On the next episode of 3GN Live, we take a look at custom pistol work, an economical pistol line to get you on the range, and a look back at our most notorious target, the Deathstar

This week, on 3GN Live, we’re all about the pistols, as we feature custom pistolsmith work, feature-laden models that won’t break the bank, and even a pro tip to help you be prepared for your next match. And then we’ll switch gears and look at the most talked about target in the 3GN inventory, the Deathstar.

We recently visited with Custom Tactical Concepts, and Corey Truitt, an Army veteran who upon transition to civilian live developed a love for working on guns, and his radical stylings in polymer frame stippling caught our attention.

Canik USA has gained tremendous attention recently for offering extremely economically-priced pistols that are loaded with features. From slide cuts, to Warren sights, to match grade barrels, depending on the model, Canik USA is offering tremendous value for pistol shooters.

When a shooter steps up to the line, we can really put a lot of pressure on ourselves. Whether new shooter or pro, everyone has experienced nerves on the firing line. One technique to help mitigate those nerves is having your make ready procedure down pat, ensuring your pistol is ready to go when you hear the start buzzer. So we caught up with veteran competitor Dean DeTurk to go over the proper manual of arms in this week’s Pro Tip.

Finally, in our last segment, we take a look back at a target we unleashed on the Pro Series a few years ago, and one that created an uproar. The 3GN Deathstar, a swinging Texas Star-style target, proved to be a beast, one that provided incredible highs and lows, when the stakes were at their highest.

Episode #3 airs this Thursday at 7 PM EST, featuring gear tips, product review and match listings.
