67- Tinfoil Talk: Are Gun Owners So Back?

Modern Canadian Shooter Podcast

09/18/24 • 130 min

It's been a minute since we've done a Tinfoil Talk. But we're back with one. In this episode we're joined by repeat guest Hoser Gun Guy, as well as fellow B.C. shooter, Matt.
The three start the episode starts off by talking about updates in their lives and the relationship between body and mind when it comes to health. Discussions about personal experiences and how emotions can take a physical toll on the body lead the three to the conclusion that a healthy mind is key to a healthy body
From there the subject shifts to the recent political news in Canada, and how the three have noticed a positive shift in the way it feels to be a gun owner lately in Canada. The three discuss their feelings on how they feel an almost a hopeful feeling in what gun ownership can be soon for Canadian LGOs."
The next big topic is Taccom. Hoser spent some time at Taccom 2024 and shares his thoughts and experiences on his time at the convention and some of the rifles that peaked his interest at the event. This leads the three to talk about the updated Canadian AR180s that are coming out and what they hope to see from them. They also discuss their views on past experiences with Canadian manufactured AR 180s and talk about what they hope to see in the future from Canadian gun makers.
The Canadian Firearms Safety Program is next up on the docket for conversations. Pat, Hoser, and Matt talk about what they've noticed when it comes to taking the CFSP and the changes they would like to see. All three agree that the program needs an overhaul on what is taught, with an emphasis on firearm and range culture, as well as a live fire practicum to allow new shooters to shoot for the first time under supervision that can provide helpful and constructive criticism.
This leads to the three talking about how they would like to see gun culture shift into something different than it is now. Hoser talks about his views on how he would like to see it change to a role similar to something resembling a word that gets a bad meaning, a "militia" like role. Hoser goes into depths on this view and brings up stories of countries out of Europe that the success stories that have come from that continent.
It wouldn't be a Tinfoil Talk if someone's internet didn't crap out. And unfortunately Hoser is the victim of this curse. Matt and Pat wind down the episode by getting nostalgic about their Summer Brutality 2024 experience

Modern Canadian Shooter Podcast

05/24/23 • 133 min

Grab a glass of milk. This episode gets a lil bit spicy. We're joined by someone who's been on the show before, Duncan. You might better know him by his IG handle "Door Gunner Photography". Pat and Duncan talk a little bit about the film industry and how movies like "Heat" and "John Wick" created the movement of actors training more for roles that involve guns. The topic of "Heat" then leads them down the rabbit hole of late 1980's to early 1990's AR platform and how we're seeing essentially modern takes on setups that were popular in that era. The two of them nerd out for a bit on overlanding trucks, their experiences so far of driving out in the woods, and their future plans with their vehicles. Then things start to get a bit interesting. Pat and Duncan grab their tinfoil hats and start talking about the media we're seeing recently when it comes to marketing to smaller niche markets and narratives that are being pushed out. This leads them to the topic of Kyle Rittenhouse and how the narrative that was being pushed out by most major media outlets was the complete opposite of what happened.
Grab some tinfoil and lock the doors. If you listen to this episode, you'll most likely end up on a "No-Knock" list.

60- J.Doesnt.Raid: Beginners Guide to Decentralized Communications

Modern Canadian Shooter Podcast

06/26/24 • 112 min

Hello, friend....
Sorry, we still have some "Mr.Robot" vibes in us after talking to J.Doesnt.Raid on this episode of the MCS Podcast. Our guest on this episode is Jorden, or J.Doesnt.Raid on Instagram. He's just your average real estate agent who likes to shoot and get behind the camera from time to time. But one thing that he's been doing lately is learn about how the world we live in is all just radio waves, and how to take advantage of that.
Jordan has been learning and building his knowledge base on things like decentralized communications through things like ATAK or Meshtastic. Two very useful tools that a community of people can use to communicate with in situations where cell service may not be possible. Jordan and Taylor have a very intriguing discussion as well as knowledge dump on how someone new to this world can get started off and what is required.
From there the conversation shifts into things like OSINT and cyber security. Jordan stresses the importance of password management and how easy it is for hackers to gain personal information from websites that you might trust. He also talks about certain ways how ill willed people might "social engineer" an individual and some of the tools at their disposal. On the other side of the conversation, he informs Pat and Taylor of a website that informs people if their personal information has been leaked. After using this tool, Pat's dislike of Oakley grows even more.
This is an episode that will really opens the listeners mind and possibly help them realize how vulnerable they are to malicious actors on the internet.
