A big thanks to Dianna, Heather and Becky for representing us in DC and for being on The 3-Gun Show!
Dianna, Heather and Becky, Thank you all for the insight into how you are bridging the gap between shooters, non-shooters and their representatives. I feel like most shooters default setting is to get combative and angry at people who are uneducated rather than listen and inform. Thank you Dave for putting on a great show, I just started listening a couple weeks ago and now your show is a part of my daily routine when traveling to and from the range or work!
Best,

Daniel, thanks for the compliment and for listening to the show. I really enjoy the mellow and rational method that these ladies use when educating those that are ignorant to the function, use and importance of firearms.
Hi David — I just listened to your show with Di, Becky & Heather — very informative as to the process in Washington as to how to visit with your congressman regarding firearm topics. I appreciate your taking the time to interview these ladies and how important this topic really is as to the 2nd amendment rights.
Thank you — Joan – Hays, KS
Glad you enjoyed our serious but fun chat on this very important topic. 🙂
