Precision Shooting in Rain, Sleet and Snow

Precision Shooting in Rain, Sleet and Snow

I’ve been asked on multiple occasions, “Does rain or snow affect the bullet, and how do you adjust for it?” Some precision shooters absolutely freak out when it starts to rain, or may even go as far as to not shoot in those conditions. I like to look at rain, to a certain extent, the way […]

1-5 AR Drill!

1-5 AR Drill!

Here is a fun drill that I like to conduct on the range whenever I’m behind the AR platform. You’ll learn a lot about your platform as well as yourself from this drill, especially if you have a friend record you shooting it. If you’re unfamiliar with trigger reset, muzzle control, eye/weapon target transitioning, body […]

Kalashnikov the correct nomenclature – Part 3

Moving on to the next part of Kalashnikov correct nomenclature. We already discussed the AK and the AKM assault rifles and now it’s time to change calibers. In late 1960s early 1970s the Soviet Defence Ministry received a number of captured M16 assault rifles. What came with them was the 5.56×45 ammunition. The Russian designers […]

At Home Shooting Range Time!

Many times we find that getting to the shooting range can be a hassle, may it be the weather, finances, range limitations, etc.  There is a way you can stay on top of your game when you aren’t able to get out and shoot, and only cost you a few dollars. Something that I make […]

Combat Pistol Training!

Many times we find ourselves “training” on the range or at home.  I ask my students often to describe or show me their combat training regimen. More often than not, I have to break them some bad news….It’s not “combat” training. When training for combat, self-defense, or home defense, you need to practice realistically.  9 […]

Training for Muscle Memory at its Finest!

This has to be one of the best examples of muscle memory that I have ever seen and plan to post a video of myself doing the drill in the featured video as well. I’m sure we’ve all seen the videos of instructors shooting an AR-15 extremely fast at three stationary targets in the 1,2,3,4,5 […]

Improving your Pistol Skills!

After a three-day combat pistol course, a few of the students had questions regarding the exact “grip pressure” needed when griping their pistol.  In the military, we were taught the 60/40% rule of thumb.  60% of applied to the pistol with the main/strong hand, and 40% with the support hand.  I wanted to pass on […]

Gun Safety Reinforced!

***Be sure to watch the featured video before reading on.*** The more we are around weapons, we tend to somehow get a little too comfortable or lackadaisical.  I’ve seen it happen more often that not on the range when individuals start to get a little too comfortable and make minor stupid mistakes, like finger on […]

Talon Horus Optics!

I am often asked, “What reticle do you use on your carbines?” and “What do you think about the Horus Optics/reticle?”. I came across the Talon Horus Optic this weekend and decided to give my views, along with my experience with the Horus reticle as a short/medium and long-range shooter. The Talon scope, and H50 […]

LMT Ergo Rifle Grip!

If you’re wanting an excellent grip for you AR, I’d have to point you to the LMT Ergo Grip.  I don’t think the standard AR grip was designed for comfort one bit.  In fact, it feels like they designed it for the exact opposite, huge calluses start to form on my middle finger joint over long […]
