Testing New Mag Carriers With An El Prez

Alyssa Seymour shares key lessons learned during her first year of USPSA competition. She emphasizes understanding the rules for strategic advantage, mastering stage planning, and improving reloading efficiency. Repetition through dry fire is crucial for building muscle memory, allowing focus on strategy during matches. Developing shot-calling confidence and pushing limits in local matches are vital for growth. Skill development, proper gear management, and self-analysis through recording are also highlighted as essential for success.

This video demonstrates a rapid-fire shooting drill executed by a skilled shooter, completing the course in 7.31 seconds. The drill involves engaging multiple targets and performing a slide-lock reload mid-sequence. The shooter's performance is validated by checking target hits within the 'A' zone, showcasing advanced accuracy and speed.

This video showcases a competitive range day between Appalachian Smokewagon and Gravy, featuring AK platform rifles and pistols. The competition includes engaging steel targets at various distances and timed drills using a PACT shot timer with a focus on A-zone hits. Appalachian Smokewagon ultimately wins the session, demonstrating proficiency with both rifle and pistol.

This video documents a "1,000 Round USPSA Training Day" featuring the Glock 17 Gen 5.

Lucas Botkin trains for USPSA competition at GlockStore Nashville, utilizing customized Glock 17 Gen 3 pistols with Trijicon SRO optics. The session highlights advanced techniques like high-speed reloads, target transitions, and movement, alongside troubleshooting a mechanical failure due to a worn slide release after extensive use. Analysis focuses on shooting stance variations and critical wrist angles for safety during rapid shooting.

Ben Stoeger, with over 500,000 rounds through Glocks, advocates for a minimalist maintenance approach. He recommends cleaning slide rails and the feed ramp with a light oil application every 5,000 rounds, emphasizing that proactive parts replacement is generally unnecessary due to the platform's inherent reliability. Optics-equipped Glocks may require slightly more frequent attention.

Lucas Botkin announces his resignation from T.REX ARMS, the company he founded, citing core values and personal growth as primary drivers. He details the company's origins, his evolving ownership stake, and significant disagreements with partners, particularly concerning business ethics and perceived double standards. Botkin also touches on a mishandled harassment incident and his future plans to build new companies from the ground up.

Lucas Botkin demonstrates essential pre-trip preparation for tactical gear, focusing on camouflage techniques for AR-15 style rifles using spray paint and magazine identification with colored tape. The guide covers organizing batteries, checking weapon accessories like slings and optics, configuring tactical helmets with hearing protection, and assembling a Spiritus Systems plate carrier. This methodical approach ensures readiness for training sessions.

Lucas Botkin introduces a new T.REX Arms prototype rail featuring a 1.65-inch internal diameter, specifically designed to house suppressors up to 1.5 inches. The rail employs a direct thread mounting system for accessories, avoiding clearance problems often encountered with M-LOK when a suppressor is tucked. This design facilitates 'OG Honey Badger' style builds, with an anticipated release early next year.

Lucas Botkin of T.REX Arms conducts a rigorous live-fire test of their new metal prototype AR-15 rail. The test focuses on structural integrity and heat dissipation, with the rail demonstrating impressive thermal management, remaining cool enough to touch after multiple rapid-fire magazines, even with a suppressor attached. This experimental approach highlights the product development process for firearm components.
