AAR: Combat Lifesaver/TC3 2 May – Jack (“Take this for your teammates’)

AAR: Combat Rifle / Contact Drills (CRCD) 3/4 May – Jack

I have read many of the CRCD AAR’s, that is what convinced me to come to MVT. What I am trying to do is to possibly give a different perspective to why MVT is the place to train. I did tactical pistol training last year at a name brand tactical facility. The price was $500 […]

Two for the Vietnam Vets

Given the number of Vietnam Vets who continue to come through my classes, this post is for you, even if you don’t appreciate the music genre! 67 years old, or around that age, often wounded in combat, you continue to train.

AAR: Rifle Manipulation Primer (RMP) 2 May – Jack

When Max announced the RMP class I was all over it. I signed up for it the first day it was available. Being a handgun guy and new to the AR platform it just made good sense to get instruction from professional AR runners. In a nutshell it was the smartest thing I did in […]

STFU: Get an AR!

Knuckledragger thought for the day: Observing training, and how people perform while doing it, I have to say that there is no justification to not have an AR-style rifle. Yeah, Yeah, I know. You want to bang on about putting them down at 1000 yards, turning cover into concealment, and all that. To which I […]
