I've used Crucible but haven't attended their classes. When I was there we rented the entire facility as a ramp up for a high level PSD down range. I've heard that they really improved the facility.
Also have trained at BSR but again we used the entire facility. Tom Bullins at Trigger time in Carthage NC is an excellent instructor, ran BSR for a while and is plank owner on the USMC FAST teams. I've been out there dozens of times and have brought Tom in for a variety of training evolutions. Good guy and knows his shit. Kyle Lamb used to use his facility as did Dave Harrington and some other guys. Also have used Va International Raceway for PSD driving, pursuit driving and other driving crap. Plus a bunch more... |

Oh come on, who doesn't want to blow a weeks vacation and $$$$$$ to go shooting. "Sorry kids maybe you'll see Mickey next year!" I could easily do the same to go play cops and robbers somewhere. |

What's your beef with Academi? I've taken a pistol course and carbine course there, and they were awesome. Instructors were expert and easy-going, let us do a lot of fun stuff. Nice campus, too. If I had the money I'd be down there every year.

Most people should take a retention class and a pistol class every once in awhile, but I'd rather run around in body armor I'll never wear outside the house with a carbine I'll never fire outside the house and shoot out bolt holes and windows at poppers

Weren’t these the schools that developed “Contractor Casual” dressing of 5.11 cargo pants & polo shirts? With optional plate carriers & LBVs (Load Bearing Vests, if they changed the term). Just in case. |
