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. I am humbled. I salute you. The Ode of Remembrance: They went with songs […]

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 […]

Just back in from CRCD 3/4 May. Another good class and I remembered to get some photos this time.

AAR: CRCD 26/27 Apr – Phoenix
If you want my “Max Is Awesome” post look at my October AAR. He is awesome. But that’s not what I wanted to focus on here. As usual the take away is more PT. Specifically endurance for me. I don’t fancy myself some sort of bad ass, high speed, front line guy. I’m just a […]
AAR: RMP/CRCD 26/27 April – Danni
My name is Danni and I am writing this to try to give a women’s perspective and hopefully try to convince other women that they can do this, they will be welcomed and they NEED to take this course. I will be the first to admit that I took this class initially to appease my […]
