To the Reader, I chose to write the following MVT C2G student review as an open letter to my kids. Please feel free to share it with anyone who loves their kids, and can therefore relate. Kids, You three are super-awesome and your Mom and I love you forever.  We love you enough to do […]

Aaron ran the first Combat 2 Gun (C2G) class this past weekend. Training numbers have been slow this February due to concerns over the weather, but we had 6 students and the weather was a little cold but good overall.

I am going to provide that link, some excerpts, and commentary. Main article Link:Rhodesian Cover or Drake Shooting – Small […]

MVT RIFLEMAN CHALLENGE DETAIL I had maybe two or three commenters express their concern over the shooting standards laid down for the MVT Rifleman Challenge – and there therefore may be others who are also silently concerned. I aim to address that in this post. The shooting standard of the MVT Rifleman Challenge is as follows: […]

My observations of the ‘prepper/liberty’ movement tell me that in many cases there is a reality gap between intent and capability. This is often compounded by the age factor. In this post I am going to talk about training progression. I will use training that we offer at MVT as examples, but ultimately it doesn’t […]
