Shane Parman, the newest instructor at Achilles Heel Tactical (AHT), outlines his journey from student to cadre member. His path involved completing foundational and advanced AHT courses, including the RDS Instructor Development program, driven by a private sector career requiring high-level skills. Parman emphasizes AHT's 'performance over promise' standard and offers training in Georgia and across North America.

This video introduces "The Chaos Drill," a new shooting exercise developed by AHT Instructor Paul Costa, building upon the AHT D.O.P.E. Drill. The drill utilizes a standard USPSA target, marked 5-yard increments from 5 to 25 yards, and requires two magazines. Participants, drawing from either OWB or IWB holsters, must fire three shots at the A-zone, then reload and fire two shots at the t-box headshot area. The drill is scored using Hit Factor (total points divided by total time), with points assigned to A (5), C (3), D (1), and a penalty for misses (-10). A hit factor of 5+ is considered good. The description also includes a link to AHT's training website.

This guide details the 'Dope Drill' from Achilles Heel Tactical, designed to evaluate a shooter's accuracy under stress at increasing distances. The drill involves firing five rapid shots at 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 yards. The Springfield XDM Elite 10mm is used to demonstrate how to execute the drill and interpret the results for improving fundamental shooting skills and understanding accuracy fall-off.
