Felt recoil comparison between comp'd Shadow Systems, Gen 5 Glock 19, TISAS PX-9 Carry, and HK VP9 Tactical. The VP9 is a spectacular gun but exhibits a vexing amount of muzzle flip for a full size, 17 1 service pistol.
Glock Testing with Gideon Jumbotron
zhlédnutí 81Před 2 měsíci
This giant window pistol dot will not actually be named the Jumbotron. It is in prototype phase. The Gen 5 G19 was a joy to shoot today straight out of the box, not oiled or prepared in any way before 200 rounds of the cheapest ammo available were fired through it for testing purposes today. This video to help assess slide speed and casing ejection. There was no evidence on the optic of casings...

This is part teaser for something I'm working on for the Gideon Optics channel, and part test to see if CZcams will let me get away with using the music.
G48 Judge II slow motion

Slow motion video shooting a prototype next gen pistol dot. Purpose of the video is to ascertain whether ejected empty casings are impacting the aluminum scope body or glass. Preliminary indications are that brass is not impacting this optic despite the extreme forward offset of the lens hood. Lens hood was developed to facilitate a built in sun shade to help prevent glare from the sun and othe...

Demonstrated Concepts Hoodie Live Fire

DCON Hoodie from Rhett at Demonstrated Concepts. One magazine's worth of draws from concealment followed by explanation of what I think are best practices for the type of firearm I'm using at the moment. Get your own DCON Hoodie here: demonstratedconcepts.com/product/the-hoodlum-dcon-hoodie/
change the fov in settings to 67, this will fix both viper 25x scope and vudu 6x to include the reticle, this game PiP feature is not fully complete so 1x on any fov thats not 60 is going to be weirdly scaled but yeah
Great shooting Tex!
The hoodie-draw is a pretty novel idea, makes me wonder what other ideas D.C. has in store for us.
Everything that Rhett at DC does is a different look out of the box, but it works. Really interesting guy.
Very interested In trying one out, hook me up Mike, 😅
I dunno about this one Mike. Personally, I spent nearly a year perfecting my optics draw stroke and I'm not sure I would want to modify it again around a single piece of seasonal clothing.
I understand that and I think it's valid. For me this thing is a cheat code to faster DTFS even with the oddball draw stroke, but I'm generally pretty mediocre at DTFS, I'm stuck in the 1.4-1.6 second range at 5 yards just wearing a tee shirt. So for me it's easy to say, I'm mediocre normally and this One Simple Trick(tm) helps boost me past my mediocrity. If I had done the work to be lightning fast generally, the trick hoodie probably would not benefit me as much as it does and I would be less excited about it.
First, You should be practicing with anything you wear while carrying (jackets, sweatshirts, t-shirts, pants, shorts, etc) regardless of how often you wear it. You never know when you may need to draw while you just so happen to be wearing something you don’t usually practice with. Second, if you don’t practice adjusting to different possible real life scenarios where you may not get the chance to have a perfect regular draw, you probably should, because you may not have the time to make a perfect draw. Yeah you’ve perfected your draw but in the best possible scenario. What happens if that’s not the case when comes time to use it? Are you prepared for that?
Given that you START from 1, it’s not going to hurt your normal draw. Cheating from the pocket makes for winnable gunfights.
Good to see you Mike! Hope all is going well. Cool video and product. Subscribed.
I swear I’m not stalking you 😂 just following
Looking forward to more content
A couple of points I want to make. The first half of the video is a bit tedious but it was all done in one take, to show that the performance is predictable and repeatable. I didn’t snag half the time and try to hide it with a bunch of fancy cuts and cool music. Maybe it’s boring but what you see there is a full magazine worth of draw practice at speed, just around one second draw to first shot time, a bit lower, a bit higher. Secondly, this was my first afternoon of live fire with this setup ever. I’m still wrestling with it, still figuring things out, still not quite comfortable. If you see Rhett’s videos of him wearing the same hoodie he is much smoother and more fluid. Why? Because he’s put in a ton of work on this, and what you see here is my first live fire range session.
