Indiana Run & Gun Project

Sounds very "EIB-ish."

Actually yes that is my thoughts...
Very EIB'ish...
The first one I run I am thinking most of the skill stations will be medically related tasks...

This looks like an absolute blast. I've done something similar at a friends house and it was aaaaay more fun than just punching holes in paper. I'm going to check it out on facebook and if there is an email list I'd like to be added to it.

For what it's worth, the last time we did our version, we used my 91/30 and it was an absolute riot.

Nice stuff HICKMAN. If I may ask, was the rifle, pistol, rifle transition just to practice it?

yeah, pretty much. When I was in the Army, we only had rifles and that was 20 years ago. So all of this is pretty new to me. We downloaded our mags to force reloads and transitions, so it worked out pretty well.

Really just getting used to a different way of shooting and gear, so that when I get to a class it's not all new to me.

 

[HICKMAN]

One of my hopes for his group is that maybe someone would bring it someplace else for people that hate FB ?

I know, I know, but it seems like when we tried to talk about it here on INGO, nothing ever happened. Now we talk about all kinds of stuff every night.

We'll make it a point to post event info here.

That would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks. Transitions are important, we teach them. I just wondered if I was missing something about going back to the rifle. Keep up the good work.

 

[HICKMAN]

nope, in my next run, I hit most of the close targets with pistol, long with rifle.

another where I only had a few rounds in each mag to force lots of reloads/transistions, there was a lot that didn't get recorded


May have to visit you guys when I get a little more mobile.

I would also like to join your group. I will watch this thread for updates, since I don't do FB. Thanks

Here is a couple of videos that I edited yesterday from the August event.

The song in this video has some language in the beginning, so be warned.

Sounds like a lot of fun. Just sent a request to join the FB group. Good way to get out & shoot some more.

My question to you on this would be...for someone who has not had basic military training or even a first aide class how would this work.

I'm sure that you could take a group of Vets no matter how long they have been out and they could muddle through it....but if you take the average every day guy who goes and buys a gun and wants to shoot in something like this, how would they even know where to start on a casualty assessment?

I love the idea honestly, it's a cool concept, kinda like CTT or WTT (common task training, Warrior Task Training) with shooting and moving thrown in. I know the last WTT course that I went throug at Atterbury was awesome. Had two rope bridges we had to cross, it got us out of a class room for the station to station, and in the field! Add weapons and shooting skills to that and

That is his intent (judging from our conversations). To create these stations with the Vets in the group providing training to those who aren't.

Ahh well see I'm down for that!!!

I'm sure we all have our skill books still....or can get some!

I've got PILES of training documents and a whole USB "gig stick" full of training powerpoints from the Corps. I've got combat life saver, counter sniping, room clearing, and dozens of others.

As long as folks aren't seriously "in competition" (where you tend to hoard knowledge rather than pass it on), these types of events can be great for exercising all sorts of useful techniques and working out TTPs for likely (or unlikely) real-world scenarios.
