    Default Post your training vids and drills

    Post up your training videos/information.

    What type of drills do you do?

    Always enjoy learning.


    So this one we went 10, 25, and 50 yards. 5 shots per target. We shoot at 9" pie plates.



    This is CCW training. Initial close confrontation, Run to cover, engage, Mag change behind cover and engage last target. All targets are engaged with 2 in the chest, 1 in the head. I clearly screwed up my mag change!



    Working on trigger control and moving target to target in CQB with the AR. Trying to focus on trigger reset; not jerking the trigger, stopping on target, and moving quickly.



    This was a 100 yard drill on 9" pie plates. 2 shots from 3 positions.




    Ok, let the games begin!!!!

    Gun games are a great way to hone your shooting skills (and it they are super-fun too). If you decide to try them, understand that they are just that -- a game -- and as such, there are safety rules that you must be aware of to prevent a disqualification. I mention this because I noticed that on your second video (CCW Training) the muzzle of your pistol was pointed up range at one point.

    On a separate subject... I believe you said that you are trying to become proficient by learning about tactics on your own but, have you considered taking some classes from a reputable instructor? Believe me when I tell you, it's money well spent!!

    I cannot see this thread going well...
    What is my joy if all hands, even the unclean, can reach into it? What is my wisdom, if even the fools can dictate to me? What is my freedom, if all creatures, even the botched and impotent, are my masters? What is my life, if I am but to bow, to agree and to obey?

    USMC Rules For Gun Fighting
    • Bring a gun. Preferably, bring at least two guns. Bring all of your friends who have guns.
    • Anything worth shooting is worth shooting twice. Ammo is cheap. Life is expensive.
    • Only hits count. A close miss is still a miss.
    • If your shooting stance is good, you're probably not moving fast enough nor using cover correctly.
    • Move away from your attacker. Distance is your friend. (Lateral and diagonal movements are preferred.)
    • If you can choose what to bring to a gunfight, bring a long gun and a friend with a long gun.
    • In ten years nobody will remember the details of caliber, stance, or tactics. They will only remember who lived.
    • If you are not shooting, you should be communicating, reloading, and running.
    • Accuracy is relative: most combat shooting standards will be more dependent on "pucker factor" than the inherent accuracy of the gun.
    • Use a gun that works EVERY TIME.
    • Someday someone may kill you with your own gun, but they should have to beat you to death with it because it is empty.
    • Always cheat = always win. The only unfair fight is the one you lose.
    • Have a plan.
    • Have a back-up plan, because the first one won't work.
    • Use cover and concealment as much as possible.
    • Flank your adversary when possible. Protect yours.
    • Don't drop your guard.
    • Always tactically reload and threat scan 360 degrees.
    • Watch their hands. Hands kill. (In God we trust. Everyone else, keep your hands where I can see them).
    • Decide to be AGGRESSIVE enough, QUICKLY enough.
    • The faster you finish the fight, the less shot up you will get.
    • Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
    • Be courteous to everyone, friendly to no one.
    • Do not attend a gunfight with a handgun, the caliber of which does not start with a "4".

    As I originally posted, I have no formal training.

    I just thought this might be a fun thread to start and hopefully gain some knowledge from some of the more experienced shooters on the forum.

    Isn't shooting supposed to be fun and a learning experience?
