This video debunks the myth that modifying your daily carry gun can be used against you in court during a self-defense incident. Steve and Caleb, referencing discussions with defense attorneys, argue that functional modifications (like trigger jobs without altering safeties) or sight upgrades are unlikely to be detrimental. However, they strongly advise against cosmetic modifications or aggressive messaging on the firearm, as these can be used to paint the owner as looking for a fight. The hosts found no court cases where a conviction was based on a modified self-defense firearm and conclude that modifications are permissible within reason. For those seeking factory-upgraded firearms, the SIG P226 Legion is presented as an example.
