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? Julie’s new book Patron Only Segment: Goal Setting - Julie’s Bianchi Cup Goals for 2018 and how to set realistic goals in the shooting sports and in life.
