    Annette Evans - Race Street Range

    Annette Evans - Race Street Range

    The missing episode!  This week we interview Annette Evans.  Annette is a corporate lawyer that has opted to become part of the firearms and personal protection industry.  Annette is co-owner of Race Street Range, a USPSA shooter, and author of ‘The Dryfire Primer.’  We talk about Sigs and Glocks, but mostly about doing things to your capacity, more facilities, and why shooters aren’t all that motivated to get instruction in shooting.  We also talk about King Shooters Supply, Grayguns, PHLster, Brilliant Backstraps, Springer Precision, Nuun Hydration, and other stuff.

You guys are so polite! good questions, and I like the idea of getting to know the shooter, not his/her game.
