KGentry Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I thought this was a joke video when someone sent me the link but it is not. I cannot imagine what they were thinking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zxd9 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 The guy to camera mans left is not shooting but the one to his right is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
h2osport Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 WTH!!! What could be so important about the pictures? Even the shooters were thinking WTF! The one guy who turns around looks like he did not know what to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
00bullitt Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 That was a class by Tactical Response held here at South River Gun Club in Georgia. James Yeager is the owner and they used to teach a good class. This video has been posted all over the web in the last few days. Looks like they just crossed the line and cost themselves their reputation and alot of future business. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

al503 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 The guy to camera mans left is not shooting but the one to his right is. I think the guy to the left is going WTF?! Regardless, I don't care if the only people shooting were the ones on the end. He's still downrange when the range went hot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aristotle Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 That is just plain stupid and unnecessary. I would not be downrange of any of those shooters, they do not strike me as very "experienced" shooters. When that guy did a tap rack, he had the muzzle pointed directly at the instructor. What am I thinking, AD's don't happen to experienced shooters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xfactor Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 (edited) Did anyone get a load of some of the comments beneath the video on the link? Wow...! Some actually are defending this type of "training", and criticizing those voicing concerns as ignorant, and naive of real-world tactical requirements. Scary... I just joined Photobucket just so I could post the following comment: Scary that any irresponsible fool can call themselves a firearms "trainer" without any qualifications or sense... Anyone experienced with training and/or competition shooting has seen ADs go down range once in a while - even with experienced shooters, let alone these novices. It's bad enough that this happened, but to actually defend your school's actions here at this point is beyond irresponsible, it's reckless, and I'd be shocked if your attendance doesn't plummet, or that you're not shut down entirely Edited June 16, 2009 by Xfactor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WDB Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I'm kind of at odds with my thoughts and this post. On part of me says "that's probably one of the stupidest things I've ever seen" and the other part says, "well you must be pretty stupid too, cause last year you took a course and went 50 - 100 yards downrange to engage targets will the slower squads were behind you engageing their targets". This was during a combat assult rifle course and at the time I didn't think nothing of it, still don't. I guess I just trusted my teammates not to put one in my back or my chest as I running back uprange. Granted we probably had 10 -15 yard left/right seperation as opposed to 2 feet in the video.

KGentry Posted June 16, 2009 Author Share Posted June 16, 2009 Ok - I did not know about the other threads - I should have done a search - I think the thread should be closed since we all have the same basic opinion of what happened in the video. Mods - Please close. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz-0 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Before it is closed and locked. Google RF shutter release. $45 is a cheap price to not be shot in the head while taking an interesting picture. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
