Sometimes, on mornings where I don't have a lot to say, or am in a hurry, I can just shunt you over to the great content they're putting out:
- Kathy, who has just cranked off a chain of great posts on her blog, has an excellent response to someone who writes that she's had a concealed carry permit for years, but has only carried a gun a couple times, and wants to overcome her uncertainties.
- Don has an ongoing series of posts on "wooden swords and laser guns", or dry-fire practice. He's got posts up on his experiences and observations with the yellow plastic 5.11 Glock training barrel and the SIRT laser trigger trainer. (I swear as soon as I can get my hands on one of the M&P ones, I'm dropping the coin.)
Did shoot a LEO training device once that could tell when the trigger was pressed and what the barrel was pointing at before, during and after. it was pretty insightful. The scenarios where a hoot.
ReplyDeleteThat was a helluva team that Rich Lucibella put together.
ReplyDeleteWe could still put together a traveling show, betcha.
If you get a SIRT pistol, check out LASR software, it's a really effective shot timer and target software! For less than you pay for one of the nice the Laserlyte targets (which work with the red SIRTs) you get so much more like 9 targets of your own choosing, training analysis, and called targets.
ReplyDeleteI have been writing my own software along the same lines. Fun stuff, and makes the SIRT much more effective.

ReplyDeleteHmmm, oh, we could list a few things.
Simple enough, Tam: Knowledge, character and a way with words.
ReplyDeleteHelluva note, though. Hard to believe that it's been over fifteen years since I was inveigled into that deal. Been a lot of fun though, and I'm still learning new things.
