What exactly is the state of the industry? We are joined by Charles Brown, “Charlie” to his friends, of MKS Supply. Charlie has been in the firearms industry in one form or another his entire life. The Professor and Mr. Brown will discuss the past, present, and future of the gun business.
We have a Duracoat Finished Firearms segment for you. Is there more than one kind of black? During our Brownells Bullet Points we discuss hardware. How many magazines should you have for your rifle and what’s up with EOTech optics?
Additionally, all of us at Student of the Gun are excited to welcome back one of our original partners. Who would that be? Listen louder.
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!

Welcome To The Growing Community Of First Time Gun Buyers!
It’s estimated that in the U.S., over 12 million guns were purchased from January through July of 2020. That includes almost 5 million first-time gun owners! If you are a first time gun buyer we would would like to be one of the first to welcome you and invite you to become active in our community and hobbies.
If you’re like many first time buyers, walking into a gun shop can be overwhelming. You likely know “why” you want to purchase a gun…
– target shooting
-home protection
-concealed carry
-hunting
…you may not know which model is best for you. Unlike some things in life, one size does not fit all when it comes to firearms.
While the choice may seem daunting, armed with the right information, your selection process should be easier.
