John Murphy recently retired after 25 years of service in the Marines and the intelligence community, but he makes no claim to being a combat veteran. He considers himself very fortunate to have trained under some of the most respected firearms instructors in the country, and he's learned much more about shooting and self-defense outside the military than he ever did during his service. As an instructor, John has incorporated the best and most practical methods and techniques into his courses, and he continues to train and refine his skills every year, both as a defensive shooter and as a trainer. John has presented classroom and range instruction at the multiple Rangemaster Conferences, and currently holds a "Master Instructor" rating from Rangemaster, and is a graduate of Massad Ayoob's "Lethal Force Instructor" program. For reference of some select instructors John has training or certifications from reference below. In this show we talk about John's flagship course Street Encounter Skills and Tactics, Ancillary skills that may preclude having to shoot, including Managing Unknown Contacts (MUC, credit Craig Douglas) pre-assault cues, Pepper Spray use and Medical, Recognition Primed Decision Making, use of video review and more...

This does not constitute legal advice, Eric and Aaron on not lawyers nor claim to provide this information for that purpose. This is for discussion sake. If you have legal questions please consult with legal counsel in your jurisdiction. Kyle Rittenhouse was acquitted on all charges! This is a victory for liberty the 2nd Amendment and self defense law. We believe that Kyle being charged at all was an injustice, as even a cursory understanding of the law of self defense and the evidence available in video shows cut and dry self defense. We go over some lessons learned for all of us to consider.

This show Eric and Aaron Davis start a new series of bonus shows where they talk Gear and Mindset. We all love gear, in other words "Hardware," yet we know it's low on the priority list when we look at the hierarchy of surviving violent encounters. That said we still love gear and know our audience loves gear as well. We will primarily talk about gear that supports us on The Path but will reserve the right to simply talk about cool guns and knives as well. Furthermore we will equally talk about ways to support building your mindset and gear that aids in this as well. Ultimately it is mindset that is the most important "software." Defensive use of firearms in the US: Most people would be flabbergasted at how many times a year individuals use firearms to save their lives or the lives of others. Miraculously, the majority of the time the trigger doesn't have to be pulled. In the show the crew discuss an astounding article by John Lott There Are Far more defensive gun uses than murders. Here is why you rarely hear of them. Ben Shapiro Podcast mentioned by Aaron on the show: Bret Weinstein and Heather Heying Slings: The sling is to the rifle as the holster is to the pistol. Some of our favorites as discussed on the show. The Proctor Sling The Vickers -sling Shot timers: Pact Club Shot Timer 3 Competition Electronics Pocket Pro II We really want one of these timers if they every have any in stock…..ugh!

This episode we welcome back Cecil Burch of Immediate Action Combatives for a third time! Cecil holds the record for most appearances and said on the air that he would have to ensure that no one took his lead....hehe! - We do an After Action Review of the Immediate Action Jiu-Jitsu and Pugilism seminar we hosted in Tulsa OK 16-18 July 2021. The course was very transformative for all the students, frankly it had some of the same impactful learning experiences as Shivworks ECQC. Eric and Aaron speak on some hard learned lessons they experienced during the weekend, lessons that audience members may learn from as well. Also a very important discussion was on the value of simulation and force on force training with simple blue guns. We all loose sight of the fact that we do not have to use simunitions or UTM all the time to get value. Blue gun work has 80-90 percent of the value and is way easier and cheeper to implement. Per the discussion on the show please pick up the book Safe Force on Force Firearms Simulations By Ralf Mroz Cecil Burch is a like long martial artist training in a multitude of systems for over 40 years. Some of the systems have been Jeet Kune Do and Filipino Martial Arts under Dan Inosanto and Paul Vunak, he has trained in Thaiboxing, western boxing, Sevate and Pentjak Silat and many more. Currently Cecil's primary focus is Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu in which he has a Black Belt under the legendary Megaton Diaz. Furthermore Cecil is an avid shooter and is a part of the Shivworks Collective which is a scholarship of the finest minds in integrated martial arts, combining combative sports modalities with force on force stress inoculation using sims guns and training blades to pressure test those modalities. https://www.iacombatives.com/just-like-you/ Evolution Security is Eric Davis, Aaron Davis and Brian Schilt; specializing in self-protection education, defensive pistol and carbine, consulting, and weapons based grappling.

This episode we have the preeminent expert of Self Defense Law - Andrew Branca on the show. Arguably the only attorney in the nation that focuses purely on self defense law giving him expertise that all of us should seek. Andrew is also the author of the book, The Law of Self Defense, which will educate you on the principles needed to keep you out of legal trouble. It can not be over emphasized, if you use lethal force you WILL go through some form of legal proceedings, even if it is "cut and dry." As gun owners the majority of us do not focus on being prepared for the legal fight, this lack of education can certainly affect our lives drastically and can result in spending the rest of our lives in prison. Also in this episode the crew discusses Legal Assistance memberships and their efficacy. Lastly, in the accountability section Eric speaks on his recent experience in taking and graduating from the Rangemaster Instructor Development and Certification course.

Paul Sharp of Straight Blast Gym Illinois and Sharp Defense comes on the show to provide some additional much needed perspective on the current anti-police sentiment, the state of Law Enforcement and the current riots. Paul is a veteran Elgin Illinois police officer, a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu and is a preeminent expert on multidisciplinary and integrated martial arts under the Shivworks Collective. Paul hits on some history around previously used police weaponry and tactics in the 30-40s such as full auto BARs, military L-ambushes, and more,, yet the current attitude towards police is that they are too militarized. Paul picks that myth and many more apart and provides some insight into his training philosophy and his incredible work ethic in the gym. Paul shows us that he is a true lover of music and the EvoSec crew closes out the show with their accountability and the drill of the week. https://www.sbgillinois.com/ www.evosec.org EvoSec Drill of the week. From 5 yards, 2 IDPA targets 3 feet apart. String 1- Draw and fire 1 shot in T1 and one shot into T2. Sting-2 Same drill except 2 shots on T1 and T2.. String 3- Repeat but with 3 shots on each T1 and T2. Total up all three times, and add 1 sec added for any points down on the target.

This week we are blessed to have Marshal Chuck Haggard of Agile Training and Consulting on the show. He is a 30 year veteran of both law enforcement and the military, and is a well-known subject matter expert in police use of force. Chuck provides some much needed perspective and expert analysis of the current events to include the tragic killing of George Floyd by a now charged rogue police officer. He hits on the current riots and the history of similar riots in the 60s, along with the movement to defund the police and the possible impact if this were to occur. On a lighter note the interview moves to one of Chuck's other areas of expertise and that is the efficacy and use of oleoresin capsicum spray (OC pepper spray). "I would invite anyone who thinks its easy to arrest someone who doesn't want to be arrested to put handcuffs on someone who doesn't want to go with them, check in at their local Jiu-Jitsu Dojo and try some Jiu-Jitsu. If you've never done it before, you will quickly find that even though you are rolling with another white belt, its not as easy as you might think. And you're in a setting where you both agree not to hurt each other and are training with an agreed on set of rules." Essentially, if you haven't even done that, you have little perspective to critique law enforcement on the use of force and how you would do it better. You simply don't know what you don't know.

On this show we do a book review of Straight Talk on Armed Defense, what the Experts want you to know. by Massad Ayoob. This book is masterful in bringing together the preeminent experts in the firearms and self-defense industry into one book. It is a detailed reference book covering everything from what real criminal assault looks like, how to live the carry life style, how to find effective training and how to be prepared for the legal aspects of both carry and the aftermath of a self-defense encounter. This in our opinion should be in everyone's library. We go into a summary of many of the chapters but rest assured it only scratches the surface of the wealth of content in the book.
