Tactical Response at it again. Dangerous and Unprofessional ?

[Kirk Freeman]

Little known fact. Hitler didn't commit suicide. He was demonstrating that a PPK is just a tool.

Nietzsche called. He is working on his latest work Beyond Safety and INGO and he said that anyone who does not shoot themselves does not really train.

So, do I count as really trained?

Style? So, this is a style now? Which style is this? Moronic numbnuts style?

Look, there is joint and several liability in the gun culture. If some Tactical Practical Bearded Wonder wants to do something stupid, it should not be associated with guns.

One does not need dangerous recklessness of stomping on gun to accomplish any goal. It is simply stupidity masquerading as marketing.

Even Yeager disavowed stomping on guns. It's stupid. Don't do it. Don't defend it.

There is no logical reason to stomp on guns. If you do, you hurt the entire gun culture.

Kirk, I think you are right about stomping on guns being a bad idea and unsafe. It should not be done.

In the interest of furthering this discussion of what is safe and not safe, I would like to separate dropping and stomping. Let's say for a moment that the stomping issue is decided.

Myself, I see the place for dropping guns, I do not see the place for stomping on them. Obviously some folks on here see no place for either action.

Do you think that intentionally dropping guns, whether in training or practice is reasonable or dangerously moronic or something else?

(I was going to make a distinction between loaded and unloaded guns being dropped, but as we should all know, we treat them all like they are all loaded.)

You can be an instructor!

What's point of dropping a gun intentionally? So you can prove it won't discharge? I seriously don't get the point.

Steve Malloy called. He said unless you want to shoot yourself in the little gun writer, it's a bad idea.

I cannot understand why anyone needs to train to drop a gun. Switching to back up? Holster your primary. Out of ammo? Holster it. When is dropping a gun the only practical decision?

When you're being shot at.

 

[Dead Duck]

When you're being shot at and you need to run away and jump into a ditch like a *****!

FIFY





So when does the next "Gun Drop Training" class begin.
Will there be a beginning gun drop class and then move up to more experienced gun dropping classes? Will they be divided up into pistol drop vs rifle drop. I can't wait to start throwing my shotgun down.

Hey, if I'm on the stairs and need to drop my gun, do I try to throw it upstairs or downstairs or just over the railing? I want to make sure I do it right. Can someone call Yeager to check, please.

 

[Rookie]

When you're being shot at.

Do you follow up by diving into a ditch?

 

[Rookie]

And where does "dropping your gun" fit into "fighting pistol"? Isn't that contradictory?

 

[chezuki]

Or in my case, when you're retarded and forgot to top off your pistol mags before the next transitions box drill. Transitioned to the pistol and quickly ran it dry. Tossed the pistol and started getting the carbine back running while moving to cover.

Kirk may not approve of the words "transition" or "move", but I do not believe I had a beard at the time.

[Rookie]

Was a holster not available?

[vitamink]

That's too funny.

 

[chezuki]

Was a holster not available?

Sure it was. Dropping a pistol is MUCH safer than trying to holster it quickly.

 

[Rookie]

Sarcasm?

Serious question, did you have to practice dropping a real gun in order to drop a gun when required.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

Kirk may not approve of the words "transition" or "move", but I do not believe I had a beard at the time.

I only approve of "transition" when:

1. It references an APA to an IPA.

2. when it is said tactically as in "traaaaansition". It should be accompanied with flippy guns and suppressor burns on expensive tactical pants.
