    Reality & Safety in Training

    Lots of safety-cringing scenes but none top those starting at minute 4:41 -- body armor makes it okay!?

    These guys are clearly idiots. Looks like they have watched ALOT of movies.
    They are missing the word Dynamic and Strategic though.

      Aside from anything else, I think the most frightening aspect was evident in the first few seconds of the video ... this is their "Level 1 Intro" course? Whether or not their is any utility to anything that is shown, it's pretty clear that this isn't "handgun 101" stuff, and shouldn't be.

      I am aware that former comblok and Asian training standards look upon US/Western Europe safety standards as being somewhat "prissy" and fanatical. You can have a good discussion with Max Franz or Sonny Puzikas about that and still be slack-jawed, WTF? in amazement at some of the things in this video. I cannot imagine anyone justifying putting a real gun up to someone's throat and then loading/firing it seconds later as part of the same exercise ... waaaaaay too far over the line.

      I'm really wondering about the whole "punching with your gun" business as well. Yep ... seen that in some movies, and had the stupidity of it aptly demonstrated on more than one occasion.

      I don't pretend to be an "authority." I'm just a guy who trains a lot, shoots a lot and has a perspective.

        They really need photographers downrange taking photographs of their awesome tactical skillz.

          Lots of creative marketing ploys for training outfits to set themselves apart from the crowd these days. Of course, most of these outfits will tell you that they have a perfect safety record... A new order of insanity is at play here...
