Worse for me. I am maybe 25 minutes away and cant make it.
So lovemywoods and I are venturing up to NWI to check out the INGO shoot up there this Saturday. I'll be sure to bring back lots of pictures and videos!
I thought he shot you with live rounds.It's a thing we crazy people do in France during training.
We call it "tir de confiance", or "trust shot" in english.
It's to be used to shoot under stress, since if you miss you kill someone.
And the person being shot at learn to trust his partner's aim.
But safey first! Always use two vests just in case.
And ears and eyes protection of course.
The shooter is usually 15 yards away, with a .357 revolver shooting in single action.
It's lots of stress for both shooters but that's realistic training.
Not sure of the distance, but about that.
That's an old pic but that gives you an idea.
I love the chopper on the background, if you shoot that you are screwed too.
Where at up NWI?
Not sure how I missed this the first time.
How exactly is that a "trust shot"? I've seen trust shots before, but they normally amounted to a person standing next to a target, and the purpose was to NOT hit the person, thereby trusting in his ability to not shoot you.
This looks more like a bullet proof vest demonstration. All the trust is in the vest, not the shooter.
Maybe its so you can learn to trust that they won't shoot you in the face?

So, who is going to let me trust shoot them?
Sylvain is that a picture of you?
That's the point.
You put your life in the hand of the shooter and you learn that he can take the shot under high stress.
It also teaches the person being shot at what it feels like to have a gun pointed at you, and shooting live rounds, like you would experience in combat.
So, who is going to let me trust shoot them?
Sorry, but if I were the instructor both of the people picture would have failed the test.
Im being asked anytime I post pictures of people.
I will let you know when it's actually a picture of me.
You only fail if you dont let the other person shoot you, or if you shoot the person in the head.
