CQB Staircase Lesson

Hello Tier II and Tier III,

Got a few questions in last weeks post on footwork and I think this video will answer some of them. This will be a good refresher for those of you who have seen this. Studio has come a long way since this one! 

Thank you for supporting me and Vigilance Elite. 

NEW SRS Episode just cleared editing. Can't wait to share!

This one is going to open up some "what if's".

This video started with stairwells but progressed quickly.

Home Defense - Opening Doors Family Protection

Hello Tier II and Tier III!

I hope all of you are having a great week.

This is probably the most requested topic that we get on our Tier III lives and messages.

The "link to me" concept will be helpful for those of you who are interested in building a family protection mindset. It is simple and effective. You will retain mobility without losing track of your loved one at the same time.

We'll do more on this to follow up.

Thank you Patrons Adam Willis and Brian Ga...

CQB Footwork Applied to Doorways

Hello Tier II and III,

Here's a video on footwork applied to doorways. This stuff takes a while to digest and apply but will help you not get caught up in the fatal funnel upon entry. For you Patrons who have been around for a while and have seen this lesson last year, let me know what you pick up from watching it again with a fresh set of eyes. Footwork is one of the hardest facets to master.

We are filming SRS #014 tomorrow and can't wait to share this story! Been all ha...

Body Armor Carbine Stabilization

Hello Tiers II and III,

This video came from a discussion on a Tier III live chat a while back but should be revisited now that we have many new Patrons who probably haven't seen this one. The question was how to tighten up groupings while shooting offhand out past 60 yards and at a quicker rate of fire. The member who asked was hitting about a 4 inches off when shooting rapid fire offhand and was looking for more stability when picking up the pace. Keep it up, that's actually great sho...

Interview with Niรฑo Rodriguez Tonight

We did a press release that went to over 1000 new outlets covering the corruption of the Biden/Obama administration in regards to The Blackwater Massacre and no one picked it up. So I am going on other podcasts to get the word out. It is appalling that with all the media looking for factual corruption on Biden that not one network picked it up.  It goes to show you that EVERYONE in the media has a narrative. Cheers
