DEAR WLS Question from Peter J from WA Dear WLS: as far as carry guns go, what is important? Optics, comp/ port, trigger, capacity, comfortability, conceal availability, type of holster, or anything else you can think of? Or it’s just the plain Jane G 19 stock type good to go? Question from Duke of Crude from TX Duke of Crude: What’s up with Taylor and co? I thought they made high end lever actions, but I have been getting a ton of adds for what looks like a high point revolver (model 963) that’s “Taylor and co”. Did their brand get high jacked from Turkish importers or are these things for real? Thanks! Notes: what happened to the new years dead pool episode? Did I miss it or were you waiting on Aaron to get back? Question from Micah Wells from Michigan Question! Why hasn’t anyone come up with a quick release pistol dot or base/mount? Something like we use on rifles? You know, in case a problem arises that requires the whole thing to get out of the way in order to use BUIS. (AKA, crushed glass, debris, external fogging, etc.) I know all of my serious stuff utilizes a QR mount. Thanks, Micah Wells Question from Dusky from Florida Hi. Question. Can/Should you shoot lead round nose 22lr through a suppressor? (Have a modular can that can easily be disassembled and cleaned) Is this an issue, if so is it about the lead exposure, sound performance, or just a safety factor? Thank you. Is the Dusky. No Notes. Question from Ken G. from VA Ask WLS: My state has fallen. This year will likely see an onslaught of anti gun legislation passed. Moving is not an option. My firearms collection is pretty diverse. If you were in my shoes with YOUR collection, $3k, and less than six months to make purchases, what are you buying? Ken G. Sic Semper Tyrannis Question from Anonymous Coward from KS Dear WLS Hey Jeremy, how much for the old Harley? Question from Anonymous Coward from Ohio Hello I was wondering if there is a coupon code for pew locker? Thanks for all you guys do for the fun community. And the is show is way better without Aaron. Hope this is a permanent change.
