Size Matters: Science Says So | Episode 231 30:13

37 weeks sitten30:13

We've all heard the theory: Gun owners must be overcompensating for something — or rather, their lack of "something." The bigger the gun or the more guns a guy has, the smaller his ---- must be, right? There's even a hypothesis called the “psychosexual theory of gun ownership”. Well, a team of sociologists from The University of Texas at San Antonio, Texas A&M University, and Florida State University finally decided to put the theory to the test. Earlier this month, they published their findings in the American Journal of Men's Health. The results may or may not surprise you...

Haters Gonna Hate: Firearm Export Restrictions | Episode 228 49:29

Legislators may not be calling for an all-out ban on all firearms, but they are taking a death-by-a-thousand-cuts approach. Case in point: The U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) recently extended the "temporary" ban on exporting firearms, ammunition, and related components to non-governmental end users in select countries. The Gun Cranks sound off on the impacts we've already seen and what the extension could mean for the future of the firearms industry. 03:12 - Welcome 01:52 - News & Views 13:47 - Mailbag 34:25 - "Hold My Beer" Awards Related Link: • https://www.commerce.gov/news/press-releases/2024/04/department-commerce-restricts-export-all-firearms-non-government -- Hit the subscribe button to be notified when the next Gun Cranks episode is live, or sign up for the Guncrank Chronicles weekly email newsletter (https://americanhandgunner.com/newsle...) to get it delivered straight to your inbox. -- You can find past Gun Cranks episodes in their former home: https://www.youtube.com/@GunCranks…

Watching the old become new again is a constant in life. We see it with clothing trends, music, and yes, even guns. Two recent examples come to mind: The resurgence of leverguns and how new, younger shooters are "discovering" revolvers. In this episode of Gun Cranks, Brent T. Wheat and Roy Huntington share another example — the return of the M16A2-style rifle.

The Browning Hi-Power is one of the most revered pistols of all time, and for good reason. But that fact alone apparently isn't enough to stop American Handgunner Editor Tom McHale from committing heresy, prompting the Gun Cranks to dive into the changes and innovations seen in modern high-power firearms and challenging the notion that classics should remain untouched. Also in this episode, learn how you can find out exactly how old your Buck knife is and see the "Hold My Beer" Award video that left the Cranks begging producer Ashley to hit the stop button.
