## Resource

-- Col. Jeff Cooper developed what's called the modern technique of the pistol and created a school for gunfighting. On what would have been his 106th birthday. Gun Talk broadcasts live from Gunsite and examines the lasting impression of this Renaissance Man. -- How has Gunsite, often called "The Harvard Of Gunfighting," evolved over the 50 years it has operated. Ken Campbell is CEO of this world-famous training facility in Arizona, and he is in the middle of a revamping of the physical facility as well as updating what and and how students are trained. -- At its core, a holster just needs to hold a handgun. Seems simple, and in a way it is. But the small things make a difference. Rob Leahy of Simply Rugged holsters has lived a life with guns, and that experience helps him design and build leather holsters that are comfortable and practical.
