All the podcast are killer guys. Single-handedly winning the hearts and minds about dry fire. I’ve got irons, CO and carbine dry fire in today. Being critical of the dry fire sessions is what I am really focusing on now.
49:00 One club I used to shoot at offered an option to pay $5 extra and you could “shoot through” the match. Basically, you would shoot Stage 1, then when you got to Stage 2 they would put you in the “Deep Hole” (3rd or 4th in line to shoot), and so on. I could finish a match in about a hour and a half (including the safety briefing). It was a great option because it allowed guys who want to hang out with their buddies the ability to do that while also allowing guys to cycle through quickly if they wanted to. This obviously wouldn’t work very well if 50+% of people wanted to Shoot Through, but in my experience the number wouldn’t be anywhere near that high at most matches.
I like the ideas about staggered start times. I can spend an hour at the range most days but almost never have the time to spend an entire day shooting 6 stages that total 4 minutes.
I thought we were one of the last teams doing dynamic entries. We still teach to patrol situationally as well for active shooter scenarios. Speed is safety, American residential construction is not cover, inbound rounds come to the fatal funnel, and so on.
I think that is a killer idea Ben, the 4 matches that I hit up regularly take about 30-40 mins per stage depending on the squad size obviously…. Maybe new squad starts every 30 mins or so. That would be killer because I fucking hate wasting the day when I’ve only shot for 60 seconds.
I just took a Church Security Instructor Course. We covered this exactly. If the shooting has stopped, you are going to pie the entry. If the shooting is active, you make dynamic entry, hopefully with two or more guys (but maybe not). The key to dynamic entry is not stopping and blocking the door when you engage the shooter. if you have a partner. We also learned how to "look really fast" when entering for target acquisition. It was different (but correct for the situation) training than I had received on clearing rooms before.
The segment around 33:00 got me thinking about how to truly test your actual skill level. I've been working with a series of cold standards that are pass or fail from the draw and from the ready. The times on those same drills are usually consistently faster after a warm up but I don't think warmed up drills are a true demonstration of actual ability
Great redneck live. It’s hard for me not to be a little too spastic when practicing a one shot sub-second draw in dry fire, and induce poor gaming habits like you fellas mentioned. Would it be better instead, to dry Fire a Bill Drill to a par time, as this would potentially invite a more controlled first shot with better sighting system confirmation, and also a better grip, while impelling one to still keep the draw fast as well…although I guess one can then sort of game unrealistically fast splits in order to make the time? I’d love your thoughts on this.

Absolute banger
At this point I believe you have more pit vipers than underpants in your wardrobe

Where did you take this course?
@@EuropaChronicles I took it at KR Training in Giddings Texas last October.
Active shooter is hostage rescue all the way. All dynamic entry. No pieing.
i sync my reloading sessions up with listening to these.

I had an aero firing pin break on me at about the 1000 round count, I think their bolts are just ok.
9:15 that’s some project
Gekko ,OTG and C.E.T. USA sh*t.
OTG? Isn't that the regular joe cop who went from running a family bug extermination business to starting up "cool guy" CQB type courses? 😂😂😂
We Need PCS League to take off to give Ben somewhere to shine
Sunny in the room? Curious why the sunglasses inside
Who exactly is the guest?
From a former Marine, and cop, LEO are the most fucked up as far as being able to respond to an active shooter, FUBAR!!!!!
Yeees, perfect with a redneck pod. 💪🏻
Pit Vipers: ON 😎
Pants: OFF 🚫👖
Wallet: EMPTY 💰📉
