We are doing it all wrong

[Reservoir Dog]

No, the Space Shuttle DoorGunner block of instruction takes up too much time...

You mean you won't be training like that during your upcoming Defensive Pistol course?

I want my $200 back!

LOL, you do realize that this post is going to come back and haunt you, right?

[deerslayer]

Wow. What about the camerman and anybody else behind the shooter who get swept every time the shooter does the tactical cartwheel?

You're going to make me do all kinds or crazy stuff, aren't you? Damn.

They are playing by "big boy rules" and are fully aware of the danger surrounding them.

CONTACT!

Yeah and when 2 or more of them attend an IDPA match they call it a "Gathering of Thoroughly Dangerous Men"

[deerslayer]

They'll get promptly thrown out of an IDPA match if they pull that crap...

[Guest dwrd]

Whenever I hear the word CONTACT again, I will start to laugh.

[Daniel]

on the sweeping people, it looked as if they paused to put the weapon on safe before every roll.

[Beretta Racer]

Screw that roll crap. A one-handed cartwheel is far more effective........

[Guest dwrd]

Were they putting it on safe, or using the decocker?

[Daniel]

no idea.

[Angus]

Well, I was considering one of Todd's courses, but I am wayyyy to fat to be rolling around on the ground.

But damn, if I get to go on the space shuttle for $200 I am sooo there........

[deerslayer]

On safe or decocked--either way, I don't care. I don't want them pointing it at me.

[Metalhead]

Methinks that the next meet & greet (giving that it is not on a day that I'm at work!) I'm going to randomly scream "CONTACT!" and see how many people start rolling around...

[Guest nofearracer]

That looks like a great way to get shot in the ass mid-roll.

Eh, better in the one that stinks, than in the one that winks.

Thread bump.I had to see this again to make sure I did not miss anything.

[Guest db99wj]

I missed this the first go around. Oh and the guy at about .42 seconds, appears to put the safety on right before he rolls. Oh and 1:34 and 1:48. Either decocker or safety.

[Guest SUNTZU]

Advanced tactical dumbass.

[Guest justme]

www.risks-inc.com Click on the videos and go to Advanced Tactical Pistol Training for Security Contractors.

those videos were although they were somewhat entertaining, which is why they use them to attract customers, because it just looks cool....

the forward rolls in the handgun video were just silly, like you're going to have time to do a combat roll under stress and then reacquire a moving target in time to avoid getting wounded or worse...they have been watching too many movies.

[Guest SUNTZU]

The only combat roll I'll be doing is if I trip running downhill away from whoever is shooting at me towards cover. I sure as hell won't be trying "combat rolls" towards someone shooting at me in the open.

[Guest db99wj]

[Guest slothful1]

To me, it just looks like it gives the BG a longer opportunity to lay down unanswered fire.

I figured it was intended to distract the BG with an impromptu interpretive dance.

[Guest SUNTZU]

Exactly.

[Guest mustangdave]

CANTACT!!! WTF?...and whats this Swabby, Squidley stuff...who are these ja-mokes
