Great piece Jim! I like how you have such a good relationship with the local media to keep applying that positive light on firearms ownership.

Thank you! I do my best. I was a Communications major so I guess I understand what their angle is, and how to help translate that into putting firearms ownership in a good light. All of the reporters we've dealt with (sans one Washington D.C. reporter with his own agenda) have been absolutely terrific to work with. I've had one local reporter tell me that they consider me to be their "go to" guy for gun stories. That is very, very nice of them to think of me and my company in that regard.

Saw it when it aired! Looking good man! Way to represent gun owners well. These types of things help break the imagine that the antis like to paint and make people realize the only difference between gun owners and them is that gun owners choose not to be victims!

I really liked the point at minute 3:10 comparing gun ownership to a owning a fire extinguisher - being prepared.

People don't think "The fire department will protect me, I don't need a fire extinguisher." The fire department can't always get there in time, neither can the police.

That was a great quote. Katherine and Erin did a super job on the segment.
