Student Review: Rifle Skills / Combat Team Tactics – ‘The Rage Switch’: 11Bravo
You don’t need to read Gibbon’s “Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire” to see where the good ole USA is headed, just look around.

I really think you need to make the distinction between “conventional” crime or violence, and “unconventional” crime or violence. […]

I am going to provide insight into how my belt is set up, but stress that this is really […]

Student Review: Virginia Combat Team Tactics July: Roger
I had the pleasure of attending another of Max’s great courses, but to make it even better I was able to bring my 17 year old grandson. On the drive up to MVT he confided in me that he was a little concerned; all the other students would know what they were doing and he […]
