THE AGENCY BRIEF Agency Update THE HOOK (COLD OPEN) “If you’ve ever wondered when the federal government decided your constitutional rights needed a permission slip and a background check, welcome to the Gun Control Act of 1968.” THE INTEL (THE STORY) Why?: The 1960s were a mess of race riots, civil unrest, and high-profile assassinations (JFK, MLK, RFK). The political elite used the national panic to ram through a wishlist of federal gun control they had wanted for decades, convincing the public that the legal supply chain was the enemy, rather than the radicals pulling the triggers. The Play-by-Play: What it did: Backroom Deals: Domestic gun manufacturers essentially sold out the people. They backed the bill because it banned the import of cheap, foreign-made handguns—effectively wiping out their competition. The Media Lie: The press sold the GCA as a “targeted” bill to stop assassins. They completely ignored that it effectively criminalized the interstate market, invented the “prohibited persons” list, and choked off the legal supply chain for everyday citizens. The Reality Check (Hidden Incentives): Rumors: Rumor (Highly Credible): Senator Thomas Dodd explicitly modeled the 1968 GCA after Nazi Germany’s 1938 Weapons Law. Dodd was a prosecutor at the Nuremberg Trials and public records confirm he had the Library of Congress translate the Nazi law. The structural parallels involving dealer licensing, tracking, and “sporting” clauses are nearly identical. Rumor: LBJ’s push for the law was heavily influenced by elite, backroom fears of armed Black Panther patrols in California, rather than just the high-profile assassinations. Gun control is in fact rooted in racism. THE 2A ANGLE (LEGAL & IMPACT) The Threat: The GCA is the mother-ship of modern federal gun control. It created the Federal Firearms License (FFL) system, age restrictions, and the “prohibited persons” list. The ATF’s current “zero tolerance” strategy of revoking licenses...

Double Tap - Ep 457 This episode of Double Tap is brought to you by: Blue Alpha Night Fision (Code: WLSISLIFE Die Free Co. (Code: WLSISLIFE) Flatline Fiber Co (Code: WLS15) Bowers Group (Code: WLS) Text Dear WLS or Reviews +1 743 500 2171 Show Titles GunCon.net Tickets on sale now. Use code AGENCY171 DEAR WLS Question from Boone I’m wanting to make a SBR 350 legend ar but I’m wondering what barrel lengths to consider. I’m not wanting to get too short for hunting up to 100 yards. What length would you recommend? And I’m also considering building a 6mm ARC at a later date and what length would be reasonable for it? Question from Adam B I have acquired some cool WWII flags and one has a bring back letter. It is in the old blue duplicator paper and was wrapped with a cover sheet. When i opened up what I thought was just a cover sheet, it was actually a very faint letter for the second flag. Do you know of any place that can restore or recover the document to give the second flag its story. NO Jeremy, I won’t sell them to you. Question from Fisher Cat Hey knucklefucks, what are your opinions of the lever action rifle from Henry that’s in 556/223? I’ve been debating on buying one over an ar15 because who doesn’t love a lever action? Love the show Question from Dennis H Will Gideon optics be making the mediator 2 in with a green reticle? Also wondering if this would be a sufficient optic for a semi automatic shotgun? Question from Jon F Hey fellas! Long time listener, first time caller. I have a Marlin 1895 trapper in 45-70, this is my primary hunting rifle and I want to get a can for it. I’d like to keep it as light a possible and still be somewhat hearing safe. Also this will most likely stay on this gun, so direct mount (11/16-24). What do you think is my best option? I was leaning towards the dreadnought but I’m not stuck on it. Question from Andrew L I’m in process of printing and building an AR22 based on the CMMG conversion system. I’m also adding an FTN5 can and most likely, a 3-position safety. My question is, have any of you had experience with this kind of setup and what kind of reliability did it have? I’m just looking for something fun to build and shoot but also the secret stash of SHTF supply of files and parts. I’m curious to what you guys have printed or used, what kind of material, print settings etc that had worked best for you. I know there’s been some talk about a dedicated show or segment for 3d printed stuff and I’d be fully onboard for that! I’d even contribute if I can or you need. Thanks for the great work! I listen while at work or my 1-hour commute to or from it. Notes: FUCK THE LIBTARDS… GUN INDUSTRY NEWS Second Amendment Foundation and Firearms Policy Coalition File Lawsuit Over National Park Service Federal Facilities Firearms Ban The Second Amendment Foundation (SAF), Firearms Policy Coalition (FPC), and a private citizen have filed a lawsuit challenging the National Park Service’s ban on carrying firearms in federal facilities such as visitor centers, ranger stations, and maintenance buildings. The suit argues that this prohibition violates Second Amendment rights by forcing law-abiding visitors to disarm to comply with park registration rules, citing Supreme Court precedents like Bruen. SAF leaders describe the ‘sensitive places’ restrictions as attempts to circumvent public carry protections. Springfield Armory Echelon 4.5″ Adopted by St. Louis County Police Department The St. Louis County Police Department has selected the Springfield Armory Echelon 4.5F 9mm striker-fired pistol as its new duty sidearm, citing positive feedback on performance, ergonomics, and slide features from transition training. The Echelon features a patent-pending Central Operating Group with a self-contained stainless steel chassis for quick grip module swaps, including three backstraps, and a Variable Interface System supporting over 30 optics footprints via self-locking pins.

Join us on this episode of AK-47 Radio as we dive back into our series on the History of the Gun. Tonight we take a look at the PPD-34/40, the Soviet Union's first foray into submachine guns, and the fatal mistakes made leading into the Winter War with the Finns, where the Soviets finally learn the value of personal automatic weapons.

Jon Patton from The Gun Collective / TGC News / Gun Con joins the Live Fire Media crew for a no-holds-barred discussion on the hottest drama shaking the firearms industry right now. We dive deep into: • The explosive B&T AG vs. B&T USA fallout — licensing termination, lawsuits, backorders, and what it means for customers and dealers • Beretta’s aggressive push into Ruger — proxy fight, board nominations, tender offers, and the battle for control of America’s largest gunmaker • Jon takes shots at Colt while Hunter goes full defensive mode as the crew brings multiple issues to light Once the dust settles, we shift gears to something positive: **Gun Con 2026** in Niles, Ohio (June 19-20). Jon breaks down why this event stands out as one of the coolest and most fun in the industry for both manufacturers and media. Real conversations with brands, the public, giveaways, and zero corporate stiffness — this is where actual connections happen. If you’re tired of the same old industry talking points and want straight talk on what’s really going on behind the scenes, this episode is for you.

Use code AGENCY171 DEAR WLS Question from Kyle R I have a Henry Supreme in 300 blk out used as a range toy. With the SBR tax stamps going to $0, I am considering having the barrel cut and threaded to 11”. This is basically the end of the stock forearm. I’m running it suppressed with subs only, as God and Jeremy demand. Is getting 5” cut off worth the effort for the performance/enjoyment return? Question from Andrew H Hey dudes, long time listener here dating back to 2016 and second time questioner. I’m in the market for a semi auto .22lr handgun so I’m sure Shawn already hates this question. It’s purpose would be for frequent cheap target practice, and maybe occasional EDC as I prefer to carry 9mm. I am kind of between the Walther P22Q (tactical?) or the Taurus TX22, however welcome the groups recommendations on other firearms as well. Historically I’ve disliked every Taurus I’ve held or shot. Reviews are mixed on the P22 but I like the look and feel better. Love the show and all you guys do. Thanks until next time. #ssb Question from Nick F this year I turn 44, naturally I’d like to get myself a 44 magnum. y’all got any suggestions to solve my dirty harry dilemma? Question from Kyle R I was excited last year for Ohio to be hosting Guncon, but disappointed I couldn’t make it. Sounds like I missed a bullet though. With Patton trying again, this time outside of “BEAUTIFUL” Youngstown, I’ll get a second chance. Are all of the cast planning on going? Could this be the trip that finally gets Shawn to quit being a Commie and move to a respectable state? Question from Ben Dover Can you suggest a decently light hunting rifle chambered in 6.5 Creedmoor? I have a Bergara B-14 HMR and I’d prefer something that weighs a bit less. Not looking to get into a Bergara after my first experience GUN INDUSTRY NEWS TACWRK Announces Tasmanian Tiger TT Mega Mil OPS Pack 600 TACWRK, in collaboration with Ripperkon, has released the largest Tasmanian Tiger backpack ever built, the TT Mega Mil OPS Pack 600, boasting a 900-liter capacity in Olive.
