Let me preface this by saying I try to go to the range and practice, as well as attend real life courses as much as I can and afford, so I'm not really looking for "just go to the range" types of answers. But I am wondering if training DVDs, such as the ones from Magpul, are really worth it as a training aid. Is there any value in watching something at home, and practicing it dry in your living room? Or are firearms skills something that you can really only get from live range practice and real instruction? For those of us who can't afford to attend Magpul courses and such, it seems like the skills taught on DVDs like their "Dynamic Handgun" or "Art of the Tactical Carbine" would be worth knowing. But since by simply watching and emulating, you don't have the chance to be watched and corrected by real instructors. Would that lack of correction and learning the skills while really shooting make it not worth it? Have any of you seen any training DVDs, Magpul in particular, and do you feel they have helped your weapon handling skills?
