- 3:41had a shooting that doesn't sound good
- 3:44get a training accident not a night
- 3:47probably be with one of the police
- 3:48officers if it did happen or corrections
- 3:51officers don't leave you out questions
- 3:56on any of that no everywhere do you
- 3:58signed a waiver see okay scroll to the
- 4:04first page of your picture book there
- 4:07some of you guys have probably seen
- 4:08these pictures or seen things like this
- 4:10and it's like yeah yeah whatever don't
- 4:11point guns at yourself we trained
- 4:14hundreds of students a year never have
- 4:16had an accident and literally at least
- 4:19every class you see somebody if you guys
- 4:21do training you'll see somebody do
- 4:23something that we deem unsafe slow down
- 4:26pay attention you know it's really like
- 4:28the most important thing those are real
- 4:30images of people that had self-inflicted
- 4:33gunshot wounds take a good look even
- 4:35something as simple as tripping falling
- 4:37you know while we're moving in the next
- 4:38couple days we're gonna talk about this
- 4:41fingers gonna come off the trigger as
- 4:42we're moving this is very basic stuff
- 4:44but you get a little spun up wanting to
- 4:46show off and look cool for everybody
- 4:48else camera might be on you and then
- 4:50you're like you want to look stupid and
- 4:52wheels fall off and then you're in the
- 4:54mud and got it alright only go out to
- 5:00the range we'll drive out there because
- 5:01if it starts pouring rain we'll want our
- 5:03vehicles to throw our [ __ ] in and stuff
- 5:05there's cover out there some range
- 5:06etiquette there's no down range out in
- 5:09the world right there is no firm at the
- 5:11mall at your church right here there is
- 5:13a berm this is our safe zone I don't
- 5:14want you guys I don't to hear guns
- 5:16racking back here once we're loaded up
- 5:18the rest of the two days were hot
- 5:20while we're here so I'm not having you
- 5:22guys load and unload every time we come
- 5:24on and off the line if you need to make
- 5:26some kind of manipulation by the time
- 5:28we're done here in a couple hours and we
- 5:30developed some trust go to a burm you
- 5:33see where his home is we're not pointing
- 5:35up over these tires because there's
- 5:36other people that live around here
- 5:38bullets travel so we're maintaining good
- 5:41awareness of that out here safe not safe
- 5:44right tracking is we're on the line if
- 5:49you drop something if your ipro falls
- 5:52off or you drop a magazine that you need
- 5:54don't bend over and pick that [ __ ] up
- 5:56while we're all on the line we've all
- 5:58trained right is everybody here taking
- 5:59some type of good firearm training beast
- 6:04so simple etiquette this is great for
- 6:07you to learn it's great for all of us to
- 6:09remember when we're on a firing line you
- 6:11guys are all responsible for each other
- 6:12if I doing a reload and shoot through
- 6:15you to my left I'm probably going to hit
- 6:17you too or somebody else so we need to
- 6:19be aware of each other not that we're
- 6:21correcting each other but every time we
- 6:23start a drill look left and right does
- 6:25all your friends have their eye on ear
- 6:27protection I could at some point you're
- 6:28gonna do this or you're gonna put your
- 6:30ears up and you're going to forget
- 6:30they're there right we've all seen that
- 6:32happen and then somebody's shooting and
- 6:35then what happens is you got a gun out
- 6:36so we're not shooting you start shooting
- 6:39oh you know now I'm manipulating my ear
- 6:43Pro with a gun in my hand so we look
- 6:46left and right we're making we're
- 6:47checking to make sure everybody else is
- 6:49good what else are we doing just what we
- 6:50just talked about we're building
- 6:52awareness we're forcing ourself to step
- 6:53out of just me and my gun so we have to
- 6:57pay attention cool so we're gonna make
- 7:00sure we have eyes and ears we're gonna
- 7:01look left and right if we drop something
- 7:03that's gonna stay there because if
- 7:05you're here and you want to pick that up
- 7:07and I'm holstering a nun holstering
- 7:09where's my gun while you're bent over
- 7:10picking that up so if something falls
- 7:12just leave it when we're done with a
- 7:15drill and we're all back in the holster
- 7:16we're gonna look left and right again to
- 7:18make sure somebody's not somewhere
- 7:19outside of your vision so look before
- 7:22you bend down and then we'll call line
- 7:24safe somebody steps downrange you'll
- 7:27hear me do this a hundred times I'll say
- 7:29downrange and you'll all say
- 7:32you're indicating that you're paying
- 7:34attention you see me even if you have
- 7:37your back
- 7:38call it out downrange everybody's on the
- 7:40same page crackin all right cool
- 7:44we're gonna run down the line one at a
- 7:46time you guys are gonna load your gun
- 7:47one mag and I just want to watch how you
- 7:49load how you manipulate the gun you can
- 7:52tell a lot by how people move and
- 7:54breathe and eyes and ears look left and
- 7:57right we'll start on the left side of
- 7:59the line tightest group you have zero
- 8:01time constraints zero time constraints

- 13:07[ __ ] my dad
- 13:09[Applause]
- 13:22everybody told you know time constraint
- 13:24you could have done way better than that
- 13:25but you sped up the wind yeah
- 13:43that's why you like that gunner then
- 13:46don't pay attention to him man look what
- 13:48you're doing get that gun back in the
- 13:49holster all right down range okay so I
- 13:55said no time constraints right like you
- 13:57guys literally could have so I guarantee
- 14:06you guys would have all shot better the
- 14:07construct of the drill was Titus group
- 14:09possible I usually do this just to see
- 14:10cuz usually whoever sets the first
- 14:12cadence everybody kind of follows it's
- 14:14men we're all humans like that where we
- 14:16just want to like he did it that fast
- 14:18I'm doing it that fast a couple reasons
- 14:23we do this one I want to assess where
- 14:24you're at safety wise you guys all did
- 14:26some good safety practices there a
- 14:28couple of you were reloading with your
- 14:29finger kind of in and around the trigger
- 14:31I'm grab my cert gun real quick as
- 14:33you're doing these manipulations again
- 14:37this mindfulness stuff what I do with it
- 14:41got it this mindfulness stuff we start
- 14:46to get lackadaisical and we have our
- 14:49finger here hovering there and that's
- 14:52just like you're you're inducing the
- 14:54chance for an accident to happen get the
- 14:56thing up here so you'll hear us say
- 14:58index position or locator finger to the
- 15:01locator or index one sings with me he'll
- 15:04walk around with a permanent marker and
- 15:05draw on you every time your fingers
- 15:07anywhere near the trigger this is basic
- 15:10101 [ __ ] but if you can't be high-speed
- 15:13if you can't keep your finger off the
- 15:14trigger you know basic training stuff so
- 15:17get that sucker up here next point
- 15:20though if the purpose was the tightest
- 15:24group possible what do you got to be
- 15:25thinking about to get the tightest group
- 15:27possible I don't really care about your
- 15:29draw stroke other than that it's safe I
- 15:31don't care about if you stepping off the
- 15:32line the whole point is the tightest
- 15:35group possible so you got to have a
- 15:36great sight picture a good grip good
- 15:38trigger press right so some of you were
- 15:41thinking more about let's hurry up and
- 15:42get this done because I'm uncomfortable
- 15:44right so slowed down if we can't get it
- 15:50done quickly if we move these targets
- 15:52back five yards and we did this again
- 15:54what happened to most of your groups
- 15:55maybe about twice as big right or more
- 15:57not to pick on anybody
- 16:00where was it here you your first shot
- 16:02second shot then you key hold like five
- 16:05rounds then you reload it and you came
- 16:07over here and you key to hold a few
- 16:09rounds you just kept picking a new
- 16:10target you're like okay there it went so
- 16:12that's an awareness thing I'm not
- 16:13picking on you at all because you have
- 16:15the ability to get the hits you just
- 16:17picked it your first shot you probably
- 16:20smack the trigger on the second shot and
- 16:21you're like alright I'll go down there
- 16:23now you know what I mean so like the
- 16:24whole premise of group shooting is pick
- 16:27one finite aiming point who a lot of
- 16:29times we do this and people are like
- 16:31well can't I put a mark on the paper
- 16:32sure you can but I mean you're big boys
- 16:35can you not aim at the same point I'm
- 16:38not mad at you let's throw up new paper
- 16:41we're gonna try it again this time after
- 16:42thinking about it then we're gonna like
- 16:43talk about grip and that kind of stuff I
- 16:45just want to see what you're doing and
- 16:46if you can start to hone in on this draw
- 16:49press out give me one magazine tightest
- 16:52group will give away another t-shirt
- 16:53here tightest group take your time take
- 16:56your time
- 16:57so go ahead they're not a competition
- 17:02who can shoot the fastest to be man
- 17:29[Music]
- 17:38range safe all right what do we got who
- 17:42got the best group see you again see you
- 17:44again huh you guys so now you guys see
- 17:47who you got to take out at lunch later
- 17:49somebody put a little something in this
- 17:51food to get his tummy hurting that's
- 17:53pretty good that's pretty good who's got
- 17:56the best group all you guys sorted out
- 18:02you were doing really good there mm-hmm
- 18:06got a couple out I think down on me what
- 18:13you think about that he's got optic all
- 18:21right dude so left hand right hand grip
- 18:27stays the same this is a very basic
- 18:29fundamental we're gonna talk about this
- 18:30this for a couple minutes and then we're
- 18:31gonna go back and talk about some other
- 18:33[ __ ] high and tight this has been known
- 18:35since the 1970s that this is about the
- 18:38best way to hold a pistol so there's
- 18:39nothing new this is not anybody on
- 18:41social media that's invented this you
- 18:44want a little little a space as possible
- 18:46for the gun to move right you guys are
- 18:48pop your ear Pro off if it'll let you
- 18:49hear better if we took the slide off
- 18:52Colonel Porter said Weaver Weaver we'll
- 18:55talk about that in a minute if we took
- 18:58the slide off put it in a vacuum and
- 19:01somehow made the round go off what would
- 19:03the slide do in that vacuum as the round
- 19:05went off it would just move straight
- 19:07back all things considered weight and
- 19:10things like that might cause it to shift
- 19:11some but the slide wouldn't just flip up
- 19:13like this right flips up like that
- 19:15because you got this handle making a
- 19:16fulcrum so we all know we want to get up
- 19:18as high it is possible we want no space
- 19:21here no space here left these same same
- 19:23a couple of you had a grip somewhat like
- 19:26this
- 19:27see that so friction requires contact
- 19:31without contact you can't have friction
- 19:34the best way to build the grip and we're
- 19:36talking about this right now is I want
- 19:37you guys getting good reps in the next
- 19:39two days so thumb is out of the way to
- 19:42clear as much of the grip panel as
- 19:43possible look what happens if my wrist
- 19:46is straight radius bone wrist straight
- 19:49cam forward straight line across the
- 19:52thumb and radius bone now I can put the
- 19:55strongest medius part of my palm against
- 19:58the grip panel simple as we're applying
- 20:02pressure
- 20:02forget 70 30 60 40 10 90 mash down on
- 20:06this thing when we start shooting 7 8 10
- 20:10shots in a row if we don't have a very
- 20:12firm grip guns gonna right up over the
- 20:17target or it's gonna move about in your
- 20:19hands again talking to you about coming
- 20:22back to the same place every time when
- 20:24we start doing things like reloading
- 20:26quickly under duress if we don't have
- 20:28that subconscious memory where the guns
- 20:29in our hand the right way and you press
- 20:31back out on target especially when we're
- 20:34starting to shoot fast things aren't
- 20:36going to be where you think they are if
- 20:38you're used to having the gonna put in a
- 20:39certain position because you take all
- 20:41the time in the world to get there it's
- 20:43not going to happen if you don't have
- 20:44that memory see the chunks of my hand
- 20:47they're wore off because that comes to
- 20:51the same spot look at my knuckle on this
- 20:54hand
- 20:54that's not tissue it's actually bone
- 20:56from slamming into the steel if you'll
- 20:59get an x-ray of like a woman's hip
- 21:00almost all the time they're there one
- 21:03hip will be much thicker because our
- 21:04body will strengthen up bone if we put
- 21:07load on it if you lift weights it builds
- 21:09your bones did you know that yes why am
- 21:13I telling you that because you got to
- 21:14get to the point where you're doing it
- 21:15the same way every time so when we shoot
- 21:17again in a few minutes we're gonna
- 21:18dissect that questions one thing that
- 21:21please all right so I like to think
- 21:24about the end state first right what's
- 21:26the end state of having a handgun and
- 21:28using it using it effectively what's the
- 21:30in state it's not a hypothetical
- 21:35no using the handgun to defend yourself
- 21:40the winning right let's show a couple
- 21:41head to the shooter but most you guys
- 21:43you're out here too for fighting pistol
- 21:46it's the name of the course right
- 21:47fighting pistol if I carry a handgun and
- 21:49it's inherent that I'm gonna be using it
- 21:51in a way that I am in a for lack of a
- 21:54better way of putting it what I like to
- 21:55use as a combat situation right whether
- 21:58it be one-on-one combat in the civilian
- 21:59world overseas police officer work
- 22:02whatever the case may be all right
- 22:04that's what you're using it for so think
- 22:05about that right now
- 22:06right in two days some of you can shoot
- 22:09you can pull the gun out and you can
- 22:10shoot you can hit a decent-size route
- 22:13right now but in the end state we want
- 22:16to be able to do it effectively under
- 22:18duress in a combat type situation right
- 22:21combat type situation so this is fine
- 22:24and dandy and as you begin build on your
- 22:26skills you're gonna do more marksmanship
- 22:28abstract drills right like 25 meter
- 22:30bull's you're pulling out slow and
- 22:32you're relaxing and standing straight up
- 22:33and you're thinking about how much
- 22:35percentage you're putting in this hand
- 22:37of that hand because you're trying to do
- 22:38it exactly on this little you know
- 22:40quarter size group at 25 meters or so
- 22:44alright so it comes into play yeah
- 22:47that'll make you better
- 22:48that'll make you better but in two days
- 22:49push yourself a little bit get good at
- 22:52combat shooting so that means I'm I'm
- 22:55ready to shoot when I fight somebody am
- 22:57I like this
- 22:58or am I like this right I'm ready to
- 23:02fight so keep that in mind as you're
- 23:04going that's where you want to get to so
- 23:06everything you're doing right now is
- 23:08building towards that you see what I
- 23:09mean so when you start shooting multiple
- 23:11shots and not just looking at one little
- 23:14bullet and saying aim small miss small
- 23:15thinking about this think about this
- 23:17like he said a combat way of shooting is
- 23:19the grip grip that damn thing get it out
- 23:21there and fight all right I want to
- 23:24fight so start thinking about that start
- 23:27applying yourself in that direction
- 23:28follow me
- 23:30it's not about dick measuring and seeing
- 23:32who can shoot the fastest or the
- 23:34smallest group even though we did a
- 23:35little contest right because if we
- 23:36measure dicks I will win
- 23:38no I've seen it as peeing out there it's
- 23:41not big at all so we know what the end
- 23:44state is right the in state especially
- 23:46you go
- 23:48drives home a little bit better with you
- 23:49guys that are working in a field that
- 23:51means you carry a handgun and the other
- 23:54guys hopefully you're carrying it for a
- 23:55reason
- 23:56that it's intended for alright we're not
- 23:59just out here shooting rabbits and [ __ ]
- 24:01alright there's other ways to do that so
- 24:03think about that the in-state fighting
- 24:05with your pistol his point brings us to
- 24:08what we're gonna talk about next in our
- 24:09lesson plan why are we here everybody
- 24:12comes for a different reason I
- 24:13personally do this because I had a
- 24:16family friend murdered when I was a kid
- 24:18she was raped and murdered stabbed about
- 24:2070 times in her home what a gun on her
- 24:23hip of fix that no but it's a solution
- 24:26for a lot of times that something like
- 24:28that happens it's a it provides options
- 24:30so why are we here as he just said some
- 24:34of you are police officers we all carry
- 24:36guns for some purpose so that's the end
- 24:39goal grab your syllabus get your mags
- 24:43and we'll load them as we're talking I'd
- 24:45like to talk about some stuff other than
- 24:47just the mechanics of the pistol because
- 24:48as I said earlier that's only there's a
- 24:51lot of people that shoot folks and they
- 24:52do a good job of it and then they end up
- 24:53in jail or they end up losing their home
- 24:56because of civil liability so what's the
- 24:59legal and justified use of force even if
- 25:01you're a police officer you have a
- 25:03different SOP than plain old citizen
- 25:07what's the legal and justified use of
- 25:10force and when in your home state that
- 25:12we're all from different states here
- 25:13there's like four or five states present
- 25:15one thing that that holds true across
- 25:17every state is you have to be able to
- 25:19explain and articulate that you were in
- 25:22danger of great bodily harm right
- 25:24that doesn't change if you're in
- 25:26Maryland New York California Michigan
- 25:28Illinois that's the same you have to be
- 25:31able to articulate that any of you have
- 25:34a problem explaining that you understand
- 25:36that regardless of where you live what
- 25:39the difference is between perception and
- 25:40reality can be a prison sentence or
- 25:42losing your job if you're a copper Mark
- 25:46of Cain as they call it Oh mr. Smith
- 25:49down the street he's the psycho that got
- 25:50mad and shot that guy you know now you
- 25:52got to live with that your family's got
- 25:54to live with that what gives you the
- 25:56right to apply Dedrick deadly force and
- 25:58when is it justified
- 26:00you must be able to articulate it and
- 26:02you must be able to articulate it in a
- 26:05way that you can convince a jury that's
- 26:07the other thing all your cop buddies or
- 26:09your homeboys from the range might be
- 26:10like yeah man good shoot good shoot
- 26:12but if Suzy homemaker and the folks on
- 26:16the jury don't agree you might be going
- 26:19to jail or at the very least having a
- 26:21large civil liability against you we
- 26:23apply force commiserate with the force
- 26:25applied to stop the attack once it stops
- 26:27we stop so we're not judge and jury
- 26:29we're not the Punisher this made me
- 26:31chase him over a fence you know that's
- 26:34not how it works
- 26:35he just hurt my kid if you apply force
- 26:39and the person stops and they are now
- 26:41complying with you you can't smoke them
- 26:43on the ground right even if they hurt
- 26:47your loved one and you want to do that
- 26:49you can't do that we're not judging jury
- 26:51you guys all know what the reasonable
- 26:53man doctrine is yes No so common law
- 26:57here in the United States we base all of
- 26:59our court proceedings on the reasonable
- 27:01man doctrine you and a jury any of you
- 27:03ever been on jury duty anybody never
- 27:05that means you're all either bad people
- 27:07or you got good excuses one or the other
- 27:10no witnesses
- 27:12reasonable man doctrine so as you sit
- 27:14down in front of a jury box a judge is
- 27:16going to stand up and he's going to tell
- 27:18you ladies an gentlemen the jury you're
- 27:19gonna hear case today or this week
- 27:21whatever you need to look at the facts
- 27:25of the case and weigh in on whether or
- 27:26not the actions of the defendant were
- 27:28that of a reasonable and prudent person
- 27:30why because if you're not a reasonable
- 27:33and prudent person your your actions
- 27:35would not be something that we are gonna
- 27:36base as something justified simple
- 27:39enough right he pointed a stick at me
- 27:41and I shot him why was security was
- 27:42gonna poke me in the eye he was 20 feet
- 27:44away yeah but he pointed a stick at me
- 27:46and he looked angry it might have been
- 27:48justified to you but you convince a jury
- 27:50of that and it's you know you're
- 27:52probably in some fantasy land a very
- 27:54simple premise the reason that we talk
- 27:56about this reasonable man doctrine is
- 27:57when we start talking about violence
- 27:59many people believe that a criminal will
- 28:01cease criminal activity because if
- 28:04somebody pointed a gun at you you'd stop
- 28:07if somebody told you they were gonna
- 28:08shoot you you'd stop because you're
- 28:10reasonable you're prudent somebody
- 28:12that's already an active
- 28:13Elleni is not a reasonable and prudent
- 28:16person so why would you assume that they
- 28:18will base their actions as a reasonable
- 28:22imprisonment person would you tracking
- 28:26that said as we start looking at by at
- 28:30this the next thing that we got to bring
- 28:31up is that you are judged by what you
- 28:33knew at the time of the incident
- 28:34Ziza green beret former Green Beret
- 28:37brown belt in jujitsu it would be a
- 28:41formidable opponent right now if you saw
- 28:44him dressed in like a tuxedo out at the
- 28:46bar with his wife after a wedding
- 28:48besides that he's a pretty thick sexy
- 28:51man you wouldn't know any of that right
- 28:54so he and I get into a scuffle and I
- 28:57just lose my temper and smoke him I put
- 28:5910 rounds in his face all I knew is that
- 29:02he was a kind of a biggish guy in the
- 29:04bar I'm coughed I'm sitting in the
- 29:08holding cell and I hear from somebody
- 29:10man you killed Z dude that guy was a
- 29:12green beret and a brown belt score I'm
- 29:16gonna tell my my my attorney that the
- 29:19dude was a green beret and a brown belt
- 29:20didn't know that at the time and any
- 29:22good prosecutors gonna say well when did
- 29:24you find out that this guy was a green
- 29:26beret and a Bravo because I could say
- 29:27look man this guy was Colonel gotta mean
- 29:28I knew that he was a crazy vet a bunch
- 29:30of combat experience and he trains every
- 29:32day I didn't know that doesn't work you
- 29:34follow which is why you see a police
- 29:37officer shooting a kid with a plastic
- 29:39ak-47 but the kid happens to be as big
- 29:41as me and doesn't comply he based his
- 29:45actions on what he knew at the time
- 29:46somebody calls 911 this just happened
- 29:48right you guys hear about this woman
- 29:49with a kid had the plastic aka it was a
- 29:51like an airsoft but it looked totally
- 29:53unreal there's a guy with an ak-47 cop
- 29:56shows up to a call and dim light there's
- 29:59a six-foot --is-- 190 pound human being
- 30:02with an ak-47 put it down kid points it
- 30:06at him cop smoked him he is judged by
- 30:10what he knew at the time now he gets off
- 30:12and the jury says what the this guy's
- 30:14killed a sixteen-year-old based on what
- 30:17he knew at the time who would have done
- 30:19anything different and what was the
- 30:20advantage that police officers have a
- 30:21lot of times they know what that person
- 30:25is capable of doing it based off of
- 30:27Rickard or they know that he's a
- 30:28high-risk warrant or something like that
- 30:30going into the situation sure so that
- 30:32makes it more dangerous to me I've know
- 30:33he's capable of violence he's bent he's
- 30:35done it before and now he pulls out
- 30:37something plastic
- 30:38I'm already amped up because I know this
- 30:40guy's capable of doing that now
- 30:41conversely you can't see that in the
- 30:43video all the time this is why we have
- 30:46to this awareness thing we're talking
- 30:47about that shooting that happened at was
- 30:49at Walmart Target kid had the BB gun
- 30:52some idiotic person called 9-1-1 and
- 30:55said there's a guy with a gun pointing
- 30:56it at people it was a BB gun cop came in
- 30:59saw the dude and just smoked him he
- 31:01thought it was active an active shooter
- 31:03scenario it was literally somebody in
- 31:05the store think looking to see if they
- 31:08wanted to buy it guy came around the
- 31:10corner and wasted the kid so now all of
- 31:14a sudden perhaps somebody's tactic
- 31:16should have been a little different you
- 31:18know show me your hands put it down no
- 31:20he came in there terrible and it there
- 31:25was no crime involved there was no
- 31:27pointing guns at anybody it was just
- 31:29somebody not having the tools to deal
- 31:32with the situation legal and justified
- 31:34use of force this is so super important
- 31:37in in my life I've been involved in some
- 31:40violence like fistfights and things like
- 31:42that I have never had an instance where
- 31:43I had to shoot somebody or really even
- 31:48get in a fistfight that I couldn't look
- 31:50back and say man I really could have
- 31:51avoided that I could have laughed could
- 31:54have bought him a beer and said no big
- 31:56deal you know whatever you understand
- 31:59what I'm saying there's besides true
- 32:01criminal violence predation from
- 32:03scumbags most of us don't have a lot of
- 32:06good reasons in our daily life to even
- 32:08escalate or be around something that
- 32:10escalates to that point would you agree
- 32:12I mean ever any of you ever been in a
- 32:15fistfight like at a bar or highschool
- 32:16party or something you think back that
- 32:19that chain of events
- 32:20you know those glasses are mine you know
- 32:26like it's always starts with something
- 32:28stupid and then our machismo man no no
- 32:34no friends ugly what you say you know
- 32:39follow so we need to start thinking
- 32:42about how we're acting his point a
- 32:43moment ago what's the end result for me
- 32:46so every time I'm training studying
- 32:49learning growing down this Marshall path
- 32:52of becoming a better protector my end
- 32:56goal is coming home at night I want to
- 32:58meet my grandkids one day I want my wife
- 33:00not to have to say uh my husband died in
- 33:02some street violence or something now
- 33:05that's a tough question because do I
- 33:08want to trade my life for yours
- 33:10they're like Drew's a good friend of
- 33:12mine do I want to keep Drew alive yet
- 33:16leave my kids fatherless in some violent
- 33:18encounter or somebody I don't know in
- 33:21public do I want to intervene in
- 33:22violence because I know I have the
- 33:24ability to but risk myself to leave my
- 33:28children fatherless well people always
- 33:30say well yeah I ain't gonna be a coward
- 33:31ain't gonna let my kids think I'm a
- 33:33coward well if it's cowardly to now have
- 33:36my children live in poverty because
- 33:37their father can't is gone you track in
- 33:40with what I'm saying here so these are
- 33:41pretty heady topics you know if you have
- 33:44a duty as some of you cops do if you
- 33:46have a sworn oath to protect people you
- 33:48can't run away and I'm not talking about
- 33:50cowardice talking about making the
- 33:52decision to is what I'm about to do or
- 33:56not do going to fulfill my my mission
- 34:00which is to go home at night to my
- 34:01family you say something gonna say an
- 34:04equation that I use it I like to tell
- 34:06you guys is I overeat equals control all
- 34:10right
- 34:10intelligence over emotion equals control
- 34:13intelligence meaning the logic what's
- 34:16really going on here taking into account
- 34:17the situation and its context emotion
- 34:21you can say hey well you think emotion
- 34:23you think anger and are sad I'm happy
- 34:26right most of us the easy route is anger
- 34:28for everyone especially men we tend to
- 34:30go angry before we go sad is just cause
- 34:33it's easier for us we're not emotionally
- 34:34inclined we're more logically inclined
- 34:36well an emotion is also dick-measuring
- 34:41or your ego if you already have some
- 34:43kind of lack of self-esteem or concerns
- 34:48about your own manliness or you had that
- 34:52feeling
- 34:52a lot of guys had to carry guns and you
- 34:54see them on the internet what not hey
- 34:55I'll kill that it's liked in their mind
- 34:58all they're thinking about is having the
- 34:59guns I can't wait till I get a chance to
- 35:00kill they want to prove themselves in a
- 35:03situation that is chaotic our combat in
- 35:06nature right because it trying to tell
- 35:09themselves make themselves believe that
- 35:11they are that they are man they are
- 35:13confident they are capable of doing this
- 35:15if that's on your mind all the time what
- 35:17do you think is going to happen when you
- 35:18get into a moment you think emotion is
- 35:20going to go over intelligence or vice
- 35:22versa alright if that's on your mind all
- 35:25the time if that's what you're
- 35:26visualizing and thinking of your mind is
- 35:28preparing for that emotional response
- 35:29kill this Oh Walmart with a BB gun I've
- 35:33been waiting to kill have a reason to do
- 35:35it I can tell my buddies I can build
- 35:36myself up instead of taking all the
- 35:39situation into account and saying what's
- 35:41going on here can I have my gun ready
- 35:43and if I really thought I was scared
- 35:45could I have my gun ready and take into
- 35:46account what is actually going on use my
- 35:48intelligence over my emotion so if
- 35:50you're walking around just salivating at
- 35:53proving yourself as a man with your gun
- 35:56fighting someone for no particular
- 35:58reason you're going to find yourself in
- 36:00trouble you're gonna start fight you're
- 36:02gonna escalate when given the
- 36:05opportunity you will so you have to work
- 36:07that mindset ahead of time all this
- 36:09pistol work we're doing it's gonna get
- 36:12you in trouble if you don't have the
- 36:13right mindset if you don't have
- 36:15intelligence over emotion which equals
- 36:17to control agreed which why I told you a
- 36:22moment ago when we first got up here why
- 36:25are we here what are we what are we
- 36:27doing what do you want out of it you you
- 36:30are the exact shooter and human being
- 36:33you trained yourself to be you guys know
- 36:35who Tolstoy was yeah no no William James
- 36:40all of these famous psychologists all
- 36:42realized Jesus said it we are the sum
- 36:45total of our thoughts so if you're
- 36:47thinking about what he's talking about
- 36:48that is what will manifest in your life
- 36:51what's in you will come out there's no
- 36:53way around it actually which is the same
- 36:55as I always shoot low left and that's
- 36:59where it ends well why not only did you
- 37:02shoot low left because of X Y Z you now
- 37:04reinforce that your subconscious is like
- 37:07yeah man you just told me this is what
- 37:09we do and then you close the case so
- 37:12we've got to get way deeper I think
- 37:14anybody that studies any martial skill
- 37:17fighting with your hands or weapons
- 37:19eventually if you do it long enough with
- 37:22an open mind everybody gets to the point
- 37:24where you begin to look way beyond the
- 37:25skill of the hitting the fighting the
- 37:28stabbing the shooting because you must
- 37:30otherwise all it is is mechanical in
- 37:33nature even athletes great sports
- 37:35athletes if you really start to delve in
- 37:37like a Michael Jordan or somebody like
- 37:39that they go way beyond the the dunk
- 37:42you know you track in what I'm saying it
- 37:44becomes a spiritual journey not to take
- 37:47anything away from your individual
- 37:48religious beliefs but that's what it
- 37:50becomes you in order to get better you
- 37:52got to find yourself and that's kind of
- 37:55what our program is really based on we
- 37:57use the school the the tools to help us
- 38:00become more aware of ourself as men
- 38:01that's what it is
- 38:03otherwise we're a bunch of [ __ ]
- 38:04running around with guns even if you're
- 38:06a copper because I got plenty of
- 38:07[ __ ] cops with guns that shouldn't
- 38:09be doing it and one way that guys that
- 38:11get on the range in front of a bunch of
- 38:13other guys and show their skills just
- 38:16like you did right they're put in a
- 38:18situation is that not a way of
- 38:19developing or I guess desensitizing your
- 38:23ego a little bit you're already
- 38:25practicing that just at a certain level
- 38:28right we're already practicing getting
- 38:29on the spot and saying all this I'm just
- 38:32trying to hit and do this and perform I
- 38:34don't want to think about he's looking
- 38:35at me or he shot real fast down there
- 38:37and I had the expectations on me because
- 38:39of my soldier background or whatever
- 38:41that I need to shoot faster or better
- 38:42than everybody all that's already there
- 38:43but when you face it out here on the
- 38:45line and you do this stuff that you're
- 38:47doing
- 38:47you're already conditioning yourself for
- 38:51a better response in a chaotic or combat
- 38:55type situation right because you're
- 38:57putting yourself on the spot and you're
- 38:58facing your fear a little bit and you're
- 39:00handling handling it intelligently and
- 39:03not letting your emotion overcome your
- 39:04emotion will overcome like later on
- 39:06we're going to test hopefully we push
- 39:07all you guys by the end of this to get a
- 39:11little bit that emotion a little bit of
- 39:12fear of failure a little bit of a bit of
- 39:14a concern about what others are thinking
- 39:16we're all gonna do that make and I will
- 39:17do that
- 39:18all right we all do it
- 39:20we continue to push ourselves to
- 39:22condition ourselves to perform and fight
- 39:25those emotional notions that we have
- 39:27that is normal for human beings all
- 39:29right you guys tracking what we're
- 39:31talking about you know that's you want
- 39:34to be better
- 39:34you can't just it's it and I don't mean
- 39:37better with the gun the better person
- 39:39isn't that why we're doing this I want
- 39:41to live a full life I want to die one
- 39:43day with honor have my grandkids not for
- 39:46egotistical reasons say grandpa was the
- 39:49most wonderful person ever not that but
- 39:53to be laid to rest and know that you
- 39:54lived a life that was worthwhile where
- 39:56it wasn't just about this stupid [ __ ]
- 39:58how much money do you get how many girls
- 40:00have you laid all that crap because we
- 40:02at the end of the day that is just all
- 40:04nonsensical egotistical crap all of our
- 40:07hair is gonna turn gray mine before
- 40:08yours probably and then what do you have
- 40:13Colonel Cooper on his uh you guys know
- 40:16Jeff Cooper was we'll talk about him
- 40:18later on the mantle of his fireplace he
- 40:21had a quote I forget which which Roman
- 40:25it was basically the quote said like as
- 40:29my body fails my mind and heart must
- 40:32grow stronger because what else do you
- 40:34have so if you don't do that now do we
- 40:37wait until we're old men do you guys
- 40:38know that predominantly if you look at
- 40:40suicide rates you know who kills
- 40:42themselves more than anybody in the u.s.
- 40:46men that have jobs that are between like
- 40:4940 and 60 that even went to college what
- 40:52the you know you it's not homeless drug
- 40:54addicts it's not people in the inner
- 40:56city or you know folks without jobs no
- 41:00it's dudes that like never fulfilled
- 41:02themselves and then they reach a point
- 41:04in their like know how what what the
- 41:07what do I got like I did all these
- 41:09things I built the family got a house
- 41:11had a good jobs
- 41:12he had the 401k you're sitting alone in
- 41:15your garage at night with tears
- 41:17streaming down listening to 80s rock
- 41:18drinking IPAs just kidding just kidding
- 41:26yeah so you lose what defines you at one
- 41:28point in time so the kernel Cooper's
- 41:29point evolved yeah I'm not gonna be
- 41:33physically straight
- 41:34all your life you're not gonna be as
- 41:36relevant in some fields that you were
- 41:39all your life initially that goes away
- 41:42you have to adjust evolve adapt and find
- 41:46a way to be relevant to yourself and to
- 41:49your loved ones closest to you you know
- 41:52I mean evolving I like it might not
- 41:55evolve as sexy as Nick but we have our
- 41:59cross to bear it's hard to come back you
- 42:04guys know every day there's 43 murders
- 42:06in the u.s. reported 43 247 rapes
- 42:11reported they figure it's probably at
- 42:13least twice at any of you coppers ever
- 42:15go run any investigations on rape you'll
- 42:18know a lot of them predominantly our
- 42:19family related stuff uncle creep oh you
- 42:23know grandpa doing something sick a lot
- 42:24of that shit's never reported 896
- 42:27robberies every day this is just in the
- 42:29u.s. 3281 violent crimes
- 42:32violent meaning there was some level of
- 42:33force applied or threat of force applied
- 42:36here's what's interesting about all this
- 42:38firearms are used in 71 and a half
- 42:40percent of all those murders and forty
- 42:43point eight percent of the robberies
- 42:44what's that tell you bad guys had guns
- 42:47and that they're using them there
- 42:50they're out there in the street with
- 42:52them on them committing this violence as
- 42:56a practitioner that's what I like to
- 42:58call us I don't like students I mean
- 43:00students is fine but we are practicing a
- 43:01craft and art away every decision that
- 43:05we make in gear in what we're
- 43:08implementing on the training range it
- 43:12should all solve a problem so as you buy
- 43:15a new widget new dad thing to bolt on
- 43:18your gun what problem is this solving if
- 43:21you can't answer that like it helps me
- 43:23shoot further away or it helps me see
- 43:26faster or I can access the gun quicker
- 43:29don't buy the thing look and makes you
- 43:31look cooler yeah if it makes you look
- 43:32cool if you really can't articulate that
- 43:35I was interested to see how you were
- 43:37gonna shoot because there's always one
- 43:39dude that's got some like $3,000 Glock
- 43:42build and then he's what are you looking
- 43:44at is my fly down he's there's a slight
- 43:46bulge
- 43:47you see I got the wrong class but a
- 43:56doodle you shot good but a doodle have
- 43:57all this gear you know big leg holster
- 44:00and [ __ ] and he'll come up to the line
- 44:01and and then he'll be like you guys
- 44:09don't know what the hell he's doing with
- 44:10the gun and then he shoots all over a
- 44:12target and you're like no we've seen
- 44:13these guys on a range like laptop you
- 44:16know he went and spent all his dough
- 44:17trying to buy skill can't do it can't do
- 44:20it
- 44:20so what's the problem solve why do I
- 44:24tell you about all this crime [ __ ]
- 44:25because it's it's real as II said a
- 44:29minute ago we're not training to be
- 44:31really good at shooting holes in paper
- 44:32were straining to survive violence and
- 44:34win sometimes winnings walking away
- 44:36sometimes winnings getting your gun out
- 44:38and shooting somebody in the eyeball but
- 44:40we must be building to that any of you
- 44:44guys know who Greg a LeFort is from Ohio
- 44:45if you don't it's he's in your handout
- 44:48look him up follow him on Facebook he's
- 44:50a SWAT cop in Ohio super intelligent
- 44:54he's visited like 150 countries
- 44:56I could be exaggerating that but it's a
- 44:57lot it's like he's been all over the
- 44:59world numerous times and he's compiles a
- 45:02lot of data it takes him a lot of time
- 45:04to do it but basically his findings show
- 45:09that 40% of criminal violence attack
- 45:12lies there's more than one attacker 40%
- 45:15of the time that's a lot
- 45:16I could probably stand up against him
- 45:19and last for a few any one of you jumps
- 45:22in with him
- 45:24I don't care who you are would you agree
- 45:26you know he could fight me one of you
- 45:29comes up behind him with pick up a rock
- 45:32done game point match so now we've that
- 45:36awareness starts coming into play things
- 45:38like not putting ourselves in spaces in
- 45:40places where you know what you do man
- 45:42you work for Cook County so he's in like
- 45:45the scuzziest jail in America Cook
- 45:48County Correctional Center you guys did
- 45:52any of you just see the video from Cook
- 45:54County you want to talk about it the one
- 45:58where you guys couldn't get that dude
- 45:59down Oh
- 46:01although that was a little history yeah
- 46:03sing that see I wasn't there this guy
- 46:10basically like whoop 10 dudes asses
- 46:12after being pepper sprayed with big-boy
- 46:16pepper spray it wasn't like the [ __ ] you
- 46:17buy at Walmart so there's a reason that
- 46:19I wanted to tell that story so their
- 46:22training was not sufficient to deal with
- 46:24an issue and really the issue wasn't
- 46:25even that big a deal the guy had no
- 46:27weapons right they I mean you guys all
- 46:29could have just backed up and waited
- 46:32until your tech team came down there
- 46:33right but instead they tried to use
- 46:35improper tools to deal with it we're not
- 46:37picking on your coworkers
- 46:39that's one guy that's deciding he
- 46:43doesn't want to lay down plenty of
- 46:44people like that in the world where they
- 46:47have no problem getting may stays shot
- 46:50whatever which brings us to low capacity
- 46:53versus high capacity simple mechanical
- 46:56study here we know and we're going to
- 46:58talk about this more tomorrow multiple
- 47:01attackers people don't want to stop die
- 47:03first then quit looking at your shirt if
- 47:06you get shot are you automatically done
- 47:08so if you're carrying one of you get
- 47:11you've got the single stack so I've got
- 47:14a five-shot revolver I carry sometimes
- 47:17but even make it count any of you guys
- 47:20never shoot a deer no none of you guys
- 47:23are hunters gotta track them after that
- 47:25don't you I've shot a deer through the
- 47:28heart and lungs and they've run 200
- 47:30yards up a hillside that's a lot of
- 47:32distance covered if animal that size can
- 47:35can move a couple hundred yards with its
- 47:38heart and lungs destroyed can somebody
- 47:40not continue to pull the trigger I'm
- 47:42gonna tell you the story later of my
- 47:44friends year at rest and that was shot
- 47:45seven times a couple of them threw his
- 47:47face and he's alive and killed his
- 47:51attacker we'll talk about that later had
- 47:53he had a low capacity gun he'd be dead
- 47:55because it took all 14 rounds out of his
- 47:5840 Cal same gun you have on you for him
- 48:00to stop the guy so as you're choosing
- 48:03tools I just said is what you're putting
- 48:05on you something that's preparing you to
- 48:07win a fight you know to honestly think
- 48:09about that we all understand how the
- 48:10handgun works right it's got to
- 48:12reciprocate in order for the G jacked
- 48:14and
- 48:15new rounds and such mechanically
- 48:18speaking the better a platform that you
- 48:21can create for this thing to lock down
- 48:23on it the more efficient and reliable it
- 48:26will be any of you ever get popped in
- 48:28the face with brass because the guns
- 48:30coming back so in order for me to shoot
- 48:33in this gun come all the way to here all
- 48:36the energy that should be sent spent
- 48:40rather empty my point it this way so as
- 48:48this gun goes off ideally we want energy
- 48:50only to cycle the slide right if the
- 48:55guns going like this now energy is
- 48:58sending the gun upwards it's also moving
- 49:01our body some you ever just feel the
- 49:04slightest bit of weight coming back
- 49:05that's all dissipated from that little
- 49:08cartridge that's a lot of energy when
- 49:10you think about it so the better we can
- 49:12clamp down on this the less we will have
- 49:16reliability issues stovepipes things
- 49:19like that which oftentimes most
- 49:21malfunctions if you've got a good clean
- 49:23gun in quality ammo are induced because
- 49:26you've got some type of lazy grip or
- 49:28funky grip how many of you have ever
- 49:31induced this to happen while shooting
- 49:33because you were trying to get up so
- 49:34high and tight that you activated the
- 49:35slide stop or conversely you held the
- 49:39slide stop down and ran the magazine
- 49:40empty had to do a tap rack and realize
- 49:43that the gun was empty you know I'm
- 49:44talking about I'm bringing this up
- 49:46because we got to be so mindful of what
- 49:49we're doing the next couple days some of
- 49:51it might feel weird slow down check your
- 49:53grip make sure you're not activating
- 49:56levers and parts that shouldn't be
- 49:58because if you're gonna do it here on
- 50:00the range your as during or at a time of
- 50:05adrenaline a dump like informal in
- 50:07sentence you can't be thinking about
- 50:09those things
- 50:10zebra brought it up on the line these
- 50:13are instruments of death death
- 50:15destruction right we already know about
- 50:17accidents but now we're fighting with
- 50:20this you know he's got that thing in a
- 50:23position where he can fight with it
- 50:24versus you know the gun
- 50:28my pistol you see guys oftentimes you
- 50:33know I'm shooting the gun goes empty
- 50:35amount even something as simple as this
- 50:38I'm gonna load from here oftentimes it's
- 50:40there's funny reasons I watch people all
- 50:43the time and I personally think it's
- 50:45coming down here cuz I don't want
- 50:46anybody to like see what I'm up to and
- 50:48like critique me if I'm up here oh he's
- 50:51being weird he thinks he's a Navy SEAL
- 50:53he's covering his face you know guys
- 50:54look at each other I don't care what any
- 50:57of you are doing other than I mean if
- 50:59I'm on the line I don't I'm paying
- 51:01attention only to make sure everybody's
- 51:02being safe if I was out on the line with
- 51:04you do it as if you're doing it I'm
- 51:07shooting I've got that good firm grip
- 51:12got me my grip is not changing I'm not
- 51:15I'm not getting the gun in a position
- 51:17where I can drop it or have it taken
- 51:18away from me trained with that intensity
- 51:23put some purpose behind it be deliberate
- 51:26with those action yeah I was gonna say
- 51:28much like your cohorts the Jailhouse
- 51:32right why were they not getting done
- 51:35what they wanted to get done because
- 51:37they probably never deliberately trained
- 51:39for that they were they didn't know what
- 51:40to do in that situation so they're kind
- 51:41of is this right is it's not right to
- 51:43question themself if you don't know
- 51:45exactly what you're trying to do and
- 51:47deliver and you're not deliberate about
- 51:48it you don't have the composure right so
- 51:50if you don't know what you're doing out
- 51:51here you can ask say hey alright when
- 51:52you grab this do you hold your mag like
- 51:54this like well one way to do it is just
- 51:55line it up you know you can look here
- 51:57and get it in and then back on target
- 51:59whatever the case may be good it's all
- 52:00deliberate because I know exactly what
- 52:01the gun needs to do it how I need to
- 52:03hold it right if you don't know that now
- 52:04you start working that in your head
- 52:05hopefully we'll figure that out and then
- 52:07as you get better at it
- 52:09be more deliberate about tracks I know
- 52:10what I'm doing alright boom I'm on I'm
- 52:13ready to shoot I'm back here whatever
- 52:15the case may be the more you know the
- 52:16more you train the more composure be the
- 52:18more deliberate tractions will be which
- 52:19plays into what you were saying earlier
- 52:21is like how you handle your gun even in
- 52:24an administrative way we'll start
- 52:27playing into how you actually handle it
- 52:28when it's time to use it
- 52:30you follow me even administrative leave
- 52:33it at home when I get a gun in Mianus
- 52:34which goes off I got a gun I mean I can
- 52:36relax with it but I know what it's
- 52:37intended for right just like a knife
- 52:39when I hold a knife think about a knife
- 52:41you're always aware
- 52:42of this sharp blade right you don't grab
- 52:44it just in your way and like flinging
- 52:46around in the people's or whatever they
- 52:48do they're there they're dumb alright so
- 52:50you're not like that I mean I'm in the
- 52:52kitchen if there's multiple people in
- 52:53the kitchen I got a big knife I'm
- 52:55concerned about me right turning around
- 52:57like this right alright same thing with
- 52:59a gun right it's in my hand I realized
- 53:01it's in my hand I know what it's for I
- 53:02know what it's capable of
- 53:03I'm delivered about my actions and then
- 53:06you become more delivered as you do
- 53:07these combat skills or fighting skills
- 53:10with the gun start learning it be more
- 53:12deliberate practice how you're gonna
- 53:14want to use it I want to add to this you
- 53:17guys will keep hearing the same thing
- 53:18over and over again are you guys now
- 53:20getting the thought process about this
- 53:23talking to yourself we all have a voice
- 53:24in our head all day long he's been there
- 53:26since the day you learn to speak when
- 53:28you started saying words that little
- 53:30dude in your head started saying words
- 53:31right whatever
- 53:32I got a P I'm hungry where's mom what's
- 53:36on TV
- 53:37I'm so stupid God that girl saw they're
- 53:40looking at me yeah but that little guy
- 53:42talks they some people say it's
- 53:44interesting how psychologists have come
- 53:46up with this 70 thousand to a hundred
- 53:49and fifty thousand sentences that little
- 53:52dude says a day depending my brain is
- 53:54always and so I've tried it like one of
- 53:56my things as I try to quiet him you know
- 53:58chill out dude
- 54:00you don't gotta always be trying to
- 54:01crunch numbers and think about [ __ ] two
- 54:05Z's point not just from a safety
- 54:08standpoint we got to start telling
- 54:10ourselves I have a whole cadence when I
- 54:13get out of bed in the morning of things
- 54:14I tell myself all kinds of things from
- 54:17I'm not talking about like I'm hungry
- 54:19things like that things like today's
- 54:21gonna be a kick-ass day I feel congrat
- 54:23I'm so happy to be alive I love to be in
- 54:25Tennessee the air smells good here you
- 54:28know that changes your attitude versus I
- 54:29slept in a cot with Drew snoring all
- 54:32night
- 54:32raging morning wood there was a joke the
- 54:37last part although I did have a little
- 54:38morning wood this morning but we start
- 54:40to change the way we're thinking we
- 54:42start to change our reality when we
- 54:44start changing that voice I am good with
- 54:47this pistol this is the way I grip this
- 54:49pistol hi tight slacks coming out of the
- 54:53trigger I have a good sight picture boo
- 54:56boom my fingers on the locator wherever
- 55:00I'm doing I start to talk through that
- 55:02we're gonna start talking later today
- 55:04we're gonna see you guys will be saying
- 55:05things out loud let's go change the
- 55:09paper point your hands out like that
- 55:12right now guys let's point him right at
- 55:13me
- 55:13point them right at me just point your
- 55:16thumbs at me now now drop your hands
- 55:18point your finger right at my face did
- 55:20you require any aiming or sighting or
- 55:23laser to do that and I could draw this
- 55:26gun check that out look what a laser is
- 55:29right in this face look at that right in
- 55:32his neck neck face face no sighting just
- 55:40pointing just point my thumbs right at
- 55:43you so we're building upon this got my
- 55:47master grip the process of shooting the
- 55:50gun or deploying it for what we're doing
- 55:52come on up so you can see a little bit
- 55:54the process of deploying it is not it
- 55:58doesn't start here it starts when I
- 56:01decide to get the gun out right so I've
- 56:03cleared the garment or taken my hood off
- 56:05defeated whatever I've got for retention
- 56:08it's not starting from here it's
- 56:10starting as soon as I decided I got to
- 56:13get access to that right so all of this
- 56:15is super deliberate fingers way off the
- 56:19trigger I want to start picking my
- 56:21sights up and I'm telling you this now
- 56:23because as we progress start thinking
- 56:25about this I can see my sights come into
- 56:28my periphery right here so from here I
- 56:32just track them to the target so think
- 56:38about that it's all one fluid movement
- 56:42you also notice I'm not bringing the gun
- 56:44up like this I'm not casting it out from
- 56:48here
- 56:49as I bring that gun out of the holster
- 56:51it's pointed in index towards the target
- 56:53because I can shoot from right here
- 57:00so get it out get it into the direction
- 57:02of the target but as you join your hands
- 57:05up pick up that sight and just follow it
- 57:07out you follow that does I'm not saying
- 57:11look down and find it start to become
- 57:14aware of when do I see it like I can see
- 57:16it right here I am focusing on my target
- 57:20but I see it below there it is there it
- 57:22is and I can track it out cool well
- 57:25paste that up down right I got downrange
- 57:27you got a pacer yep look left and right
- 57:32eyes and ears so a lot of this guys is
- 57:35on you I can't get in your heads II
- 57:38can't get in your head you can tell us
- 57:40you're being mindful but either you are
- 57:41or you aren't as I grab my whistle
- 57:50go ahead Z give it to him all right
- 57:54shoot already
- 57:55standby on you
- 58:21that means stop you guys are shooting
- 58:23way so fast I said shoot the tightest
- 58:25group you can check it out check it out
- 58:27check it out look look I'll pick your
- 58:30head watch watch me not the target by
- 58:32the way if you guys are watching
- 58:33something like if you're trying to like
- 58:35learn you don't learn anything by
- 58:37watching a hole up here and a piece of
- 58:39cardboard do you okay so look I want to
- 58:44shoot I'm gonna take the slack out of
- 58:46the trigger gonna shoot now I'm gonna
- 58:50find my front sight you know what I want
- 58:52to relax I'm feeling a little bit shaky
- 58:53I'm gonna press back out I'm gonna get
- 58:57the slack out of my trigger let's take
- 58:59that shot ooh now I got everybody
- 59:02watching me who's watching the holes up
- 59:03here little bit of wind pushing me right
- 59:08there I felt the wind so I'm being aware
- 59:10of what's happening you watching me or
- 59:12the target I don't hear you I just
- 59:23thought about as I was looking I felt
- 59:26the sight kind of rock left and back and
- 59:29forth in the knotch I'm being aware of
- 59:31that that's what I'm looking at I'm
- 59:33feeling what's actually happening both
- 59:36physically and mentally I feel that I
- 59:38have more weight loaded up on this leg
- 59:40and I don't like it so I'm gonna stop
- 59:42and I'm gonna shift it because it's
- 59:44starting to get fatigued I'm trying to
- 59:46get accurate results so I need to create
- 59:48a platform that allows me to do that I
- 59:50need to be aware of what's happening if
- 59:53I want to create that you tracking so
- 59:56slow the [ __ ] down it's not just about
- 59:58going slow though if the results not
- 1:00:00there if you guys are doing the same
- 1:00:01thing you just did a minute ago change
- 1:00:03something I don't mean change it just to
- 1:00:05change it change what's what's screwing
- 1:00:06you up so finish that up and then we'll
- 1:00:09we'll talk about that some more
- 1:00:17[Music]
- 1:00:36we're not gonna keep shooting groups I
- 1:00:38just want what I'm trying to get you
- 1:00:39guys to do is just like I said be aware
- 1:00:41downrange one of my mentors his name was
- 1:00:46Bob housing gay look him up sometime
- 1:00:49when you're bored Hou ze nga Bob housing
- 1:00:52gay police chief in Comanche Iowa
- 1:00:54six-time national shooting champ Bob
- 1:00:57helped develop a bunch of Massad Ayoob
- 1:00:58training programs Massad Ayoob is a very
- 1:01:01famous author educator shooter bob is
- 1:01:07now probably 60 ish well-known pistol
- 1:01:11smith as well bob says always starting
- 1:01:14and every training day hour whatever you
- 1:01:17got with accuracy so even if we're out
- 1:01:19here moving and grooving we're always
- 1:01:21starting and with accuracy why because
- 1:01:25if you can't hit something with the gun
- 1:01:27what else matters right and you can have
- 1:01:29the best reloads but if you can't make a
- 1:01:32shot on what you're trying to hit that's
- 1:01:34really the end result of if we're just
- 1:01:37talking mechanically of any gunplay is
- 1:01:40making the bullets go where you want
- 1:01:41them to go so we got to start these
- 1:01:44groups guys should be half this big at
- 1:01:45this distance all of our guns should
- 1:01:50from like 20 yards make a group about an
- 1:01:52inch to three inches depending on ammo
- 1:01:54so this should be most of our guns worse
- 1:01:59group at 25 yards I'm not picking on you
- 1:02:02I'm just picking on him a little bit a
- 1:02:05little bit so whereas we start throwing
- 1:02:09a piece of steel up at 50 yards whew 60
- 1:02:13yards now what's happening well I don't
- 1:02:15need to shoot at those distances no
- 1:02:16don't you you might not have to engage
- 1:02:19somebody and one of these types of crazy
- 1:02:20terrorist attacks now where dudes are
- 1:02:22shooting blasting away with rifles
- 1:02:24you're gonna go close on some guy in an
- 1:02:26open parking lot that has an 8k
- 1:02:28ain't gonna would you know yeah I mean
- 1:02:31that's craziness so you better have the
- 1:02:33ability to get those hits so we talked
- 1:02:36about the grip right high tight I'm
- 1:02:40gonna walk down the line real quick I
- 1:02:42want you to press your gun out don't
- 1:02:44don't put your hand on the triggers hold
- 1:02:47it what you're
- 1:02:47hand or your dominant hand and I want to
- 1:02:49show you how hard I'm gripping with my
- 1:02:52offhand so thumb up I'm squeezing about
- 1:02:58like that okay you seem like you've got
- 1:03:00some decent muscles little testosterone
- 1:03:02going I've done this to you before come
- 1:03:07up something like that remember the
- 1:03:10first time I did that you looked at me
- 1:03:12and I looked at you okay come over here
- 1:03:16thumb up so I'm doing about like that
- 1:03:20are you squeezing at least that hard by
- 1:03:22the time I'm done like with like a
- 1:03:23couple hours of group shooting I have
- 1:03:25exploded blood vessels in my hands
- 1:03:26before from mashing down that hard show
- 1:03:29me and some people say oh that's not
- 1:03:31necessary
- 1:03:33could be not like that big man suit you
- 1:03:40got thumb up I also want you guys to see
- 1:03:46where I'm putting my might the meat of
- 1:03:48my hand show me what you got tell me
- 1:03:51your name again first Chris with a see
- 1:03:53see that well do you have any other guns
- 1:03:56with you does your only pistol that you
- 1:03:58own yeah for the puppet at some point
- 1:04:00grab one of my Glocks I got a magazine
- 1:04:02I've got magazines and holsters just to
- 1:04:04try it do you I'm sure you've shot other
- 1:04:05guns I just want you to try and just see
- 1:04:08what we have for a result and before
- 1:04:09when we finish this we'll get your
- 1:04:11target stood back up who did you build
- 1:04:15oh you gotta want to Gabe slides feel
- 1:04:18that how hard I'm squeezing okay all
- 1:04:27right down right see you guys what we're
- 1:04:31going in a progression here because as
- 1:04:33II said a minute ago if the platform you
- 1:04:36have doesn't allow you to start slapping
- 1:04:38hits again why do I need to well we're
- 1:04:41gonna get to that it may take more than
- 1:04:43one shot might take more than ten so we
- 1:04:46need to get a platform that allows us to
- 1:04:48drive that gun right back out of the
- 1:04:50target so we call this natural point of
- 1:04:53aim so as we draw out and press the gun
- 1:04:56out it's going to be pointing at
- 1:04:58something if you don't have a lot of
- 1:05:00time behind the
- 1:05:00there might be no rhyme or reason to it
- 1:05:02but if you do any kind of Drive fire
- 1:05:05this is why Drive fire in what you're
- 1:05:07thinking about is so important as you're
- 1:05:08just ingraining and greening and
- 1:05:09draining habits so when you press the
- 1:05:11gun out ideally eyes and ears ideally as
- 1:05:16you draw as I press out and decide to
- 1:05:19take a shot I wasn't looking at my
- 1:05:21sights I was staring right at the paper
- 1:05:23I was pretty much just relying on my
- 1:05:27body and the fact that I know what I'm
- 1:05:30pointing at downrange to to get the job
- 1:05:36done that's super important because at
- 1:05:38these distances while I'm moving I might
- 1:05:41not be able to get that rock-solid sight
- 1:05:43picture so we need to start to learn to
- 1:05:45trust that we can't do that without a
- 1:05:47repeatable grip though so if like you're
- 1:05:50you're shooting in like a strange
- 1:05:51pattern for a right-handed person unless
- 1:05:53your first shot was up there normally
- 1:05:55you don't shoot high into the right so
- 1:05:58we'll look and see like you normally
- 1:06:00shoot high and right ok well that's
- 1:06:06strange so we'll look at that and see
- 1:06:08like what if that's just did you chase
- 1:06:10that bullet hole or what and most
- 1:06:12left-handed shooters shoot low and left
- 1:06:13in most right hand shooters shoot most
- 1:06:16right-handed shooters shoot low and left
- 1:06:18and lefties shoot low right
- 1:06:20why go like this stroke this finger
- 1:06:24index fingers stare at your hands not
- 1:06:27mine
- 1:06:27stroke them back and forth what's
- 1:06:29happening observe feel it yeah so what
- 1:06:33are you observing what are you feeling
- 1:06:34you feel these all moving inter digit
- 1:06:38response you guys all have kids you ever
- 1:06:41play with a baby put your finger in a
- 1:06:43baby's hand what happens so that grasp
- 1:06:46that grasp you know some people say
- 1:06:48that's like evolve from apes hanging on
- 1:06:51tree branches or whatever but we have
- 1:06:53that same one finger moves the rest of
- 1:06:56them want to tighten so that's
- 1:06:58problematic when shooting a pistol watch
- 1:07:00the muzzle I'm just gonna I'm just gonna
- 1:07:03flex these fingers which way would that
- 1:07:07put a bullet watch the laser on the
- 1:07:09ground low left right low right
- 1:07:14a lot of this is mental guns gonna go
- 1:07:16off guns gonna go off you know we're
- 1:07:20trying to muscle through it the the
- 1:07:23really neat thing about all of this all
- 1:07:26you're doing is trying to move this and
- 1:07:28nothing else there's no I don't care how
- 1:07:30strong you are how badass when it comes
- 1:07:32down to like marksmanship the less you
- 1:07:35can move this and just move that the
- 1:07:37better so awareness again when we do
- 1:07:41this again in a moment what am I paying
- 1:07:42attention to you guys every one of yous
- 1:07:47got different guns for the most part
- 1:07:49there's some amount of slack or take up
- 1:07:52in the trigger right some of you got
- 1:07:54aftermarket triggers that might reduce
- 1:07:56that to where you just immediately have
- 1:07:58a wall you all familiar with these terms
- 1:08:00so slack so you'll hear us say slack out
- 1:08:04so you're getting the slack out of the
- 1:08:05trigger so that now what are you doing
- 1:08:08you're reducing extraneous movement so
- 1:08:10if I was trying to shoot this group is
- 1:08:12tight a groups as I could or a very
- 1:08:14accurate well-placed shot without speed
- 1:08:17being a component of it I'd get the
- 1:08:19slack out of my trigger align my sights
- 1:08:22and just press straight to the rear
- 1:08:24right next thing on this if this is ten
- 1:08:27pounds to break it how much energy is
- 1:08:30required to break it so anything more
- 1:08:36than that that energy must go somewhere
- 1:08:38so if I apply 20 pounds that's what's
- 1:08:41all this [ __ ] is is you're applying more
- 1:08:44force than needed now can't be out to
- 1:08:46that if I have a just monster grip you
- 1:08:49could slap the [ __ ] out of the trigger
- 1:08:50if you've got just a vise on that that's
- 1:08:54okay there's great shooters that do that
- 1:08:56and if you're all freaked out it
- 1:08:58probably will be slapping on the trigger
- 1:08:59but you have to first develop the
- 1:09:01ability to get the hit and train it the
- 1:09:03one thing we need to learn to stroke
- 1:09:05that trigger correctly because the
- 1:09:07immediate fix for that low left or low
- 1:09:10right is to take your opposite hand and
- 1:09:12clamp down really hard it will limit the
- 1:09:15ability of these other fingers to stroke
- 1:09:17milking as it's called but what happens
- 1:09:19so if I if I'm a low left shooter and
- 1:09:21I've teach myself to just really clamp
- 1:09:24down I can make it go away what happens
- 1:09:26as soon as I have to do this
- 1:09:27you know and I'm right back so we need
- 1:09:30to get that good trigger press ability I
- 1:09:32do it terribly if I'm not thinking about
- 1:09:34it I can shoot low left all day long
- 1:09:36so there's a lot of times where I go to
- 1:09:38the range I'll take two three hundred
- 1:09:39rounds and all I do is I come back I'll
- 1:09:45do that for an hour straight and it's
- 1:09:47Labor it's work your training got
- 1:09:49anything out of that bro so we're
- 1:09:53building on this pretty soon some of you
- 1:09:54guys may be like oh my god this is so
- 1:09:55boring this is what we're gonna do for
- 1:09:59two days just this the same thing oh I'm
- 1:10:01just kidding
- 1:10:02well we're gonna soon as we get past
- 1:10:03this we'll get to doing some cooler [ __ ]
- 1:10:05can't do cool [ __ ] if you can't do this
- 1:10:08basic stuff you know we don't need to
- 1:10:11keep throwing up fresh paper you've got
- 1:10:14clear area put a round into it you know
- 1:10:17pick up spot that's clear in the paper
- 1:10:19put a round into it now what we're gonna
- 1:10:21work on get the gun out how's my grip am
- 1:10:23i high everywhere I need to be how's the
- 1:10:26grip pressure the other thing these are
- 1:10:28strong this is always stronger when I'm
- 1:10:31gripping the gun I have some inward
- 1:10:34pressure back shoulders chest and I can
- 1:10:37if I just pushed like this and one of
- 1:10:40you stroked the trigger the gun wouldn't
- 1:10:42move too much I can apply a lot more
- 1:10:43force like this than I can with just my
- 1:10:46hand strength would you agree any one of
- 1:10:48us could
- 1:10:49so also incorporate some of that look
- 1:10:51what happens if I almost like a scissor
- 1:10:56check this out I'm like done but the
- 1:11:00scissor where you're clamping down on
- 1:11:03the gun see what's happening there I'm
- 1:11:06dashing down grab onto the gun feel how
- 1:11:12hard I'm that's juiced up right juiced
- 1:11:16up
- 1:11:18I'm gonna do with a real gun with you
- 1:11:20this kid oh come on do it man get a shot
- 1:11:29get a shot of that you know it's really
- 1:11:33firm what are you not feeling when you
- 1:11:35move that what moved everything here you
- 1:11:38didn't see grab it again please
- 1:11:39you didn't see move it I just like
- 1:11:42wiggle up and down you know you didn't
- 1:11:44see it moving in my hands you saw my
- 1:11:47whole structure move because this is
- 1:11:48anchored man any point anywhere at all
- 1:11:52you grit your teeth a little bit and
- 1:11:53talk to them it makes it even harder
- 1:11:54it's a joke you don't need to do that
- 1:11:58everybody's too serious since you're
- 1:12:00going on to the structure of the hold
- 1:12:02Mick I was gonna throw how we're gonna
- 1:12:03throw it in there and I thought you
- 1:12:04might be waiting to throw that in there
- 1:12:06we just talked about trigger finger
- 1:12:07manipulation and your other digits being
- 1:12:11sympathetic to that right so as you're
- 1:12:14talking about getting that structure in
- 1:12:15there notice that he's been a little bit
- 1:12:17he's not rigid all the way out cause
- 1:12:19like he said before the energy has to go
- 1:12:21somewhere right this does have energy if
- 1:12:23he's locked out all the way whereas the
- 1:12:25energy gonna go it's gonna flip up right
- 1:12:28that's why you see we've talked to some
- 1:12:30of you guys some of your muzzle flipping
- 1:12:31up your here and every all the energy is
- 1:12:34going into these wrists right here
- 1:12:35there's nothing else no shock system
- 1:12:38hold that right no so if I'm here right
- 1:12:42locked out that's where it's gonna go
- 1:12:45because it's not gonna push me back
- 1:12:46before it pushes my wrist back right am
- 1:12:48i stronger than my wrist Thanks so most
- 1:12:50of us all right got my wrist locked in
- 1:12:52meaty portion of my hand on the gun grip
- 1:12:55and strong like he's talking about and I
- 1:12:57got that thumbs pointed towards the
- 1:12:58target basically just caning basically
- 1:13:00the more I can't this way the more I
- 1:13:02keep that muzzle flip down I keep that
- 1:13:04muzzle back on target because once I
- 1:13:06start combat shooting putting targets
- 1:13:08into a person quickly and effectively
- 1:13:10this is gonna go everywhere you're not
- 1:13:13you're gonna be point shooting more than
- 1:13:14likely not looking at the sights like he
- 1:13:16was talking about earlier so I'll keep
- 1:13:18that gun on there I'm not looking at the
- 1:13:20sights and I've got this elbows bent a
- 1:13:23little bit me personally I cocked my
- 1:13:26offhand a little more than my right hand
- 1:13:28this one's straight up in high and tight
- 1:13:31like he said
- 1:13:32you're not angle this one a little bit
- 1:13:34more just cuz it makes it it's a gross
- 1:13:36motor movement that makes that hand get
- 1:13:38tighter instead of just my fingers
- 1:13:40getting tighter I use leverage right
- 1:13:43what's stronger leverage or the isolated
- 1:13:45muscle movement right think about in the
- 1:13:48gym doing curls right for it curls for
- 1:13:49the girls you lean against the wall to
- 1:13:52get just the dot the biceps involved I
- 1:13:54lean it's harder but then when you if
- 1:13:56you really wanted to lift something
- 1:13:57which we really just want to shoot it
- 1:13:59and be on target in a combat way I'm
- 1:14:02just going to get everything I can to
- 1:14:03get that up there I can lift a lot more
- 1:14:05like that right so I'm getting
- 1:14:06everything into it boom boom boom I get
- 1:14:09that leverage it's locked in just like
- 1:14:12he's talking about you're not gonna pull
- 1:14:13that gun out of my hand I'm ready to
- 1:14:14fight that switch again that I was
- 1:14:16talking about when I get my hand on a
- 1:14:18gun and I'm ready
- 1:14:19I'm already here I'm ready to fight my
- 1:14:20whole demeanor changes look at me
- 1:14:23standing here yeah yeah gun my Chin's
- 1:14:27even down because I am a fighter and I
- 1:14:29think fighting my shoulders are up I'm
- 1:14:31rolled I'm ready to fight you're gonna
- 1:14:33you ready to fight I'm ready to fight
- 1:14:35I'm not here now if I want to range like
- 1:14:38we're talking about isolated shooting
- 1:14:40working on my trigger skills
- 1:14:42yeah I'm aleut relaxed and think about
- 1:14:44the part of marksmanship that I'm
- 1:14:47working on to that particular time what
- 1:14:50I'm thinking about fighting you can
- 1:14:51think about all that stuff and then add
- 1:14:54it all together but I'm getting in a way
- 1:14:56getting my gun ready in a position
- 1:14:58that's ready to fight you're not gonna
- 1:14:59take that gun out of my hand this is all
- 1:15:00the leverage taking some of that stress
- 1:15:02off of this hand so these little fingers
- 1:15:04don't get involved as much let this guy
- 1:15:05do the work but still as we're working
- 1:15:08this drill we're gonna do weak and
- 1:15:10strong hand eventually we will this
- 1:15:12afternoon yeah you'll be you'll be able
- 1:15:14to focus on that trigger finger right
- 1:15:16and isolate that one part of your
- 1:15:18marksmanship follow me so getting a
- 1:15:20fighting mindset I'm in a fight and then
- 1:15:23start thinking about what you can fix
- 1:15:25okay keep that muzzle on target feel
- 1:15:28some of that recoil come back instead of
- 1:15:30up right boom boom boom boom back
- 1:15:34collapse scissor sisters like you said
- 1:15:38I want to give you like way too much to
- 1:15:40think about I think what we're saying
- 1:15:42here
- 1:15:42you didn't be mindful of the grip now
- 1:15:46let's start to be really mindful slack
- 1:15:48out of the trigger some of you we may
- 1:15:50put our finger on your trigger while
- 1:15:52your fingers on there and I'll show you
- 1:15:54what we're talking about you track in
- 1:15:56one of the things that I don't really
- 1:15:57subscribe to pin in the trigger back
- 1:16:00reset pin in the trigger back reset
- 1:16:03that's the way you learn the reset of
- 1:16:05the trigger but when shooting
- 1:16:06I'm not when I'm shooting I'm shoot
- 1:16:11reset shoot reset you do you guys know
- 1:16:13what I'm talking about with the trigger
- 1:16:14reset we used to teach that a lot
- 1:16:16learning to reset the trigger like that
- 1:16:18and then the problem is is that now
- 1:16:20every time you're shooting you're
- 1:16:22training yourself to pin the trigger
- 1:16:24back soon I need to start shooting
- 1:16:25quickly and what good is the trigger
- 1:16:26doing that's just to familiarize it and
- 1:16:28fill it and then oh then you go beyond
- 1:16:30that so square up you guys got ammo on
- 1:16:33you ready
- 1:16:40[Music]
- 1:16:53right out
- 1:17:07forward beside you coming off the
- 1:17:16trigger when you reset
- 1:17:17I usually felt I'm shooting slow I do it
- 1:17:22when I'm shooting Fedor class like he's
- 1:17:23going out far put your finger on the
- 1:17:25trigger I'm gonna press I'm gonna press
- 1:17:26the trigger so slacks out right reset
- 1:17:30slacks out
- 1:17:33put your finger on the trigger so slacks
- 1:17:37out right reset it's nice and straight
- 1:17:44back let me shoot you dry out real quick
- 1:17:48come on this side two lefties in a row
- 1:17:51put your finger on the trigger so slacks
- 1:17:53coming out right come all the way
- 1:17:54forward slacks coming out reset what's
- 1:18:05that I didn't hear you well hit it I
- 1:18:08didn't want you to know dry out you got
- 1:18:12any ammo on you okay
- 1:18:13put your finger on the trigger let me
- 1:18:17get my finger in there it's a little gun
- 1:18:18I can't even get my it's so tight come
- 1:18:24forward what trigger is that apex let me
- 1:18:30see this real quick
- 1:18:39[Applause]
- 1:18:41here we throw a couple more in there for
- 1:18:43you it's still loaded I just wanted to
- 1:18:56see what you were dealing with there
- 1:18:57it's a nice trigger that's it it's a
- 1:18:59little long on the reset though yeah
- 1:19:01press out per second finger on the
- 1:19:06trigger
- 1:19:08who did the frame me you did what
- 1:19:12internals are in there stock except for
- 1:19:15the connector booster connector goes 3.5
- 1:19:24feel it real quick feels good
- 1:19:33press out once bro you got any ammo on
- 1:19:36you let you carry a gun unloaded usually
- 1:19:40no ok finger on the trigger reset so
- 1:19:50come all the way forward so the slack
- 1:19:53just isolate that cool
- 1:19:58that makes sense guys pulsar up I just
- 1:20:01asked him if he downrange if he got
- 1:20:04busted not busting your balls every one
- 1:20:06of you carries a loaded gun now so if
- 1:20:09you're out of ammo I understand why your
- 1:20:11guns not empty if you got ammo don't
- 1:20:13have a gun on you that's how empty if
- 1:20:15you run out of ammo today tomorrow and
- 1:20:18you your slide locks back mimic a reload
- 1:20:21you know grab nothing why do I need to
- 1:20:25tell you why ok let's top AR mags off
- 1:20:28hey if your mags are on the ground and
- 1:20:30you're hosted up you don't have to be
- 1:20:32scared to pick it up I mean your whole
- 1:20:33stood up right yeah look left and right
- 1:20:35we just don't want you flag in anybody
- 1:20:37and if you got good bullets in your
- 1:20:38pocket you can reload on the go
- 1:20:42yeah yeah yeah all right dudes let's get
- 1:20:47out here we're gonna we're gonna stretch
- 1:20:50our sites to their mechanical limits
- 1:20:52whoo what's he talking about it sounds
- 1:20:55crazy get official site how many of you
- 1:20:59have ever figured out where your sites
- 1:21:02hit at different distances most of our
- 1:21:05guns come like fifteen or twenty five
- 1:21:07yards zero what's that mean
- 1:21:10bullets don't fly in a straight line
- 1:21:11like a laser they fly in a trajectory a
- 1:21:14quick way to figure that out we're not
- 1:21:17doing that right now but you could put a
- 1:21:18target like this up space out some
- 1:21:21distances 5 7 10 15 20 30 yards and then
- 1:21:26you got to get really steady and just
- 1:21:27shoot like three rounds at each distance
- 1:21:29aiming at the same point you know the
- 1:21:31rounds will start hitting they'll go low
- 1:21:34they'll go high they'll come right back
- 1:21:36do you ever do that with your gun no
- 1:21:39it's good to know because when you start
- 1:21:41having to shoot like that the piece of
- 1:21:43steel out there [ __ ] I don't know what
- 1:21:46my sights head I guess I should have
- 1:21:47figured that out before I tried to like
- 1:21:49play hero equal height equal light now
- 1:21:54some sights are set up to shoot like a
- 1:21:57lollipop so if you're a bullseye shooter
- 1:21:59aiming at this at these distances I'm
- 1:22:02guessing most of our guns we would have
- 1:22:04to cover this with our front sight is
- 1:22:06that what you would do or would you hold
- 1:22:09it so your front sight was underneath it
- 1:22:13I'm asking it's your gun so we're gonna
- 1:22:17get a perfect sight picture equal height
- 1:22:19equal light equal light meaning left and
- 1:22:21right equal height up and down I think a
- 1:22:23lot of people when you're taking really
- 1:22:25accurate shots don't think about how
- 1:22:27important this left and right is just
- 1:22:29cuz it's in between doesn't mean [ __ ]
- 1:22:30which is why I like a a very good
- 1:22:34accuracy sight will have very tight
- 1:22:38dimensions where you just are looking at
- 1:22:39like sliver sliver you know what I mean
- 1:22:42we're a combat sight you just get that
- 1:22:44or floating around in there you
- 1:22:45understand
- 1:22:46so you're gonna get that first shot
- 1:22:48press a shot off then we're gonna lift
- 1:22:51the front sight completely out of the
- 1:22:52notch still aiming at this
- 1:22:55then we're gonna bury the front sight
- 1:22:57completely in the knotch
- 1:22:58then we're gonna come back to centre and
- 1:23:00go all the way to the left all the way
- 1:23:02to the right or whichever way I'm going
- 1:23:03backwards here so what will end up
- 1:23:05happening here is you're gonna shoot all
- 1:23:07around that hey remember let's gonna
- 1:23:10negate anything you do with your sights
- 1:23:13if you're ripping it trigger it up so
- 1:23:16you still gotta have good trigger
- 1:23:17control here so I'll call it you're
- 1:23:20gonna get that first shot I'm gonna say
- 1:23:22slack out so you guys are all gonna be
- 1:23:24on the site
- 1:23:25don't shoot as soon as I tell you to get
- 1:23:27the slack out and then I'll say press
- 1:23:29and whenever you're ready press through
- 1:23:31get a perfect hit will come up like like
- 1:23:34right here guys right here so we're at
- 1:23:39like about 13 feet or so load and make
- 1:23:42ready press the gun out you guys all
- 1:23:44understand what's happening press out
- 1:23:46find your front sight put your front
- 1:23:48sight right over now just look a little
- 1:23:51bit so you got a red dot if I was you I
- 1:23:53was okay I was gonna say use your irons
- 1:23:55now so you can see what's what
- 1:23:57okay find your front sight put it on the
- 1:24:00paper just move around a little bit feel
- 1:24:03that sight going left right up down so
- 1:24:05you see what's happening right I need
- 1:24:08some audible okay
- 1:24:11slack out of the trigger you're going to
- 1:24:13put one hole in that piece of tape slack
- 1:24:14out of the trigger and press come back
- 1:24:22to Center come back to center front
- 1:24:25sight square it up in the notch equal
- 1:24:28height equal light and now lift the
- 1:24:30sight all the way out of the notch ready
- 1:24:33so back to Center squared up lift it all
- 1:24:36the way out of the notch and press
- 1:24:37straight back
- 1:24:41right back to centre right back to
- 1:24:43centre
- 1:24:44come on back to centre come right back
- 1:24:47onto that blue dot and now berry berry
- 1:24:50the site in the in the not slack out
- 1:24:54press come back Center come back to
- 1:24:59centre
- 1:25:00come back to centre now you're gonna go
- 1:25:02all the way to the left so Square it up
- 1:25:04where you got equal height equal light
- 1:25:05and push the front sight all the way to
- 1:25:08the left all the way to the left and
- 1:25:10press a shot off come back to centre
- 1:25:18come back to centre now square it back
- 1:25:22up equal height equal light push the
- 1:25:25front sight all the way to the right
- 1:25:27slack out and press when you're done
- 1:25:35before you guys do anything what would
- 1:25:38be a good thing for you to do right now
- 1:25:39something that I'm just gonna see if
- 1:25:41anybody answers it'll be a good thing to
- 1:25:42do before you reholster I heard press
- 1:25:45check scan how about top you've done off
- 1:25:48you could if you wanted to techno
- 1:25:51holster up holster up okay so that was
- 1:25:56really good man there's people that do
- 1:25:57this that it's as II said this only
- 1:25:59works if you're doing everything else
- 1:26:01right you know a good grip good trigger
- 1:26:03press downrange so why are we doing this
- 1:26:07our site is a measuring tool right it's
- 1:26:11a yardstick it's a tape measure all it's
- 1:26:13doing is allowing us to measure the
- 1:26:15clean of the butt up of the muzzle in
- 1:26:18relationship to the target you've just
- 1:26:22pushed it to its design limits and you
- 1:26:24still got effective hits on say the
- 1:26:26chest cavity of a man right and then we
- 1:26:29overcomplicate it and we're all of a
- 1:26:31sudden it you know we're really close
- 1:26:32here but we assume that we need some
- 1:26:36super sight picture to get hits you
- 1:26:39don't so we say that there's three sight
- 1:26:41pictures this is one of those things
- 1:26:43that you don't want to get hung up on
- 1:26:45but it's something to be cognizant off
- 1:26:48sight picture one is what we were just
- 1:26:49doing group shooting it's a perfect
- 1:26:51clear sight picture if
- 1:26:53you have a perfect clear sight picture
- 1:26:55what should you see in focus
- 1:26:57front sight so sight picture 2 would be
- 1:27:03possibly a little bit of movement a
- 1:27:05little bit of fuzz maybe you see the
- 1:27:07target maybe you see the front sight
- 1:27:09they're kind of going in and out of
- 1:27:10focus at this distance do you need a
- 1:27:12perfect sight gear one picture psyche or
- 1:27:16three shits bouncing all over you maybe
- 1:27:20you can't see because of light
- 1:27:22conditions I'm fixated on you for
- 1:27:26whatever reason all I'm doing is
- 1:27:29basically point shooting at that point
- 1:27:31doesn't mean that I'm not cognizant of
- 1:27:33the sights I see them but I'm not
- 1:27:35focusing on them and they might be
- 1:27:37bouncing all over does that make sense
- 1:27:40and then there's Mineral Point shooting
- 1:27:42which are in a minute we're gonna shoot
- 1:27:43with our eyes closed and we're going to
- 1:27:44just experiment with that so right now
- 1:27:46we're gonna press back out once I come
- 1:27:48up range we're gonna draw out I'm gonna
- 1:27:51have you take your sights this is kind
- 1:27:53of on you you're just gonna start
- 1:27:54bouncing them you're maybe going to
- 1:27:57figure eight on your target here just
- 1:27:59bounce them around and just start
- 1:28:01hitting the trigger and watch what
- 1:28:02happens
- 1:28:04another awareness thing here we got to
- 1:28:06be aware that we're not stopping because
- 1:28:09we want good hits watch the laser I just
- 1:28:12got the SIRT gun so this is pretty much
- 1:28:14what I'm saying like that that's how
- 1:28:16much I'm moving okay when you see the
- 1:28:19sights kind of intersect somewhere where
- 1:28:21that blue tape is get a hit it's not I'm
- 1:28:26not like where's it at stop shoot where
- 1:28:29is it at
- 1:28:30stop shoot I'm moving all over the thing
- 1:28:33if to do this drill correctly you're not
- 1:28:36moving the sights like this you're just
- 1:28:39freaking they're bouncing all over you
- 1:28:42follow you'll be amazed at what will
- 1:28:44happen I like breathing hard simulating
- 1:28:46breathing alright press out
- 1:28:53here's what you should be paying
- 1:28:54attention to paying attention to
- 1:28:57actually seeing your sight see them
- 1:28:59where they're at on the paper
- 1:29:01head make sure your grips good see them
- 1:29:04on the paper you can do this with your
- 1:29:05dot too if you want just start moving
- 1:29:08them around start moving them around
- 1:29:09start moving them around now when you
- 1:29:12see then kind of correlate to that blue
- 1:29:15dot
- 1:29:15now guys have your finger on the trigger
- 1:29:17during this whole exercise okay when you
- 1:29:20see it you're gonna run through like a
- 1:29:21mag here go ahead
- 1:29:53[Applause]
- 1:30:06once we're all back in the holster did
- 1:30:10anybody miss the paper if there's a
- 1:30:12couple misses we'll paste them and it's
- 1:30:13okay if you did guys don't get fixated
- 1:30:16on hand wanting to be the guy that's got
- 1:30:18a perfect score the perfect score is
- 1:30:21getting hits the perfect score is
- 1:30:23learning something it's hard to make
- 1:30:25yourself miss you want to ambush that's
- 1:30:26what you want to do like you say don't
- 1:30:28do your like find it find it when it's
- 1:30:30on shoot that's ambushing like when
- 1:30:31you're breathing hard or something's
- 1:30:33moving you kind of wait on it when it
- 1:30:34gets there you hit it and bushing the
- 1:30:36the target right this kill hear yourself
- 1:30:39do that the skill here guys is not
- 1:30:41whether or not you can hit it none of
- 1:30:43you are going to impress me with your
- 1:30:44shooting and it's not because you're not
- 1:30:46great guys that shoot good I happen to
- 1:30:48know some of the best shooters alive
- 1:30:49you're not going to impress me with your
- 1:30:51shooting you need to be chirality missus
- 1:30:54missus means that you're pushing it to
- 1:30:56the limits and then you figure out
- 1:30:58what's happening here's what we're gonna
- 1:31:00do hold these per second so great drill
- 1:31:04if you guys don't have access to a
- 1:31:05facility like this where you're running
- 1:31:06indoor range set this same thing up
- 1:31:09piece of notebook paper piece of
- 1:31:11cardboard
- 1:31:12you're gonna start we're going to start
- 1:31:14this drill by you swinging your sights
- 1:31:16horizontally I picked this up from Frank
- 1:31:18Proctor I'd like to make sure people
- 1:31:19know that somebody somebody tells me I
- 1:31:21stole somebody [ __ ] once pick this up
- 1:31:22and Frank Proctor which I don't know if
- 1:31:24it Frank if it was his or not you swing
- 1:31:27from stick to stick maybe a little
- 1:31:29outside the stick so this is all your
- 1:31:31doing
- 1:31:31I'm right now I've got my sights lined
- 1:31:34up correctly I'm tracking like this okay
- 1:31:38step up here so here's all just going to
- 1:31:40happen stick to stick my fingers on the
- 1:31:42trigger slack out pop pop pop pop pop
- 1:31:47pop pop see that again an awareness
- 1:31:51thing if you guys start paper Bop
- 1:31:57you're not doing it right just keep
- 1:31:59swinging through all I'm trying to get
- 1:32:01you to do is be aware of your sights pay
- 1:32:03attention think about what's happening
- 1:32:06run through a mag like that if if I'm
- 1:32:09gonna walk up and down the line so Izzy
- 1:32:11if you guys are like going too slow it's
- 1:32:13not a speed thing but if you're trying
- 1:32:15to game it like he just said ambushing
- 1:32:17it you're not learning a damn thing
- 1:32:19so if draw press out just start running
- 1:32:24left and right left and right of the
- 1:32:25stick to stick stick to stick if you're
- 1:32:28hitting what you want to hit every time
- 1:32:29you're you're going too slow you should
- 1:32:32be missing at some point when you start
- 1:32:35moving once you push it that far
- 1:32:37am I right Nick yeah for sure I mean if
- 1:32:40you did this all day long
- 1:32:41eventually you'd get to a point where
- 1:32:43you'd be really good at it but to learn
- 1:32:45it you should be falling left right left
- 1:32:47right now just start thinking put your
- 1:32:49finger on the trigger but don't squeeze
- 1:32:51go left right left right just start
- 1:32:53saying boom boom like when you'd shoot
- 1:32:56and you can go both ways shoot from when
- 1:32:58you're coming from the left or the right
- 1:33:00you follow all right press out let's go
- 1:33:04through a magazine you guys are moving
- 1:33:06around a little bit so you know make
- 1:33:07sure that your muzzles are being safe as
- 1:33:11you're going left and right so this
- 1:33:13whole magazine you're not coming in till
- 1:33:15the mag goes empty when the gun goes
- 1:33:16empty reload so pay attention to what
- 1:33:18you're doing let's go push your
- 1:33:20limitations wobble limitation
- 1:33:44nicest way to push see what you got work
- 1:33:47with now your limitation you right to
- 1:33:51the your limitation next okay when you
- 1:33:53holster up a move so you can't have
- 1:33:55sight gear one it's not possible if
- 1:33:57you're doing what the drill is intended
- 1:33:59for alright so you got to have side gear
- 1:34:02two or three where it's an acceptable
- 1:34:04sight picture we call it it's an
- 1:34:05acceptable sight picture that will get
- 1:34:06me somewhere within my target at this
- 1:34:09distance right and it's acceptable so
- 1:34:12I'm not seeing clearly that sight I'm
- 1:34:14not seeing clearly that target it's kind
- 1:34:15of in between boom boom boom boom and
- 1:34:17I'm almost point shooting when I start
- 1:34:19moving fast right I know a lot I can
- 1:34:21tell that my body is pointing at that
- 1:34:23silhouette in front of me right so
- 1:34:26that's what you're looking for go faster
- 1:34:27get to the edge don't get unsafe where
- 1:34:29you're flinging it over here over there
- 1:34:31right but between these two go faster
- 1:34:33push it push it make it hard to hit what
- 1:34:36you're trying to hit this is the kind of
- 1:34:38stuff that literally if you put in work
- 1:34:41on this kind of stuff you'll become
- 1:34:43really skilled with the gun same drill
- 1:35:04after
- 1:35:18faster faster faster faster faster John
- 1:35:24ran to Meg's there was two mags - max -
- 1:35:27max do one more mag
- 1:35:57hey that's a little rest I'll do for you
- 1:36:05nice good though you look very gauche in
- 1:36:09it you were going a little slow because
- 1:36:11you are in Stig's is hit the target I'm
- 1:36:13trying to give good target shooting
- 1:36:15right push your limitation or you don't
- 1:36:17know how you're gonna no you guys
- 1:36:19holster it up let's scoop our gear okay
- 1:36:23good shoot Oh feels like we got that
- 1:36:26weather moving in
- 1:36:27let's I'll throw up new [ __ ] you guys
- 1:36:29top your mags we'll get these targets
- 1:36:31prepped up for the next next drill so
- 1:36:35you're gonna draw you're gonna get these
- 1:36:38hits these hits don't require the same
- 1:36:40sight refinement do you guys see the a
- 1:36:43zone here and you see the little
- 1:36:45rectangle
- 1:36:45you all can that's your target zone that
- 1:36:49little that's the ocular vault
- 1:36:50so while like hitting here is the head
- 1:36:55that's a Miss you're aiming for this
- 1:36:58that's like four inches by two inches so
- 1:37:01what has to happen you got to slow down
- 1:37:04get that refined sight picture get the
- 1:37:07slack out and get the hit we'll start
- 1:37:09slow
- 1:37:10this is now hits are all that matters on
- 1:37:14this drill there's no time requirement
- 1:37:16right now
- 1:37:16let's go to one-to-one great and then
- 1:37:20final sight picture and retreat back to
- 1:37:23the holster I see what we're gonna do
- 1:37:26they're gonna go and I'm gonna stop the
- 1:37:31next one
- 1:37:33- one final sight picture recover to the
- 1:37:47holster hey guys check it out so this is
- 1:37:52what I'm watching what you should be
- 1:38:01doing watch me not the target
- 1:38:03I made up my miss you don't need that
- 1:38:10refined sight on that paper that's not a
- 1:38:14psyche or one throw it out there slow
- 1:38:18down get the hit see what's happening
- 1:38:21what's the point of doing the drill if I
- 1:38:23was really in a fight right I'm getting
- 1:38:25my gun up and get it on something as
- 1:38:26quick as possible that acceptable sight
- 1:38:28picture bang bang and then if it's still
- 1:38:29happenin which as you see we didn't get
- 1:38:32to see the video but it's talked about
- 1:38:33in the paperwork you have bodies keep
- 1:38:35moving when they get shot with bullets
- 1:38:37and it's not in the the off button right
- 1:38:39so boom boom got him slowed down now
- 1:38:43make sure the threat is going right if
- 1:38:44it was still a threat which in this case
- 1:38:46these are still threats only hits count
- 1:38:49I missed what happened how did I know I
- 1:38:53missed because I was immediately
- 1:38:55assessing what I was doing I did not
- 1:38:58watch me not the target
- 1:38:59I didn't immediately drag the gun in I
- 1:39:03shot not that I saw through my sights
- 1:39:09the miss I saw it appear okay get it
- 1:39:12again I'm just shooting the berm guys
- 1:39:14don't freak out
- 1:39:15hey real quick to add to that as he's as
- 1:39:18he's presenting his gun right alright we
- 1:39:21talked about it earlier when he's
- 1:39:22talking about drawing and getting it out
- 1:39:23you can have your gun here and shoot all
- 1:39:24the way out if you had to right so can I
- 1:39:26be prepping that trigger back here
- 1:39:28alright I'm getting ready to shoot I'm
- 1:39:30pulling slack slack is getting pulled as
- 1:39:32soon as my weapon it's pointed in the

- 1:43:14holding a 40 Cal scary it bounces around
- 1:43:19for sure
- 1:43:20so when you started gripping tighter
- 1:43:22with your right hand you started pushing
- 1:43:25the gun off the line yeah when I grip I
- 1:43:30tend to jerk the trigger with this hand
- 1:43:33though I want more pressure with that
- 1:43:35hand

- 1:43:53guys got ammo on there if you're crooked
- 1:43:55a little bit that'll be put a little bit
- 1:43:56of a melania just leverage that hand
- 1:43:58into it this muscle you're squeezing
- 1:44:01with this must push in here right yeah
- 1:44:03look let's try it again

- 1:44:09downrange right elbow yeah now put your
- 1:44:11elbow up do the Z we're going you keep
- 1:44:13doing what you're doing no no I was
- 1:44:14gonna say you got going leverage it up a
- 1:44:16little bit you'll feel that you'll feel
- 1:44:18it
- 1:44:28did I hit
- 1:44:30did it work just that little how about
- 1:44:38getting the leverage right I think I got
- 1:44:40to do something crazy it's just
- 1:44:41I'll pay anybody $30 to shoot you
- 1:44:43scammer right now I'm just - one two one
- 1:44:52ready dogs behind you guys pay attention
- 1:45:01like the police academy hey you guys
- 1:45:06remember in what I just said get that
- 1:45:11final sight picture you're prepped I'm
- 1:45:13ready to fire it doesn't I'm not saying
- 1:45:15this just to you it's not why I'm
- 1:45:16standing here it's not did I hit it at
- 1:45:20work do you know is everything good I'm
- 1:45:22ready to fire again
- 1:45:24I shot it does he need to know there
- 1:45:25yeah does he need to go there don't
- 1:45:28don't drag the gun back in and then have
- 1:45:32that conversation that's range crap you
- 1:45:35know looks like after that like I
- 1:45:37mentioned that to you some of you guys
- 1:45:39you're getting that picture but you're
- 1:45:40off the trigger and you're looking your
- 1:45:41turkey neck and we call it you know all
- 1:45:43right if you really I know it's hard to
- 1:45:45do on the range you don't have a real
- 1:45:46body facing you were gonna do drills
- 1:45:48later that'll put you more in that
- 1:45:50mindset but that is mindset you're
- 1:45:51training yourself now visualize I'm
- 1:45:53shooting shooting back on that trigger
- 1:45:55do I need to hit him again then you
- 1:45:57could pull off the trigger once you're
- 1:45:59done it's arranges and when you pop out
- 1:46:00of the trigger all the time because
- 1:46:01you're used to drills same thing when
- 1:46:02you do this you're like and you're back
- 1:46:04in the holster superfast
- 1:46:06don't do that right here I can collapse
- 1:46:08down scissor the the opposite of the
- 1:46:11scissor scissoring back here even after
- 1:46:15I get my last sight pictures boom okay
- 1:46:18alright what I got here you know maybe I
- 1:46:20need a holster or not you know I mean
- 1:46:22but you don't have to be in a hurry here
- 1:46:23right that's nice and it feels
- 1:46:26mechanical I'd do the same thing I'm
- 1:46:27like huh
- 1:46:28because it's like a mechanical freaking
- 1:46:29reaction from doing things on the range
- 1:46:31so much right but getting the
- 1:46:32self-defense mindset boom
- 1:46:35last site picture off the trigger I'm
- 1:46:36bringing it back I can collapse ain't
- 1:46:39got to do all the dramatic crap like
- 1:46:41this right I'm not in a commando movie
- 1:46:42I'm just checking seeing what's going on
- 1:46:45making sure this guy's not gonna shoot
- 1:46:46me or maybe I can make sure I can pick
- 1:46:49that pick up my mags after I holster
- 1:46:50all right nobody's I'm not in front of
- 1:46:53anybody let me just get my mag not
- 1:46:55flagging anybody makes sense it's hard
- 1:46:58to do I know if you've done a lot of
- 1:46:59range shooting you've got a lot of
- 1:47:00drills you're programmed a certain way
- 1:47:02try to put thinking the silk defense
- 1:47:04mindset think about that's a real person
- 1:47:05I'm shooting get yourself in that
- 1:47:07mindset we're gonna get you in that
- 1:47:08eventually but start thinking about it
- 1:47:10now prep and visualizing if you got a
- 1:47:13load up load up how many shots
- 1:47:17how many shots three two three two ready
- 1:47:31missus don't count make it up there's a
- 1:47:34shot below the head make it up with that
- 1:47:37last sight pictures for I'll Bob make it
- 1:47:40up there you go
- 1:47:43this is the point dude psyche gears the
- 1:47:45sight gear slow down think about what
- 1:47:48you're doing right three three
- 1:48:07[Applause]
- 1:48:09- Oh what you got go ahead and load
- 1:48:27holstered all right hold up not picking
- 1:48:31on you don't move don't move
- 1:48:32now take it where you can see my man
- 1:48:34here Chris see Chris all right we're
- 1:48:39shooting pretty close to a combat drill
- 1:48:42right you're shooting two and one or
- 1:48:43however many in the body and Powerman in
- 1:48:46the head all right
- 1:48:47is this fighting are you ready to fight
- 1:48:49you know yet I'm not picking on you but
- 1:48:53you just think of it what it is I
- 1:48:55understand we're just bringing it to
- 1:48:56your attention you got a lot of things
- 1:48:57you're thinking about when you're
- 1:48:58training right you're thinking about
- 1:48:59trigger control drawing being safe all
- 1:49:02right
- 1:49:02automatically everything should start
- 1:49:04here I'm ready to fight all right you're
- 1:49:07not gonna push me over I'm ready to
- 1:49:09fight you now right if I stop life I was
- 1:49:12walking and I stopped what I being some
- 1:49:14light up symbol it's of a fighting
- 1:49:17position right I'm walking aggressively
- 1:49:20right
- 1:49:21even if I'm this way or this way I've
- 1:49:23got some kind of athletic well-balanced
- 1:49:27stance not here like this not like this
- 1:49:31all right
- 1:49:32so think I'm fighting put all those
- 1:49:35other things in the play but get ready
- 1:49:37to fight get ready to fight there's the
- 1:49:39shot string speed up you should feel
- 1:49:40your weight kind of come out of the
- 1:49:42balls of your feet
- 1:49:43familiar here if you watch like some
- 1:49:46like speed shooters like really really
- 1:49:48fast dudes the fly to lock back and
- 1:49:51they'll go like this literally because
- 1:49:53they're biased is so forward literally
- 1:49:58quickly we can do this press out guys
- 1:50:01fingers off the trigger Z you can go
- 1:50:03from that and I'll go from this lets
- 1:50:05press out check it out
- 1:50:09see that so shift your weight bias
- 1:50:12forward fight the recoil fight the
- 1:50:19recoil if I'm knocking you back fight
- 1:50:21the recoil bending your knees slightly
- 1:50:24just like shock absorbers in your elbow
- 1:50:26on your heels when you don't evolve your
- 1:50:30feet like you're about to move forward
- 1:50:31you'll have to just think I'm about to
- 1:50:33spring spring spring in so your boos you
- 1:50:37you're on your heels like a SWAT
- 1:50:38we're not swatting though being athletic
- 1:50:40so here boom little boom make sense
- 1:50:46Thank You Z okay that's that's all about
- 1:50:50what we're talking about having up your
- 1:50:52all your job is is to be slightly down
- 1:50:56range is to be the best vice you can be
- 1:50:59for this you're a machine gun turret
- 1:51:02that's what you are
- 1:51:03I missed one grit your teeth I just do
- 1:51:18that for fun for too aggressive
- 1:51:25Oh
- 1:51:29more strength remorse right there tell
- 1:51:37ya how's that feeling alright downrange
- 1:51:41keep them holstered something super
- 1:51:43super simple since you guys are picking
- 1:51:45this [ __ ] up if you're hosters you can
- 1:51:46pick your mags up point your fingers at
- 1:51:49me I'm not where I was right so we're
- 1:51:55gonna just start incorporating a little
- 1:51:56bit of movement later we'll incorporate
- 1:51:57a lot of movement it's not it's not it's
- 1:52:05all one fluid movement so you guys might
- 1:52:09need to spread out a little it's okay if
- 1:52:11you're angling slightly towards your
- 1:52:12target so if you bump into the guy next
- 1:52:15to you that's okay too you might bump
- 1:52:16into somebody in a fight get off the
- 1:52:19line find your sights might this be kind
- 1:52:23of important to be able to move and
- 1:52:25shoot simultaneously if we pronounce it
- 1:52:28correctly so start adding that so you're
- 1:52:31gonna move you're gonna draw you're
- 1:52:33going to engage whatever number that
- 1:52:34we're telling you then what's gonna
- 1:52:36happen hey and you're already warmed up
- 1:52:40for that right what drill did we just do
- 1:52:41that simulated that acceptable sight
- 1:52:42picture with the guns moving around or
- 1:52:44if you get bumped
- 1:52:45that's right boom boom boom we already
- 1:52:47here already let you warm up for it what
- 1:52:51happens after you shoot I want you guys
- 1:52:55to start saying out loud did I hurt did
- 1:52:57it work does need another York tour you
- 1:53:01can say this beloved creature that God
- 1:53:04made that went astray that I just had to
- 1:53:07shoot however you want to phrase it or
- 1:53:09just say doing any another do I need
- 1:53:13another say whatever you need let's
- 1:53:15start out with two one two one wherever
- 1:53:17you wherever you stop and fire to stay
- 1:53:20there and then go back the other way
- 1:53:22when we do the drill again capiche - one
- 1:53:27- one explode explode
- 1:53:35what didn't I just hear anybody say does
- 1:53:40he need another do I have to shoot him -
- 1:53:42one last sight picture with your finger
- 1:53:51on trigger ready to shoot who missed any
- 1:53:56shots why did you miss don't answer me
- 1:54:01are you analyzing that what did I do
- 1:54:03wrong I don't know what it was did you
- 1:54:06get on the trigger too hard did you not
- 1:54:08have a good sight picture people that
- 1:54:10are really amazing shooters are nothing
- 1:54:12more than somebody that's really highly
- 1:54:14aware of their body figure skater
- 1:54:17spinning Walter Payton dancing over
- 1:54:20people with a ball you follow high body
- 1:54:24awareness you know what that's called
- 1:54:25proprioception proprioception look that
- 1:54:29word up later you awareness of your body
- 1:54:31and time and space what it's doing pay
- 1:54:35attention you can build that three three
- 1:54:38[Applause]
- 1:54:51recover reluctantly you guys are are are
- 1:54:55shooting somebody that committed
- 1:54:57something against you that requires you
- 1:54:59to probably end their life or at least
- 1:55:01alter their mobility for the rest of
- 1:55:03their life recover reluctantly don't be
- 1:55:06don't be in a hurry to put that gun away
- 1:55:08did I hit did it work then does he have
- 1:55:13any friends just have any friends range
- 1:55:16scanning just looking around is
- 1:55:20meaningless if you're not identifying
- 1:55:22something identify the steal out there
- 1:55:24look at Drew's camera look at zis hat
- 1:55:27look at the license plate in the car be
- 1:55:29from the parking lot behind us identify
- 1:55:32something become a again you are aware
- 1:55:34can you be more aware or less aware I
- 1:55:37think no I think you are either aware or
- 1:55:40you're not you can't like try harder to
- 1:55:42be aware either you're open to allowing
- 1:55:45information in or you're closed
- 1:55:47I'll add to that multitasking is
- 1:55:50[ __ ] you can't do a bunch of things
- 1:55:53at once that require your brain so we
- 1:55:57got to get all of these mechanical
- 1:55:58things the shooting the moving the
- 1:56:00placing hits on targets the reload the
- 1:56:02holster our drawing Andrey holstering to
- 1:56:05a subconscious level so that now we can
- 1:56:07free our brain up to actually perform
- 1:56:09the strategy of fighting you follow
- 1:56:12would you agree Zee yes sir three three
- 1:56:29how's that feel boys I didn't hear
- 1:56:35anybody call out what they were supposed
- 1:56:37to call out for - you know I don't what
- 1:56:55when I'm training while I'm trying to be
- 1:56:57safe I don't really give a [ __ ] whatever
- 1:56:59the guy next to me is doing I not have
- 1:57:01to protect his family
- 1:57:02I got to protect mine I don't to protect
- 1:57:04his citizens I got to protect mine so
- 1:57:07really immerse yourself in it become
- 1:57:10aware Cook County give me the number how

- 1:58:48scoop your gear
- 1:58:55[Music]
- 1:58:59hi it effective hit hit you shot about
- 1:59:11six feet to the right what happened

- 1:59:59that after I just shot it all on you get
- 2:00:05me right in the nose hit well right

- 2:04:06real straight it does it feel like

- 2:11:08make anybody look bad guys this is
- 2:11:09helping you see where you need to work
- 2:11:11on stuff then that's one of your guns
- 2:11:29right there Clark Gable's shooting one
- 2:11:33of yours I was just looking at your
- 2:11:56moustache bro
- 2:12:08who's up is everybody that I'm doing I
- 2:12:13think you're like those Proctor sites
- 2:12:31little high left winner winner it's
- 2:13:00awesome bro
- 2:13:01time is it 12:30 ish let's take a break
- 2:13:05so everybody heard of fine motor
- 2:13:07movement gross motor movement and heard
- 2:13:11it in you know in relevance to like
- 2:13:14being under stress right they tell you
- 2:13:16you know you're under stress you're on
- 2:13:17the spot or you know combat shooting in
- 2:13:21a real scenario the gross motor takes
- 2:13:23over right the big tactile things you
- 2:13:25want that's why people say you don't
- 2:13:26grab your magazine like this you grab it
- 2:13:27boom you grab it and you throw it in
- 2:13:29there you aim everything that way you're
- 2:13:31not worried about the fine movements
- 2:13:33right fingers can be considered fine
- 2:13:35right if I'm trying to control all my
- 2:13:37individual fingers on my gun I'm
- 2:13:40thinking about little fine things and
- 2:13:42I'm still in a bin earlier I used to
- 2:13:45think like of course you got to work on
- 2:13:47your isolating your trigger finger right
- 2:13:49that's why we do the strong hand we can
- 2:13:50or offhand whatever alright I think
- 2:13:52about controlling you know letting these
- 2:13:54guys relax why this guy does all the
- 2:13:56work
- 2:13:56alright you work you work on that but
- 2:13:58when you become in action shoot our
- 2:14:01combat shooter doing those type of
- 2:14:02drills where you're putting a lot of
- 2:14:03things together you want less thought
- 2:14:06for the fine movements right so instead
- 2:14:09of thinking control my trigger finger
- 2:14:11I've built in some kind of amount of
- 2:14:13skill from from building habits right on
- 2:14:15the range but you guys got pretty good
- 2:14:17skill already as well now I just think
- 2:14:20about
- 2:14:20give more input with this hand with the
- 2:14:23big motor or our gross motor function
- 2:14:26then worry about the fine motor
- 2:14:28functions alright and it helps me out a
- 2:14:29lot so I just go up my grip the gun and
- 2:14:32I think about getting this elbow because
- 2:14:33what's gonna get tired for us this or
- 2:14:35this muscle which one this is gonna get
- 2:14:38tired first right so I don't you got to
- 2:14:39think about it so I just get my leverage
- 2:14:41I've torque up my arm a little bit on
- 2:14:42that offhand and it gives me that big
- 2:14:44meaty part of the hand vise that Mick
- 2:14:47mentioned earlier a vise and now my
- 2:14:49fingers automatically without me
- 2:14:51thinking about it in the front of my
- 2:14:53mind they say alright I've got it I
- 2:14:55don't need to do so much work up here
- 2:14:56all right yeah of course I'll hold on
- 2:14:58right cuz I'm controlling the weapon and
- 2:14:59the recoil and I want it flipping up
- 2:15:01right but I've got this doing all this
- 2:15:02boom and this hand says man I feel I
- 2:15:05feel secure here I feel secure what
- 2:15:07happens when you feel secure your home
- 2:15:09in your bed if you is up nervous you
- 2:15:11wouldn't never sleep in your bed right
- 2:15:12you get in your bed you get in your
- 2:15:13comfort zone you're secure this hand is
- 2:15:15told by this hand I'm secure now look at
- 2:15:18this grip I got boom boom and now this
- 2:15:20hand feels like I can just do it I'm
- 2:15:21supposed to do which is operate this
- 2:15:23trigger finger and have high and tight
- 2:15:26on the gun which is already there when I
- 2:15:28grab the gun right
- 2:15:29and that whip in my hand so work on that
- 2:15:31gross motor that big muscle some of you
- 2:15:34uh you're shooting like this I see the
- 2:15:36gun higher than your elbows that tells
- 2:15:38me that you're using all this muscle to
- 2:15:41control that gun maybe a little bit of
- 2:15:42this but I'm not using this to my
- 2:15:45advantage it's not a lot of muscle right
- 2:15:48we talked about gripping I don't want to
- 2:15:50grip here isolating my most I don't want
- 2:15:52to be against the wall doing the curls
- 2:15:53if I'm just trying to get the weight up
- 2:15:55and I'm not worried about you know
- 2:15:57cutting up my arms or whatever I just
- 2:15:59want to get the weight up so I just want
- 2:16:01to grip it however I need to grip it
- 2:16:02I've already got all the the
- 2:16:04fundamentals of grip and stance down you
- 2:16:06know thinking about that stuff I'm
- 2:16:08athletic
- 2:16:08now stop letting these guys do all the
- 2:16:10work uh-huh okay and then the fingers
- 2:16:13say oh I feel that I feel that pressure
- 2:16:15and they say well [ __ ] I don't have to
- 2:16:16do so much all right now I can just
- 2:16:19relax and I can do this
- 2:16:21tink tink follow me so work on the week
- 2:16:24what you're doing it whatever hands
- 2:16:26you're all fans I'm using left-handed
- 2:16:27bring that elbow up just a little bit
- 2:16:28I'm not saying flare you ain't gonna be
- 2:16:30like this right you know that's called
- 2:16:32because that brings more into the muscle
- 2:16:33part again where I'm
- 2:16:34fighting it I'm squeezing real hard here
- 2:16:36I'm just boom twisting into my gun a
- 2:16:39little bit my thumb's still downrange
- 2:16:40and this hand says uh-uh I feel very
- 2:16:42secure I just do my job right here
- 2:16:46follow me make a little sense all right
- 2:16:48because once you become we start doing
- 2:16:50more drills at you and you're having to
- 2:16:51shoot quicker you're gonna either things
- 2:16:54are gonna start happening like slapping
- 2:16:55because you're not thinking about those
- 2:16:57small things and it's already built in
- 2:16:58you're just looking at the big gross
- 2:17:00motor to move it and all this is already
- 2:17:03in place so I come here I'm ready to
- 2:17:05fight boom boom boom boom boom I don't
- 2:17:06have to think about anything because I'm
- 2:17:08locked in all I need to think about is
- 2:17:10what's in front of me
- 2:17:11and where I'm putting my bullets this is
- 2:17:14take care of taking care of itself
- 2:17:16wait make a little sense heck yeah so
- 2:17:19just work on it man just we're gonna
- 2:17:20fighting pistol combat shooting you're
- 2:17:23doing it for a reason getting a good
- 2:17:25position well I can take anything else
- 2:17:27it's like if it's all you could be I
- 2:17:32tell people all the time as long as I
- 2:17:33can get my gun out safely and present it
- 2:17:36and put it somewhere on a body I don't
- 2:17:38have to be the best shooter in the world
- 2:17:39as long as I've composed enough to do
- 2:17:40that and keep things steady and have a
- 2:17:42good grip right I can get the job done
- 2:17:44not everybody can train all the time but
- 2:17:47at least get to that point all right so
- 2:17:51that administrative load we talked about
- 2:17:52it briefly that high grip magazine in my
- 2:17:57hand we're about to go over loading and
- 2:17:59after this drill seat lock tug not just
- 2:18:05seat lock tug who's done this after
- 2:18:09loading we've all done it if you say no
- 2:18:11you're higher seat lock tug cycle
- 2:18:16however you have to do it right then
- 2:18:20press check
- 2:18:21visually inspect tap tap guys tell me
- 2:18:25that stupid you're stupid if you say
- 2:18:27it's stupid little tap tap thumb check
- 2:18:29the back of the slide see that thumb
- 2:18:33check finger up here holster unloading
- 2:18:37remove the source of ammunition store it
- 2:18:39on your body cycle cycle cycle lock it
- 2:18:42back visually and physically inspect
- 2:18:45look away look back
- 2:18:48slide forward hammer down if you got one
- 2:18:50thumb check reholster just like we
- 2:18:54didn't go over that and I apologize
- 2:18:56something on the press check whatever
- 2:18:59please some people have you know various
- 2:19:01extreme opinions on press checking press
- 2:19:04checking if you don't know means you're
- 2:19:05just pulling the slide back a little bit
- 2:19:07looking for the brass is everybody know
- 2:19:08what pressure the chamber they call it a
- 2:19:09press check right because I'm kind of
- 2:19:11pressing and checking I'm not doing it
- 2:19:12when my barrel pointed here I'm not on
- 2:19:14the end of my gun either
- 2:19:14remember that y'all know that stuff so
- 2:19:17people say hey that's stupid to do that
- 2:19:19you should you just loaded it you know
- 2:19:21it's in there alright or you got the
- 2:19:24little indent like on a Glock has a
- 2:19:25little identify err that you can tactile
- 2:19:28identifiers to let you know that there's
- 2:19:30a round in the chamber right but we want
- 2:19:32them to be positive about what we know
- 2:19:34right it's way I look at it you know we
- 2:19:36shooting at night or in between drills
- 2:19:38maybe you went and did something else
- 2:19:39you got some coffee you don't remember
- 2:19:41what condition your weapon was in and
- 2:19:42one thing that I always abide by as
- 2:19:45always know the condition of your weapon
- 2:19:46you treat every weapon as if it's loaded
- 2:19:47but for the actual drill it does
- 2:19:49actually have to be loaded right right
- 2:19:52on y'all had a dead man's gun earlier at
- 2:19:55least two of you I've seen you out here
- 2:19:56and went I'm like oh slap rack so you
- 2:20:00slap tracked it and went through but
- 2:20:01you're a surprise know the condition of
- 2:20:03your weapon so if I'm having used my
- 2:20:05weapon in a little bit and I pull it out
- 2:20:07like I haven't shot this and yet I know
- 2:20:08I loaded it earlier I can check there
- 2:20:10all right I got I got brass I'm good to
- 2:20:13go I know I'm ready for the drill now
- 2:20:15follow me so press check makes sense
- 2:20:17administrative Lee correct in a gunfight
- 2:20:21no but on that note now that we all know
- 2:20:25that anybody with a dead gun from
- 2:20:27henceforth if you draw out and press the
- 2:20:29trigger and it goes click you're doing
- 2:20:3110 push-ups or 25 jumping jacks
- 2:20:33if you refuse to you're a [ __ ] and
- 2:20:35we're all gonna call you [ __ ] that's it
- 2:20:37fair I always know the condition of your
- 2:20:39gun ready you know what
- 2:20:42downrange I'm gonna do this one time for
- 2:20:44you
- 2:20:49and talk about physical check to Mickey
- 2:20:55good master grip
- 2:20:58seat black tug cycle press check press
- 2:21:04check I could also come this way feel
- 2:21:07what's going on it's dark out I just
- 2:21:08want to make sure that you guys fully
- 2:21:10appreciate why we're doing this with me
- 2:21:12hammer down if you got a safety like a
- 2:21:141911 safety an thumb check reholster why
- 2:21:18am i thumb checking the slide
- 2:21:20anybody thumb checking it for numerous
- 2:21:23reasons if something was to fall into my
- 2:21:25holster
- 2:21:25I would physically feel the slide come
- 2:21:28out of battery that's a good thing to
- 2:21:29know because if my guns out of battery I
- 2:21:31pull it out what will happen nothing why
- 2:21:35else
- 2:21:35mentally shooting grip definitely not a
- 2:21:39good firing grip if I fired this would
- 2:21:40not be like a great way to fire besides
- 2:21:42the fact that it may stretch my thumb
- 2:21:43guns only gonna work one time so this is
- 2:21:46me mentally just like when we unload and
- 2:21:49I told you look away you guys all heard
- 2:21:51me say that this is me mentally
- 2:21:53disconnecting done firing sequence over
- 2:21:56play time over fight time over all I'm
- 2:21:58worried about now is safely putting a
- 2:22:00loaded weapon in my holster this is like
- 2:22:03the professional [ __ ] you watch people
- 2:22:05do and you're like yeah that kind of
- 2:22:06knows what's up see people are just like
- 2:22:09being willy-nilly you know they don't
- 2:22:11know what's up or they did know what's
- 2:22:13up and they don't give a [ __ ] enough to
- 2:22:14do it unloading sorry remove the source
- 2:22:19of ammunition notice what I didn't do I
- 2:22:23saw one of you do it earlier I don't
- 2:22:25care sometimes we're all guilty of it 15
- 2:22:27cents don't the thing to the deck cycle
- 2:22:29cycle cycle lock the slide back visually
- 2:22:32and physically inspect the chamber look
- 2:22:33away look back done
- 2:22:35slide forward hammer down thumb check
- 2:22:38reholster tracking why don't we roll the
- 2:22:45gun over and dump that round into our
- 2:22:48hand why am i not doing this
- 2:22:50[Music]
- 2:22:51well can't do that but also got an
- 2:22:55ejector all of these guns have an
- 2:22:56ejector your Glocks have it your MMP has
- 2:22:59it your Springfield that thinks just
- 2:23:01about the right size to get pushed into
- 2:23:03the firing pin of around could it not be
- 2:23:05conceivable that this Kirk could get
- 2:23:07jammed in there sideways with that
- 2:23:09firing pin against that that goes
- 2:23:11forward when that happens this does not
- 2:23:13send the bullet downrange it grenades in
- 2:23:15your hand blows chunks of meat off we'll
- 2:23:18do this we're gonna work a little bit on
- 2:23:21single handed shooting one hand the
- 2:23:23other hand and then from there we're
- 2:23:25gonna go into some reloading stuff from
- 2:23:27henceforth today if your gun goes empty
- 2:23:29in this hand reload with that hand
- 2:23:32figure out how to dump the mag if it
- 2:23:34goes empty in this hand so for me if I'm
- 2:23:36here I'm dragging I may from across my
- 2:23:38body right don't cheat yourself because
- 2:23:41if you're training with this hand
- 2:23:42there's a very slim margin where you
- 2:23:46could say well I'm using my off hand
- 2:23:47because I'm trying to keep myself behind
- 2:23:49cover and you follow yes or no yes you
- 2:23:53know but most of the time it would be
- 2:23:55due to what injury or your other hand
- 2:23:56for some reason being preoccupied so
- 2:23:58don't put the gun back in the other hand
- 2:24:01to try to figure it out got it so we'll
- 2:24:04get out of here
- 2:24:05so you're saying with that hand you can
- 2:24:07hit the slot or the vaguely figure it
- 2:24:09out but you're not doing it one hand
- 2:24:11like yeah it's not a one-handed reload
- 2:24:14you know I want to clean your legs and
- 2:24:16all that yeah yeah thank you thank you C
- 2:24:18for clarifying that did it right back to
- 2:24:21what we did this morning of group
- 2:24:23shooting except now we're gonna
- 2:24:24manipulate strong hand non-dominant hand
- 2:24:28weak and left hand right hand whatever
- 2:24:31you want to call the one that you don't
- 2:24:32write with with both well then okay so
- 2:24:38quite simply we're gonna draw fingers to
- 2:24:40the locator position what do you got to
- 2:24:42do to get the gun from one hand to
- 2:24:43another just safely get it in the other
- 2:24:44hand that's it there's guys that teach
- 2:24:47allowing the gun to fall forward like
- 2:24:49this so that you can open up a space in
- 2:24:54the back strap to put your hand into and
- 2:24:57there's dudes that teach keeping your
- 2:25:00fingers tight and just handing it off I
- 2:25:03think this is one of those
- 2:25:05things that's like not that difficult
- 2:25:07don't do that don't overthink it
- 2:25:10finger off the trigger keep enough
- 2:25:12positive control that you can get it
- 2:25:14from one hand to the other
- 2:25:15you know it's not like weird [ __ ] like
- 2:25:19that so we're going to have you guys get
- 2:25:20it to the other hand we're gonna just
- 2:25:22shoot some groups strong hand we can
- 2:25:27we'll give you a little finite aiming
- 2:25:29point again with it we got a marker you
- 2:25:31get a marker okay you want to be able to
- 2:25:33use that sheet of paper yeah just go
- 2:25:35right in the middle of it just put a
- 2:25:37little little three quarter inch squares
- 2:25:43we're not going to do this long because
- 2:25:45this is one of those things that you got
- 2:25:47to spend a lot of time on to become
- 2:25:49proficient draw transfer the gun to your
- 2:25:52other hand transfer back try it a few
- 2:25:56times pay attention to what you're doing
- 2:25:58is as you go back and forth do you guys
- 2:26:02have to like manipulate it or can you
- 2:26:04get it cleanly and like if I have to
- 2:26:06grab the gun and I end up with a grip
- 2:26:07like that and then have to do [ __ ] to
- 2:26:09get it into a good firing position
- 2:26:11that's not what I want I wanted to go
- 2:26:13right where she needs to go tracking all
- 2:26:16right
- 2:26:16so in your non-dominant hand let's do
- 2:26:21one magazine this is totally for
- 2:26:23accuracy that little dot all the same
- 2:26:26mechanics I'm gonna let you do it as you
- 2:26:28do it and then I'm going to talk to you
- 2:26:30about how to get better at it hold back
- 2:26:35hey go home mag nice and slow
- 2:26:49the finger out son like that pull the
- 2:26:52finger back a little bit yeah all right
- 2:26:55hey one thing I notice right off the bat
- 2:26:57when you go to your other hand that
- 2:26:58you're not used to shooting with all the
- 2:27:00time some of you didn't think about one
- 2:27:03important thing how your trigger finger
- 2:27:06is on the trigger right a lot of you are
- 2:27:09missing right away because you switched
- 2:27:11but you went straight in you just got a
- 2:27:13big grip on this thing some figures
- 2:27:15fingers were sticking out about this far
- 2:27:16now the more you got on that trigger
- 2:27:19more you're wrapped through it the more
- 2:27:20you're going to manipulate that gun
- 2:27:21right because you're using that whole
- 2:27:22big hand a muscle to pull that trigger
- 2:27:25you still got to go to that sweet spot
- 2:27:28whether it be all the way through or
- 2:27:30wherever it's sweet for you mine's all
- 2:27:31you know kind of out towards the middle
- 2:27:33of my last part of my digit there that
- 2:27:36last knuckle right so think about that
- 2:27:38even with the other hand still comes
- 2:27:39into play and think about this I don't
- 2:27:42know if you've heard this before you
- 2:27:43probably have pressing the trigger back
- 2:27:45straight towards your nose I'm trying to
- 2:27:47put pull not yank that trigger this way
- 2:27:49or push it that way I'm pressing it
- 2:27:51straight back to me like I'm pushing it
- 2:27:54to my nose like this boom boom all right
- 2:27:57so still got to work that trigger finger
- 2:27:59even though it's the other hand some of
- 2:28:02you were missing right off the bat with
- 2:28:03that because you're just hooking that
- 2:28:04thing through there like a big meat hook
- 2:28:06the old meat hook what are you gonna
- 2:28:08point out Nick
- 2:28:09so without throwing your gun
- 2:28:12downrange press out like you got your
- 2:28:14gun in your hand two-handed whatever
- 2:28:17your non-dominant hand is without moving
- 2:28:20anything just take it away so would
- 2:28:24stand to reason that that should be
- 2:28:26about what it looks like when you have
- 2:28:27one hand the only thing that you may
- 2:28:29want to do is put more weight behind it
- 2:28:32what's shooting oh we're a big pile of
- 2:28:35meat meat is mass in order to control
- 2:28:37the gun I want my mass behind the gun if
- 2:28:39I go like this and try to shoot it's
- 2:28:41gonna be a lot more difficult than if
- 2:28:43I'm like this so rather than this I just
- 2:28:45put my weight behind the gun right two
- 2:28:48hands one hand something that you might
- 2:28:50want to try here here it's allowing that
- 2:28:55recoil impulse
- 2:28:56to come back towards you a lot of dudes
- 2:28:58trained this this canting inboard this
- 2:29:04is okay and I used to teach this a lot
- 2:29:06but what happens now is the recoil
- 2:29:08impulse wants to go like this I want
- 2:29:11this for a lot of reasons there's
- 2:29:13nothing wrong with this and I will catch
- 2:29:14myself quickly shooting like that what
- 2:29:16happens though with our measuring tool
- 2:29:18now it'd be 45 degrees or something up
- 2:29:21and down is no longer up and down and
- 2:29:23left and right is no longer left and
- 2:29:25right so windage and elevation are all
- 2:29:26skewed so you're trying to line [ __ ] up
- 2:29:28and you're missing and you're like I'm
- 2:29:29right there well you might have to like
- 2:29:32do some screwing around to get hits this
- 2:29:35distance it doesn't matter we start
- 2:29:37trying to shoot like steel or something
- 2:29:39out there and your canted that's
- 2:29:41normally bueno yeah you're used to
- 2:29:43seeing the gun this way and catching
- 2:29:45that sight back up why not keep it the
- 2:29:47same yeah less thanks for you to adapt
- 2:29:49to write and you say well Z said put
- 2:29:52your elbow out well that's when you're
- 2:29:53having two opposing forces right you're
- 2:29:56pressing against each other out here
- 2:29:57there's no reason to do this because I'm
- 2:29:58not pressing against anything here so do
- 2:30:02this guy's
- 2:30:03take your weak hand away off hand
- 2:30:06non-dominant hand whatever leg is in
- 2:30:09front of the firing arm step forward I
- 2:30:11don't want to like make this complicated
- 2:30:13but I'm gonna set you up with a good
- 2:30:15platform now shift your weight on to
- 2:30:17that front leg cuz now we're being able
- 2:30:18to control the recoil better pull that
- 2:30:22elbow in slightly we're gonna line the
- 2:30:24sights up slack out same thing that we
- 2:30:27were doing I'm gonna try that again so
- 2:30:31I'm gonna walk you through it by the
- 2:30:32numbers press out you guys I didn't
- 2:30:39really see any dots disappear you didn't
- 2:30:41shoot them away so let's aim back at
- 2:30:42that dot get rid of your non-dominant
- 2:30:46hand step forward with the leg that's
- 2:30:50underneath the gun what you think about
- 2:30:53that so far how's that feel a little
- 2:30:54weird a little not weird
- 2:30:56take your offhand dudes look at me
- 2:30:58without taking your gun off target and
- 2:31:00bring it up to your chest here belly
- 2:31:02chest sternum somewhere right there and
- 2:31:04just make yourself strong make yourself
- 2:31:07a good heavy meat pile a big meat
- 2:31:09stick so to speak is that weird take
- 2:31:13your elbow pull it underneath slightly
- 2:31:16line your sights up get the slack out of
- 2:31:18your trigger
- 2:31:19I should he right now here all these
- 2:31:21triggers going get the slack out slowly
- 2:31:24and gently press straight back to your
- 2:31:26nose or I for you for you left hand
- 2:31:32shooters did your shot go low right for
- 2:31:34you righties did your shot go a little
- 2:31:36left try it again
- 2:31:39get the slack out put your weight
- 2:31:41forward once you bend and front knee so
- 2:31:48that you're not up on your toe go ahead
- 2:31:53[Applause]
- 2:31:55go ahead run through that man think
- 2:31:57about what you're doing slap out there's
- 2:32:05no dumb question I mean it could be
- 2:32:06really dumb go ahead okay when I shoot
- 2:32:08with my left
- 2:32:09do I need to alternate eyes or can I
- 2:32:11shoot with my dominant awesome question
- 2:32:14I only see out of my left eye so I'm
- 2:32:18only using that eye if you guys are
- 2:32:20shooting mm-hmm keep your bolt your eyes
- 2:32:24open I see some of you closing and we
- 2:32:26didn't talk to you deep about that
- 2:32:27because the end of the day I'm not gonna
- 2:32:29stop you from doing that in a couple
- 2:32:31days try not to do it you go like I
- 2:32:33can't I see two things you can't cuz you
- 2:32:35say you can't you can't because you're
- 2:32:36not going to undergoing a little bit of
- 2:32:38discomfort guys don't load all those
- 2:32:39mags you need one empty from a tactical
- 2:32:46standpoint though if I was using this as
- 2:32:49a wall that was cover and I wouldn't
- 2:32:52wanted this to get a little bit out
- 2:32:53autumn behind from behind cover if I
- 2:32:58decided I wanted to use my right I don't
- 2:33:00have to stick a lot more of my noggin
- 2:33:01out so I mean you could start to have
- 2:33:04that discussion but you should be
- 2:33:06forcing yourself just like I just told
- 2:33:07you to reload with your opposite hand
- 2:33:09make both your eyes work point in case
- 2:33:13here we are in the jail and we're
- 2:33:15scrapping you know I just poked you in
- 2:33:17your eyeball it's not my good eye for
- 2:33:19shooting we're gonna bug fly in your eye
- 2:33:21or a little piece of dirt
- 2:33:23the tears are pouring you can't you're
- 2:33:25trying to now you're gonna see to fight
- 2:33:29with that no man use your other right
- 2:33:31well if you don't already use two eyes
- 2:33:32and you're just using one I'll still do
- 2:33:35that like if I'm shooting at that 73
- 2:33:37yarder I'll split one eye and use one
- 2:33:41and use my dominant eye you're up close
- 2:33:43like this do a combat shooting it you're
- 2:33:45not used to it yet just try to squint
- 2:33:46one don't eat don't close it all the way
- 2:33:47just kind of squint it where the other
- 2:33:49one takes over you should already know
- 2:33:50your dominant eye by now I know some
- 2:33:52people shoot right-handed and they got
- 2:33:53left eye dominant so they have to can't
- 2:33:55a little bit like this or whatever
- 2:33:56whatever it takes that's fine but just
- 2:33:58try to practice a little bit squint a
- 2:34:00little bit just to ease that one off and
- 2:34:02try to get both eyes in in the in play
- 2:34:05there another thing what do you as
- 2:34:07you're shooting with one hand what are
- 2:34:10some of the marksmanship thoughts that
- 2:34:13you have about what you're doing
- 2:34:15you got trigger squeeze right you're
- 2:34:17thinking about we already mentioned
- 2:34:18trigger squeeze right we're talking
- 2:34:19about pulling it straight back to your
- 2:34:21face getting the right spot for your
- 2:34:22trigger finger at first right you got to
- 2:34:24be set up for success what else is
- 2:34:26something that's a little more prominent
- 2:34:30when you're shooting with one hand do
- 2:34:31you think grip is one what grip is going
- 2:34:36to be pretty much what it is right
- 2:34:38you're not over gripping and you're not
- 2:34:39doing this you're getting enough grip so
- 2:34:42you're not your fingers aren't too
- 2:34:43sympathetic to the trigger finger
- 2:34:45but anticipation you know what
- 2:34:47anticipation is right you're looking at
- 2:34:49it and you're like I'm pulling the
- 2:34:50trigger and for me shooting one-handed
- 2:34:53especially with my offhand my
- 2:34:55non-dominant hand I tend to be it's
- 2:34:58harder for me to hold it on target some
- 2:35:00reason whatever and I I'm trying to
- 2:35:02ambush that trigger or pull that trigger
- 2:35:04press that trigger at a certain time
- 2:35:06like I do with my right hand and I can't
- 2:35:08do it so I'm a little bit longer so I'm
- 2:35:10a little more I'm kind of anticipating
- 2:35:11in my head I'm like it's about to golf
- 2:35:13it's about to go off and I can't control
- 2:35:14the the blast like I do with my right
- 2:35:18hand because you never really ambush it
- 2:35:20and make it do what you want it's kind
- 2:35:21of you control it to make it go off at a
- 2:35:25certain time whether it be a millisecond
- 2:35:27or whatever right you kind of control it
- 2:35:29into that this hand you want to uh y'all
- 2:35:32feel that
- 2:35:33you notice it look at some your targets
- 2:35:35you think that's from anticipate
- 2:35:37this one for sure not picking on you but
- 2:35:40it's getting into it right kind of
- 2:35:43pushing down you're all over the place
- 2:35:45you you anticipate a couple things going
- 2:35:48on there but think about that
- 2:35:50anticipation is going to be more
- 2:35:52prominent using one hand just like that
- 2:35:54trigger finger because you don't have
- 2:35:56anything to offset that you just got
- 2:35:58what you got sitting out there boom so
- 2:36:01think about those things take them into
- 2:36:03account let's try it again
- 2:36:05we're going to draw you're gonna give me
- 2:36:07to one strong hand only to one ready and
- 2:36:12then what's gonna happen I've it's not
- 2:36:13fast what happens after that last shot
- 2:36:17sight picture where's your finger when
- 2:36:20you're getting that final sight picture
- 2:36:21on the trigger slack out ready to can
- 2:36:24smoke them don't ever tell anybody I
- 2:36:27said that but that's what you're doing
- 2:36:28you're waiting making you know you can
- 2:36:30tell people I said hey if you're
- 2:36:31pointing at this and you get that last
- 2:36:33sight picture with your trigger to the
- 2:36:35wall you've let it out reset it and it
- 2:36:39goes off what happened is that bad you
- 2:36:45shot again but you're on the range to to
- 2:36:47get good at that right so let that come
- 2:36:49out reset that trigger like some of you
- 2:36:51guys that were creeping steal let it out
- 2:36:52reset it then we cover to the hole

- 2:40:31if I reload or I do an admin load I'm
- 2:40:35always wanting to come from here don't
- 2:40:38just willy-nilly like I'm touching a mag
- 2:40:40that's good come from mag pouch one
- 2:40:42chances are most of us are only gonna
- 2:40:43have one on us has a off-duty cop or a
- 2:40:47civilian which again I will reiterate a
- 2:40:50police officers civilian for all you law
- 2:40:53enforcement officers are like a civilian
- 2:40:55out of the room
- 2:40:57Clark that's good if you remove this
- 2:41:08magazine and put it in your gun
- 2:41:10replenish that mag pouch if you do a
- 2:41:14tactical reload and have one that's now
- 2:41:16got like five rounds in it put it in the
- 2:41:18back so now I know
- 2:41:19full full a few left to save my skin
- 2:41:22right make sense again just like a

- 2:41:54all discombobulated and like I knew this
- 2:41:57dude that always liked these pole so
- 2:41:59he'd always pull them out of a pocket
- 2:42:01here and I wouldn't do that in real life
- 2:42:04I'd pull from here aren't you pulling
- 2:42:06from here why you keep putting them in
- 2:42:07your pocket down here cuz he just like
- 2:42:09thought like he'll leave those for when
- 2:42:11he really needs them and then these
- 2:42:13he'll pull from what's he gonna do when
- 2:42:15he's really fighting
- 2:42:15yes stupid guys got your empty mag
- 2:42:19here's how we hold a magazine to reload
- 2:42:22bullet tip there's a few people I know
- 2:42:24that carry a magazine like this with
- 2:42:27bullet tips facing towards your [ __ ]
- 2:42:29bullet tips normally should be facing
- 2:42:31towards your penis or vagina okay
- 2:42:35if you're if it sits facing like this
- 2:42:37when you go to grab the mag you got to
- 2:42:40grab it you got to take your hand and
- 2:42:42rotate backwards to retrieve it to come
- 2:42:45up we're this that's all I'm doing
- 2:42:48coming to here some dudes have a hard
- 2:42:51time with that I mean it's not very
- 2:42:52difficult but be very methodical now
- 2:42:54speed think about clean so we'll set
- 2:43:00this up empty mag get up on the line
- 2:43:02zzzz wants to demo it alright so
- 2:43:06basically you set up your gun so you
- 2:43:08have a slide lock reload right so we
- 2:43:10want to slide lock reload every time so
- 2:43:12I loaded my gun press check it's ready

- 2:50:48slide lock back because I know it's not
- 2:50:49right it's I I can see it locked back if
- 2:50:52you dry fire enough and shoot enough you
- 2:50:55will see that sight three four inches
- 2:50:57closer to you just push the button and
- 2:50:59come right back in and do what you got
- 2:51:00to do it do it while it's vertical that
- 2:51:02mag has a weight in it these empty ones
- 2:51:04drop even slower which is why a lot of
- 2:51:06dudes will use weighted mag bases a lot
- 2:51:09of guys feeling like they have to do
- 2:51:11that you don't have to if you just are
- 2:51:12pushing the damn button while gravity's
- 2:51:14gonna let it happen try it slower aim it
- 2:51:17downrange downrange look I don't do that
- 2:51:20just because I've done it this way for
- 2:51:23so long right I don't keep it straight
- 2:51:25up and down
- 2:51:26I might immediately come back to my
- 2:51:28workspace but what I do is always take

- 3:07:37hands draw face downrange while your
- 3:07:41muzzles downrange start moving to your
- 3:07:43right and engage that first piece of
- 3:07:45steel with two hits
- 3:07:46keep moving finger off the children's
- 3:07:49are moving if you miss just kind of

- 3:08:41target while we're moving pay attention
- 3:08:43to how weird it is twerking like that go
- 3:08:46ahead start moving shoot while you're
- 3:08:50moving shoot while you're moving shoot
- 3:08:52while you're moving to hit shoot while
- 3:08:57you're loaded don't stop shoot while
- 3:08:59you're moving while you're moving if you
- 3:09:01miss there's no static shooting in the
- 3:09:05string no static shooting kinda kind of
- 3:09:16weird you want to plant right this
- 3:09:19vertex jackets really doing an awesome
- 3:09:21job of keeping me dry shoot move shoot
- 3:09:27move
- 3:09:30[Applause]
- 3:09:33go faster keep moving keep walking
- 3:09:42downrange though who's up I've got a
- 3:09:53full maggot in total exercise and
- 3:09:55watching that site bouncing when you see
- 3:09:58it traverse the steel pop the shot off
- 3:10:00let's go shoot leave it on the end
- 3:10:04dragon almost put a fool man here you go
- 3:10:17keep going
- 3:10:18[Music]

- 3:10:22holster up should we wait a minute
- 3:10:29should we just should winged do you want
- 3:10:32to get soaked or you want to keep going
- 3:10:35fast
- 3:10:39sugar mill
- 3:10:43I could do we can run a drill from here
- 3:10:45just moving Bing Bing
- 3:10:47okay so this is what's happening it's
- 3:10:53pouring rain these out here addressing
- 3:10:56some targets the sky Vic
- 3:10:58they call him the operator at the PD
- 3:11:00that he works at I've been calling him
- 3:11:03Clark Gable oh my gosh
- 3:11:12ineffective
- 3:11:23all right come back under full bag all
- 3:11:26right ready go

- 3:12:31a lot of water out there we have alright
- 3:12:39some two and each only take as much time
- 3:12:40as you need to try to keep moving
- 3:12:42ready go keep moving you come back keep
- 3:12:53moving
- 3:12:58give my cover
- 3:12:59relative cover looks like movie rain
- 3:13:05okay tell me it falling on the ground
- 3:13:20okay guys I think we might have like a
- 3:13:22storm here this could possibly be a
- 3:13:25storm like is this the eyewall it's just
- 3:13:33stop train I just stopped raining and
- 3:13:35just started getting windy are we about
- 3:13:36to die that's a funnel you see a photo
- 3:13:48it's happening we're literally watching
- 3:13:51three ball over radar sailors we check
- 3:13:55the radar real quick in the Red Sea box
- 3:14:05lat right
- 3:14:18figure out the trigger when you bring it
- 3:14:20back bring out the trigger when you
- 3:14:36bring it back up get an angle awesome
- 3:14:58real Oh get it last night stand by go
- 3:15:07keep your moving gotta get another loan
- 3:15:30nope gonna have to get you guys out of
- 3:15:33these wet clothes right away who's up
- 3:15:45good you're good
- 3:15:46[Applause]
- 3:15:50gasps Rupp not to beat a dead horse we
- 3:15:55went over it a little bit but there's
- 3:15:58this techniques to moving right I come
- 3:16:01from the combat background or the
- 3:16:02soldier type combat background so we
- 3:16:05learn a certain way to do things doing
- 3:16:07CQB close quarters battle or CQC close
- 3:16:10quarters combat whatever you might call
- 3:16:11it when some people do are the step
- 3:16:15slide right that works until you start
- 3:16:19doing it into a house clearing our
- 3:16:20structure clearing scenario right
- 3:16:22because you can't do that and then if
- 3:16:24you shoot with your bad side you you
- 3:16:27tend to go backwards a little bit right
- 3:16:29start doing this do we ever want to go
- 3:16:32into a gunfight backwards I might not
- 3:16:35know the answer to that but I'll tell
- 3:16:36you that
- 3:16:37most likely not you don't want to go
- 3:16:39into a gunfight backwards I don't want
- 3:16:40to go into a entrance of structure or do
- 3:16:42away anything like that without facing
- 3:16:46what's going on right if I was a
- 3:16:48professional I would have body armor on
- 3:16:49I want my body armor presented towards
- 3:16:51the bad guy and I also want to be aware
- 3:16:53of what's going on in front of me right
- 3:16:54so if I go in like this I don't know
- 3:16:56what's going on I'll run into something
- 3:16:57right possibly throw me off so the trick
- 3:17:00to this is if I shoot an offhanded like
- 3:17:02I'm walking this way I'm right-handed
- 3:17:03right for a right hander it's easy for
- 3:17:05me to shoot this way easier than this
- 3:17:06way anyway right all right my body's
- 3:17:08automatically candid I keep my toes
- 3:17:10pointed pointed towards the direction
- 3:17:12that I'm going and I've been my knees
- 3:17:13all right if you try to stand straight
- 3:17:15up and do this it's hard to bend at the
- 3:17:18torso so I'll bend my knees get more of
- 3:17:21a fighting stance you go to the beer let
- 3:17:25me shake let me see you see the radar
- 3:17:29let's recap what we've been working on
- 3:17:32all day yeah once finish talking that
- 3:17:33walking about what but then I walk in
- 3:17:36well then laterally kind of that's where
- 3:17:38the next drill will take us this needs
- 3:17:44to be fast not this right so when you're
- 3:17:47coming into a room say I come into this
- 3:17:48room moving laterally we call it moving
- 3:17:51laterally moving in depth or moving in
- 3:17:53whip with we were moving in width out
- 3:17:55there right width of the targets I'm
- 3:17:58moving in depth we're moving down a
- 3:17:59corridor basically and you got
- 3:18:01Yatta Yatta Yatta to left and right so
- 3:18:03moving in width say my targets over
- 3:18:05there where drew is or where Tim is on
- 3:18:07that back wall and I'm right-handed like
- 3:18:09I said so I'm shooting right-handed I
- 3:18:11have to twist my torso a little bit more
- 3:18:13to get my right hand involved unless I
- 3:18:15switch hands kind of like Ben did on the
- 3:18:17drill alright I don't like to switch
- 3:18:19hands unless I have to follow me so if
- 3:18:26I'm going from here to there shooting
- 3:18:29here behind you guys I'm bending my feet
- 3:18:32my knees and my feet are still trying to
- 3:18:34stay in the direction that I'm moving I
- 3:18:35never want to be like this and the
- 3:18:37reason that comes into play is like not
- 3:18:39so much to play an individual clearing
- 3:18:40like if you're a police officer
- 3:18:41responding to something you go in and
- 3:18:43you're by yourself it's not that big a
- 3:18:45deal but when you're going with multiple
- 3:18:46people you have to kind of keep a steady
- 3:18:49flow and move similarly or else you get
- 3:18:52all bunched up it's just like a football
- 3:18:53team if the tight end is doing this and
- 3:18:56I'm doing this other play while the
- 3:18:57guards pulling or whatever people don't
- 3:18:59know what they're doing they're not
- 3:19:00working together on the same place [ __ ]
- 3:19:01alright so I'm walking this way I can't
- 3:19:04keep a steady movement bending boom boom
- 3:19:07boom boom boom and this is a little fast
- 3:19:10even you know you can only move and pull
- 3:19:13the trigger as fast as you can
- 3:19:14accurately shoot alright so if I'm going
- 3:19:16this way Bend then same thing
- 3:19:21so see how everything's kind of bent
- 3:19:23it's kind of I guess it's it's a what's
- 3:19:28the word I'm looking for exaggerated
- 3:19:29it's exaggerated a little bit you've
- 3:19:31been in so this combat stance or this
- 3:19:33fighter stance that I'm in it
- 3:19:34exaggerated when I move because I'm
- 3:19:36giving myself a shock system alright
- 3:19:38even if I move backwards I move kind of
- 3:19:41controlled all right never want to slide
- 3:19:43and I don't want to do this right and
- 3:19:47cross the potential for tripping is a
- 3:19:49lot higher here
- 3:19:50alright so you bend your knees keep your
- 3:19:53toes pointed towards where you're going
- 3:19:54and twist at your torso make sense my
- 3:19:58hands it doesn't matter I know the
- 3:19:59platform that I need to make an accurate
- 3:20:01shot I know how to line up my sights our
- 3:20:03point shoot because I'm probably
- 3:20:05shooting stage 3 or as a stage 3 or 4
- 3:20:10for the shooting levels right
- 3:20:13so I'm not really my site is never
- 3:20:16focused when I'm doing this unless I'm
- 3:20:17just like bulking real slow and like
- 3:20:19sigh I see the site and then I'm walking
- 3:20:21like that and if he was doing that he
- 3:20:23probably should just stop and shoot
- 3:20:24right if he's taking that much time
- 3:20:26might as well right and why did you keep
- 3:20:29food a lot of people say well you really
- 3:20:31can't move well it doesn't make sense in
- 3:20:34a self-defense scenario to walk in the
- 3:20:37other way besides for the rest of the
- 3:20:38time you just need to move turn and
- 3:20:40shoot and I buy into that a little bit
- 3:20:42just depends on what you're doing like I
- 3:20:44said a team environment where violence
- 3:20:46of action and speed and surprise come
- 3:20:48into play and I'm moving all together
- 3:20:49and keeping a flow has to move fluidly
- 3:20:52all right otherwise I can run and do the
- 3:20:55three gun thing boom boom boom
- 3:20:56it's more efficient looting boom
- 3:20:58stopping the shooting but I don't have
- 3:21:00that luxury in the context of clearing a
- 3:21:03house for CQB but I would argue that
- 3:21:07it's not just because you don't sue CQB
- 3:21:10or teen clearing doesn't mean it's it
- 3:21:13negates the fact that you need to have
- 3:21:16that skill I think it still drives home
- 3:21:18some of those fundamentals that we were
- 3:21:21talking about earlier just moving on the
- 3:21:23target messing that sight picture up
- 3:21:24we're kind of doing it and making you
- 3:21:26move it at the same time if you did have
- 3:21:27to move you could do it if we go into
- 3:21:29that I know eventually we're going to
- 3:21:30get into the one hand shooting and
- 3:21:32moving offline right think about my
- 3:21:35child we'd be doing it right now if he
- 3:21:37didn't bring us in here so if I had to
- 3:21:41pull my gun out active shooter down the
- 3:21:43hallway right whatever the scenario
- 3:21:46might be way way down there and I have a
- 3:21:48daughter child somebody that I'm trying
- 3:21:50to get out the way he goes either so I
- 3:21:52can save their ass like I'm a protector
- 3:21:55like doing personal protection and I'm
- 3:21:57guarding the principle or I'm just
- 3:21:59taking care of the the lives that are at
- 3:22:01stake around me or I'm just trying to
- 3:22:03move their ass out of the way so I can
- 3:22:05get to cover because they're bunched up
- 3:22:07you know funneling into a room or
- 3:22:09whatnot
- 3:22:10and I know that I can shoot effective
- 3:22:13fire at him and maybe not be super
- 3:22:15accurate because I've assists whatever
- 3:22:18and that split-second said hey it's okay
- 3:22:20for me to shoot down there there's not a
- 3:22:22lot of risk for me hitting things that I
- 3:22:25don't want to hit
- 3:22:26or I don't really care what I hit out
- 3:22:27there because there's nothing it's a big
- 3:22:29concrete wall or the desert or whatever
- 3:22:31the case may be for some reason I think
- 3:22:32I can throw effective rounds downrange
- 3:22:34suppressive fire I'll call it you never
- 3:22:37really want to do suppressive fire in a
- 3:22:39civilian atmosphere but in this
- 3:22:42situation you could so here I'm shooting
- 3:22:45and moving them offline boom boom boom
- 3:22:46boom you see what I'm doing here I'm
- 3:22:50moving moving them offline and I'm
- 3:22:51definitely don't have a level one sight
- 3:22:55picture making that right would you come
- 3:22:56lose a matter just 1 2 3 you know
- 3:22:58perfect clear I don't have the number 1
- 3:23:00sight picture I don't have a perfect
- 3:23:01focus front and rear sight or front
- 3:23:06sight I'm just moving boom boom boom I
- 3:23:08went the other way I could push these
- 3:23:10people and shoot and I'm looking
- 3:23:13basically at the back square on this gun
- 3:23:16and I'm lining what I do is I like to
- 3:23:18get bone structure alignment so instead
- 3:23:20of doing this and worrying about all
- 3:23:22this I don't care about this recoil at
- 3:23:25this point I want to get everything
- 3:23:26straight kind of lined on my face and
- 3:23:28that helps me just point shoot even
- 3:23:30better everything is kind of tight
- 3:23:32together but I'm doing this you know
- 3:23:34there's a lot more play I just want to
- 3:23:37get out there that's one way that we we
- 3:23:40teach it and I don't know how you teach
- 3:23:41it Mick but from moving side to side so
- 3:23:44moving somebody offline putting rounds
- 3:23:46downrange just until you get to a spot
- 3:23:48and then figure out what you're gonna do
- 3:23:50or if you're going to ambush this active
- 3:23:52shooter or active killer or whatever the
- 3:23:54case may be I want to get here and then
- 3:23:56wait on him get low set up for them lock
- 3:23:58the doors and run whatever you're gonna
- 3:24:00do you can get rounds downrange and then
- 3:24:02get offline does it make sense
- 3:24:05add to that make up I went on my little
- 3:24:08pedestal there why we have you doing
- 3:24:12this like shooting and moving stuff like
- 3:24:14the point isn't to be able to hit while
- 3:24:15moving while that is a point the point
- 3:24:18is to be able to learn to see what do
- 3:24:21you got to do to make the round impact
- 3:24:23the target moving or not you got to have
- 3:24:26everything lined up and you got to press
- 3:24:27the shot when everything's lined up
- 3:24:29without moving it period except I think
- 3:24:31when we think about that we think about
- 3:24:33it like there's this big thing it's a
- 3:24:35micro fraction of a second and time this
- 3:24:39has to be lined up
- 3:24:40as this happens maybe it's a quarter of
- 3:24:43a second quarter of a second how long is
- 3:24:46the human eye blink its about 0.25 to
- 3:24:490.3 oh that that's it
- 3:24:52so all you got to do is just make those
- 3:24:54couple things happen at that split
- 3:24:56second but I think that we focus on like
- 3:24:58where is it where is it where is it
- 3:25:01you don't need to so him just describing
- 3:25:04that get back using the back plate of
- 3:25:07the gun you know at these distances
- 3:25:09again point at me point at me do you
- 3:25:14think you'd hit me or get really close
- 3:25:16to me at these distances by pointing any
- 3:25:19of you guys ever shoot a bow never
- 3:25:24instinctively like even at like summer
- 3:25:27camp you know no sights that's how I
- 3:25:28shoot a bow you can draw I know a dude
- 3:25:31that could shoot pheasants in flight
- 3:25:35clay pigeons he could throw the clay
- 3:25:39pigeon hold the bow in this hand throw
- 3:25:42the clay pigeon grab an arrow and shoot
- 3:25:44a pigeon out of the air what there's a
- 3:25:48lot of mechanics happening what are you
- 3:25:50seeing I would ask him Tom what are you
- 3:25:52seeing seeing the pigeon everything else
- 3:25:54was just him that's the same thing we're
- 3:25:56doing with these guns you ever shoot a
- 3:25:58basketball and it's just like you ever
- 3:26:00throw the basketball and as it leaves
- 3:26:01your hands you're like that's gonna be a
- 3:26:03swish you know microsecond thing in your
- 3:26:06brain you know and then you watch it
- 3:26:08drop right through right because your
- 3:26:10brain you recognize for a second all the
- 3:26:14computations were correct and you just
- 3:26:16let it happen and that's what we're
- 3:26:18talking about so then when we add in
- 3:26:20like I like to look at this stuff
- 3:26:22mechanics versus tactics or strategy
- 3:26:25depending on how you want to phrase it
- 3:26:27the mechanical stuff you're trusting
- 3:26:30that you're going to get that hit and
- 3:26:31then it happens as we go back out here
- 3:26:34and we start going one hand or the other
- 3:26:36it comes down to you really isolating
- 3:26:39everything that's happening with the gun
- 3:26:41a wave
- 3:26:42everything else am i kneeling in my in a
- 3:26:45mud pit in my heaven done I love you I
- 3:26:49will protect you even though you were a
- 3:26:50green beret you need me to save you love
- 3:26:53you I don't care if all these guys know
- 3:26:56it the story's getting so deep I'm gonna
- 3:26:58keep going I will save you all that's
- 3:27:02happening is I'm thinking about all of
- 3:27:03that I'm not gonna let see read all I'm
- 3:27:08thinking about is that except I see the
- 3:27:10sights on the target press press
- 3:27:13it's that easy I mean it's really I
- 3:27:15think we complicate the [ __ ] out of
- 3:27:17stuff not to disagree with him because
- 3:27:20what I mean I'm kind of circle it back
- 3:27:22up and then I will agree with them you
- 3:27:24know like don't cross your legs right
- 3:27:25you guys all heard that at some point
- 3:27:27cuz you could trip or if I have to well
- 3:27:31part of that comes big being aware of
- 3:27:33your body I talked about football
- 3:27:35watch Walter Payton videos remember who
- 3:27:37he was greatest running back of all time
- 3:27:40I don't even like sports but my home
- 3:27:42team Walter would like jump over people
- 3:27:47his feet were dancing all over the place
- 3:27:50all the while like and like five guys
- 3:27:54trying to tackle em and he was aware of
- 3:27:56all of it so you need to be aware one
- 3:27:59more thing I'll add to that disease
- 3:28:03point we're training for the best
- 3:28:04outcome so we know we're not Walter
- 3:28:09Payton
- 3:28:09so let's teach ourselves to move in a
- 3:28:12way that we're setting ourselves up to
- 3:28:13have a good platform and be successful
- 3:28:15class the principal right right so we
- 3:28:18talked a principal verse technique a
- 3:28:20good technique is they use that but the
- 3:28:22principle is the same always be balanced
- 3:28:24athletic positioning be ready for the
- 3:28:27fight so my principal even if I woul see
- 3:28:30a video of me everybody you'll see it on
- 3:28:31the Internet guys like why are you
- 3:28:33backing up and I've never back up you'll
- 3:28:34bump into things sometimes you might
- 3:28:37have to back up somebody's coming at you
