Don't forget the cowboy boots and plaid.Are tats and beards required for this course?
So long as all the participants know this is just tacticool fun, well then live and let live.

The heck am I looking at?
Is that actually a revolver with a 3d printed surpressor and 3d printed grips?

I think longmire pulled off the tactical vest and lever gun better. Looks like a fun course. Wonder if .22 lever guns would be allowed. Cheaper to shootDon't forget the cowboy boots and plaid.

I was going to mention I have seen lever gun classes before, including yours at TacCon in 2018 IIRC. I think most people train with Mr. Costa because of who he is, not necessarily what you are going to learn.I've been teaching a levergun class for quite a while. It generates a lot of discussion, but outside of a panic in VA a few years ago, it doesn't sell well. I've designated it as a contract only class now.
I've only seen snippets of video from Mr. Costa's class. In one, he was making loading a round much more difficult than it actually is, but perhaps his technique was gear driven due to a specific issue with the rifle he was using.
What exactly is happening here?
Aside from the bickering if this is stupid or not.
Are there any benefits to using a lever gun in a tactical situation? Don’t get me wrong training with a tool is great just like you train weak hand. I was just trying to think if besides necessity there was a reason to grab your lever instead of modern semi auto.
While an AR is a great tool there is nothing wrong with grabbing a Lever-gun either.Aside from the bickering if this is stupid or not.

That's what makes me cringe every time I see these hydro-dipped Franken-guns with tacticool rails.I certainly appreciate the cool factor. It's quite romanticized in the movies, especially when hot chicks are shooting zombies in slow motion with cool leverguns.
Chris Costa is an excellent shooter and a beyond real instructor, both in firearms instruction and general life advice and training.. You can knock him all you want for pointing in airsoft gun around in Japan because that’s what they wanted, or creating a tactical lever gun course, but I encourage you to consider attending a 3 day course of his before you do.
Quoted for truth.I don't know much about him other than he worked for Magpul and took a lot of **** for being in the Coast Guard. Most of the videos I see of him are just him having a good time... especially when he firs started posting videos of his modified lever guns.
I never heard of Costagate until this thread and that video is simply a non-issue and more proof that the shooting community as a whole likes to eat itself alive whenever possible.
I liked Costa's Easy Day movie...
