In this episode of The Mark Blazor Show, host Mark Blazor welcomes Eric Delbert, host of On Target Saturdays on 610 WTVN and owner of LAPD Firearms and Range in Columbus. The conversation begins with a lighthearted exchange about Delbert’s recent appearance on Channel 6 news, where he showcased a Berna less-lethal launcher—a device that fires kinetic or OC rounds. Blazor and Delbert discuss the growing interest in such weapons, especially among gun owners seeking non-lethal self-defense options. The core of the episode centers on the Ohio Supreme Court’s recent decision to allow the city of Columbus to appeal its gun laws, including a safe storage ordinance for firearms in homes with children and a ban on magazines holding 30 or more rounds. While Blazor and Delbert acknowledge the intent behind these laws, they express concern that they could unfairly impact law-abiding gun owners, especially in situations involving property crimes or emergencies. The discussion highlights tensions between public safety, legal precedent, and the practical realities of enforcement. Delbert also touches on the irony of strict magazine laws when criminals often use modified or illegal firearms, such as machine guns with Glock switches, which receive lenient sentences. The episode closes with a nod to Delbert’s upcoming show and a reminder to listeners to tune in for more gun culture and policy talk.
