The Best Defense television show on Outdoor Channel

Met and had a long talk with Bane. Interesting guy and some good insights. My current subscription doesn't include that channel and it wasn't worth the fee to add a set of useless channels.

You'll find some of the episodes and round-tables over on https://www.michaelbane.tv/

I get Outdoor Channel with Sling. In the fall I add the sports package so I can watch ESPN.

Besides Shooting Gallery, there's Guns & Ammo, American Rifleman, Gun Stories, ShootingUSA and a number of others. Some have been in hiatus because of the virus but some have continued in production this summer.

Thanks for the link.
Great shows.

Just to add one thing, if you are an Amazon Prime member you can add just the "MyOutdoorTV" as a Prime Video channel. It has a 7-day trial and then it's $10 a month. I didn't count all the shows, but there are a lot.

Don't forget "Trigger Time." I didn't know "Best Defense" was ceasing production.

My wife always wanted Martha Stewart's job. I told her I wanted Jim Scoutten's or Michael Bane's job.

BTW, Bane is a member here, hasn't posted for quite a while, though.

Hello, I was wondering if anyone else missed this show? I found Michael Bane, Mike Janich and Mike Seeklander to be very informative and to provide actual substance and training options to deal with the situations that they presented like mass killer attacks, road rage incidents, and most importantly how to avoid dangerous situations. I missed the last few seasons as my cable provider didn't offer the Outdoor Network. Also, my understanding is that Michael Bane may be in talks with the USCCA to produce the show.

What are your thoughts on the show coming back? Did anyone else find it informative?

I gave up watching after the hundreth time that the shill for Spyderco had to use a blade and it just HAD TO BE his "company" folder !
I carry a blade,and have for 65 years !.
Including a 25 year stint in New York City !.
We call a folder a "pre broken knife", and that should partly explain my ire at the show.
I carry 3 knives and NONE are Spyderco's and NONE are for S/D as then it would be a FIXED blade.
I have come to appreciate Mr.Bane .
Even though it would behoove the show to highlight a better fit man who is of an age [ like past 50 ] ,as the "target" for the show is likely not young men.
Also would LOVE to have seen the show HIGHLIGHT what the background of the demonstrators is.

Yes, I miss the show as well.
