Pretty impressive shooting. I'm sure some of you have heard of this guy, but I sure haven't. Figured what better place to post this than right here.

Watched it last night. He has reached Level "Operator."

I would do a bit of research before getting awed by his circus tricks...

Still pretty impressive either way and it was fun to watch. I was entertained with it last night while on facebook.

Anyway you put it, he's a good shot. All the little tricks he was doing was just for show, but doesn't mean he isn't good at them.

No doubt. I'm sure he spent a lot of time and film working on those tricks and growing his beard to look cool. I wonder what his times would be if he closed the hood on his holster instead of just resting the pistol in there...or if he actually had to assess the threat before turning around instead of shooting blind.

I agree... I want to know his background (any asshole can dress up in SF tac-gear). But that still doesn't detract from how amazing of a shooter he is. That video was pretty damn cool!

The guy unarguably has shooting skills. But, yeah...if he had to run through the loop before shooting I doubt he'd be quite so fast. But still pretty damn impressive for what he was doing and he's obviously dedicated a lot of time and effort to sharpening those skills. Fun to watch!

IIRC, he shot the aspirin out of the air with a .22. Fantastic exhibition shooter and ambassador for the shooting sports. May he RIP.

AND... he keeps up a dialogue during the whole shooting expo. He doesn't just make grumpy faces when he shoots.

I'm always impressed by shooting small objects, as I couldn't even see an asprin from far enough away to shoot it, let alone time it correctly.

That whole Spetznaz/IDF Yatah shoot at the ground to scare the herd/people you are trying to move out of the way thing still weirds me out.

Zero's "tactical roll" is a little too tactical for me.

You have to admire the shooting, but the funny little head twist to make sure no one is behind him entertains me. I am pretty sure that even if I train a lot more I would never be that tactical. If I had to do that shoulder roll and look both directions for a course, I'm pretty sure I would fail it because I have a pretty good sense of humor about myself as well and I would laugh at me.

He needs this at 2:20 in the video Cy posted: http://www.apexxarmaments.com/apexx-home.html

Also, I hope to be able to rip into a full sized steel target at 7 yards like that some day.

The roll where he muzzle sweeps everyone behind him?

Yeap!! That one. [Awesom]

OK...I'm gonna give the guy an "A" for effort just for posting the tactical roll video. Phu-king awesome, dude!

I'm pretty sure the whole muzzle-sweeping everyone behind him is intentional to keep bad guys from sneaking up on him.

I saw a few high quality mag flips in there.

Do real operators shoot Glock?

Real operators ONLY shoot Glocks (and pimped AR's of course).

Okay, so you're already in the crouching position. What benefit is there to rolling when you've already got the sector of fire covered, you're not making yourself any smaller of a target, and you're not moving to any sort of cover?

Me thinks all you're doing is temporarily providing the enemy with relief from your stream of fire and losing your acquisition. But I guess it looks cool.

anyone else imagine someone trying to rack the slide on their heel, and ND'ing their calcaneus off?

Real operators have some one else do the shooting for them.

HAHAH, I watched the video several times last night and for some reason I break out in laughter every time he starts rolling around. He is like a ballerina with a pistol.

I guess there's an imaginary obstacle and he doesn't want to leave his crouch to step over it with return fire flying overhead.

I wonder if his wife ever gets tired of seeing him make those faces during their intimate moments.

The one thing that proves you are NOT an Operator is that you have a Video of yourself on Youtube.

One rule about being an Operator is you don't talk about being an Operator.

Well, after watching Instructor Zero I'm gonna have to completely redo my everyday wardrobe and fertilize my beard.

I'm going to sell my guns -the ones that aren't already at the bottom of Tarryall reservoir- and buy tie-dye. There's no way I can operator like that guy. He's so tactical that he's strategic.
