Listener Feedback:
Robert: Jake
Great to hear about ar-15 podcast just bought my first this year and love it. Also just finished gun store and range show and would like to recommend Dabbs gun and pawn on horn lake,ms great people and great place to buy guns as far as gun ranges I belong to Desoto Rifle & Pistol club in como,ms outdoor range that is great.Thanks for great podcast!
Kiki: Dude like the new show, but you guys failed in the most popular ar rounds side….at least in my neck of the woods besides 223/556….308 nato, 9mm and 22 lr rule…..not to many people go to wild cat rounds like grendal, 6.8spc or 300 aac around here…..alot of 308s and 9mm carbines…..anyway keep it up…
Josh Wood – Dallas, TX: Jake, You read my email on air about Targetmaster in Garland. Is there anything that can be done to increase my chances of winning? I got a wonderful deal on a mostly milspec AR for $500 from a friend that was desperate for some cash. Did a little work on a Glock I sold him for the price. Anyhow, I love the rifle, but while the charging handle looks black and matches in low lighting, it is actually purple! I don’t know if he cannibalized this from his wife’s rifle or what, but man would I love that sweet charging handle. Anyhow, mostly joking. I did give you a five star review on iTunes and didn’t even have an account with them, set it up just for you
. Love all that you do and will review your AR 15 podcast soon. Also five stars. Wonderful stuff. Thanks for everything including reading my email. Good luck with the new podcast. Seems to be going well so far.
Bob: About time! A excellent first episode. How often ?
Max: Hey Jake, I just wanted to say great show! I found your podcast last week and have found it to be very informative. I am experienced with the m4/ar15 platform from serving in the Marine Corps. Currently I am serving with 3rd Force Reconnaissance Co. 4th Marine Division. I have shared your podcast with my fellow marines and now we all look forward to your show every week. Due to financial restraints I still do not own a personal AR15, but hope to one day. Thanks for the great show.
Frank: Have either of you used an ATI polymer AR lower?
Also I would really like to see a truly barebones, rock bottom priced, but upgradable AR build
Bryan Bolivar: A point from your last AR-15 show. The sproing is your rifles way of talking to you. A sproing means all is well, “shoot me again”. When you don’t hear a sproing you know something is up. You either need to change to a fresh mag or complete an immediate action drill to get that rifle working again. Embrace the sproing, don’t try to silence it. This is advice I got from a retired Canadian Forces Warrant Officer. I’ve proven it to be true to myself in competition over the last couple of years.
