A man was shot and killed with his own gun while open carrying… and now everyone’s blaming the victim.This is the nightmare scenario: you're carrying legally, doing everything right—and a lunatic rips your gun off you and pulls the trigger. Now the media wants to use this rare tragedy to attack open carry laws?In this video, I break down the Las Vegas AutoZone shooting, why this isn't a case against open carry, and how the real problem is bad awareness, not legal carry.We talk about: 🔒 The importance of retention holsters 🥊 Why you need to train for weapon retention 🧠 Why open carry doesn’t make you a threat—until you’re not paying attention ⚖️ And why rights don’t require permission slipsThis isn’t Call of Duty. If you’re gonna carry, you better carry smart.🎯 Holsters matter. Concealment matters. Awareness matters. 📢 Watch, share, and stop carrying like it’s 1995.🛡️ Want to protect yourself legally if you ever have to defend your home?

Smith hosts the Four Boxes Diner 2A channel, which was named the Top Voice of the 2nd Amendment at the 2025 Gundies Awards. Mark Smith is a constitutional attorney, a member of the United States Supreme Court Bar, a professor, a frequent Fox News guest, and a New York Times bestselling author. Mark's eight books include Disarmed: What The Ukraine War Teaches Americans about the Right to Bear Arms, Israel Disarmed: What the October 7 Attack Teaches Americans about the Right to Bear Arms, The Official Handbook of the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy, First They Came for the Gun Owners, and Duped: How the Anti-gun Lobby Exploits the Parkland School Shooting, and How Gun Owners Can Fight Back. Mark’s scholarship has been used by lawyers before the U.S. and his work has been quoted by a federal judge (Roger Benitez) in declaring California’s so-called “assault weapon” ban to be unconstitutional under the Second Amendment. To defend your liberty, you need to understand the “four boxes” of American liberty: the soap box, the ballot box, the jury box, and the ammunition box. We give you the information you need, and we hope to serve as your source for Bill of Rights news and analysis.

Riding Shotgun With Charlie #230 Denise Arcieri Armed PrincessI connected with Denise Arcieri through Yehuda Remer, The Pew Pew Jew (RSWC #012) a few years ago. We talked about doing a show but when I reached out recently, she said she had some exciting news and this was a perfect time! She works at Pioneer Arms LLC in Whitinsville, MA. They make their own fixed magazine ARs, which are Mass legal. They did a special run of them with her Armed Princess logo! And we spent some time and got a few photos of those in the show.Denise grew up in a pro gun family and used to shoot with her father. Then her kids started shooting with her father. He encouraged her to come to a women's event and give it a try again. She found out that she was good at it and she enjoyed it. The instructor saw that she was competent and familiar and asked her to help run the line. She saw that some women were more responsive to her than to the male instructors. One of the women there was a DV survivor. She really attached herself to Denise that evening.That’s when Denise decided that she was going to get more involved. She’s also a DV survivor. When she was younger, she was in an abusive relationship. After incidents, she would call the police and they really didn’t do anything back then other than say things like "“let him cool off” or “he’ll be fine tomorrow” or “he’s not here now and there’s nothing we can do”. Even after she was fully out of this relationship, her ex and his family members would pop up in her life. Maybe run into her at the store. Or see her around town. There were late night phone calls from her ex, too.After becoming an instructor, she started working with more women and has been a great resource at Pioneer Arms. Due to her day job, she was apprehensive about posting pictures of her shooting. But once she started instructing and posting about upcoming courses, the ex’s family stopped running into her. She stopped getting calls. She was able to get her life back together and move on. This has also been inspiring to other women that she was teaching.Building an online presence wasn’t really something she was looking to do, but it has worked in her favor. Denise has been connecting with many other 2A influencers on “the ‘Gram” and building her audience. She connected with the folks at Greyman Solutions. She is one of their brand ambassadors.They gave her the title “Armed Princess” and she graciously accepted it and ran with it.I did get to Pioneer Arms to get some pictures of her logoed AR lowers. You’ll see those in the video. For Mass residents, they do have fixed magazines, both as short 10 round mags and long 10 round mags. You can also get a MEAN Arms speedloader for this or any AR style rifle. If you’re in “free America”, you can also order a lower and they can ship it to your local FFL.The hard part about life is those learning lessons and years. Fortunately, Denise has taken what were some bad years and turned them into something that’s not just good for her and her life, but good for other women, too. With the perspective of being the Armed Princess, she can help other women learn to shoot, become familiar with firearms, and maybe give them the skills and confidence that they need to get out of their situation. That can lead to these women helping others. And so on. And so on.Favorite quotes: “Why did I stop doing this? I love this.” “When you’re coming out of one of those situations, sometimes don’t believe your own life is worth protecting.” “The idea of a gun to protect myself didn’t enter my mind, even though it had been in my life.” “Given that we live in an area where you drive three hours and go through three states, that they would recognize each other’s licenses.” “...told me she had been to three gun shops previously and walked out of every one because she didn’t feel comfortable.”Armed.Princess Instagram https://www.instagram.com/armed.princess/Armed Princess Facebook https://www.facebook.com/p/Armedprincess-100064335295006/Pioneer Arms LLC https://pioneerarmsllc.com/Pioneer Arms LLC Facebook https://www.facebook.com/pioneerarmsllc/Pioneer Arms LLC Instagram https://www.instagram.com/pioneerarmsllc/Greyman Solutions https://greymansolutions.net/ Use Princess15 for free shippingSecond Amendment Foundation https://secure.anedot.com/saf/donate?sc=RidingShotgunCitizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms https://www.ccrkba.org/Please support the Riding Shotgun With Charlie sponsors and supporters.Self Defense Radio Network http://sdrn.us/Buy a Powertac Flashlight, use RSWC as the discount code and save 15% www.powertac.com/RSWCSABRE Red Pepper Spray https://lddy.no/1iq1nOr listen on: iTunes/Apple podcasts https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/riding-shotgun-with-charlie/id1275691565

The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives has just released a NEW policy manual—ATF O 5370.1H—that officially repeals the Biden-era “Zero Tolerance” crackdown on FFLs (Federal Firearms Licensees). This could be a HUGE win for gun dealers and Second Amendment advocates nationwide… but don’t let your guard down just yet.In this video, we break down what’s changed, what hasn’t, and why this move proves that our pressure is working. We’ll cover the details buried in the ATF’s 30-page manual, how it impacts inspections, and whether this signals a long-term shift—or just a temporary retreat.🔥 Stay informed.

Today we go back over the Supreme Court Orders List, and examine two cases, unrelated to the Second Amendment, but massively important to other inalienable rights, that SCOTUS has rejected. Washington Gun Law President, William Kirk, discusses these two cases and points out that they had similar trajectories of two cases that we have been closely following. So, are we out of the woods yet? Far from it. So learn more today and arm yourself with education.Read Yesterday's Orders List. https://www.supremecourt.gov/orders/courtorders/052725zor_p8k0.pdf _____________________________________________________________________ Have a Video Idea, then Help WGL Out. https://forms.gle/GNCyRw1HRqvAmwik6Subscribe to our Newsletter to stay up to date on all issues that affect your rights by going to https://www.washingtongunlaw.com/newsletter _________________________________________________________________________ Contact Washington Gun Law If you have any questions about this topic, or anything else related to what's left of our Second Amendment Rights, remember you can always contact us at: www.washingtongunlaw.com or call us directly at 425-765-0487.
