CCW Won't Protect You!

Re: CCW Won't Protect You!

Actually, I thought it was very informative. Ive taken a fair amount of handgun training, courses in which you shoot 7-800 rounds in a weekend. Kind of figured I was well trined, but that was a wake up call.
 
Re: CCW Won't Protect You!

This propaganda has been out for years. The shooter comes in and takes out the instructor and then zones right in on the only person in a lecture room of maybe 20 students that has a firearm...THAT'S realistic *sarcasm* put 19 more firearms in that room and see if the shooter walks out...put that one person in a random spot and see if the shooter walks out.

Also, look at the length of the shirts that these folks are wearing. Jesus, they are more like dresses than shirts. Be smart with your carry protocol and familiar with your rig.

Don't get me wrong...training is IMPERATIVE, however so should truth in journalism.
 
Re: CCW Won't Protect You!

Absolute hack job.

First is the gunman are trained cops that know who the ccw is and where they are at and they target them.

All the ccw people I know that actually carry daily put quite a bit of work into it.Not airsofters with a quicky course.

It's not like the movies but that was a very slighted piece with an agenda.
 
Re: CCW Won't Protect You!

Ok. Lesson learned. If I spend a few hours training people to draw from a clear holster and shoot, then put a big baggy shirt on overtop it and throw them in a crisis situation...they will fail. Got it. Thanks for nothing.

Just look who the YouTube host of the video is, VPC Videos = Violence Policy Center, one of the most anti-gun organizations on the planet. They wouldn't tell the truth about guns if their lives depended on it.
 
Re: CCW Won't Protect You!

Granted there was propaganda, but I think yall missed the critical point ...that with out a lot of regular training you tend to lock up in crisis. Ive read of that in other articles, by those who werent shitting propaganda...this one just elaborates on the point. Just gotta seperate the wheat from the bullshit.

And keep current w/ training.
 
Re: CCW Won't Protect You!

All the training in the world may not prepare you for a real life situation. I agree that you can't over train, but you never know how you will really react when the shit hits the fan.

The video was garbage IMO. As stated before, two hours of handling a gun and throwing them into a situation is BS. They stacked the cards against these kids, and exploited it for thier agenda. Would they have shown it if a kid sat by the door, knowing that an "assailant" was coming in, and popped him before he got the instructor?
