THE SHOOTING BENCH!
"THE SHOOTING BENCH" is brought to you by Southwest Shooting Authority for the discussion of all topics related to shooting, hunting, reloading, personal defense, disaster preparedness, Constitutional issues and related legislation and much more.
The podcast by the same name is available at www.theshootingbench.net or you can subscribe free on iTunes.
Our new online store is up at: www.theshootingbench.org It is very disorganized right now but functional. We will eventually get our classes and many more items on there as we can.
