I posted on the MVT forum about prospective class dates for 2025. I have posted dates that I am available for classes, but not what those classes will be. I’m after some feedback on what classes you want to see on those dates, before I schedule. Drawing your attention to this post about class price […]

I recently sent out a mailer by email, but didn’t do a blog post. For those of you who don’t get the emails, you would need to sign up at the bottom of the MVT website homepage, here: Times are currently hard and I get it. At Max Velocity Tactical the priority is to get […]

I took the Night Ops class and found it to be the best synthesis of previous classes with an emphasis on safety and great content. I found the Night Ops class to be extremely important as it is the culmination of HEAT 1 and HEAT 2. I now think of Night Ops as HEAT 3, […]

This past weekend I completed the night vision class at Max Velocity Tactical. The class starts each day around 5 pm on the flat range. We did some individual and group drills to knock the rust off and make sure we are all on the same page. We check the zero on the IR lasers. […]

HEAT Night Operations is an exceptional 2-night class in the basics of SUT operations under NVG’s. Once you’ve taken HEAT 1 and HEAT 2, you’ve meet the prerequisite to take this class. You’ll get to use the all the skills you’ve learned in HEAT 1 and 2 on the flat range and on the tactical […]

It’s been a long time coming, but the MVT stable of books is now available as Audiobooks, either from Amazon or Audible! My original tactical / prepping manual ‘Contact’, the more recent Tactical Manual, and the two fiction books, ‘Patriot Dawn’ and ‘Patriot Rising.’ Links: ‘Contact: A Tactical Manual for Post Collapse Survival.’ Audible version […]

HEAT 2 Combat Patrol AAR. I attended my first HEAT 1 Combat Tactics class in December of 2020. That was the beginning of my formal SUT training, and this past week I was back in Romney for my third HEAT 2, my sixth HEAT training with Max. I am fortunate that I have the opportunity […]

“This is a family training.” This is my fifth class at MVT and my first time retaking a class. CQB was the first class I took 3 years ago when my dad told me about MVT telling me about the live fire and how intense it was and asked if I would want to take […]

This is my sixth class at MVT and my second time retaking a class. Coming back to take HEAT 1 was a great experience. Live-fire is a crucial aspect of training as it simulates the sense of a gunfight, even if you are shooting at pop-up targets, maneuvering with your buddies and communicating and being […]

I originally meant this to be an AAR about how I could find things from this course useful in the future. However, given certain events that have happened since then, I believe some real life applications of the techniques learned would be much better suited. I, along with many others, was affected by Hurricane Helene, […]
