(Colion) “Before we even rolled cameras, I didn’t think this was going to work.

I was invited out to California to take part in a live ballistic demonstration involving a Cybertruck — not in a lab, not in a marketing video, but on a real range with real shooters and real calibers.

The testing took place at Taran Tactical, with Taran Butler shooting alongside me. The lead designer from Tesla was also there to see this firsthand.

We didn’t ease into it.

We went straight from handgun calibers into serious rifle fire — including rounds that, on paper, should have exposed every weakness you’d expect from vehicle armor and ballistic glass.

What happened instead caught all of us off guard.

This video isn’t about hype.
It’s not about theory.
And it’s not about “bulletproof” marketing language.

It’s about watching real-world physics play out in real time:
• How ballistic glass handles repeated hits
• What happens when rounds strike the same spot over and over
• How energy transfers after impact
• Why lighter armor usually comes with massive tradeoffs
• And why this result shouldn’t make sense — but does

At one point, we were sitting inside the same Cybertruck that had just been shot…
And returning fire out through the same glass that stopped rounds coming in.

If you’d told me that was possible before this day, I would’ve called it nonsense.

But I didn’t read about it.
I didn’t hear about it.

I watched it happen.

And then, just to make sure my brain was fully broken, the Cybertruck was hit with a .50 BMG from real distance.

This isn’t a demo you forget.
And it’s not something you can explain away.

Watch it for yourself.”

In this episode, Jared breaks down Federalist No. 18 by James Madison, explaining why the Founders studied ancient Greek confederacies to warn America about factional power, weak unions, and centralized coercion. Then we connect the lessons to the Second Amendment and the Founders’ broader blueprint for preserving liberty.

An American gun owner was denied by the ATF for citing his God-given Second Amendment right as the reason to exercise it — and that denial never should have happened.

Sources close to ATF leadership tell me this denial was in error, and that Section I of the form is NOT a valid reason to deny anyone. So why did it happen?

[note: the person put as a reason “EXERCISE MY GOD GIVEN RIGHT’ – probably some unelected government employee bureaucrat didn’t like that.]

Their executives have private armed security. So they do like guns for themselves.
