    Put up or shut-up...

    ...okay boys n girls. Lets quit talking about coooool carbines, rifles, etc and learn how to use them.

    Everybody talks about what they would do in a given situation? Really? You will drop $1.5k on a cool gun but not $200-$400 to learn how to use it? Huh?

    We'll see how many Calgunners actually show up to train and not type.

    See you there, or not.

    Well, I bought and built my off list for varmint shooting. If I thought that I'd ever get charged by hordes of screaming saber-toothed ground squirrels I might consider such a course.

    I'll probably just wait until I see the Crows start organizing an air force and the Coyotes doing the reconnaisance for the invasion of killer rodents.

      That is the exact attitude of most anti-gunners...also, learning to become more proficient with your firearm(s) is a must.

      actually show up to train and not type.

        Thanks for the invite, but I already have tactical training, and continue to practice and drill ever since. You might want to tell people how much it really costs! After paying for ammo, food, hotel, you're probably going to be in the $700.00 to $800.00 range, or more. Good luck and have fun and post on how you thought it was?

            Course Equipment List:

            - 1500 rounds rifle and 500 rounds pistol ammo All ammo MUST be factory loaded!
            - Minimum of three magazines for each weapon

            - Magazine pouch for each

            Not to put anyone down but shouldn't this course be altered so we Kalifornians can break open our ars action to reload? 1500 rifle rounds 150 times of opening up the action.

            Minimum of three ar magazines & the magazine pouch is totally out of the question.

            Of course we are talking about ARs here. I am definitely interested in getting training but some clarification would help. And I am not going to travel out of state.......

              The course looks like something I would be interested in...but it seems useless until the lowers are listed. Tactical training with fixed mags or no grips?

              Am I missing something?

                  Nope, I run a modified M1A Bush...LOP shortened, Arms #18 mount, Larue Mount, Aimpont CompM2...

                  How much is your life worth? Your kids, wife?

                  I look for every opportunity to train, while others look for every opportunity not to.

                    Yes, USE A DIFFERENT CARBINE. Also, they have AR's to rent. Being from out of state they can bring them here to train

                      Stop Half Quoting

                      Macewindu,
                      I see you like to take things out of context and use them to and make Your point. Like I said, I have tactical training and continue to practice and drill, and doing so is not perishable! Next time you quote someone use the whole quote, instead you half quote and add remarks to better yourself and your perspective. As for the price, be up front with people! Did you actually think this class was going to cost you around $200.00 to $400.00 ? I'm all for training but this isn't the only way, just an option!

                        ... I will not split hairs...okay, you win. There.

                        Now, put up or shut up. Sign up or don't. I make NO MONEY from this.

                          And for you southerners or Sacramento area dwellers, May I suggest,
                          Executive protection and tactical training near Los Angeles — VIP / PSD, pistol, long gun, and tactics courses for military, law enforcement, and qualified professionals.
