    Tactical Tip from 'the' Larry Vickers

    I surely would if we were in the same AO. All I can do from here is offer my honest opinion. Beyond pointshooting range, lasers excel. Besides all the immediate tactical advantages, Lasergrips are a great training aid and a quick confidence builder. Especially on snubbies, they help to...

    Tactical Tip from 'the' Larry Vickers

    Hey, I agree with pax; If the shoe doesn't fit, don't wear it. Some old dogs are beyond learning new tricks. So be it. Those trainers are, indeed, well known mt trainers. Personally, I support the cutting edge, 21st century trainers who have already set the new training standards and are...

    Tactical Tip from 'the' Larry Vickers

    As many of you know I am a consultant for Crimson Trace Lasergrips. I am sure some of you will quit reading right now expecting this to be a 'puff piece' talking about how great they are and not admitting any downside. Those of you in that category certainly don't know me very well. The...

    Simulating Stress for Practice

    Running, hunting, climbing, diving, skydiving, even FoF might barely help to manage some stress-fear response in a gunfight. But gunfights usually start and last only seconds with little time to prepare. And what about the older or non-physical or the handicapped or the physically un-fit? It...

    Simulating Stress for Practice

    In operation Junction City near Katum vietnam, I thought our combat jump was stress......till we were on the ground. Hey, live and learn. Anyway....that was then, this is now. This stress thing is not as complicated as most trainers would like people to believe. It's basic! In order to...

    Simulating Stress for Practice

    There is a predictable 'continuum' of sympathetic nervous system stress up to the total loss of control. Some stress can be mitigated by training and/or job repetition, especially if one is in control of the situation. When one is 'not' in control of the situation one's stress level can...

    How to choose and train in H2H combat via distance learning

    Just a personal observation on H2H (and shootouts): Most of our effective, usable education is learned up to the eighth grade....so is effective, usable H2H and self defense shooting learned in the basics. There are many ways to study and train to fight/shoot, but in the end most everyone...

    TOP choice in a DVD on shooting, etc.??

    Learning to shoot a gun from a DVD is like learning to drive from a DVD. She needs a competent coach. She must go to a range to understand shooting and sighting, feel the gun reaction and work through the fundamentals. She must learn gun safety and learn to hit the intended target. I'll...

    Weaver: Well Entrenched, but Perhaps Detrimental?

    There are a lot of ways to shoot or get shot. None are foolproof. BUT.......In a CQ "gunfight" odds are one will instinctively move, face the threat, assume a combat crouch, focus with both eyes on the threat and not the sights, extend arm/s, tightly grip the handgun and squeeze off...

    Weaver: Well Entrenched, but Perhaps Detrimental?

    Who said "all your training goes out the window the second the SHTF"? There is a 'continuum' of SNS stress up to the total loss of control. Some stress can be mitigated by training and/or job repetition, especially if one is in control of the situation. When one is 'not' in control of...
