So you can learn the "modern technique" of gunfighting, founded 40 years ago. LOL

And Chinese martial arts are 4,000 years old and some concepts are still relevenant today and will keep you alive

Cooper's Color Codes still makes more sense the "Spidey Senses" espoused by some of the modern gunkata type gurus.

Isn't the Mozambique drill almost second nature to a FAM? You probably could shoot it better in your sleep than most of us on the forum wide awake with a 2 minute warning.

Can't waste time with chest shots when people are sitting down or the from behind "hostage hold". Head shots


I was just playing with the words of "modern" and 40 years ago. Color codes dodescribe alertness perfectly.

I know but your word play for some of our literalists friends could hurt their brains or feelings.

No disagreement about the Codes. Just advocating for MDS's less fortunate members.

It's Labor Day with no Jerry Lewis so I just thought I help out.

I heard they were putting a new site in Richmond maybe a month ago.

I'll probably take a course there too, want to check it out. I dislike that most every shooting course want you to start with their most basic course and advance you one level at a time. I'll see if I can get into one of their more advanced offerings from the start.

No different than Apple making their music proprietary. It's all about the $$$$$

Absolutely.

I have a standing offer from a good friend to join Front Sight as a lifetime Ambassador member (whatever that means). But they have progressive levels for every discipline, so it's like three levels for each shotgun, pistol, rifle, etc. That's a lot of travel, but I think he said its (free?) some special deal, I didn't look into it, because of the distance. I know they have overhead and expenses, but I just want to take a super high professional class maybe just once a year. Perfect course is the High Risk Personnel (HRP) taught by Storm Mountain in WVA. It's a mostly pistol course, but covers rifle, shotgun, kidnappings, awareness, shooting in restaurants, from vehicles, etc. It's a great course, only 5 (full days) long, and a days drive from most anywhere in Maryland. I think it was $2K or $3K back when I took it (I got to go for free, as was all my training back then). My unit provided the ammo, and I brought my own weapons. They had loaner guns too. Great mix of 'operator types' and several rich guys.

Front sight is almost certainly too basic for you.. And the cost of travel makes it uneconomical.. Only way it works is to travel as a group and share costs..

However..puting a group together every now and then not a bad idea..

And for $1500.. I expect the good col.to make an appearance

After my visit there, that would be my guess.

Its a beautiful facility and the people are great, but the location isn't drawing the crowds.

Location is fine. Its the staff that most people complain about.....and the prices.
