Pretty sure we were teaching that to recruits prior to 9/11. At one of the first NTOA Active Shooter Courses (conducted in Phoenix by a guy named Parker from Omaha PD, IIRC) they lined us outside a...

Don't know what happened there - deleted quoted post.

Ahh. Those were the good old days.

I wouldn't call it a strong opinion since I've never used the inline fab version.

On my 550, the Dillon bullet tray also serves as a rest for my hand as I load. Looking at the inline fab...

One of the problems with validating tactics with SIMS training is that everyone there knows they are there to at least do a SIMS simulation. You can’t get around that.

If you notice, there were...

I don’t think I’ve ever been to a course where I didn’t pick up something, but I didn’t get much out of their course, either.

One of the problems was the actual ALERRT guys were pretty dogmatic,...

People do tend to shoot at what they see, HCM noted an example. As another example my first boss at the academy used to give students a cleared firearm and tell them to shoot him, he then brought a...

I'm not sure what you are trying to learn/accomplish. In terms or police work, virtually every call you make has some potential for danger. There are good solid BASIC tactics which officers can use...

Yes, thank you. Nice to know what other folks are thinking.

In terms of time devoted to training - which flashlight techniques do you emphasize more - married hand (Rogers, Chapman) or single hand (old FBI, neck index, etc.)? Just curious.

I'm speaking in general.....IMO a lot of movement techniques seem to be based on either 1) complete stealth - the bad guy doesn't hear you moving; or 2) noise from within the objective covering your...

Just finished watching Lethal Weapon on one of the HBO or SHO channels. I've watched it one or two times over the years and I guess I had forgotten how badly Gibson closes his eyes and flinches when...

Robert Bray was, IMO, over-emoting, even for a film-noir production. I found it campy and enjoyed the film, I'd never seen it before.

The absolute best BBQ Brisket I've ever eaten was at a hole in the wall joint, I believe on East McArthur in Wichita, the back of the building was a strip club.

'Watcha want?' 'How about some...

FWIW - if you are contemplating ordering the answer to the question that determines you aren't a robot is 'parkerizing' NOT 'refinishing' 'Garands' or 'Mini-G's.' A friend told me.

ETA: Tim...

Welcome!

My grandfather had one fixed, he was flat on his back for a couple days, forty years later I was in and out in two hours - most of that time spent waiting - and walked out the door able to read...

Quoted for truth.

Ohhh gggrreat.

2150.00 for a .308. I might be buying sooner rather than later, I hope they would always be legal.

Most aftermarket adjustables will need a taller front sight. Although if the one on the Taurus isn't higher profile than the Glock adjustable you'll probably be okay with the stock Glock height,...

I looked. No Pryors.

Seems to be working in France, even with the 'green initiative' their plan is to have 50% of their energy from nuclear power.

It also seems that there is a lot more electricity produced by nuclear...

Where are you at presently? Not buzzing I-70 through Kansas are you?

It is really easy to make sure you are getting a powder charge with the 550, you are pretty much on top of the case looking into it, at least I am.

Personally, I wouldn't think about running a 550...

I started wearing glasses in the first grade. By the time I was in high school when they screened for vision I said 'E' with my left eye and was fibbing - couldn't see squat. IIRC, I was 20/800...
