TFB Behind the Gun #133: Soft Goods FAQ w/ Kurt from Blue Alpha Belts

Most of you here are probably very familiar with Blue Alpha Belts and what they do. For those of you who don’t, Blue Alpha specializes in belts - specifically EDC, and now more recently, battle belts. Kurt and Jesse started Blue Alpha Belts back in 2016 and from the get-go were great industry partners together with TFBTV. Just like any other good business, Blue Alpha arose from a customer wanting something badly enough that they just went ahead and made it themselves. Today we’ll get to hear Kurt tell their origin story, as well as share some insight into another corner of the gun industry that we don’t often get to talk about - soft goods. Please welcome the founder of Blue Alpha Belts Kurt to the show.

TFB Behind the Gun #132: AMMJ Penumbra w/ Marvin, Hop & Brass Facts

In today’s episode of TFB’s Behind the Gun Podcast, we welcome Marvin from AMMJ to discuss his new commercial-grade Penumbra Laser Aiming Module (LAM) with night vision junkies Hop and BrassFacts. Unlike most of the current civilian LAMs restricted by FDA regulations, the Penumbra stands out with its slaved aiming lasers for precise calibration, an independently adjustable illuminator with a throw lever, and a machined aluminum housing with industry-standard mounting surfaces. It features a micro red dot, a versatile 3-position Aimpoint-compatible mount, and independent controls for laser and illuminator outputs. Marvin will also share the inspiration behind the Penumbra, the challenges in bringing it to market, and his future plans for this new take in the very narrow world of night vision aiming devices.

TFB Behind the Gun #130: TFB's Top Guns II - Cop vs Helicopter Pilot

We really hope you all enjoyed last week’s episode where we asked TFB writers Paul B and Adam S what their top 3 guns would be for a minimalist setup if you couldn’t have any other guns. However, even with an unlimited budget, and choice of any firearms in the world, both Adam, Paul, and virtually everyone else we’ve asked would have picked the same three guns. So this week I’ve decided to change the game up a bit and give our writers a bit more freedom to express themselves in their firearm choices. This week, and down the road we’ll be doing 5 guns with the aim of getting a bit more variety of firearms in the mix. We hope you’ll join the discussion this week with TFB writers Doug E and Patrik O as they go through their very interesting “minimalist” 5-gun setup.

TFB Behind The Gun Podcast #129: TFB's Minimalist 3 Gun Setup

Have you ever wondered what you’d do if you could only ever own three guns? Let’s suppose you’ve got an unlimited budget, but for some reason, you can only get 3 more guns and you’ll never be able to get new ones again - what would you pick in this scenario? While this is unlikely to ever happen in real life, this simple question often exposes what most of us find important in our daily lives when it comes to guns. For this first round of answers from our TFB writers, I’ve brought on Adam S and Paul B to give their own bids into this fun little discussion. Today I hope you’ll also join us in the discussion (before or after listening to the podcast!) to share with us your three guns and why you picked them! We’ll be revisiting this topic over the next couple of episodes and maybe even beyond that, we’d love for you to join the discussion with us as it adapts with new guests.

TFB Behind The Gun Podcast #128: Backpack Gun Talk with Kirk from Aero

Today we’ve brought back Kirk from Aero Precision to talk a bit about “backpack guns.” What that term means exactly is largely up to the user but we thought we’d try to tackle the discussion from a more modern perspective. What you bring into the field with you is often going to be dictated by what you’re out there for in the first place. My assumption growing up and from reading various survival novels and fiction was that the trusty 22LR was always going to be the gun for the job but today Kirk and I are going to tackle the subject from a more learned, and modern perspective. How does the 22LR backpack gun concept hold up today, and what are some reasons why you might still want to have one in your collection?

TFB Behind The Gun Podcast #124: What is SOWW? With Roy Hill

Today’s podcast we’re bringing on a new friend of mine Roy Hill, to talk about a very honorable organization called SOWW. The Special Operations Wounded Warriors is a charity that specifically focuses on members of the armed services who are active with or have served with the special operations community. Roy Hill has had a lot of experience within the firearms world and while he now sits on the board of SOWW, at one point in time he worked for Brownells, which is where I happened to meet him. After hearing about what he does with SOWW today, I thought it was important we had him on to talk about what exactly SOWW does with the charitable donations that it receives.

TFB Behind The Gun Podcast #122: Calvin's Hot Takes from Lynx 2024

Today’s guest is one of my good friends and a longtime friend of TFBTV from way back in the Alex C days of the channel. We’re of course talking about Calvin Truong aka Phúc Long or Firepower United on his YouTube channel. While most of what Calvin does is mostly or entirely satirical, Cavin is in reality a very impressive and accomplished shooter not just here in the US but internationally as well. Calvin and I have participated together in Finnish Brutality in the past and today he’s here to talk about his experiences at Lynx Brutality 2024 in Slovenia. While the tales that Calvin has for us today are hilarious, they’re also cautionary tales for anyone who is interested in attending these types of events. So have a seat, buckle up, and knock back a drink or two as Calvin and I catch up over Lynx Brutality 2024.

TFB Behind The Gun Podcast #121: Ryan from Silencer Central

Silencers have been the talk of the NFA town for the last couple of months. This is largely due to the massive wait times we saw before seemingly disappearing overnight leaving most of us with much more manageable e-form 4 processing times of about a week or less. This has sent ripples through the suppressor and firearm world leading to a bum-rush on all sorts of muzzle devices and suppressor manufacturers desperately trying to keep up with the increased demand that this rare NFA win has given the gun community. We’ve brought on Silencer Central CEO Brandon Maddox in the past to talk shop with Pete, but this time we’re bringing on Ryan H with Sielcner Central to talk about what he’s seen behind the scenes when it comes to selling suppressors in this new era. Today we’ll talk about all things silencers, how easy it is now to complete the process, and also talk a bit about Silencer Central’s own line of suppressors in the Banish series.

Mike as you guys know used to present quite often on TFBTV and typically covers more historical firearms pieces on his own channel. As such, just like at last year’s Finnish Brutality 2023, Mike is bringing the heat in the form of a fresh new historical “LARP” – this time as an Iraqi National Policeman.

The TFBTV has grown and shrunk over the years but in the last couple of years, we’ve really refined our methods and approaches to each and every show we tackle. Today on the podcast we’ll be speaking with one of the unsung heroes of the TFBTV crew, Adam M.

Coming from a background in the television industry, Adam has been instrumental in helping the crew get high-quality editing done on the road so that you guys get the latest up-to-date news from the show floor. Today we’ll get to learn a bit more about one of the auxiliary members of the crew, what kinds of guns he’s into, and what he’s looking forward to most from his upcoming trip to Thunder Ranch.
