We've received a lot of questions on how the Walther CCP is doing post our original review. The answer is: great! Karl has switched to it being his primary carry piece. This video just a brief update on the CCP with a quick stage from a Steel Challenge match. ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XRNQz9d5OP8
One would expect a strict rationing program like the British instituted to create a massive black market - as indeed happened in France and Germany at the same time. Remarkably, this did not happen. There were of course violations of the rationing and people who either cheated or exploited the system, but no organized substantial black market ever developed. This can be seen as a credit to the British population's sincere willingness to sacrifice for the war effort, but it is also deeply rooted in the several key decisions and successes by Lord Woolton and his Ministry.
The rationing was enforced across class lines (even the King and Queen legitimately participated), and being seen as truly egalitarian reinforced public willingness to obey the rules. In addition, the Ministry of Food was able to successfully ensure that the rations promised were always available. One did not have to rush to get a share of a shipment of bacon or eggs or sugar - there was always enough to meet the needs of the ration, and the significance of this cannot be underestimated.

The next Lapre/Neal class is a carbine class on 11/18-19, 2017. If you are interested, please contact info@inrange.tv and we'll get you connected.
Part 1: Live fire drills, shooting on the clock and weapon handling.
Kelly Neal is a very accomplished competitive shooter amongst many diverse shooting competitions and Chris Lapre is a veteran SWAT LEO that has been through more than his share of real-world lessons and they're working together to provide top tier training.
These Neal/Lapre classes are truly unique in that they approach the topic from both the competitive and tactical sides simultaneously. This is directly inline with InRangeTV's opinion on the topic so we visited with them for 1 day of this 2 day class to bring you some information and encouragement to do the same.
At this time, Neal & Lapre only teach in central Arizona and they have an intermittent schedule but we will keep our viewers informed as to when they plan to have more courses to take and, if you're sufficiently local (or willing to travel), you should do so.
We can not recommend anything taught by these two men highly enough.

Karl and Ian were invited up to 2g-ACM Phoenix by Paul, the match director, and provided two mystery guns to compete against each other with - neither of them knowing what the heck they were going to be provided.
Let's see how that worked out!

A number of products born during WW2 still exist from both the Allied and Axis side of the conflict, one of them being Fanta soda.
Trade restrictions during WW2 isolated the German division of Coca-Cola forcing them to develop their own product or go out of business.
Necessity being the mother of invention, the German Coca-Cola engineers developed a replacement soda drink from mostly "waste products" that were readily available within Germany. As a result, Fanta was born.
This video is the history of Fanta soda, its origins, its 2015 advertising misstep as well as a taste test of the original "klassik" formula.
Special thanks are appropriate to our friend Lars Brüggemann of El-Be-Tac who took the time and effort to ship Fanta Klassik to us!
Please check out their website, they have some very interesting products - hopefully some of which will get to the USA someday:

We've been beating the drum about demonetization and advertising/sponsors being used as a weapon against content creators.
Zorka.Mobi decided to prove one of those points and that is discussed in this video.

We take a look at a 2 shot derringer that is disguised as a cellphone.
It's done quite well..yet it is still ultimately a 2 shot derringer.

This month's Q&A is specifically Old West themed from a very special location. We hope you enjoy it!
0:40
Greg, James, Martin & Deviant:
What was the status of ammunition in the Old West?
How expensive were they?
How available were they?
To what extent were there cartridges compared to loose components?
07:30
Jack
When we watch movies, everyone is carrying a Colt SAA. What other guns were commonly seen?
15:00
Colin
The guns of the old west are iconic, but how do you think the usage of these guns would be different in other locales? How would they have held up in different climates?
20:27
Cael
Do either of you have a favorite Old West history book about gunfights?
21:35
Steven
Why do you think break action revolvers never took off?
26:11
John
The first successful large calibre repeaters were rimfires, but this seems to have died off after 1873 with the .44-40 and .45 Colt cartridges. Why are rimfires less suitable in large calibre configurations? Is it fair to say that rimfire is really only suitable in small calibre format i.e. .22 Long Rifle?

Westerns were still the most common shows on TV when I was growing up, so here's a silly question: Hollywood always showed us bandits and renegades with a pair of crossed bandoliers, but they were virtually never seen on the "good guys". How common was the use of the bandolier (mostly singly, I would imagine) by the military in
the western US after the civil war? Civilian use?
Simon
The image of a cowboy or gunfighter with a fancy leather rig for
his pistol is iconic and common to virtually every television or
movie western ever made. However, I've read that several notable
western figures actually used completely different carry methods
than what is usually portrayed as normal [Wyatt Earp carrying his
pistol in a special felt-lined pocket in his overcoat comes to
mind]. Just how common (if at all) were pistol holsters and
cartridge lined belts on the frontier?

Purchase and Trade of Firearms - I am given to understand that laws surrounding the restriction of ownership and purchase of firearms were few far between back then (although some towns did of course restrict carry, etc) but I'd love to know if there are any examples of
outright bans on purchase and at what levels. I sadly expect that
most such laws would not be equally-enforced or written in a
democratic way. My guess is that some regions would have disallowed purchase by Native Americans, Mexicans, or the Chinese, etc. But I'd love to know of any specific examples of which you are aware. Was "illegal trade" in firearms a big business back then?

While this is not a consumer product, we we able to handle and wear a very forward leaning augmented reality advanced war fighter augmented reality HUD and system at SHOTShow2020.
This system uses an encrypted wireless in theater network to provide location, status, waypoint and other mission data to every soldier in the mission in real time, non-invasively and essentially in real time.
