Man Duct Taped to His Seat at 35,000 Feet | Gun Talk Nation

You saw the headline. Now hear what actually happened. Richard O'Lenick of Gun For Hire in New Jersey was on a flight when a passenger started choking the guy next to him — and Rich and his store manager Juan, a retired cop, didn’t hesitate.

What followed was 20-plus minutes of biting, fighting, zip ties, and an entire roll of duct tape. Ryan Gresham and Rich break down the full story, the mindset that got them moving, what you can legally carry on a plane, and why situational awareness at 35,000 feet is completely different from anywhere else.

This Gun Talk Nation is brought to you by Leupold, Ruger, Remington Ammunition, Shooting Sports Life, Savage Arms, and Range Ready Studios.
