Some instructional videos from Direct Action Group....including position SUL
Looking to improve your tactical awareness and training level? Consider Direct Action Group / TFTT training out at Burro Canyon Shooting park in Southern California and at Sacramento Valley Shooting Center in Northern California. (Disclosure: I am just a student impressed with the quality and level of education I have received and want to share the experience)
http://dag-usa.com/ These guys are a legit tactical school. Founder /primary instructor has had a contract for many years with the US Department of State ATA (Anti Terrorist Assistance Program) to travel to foreign allies and teach tactics within its CRT (Crisis Response Team) training program to foreign / allied military and LE units. Instructor bio's / creds: http://dag-usa.com/intel-2/cadre/ He also does a lot of DoD work (US Army and Navy) as an outside tactical training contractor / adviser in addition to teaching at the California Highway Patrol Academy in the recent past. Very VERY safe, up to date tactical training here in the LA area for civilians. Their tactical handgun series ( I/ II/ III) are being offered in November. http://dag-usa.com/training-calendar/ Facebook page and reviews.... https://www.facebook.com/pg/tfttdag/...=page_internal Some videos produced by Direct Action Group that will give you a idea of the type / style of training.... Tactics, Techniques and Procedures Five stages of Escalation: Position Sul (Developed by Max Joseph and Alan Brosnan): Engagement / post engagement procedure: Breaking glass.... CQB montage.......

I was looking at there classes definitely looks legit. I was really thinking about it but I saw there FAQ. I’m overweight and out of shape so I guess there classes are to tactical for me. But maybe next time they offer them I’ll be a bit more prepared. |

if they are "Very VERY safe", kinda curious why they require body armor for their civilian courses. Another revenue stream by renting it?

- Body armor is a "industry wide professional standard" with all military and LEO training. Like a seat belt, if its available, why would you NOT wear it? Dynamic / tactical weapons training is inherently more dangerous than riding in a car. - The "civilian classes" are nothing more than the Mil/LE classes opened up /offered to include motivated civilians. - Once you are off a static square range and into a dynamic tactical training environment with movement, ballistic shoot house structure clearing, vehicle drills etc..., particularly in a two man team or larger element, it should be mandatory in ALL schools. (see last two videos) - Being primarily a military / LE tactical school, you train the way you will fight...weapons and kit. Civilians allowed to come out and train are required meet that same Mil/LE standard. When I took the rifle class I wore plates, handgun classes, soft armor only. - From what I could see, most students bring their own armor. Soft armor rents for $10 a day.. hardly a "revenue stream". Going to MOST public ranges and some shooting competitions, I many times wished I had armor on.

By being less active in Calguns aren't you by default more active in life?

The last class I took was an advanced shooting 3 day class, not tactical. There was myself, one other older guy and a young guy who takes a lot of shooting classes. The rest were all LEO, swat or military. There was a little running around to get your heart rate up a bit and some shooting while moving. Long days but not too much for me. It was challenging and fun. |

Aside from a few legit dudes like Uncle Scotty and Max from DAG, it seems like any swinging dick can be a "trainer" in CA nowadays. Some of the classes being posted in the Training Class Announcements subforum are downright scary. Dudes with zero verifiable background are teaching "advanced CQB tactics". |

For those that dont know what Dunning-Kruger is.....
"In the field of psychology, the Dunning–Kruger effect is a cognitive bias in which people of low ability have illusory superiority and mistakenly assess their cognitive ability as greater than it is." https://www.forbes.com/sites/markmur.../#69fa0b0c5d7c
