JOIN THE PEW PEW CREW!

Did you know Eleanor Roosevelt carried her own revolver, and once faced down Klan death threats without Secret Service protection, telling them she would drive her own car and carry her own gun? Massad Ayoob joins Gun Owners Radio in San Diego with a history most people never learned: nearly every American president, and more than a few first ladies, was a gun owner. From Lincoln shooting Spencer rifles on the White House grounds to Eisenhower carrying a .38 in New York City, the stories keep coming. He is also optimistic about the fight ahead. After Wolford, he does not see how the courts can keep justifying assault weapons and magazine bans much longer. Then Mike and Dakota read California's new 140-page anti-gun roadmap so you do not have to, Michael breaks down the Maine Senate race and what it tells you about party loyalty, Dwight Settle shares the Beyond the Teams charity paddle and the Seal One dealer program, the crew answers a viewer question on FSC cards, and Dakota digs into the book Emily Gets Her Gun. Sam closes it out with Stump My Nephew. Chapters: 0:00 — Welcome + announcements: remembering Laura Smith (memorial July 18, Skyline Church) and the July 29 gun-cleaning class 8:33 — Maine Senate: the candidate the machine backed anyway, and why you stay loyal to principles, not a party 14:46 — Massad Ayoob: the presidents and first ladies who carried, plus Wolford and why the assault weapons ban is on borrowed time 42:06 — California's 140-page anti-gun roadmap: what Sacramento is planning for the next five years 1:10:11 — Dwight Settle: the Beyond the Teams charity paddle and the Seal One dealer pilot program 1:48:21 — Viewer question: California FSC cards, the proposed 4-hour class, and whether to renew now 2:00:40 — Emily Gets Her Gun: a reporter's fight to legally buy a gun, and the vets punished for transporting theirs 2:14:10 — Stump My Nephew: the Browning Automatic Rifle Timestamps are from the raw recording.

Michael Schwartz on the Maine Senate Race and the Candidate the Machine Backed Anyway

8 views 5 hours ago

A candidate was recruited, vetted, and backed by party leadership—until voters pushed back. This conversation breaks down how political machines operate, what happens when loyalty to a party takes priority over principles, and why accountability matters regardless of which side of the aisle you’re on. For gun owners and voters alike, understanding how the system works is essential.

Carl DeMaio joins Gun Owners Radio with a calm, practical answer to the "just take the guns" argument. His case is simple: the only thing that reliably stops an attacker is a good person, already there, ready to act. In this segment you will learn: - Why safe-storage mandates leave law-abiding people exposed when it matters most - The reasoning behind "only a hero with a gun stops an attacker" - The Second Amendment framed as the human right of self-defense, not just the right to own a firearm - His five-point plan: educate people on self-defense, national concealed carry, officers in schools, honor the hero instead of the shooter, and fix the background-check data - Where "Let's Roll" comes from and why Flight 93 still shapes how he thinks about it From the Gun Owners Radio archive (originally aired September 2019), back when the show aired as Gun Sports Radio with hosts Dave Stall and Lance Pelkey.

California’s Next Gun Control Plan

478 views July 15, 2026 7:13 pm

California DOJ published a 140-page strategic plan, and it reads like a preview of the next five years of gun control, not just in California but in every state that follows its lead. Mike and Dakota read the recommendations so you do not have to, and break down what they actually mean for law-abiding gun owners. In this segment: -The call to double Cal VIP grant funding to at least 110 million dollars, and where that money really goes -The AB 28 gun-and-ammo tax coming in far below projection, and the push for even more -Expanding the definition of "assault weapons," and how they plan to work around a Supreme Court loss -Turning more everyday people into prohibited persons: non-felony violations, DUIs, and 10-year bans -Why "unlawful possession of a firearm" is being charged as a top-line crime in California -Expanding GVROs, protective orders, and a firearm relinquishment task force -The return of microstamping, and gun-control curriculum in schools This is not a bill yet. It is a roadmap, which means there is still time to weigh in. Read the plan for yourself at the link, and get involved. 🔔 New episodes every Sunday.

Eleanor Roosevelt Was Armed

-Massad Ayoob joins Michael Schwartz in San Diego with a history lesson most people never learned: nearly every American president, and more than a few first ladies, was a gun owner. The stories are remarkable, and they cross every political line. In this segment: -Eleanor Roosevelt's own revolver, her New York carry permit, and the day she faced down Klan death threats with her own gun instead of Secret Service -Lincoln shooting Spencer rifles on the White House grounds, and Theodore Roosevelt the gun collector -FDR, the first legislatively anti-gun president, who kept a loaded pistol by his bed to the end -Eisenhower carrying a .38 with an NYPD permit, Truman, JFK, Reagan, and beyond -Why this history matters to the fight for the Second Amendment today Massad Ayoob teaches with the Massad Ayoob Group.

-Massad Ayoob joins Michael Schwartz in San Diego with a history lesson most people never learned: nearly every American president, and more than a few first ladies, was a gun owner. The stories are remarkable, and they cross every political line.

In this segment:

-Eleanor Roosevelt's own revolver, her New York carry permit, and the day she faced down Klan death threats with her own gun instead of Secret Service
-Lincoln shooting Spencer rifles on the White House grounds, and Theodore Roosevelt the gun collector
-FDR, the first legislatively anti-gun president, who kept a loaded pistol by his bed to the end
-Eisenhower carrying a .38 with an NYPD permit, Truman, JFK, Reagan, and beyond
-Why this history matters to the fight for the Second Amendment today

Massad Ayoob teaches with the Massad Ayoob Group. Find his MAG-20 and MAG-40 classes, including dates in San Diego, at massadayoobgroup.com.

President Trump just signed a sweeping executive order to protect Second Amendment rights—but what does it do? The order directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to review and potentially eliminate federal actions that restrict gun ownership, including ATF regulations, firearm classifications, and enforcement policies from the Biden administration. We break down: What this executive order really means for gun owners Which federal gun laws and regulations could be overturned? How could this impact CCWs, suppressors, and firearms manufacturing? What happens next—will this order hold up? Could this be the most significant rollback of gun control in decades? Watch now to find out!
