Your wisdom will be sorely missed. Ive learned so much from your videos and teaching style. Absolute wealth of usable, practical information. Not just some guy shooting steel in a tactical suit. Thanks paul!!!!!
In a world full of so-called, self-proclaimed "experts", it's very rewarding to see a true professional providing real-world, solid information. Once again, another great video. Looking forward to the next ones. Thank you, sir.
I don't use night sights and only have lights on my long guns, but those can go out. So I often wondered about using the muzzle flash to correct sight alignment and this is the only video I've ever seen addressing the subject. As many have said before me here, great video with a real world perspective. I particularly like how the viewer is not being patronized and treated like a little kid with endless PC safety checks, dummy guns and what not.
do you carry paul's famous 3 dollar flashlight in your pocket? i carry like a 33 cent flashlight i bought at a gas station in my pocket. mainly because if i lose it its not a big deal.
Great video and a very important topic I think most folks miss. If we are not careful we will only train during the day when the lighting is excellent and that might not be the case in a self defense situation. Matter of fact the probability is probably higher that you will need your firearm the most when it's dark or in low light areas!
That's a good point. even during the day there are a lot of low light areas indoors. It's too bad that a lot of people don't have access to low light ranges
And with older people myself included, my night vision is nowhere as good at 62 than at 30! I carry among other things a mini mag light as part of my EDC.
@@PaulHarrell i can see how it would go down if someone tried to open a dark range. johny: hey billy i have a great idea! billy: what is it? johny: its a range, but you cant see shit! billy: that is a shit idea. trust me. johny: no its not. its for self defense training! because some people will try to rob you at night! billy: how do you enforce safety dumbass? johny: well I'll just put some signs up that say something like "caution if you shoot somebody you will get thrown into the hyena pit" or something like that billy: if you cant see shit than how will you know if your rifle is pointed in a safe direction? johny: good question. uggghhhhmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm. i dont know.
@@PaulHarrell I think the single most useful thing about having enough land to shoot on is the ability to practice night shooting, and multiple target engagement.
Considering the majority of home invasions happen at night, or in the early hours of the morning, this training and these techniques are invaluable. Thank you very mush Paul, you’re the most B.A dental assistant ever! : ) Oh Paul, if you ever want to borrow a Mossberg Shockwave for a presentation let me know. I’ll give you my contact info if you’re interested!
You could practice at the range in broad daylight wearing welding goggles. That'll make it appear to be dark while following safety protocols. And you won't be at home, so perfectly safe.
Paul, I have been nonstop watching your videos since I discovered your channel. Thank you sir for what you have done for our country as well as educating your viewers in such a professional manner.
Paul's videos are always informative and entertaining. My favorite CZcams firearms channel. My home defense firearms (12 gauge shotgun and 9mm carbine) both have holographic sights and flash lights. The red (or green if I prefer) reticle eliminates the issue of acquiring sights in the dark. It also eliminates the issue of my having to be wearing my glasses (due to aging eyes). That reticle is sufficiently sharp with or without glasses. Big help. I use flashlights mounted to the weapon with the on/off button at the back of the light. Thus, I really don't have to reposition my hand on the forestock or forend to turn it on or off. There may be situations where I prefer not to turn on the light until almost ready to shoot. There has been some changes in our home security set-up that minimizes lighting issues, but I'll discuss that later in this post. I'm an Engineer who has spent the last 38 years designing and developing kinetic switches. These are used in almost all major military weapons systems, such as missiles, rockets and aerial bombs. I have used my background to design a simple "toss and light" LED lantern. This is a fantastic tool for illuminating an entire room or area, and not have the light point right back to me. I push the recessed "on" button. I then toss the lantern into the room, a good distance from me. When it hits the floor, wall or even furniture, an all-aspect sensing impact switch powers up a 3 volt latching relay, which then switches on power to the lantern. Just like that, the room is lit. Moreover, an intruder's eyes will immediately go to the lantern, not to me. This buys me a few seconds to determine if the intruder is really someone who doesn't belong in the house. It also causes the intruder to suffer a brief period of disorientation and light blindness. Within that period of time, I can determine if I need to shoot or not. The lantern is a commercial product that I have modified for this purpose. I made a pair of these. I keep both in my nightstand bottom drawer. Practice and preparation are the greatest factors in home security/defense. Having every possible advantage is the most important security provision one can get. Short of night vision goggles, I have made our home as intruder unfriendly as is feasible. An alarm system is first and foremost. I installed a SimpliSafe system, largely because it provides me with great customization options. It's completely wireless. We recently renovated the house we own, and I had the electrician install an illuminated master light switch panel just outside of our bedroom door. From there, I can turn on (or off) two high hat LED lamps in the center hallway, or in the living room, or in the kitchen, or the TV room or the entry foyer. It also controls an LED lamp in the garage and several outside flood lights. All switches are labeled. These lamps are in addition to the normal lighting and controlled only on this panel. This provides illumination in the event of a security issue or simply because one needs to get up in the middle of the night and not have to stumble around in the dark to get to the light switches within the various rooms. This solution was well worth the investment. We have motion sensing lamps outside, but they cannot cover all areas. Now, from the master panel, I can light those areas manually. Hear a strange noise outside? Light up the property from the bedroom door... These changes almost make flashlights and the "toss and light" unnecessary. I say "almost", because a power outage is always possible and tactical constraints still apply... You may not want to light up the house before exploring it, as this benefits the intruder nearly as much as it does you. Decisions should be made based upon specific situations that often cannot be predicted. Always be prepared to improvise and adapt. Having something and not needing it is always better than needing something and not having it.
I have crimson trace lasers on my concealed carry guns and lights on my home defense guns but they are mechanical things that can fail. This is great information for a back up plan if that should happen.
Yes flashlights are good for illuminating/target ID, but they’re also extremely valuable in target disorientation. If youre in the dark, you hit the target with a high output light, they’re effectively blind for a 1-2 second window, which allows you to reposition yourself so that you’re no longer where they last saw you. You don’t have this ability with a low lumen light. That’s why you don’t cheap out on a handheld light.
Strobes, too. If they have enough light to affect downrange eyes. In follow up to this video Paul mentioned a pistol-mounted laser that works steady and also flashing. I wondered about the flashing mode.
(3:00) "I can just point it down the hallway, and I'll hit something." What does he think he has? A blunderbuss? Incidentally, if you *have* a blunderbuss, that would be an awesome video.
When I worked at a college rifle range, I taught many different classes. One technique I taught was shooting at night without night sights. We were using 686 revolvers. The technique Paul Describes as flash firing. It works great. And then..... We got some new ammo. Very low muzzle flash. What a dud feeling.
Nicely done. To place good night sights on my three pistols will cost close to the purchase price of another pistol, so this has to be done in steps. This means that any low-light shooting education is appreciated. I have a laser on one pistol, and I find the laser is a better active aquisition device (until it stops working.) What's your take on laser use? Again, nicely done video.
I think it was worth mentioning tritium sights in this video. They have their own advantages in low light situations, at least good alternative to completely blind point/flash shooting.
Were watch a Paul Herrell video so there will be shooting in the background 😄😁 and were can i get a magic jacket like pauls it produces guns from every pocket
Got a LaserMax Laser/Light Combo. Rechargeable batteries. (8) For Dry Fire. Got to learn Low Light now! We have alot of moisture here and electronics can fail for or damp or temp changes. LOL !
I'm sure this has been asked before and might be a dumb question but what is it that you do with your colt all the time right before reholster? is it a chamber check or what?
Good point! I would add: One eye or two eyes open? Reason for the eye/eyes question is related to your question, and becoming night blind due to the flash. It is why pirates wore an eye patch in the day. When they went below decks - where it was dark - they dropped the patch and could see better from that eye.
Tried the flash-fire/see-sights method in a deliberately-darkened indoor range. Learned NOT to have 2 rear dots & 1 front dot all the same color! I was off, off & off (& fighting against my 'instinct'). Point-&-shoot can be more reliable. Proprioception - aka "knowin' where your body's at". Also, if the target’s pretty close, the flash may briefly light the TARGET.
From Army training, in low light aim low because you will tend to shoot high Shotgun pattern, I saw a movie where they used sawed off double barrels, they were sawed off so much that the shell stuck out the end of barrel.........so what kind of pattern would they get?
Probably a dumb question but I'll ask it anyway. If you're inside your house at night, when would you use a handheld flashlight as opposed to just turning on the ceiling lights?
You can shine a flashlight in someone else's eyes and it will blind them, but help you. I've seen cops use the strobe feature, and they wave the light around while closing distance to the target, so it makes it harder for the target to approximate your range.
Paul could I ask you a question please I'm not an experienced man with guns compared to you I have cross dominance by been right handed and left eyed I am very experienced with a bow as I shoot instinctive with a traditional bow where I keep 2 eyes open. Would I be able to pick this skill up for rifles and pistols as well shooting with both eyes open?
That sounds like a good topic for a video. Short version: yes, you can learn to shoot instinctively with guns. That's what I was doing shooting out the window of the car in the shooting from a car video. But for most of us it takes a LOT of work to achieve even marginal skill. cross eye dominance is a problem for some people and some will advise you to shoot left handed to shoot with your dominant eye. If you're like most people you can't even write left handed let alone shoot that way and I usually advise that a dominant hand beats a dominant eye (unless there's other factors like being partially blind, etc.).
Well, I guess I am what you might call ambi-dominant (is this even real?) in that I can change eye dominance. Definitely not ambidextrous, although I can shoot weak handed fairly well, but not as well as my strong hand. Now that I think about it, I guess what I am really doing is forcing my brain to focus on the non dominant eye picture and ignore the dominant eye.
It's a great range. in eastern Oregon near La Grande. Not public, must be a member ($70 per year?) Lots of ranges and management isn't wrapped too tight. Lots of good shooting events, annual archery rendezvous, Black powder events etc.
Are tracer rounds illegal for civilian use? I've never even thought about it until watching this video, but I can't ever remember seeing any on the shelves.
Just saw your question. Yes, tracers are legal in the U.S. there may be restrictions in a few places. They can be expensive and sometimes hard to find. They also are hard to see at typical self defense distances.
If you're going to shoot at things you can't see and use your muzzle flash to correct then you better hope your first shot was aimed higher than your tallest child. Excellent technique for hitting your target but if your at home put the damn lights on!
Paul Harrell It's actually a compliment as he was a movie star and a badass. The name of the movie is Death Warrant, and you have a striking resemblance to the villain named "The Sandman." I enjoy all your videos by the way.
Nobody, ... nobody covers this aspect of shooting. Even though there's a high probability someone will be firing in conditions like theses in a "real world" shooting.
I find it appalling yet indicative of society that Detroit Threat Management Center has 1.33 million subscribers. I mean it’s hilarious but I’ve learned more useful info from Paul’s intro than anyone will paying for D.U.S.T.
I found the Sore Ass Judge to be a gimmick at worst, and a kinda cool toy at best, but it's just that, a gimmicky toy. It's still a weapon, but not anything I would choose from a selection of handguns, unless they were all really really bad handguns. An old Galesi .25 ACP would be better than the Judge.
Your wisdom will be sorely missed. Ive learned so much from your videos and teaching style. Absolute wealth of usable, practical information. Not just some guy shooting steel in a tactical suit. Thanks paul!!!!!

I think Paul has already proven repeatedly that you can’t manage to hit ANYTHING with a Taurus Judge.
Again another great video with real info.

Great Video Paul Your Tips are Spot on 😎👍🏼 I like the Flash Fire Technique I also carry a 1911 Colt 5"Gvt 45ACP
Oh man, this reminds me of the live night fire exercise in basic training, loved it!!!
The tracers help A LOT, don't they? I'm afraid you'd set your bedroom on fire if you missed the bad guy though!

Always getting insights here.
Your a god damn genius.....
Good Stuff!!!
Moral of the story: Don't try to sneak up on Paul Harrell in the dark.
Always great content. Also, he looks and sounds like a mixture of David Carradine and Billy Crystal. Which fascinates me. Lol
The legend of Shotgun Joe Horn.
I think it was worth mentioning tritium sights in this video. They have their own advantages in low light situations, at least good alternative to completely blind point/flash shooting.
Very interesting
That’s good thank you
As always, nice job. Would love to spend a day at the range with you.
Anchor Prepper. That sounded very gay.

The good old muzzle flash sight picture. Needs no batteries, no laser, no tritium sights.

Got to learn Low Light now!
We have alot of moisture here and electronics can fail for or damp or temp changes.
LOL !
If the Taurus judge had fill rifling and a longer barrel. The shot would scatter, but not sure how effective that would be.
I'm sure this has been asked before and might be a dumb question but what is it that you do with your colt all the time right before reholster? is it a chamber check or what?
Not dumb and hasn't been asked. I'm doing a press check to insure there's a round in the chamber.
Thanks paul food for thought
Something that can help is using a stainless steel gun, the silver top makes it where you can see sights if there is any sort of moonlight out at all.
Todd Webb. You're a dumbass. Stainless guns make you a target in low light!
Question for you Sir. When using the “Flash fire” technique. Was there any loss of night vision? Were you able to see the sights after the flash?
Good point!
I would add: One eye or two eyes open?
Reason for the eye/eyes question is related to your question, and becoming night blind due to the flash. It is why pirates wore an eye patch in the day. When they went below decks - where it was dark - they dropped the patch and could see better from that eye.
Not bad at all.
👍
Tried the flash-fire/see-sights method in a deliberately-darkened indoor range. Learned NOT to have 2 rear dots & 1 front dot all the same color! I was off, off & off (& fighting against my 'instinct'). Point-&-shoot can be more reliable. Proprioception - aka "knowin' where your body's at". Also, if the target’s pretty close, the flash may briefly light the TARGET.
With new technology on the way we should start seeing smartphone VR headsets with IR applications , Strange Day's stuff.
Full auto submachinegun loaded with tracers is also nice.. PPSh can illuminate whole livingroom filled with bandits :D
From Army training, in low light aim low because you will tend to shoot high
Shotgun pattern, I saw a movie where they used sawed off double barrels, they were sawed off so much that the shell stuck out the end of barrel.........so what kind of pattern would they get?

Flash light helps you get to the ceiling lights.
You can shine a flashlight in someone else's eyes and it will blind them, but help you. I've seen cops use the strobe feature, and they wave the light around while closing distance to the target, so it makes it harder for the target to approximate your range.
is that an improved ,modified ,or full choke on your defensive shotgun?
That gun is cylinder bore.

Paul Harrell
Paul is absolutely terrifying to look at with the night-vision on, due to his eyes glowing like one of the Visitors.
I can understand why but my gun club's range closes before dusk.
Hard to find someplace to practice flash firing.
1978garfield how about in your neighbor’s yard.
Use welding goggles in broad daylight with a spotter.
Natural Point Aim In The Dark Is Fine As Long As Your Target Is directly In Front Of You.
Where to safely practice these techniques is a big question for many.
Are tracer rounds illegal for civilian use? I've never even thought about it until watching this video, but I can't ever remember seeing any on the shelves.
Just saw your question.
Yes, tracers are legal in the U.S. there may be restrictions in a few places.
They can be expensive and sometimes hard to find.
They also are hard to see at typical self defense distances.
🇺🇸👍
that echo tho:)
Night vision makes you look kind of zombie like
If you're going to shoot at things you can't see and use your muzzle flash to correct then you better hope your first shot was aimed higher than your tallest child. Excellent technique for hitting your target but if your at home put the damn lights on!
i noticed you shot a three string when one of them didnt flash. sometimes i think i might just dump the mag. a common occurance im told.
The Sandman!!!! From that van damn movie
LOL I had to look that up.
Paul Harrell It's actually a compliment as he was a movie star and a badass. The name of the movie is Death Warrant, and you have a striking resemblance to the villain named "The Sandman." I enjoy all your videos by the way.
Hah, as the winter is coming, this video is becoming relevant again.
If you cant try it at home play a video game with low screen lighting and use your muzzle flash to see
Aww, man, I don't wanna shoot my tv...
Jk.
Hunting class taught me to SOS with three shots at night.
For a second, I thought you meant Shoot On Sight
Nobody, ... nobody covers this aspect of shooting.
Even though there's a high probability someone will be firing in conditions like theses in a "real world" shooting.
I thought bad guys only present themselves during the day when you can see, when you have your gun in hand, and when you are ready for an attack?
2:55 I hope that guy doesn’t have any pets 🙀
Anybody that believes you can't miss with a shotgun should try sporting clays. I miss all the time.
I find it appalling yet indicative of society that Detroit Threat Management Center has 1.33 million subscribers. I mean it’s hilarious but I’ve learned more useful info from Paul’s intro than anyone will paying for D.U.S.T.
Its not raining omg
I found the Sore Ass Judge to be a gimmick at worst, and a kinda cool toy at best, but it's just that, a gimmicky toy. It's still a weapon, but not anything I would choose from a selection of handguns, unless they were all really really bad handguns. An old
Galesi .25 ACP would be better than the Judge.
Shouldn't you raise that target up a foot. Unless you are planning on shooting a child or a small women.
Paul is 9 feet tall, all muggers are beneath him.
Flash Firing with a .45acp 1911 is completely unnecessary. The first shot will drop the bad guy like a sack of potatoes...lol.
