  • Company CEO Lucas recently traveled to New Mexico for some business and spent some time with T.REX ARMS friend @J_Mooniz (instagram). This is the video of their time running drills together. These are some of the drills Lucas shoots on a regular basis.

      cockerrocker, it's to check if the slide didn't lock back on the last round. So when you fire again, you don't look like a jackass with an empty chamber.

    • @cockerrocker
      @cockerrocker Před 7 lety +5

      xomanowar42 well, before we get into another long, drawn out circular argument about this, let me just state that after your course of fire is over, whether or not your chamber is empty is irrelevant. I'm not critiquing any shooting ability or philosophy, merely making an observation on something that is done only during competition drills. That's all.

Thanks for all the knowledge you share and for the great products you have brought to the industry.

    Wow. Just reading some of the comments on this post. I haven’t watched many of your videos but it’s obvious that you’re an experienced shooter. The drills were cool to see. It’s never a bad idea to know the condition of your firearm before you holster it. I don’t get the press check comments either. Only critique I’d give this video in watching the training is after each course of fire, there are no scans for other threats before you holster. The gun is being put away too fast. Get those scans in, it may save your life.

I need to practice shooting "on the move" more often. Oh, I just wanted to say that you guys obviously work VERY hard, and it shows dramatically. Outstanding display of gun handling skills.

  • @nathanstrange168
    @nathanstrange168 Před 8 lety +22

    Can anyone come up with and present to me why there would possibly be any reason to press check after you shoot a course of fire??... Especially when you don't even reload before re-holstering...

    • @joshuafreeman4459
      @joshuafreeman4459 Před 8 lety +9

      For me personally it's because of two instances that have happened to me 1. I overrode the slide stop and the slide didn't lock to the rear on a empty mag. 2. I was shooting support hand only and depressed the magazine release enough to not release the mag slightly and not chamber the next round. I caught it on a press check. Also a good reason is your slide stop might have broke and it is not locking the slide to the rear.

    • @cockerrocker
      @cockerrocker Před 8 lety

      Joshua Freeman I have a couple of questions for you.
      1) If your course of fire is over, is there any reason to check for a round since it is over? Also, aren't you going to load and check again anyway for your next run?
      2) Do you think it is ingraining bad habits to immediately pull your gun back and drop the mag after firing?
      Just curious.

    • @joshuafreeman4459
      @joshuafreeman4459 Před 8 lety +1

      cockerrocker why not do it? I just gave two reasons why it's a good idea. Maybe that depends
      I do not unload the gun after an exercise. So I'm not sure where you got that

    • @cockerrocker
      @cockerrocker Před 8 lety +1

      Joshua Freeman to answer your question; because it serves no functional purpose.
      Here's what I mean: When my course of fire is over, and I do a press check, I'm going to get one of two results; either I see brass or no brass. If I see brass, I'm not going to shoot again, so it doesn't matter. If I do not see brass, and assuming I have another mag on me, I'm not going to reload to leave the line am I? Either way, to get ready for the next course of fire or drill, I'm going to reload and press check anyway am I not? To me, it just seems like "something to do" after a drill/exercise, but really has no applicable purpose.
      My second question was in regard to the actual video. I question why people snap their guns back immediately and drop the mag right after a shoot. It just seems tactically unsound.

    • @nathanstrange168
      @nathanstrange168 Před 8 lety +2

      cockerrocker In regards to the press check at the end... I don't think it is truly needed, but what Josh is saying makes sense. If you're serious about shooting you want to train as if your course of fire was an actual engagement. In which case even if you are not going to shoot another drill immediately you want to make sure your firearm is in a condition that is ready to fight before you reholster.

    If I pull my slide back on my
    Glock 19 with a round chambered I can make the cartridge eject out into the air like you did and grabbed it?

    As usual, the thunderous net-trolls/netsperts are jumping all over these guys for "press checks" (as if they're trying to look "Operator"), etc. Quite frankly, who gives a rats ass if they frequently press check or use any other technique so long as it's within safety constraints. I've been in the shooting/training business for over 3 decades and have pretty much seen it all. These guys show excellent skill/technique regardless of their backgrounds. Such skill only comes with good training, tons of self motivated practice iterations/repetitions and being bold enough to improvise & innovate your own standards. Good job Lucas!

    How do you manage to keep muzzle flip like that? I shoot a 1911 in .45 ACP ang my muzzle always rises at least 3 inches, making controlled pairs really slow.

    You never know what kind of wardrobe you’ll be in when you need to defend yourself. Doesn’t matter wtf you’re wearing as long as the attacker knows they chose the wrong person to attack.
