Plot Synopsis

Co-hosted by Rich Nance and James Tarr, HANDGUNS AND DEFENSIVE WEAPONS is a half-hour series that covers everything from competition to self defense, pocket guns to long distance rifles. Every show features both a main handgun and long gun segment, covering everything from the basics of grip, stance, weapon manipulation, and shooting from field positions to competition tricks and advanced tactical techniques. The latest guns and gear are reviewed on the show and field-tested for the viewers, and in every episode the hosts offer a tip to improve shooting. "Handguns" magazine's own Dave Spaulding, a nationally recognized trainer, is only one of several guests appearing regularly on the show.
