He also trained most the San Antonio swat team.</div></div>
This is actually the only part about this whole thing that concerns me in even the slightest.
On a serious note...
Dennis, did HE tell you he trains the SWAT Team or did you come upon this information? Does he do it as part of a company, contract or out of the good will of his heart.
I am more than slightly concerned because it is not uncommon for someone to lie about their past/training in order to secure a contract. Many outside of the military don't take the time to verify it and "followers" around the water cooler don't have the means. Now if it's some drunk in the bar telling storied about this adventures into Laos and Cambodia, then I really don't give two shits. When you believe it and repeat it, it only makes YOU look like a fool. However if this is a LE Trainer who is making shit up, then he needs to be vetted, and when it's found that he is lying he needs to be burned at the stake.
Now regarding the bootlace technique......
It does nothing more for you than the push/pull of the support and firing hand in the isosceles and weaver.
You boldly state I should get out from behind the keyboard and shoot at 100 yards. I hate to break it to you, but I fire more rounds in one year than many police departments. We have plate racks at my home range from 100-375. With a 45acp Glock I have no problem dropping rounds into the 100 yard plate strong side only, once I get my holdover. Trijicon sights are a little coarse for that work, but it's not a big deal. The state academy's qualification course requires combat shooting at 50 yards. I have cleaned it more times than I can count. So I do know my way around a pistol. I was multiple award pistol expert when I was still in the Corps...so I have been able to shoot them for some time.
I also find it funny that you take the classic bullshit artist's exit when asked who this guys is. It would be a rather simple exercise for me to verify the veracity of his claims. <span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="color: #CC0000">In fact regardless of your BS answers I may still try to get a hold of the Tactical Commander of the San Antonio Team to see if he knows anything about boot lace.</span></span>
Dennis, there are scores of guys on here who know me personally and know my background. Some have served with me. Some have shot matches with me. No one knows you. Your claims smell like the same bullshit that we have heard before and <span style="text-decoration: underline"><span style="color: #CC0000">you refuse to give up information that can verify them.</span></span>If it wasn't for the SWAT Team comment I would have just chalked this one up to another internet train wreck. </div></div>
Cleared my head out in the sticks and had some time to think about this all.
R.Q. being his initals and his CS being "Q" is not enough for ID'ing someone?
After all,would everyone want their name being broadcast all over the internet?
Not trying to start shit,just asking.
I came here for some info about my Lapua and found it,torque specs that even Savage would not tell for over a week.
I got it here within minutes reading someone elses thread.
Gunbroker "experts"* did not know.
I did not claim to be a vet.
I wanted to join the Marines with my cousin straight out of high school
but my dad was sick and needed me to help run the family business.
I do respect your sacrifice.
Maybe I should have asked permission before posting about the lace or have asked anyone if they ever tried it rather than suggesting it was gospel.
All I know is, it worked for me.
So,I am sorry I ever cast a shadow on your door.
I wont post anymore and just read,after all is that not the idea of the ridicule?
Mods,you can poof,delete my account.
Life is too short and my blood pressure too high.
You guys have a good one and I do thank you all for your service.
PS
Just to let you know I do more than say thank you to vets.
I have been giving away hunts to active duty military members that I dont even know.
One is a guy that takes apart IED's,him and his dad came last year for a few days and missed a big one
but took a few axis does home.
Since this is such a tough crowd about conformation and already thinks I am full of shit.... I will disclose his name, Clint Easterling.
I now am looking into the wounded warrior thing to provide a hunt to a deserving guy.
I am not trying to be a suck up by telling you this,
just hoping that the next misinformed guy that comes along does not get run off like a red headed stepchild.
