Yellow flag laws, competition shooting gone off the rails, and a "Stump My Nephew" question that finally landed — Michael and Sam are coming to you from Virginia with a stacked show. SAF's Bill Sack breaks down what "yellow flag" laws actually are and how they differ from red flag / ERPO laws. Michael Ware of the Iowa Firearms Coalition shares a 15-year grassroots playbook for winning on the Second Amendment.
