GENERAL INFORMATION:
I travelled to Indianapolis, Indiana to conduct a Tactical Rifle Instructor course. The weather worked out and the temps were ten degrees cooler than Texas.
CSAT Shooting DVD’s
We just started filming my first set of Operator Level Rifle and Pistol DVD’s which will be on sale shortly. I have watched a few shooting DVDs/VHS tapes in the past and my goal is to set a new standard in information delivery and training.
The DVD’s, will containthe “Standards,” why they exist and how to practice and perfect them. I will also discuss safety, gear set-up, target selection and other critical areas for new and old shooters. If you wish to attend my instructor level classes, it would be a good idea to purchase the appropriate DVD and practice the drills before you come to the class. This way you can focus more on the instructor portion and not just shooting the standards.
I will post a website where they can be found next month.
Leadership and Training For the Fight/The Tactical Trainer
Skyhorse Publishing has just picked up both books for editing and publication into one package and it will be available in Spring 2011.
MONTHLY INSPIRITATION
I commend TIME magazine for printing this picture and it tells the story of why Americans get involved to help develop and secure other countries in the world.
A Taliban Commander passed judgment on this girl’s actions of running away from an abusive husband. Her brother-in-law held her down while her husband cut off her ears and nose. Theindividuals that did this aresavages at best.
For the liberal scum of our country that say we should not get involved in other countries affairs, look long and hard at this picture. If we do nothing, the men that did this will continue to mutilate, maim and kill innocent people. Further, they will continue to breed, multiply and spread their warped version of justice to those they oppress. If we do not help to stabilize the areas where these cowards live, then we permit them a sanctuary from which to safely plan, operate and carry out this savagery abroad, to include our shores.
In the case of the Taliban, they can destabilize a region and every country that surrounds the county they are allowed to occupy.
The men that participated in this act need to be hunted down and shot in the face. Anyone or village that supports them needs to be erased from the map. They should be fair game for Hellfire missiles or special operations assault or sniper teams. You cannot reason with them, it is best to just stop their gene pool from spreading. Any religion that supports or condones this type of behavior is not a religion, but a homicidal cult at best and needs to be dealt with accordingly.
As an American, I believe we have a duty to try to protect and stabilize countries that request our help. We must offer to educate other countries in this world that are not as fortunate as the United States. We need to invest the time and effort tohelp develop and strengthen their infrastructure. We must also help them see the light as to the value of human life, so they mayevolve, help themselves and protect their citizens. Many times just the interface with our military personnel and bases have an incredible impact on local populations.
If once we try and they do not rise to the necessary level,then it is simple. We simply make a choice as to stay and continue to try or to leave. If they are not ready now, maybe they will be on another day.
In the end, we must at least try…..
Reference the Mosque…
Reference the Mosque controversy, it goes to show that the president is an out-of-touch arrogant liberal who lacks a spine. Nancy Pelosi’s comments reference investigating anti-Mosque critics, are Hitler like. Californians need to stand up and oust her or accept that her words are theirs.
Prepare to vote America. Isolate the president America to save our country. The personthat liberal dumbasses in America elected president is sowing the seeds of our destruction with HIS acceptance of Islam. Further, Islam needs to stand up and condemn the attacks on our country…. or silently they condone it. If they condone it, they are the enemy. There is no middle ground.
Finally, we need to start a grass-roots movement to crush the liberal media. Boycott any business or corporation that takes out advertising in those social rags and put the financial screws to them. Unfortunately, those that work in these organizations (media) need to lose their jobs and lifestyle and suffer for their support of a corrupt institution.
Finally, our President has taken more vacations than any American in recent history. Maybe he should take a two-year vacation to allow our Country to get back on the right track….
COURSE UPDATE(S):
We are working on updating our course list and schedule for 2011. My goal is to standardize all my classes and clearly delineate civilian and law enforcement courses. If you have an interest in seeing one presented more often, shoot me a note. I might simply keep track on a dry erase board and plug one in should a time slot come available.
TRAINING:
Shooting DVD’s to be out shortly….
RANGE UPDATE:
Logging has begun.
The above area is left of the 500 yard berm on the Sniper Range the trees in the back ground are on the main creek. We will prep it shortly for a replanting.
Should an agency or group wish to rent the facility, feel free to contact us for rates. This includes the ranges, new property, classroom and bunkhouse.
CLASSROOM/LODGE:
NO UPDATES AT THIS TIME…..
EQUIPMENT:
I pulled my deer cameras and sent them back toMoultriefor repair. The view screens went out. The humidity down here is tough on them. To my surprise, the company replaced both cameras with new ones at no charge. This is outstanding customer service and support.
PATROL INCIDENT GEAR (PIG)
I have had the opportunity to work with a PIG-Patrol Incident Gear plate carrier recently during a six-day Tactical Rifle Instructor class and found the vest to be clean, light and ergonomically adjustable to every shooter.
The vest can be found at:
Prototype GAT for use with pistol mounted X300 light
I have been working with Dave Biggers from XS sights to develop a snap on window tool for use with the pistol. I shot it on my Glock .357 and it held to the light. I was able to break a car side window in Indianapolis while at the range (target vehicle) and it went through with ease and the light did not come off the gun. More testing to follow…..
HUNTING UPDATE:
None noted, too much logging going on…
READING/MISC. INFORMATION
None at this time. I do have books stacking up…
CLASS PAYMENTS
In the future I will request payment in full by either check or Credit Cardfor classes as I am doing double accounting when I take deposits.
IN CLOSING
Thanks and we look forward to seeing you all soon.
