Shooting Tips & How-To

Watch: Travis Haley illustrates the gross motor skill reload with the AK

February 22, 2018 by Matt Jin Leave a Comment

Here’s a secret, we like guns here at The Loadout Room. Unfortunately, there is a myriad of pseudo-experts in the gun community. We’ve all come across them at one point or another; they usually disguise their nonsense with technical terminology in order to sound more legitimate and lure more listeners. They are unlike those with a proven track record such as Travis Haley who has an immense amount of firearms experience as both a veteran Force Reconnaissance Marine and premier firearms instructor. Here is a video of Travis Haley imparting on us some sage wisdom and illustrating the gross motor skill reload with the AK.

Enjoy yourself a little humor today:
