Rimfire Radio

Episode 37 spirals into pure degenerate anarchy as returning guest Dutch Walker joins the crew to confess his darkest secret—buying a Cabela’s-exclusive "Ninja Turtle green" Beretta Neos—sparking a vicious debate when Dan outs himself as a proud space-gun defender and inverted-pineapple-pizza degenerate. Between planning to harvest Dusky’s organs for a $50K cartel payout to fund custom .22 builds, Dutch showcases his lights-out custom CZ 457 chassis rig and a massive 20-pound .22 ARC precision build that knocked out prairie dogs at 500 yards. Over in the garage, Gat Lab goes full Cajun mad scientist, using AI CAD prompts and PLA filament to 3D-print a hearing-safe .22 suppressor on its side in just two hours. The chaos hits maximum overdrive as the hosts dissect $625 Rare Breed 10/22 FRTs, mock Lenny DW's unhinged Rumble chats, and fawn over Drew’s newly acquired M81 Woodland camo Angstadt Vanquish barrel. It’s an unapologetic masterclass in gun-counter autism, ATF loophole gymnastics, and catastrophic financial decisions.

Episode 36 descends into glorious Second Amendment anarchy as Joe from Shooting Gallery stops by to chat AR .50 BMG cannons and third-degree thigh burns from catastrophic Olight failures. The hosts stage an aggressive intervention for anyone guilty of buying red-anodized accessories, only to immediately praise a gun-counter buddy for dyeing an entire rainbow fleet of Glock frames with Rit dye. Dan brandishes a squeeze-action caulk gun to break down the mechanics of the "caulk stock," while Dusky relives the agony of spending five grueling minutes watching his Tec-22 jam on a match stage that should have taken sixty seconds. Between fawning over 3D-printed titanium suppressors lighter than cheap sunglasses and debating the merits of Romanian AK dongs, the boys prove their moral compass is just as broken as their wallets.

Episode 35 dives headfirst into unhinged Second Amendment territory as Kyle and Drew from One Horse take over the studio to break down their all-American, blue-collar weapon lineup. The crew zeroes in on the flagship Express .22 lineup, dissecting how factory tuning and hand-polishing tame parasitic drag to make the Atreus forced-reset system chew through 50-round drums with zero dead triggers. Drew geeks out over the tight mechanical tolerances behind their precision builds, flexing the sub-half-MOA 6mm ARC rifle and the shop's dedicated AS 556 and RIN 30 titanium suppressors. Between talks of Daniel's custom patriotic Cerakote schemes and teasers for factory-tuned low-back-pressure cans, the One Horse boys prove they're cutting zero corners to deliver premium heat at working-man prices. It’s an unapologetic masterclass in homegrown engineering, relentless QC, and balls-to-the-wall rimfire innovation.

Episode 34 hits peak degenerate chaos as Bob from Gideon Optics joins the crew fresh off a domestic blood-feud with a laundry-basket monster centipede. The broadcast rapidly devolves from pumpkin-spiced Dude Wipes and the Discord’s cursed feet-pic horrors to a heated, deeply unnecessary debate over rifle forend Schnabels. Between unhinged Rumble super chats and Dan’s gun-show Derringer taking an early dirt nap, the hosts attempt to mask their complete financial ruin under the guise of custom builds. Drew burns cash like a trust fund baby while Gat schemes up a suppressed .300 Blackout pig-hunting rig from the depths of a stir-crazy hotel room. In the end, it’s a masterclass in questionable gun autism, sketchy marriage survival tactics, and unapologetic 2A degeneracy.

Episode 33 spirals into peak degenerate territory as special guest Chad from Gun & Gear Review Podcast joins the crew to talk shop about full-auto .22 conversions, inheriting Tony Simon, and his grandma shooting hawks out of the sky from her back. The broadcast swiftly derails when viewers start weaponizing $20 super chats to force Dan into drinking straight Jeppson’s Malort on-air, leaving him contemplating early retirement while complaining it tastes like chewing on pine needles. Meanwhile, Dusky recounts driving hours to a 3-Gun match only to finish dead last after his cursed Remington 887 turned budget shotgun shells into crushed origami. To cap off the madness, Drew mounts a freebie Gideon scope he practically begged off Bob onto a .17 WSM rig with the sole ambition of sniping workplace coyotes out of his truck window.

The boys are back to wage total war against bedside "fart squirrels," but with Gat Lab once again mysteriously absent—leaving the crew speculating about his elderly status and drafting contingency plans—first-ever returning guest Plow Guy Dave steps in to hold down the fort. Dave immediately derails the show with an impromptu infographic crash-course on Colorado’s absurdly convoluted big-game lottery system, mounts a Gideon Rock to a tiny Savage Rascal, and flexes a 5,000-lumen Coast spotlight bright enough to melt coyotes at 600 yards. Meanwhile, Dan gets gifted an actual gag poop knife, sparking a chaotic and wholly unsolicited debate about box-pooping versus the dreaded "drain snake" colonoscopy. The gear talk only gets weirder from there as the crew inspects tiny forend schnabels, Dusky shoots Resilient’s Jesse's Girl suppressor against a JK can on a Tec-22, and Double D shocks the Discord with a bullpup Calico sporting an ER-worthy muzzle device. To cap off the madness, Dan unveils an unholy Glock abomination pairing a 16-inch barrel with both a stock and a brace simultaneously, successfully converting a reliable firearm into a single-shot paperweight.

Episode 31 kicks off with guest Double D proudly reliving his childhood bird-slaughter origin story while flexing an anorexic, carbon-fiber M&P 15-22 that looks like a tactical swordfish with an identity crisis. Between inhaling cold SpaghettiOs directly from the tin like a feral toddler and ogling ten-grand brass Gatling guns on GunBroker, the gang debates pint-sized training rifles and listener mail from their favorite hyper-fixated engineer, Sweet Dale. Dan terrorizes his wife with garden snakes after losing brass-catcher parts in the weeds, then debuts a cursed, ATF-baiting Gen 3 Glock sporting an obscene 16-inch barrel and a folding grip that actively pulverizes your knuckles. Dusky somehow survives face-planting directly into his own scope while dragging his geriatric knees out of a rotting derelict van, miraculously salvaging a carbine match by chain-smoking stogies and redlining his heart on toxic amounts of caffeine. The recorded confession wraps up with Dan dishing out felonious advice on silencing crime-scene witnesses before the crew retreats to Discord to compare meat, though listeners must be warned that absolutely nothing uttered by these degenerates should ever be taken seriously or construed as actual legal advice.

Episode 30 of Rimfire Radio kicks off with Ryan and Dalton from American Crossfire, who somehow manage to bring a wholesome dose of church-raffle luck to a podcast usually fueled by poor financial choices and live-chat chaos. The crew dives into budget-busting gear dreams—hypothetically financing three-thousand-dollar custom builds by harvesting Dusky’s kidneys—while marveling at Tandemkross’s crack-fueled MP5-slap receiver and DIY magazine surgery using spent casings. Things inevitably drift into centerfire rabbit holes, ranging from backyard snake terrors in the tomato patch to Dan offering questionable medical services and ARDrew giving heavily disclaimed, “mediocre attorney” legal advice on suppressor red tape. It all wraps up with an unspoken miracle: ARDrew managing to keep his language clean for an entire two hours out of sheer, uncharacteristic respect for the guests.

In Episode 29 of Rimfire Radio, special guest Charlie Klecker endures a masterclass in podcaster brain rot as the crew roasts GatLab for being one brisk breeze away from a Life Alert commercial and a fresh pack of adult diapers. Dan proudly derails the conversation with the horrifying logistics of his two rescue mutts watching him take a dump, while Dusty brags that he keeps another grown man’s gear stuffed inside his waistband 24/7. The hosts shamelessly solicit unsolicited listener nudes to their official inbox and swap suspect private photos with an engineer named Dayle. Somehow, between pitches for squirrel-nut-themed tactical camo and borderline felony banter, they actually manage to talk guns, celebrating cyberbullying Staccato into submission and hitting a million NFA forms.

Episode 28 kicks off in absolute shambles as the crew auctions off Dusky to fund a full-auto AM-180 dream build before diving headfirst into unhinged gun culture chaos. Special guest Raggle Fraggle stops by to flex some high-end rimfire builds that put the hosts’ questionable gear choices to shame, including a 3D-printed chassis that actually runs and a terrifying hair-trigger revolver that borders on reckless endangerment. Between diagnosing the cycling failures of budget "Temu MP7" chassis, recounting the legendary bar-bathroom extraction of the holy poop knife, and casually plotting how to bypass NFA nonsense on a 4473, the banter gets wildly off the rails. Add in some drunken range reports, broken Beretta safeties, and shameless shill work for discount-code optics, and you get two full hours of unadulterated mediocrity. It’s loud, politically questionable, and proof that four idiots with microphones and too much ammo shouldn't be left unsupervised on a Wednesday night.

Episode 27 of Rimfire Radio is another certified shitshow as the crew welcomes Dalton from Foxhound Firearms to talk custom suppressors, shop life, and hypothetical kidney harvesting for dream Volquartsen builds. Between gratuitously flexing Gideon Optics, clowning on missing hosts, and debating whether Dusky’s suppressed .380 is strictly reserved for defending a Culver's parking lot, the guys recap some questionable range builds and a suspiciously high match score. They briefly attempt to be responsible adults while tearing into the latest confusing NFA injunction drama and ATF audit nightmares for dealers, only to quickly derail back into gun lubes, astigmatism slander, and iron sight elitism. Gat Lab eventually crawls in from the East Coast just in time to dispense parting wisdom about being cool to new shooters, leaving listeners with two full hours of unfiltered Second Amendment degeneracy and zero actual legal advice.

In Episode 26 of Rimfire Radio, ARDrew nurses a bruised ego from a scathing listener email while the crew breaks down guest Chris UYT’s wildly impressive garage machining projects, including a suppressed revolver and an ECM-bored AR-9 barrel. The absolute chaos escalates as Dan conducts a live "desk pop" using 12-gauge dummy rounds and dissects the latest 5.7mm drama between Kel-Tec and StuffNThings. Meanwhile, Gat Lab gets relentlessly roasted into oblivion over AI-generated liver spots, and Dusky recaps his hot-weapon USCCL match runs alongside some questionable .380 ballistics testing. Topped off with breaking NFA litigation news and the usual unfiltered banter, it’s two straight hours of glorious, high-octane gun-nerd degeneracy.

In Episode 25, GOALS: Rice Cracker Range Day, ARDREW, DAN, Gat Lab, and guest Dutch try to piece together their Des Moines trip. They linger on One Horse risking it all with factory forced-reset triggers, then get completely derailed by a West Virginia gunsmith who hands out rice crackers and builds a 6mm ARC that shoots tighter than their attention spans. Gat falls hard for the handmade Sea Spider suppressor so quiet that people kept talking through full magazines, while the rest of the crew bickers about empty tubes, crossbolt safeties, and every new can company claiming to have reinvented physics. A short, careful note about the recent NFA district-court ruling is quickly buried under media-day photos, vendor chats, and the usual awkward creator networking. By the end they’re still baffled that ordinary shooters somehow walked away with media credentials and a PowerPoint full of range pictures.

Episode 24 finds the self-proclaimed "gravy seals" of Rimfire Radio broadcasting live ahead of GOALS to obsess over all the firearms and gear they can’t afford. The hosts painstakingly scroll through the event exhibitor list, taking jabs at everything from saturated AR-15 markets and questionable 10mm carry choices to Turkish imports and "tactical" leaf-blower suppressors. Between side-tangents on Obama, fake IDs, and dodging flock cameras, they take viewer notes on which vendor booths to harass for free samples and live content. Ultimately, the crew marvels that event organizers let them in as media in the first place, promising to make absolute fools of themselves on Range Day.

With Gatlab ditching the show yet again—presumably to fight his high blood pressure, bees, or the surveillance state—the resident degenerates are joined by Whiskey Trail, a self-proclaimed centerfire slave who hasn't shot a .22 since the Eisenhower administration.

The gang dives headfirst into the Rimfire Rundown, drooling over over-priced 10/22 builds, custom Taiwanese bullpups, and Dan’s newest prized possession: a Henry survival rifle that looks like a plastic shotgun stock and functions like a glorified Skittles holder. AR Drew brags about his factory Tippmann FRT setup with an integrally suppressed upper, while Dusky recaps his mediocre steel match performance and details his borderline obsessive 17-round .22 LR chrono tests for "science."

Over on the Centerfire Detour, Dan manages to turn his Beretta 92X into a single-shot paperweight thanks to a suppressor setup that refuses to cycle, Dusky somehow hits a steel target at 100 yards with a subcompact .380 before completely failing on camera, and Whiskey Trail prepares his body for a Texas hog hunt while defending appendix-carrying a full-sized 1911.

In a massive two-hour display of pure firearm autism, the Rimfire Radio crew attempts a live PowerPoint presentation on Rumble that predictably goes completely off the rails. The hosts kick things off by introducing Gatlab as "senile but butt-loaded" before transitioning into a deeply serious discussion about the tactical viability of fanny packs. The gear highlight of the night features a 130-year-old youth rifle saved from a literal garbage dump, which triggers a live "desk pop" video demonstration and pairs beautifully with Gatlab's tragic realization that he ruined his vintage tube-fed rifle by threading it for a suppressor. The show then derails into a chaotic centerfire detour where the guys aggressively debate whether ultra-short AR barrels under 10.5 inches are a viable home defense option or just loud toys designed for range retards. To wrap up the chaos, Dan brags about losing weight just to fit into his appendix holsters, while Dusky proudly flashes his nipples to the audience to celebrate his new tiger-stripe Beretta holster from Klecker Tactical. Finally, Dan cracks a joke about running up to police officers to scream about your gun collection, before the crew invites their remaining twenty viewers to come buy them drinks at the upcoming GOALS conference.

Episode 21, “Baffles, Booze & Bad Choices,” asks the hard questions: why rimfire mostly stops at .22, why we keep doing this show, and how much drinking is too much drinking before the wheels fully come off. Gat-Lab gets sucked into benchrest rimfire, learns some scope lessons, and blows out a ShiftZero PLA baffle, while ARDREW sights in the Ruger American Rimfire and Franklin Armory F17 before getting personally disrespected by the Bergara BMR. Dusky goes full holster goblin with Quiet Frog work, Beretta .380 testing, Hornofdaddy “science,” and bad testing done with great enthusiasm, while Dan contributes the powerful energy of having absolutely nothing. By the end, the captain, lawyer, doctor, and Not Sure have produced rimfire theory, centerfire detours, baffle carnage, questionable sobriety, and enough bad choices to make Episode 21 feel exactly as sharp as it deserves to be.

Episode 20, “Cuck Chair Tactical,” proves that twenty episodes in, we still have no idea what we are doing — but at least ARDREW is herding cats from the nicest cuck chair you’ve ever seen. We dig into DutchWalker’s Bergara B14R and Grey Birch 10/22 clone range results, Chad from Gun & Gear Review winning a Ruger Wrangler, Dewayne showing up with rimfires and actual artistic talent, and Okist immediately doing the Lord’s work by putting a Sparrow on his new Beretta 20X. Dusky gives range reports on the Quiet Frog, Mec-Gar mag hope, Beretta 80X practice, and surviving a USCCL match, while ARDREW swaps parts on the Tippmann, debates glass for the Bergara BMR, ships his GP100 off to Ruger, and prepares to sight in the world’s most cursed Hi-Point URGI. Dan adds night vision to the Hammerli, makes more questionable SBR decisions, and somehow the whole thing remains loud, moist, tactical, and mostly rimfire-adjacent.

Episode 19, “21 Shart,” is another classy descent into rimfire chaos, bad financial decisions, and public embarrassment thinly disguised as content. We hit listener and Discord topics including 10/22 advice, .22 single actions, pistol-mounted thermal optics, Steel Challenge scores, the 2AD Plinky suppressor, and the Beretta 20X Bobcat, because apparently everyone has a problem and none of us are qualified to help. Dusky survives another rimfire steel match and asks the eternal question — who loaded this mag? — while Dan wrestles with Gemtech mistakes, .22 mag derringers, fresh suppressor mounts, and an R50 SBR decision he may or may not deserve. Gat-Lab brings the main event with a thorough 21 Sharp autopsy featuring ruptured cases, out-of-battery firing, and enough disappointment to justify the title, while ARDREW talks Staccato Ranch, his wife shooting her first gun, and sending a Galil off for work because this show is basically a support group with poorer impulse control.

Episode 18, “Okist,” drags listener and unofficial Rimfire Radio father figure Okist into the circus, mainly because he is old as shit and Gat-Lab apparently got lost on the way to the internet. We hit Rimfire Challenge Nationals, the FarrowTech FT-M Kit for the KelTec P17, scope recommendations for a Ruger 77/17 in .17 HMR, and enough half-baked rimfire projects to make a financial advisor start drinking. Dusky beats on his Charger and starts lusting after precision bolt guns, Dan fondles an Ithaca M49 and other .22 oddities, and ARDREW rambles about Ruger Mk3s, VSS-22s, Vortex glass, Outlier cans, and polymer ARs. It is rimfire talk, centerfire detours, absentee co-host slander, and the kind of deeply unserious behavior that keeps our mothers disappointed.
