AAR on Snowmaggedon & Training/Gear Comments: Greg
Just received from Greg: Thoughts after participating in Snowmageddon CRCD class (Dec 14/15). This was my favorite class of last 30 years. I have no military experience so team training is hard to come by, but individual training is as easy as 1,2,3: Get out of bed. Socks, underwear, and camo pants. Camo shirt, elbow pads, […]

I am coming late to Bracken’s books. I finished EFAD on Christmas day. Quite simply, I loved it. What a great book! I couldn’t recommend […]
Guest Post: ‘Stripper Clips’ by Doc

While this is […]
Shipping Ammo For Training
I have had a number of inquiries about shipping ammo for attending one of my training classes. Up till now, I haven’t been able to accommodate this because my PO Box does not accept shipments of ammo. For long distance travelers, we have so far had to procure ammo locally and this is not an […]
