Check Drill

This training drill, led by instructors with Special Operations backgrounds from GBRS Group, focuses on the critical CQB skill of transitioning between a rifle and pistol. It emphasizes slowing down to perfect weapon manipulation, understanding correct 'holds' for different distances, and prioritizing smooth, repeatable movements over raw speed. The drill utilizes platforms like the Sig Sauer P320 and MCX, along with accessories such as Aimpoint optics and weapon-mounted lights.

This guide, based on instruction from DJ Shipley of GBRS Group, details a high-performance firearm grip technique. It emphasizes precise hand placement, knuckle alignment with the pistol's spine, and a solid mating of the support hand to maximize recoil control and shooting platform stability. The technique is crucial for efficient follow-up shots and overall firearm control.

This video from GBRS Group, featuring DJ Shipley and Cole Fackler, addresses concerns surrounding the Sig Sauer P320. Through detailed analysis of viral incident footage and a GBRS course incident, they demonstrate how many perceived P320 'discharges' are actually human-induced errors during re-holstering, often caused by improper finger placement interacting with the slide. The instructors emphasize the importance of deliberate re-holstering techniques and proper trigger discipline to maintain safety and confidence in the platform.

This guide details a cold-weather concealed carry draw stroke technique from GBRS Group. It emphasizes the importance of a deep grab on garment hems to prevent snagging and the need for deliberate action to clear clothing. Consistent hand placement at the body's center line is crucial for a smooth master grip acquisition and overall draw speed.

This guide details proper trigger finger placement (TFP) for handguns, emphasizing biomechanics and recoil management. Instruction from DJ Shipley of GBRS Group highlights how incorrect finger placement can lead to off-center shots. Key takeaways include aligning the bore axis with the forearm and centering the trigger finger's knuckle joint on the frame for consistent accuracy.

This video from GBRS Group explains the ballistic principles of deviation and deflection. Deviation is defined as a projectile passing through an object, while deflection is a contact that disrupts or changes trajectory. The demonstration uses 5.56x45mm rounds impacting pillars to illustrate these concepts, showing how fragments can cause minor disruption without lethal effect.

This video demonstrates universal shooting standards, emphasizing under one-second engagement times from high and low ready positions. It showcases drills like the Bill Drill and a 3 Body, 2 Head sequence, highlighting efficient weapon manipulation and accuracy with a custom AR-15 build featuring an EOTech optic and GBRS Hydra Mount.

This guide, based on instruction from DJ Shipley of GBRS Group, details the critical importance of proper posture while wearing body armor. It emphasizes standing upright and squaring plates to the threat to maximize ballistic coverage, contrasting this with the dangerous practice of leaning forward, which can expose vital areas. The instruction highlights techniques for effective protection in tactical scenarios.

This GBRS Group video emphasizes mastering carbine reloads by prioritizing proper technique over raw speed. It highlights the critical importance of a firm, forward support grip (like a C-clamp) for weapon control during CQB and high-stress scenarios, warning against sacrificing fundamentals for fast 'par times'. The correct sequence involves sending the bolt, moving the support hand forward, establishing a solid grip, and then re-acquiring the target.

This video showcases an advanced tactical training session led by an expert with former Tier 1 Special Operations experience. The drill integrates live fire range exercises, high-intensity physical conditioning on an Echo Bike, and close-quarters battle scenarios, all while monitoring biometric data to simulate combat stress and optimize performance.
