Firearms

Here's a student's description of the training from Target Focus Training (TFT): ************************* Some of you may have seen the note Todd Davidson sent me a while back. Todd's a major account manager with Cisco Systems in Houston, TX. Here's what he said: "Yesterday I was a part of a pistol certification course put on by for a major US city Police Department SWAT team. "To make a long story short -- at the end of the course he was teaching disarms against a pistol touching your chest or back. He told all these people that to disarm someone from the front they first needed to get their hands up in a submissive position so they could then quickly attack the pistol...that this was the best. "At the end...he offered a chance at disarming him from the front where he had a live pistol loaded with liquid paint bullets. No one would try because they had no protective equipment for you. So I told him I would take him up on the offer and that I would not use his disarm. "Instead I used the disarm you taught us in TFT. "THREE TIMES I took the pistol away from him and did not get hit by any bullets. The guy was amazed he could not hit me. I just wanted to tell you the story to thank you for teaching me such real world applications and usable skills." ************************* If you have a dummy weapon, please bring it. Otherwise we'll use our fingers. We'll be out there rain or shine. Dress accordingly. Kick Butt Coffee afterward.
