Anybody know of any GOOD (meaning usefull training information) for the AR15. I find that a lot of the videos out there are just guys talking about what they've done and where they've been. I'm looking for something one can use as reference in good tactical training. Thanks Rick |

Forget the videos. What you need is a good course. Then for reference material after the course (and some pre-study before it) I'd recoomend Jim Crews's "Some of the Answer: Urban Carbine", and Jeff Gonzales's book Combative Fundamentals, An Unconventional Approach . |
His ability to teach - there are alot of instructors out there, but not all of them can teach.

The Kelly McCann/Jim Grover videos are very good. www.paladin-press.com/detail.aspx?ID=856 |
Blackwater.... Gunsite...... Thunder Ranch..... There are a ton of local (I call em' "Homegrown") carbine classes offered by name brand instructors all over the country. Pat Rogers, John Farnham, etc travel all around to teach. Folks may argue about who is the best instructor/school, but, the bottom line is to get training from one of them. I thought I was a competent pistol shooter, then I went to SigArms for training. After that, I knew where the bulk of my firearms dollars were going to go...... |
I see your in IL. Boon County Sherrif Office IIRC bring Pat Rogers in every year or so for a carbine class. As someone said before - he is the Yoda of carbine training. FIRE Institute in Pittsburg, PA isn't too far away, and Jim Crews might have some classes in your area. |
