Episode 287
This week I have a very special guest, my mentor and friend, Tim Butler. Tim served in the Marines in the gulf war and since then has worked as an engineer for many if not most of the major gun manufacturers in America. While he may argue this point, I believe he has influenced firearms more than any other individual in the past century, and more than likely, if you’re an American hunter, you own a firearm that Tim worked on. Make sure to check out the portion of this episode where he describes making the pistols carried by the guards of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier— more detail and nostalgia have been put into these sacred firearms than any other in active military service. Give me chills.
