This video provides a comprehensive guide to low round count firearms training drills designed to improve fundamental shooting skills. Instructor Alyssa Seymour emphasizes that every trigger pull should have a purpose and advocates for data collection through mindful practice. Drills include a one-live-one-dry exercise, controlled double taps, progressive shot count drills, transition exercises, and moving drills, all aimed at building consistency and performance on demand with minimal ammunition expenditure.

This video documents an all-classifier match in USPSA, focusing on the shooter's personal journey to improve their scores and achieve A-class status. It highlights the challenges of competitive shooting, the importance of consistent training, and the mental game involved. The shooter revisits the 'El Presidente' classifier, aiming to demonstrate improvement over previous attempts and discusses strategies for future development, including balancing content creation with dedicated practice.

This video reviews the Coolfire Trainer system, a CO2-powered device that simulates recoil for dry fire training. The reviewer details the pistol and rifle kits, their components, installation process, and performance. While acknowledging the potential benefits for new shooters and instructors in bridging the gap between dry fire and live fire, the reviewer highlights significant drawbacks including the simulated recoil's difference from live fire, the pistol kit's frequent need for CO2 recharging, and the rifle kit's complex installation and potential compatibility issues. The system is presented as a fun, albeit high-maintenance, training tool rather than a replacement for traditional dry fire.

This video ranks the top five worst states for gun owners, considering not only restrictive laws but also the presence of a thriving shooting community, range access, and industry culture. It highlights Illinois, California, Hawaii, New York, and New Jersey as states with significant legal hurdles and limited opportunities for firearm enthusiasts, while also emphasizing the importance of community and fighting for rights.

This video provides a comprehensive overview of common concealed carry mistakes, categorized into gear, skill, and mindset errors. It emphasizes the critical importance of proper holsters with trigger protection, efficient draw techniques, and heightened situational awareness. The instructor, Alyssa Seymour, a seemingly experienced concealed carrier, also highlights the value of competitive shooting for skill development and recommends incorporating medical training alongside firearm proficiency.

This video breaks down 34 proposed ATF rulings introduced by new director Rob Cicada. The rulings are categorized into repeal, modernize, reduce burden, clarify, and align groups. Key changes include the potential repeal of the pistol brace rule, revisions to machine gun definitions to exclude bump stocks, modernization of FFL record-keeping with electronic options, and reduced burdens for NFA travel. The speaker, Alyssa Seymour, provides layman's terms explanations of these complex regulatory changes.

This video documents participants' experiences at the Tactical Games, highlighting challenges like gear failures, physical fatigue, and mental breakdowns. It provides insights into specific shooting stages, malfunction clearing techniques for pistols, and the physical demands of the competition. The participants share lessons learned, emphasizing the importance of preparation and adapting to unexpected issues.

This video provides an in-depth review of the B&T APC223 equipped with a Force Reset Trigger (FRT), specifically highlighting its performance and suitability for FRT conversion. The presenters, with significant experience testing FRTs, discuss the APC223's natural cyclic rate, its effectiveness on the slower spectrum of FRT performance, and the benefits of the Gen 1 platform for a softer shooting experience. They detail the modifications required by East Valley Tactical (EVT) for the FRT installation, emphasizing that it's not a simple drop-in part and involves milling of the upper and lower receivers. The review also touches upon the controversy surrounding Rare Breed triggers, which were used in this build, and their legal implications, while also mentioning potential alternatives like Partisan triggers. Despite some initial gripes with the reset's faintness on early versions, they note EVT's responsiveness and ongoing improvements to their FRT systems.

This video details a new strategy by Democrats and anti-gun lobbyists to enact sweeping gun control measures at the state level, rather than focusing on federal legislation. The approach involves passing numerous smaller, less publicized laws that quietly stack up, often framed as safety measures. The speaker highlights examples like waiting periods in Maine and magazine restrictions in California, emphasizing that these laws are difficult to challenge once enacted and can significantly impede the exercise of Second Amendment rights. The video urges viewers to stay informed about state-level legislation and actively engage with their representatives.

This video evaluates the viability of off-body concealed carry using bags, challenging the notion that it's inherently slower than appendix carry. The instructor emphasizes that bag quality and the deployment system are crucial for achieving acceptable draw times. Through live-fire testing with a shot timer, the video demonstrates that with the right bag and sufficient practice, proficiency comparable to appendix carry is achievable, negating the perceived disadvantages.

This video documents a USPSA shooter's experience at a match, focusing on mental approach and technical adjustments. Key takeaways include adopting a positive 'what to do' mindset, improving trigger splits, lowering the center of gravity for better movement, and maintaining momentum. The shooter also discusses strategies for engaging steel targets and efficient movement between shooting positions, aiming for consistency at a higher skill level.

This guide synthesizes competitive shooting techniques demonstrated by experienced shooter Alyssa Seymour in a USPSA match. It covers rapid target engagement, effective use of red dot sights, smooth stage movement with reloads, and the importance of analyzing performance metrics like hit factor and hit distribution (Alpha/Charlie). The advice is geared towards intermediate to advanced competitors looking to improve speed and accuracy under pressure.
