Bounding Drill - Ghost Firearms Training course

This video details the 'Combat Reload' drill, a critical task evaluation used by SOCOM units. The drill emphasizes quickly reloading a rifle under simulated combat conditions within a five-second standard. It covers tactical considerations like moving to cover or going to a knee, and the importance of practicing reloads with varying numbers of rounds to avoid training scars.

This video provides expert-level Close Quarters Battle (CQB) training for a 5-man SWAT team, led by instructors from Ghost Firearms Training LLC at Ben Franklin Range. It details critical techniques such as maintaining rear security, holding acquired space, dynamic entry movement, and prioritizing deep corner clearing. The instruction emphasizes teamwork, role rotation, and specific tactical maneuvers for room and stairwell clearing, highlighting the severe risks of neglecting these procedures.

The Blaze X shooting drill, as demonstrated by Pat Mac, is a dynamic course of fire designed to improve shooting proficiency from multiple positions and with different hand configurations. It requires starting and finishing in the center, engaging targets with two hands from the middle, and using only the strong hand when positioned to the left or right. The drill emphasizes returning to the center between each firing position and encourages efficient movement, with the hint in the name suggesting cutting corners to maintain momentum.

This video emphasizes the critical role of body movement and footwork in shooting. Instructor Pat Mac advocates for incorporating 'dance steps' and moving drills on the range, likening effective movement to that of a 'jungle cat' or 'greased butter.' He stresses the importance of proprioception and kinesthetic awareness, urging shooters to develop smooth footing and a strong sense of their body in space, especially when transitioning between cover. The instruction highlights that good physical conditioning directly impacts shooting performance and survivability.

This video demonstrates a fundamental doorway slicing technique for tactical entry. The instructor emphasizes a slow, deliberate approach, focusing on the opposite corner before initiating a 'slice' across the opening. The drill is designed to build speed and control through repetition, ensuring proper visual scanning of the doorway.

This video emphasizes the critical importance of realistic training beyond the square range, focusing on decision-making under stress. It highlights the benefits of force-on-force simulations, especially when integrated with injury simulation technology like AU Fire. This advanced training allows individuals to experience the physical and mental impact of injuries, forcing them to adapt and manage consequences, which is crucial for effective self-defense.

This advanced training drill, led by an expert instructor from Ghost Firearms Training LLC, focuses on clearing complex malfunctions on an AR-15 platform while simulating a downed non-dominant hand. The drill emphasizes using environmental leverage, such as a barricade, to perform magazine changes and chamber manipulations one-handed. It's designed to build proficiency under simulated high-stress conditions, crucial for real-world engagements.

This video demonstrates clearing a severe 'downed limb' malfunction on an AR-15, a drill designed by Ghost Firearms Training LLC. The instructor, exhibiting high authority, guides the viewer through the process, emphasizing the unique challenges this specific jam presents, such as the limited travel of the charging handle. The drill incorporates stress inoculation by simulating injuries.

This video demonstrates essential AR-15 malfunction clearing drills, focusing on double-feed and failure-to-fire scenarios. Professional instructors guide viewers through the 'Lock, Strip, Clear' method while utilizing tactical barricades for realistic training. The drill emphasizes rapid response and maintaining an effective shooting position under pressure.

This video demonstrates a critical AR-15 malfunction clearing technique taught by Ghost Firearms Training LLC. The drill emphasizes maintaining a high operational tempo under stress, focusing on quickly resolving jams through bolt lock, case extraction, and cycling the action to resume firing. The instruction highlights the importance of rapid, decisive action to overcome stoppages in dynamic shooting scenarios.
