Who is that devilishly handsome chap in the middle?
I don't know but I think he does Travelocity commercials too.

[theblacknight]

I'm a fan. It's nice to have a gun show that isnt put out by Discovery channel. Not much problem for me because I dont have cable but still. There's some hope for NBC sports tho.


edit
W, people still have zunes? its like the dreamcast of mp3 players.

[rsa-otc]

Listen in every week. Keep up the great work.

Thanks for all the comments guys. Great work by the hosts, and the dashing bacon guy in the middle.

Send us some feedback and episode suggestions.

Send us some feedback and episode suggestions.

I'd like to see a reenactment of the famous William Tell shot. Since you may not want to use your own child, perhaps you could just randomly select the shortest host to have the apple on his head, and whichever of the other hosts is most skilled with a 14th century era crossbow could fire the bolt.

:D

At least the shooter could use a kneeling position ;)
ETA: i've heard you guys interviews on other podcasts and have all the Power Factor shows on my ipod, just can't find time to watch them. What I have heard seems really good. Probably need to break down and just listen to the audio.

episode suggestions.


Confessions of a RO:Embarrassing, scary and puzzling things witnessed at matches.

If you could change your gun game/make you own, what would you do?

Episode reviewing all other pistol sports, ie Nat Match/Bulleye, Cowboy Action(sounds like a gay bar), Zoot shooters etc etc.

Oh it's pretty clear who our shortest host is ;)

Thanks for all the suggestions, great ideas. we'll find a way to do them all.

Episode 50 - Gunsmithing with JPL : Checkering
This week, we start a small segment focusing on what most competitive shooters end up learning, gunsmithing. Although some might adopt this career path, most are just happy with know enough to maintain and improve their competition guns. We've asked John from http://www.jplprecision.com to come back and show us how things are done in his shop. In this week's case, all about checkering the front strap of a 1911 frame.

If there's something you want to see John cover, please send us an email at powerfactorshow@gmail.com.

Episode 51 - Competition vs Self Defense
The proverbial comparison. The instigator of many rule arguments and interpretations. Shooting games like USPSA and IDPA were originally created to simulate real-world self defense scenarios but have changed dramatically to take into account safety and consistency. So the question we get most of the time is, does participating in USPSA or IDPA help with Self Defense skills?

Episode 55 - Local Rules
USPSA and IDPA are largely governing bodies for the sport and the rules are laid out to ensure consistency across all participants and clubs. There are times when there are requests by local ranges/clubs to modify the rules or institute local criteria as these are usually safety related. Clubs do this because they don't want to risk losing their operating licenses. This week Steve, Rick and Caleb sit down to talk about this slightly heated topic that has got everybody in the local community up in arms.

Also, by popular request, we're accepting Course Designs and Courses of Fire videos from anyone for us to review/critique/advise. Please send them in to powerfactorshow@gmail.com

I've been enjoying listening to the audio version of this show during my daily commute. One question about the Benefits of Professional Training episode (if this is an appropriate place for questions). There is discussion of basic classes, gun handling classes and other "types" of classes. I'm curious to know how you would classify some of the classes we have announced on the forum. For instance, I get the impression that AFHF is an advance gun handling/weapon manipulation type of class, while the Vickers Shooting Method classes (as done by regional instructors) would be more of a basic class. At the end of the day, I really enjoyed hearing about how classes may be specifically applied to desired skills in competition, etc.

Side note, Steve's mic always seems to be the lowest and seems to have the lowest audio quality, while Rick always sounds the best/loudest. Not sure if this is by design ;) or what.

Rick has a booming voice that's why. His volume overpowers the others. I'll try to normalize the audio in the future.

Episode 92 - Unload and Show Clear
If you've been shooting IDPA or USPSA for a while now, you must be used to this command. It's typically given at the end of your run in a stage to ensure that the gun is unloaded and cleared. Do you also realize that this is where you'll find the most dynamic and varied performances by the shooter? Everyone has their own way of making the gun clear. Rick and Larry discuss this and demonstrate some of the more common ones we've seen on the range.

Episode 103 - Interview with Phil Strader, President USPSA
Every year, the USPSA office in Burlington, WA hosts a Christmas party where they invite local USPSA members to visit their offices and celebrate the holidays, with lots of food, beer and wine. If you remember, Rick and Steve were at the party last year to interview Dave Thomas (Episode 53), the now outgoing executive director of USPSA.

This year, we're lucky enough that Phil Strader, the new President who took over the reins from Michael Voigt early this year, flew in to attend the party. Naturally, we jumped at the chance to get him on the show.

Episode 243 - National Sporting Clays Association (NSCA) Classification System
Steve dives into the details of the National Sporting Clays Association (NSCA) Classification System. It is similar to USPSA's classification system but is a slightly more accurate measure of an individual's performance because it does not have specific classifier stages. It takes match results to form the basis of this classification system.

You can find out more about NSCA here : http://www.nssa-nsca.org

Most of us has experienced this, we've paid good money to go shoot a big match, be it IDPA or a USPSA Level 2+ match and although had lots of fun, didn't place well in the match. We look forward to the prize table. In IDPA, the prizes are given randomly whereas in USPSA, the prizes are given depending on your final placement. We've all gotten lots of stuff, from bags, to muzzle brakes to certificate for bullets. Rick got to walk the prize table at the recent Washington State IDPA Championships and got a few things he'd like to share with us. A BCM Gunfighter charging handle, UnderTech Undercover holster shirt and a Calbico Channel Cleaning tool.
