More often than not during a shooting course, may it be pistol, carbine or precision rifle, a few of the students will ask, “Do you shoot with both eyes open?” Before answering the question with a “yes” or “no”, I ask them two major questions before discussing something we all face in a life or death […]
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 […]
I’m sure by now most of you have seen the hype around the TrackingPoint Sniper Rifle. No matter what some may say about the system, it is a cool piece of equipment and I can see the benefits of using one. When the TrackingPoint Sniper Riflewas first introduced, it was exclusively for the long rifle, […]
Crux \ˈkrō\ is a suppressor company that is pushing the envelope and is fast becoming known for building the leading suppressor on the market. The overwhelming response to their performance is the reason they are seeing such growth in the market. And they are not afraid to prove it; with so much fluff marketing out […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
As many of us know, loading magazines by hand can be quit boring, especially when you’re loading them one round at a time. I recently came across this product and thought I’d share it. The AML5.56 (Automatic Magazine Loader 5.56). The patent is currently pending and I haven’t seen any price range on it, though […]
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 […]
***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 […]
