This is Why You Never Challenge a Navy SEAL…

In this clip from The Shawn Ryan Show, defense tech founder Ethan Thornton steps onto the range with former Navy SEAL/CIA contractor Shawn Ryan for a shooting challenge that quickly turns competitive. As they run through targets at multiple distances, Ethan gets hands-on experience firing the SIG Sauer MCX SPEAR — the powerful battle rifle adopted by the U.S. military’s Next Generation Squad Weapon program. What starts as a friendly range session turns into a fast-paced shooting competition, testing fundamentals, recoil control, and accuracy under pressure. As Ethan learns, shooting the rifle in real life is very different from watching “YouTube armchair experts” talk about it online.
