An Oregon teacher put the lives of his students before his own and confronted and disarmed a student who brought a gun to school. This act of bravery flies in the face of the anti-gun crowd who say that teachers cannot be trusted to make life or death decision regarding the safety of children.

During our Brownells Bullet Points discussion, Paul and Jarrad consider magazines. We all know that the magazine will wear out over time and need to be replaced. Is there a time that magazines can be repaired, and how can we do that? 

For this week’s SOTG Homeroom from Crossbreed Holsters, we consider the importance of being able to be dangerous on demand. A young father lost his life because he was not able to be dangerous on demand and one police officer is alive today because he had the training and carried the gear. We have lessons to learn. 

Thanks for being a part of SOTG! We hope you find value in the message we share. If you’ve got any questions, here are some options to contact us:

Enjoy the show! And remember…
You’re a Beginner Once, a Student For Life!

A copy of our newest report is available here. Copies of our annual reports from 2014 through 2018 are available here.

Summary
The number of concealed handgun permits has increased for the third year in a row. The figure now stands at over 18.66 million– a 304% increase since 2007. It’s also an 8% increase over the number of permits we counted a year ago in 2018. Unlike gun ownership surveys that may be affected by people’s unwillingness to answer personal questions, concealed handgun permit data is the only really “hard data” that we have. Sixteen states are missing from the data because people there don’t even need a permit to carry.
