This is downright scary!

[Merc1138]

I think there is more practical training (the type that helps you not sh:7 yourself if confronted by a bad guy) by guys that don't have paintings of themselves that looks like video game covers.

LOL, I thought he photoshopped his face into a poster for Splinter Cell or something.

edit: OMFG, it was for splinter cell conviction


WHAT A ****ING TOOL, HAHAHA

edit again: I even found the actual wallpaper version he used, hahahaha

Why does everyone wear camo to go to the range, BLM or to 'train'?

I don't get it.

If you are an active member in the armed forces or actively hunt game, yes I can see the need.


And yes.... unsafe practices.

Before everyone jumps on the "OMG THATS NOT SAFE" band wagon. Keep in mind the instructor (According to his bio) in that video trains SWAT, Force Recon, and SAS Soldiers around the world.

Chris Collins

CEO / Chief Instructor / Director of Training

Chris has spent 9 years in the USMC as a member of 3rd Force Reconnaissance Company. He has 12 years of experience in the security industry, working worldwide and a lifetime in the martial arts, from Western boxing and greco-roman wrestling to WingTsun, Jujitsu and Kali. His expertise lies in his use of hand-to-hand combat, edged and impact weapons, firearms (handgun/carbine/shotgun), explosives, combat tactics and physical endurance. He has spent the past 15 years focused on the development of the G-1 Pipeline. He has taught US Force Recon Marines, British and Australian SAS members, SWAT team members and private security contractors from around the world.

This is also not part of their normal training, this is part of their selective training.

Keep in Mind, you must go through our technical and tactical courses before attending our combative level courses. The instructors must feel comfortable with your safe handling of your firearms. thank you

What people are paying for when they take this course isn't basic firearm skills. This is Special Forces training for those who have money. This isn't some Gecko45 BS, if these guy's bio's are correct they've spent a great deal of time in the Special Forces.

And according to his portrait, he's Sam Fisher from a series of Tom Clancy games.

I don't care if it was John Moses Browning himself teaching these classes. What they're doing is unsafe on many levels, and should not be taught in the fashion it is. If they were interested in doing this correctly they could use simunition or something similar along with the appropriate gear. What they're doing instead is conducting gross negligence.

So this is UTG's version of Chris Costa?

Then so is the U.S. Military in some of the SF/Ranger Training and Infantry Training. They're training for combat, this isn't some walk in the park. These people need to know what its like having bullets flying by them which is exactly why they stand there. Safe? Probably Not, but there hasn't been any reported casualties that I know of yet so they must be doing something right.

This isn't some basic firearms training, these people are not training to fend off an attacker. These people are training on how to kill in a CQB.

"According to their website that guy spent 9 years in Force Recon. He must have been sick the day they showed them how to use guns."

Nahh, it's not gross negligence, he's Sam Fisher!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sam_Fisher_%28Splinter_Cell%29

He's been deployed around the world, worked for the CIA, expert in krav maga, led a SEAL squad, acted as an assassin, was an intelligence officer in the Navy, blah blah blah.

So this is UTG's version of Chris Costa?

I was trying to ignore the beard and coincidental name similarity, but now that you mention it..

So why not shoot the guy you're fighting with rather than wrestle with him and shoot some guy far away?

And I'm still waiting for a SF/Ranger to comment on this being legit training. I guess I can wait until the morning and ask my FIL, since he was SF, and there's a guy at work who was a Ranger too. So far everyone I've talked to says this is a bad idea.

[alfred1222]

im sorry, idc who you are or how well you train, you dont jam a gun into someones neck!

"Play stupid games win stupid prices." that's what it came to my mind seeing this video.

kinda seams like a normal weekend of shooting out at spenceville to me

I love all the instant replays of otherwise not very cool things.
