About This Episode:

In this episode of the Concealed Carry Podcast, we discuss gear trends from a recent training class, highlighting popular firearms and the increasing use of optics. I, Riley Bowman, and co-host Jacob Paulsen examine reasons participants chose different equipment than their everyday carry, addressing the dual benefits of familiar versus new gear.

We delve into the rising popularity of weapon-mounted lights and the importance of quality ammunition in preventing malfunctions. Our conversation emphasizes the significance of ongoing training and learning from all experiences to improve as responsible concealed carriers.

As always, any questions or suggestions for future episodes can be submitted to podcast@concealedcarry.com!
