Save me!!!

Being an RSO on the range with people who think they know how to shoot but haven't touched a weapon in YEARS

 

He looks constipated

 

Lol

 

Its not, but he won't listen. He's one that says "I know what I'm doing! I've been shooting for years!" and obviously he doesn't.....barely qualled. The other 2 listened and both got expert.

 

If his grouping is near the stomach and intestine area... go tell him to take a bathroom break.

 

he was all over

 

I have to quote this again. It's the emoji that has me cracking up. Love it.

 

Vietnam era holsters. They shooting M9?

 

I wanna know where I can get me one of those fancy-shmancy outfits they’re wearing. Lol

 

I don't know a whole lot about the military so let me ask a question: what environment is "gray" a good camouflage for? Seriously interested in knowing.

 

TJ Hooker style stance.

 

Hmmm...that guy in the left seems to be using isoceles stance which is why he's hunched. I've seen many military personal doing that. The middle and right are using weaver which doesn't really allow the hunching unless you really want to be uncomfortable. I prefer weaver myself. More stable and comfortable. I've been told it's old school and isoceles is what's preferred. By whom? I don't know.

 

I’m running into this mentality all the time. We call em TWADies:
T hats
W hat
I
A lways
D one

I’ve had to explain to quite a few people through the years that there’s a difference between having 30 years experience and having 3 years, repeated 10 times!

 

The Widow Maker holster....yes, sir, they are

 

join the military, become a pilot, load matter or some other part of the air crew....BAM! Flight suit!

 

gray???? who wears gray??

 

old school belts and bianchi holsters..lol...damn that's some 80's gear right there.

 

We teach this:

The isosceles because we want your plates to the threat/target.....more protection.

We used to teach the Weaver....most old school military do somewhat of a combo of the 2. The guy on the left was tired and his legs sore from locking his knees. He literally had no bend at all in his knees....which we don't teach that. Like I said above.....these guys sit in a class before qualifying and still DO NOT listen and do their own thing....

 

WOW! How did he not fall on his face bent over like that? I use Isosceles when I shoot, but you have to bend your knees. This reminds me that I need to hit the range soon before I have to requal in a few weeks.

 

I didn't get take a pic of our new kid we had shooting....THAT was scary.

 

Understood. I didn't know he had his knees locked. I guess civilians wouldn't be concerned about plate protection. Maybe weaver would be ideal for civilians due to possibly giving a smaller target since the body would be slightly turned. I could also move a lot faster forward or backwards just as fast as laterally in a weaver. I seem to fatigue a lot faster in an isosceles stance faster than a weaver.

 

Curious as to the yds to qualify. Two or three different?

Those holsters....wow.

 

7yds, 15yds, 25yds

 

Personally even in civilian world i still wouldn't do weaver....but that's me.

 

The old German officers uniforms were gray

 

Maybe the gray wearer is trying to tell you something

 

Awe....well we see how well it worked for them overall huh?

 

Exactly
