Re-Posted from December 2013: Let’s talk about night operations. This is a topic that often comes up, particularly with regards to modern night vision equipment. There was a string of comments about this in my recent post ‘Out In the woods’, which took on the form of a mini forum. There are multiple aspects to discuss […]

I will make it available, probably on the second night of the CTT phase of both the CTT/Mobility 5 day, and the CTT/Patrol 6 day. However, be aware that for this class you will need the equipment specified […]

The February 2016 Classes in Texas have now filled up. For those that are booked, I know that I have not yet sent out the class information packets. We are updating what we had for last year, and will send them out prior to Christmas. In the meantime, any questions please ask me. We are […]

Max Velocity Tactical (MVT) has now been approved as a Professional Training Organization (PTO)  by Ultimate Training Munitions (UTM). At this time, we are primarily interested in the Man Marker Round (MMR) product.
