general, gun owner in the UK and licensing. We talk about how Magload came into being and some of the absolutely awesome gear they produce. Paul pops in to tell us about Action Air.

In this one T announces some exciting RockSteady Gear news. We chat about increasing the challenge of a specific drill should you find it too easy, and conversely making it less challenging should you have difficulty in making the standard. Please also listen to the bonus episode on the proposed FCA amendments if you haven’t yet, it’s important. https://www.gunshow.co.za/episode/proposed-amendments-to-the-firearms-control-act...

Proposed amendments to the Firearms Control Act have been published in the Government Gazette, no. 44593, on 21st May 2021. The changes this will bring are far reaching and devastating to the country's firearm owners, dealers, importers, sport shooters, hunters, museums, private and public collectors and anyone that requires or could possibly have need for a firearm for any activity in the future including self-defense. This has implications on the careers that supports gun owners; hunting...
