Is anyone using this ? I picked it up about 2 months ago and have shot as of tonight, 20,012 "rounds". In short it is a virtual reality shooting simulator. I should start by saying I have not really played video games since you actually went to arcades to do it. Like say the late 80's. That made...
A high level of marksmanship allows for a higher practical skill set to be built. If you can’t shoot small offhand groups on demand, you will be limited in how far you can go when pushing the balance of speed and accuracy.
I want to reiterate, that basic self-defense, at the close ranges...
There is a really good article in the January edition of the Rangemaster newsletter on many things people ask about regarding red dots on carry pistols. Yes, it is more than a paragraph long but I think it is worth the read. I pretty much echo most of what the author says.
January Rangemaster...
John Hearne, John Holschen, Tim Burke, and Randy Harris discuss their experiences at the National Tactical Invitational and how many different things go into a complete self defense package. Some of you here can help me remember, we used to have a member here who had a mock town in or near Indy...
Spend enough time on the internet, and you will encounter someone who opposes the use of shot timers in training and practice. Sooner or later you will encounter a statement to the effect of, “There ain’t no timers in a gunfight!” To the beginner, this may sound like wisdom. “It’s true,” one...
This is something I remember Ayoob writing about back in the day and always found it interesting.
First Shot Fliers link to Article.
Picture from article posted as a tease.
Many people when they want to get better at a certain drill or test just practice the test ad infinitum. While this may work eventually, there is a better way. Yes he starts the video with some sarcasm.
Seeing a post from Greg Ellefritz about failing the No Fail Drill, and then seeing a reel on Instagram from Matt Pranka from XRay Alpha asking would you rather be the shooter who can shoot 100's on B-8's at 25 or the guy who can shoot doubles at 25 with .2 splits keeping them in the Alpha...

Tamara hits on something here that really bugs me. When I watch most reviews on YT for handguns they will all say how accurate a gun is right after they blast away at a rather large steel plate at a rather close distance...
I actually first heard of the drill he mentions from Gabe White, no matter it is good stuff and could possibly be very useful to a bunch of us.

Not sure how I missed this article. I am following TPC pretty heavily these days and just finished reading a good book by the late Ron Avery (one of the founders of TPC), called Reactive Shooting Science. Anyway the following article came across my screen today. I have to admit, even with my...
So you might wonder why I shared this here and not the competition sub forum. I think there is a lot that can be gained for the semi serious to very serious gun carrier by competition. This video highlights a lot of the reasons. These guys are pretty good stand and deliver shooters, however you...

This is the work of Riley T Bowman. The automaticity chart originated with John Hearne. It just so happens John has a couple of classes coming up in Indiana soon. Because most of this is on FB I will link Rileys Website and of course if you are on FB...
Picked up from my LGS today. Did not get the usual discount and paid $439.99 + tax. That is what you get for being impatient. Why did I get this pistol? The plan right now is to run it in Backup gun (BUG) division of IDPA this year. I was looking for the largest and easiest to shoot gun that...
I have heard parts of this in Dave's classes but not the whole thing.
I recently read a posting on the internet that caused me to scratch my head. The author made an impassioned plea for the superiority of the .45 ACP cartridge over all others claiming, “ball .45 will stop a man 9 out of 10...
