We are back in front of the mic after our weekend trip to Knob Creek so naturally, today's episode started out being about our experience at the Machine Gun Shoot along with an issue we had with Facebook this past week, but somehow we got onto auto-tune cats and Matt Best. This truly is the show about nothing but it does give you a behind the scenes peek into how we act and the stupid shit we talk about. Enjoy! Show-notes can be found at Wastedammo.com/78...

The Constitution's Framers foresaw that even with the checks and balances in place, there would be a day when the Federal Government would exceed and abuse it's enumerated powers, placing our freedom and liberty at risk so they gave the people the power to reign in the Federal Government by giving the States the ability to propose and ratify amendments without the approval of Congress or the President. This power is clearly stated in article V and it might be our only way to save this great nati...

By now I'm sure everyone has heard the story of pro-gun Floridian, Jamie Gilt getting shot by her 4 year old son while driving down the highway. This story really hit home for me because like Jamie, I am very pro-gun, I have a son that is 4 and I tend to carry off body so, in a alternate universe I could see this being me. So we wanted to dive into this story along with an article written by Melody Lauer titled, " When Baby Reaches For Your Gun, " and we have an open discussion on guns, holsters...

I think every gun nut has been in a debate with a anti-gunner about the true intention of the Second Amendment at least once but more than likely, many times. While arguing the purpose of the Second Amendment, many anti-gunners will eventually say that if your argument is true, then that means we should all have the right to be armed with nukes. This is a informal fallacy where a debater exaggerates an opponent's position to such an extent as to replace it with a position that was not originally...

We got an email from long time listener Greg who thought that an episode on our top 5 EDC knives would be an interesting topic. Instead of doing a top 5 list, we decided just to focus on the knives that we actually own and use every day. While we also mention some knives we do not own, as expected when it comes to Wasted Ammo, we only focus on knives that the everyday Joe can afford. Broke gun enthusiast= broke knife enthusiast.

Today on the Wasted Ammo Podcast we have a discussion about Grant Cunningham's article, Do You Carry Religiously? You May Not Be As Safe As You Believe . In the article Grant states that the gun you strap on your side every day will not keep you safe. While at first glance this claim seems preposterous, but he does makes a compelling case about why and what you can do to be more prepared. Show-notes can be found at Wastedammo.com/65...

Last week on Episode 58 we talked all about home defense and I feel like we left out an important element in that episode - target identification. Every now and then we hear horror stories of homeowners shooting a loved one who they thought was an intruder because they didn't properly identify their target before they pulled the trigger.

Today's episode is all about home defense and strategies. The inspiration of this episode was from Andrew Bobo, a listener who sent us a link to a video of firearm instructor Reid Henrichs from Valor Ridge who said they you should keep all your guns and magazines loaded, chambered and ready to go. Andrew wanted our feedback on how tactical parents who have kids can stage handguns throughout the house but in a safe way - because a handgun is only good to fight your way to your rifle (maybe?). So ...

There is a lot to this story that is simply frightening. Government overreach, the vilification of patriots, media bias, the unreasonable use of "terrorism" charges, and not to mention the fact that two US citizens are being forced to return to jail after already serving the time that was originally handed down to them! This meat and potatoes of this episode really isn't about the militia in Oregon, it's more about the backstory and history of the BLM and the Hammond family that brought about th...
