Corporate Guy (CG) from Carolina AAR – Rifle Manipulation Course (RMP) – 2 May, 2014 As an aspiring new MVT student, I read many of the AAR’s posted on this site over the months leading up to the Combat Rifle / Contact Drills course (CRCD) I had signed up for.  It occurred to me while reading […]

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 […]

I was just out setting up the ranges today for TC3/RMP tomorrow (Friday May 1) and CRCD over the weekend: Ivan Awaits You:   Empty Bunkers.

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 […]
