  1. I think you are right Barms. I think a lot of the shoddy firearms technique you see in movies and TV are in an effort to not obscure the headlining actor's face. Can it be done correctly where you see good technique and still see a recognizable actor - sure. But it's harder and more time consuming which translates to costing more. It easier (read: cheaper) to have an actor shoot from the hip than it is to set up and light a scene with proper technique that also allows their face to be seen clearly.
  2. THIS ^^^^ A lot of range instructors are really nothing more than "hole counters". They grade your targets - not your shooting. There is a huge difference. You have to know the HOW and the WHY to be effective and teach relevant TTPs. Sounds like this guy knew a How but not the Why of a certain technique.
  3. Sure there are wrong ways to hold a gun. Maybe "wrong" isn't quite right, but there are different techniques and grip styles you can utilize based on any issues you are having or what you are trying to improve in your shooting. I don't know about pressure points and all that though.... Even if you aren't having issues per-se, a slight change in your grip could help you shoot faster, or control recoil better than you were before resulting in a tighter shot group, or possibly faster split times. However, not enough info to go on here. What kind of gun? How were you holding it? What changes were suggested? Etc... Photos would likely be helpful.
  4. Excellent! Much to be learned out there are we can't take every class ourselves. Good AARs share the info and pass it on. Thanks!
  5. I like that color. TROY VTAC tube? Is the top of the tube only partially 1913?
  6. Looks like something from "lord of the rings"
  7. Meh.... Answer to a question that no one has asked. That's an awfully big and complicated piece of kit just to carry 5 AR mags.
  8. Panteao has posted a video of the memorial service:
  9. My buddy used to refer to pissing as "giving Hillary a mouthwash".
  10. The safety on an 870 is reversible. Also, they make a LH 870, with the ejection port and what not reversed for you wrong-handers.
  11. Already being discussed in a poorly named topic: http://www.njgunforums.com/forum/index.php/topic/81753-some-people-should-not-be-drawing-breath-anymore/#entry1043133
  12. What a raging asshole.
  13. If you are shooting a lot of standing/kneeling position and/or "CQB" type stuff with stock shortened and the rifle in closer to your body, the more vertical angle of the BCM Gunfighter grip is waaaaay less fatiguing than an A2 or MOE. The angle of the BCM grip mimics the natural position of your wrist and doesn't force it into a weird wrist-rolled-forward position that makes you want to chicken-wing your elbow when the stock is short. If you are shooting a lot of prone, or if you always run the rifle with an A2 stock or fully extended carbine stock, you are probably better served with the MOE.
  14. Looks like a BCM Gunfighter grip with some color added.
  15. http://patch.com/new-jersey/parsippany/taylor-ham-or-pork-roll-you-decide-new-jersey-poll-0 Pork Roll is beating Taylor Ham in the poll 52%-48% as it should be!
  16. As she gets more comfortable with guns, as she gains experience, as she learns new TTPs, as she sees what else is out there, she may decide she is OK with something other than a DA/SA pistol.
  17. Shitcan the Interceptor. It was already obsolete when it was initially fielded. 15 years of war have developed much better options at very affordable prices. Plate carriers are the way to go. The TAG/Shellback Tactical Banshee - as mentioned - is hard to beat for the money. There are a lot of quality options out there. Mayflower, MSA, ATS, Paraclete/Point Plank, Crye, SKD PIG, Mars, Tyr Tactical, First Spear, London Bridge Trading - all quality, but some will cost significantly more than others. Avoid Condor/5.11/Voodoo. They don't last. If you really want to, you can give me the money instead and then, the first time you really need it I will call you and say it's broken. I personally like ICW plates with soft armor backers. It makes the armor a little more comfortable and will spread any impact out over a wider area vs stand alone plate. Yes, plates are heavy. Unless you have $3k-$5k to drop per plate for cutting edge tech (and the contacts to get them) there is no way around it except the gym and cardio. Armor is not for everyone, but if you feel you need do, spend some $$ and buy quality. The mission drives the gear train.
  18. Agreed - but remember, software can be de-bugged and upgraded.
