138: Grayman and Company - Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy
Following a chance encounter with the CBRN crew at a SHOT show party, Alex, founder of Grayman and Company, joins Nathan and B.R to share his journey from private Intelligence work overseas in Asia, Africa, Europe and beyond to founding Grayman, a bespoke tailor for truly low-vis armed professionals. Alex shares his story from working human intelligence jobs against counterfeiters of luxury and pharmaceutical brands in China to globe trotting for work out of London and his behind the scenes interactions with the children of powerful Oligarchs, politicians and other colorful characters.

136: Legal Rocket Launchers with Jonathan Wild of Wild Arms Research & Development
Can a private individual own functioning rocket launchers in the United States? Blowing that question out of the water with us this week, Nathan and B.R are joined by Jonathan Wild. Jonathan is the author of "Expident Recoiless Launcher, Panzerfaust”, “Man Portable Air Defense System: Fliegerfaust”, “Flame Assault Shoulder Weapon: M202A1 Flash”, his newly released: “Expedient Recoilless Launcher: Panzerfaust” and the owner of Wild Arms Research & Development. The lads talk how Jonathan got into DIY launcher building from a background in competition shooting, the Form 1 legal process behind building launchers, the mission of Wild Arms Research and Development, pushing the 2nd Amendment *back* to it’s historical precedent, the history behind launchers leading back to the American Civil War with the Hale Rocket Launcher, and how proliferation of DIY firearms such as JStark’s FGC-9 have had significantly more impact on the world than anything multi-million dollar US manufacturers have developed in years. The gang also get into Jonathan’s British origins, having moved stateside in 2007 from the UK, B.R and Jonathan’s shared desire to own an SA80, @alyandkaufmanllc’s ‘AKB-23’ BRN180 SA80 clone kit, how antiquated launcher designs may have renewed utility in combatting drones in a much more affordable manner and much more!

132: Jared of Orion Training Group - What is 'Masculinity'?
Orion Training Group's Jared returns to Art and War to chat with Nathan and B.R about life, learning and nonsense in equal measure. The lads start off with talk of Chinese food, sunning your taint and the time an older woman walked into a OTG class and began roasting dudes. Jared also gets into how OTG have expanded to featuring ‘force on force’ in all classes going forward and how adding real consequences to training elevates the curriculum, what Blake is getting up to teaching guys how to live out of a pack in the woods and what base level of competency someone wanting to take his classes should aspire to.
On a heavier note, the guys talk about how ‘masculinity’ has been hijacked from meaning a loyal, community and family oriented protector and the consequences that has had. The guys also get into the lessons learnt from bad actors in our community, how to better identify them and what can be learnt from grifters and predators slipping under the radar. All that, and much more!

131: KommandoStore - Who is ‘Ivan’?
After 11 years of anonymity while running KommandoStore, founders Basil and Ashur join Nathan and B.R to give the origin story behind /K/’s favorite internet surplus store. The lads get into starting out buying surplus USMC backpacks from a government auction in high school, selling them out of Basil’s childhood basement and how 4Chan and the ’S.T.A.L.K.E.R Challenge’ created the basis for their first customer base.
The guys also get into how they came to work with Arktis, learning that the Crye Precision Legal department are actually pretty friendly when sending cease and desists, the history behind both the cursed and wholesome ‘box art’ sent out to customers and how they shutdown a state’s shipping hub literally through ‘weaponized autism’, how a con artist attempted to work with KS to bring back the Italian Mateba Autorevolvers and navigating Russian customs and bribes throughout the C0V1D and war in Ukraine era to bring Gorka suits to their customers and eventually importing a Gorka employee to the states to help them avoid Russian conscription. All that and much more in this episode!

130: FACELESS - Low Level Perpetrators
Faceless, the creative chaotic enigma behind Zero Sleep and Low Level Perpetrators joins Nathan and B.R to talk all things propaganda, rebellion through art and give us insight into some Faceless lore. The lads start off with Faceless’ origin in the remnants of California’s ‘Wild West’, coming up as a street wear fashion brand until he was cancelled in the fashion industry, why Vice Media snubbed his brand for not being ‘urban’ enough, his jump to the gun industry, learning that copyright law is essentially meaningless when multiple massive brands stole his work, going full bore into propaganda and radical messaging and why ‘Art Villain’ has connections to the 2020 Afghan pullout.
The lads touch on the post-SHOT drama, make some F/M jokes, B.R shares how the early days of guerrilla photoshoots with Finance and Maneuver quickly turned sloppy and lead to people distancing themselves and Faceless talks about some weird interactions he had that sound all too familiar. Faceless also shares how he was unwittingly roped into the investigation of Idaho killer Bryan Kohberger by a follower and how schizophrenic Facebook moms are still deep diving his background as a result and much more!
