Here is a review of our last 2 training modules by another student.

Have fun, Chris!

Hey Thanks Ray. Should be a blast!


When are you heading back out to Vegas? Im going out in March to finish the Tier 1 cert. and I'd like to go out in the fall for the Tier 2 or Advanced Carbine.

So far, I am planning on heading out in May, Aug and Sept.  G will be joining me in Sept for a week out there.  G and I better see you out there in Sept!

In Sept. I plan on attending the International Combatives Seminar hosted by Dennis Martin in the UK. Im also gong to Montreal for a Combatives seminar either in Sept or Oct so I dont think I will make it then. I'll catch up with you somewhere soon.

Busy guy.  I will see you in June for FwF Gen II upstate.  I will pack a few Teds, just stay off of them, you pervert!

Don't be a stranger, let me know when you come downstate, beers on me.

Actually I wanted to speak to you about doing a course at your driving school. Denise and I both want to take a course and you are the man to talk to. Any suggestions?

Call me this weekend.

Guys, the FOF drills will be held before the Workshop (11:30-12:00) and is restricted to those who attended the December Close Tactical Shooting Workshop. I do not want to spend a whole lot of time on this since we are planning a FOF only workshop for later in the spring.

Thanks,
Chris

Cut off date is feb. 8th for this class. At this time I have only received a few e-mails, if I do not get
at least ten people for this class it will be cancelled.

Thanks
chris

I'm comming, and will try to light a fire under some of the locals.

Ok guys we are all set to proceed with the Feb. 18th class!

It's always harder to enroll people in Physical Defense Classes/Unarmed Combatives classes than it is to enroll people in firearms and weapons classes...

Why is that?

Because of two things. 1) It takes some balls to check you ego at the door and begin anew to learn something you know you may not be good at. Starting at the bottom sucks. 2) It can be hard work physically and mentally (as you will see). For some reason a lot of guys who I talk to and know seem to think a real confrontation isn't going to be much work- they will just out draw the prison hardened x-felon and shoot him into the deck....well, lets let them think that. I have never been able to change these peoples minds and only wish them the best and hope they never run into a bad situation.

A good reason to possess unarmed skills is integration of fighting platforms. Later this spring when we can be outside more (April/May) we will conduct a 4-6hr. FOF workshop. This workshop will focus on converting your PFC and other firearm skills we have been working on into man on man FOF drills. After this our next progression will be to integrate our Unarmed, Firearms and Contact Weapon skills into FOF drills- the closest you can get to a REAL FIGHT in training.

Not every situation requires ballistic counseling or the use of your tactical folder or fixed blade EDC (Every Day Carry) knife. Possessing the ability to transition from platform to platform or force option to force option as a dangerous situation unfolds is the mark of a true warrior and student of combat. This is the essence of PROTOCOM (Progressive Total Combat) and that is what we train for.

See you all in a few days.

Equipment:
Mouth piece if you have one- not necessary- user preference
Groin Protector
Blue Gun or Firearm Simulator- I will have a few
A willingness to learn!


Regards,
Chris Fry

This is a tried and true technique!

The TRT (testicle relocation technique) certainly has its benefits.

All I can say is DOOOOOOOOHHHHHHH! THUD! AAAAHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGggggg
My kitbag is packed and ready to go.
Mouth protector CHECK
CUP.....                 CHECK
Airsoft  USP          CHECK
Airsoft FN P90       CHECK
Face Mask              CHECK
TESTICULAR FORTITUDE   CHECK
I guess we're ready to go.

Guys, the FOF airsoft drills will begin at 11:30.  We are going to run just a few evolutions. This training is for those who attended the December Close Tactical Shooting Workshop as I cannot spend a lot of time re-teaching skills in order to properly participate in the FOF Drills.

Thanks,
Chris

I am planning on arriving at the range at 11am if anyone wants to shoot the shit and/or look at new knives and guns before class. See you then!    

Have fun today fella's. Wish I could be there. Oh yeah and dress warm

Today is the INDOOR module. Not a pleasant day outside.
