Good sale from a reputable holster manufacturer. I own and recommend several of their products.

PSA: I don't know who needs to hear this, but your annual membership package at Whitehorse Tactical Fi****ms doesn't include John cleaning up the trash you were too lazy to pick up off the ground and place in the trashcan. You di*****ds are going to ruin a good thing.

Gear issues from a recent ladies pistol class:

- Left-handed shooter using a non-ambidextrous 1911 variant. It can be done, but it's not ideal. Shooter got an ambidextrous Kimber Mako R7 to finish the class.

- 2 out of 3 slide-mounted optics in the class had dead batteries. Pistol optics are amazing tools, but may require a little more end user maintenance than iron sights. Both shooters used iron sights that were visible through their optic lens.

- Almost all of the shooters had a bad habit of riding the slide home when chambering a round. This can lead to an out of battery gun, and should be avoided. Think of cycling your pistol slide like shooting a slingshot. You wouldn't gently ride your slingshot band forward. You would pull it sharply back, abruptly letting it go towards the back of your pull. This is not bad for your gun, and ensures that a round is properly chambered and slide is in battery.

Gun control laws don't protect you. They didn't stop this dirtball from bringing a handgun onto school property in St Clairsville last week, they only allowed prosecutors to file charges after the fact. Does your child's school have LE presence, armed security, or armed staff? Did you know that a concealed carry permit holder in Ohio can conceal their handgun onto school property as long as it does not leave the vehicle? If you have your permit, how would you have responded had you been in the school pickup line and witnessed this? If you don't have your permit, what are you waiting for?

From the article: "A homeless man from Belmont County is in jail Wednesday, after witnesses saw him loading a gun outside St. Clairsville Schools just before school was about to dismiss for the day. St. Clairsville Police Resource Officer Mike Duplaga tells 7 News the suspect, 18-year-old Elliot Blunk, is jailed on charges of inducing panic, aggravated menacing and illegal conveyance of a deadly weapon in a school safety zone."

I recommend Freeborn's book, Violence of Mind, in all of my classes. Here is a review I wrote when I took his handgun class back in 2018. From the article:

"... many today in the fi****ms training industry believe that you can look a certain way or perform certain actions to look "locked-on" or dangerous and deter criminals from selecting you as a target. Although these tactics may work for lower level criminals they likely won't if you find yourself in the crosshairs of a high order predator. If a high order predator has selected you he will spend time analyzing you for weaknesses and determining the best way to subdue you. One of your best defenses against analysis is unpredictability. This led to a long discussion about target selection versus target analysis... "

Big news if true. Super g**y.

Looks like G***k will redesign the large frame models to make the design resistant to tampering or allow use of the G***k “ switch”.
Nothing on G***ks website or social media but MRGUNSANDGEAR posted a YouTube video on his channel.
Stay tuned.

I had a great weekend attending training from Greg Ellifritz at the excellent Black Wing Shooting Center. Saturday was a medical class covering traumatic wound care and survival medicine. Sunday was a defensive shotgun class focused on manipulations and engagements at home defense distances. That’s the 3rd time I’ve attended Greg’s med class and 2nd time I’ve attended his shotgun class. Never hesitate to take the same class multiple times. There will absolutely be material that has changed, something you forgot, or something that resonates with you differently.
