Excellent! I'm really looking forward to seeing what SLG has to say; I've missed having him here at Todd's "second home".

[Kyle Reese]

Fantastic news!

That's grand!

[Cory]

This is outstanding in every regard.

[HCountyGuy]

I'm excited as all hell to have SLG back in some form, even better that he's reviving pistol-training.com

I'm looking forward to this immensely!

Great news!

[awp_101]

Awesome!

[SecondsCount]

Woot!

No better person to continue the legacy. Wish he’d come back here more often!

Agreed.

[gtmtnbiker98]

Agreed.

I’m out of the class hosting business, but you host him I can fill that class in minutes. I hosted multiple classes for TLG and still have class rosters to contact. Damn, I miss Todd!

Is SLG doing classes? I could definitely host him.

I guess, “if.” The classes were a big part of P-T.com. F.A.S.T. and coins and all the good stuff.

Excited to see SLG carrying the torch. I learned a lot from him when he was active on PF. Looking forward to see where the new PT goes.

[Lex Luthier]

Yeah, this is excellent news.

[98z28]

It’s like a second Christmas. Thank you, SLG!!!

2022 is starting to look better already!


I have periodically wondered what SLG was up to. I have missed his perspective. So happy to see he is bringing back P-T!


And ammo prices are starting to come down a little :cool:

[UNM1136]

Based on several interactions over the last few years, I thought SLG was done with us. I had the same thoughts about Giving Back. I was wrong there, I hope I have been wrong here.

Even if he is done with PF.com, I am happy to see him up on Pistol-training.com. I was always a lurker/reader there...with him in charge I will continue to lurk, and treasure the experience.

My ears were burning……..

I won’t speak to the distractions going on in SLG’s & JG’s life, but we certainly all have them. I too, am happy to see him back in the mix.

In my case, if you look back on my historical engagements here, they’re all or nothing……..meaning I have nothing but time, or time is the only thing I don’t have enough of. Which is pretty much the case with my participation over the past couple of years.

I try to find time to lurk, but since I’m no longer on the leading edge of technology or emerging trends in the gear and tactics world, I don’t find myself having much to offer that is relevant. I’ve also had some pretty ugly battles with lingering health problems I brought home with me, which tends to take the jelly outta my donuts. As if that wasn’t enough, starting a nonprofit with ZERO idea of what in the actual fuck I am doing has been taxing to say the least.

September thru January is our busiest time of year, with the bulk of our activities and events taking place during those five months. Along with that is the increased demand from our target demographic throughout the holiday season makes that a full-time job in and of itself l. As our organization has grown and expanded, and word gets around about what we can provide, we’ve seen an increase of five times the contacts and referrals we received during the same period of 2020. Since I pay our staff so well, it’s been easy to find the extra help we need during the busy months. (That’s called sarcasm…….I don’t pay them shit).

You’ll probably see me a little more active come spring and summer, and I have been asked, and depending on my ability to run a full day range event, may even come out of retirement and do a PF.com supporter members carbine/sub gun/pistol course in early September in VA.

Thanks for remembering me though. And I certainly appreciate all of the support our members here have provided to our organization, and our men and women in uniform.

Would you mind sharing what your non-profit is and a link?

Thanks

This has been talked about here in various threads through nearly every step of it's creation.

I think it's an outstanding idea, and outstanding cause. I wish it had been around before some of my friends made permanent choices to problems that were temporary.

I'm interested to see future articles on PT. I'm hoping that it drives more thought provoking discussion and improvement related topics. Hopefully it will draw back some of our more knowledgable members, and their insight. For someone like me who isn't able to get to as many training classes (for a variety of reasons) I'll take all the "ah-ha" moments I can get on my firearm-craft path as I can get, anywhere I can get them.

Great news I was there for the first P-T.com class, I was representing it at Gunsite last year. Also in a Vicker’s class with SLG, a real shooting machine.

I liked that article. I think SLG is going to do very well reviving P-T.com. I’m looking forward to what he puts out once he really hits his stride.

Wonder what TLG would have preferred - a LTT Beretta RDS 92 or a 229 that had an RDS on it?

IIRC, Todd preferred the Vertec frame. I can see him digging a 92X that had been worked over by LTT. Really though, I suspect he would have preferred the Sig to the Beretta. Maybe Ernest or SLG could shed more light on it than my foggy memory of some old posts made on PF.

He was not an RDS fan. Although, neither was I at the time. He'd likely be excited that TDA options are better now than ever. I bet he'd try to get Ernest to make him a Vertec-framed LTT. He did also really like the E2 grip and Sig short trigger, which feels way too short to me at the point where the trigger breaks. Despite being about four inches taller than me (which is like a foot taller than SLG :cool:), he had really short fingers. Which is pretty odd given his preference for TDA guns.

Yeah, I recall the drama over Scott's F.A.S.T. coin.

I witnessed Todd run a fair number of people through the FAST with an RDS. If one of them had shot a coin winning run, he would have given them a coin. We just didn't think an RDS was much of an advantage, especially given the reliability compromise that existed at the time (pre-Type 2 RMR). It's not like Scott made the super-elite group of people who won a coin in a KSTG match anyways.
