Airedale Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 Someone has got to fabricate a target that replicates that roll. That would be more fun than any dropper/slider/star etc. Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

D.Hayden Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 I think it would be really funny.. if they moved the plates during the roll, like a person would be moving.. then the guy comes up and tries to find the target after leaving sight of it for so long.. see how long that takes.. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
el pres Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 (edited) Ah man, why did I have to read the comments ??? "Would a roll be appropriate when engaging with a carbine like an M4?" "These are training clips and we try to make things as difficult as we can and add in as much variation as possible." "Moving targets are harder to hit than stationary targets; real world if someone is shooting at you move! The roll is another method of moving to cover while making yourself a smaller target. It increases heart rate, make you sweat etc. which simulates the body's stress reactions." "Nice shooting. Also, the rolling is important between one shots for coordination reasons and to improve the accuracy level." These guys have obviuosly never shot a really fast USPSA swinger or drop turner !! Anyone here could put a mag in that rolling Armadillo !! What a bunch of ....... And if they had a match would they score the roll ??? Maybe a proceedural or lack of cover if your not tucked up enough ?? The one guy took a second to decide how he's going to do the roll ?? Another thing is that they are in the East where grass covers everything, try that in the West with the rocks and cactus spikes. Or if they want a ""real world"" situation they should be practicing on concrete !! In line with the great fighting techniques such as the "Cobra" and the "Dragon", we now have the "Armadillo".. Stage describtion: start in box A, a "Contact" signal draw and engage T1 between the eyes "only" then perform an Armadillo to position B and engage remaining targets between the eyes only !! Looks like a bad al Qaeda training video ?? Those guys did good agaist standing Marines ?? Edited September 22, 2008 by DIRTY CHAMBER Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neomet Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Combat Darwinism. I wonder who drew the short straw and had to stand there with the camera while the tumbling twits demonstrated the Stop, Roll, Get Your Ass Shot Off technique.

How about during transitions...DOWN RANGE! Notice the camera pans as the shooter moves. There is some body holding the camera. Uh, WTF OVER!

JThompson Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 For some reason when I watched that vid I thought about this... may be something to do with lambs to the slaughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anubis Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I find it hard to believe that these people actually think this is useful training, so much so that they have a 'company' offering said training. What absolutely blows my mind is that in the video you can see a part where the cameraman is actually downrange from the guy firing and is standing between targets the shooter transitions across. These people really need to stop before someone gets hurt or worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisStock Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 Combat Darwinism. I like that term Oh well, they've got their game, we've got ours. The biggest difference is that we stand a much better chance of walking off of the range when it's over instead of being wheeled off in a hefty sack with zippers.

Graham Smith Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 (edited) I suppose, if you had to get off a shot then had to get behind cover, this would be a way to get there and end up on your feet rather than facing down into the dirt. But I just got back from a two day defensive pistol course conducted by guys that mostly train swat and special ops, and if any student had tried something like this, they would have been forcefully ejected from the range. P.S. No one fires a single shot then moves unless they have a 5 shot J-Frame. Edited September 23, 2008 by Graham Smith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toolguy Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 That's why it's named "Risk Inc." It's for those cowboy action shooters who want to play Rambo action instead of cowboy action. At least they got the name right! They would have been better off to go into the tall grass and at least shoot from cover. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
