I've created targets that are free to download. They can be printed on 11x17 paper. FPS-1 link FPS-2 Link

Thanks for the kind words. It was a fun group, and I enjoyed it very much.

I just received a payment from Steve B. Steve, I need an email address to process your ticket. You can email at lee@firstpersonsafety.com.

We're one month out from the class.

I received a Venmo payment from a person with the initials of "C. B.". I have their full name but no email address to which to process their order through Eventbrite. "C.B." if you see this, please contact me at lee@firstpersonsafety.com.

Eventbrite zapped the links to the other payment options. Here they are: Arrangements to pay the deposit or full class fee via cash, check, money order may be made by contacting the instructor at lee@firstpersonsafety.com. Payment may also be made via the following: www.venmo.com/firstpersonsafety (preferred) PayPal: lee@firstpersonsafety.com cash.me/$1stpersonsafety

The ball got rolling with the first ticket today. I'm excited about this class. I helped with Randy's class at TacCon last year, and I am looking forward to seeing more of his material.

I'm looking forward to this class. I'm hoping to get to meet the TGO training section faithful. Other payment options are Venmo and PayPal: www.venmo.com/firstpersonsafety (preferred) PayPal: lee@firstpersonsafety.com

Congrats to Cool Hand Luke on earning a Turbo Pin. Only eight people have done so.

Now I know why he was pointing and snickering, but then again, it could have been all of the other legit reasons to point and snicker at me.

Hi, I’m Randy and I’m going to gut punch you.

I will also offer a full endorsement of Aqil and Tiffany.

Paul Carlson was the host, and here is what he wrote about it: https://safetysolutionsacademy.com/lessons-from-a-negligent-discharge-at-mag-40/ John Johnston was in the class, and here are his thoughts: http://ballisticradio.com/2018/05/26/what-do-i-think-about-the-nd-at-mag-40/ Finally, here is a followup by Mr. Ayoob: https://www.backwoodshome.com/blogs/MassadAyoob/follow-up/

I'm happy to introduce the FPS-1 Target. A downloadable pdf file is available at the link for those who would like to use it. link

I thought you were in the class?

How'd the class go?

One of the Sig shooters has confirmed to me that blowing out the mags with compressed air and using some Remington dry lube solved their problem. One thing to keep in mind is that these mags were being constantly dumped. That's not going to happen in daily carry. It does indicate that the Sig mags are more susceptible to debris, but that can be minimized. I'm not in the market for the 320 line; so, this discovery really doesn't impact my decision; however, I will be watching the 365 with some interest.

Picked up off the deck, wiped off, filled, re-used.

I assisted Tom Givens with a Rangemaster Instructor Development Course this weekend in Texas. We were are Karl Rehn's range near Giddings, which I am told is the North Central Plains geographic region. The sandy dirt on the range choked numerous Sig 320 mags to death. One Magpul G mag briefly succumbed. The only OEM Glock mag to have trouble was a pre-2004 stamped “LE” mag. I don’t think this really says much about a carry pistol as you won’t be repeatedly dropping your mags in the sand while walking about, but those Sig mags just kept failing while the others ran.

Thank you for the kind words.

April 7 & 8, I was pleased to present a pair of classes in Waverly, TN. It snowed. In April. In Tennessee. Here is a review written by Dr. Sherman House.

Host classes.

Thanks. That review is from the Civilian Gunfighter blog. I think Dr. House's blog is Civilian Defender. Dr. House is hosting me this weekend in Waverly for both a pistol class and a shotgun class; so, hopefully he will have positive reviews.

Here is a course review of my Social Levegun block at TacCon. This class generates more conversation than any other class in my lineup, but unfortunately, it doesn't sell well. I was very pleased to have 18 students in the TacCon block.

Many big name instructors donated classes for this raffle, and I did too. It's your chance to attend the Tactical Conference or take a class for as little as $25. All proceeds support "The Mingle" which is an event for women in the self defense and shooting community. https://www.auctria.com/ev?site=4568008a-c3d3-4cb5-b323-d8efc2708952 ***Note: I have no financial interest in this event.
