If you ever have a chance, GO!

Lots of learning, lots of shooting, lots of fun.

I dont know much else to say about it. The $400 I spent on that class will serve me infinitely better than if I had spent $400 on another weapon.

So you mean no one almost got shot without the instructors stepping in much less pointing it out doing tactics that I've had Actual q course certified Green Beret's tell me they would trust less than half their A team to do?

Since you have forgotten to use any punctuation, I think I should answer no.

Hyped up on road dope, buddy?

Lol nope, we had a video not to long ago of one of their classes.  I can teach better tactics than were showed in that video.  Several people almost got shot, HORRIBLE trigger discipline, and they were doing an Austrailian peel, a move that, as I said, a REAL Green Beret said he MIGHT trust 5 guys on his team to do that with.  And these guys were very poorly doing it and almost shooting each other in the process.

An Austrailian peel is a way to break contact in a situation where you WILL get killed if you don't, so you use that tactic where you only MAY get killed.

These dopes were running it hard, fast, dumping lots of ammo, and doing it WRONG. yet this was one of their advertising videos.  The Green Beret I know is supposed to be asking his teammates which classes and companies are the best for us jackass civilians.

I'm not knocking their fighting pistol class, as I don't know dick about it.

And I do respect you and since you enjoyed and recommended it, that gives it a +1 in my book.  I'm just throwing out the info.

The Green Beret you know should ask the Green Beret that teaches for Tactical Response where you should train.

Difference being, that the one I know actually IS and has verified it.

I've seen a metric shit ton of actual real life high speed low drag guys trash Tac response.  

Their advertising video of people almost killing one another was enough proof for me that at the very least the instructors allow students to place themselves in situations that are needlessly dangerous.  

Best suggestion I've heard for training so far is OJT after the Q course

Safety was a major factor both before and during range time, so I can say for sure that safety is a priority for the TR folks.

As for the other.........the guys teaching the class have experience on a two way range and its a documented fact. I do not have experience on a two way range. Anything they can pass on from their experience, I am willing to try and learn.
