One of ToddG’s students has a review of the HK45 at Pistol-Training.Com. At the upcoming Aim Fast Hit Fast in Indy, I’ll also be shooting the HK45 instead of my usual heaters, which I’m pretty excited to do. I like guns in .45 ACP, and I’ve been looking for a good gun to shoot CDP and L10 with.
Gun Nuts Last Night: My Top Shot farewell
Don’t forget to check out last night’s episode of Gun Nuts Media, where we talked about my exit from Top Shot, the HAVA Charity Auction, and the fact that History is now casting for Top Shot Season 2! The episode is also available in portable .mp3 format or for our iPhone/iPod users it can be found on 
for your downloading ease! It was a great episode, and again I’d like to thank everyone for their support after my elimination and for listening and reading here at Gun Nuts. We have a lot of good things coming, so keep it here!

Quest for Master Class – Speed Classifier
Last week, we shot the IDPA classifier for accuracy, and finished with a respectable score of 114 seconds and change. This week, we’re going for pure speed. Watch the video and check out the article at Downrange.TV’s Quest for Master Class!
History Channel now casting for Top Shot Season 2
So, internet – do you have what it takes to hang with the best marksmen (and women) in American in Season 2 of Top Shot? The show has been such a success that History has given the greenlight for a second season – and now it’s your turn to try out. Here are the details:
HISTORY CHANNEL SEEKING MARKSMEN FOR SEASON 2 OF TOP SHOT!
If you are skilled with a pistol, rifle or any other firearm, you could win $100,000 in prizes on season 2 of History Channel’s hit competition show TOP SHOT. Producers are looking for anyone with mind-blowing shooting skills and a big personality to take on exciting physical challenges with multiple guns and mystery projectile weapons.
It doesn’t matter if you’re a professionally trained shooter or a self-taught, average Joe (or Jane!). As long as you’re in good physical shape, have mastered a firearm and can adapt to new weapons and demanding physical situations, you could be America’s next “Top Shot.”
APPLY TODAY!
To apply, email [email protected] with your name, city/state, phone number, a recent photo of yourself and a brief explanation of why you should be on the show. Deadline to apply is August 12, 2010. For more information, visit www.pilgrimfilms.tv and click on “CASTING” or call 818-478-4570 for more information.
* Applicants must be at least 21 years of age, a resident or citizen of the United States and reasonably proficient with shooting and marksmanship
This is your chance! I had a blast filming Top Shot, and I believe that anyone that has seen the first season and is interested in taking a run at the show should try out for it. It was a tremendous experience, and you should give it a try!

I am truly at a loss for words
Thank you to everyone for the words of support and encouragement yesterday after my elimination from Top Shot! I wish I had the words to express how touched I am. Thank you all, very much.
I do have a request though – let’s ease up on the personal attacks on Adam Benson. Regardless of how you may or may not feel about his actions, Gun Nuts is not a place for name calling and insults. I didn’t want to do it on the show, and I certainly don’t want to see it happen here.
Thanks again everyone for your support!

We’re back tonight on Gun Nuts Radio with an all new episode, and I’ll give you three guesses what I’ll be talking about…but you probably already figured out by now that the subject of tonight’s Gun Nuts Radio will be my elimination from Top Shot.
Join me tonight at 9pm Eastern time at www.blogtalkradio.com/gunnuts to talk about my elimination from Top Shot! The phone lines and chat lines will be open all show, so I’ll be taking questions from listeners and fans. That’s tonight, 9pm Eastern time, live at www.blogtalkradio.com/gunnuts!
