Description
How many threads connect firearms in all modes of our society? On today’s episode of The Artful Periscope, Larry sits down with author Chris Grall to discuss his current book Trigger Guard: A Writer’s Guide to Firearms. Grall starts off by discussing his background in firearms and weaponry in the United States Army, the National Guard, and eventually Special Forces. He got into advising when he was reading an audiobook by author Scott Sigler, eventually kindling a friendship between the two writers (Scott even wrote the forward to his book!). In addition to privately consulting, Grall has also been a frequent panelist at Thriller Fest and recounts how a staged fight with his friend and fellow writer Greg Podolski helped illustrate the of importance of doing research to make fight scenes realistic. Then Larry welcomes Chris DeCristofaro, Larry’s producer and host of the podcast The Library Pros, onto the show. DeCristofaro and Grall delve into more specifics on firearms including the spelling of caliber, the history of the AR-15, and the accidental shooting on the set of the Alec Baldwin film Rust.
