When Self-Defense Training Gets Too Real...

Gun Talk Media
About this episode
Gun Talk Nation host Ryan Gresham is joined by Jeremy Hedin (@whatthekicks) and Santiago Lopez (@tactical.santi) for a brutally honest conversation about self-defense, mindset, social media in the gun world, and the wild, unpredictable nature of scenario-based training with CCW Safe. From shoot/no-shoot decisions to the psychology of memory under stress, this episode dives deep into what really happens when theory meets reality.

The Gun Talk Nation is brought to you by NRA ARC, EOTECH, Safariland, Range Ready Studios, and Kimber.
