This show was recorded as part of our J-frame January series and unfortunately it has just sat in the can for a long time. As I have spooled up the Safety Solutions Academy Podcast again I decided that there was too much of Julie’s time and too many quality segments in this show to just let it sit. and so here it is.

Julie and I start off the show with some silly banter

During the core of the show we jump into these topics.

• Julie talks about the most fun she’s ever had with a revolver.
• Julie’s concealed carry journey and how it relates to J-frames.
• What Julie sees as the greatest misunderstanding that people have about revolvers in general.
• How should someone make the determination as to whether they should carry a revolver or a semi-automatic?
• What Julie sees as the greatest set of advantages that the J-Frame offers? What are the greatest disadvantages of the J-Frame?
• What Julie thinks the perfect J-Frame would look like.
• Revolver grip – What Julie’s grip looks like.
• If there was one tip that people could implement for improving their revolver shooting what would it be?
• Speed loaders, speed strips or loose rounds? What does your revolver reload look like?
• If Julie was in Montana and carrying a wheel gun, what would it be?
