The AR (ArmaLite Rifle- NOT assault or automatic) platform is incredibly modular, making it easy to customize to fit your needs. NEEDS and WANTS can sometimes cross creating a blurry area of customization that can defy logic. Cool is not always practical. Proper education on the platform coupled with comprehension of what your needs are should always be the focus.
.
Tell me about your AR! Why you chose it, if youβve customized it, or any AR youβve seen in the wild that defies all logic.

When it comes to shotguns, Iβm all about pump actions, theyβre my favorite! Being mag- fed only makes it more enjoyable for me. This is the 590m, 12 gauge from Mossberg. I also have the 590m Shockwave and I run them both quite often. Whatβs your favorite shotgun?!

When I first started to carry I knew enough to know I didnβt know anything. I realized I needed training beyond my CCW class. There are many different types of training from extreme tactical to competitive shooting. For me, I needed to start with how to effectively run the gun I was carrying as it applies to my life; defensive handgun. In addition I think itβs important to incorporate additional training such as first aid, situational awareness, understanding legalities... etc.
.
What type of training do you concentrate on and why?

I am getting so many questions on my recent article in Personal Defense World, Learning to Love the 1911. This article features Nighthawk Custom and two of their guns, one being the Lady Hawk 2.0. Most are asking how it shoots and if it is worth the cost. Here is a video of me shooting this extraordinary gun. Shoots like a dream and very accurate! βOne Gun, One Gunsmithβ... each gun, start to finish, that is the Nighthawk Philosophy. Hand crafted and fitted with craftsmanship beyond measure; these guns are worth every cent. I have spent a great deal of time with the Nighthawk family and can tell you that not only does a higher level of quality craftsmanship go into each gun, so does the heart of Nighthawk. My time at Nighthawk will be shared soon on my upcoming show as the very first episode as well as a full length article coming to Tactical Life. I cannot wait to share more about this experience!

This is one of my favorite shirts, originally because itβs just fun. Now, with the craziness going on, itβs more like a warning lol. Kidding... In all seriousness, your best skillset should be Situational Awareness. Carrying a gun with good training is crucial for self-defense but DO NOT FORGET the importance of SITUATIONAL AWARENESS! .
SOUND OFF BELOW WITH YOUR BEST SITUATIONAL AWARENESS ADVICE!! ππ

Thatβs a wrap for SHOT! It was a great week! Even though it was super busy itβs always a wonderful opportunity to see those I work with face to face. I even got to run into some great IG people! I wish there had been more time and opportunities to meet more. Until next year!! Now... sleep LOL .
