from Off the Beaten Path · host Cush Arrue and Rob Henson

Send us Fan MailWhat happens when a young kid from Miami with no hunting background, no gun-owning family, and no real roadmap finds his way into the firearms industry anyway? Chan's story is one of hunger, mentorship, and the kind of loyalty that doesn't ask permission. From working security at a gun show to becoming Business Development Manager at Taurus USA — this one hits different.We sat down with Chan on the last day of SHOT Show, recorded live at the Otis booth, and the conversation went everywhere — the cultural barriers that keep people out of 2A spaces, why owning a firearm is evidence of personal responsibility, and why gatekeeping our own industry makes zero sense. Chan also gave us an early look at the TX9 series, Taurus's next move in the duty gun space.Plus — the reunion. If you've been riding with OTBP, you already know Chan was the first brother to put us on to the hunt.  Support the showThank you for listening! Follow us @WEAREOTBP
