  1. Sick f uck needs to rot in hell.
  2. In as long as jon sits next to me...
  3. The welfare system is so corrupt it's not even funny. With my job I find myself going into houses in depressed areas and find Medicade users with $3k Smart TV. Hand out in wawa in the same areas and you will find the staff arguing with people what thier EBT card can cover, when wawa refuses to allow its use they bust out a wad of 20s and 50/ from thier pockets. Another common situation is woman has baby and gets welfare assistance yet baby daddy still lives with them and provides them with smart phones and a Lexus. I can go on and on with examples...
  4. This rifle is a DREAM to shoot. Can't wait to get it over the Delaware to throw a drum mag in it...
  5. Ed, I liked training and the evening hang-outs with you. I hope we can train together more in the future.
  6. Backstep boogie will leave you flat on your a**. Lateral movement while keeping you hips square to the assailant as much as possible is the key.
  7. Glock 19/17. Rifle: Any 7.62 AK or 5.56 AR of reliable manufacture.
  8. Combat Focus Target Gomez on WTF AK Malfunction This is contents of my "Goodie Bag" raffle prize.
  9. There were two vehicles full of what became known as the "Jersey Crew" who drove up to Pelham NH for the NE Shooters Summit 2012. Instructors: Night One: Bill Lewitt: RN and CCEMT-P. Published in SWAT and provides training to both US Soldiers and contractors prior to deploying. (see link) This was a 4hour course block on the application of hemostatic agents and "tactical" medicine. We used rear quarters of pigs (that were shot with various pistol and rifle rounds) that were catheterized to simulate blood flow. This was a VERY effective way to learn to use quick-clot/Celox. Day Two: Wess Doss: Former director of training at Crimson Trace and Brownells. 20+ years of military and LEO experience. Shotgun: Personally I hate the shotgun; its big, heavy, and slow to reload. In this class we used about 150rds of birdshot on Steel. We fired form various positions and were instructed on various methods of reloading. Claude Werner Form Army SF Captan, Chief Instructor at Rogers Shooting School and IDPA grand master. J-Frame: I have a J-Frame and came to this course knowing very little about how to "run" the pistol. We worked on various carry methods, reloads, reload devices etc. Mr. Werner has a very calm demeanor about him and his teaching style is very different than any other firearms instructor I have taken training from. There was some very helpful teaching points on how to work the J-Frame trigger and his method of reloading. I will defiantly take a class from Claude if he is in the area. Chris Frye "Regular Guy" who has logged tons of training. Chris comes from the civilian perspective of training. I have taken many classes from Chris in the past and plan to continue. One Handed Pistol Manipulations: We all like to go to the range and practice things we are good at... and one handed pistol manipulations is something I personally never practice. I got really caught up on some what I like to call WTF pistol malfunctions. (note it's a mother f'er to rip a mag out of glock using only one hand.) We worked on various methods to clear one handed malfunctions some of which were new to me. Tap Rack takes on a new meaning with one hand, ripping the magazine out makes things even more fun. Try locking your slide to the rear with one hand under stress.... Kelly Venden: Former Delta (google him), currently training deploying troops. I will DEFINATLY take a class from Kelly in the future. His style was refreshing. AR: In this course we started with some close range work utilizing Sight-Bore offset. We advanced to utilizing cover (using cover as a stabilization platform to long range or precision shots vs not crowding cover) and culminated with moving and shooting. Thats right- in a 2 hour block we were moving a shooting and everyone was making hits. Day Three: Rob Pincus: PDN and Combat Focus Shooting. Former Military and LEO. I think most people know who he is. Pistol: In Rob's class we working on finding the balance between speed and precision. Alternating from small 3" circles to 8" boxes and utilizing various speeds to push ourselves. Rob teaches a different style of reload from the high ready vs in your "Work Space" his rationale for this makes sense. We also focused on the concept of assessment. Some very enlightening thoughts on what to do in a critical incident. There was good mindset discussion. Through out this course Rob personally coached several people and a marked improvement was noted. He may or may not have launched someone's mag across the range once or twice and busted on non-striker fired pistols. I will train with Rob again in the further. Paul Gomez Former mil and leo. Former employee of a couple big name instructors. AK: This course covered MANY aspects of the AK weapon. There were some very good "teaching moments" with various malfunctions. Some of these malfunction clearance techniques were new to me. Gomez is an outside of the box and innovative instructor. Southnarc Former mil and LEO. Truly and innovator in realistic training. MUC- Managing Unknown Contacts: This block was all about how NOT to get into a gun fight, and if you do to put you in a position of advantage. This segment is to much to cover via written review. Everyone who is serious about self-defense should take this course. It covered things such as ques people give off to show they are deceptive and movement techniques. I can not stress this enough- TAKE THIS CLASS, it will save your LIFE. William Aprill PHD. Psychologist. Violent Criminal Actors: Why criminals do what the do and victim selection. You need to know what this wrong doers look for to be able to adapt and not be a victim. This course was VERY interesting and was mostly all new content for me. This also goes into the category of classes that people who are serious about self defense NEED to take. This is just a nut shell of of what was covered in all of these classes. I'm sure I missed some things. Total Cost for all of this was: $400 for 2.5 days of training. (includes lodging, fuel, and entrance costs) One dynamic that makes this conference setting awesome is the "hanging out" with the instructors during lunch, dinner, cocktails and in between classes. Questions are asked and answered by the instructors at all times. You also get the ability to listen and partake in the discuss amongst the trainers. All the trainers were auditing each others courses. These guys all had the desire to perpetually learn and enhance there content. This wasn't anywhere near an NRA class. They followed a rough outline of a course but that was adapted as class went on depending on skill level of the people in the course. Summits are a great place to "test drive" a bunch of great instructors to see if you want to take a complete class with them. I HIGHLY recommend attending any you can so you can diversify your training and not stick to the same old guy for EVERYTHING training related. Rounds Fired: (low estimates) Shotgun: 150 Pistol: 300 Rifle: AR: 150 AK: 150 Some Pictures: (I was too busy either loading mags or listening to take a lot) Catheterized Pig Pincus
  10. There are a few of us form NJGF up here. Evening day one was very interesting and day two was full of great training. An actual review to follow when we get back.
  11. I know some people here think... well if he listened to the 911 operator everything would be okay... http://denver.cbslocal.com/2012/04/02/denver-911-operators-decision-called-into-question-after-murder/ DENVER (CBS4) – Denver police say they question a 911 operator’s decision after a man was shot to death returning to the location where he was first threatened. The victims called 911 after being threatened at gunpoint by a group of men at 10th and Sheridan early Sunday morning. They drove into Wheat Ridge but the dispatcher told them to return to Denver, and that’s when the suspects fired on their car killing one man. Denver police aren’t sure why the victims were ordered to return to the scene where the trouble started. “We have no idea why this happened,” Ran Pal said. Pal was driving family members early Sunday morning. He says a Hispanic man in a stolen Jeep Grand Cherokee shot his brother while he was on the phone with 911. “I look back; I see his eyes start rolling back. I picked him up, ‘Stay awake, stay awake.’ Maybe 30 to 45 seconds later the police finally show up, and by then he was already gone,” Pal said. His brother was 24-year-old Jimma Palrent. When CBS4 spoke with Pal he was still wearing a shirt covered in his brother’s blood. Pal says a dispatcher said he had to drive back to Denver. “I told them I couldn’t do that because those people might still be there and they had a gun and I didn’t want to go there,” Pal said. “They told me, ‘Well if you don’t go there we can’t come to your location and you can’t file a police report.’ “ At a press conference Denver 911 Dispatch could not explain the incident. “We’re apologetic for the circumstance of the call. We want to give due diligence to the employee and make sure we did or didn’t follow the policy as they’re written,” said Ernest Franssen, Denver 911 Operations Manager. On Monday the operator was placed on administrative leave. It’s unclear what punishments, if any may come. Palrent’s family says they’re outraged and want answers. “This happens that seems like a fault on the dispatcher’s side. I’m very mad, I’m so mad,” Palrent’s brother Gatwec Dengpathot said. (credit: CBS) The 911 communications department held a news conference Monday afternoon. Denver 911 Director Carl Simpson said the operator in the case did not follow the policies and procedures while he was on the 911 call; specifically instructing the men to return to Denver in order to file a police report. Simpson wouldn’t go in to the specifics of the call but says it’s clear that policies were not followed. “The call transpired very quickly and it just got sideways very quickly and I will tell you we didn’t do our best work that morning,” Denver 911 Director Carl Simpson said. Denver police say they would have no problem taking a crime report in Wheat Ridge. The operator who took the call has been with the communications center for two years. Simpson would not say if the operator had been involved in any other botched calls in the past. So far there are no suspects in the shooting. Police have yet to release the 911 call.
  12. Did anyone else sign up for this? Full AAR to follow when we get back on Sunday.
  13. Because it's not 100% guaranteed to not engage.
  14. I want on w/o the external safety...
  15. I know some of you will get all bent over this but this is why it's better when you're involved in a Self defense shooting for the assailant (aggressor) to die. Then it's your story and the evidence available that will determine your guilt/innocence.
  16. What does it matter? He is a concerned citizen who is sick of repeated break ins in his area. If anyone was walking in-between houses of my development I would defiantly call 911 and have in the past. (If i didn't recognize them) It wouldn't be stretch to confront them and say hey guy what are you doing... BTW listening to what the dispatcher says is not required. There have been situations where people have shot and killed intruders when dispatch told them not too. (They were 'good' shoots)
  17. Glock 19 w/ XS Big Dots Holster anything but a SERPA. I have been using a Raven Concealment Phantom since 2008 with my Glock. Bladetech IWB are also nice.
  18. You should first figure out what plates and or soft armor you are getting before the carrier. Soft and Hard armor Hard Armor Only (Stand alone plates) or the ability to wear the soft armor (concealable?) overtop with a plate carrier. Some plates don't fit all carriers and they are size of carrier is based off the plate size. Plate size is determined by level of mobility (and weight) vs amount of coverage.
  19. We once had someone conceal a large knife in his rectum that was discovered during his in processing at county lock up. Nothing surprises me anymore...
  20. +1 When you are under time restraints this works well... Especially if the dealer is good people.
  21. Non-Game pistol with optic. I believe this came about from FN when they announced possible trials for replacements for the M9. Just saying.
  22. Yes, I have. I can tell you that you will never shoot more accurately and focus on your fundamentals more then that point. I have also done bounding overwatch drills and various other movement drills both in the military and not. To be honest i was more concerned at BCT than in the civilian class about being down range with someone shooting at me/in my direction. (there are some stupid mother fuckers in BCT).
  23. Vlad I agree. I've been saying this for years...
  24. FYI the Herters 9mm i bought at Cabelas was rebranded CCI Blaser Al
