About this episode
In this episode, John Valenti resets the tone for Season Four by discussing reliable firearms for both range use and carry, while providing his top pick for those looking to purchase a new gun.
Getting back underway with Season Four, I wanted to reset the tone as we head into 2026. I spent real time behind several platforms, and this season isn’t about hype — it’s about perspective. So let’s talk about a few guns that run great on the range, carry well, and I’ll give you my overall pick if you’re in the market for something new.
