Missfire? No problem!

This video demonstrates the safe operation of a vintage Taurus .357 Magnum revolver at an outdoor range. It covers loading six rounds of PMC .357 Magnum 158gr JSP ammunition, proper shooting technique with attention to recoil management and accuracy against steel targets, and the safe ejection of spent casings. The instruction highlights safe muzzle direction and controlled trigger pull, suitable for intermediate shooters.

This video provides a critical assessment of various ammunition brands, distinguishing between reliable options for training and those to avoid due to potential firearm damage. The instructor highlights HSL Ammunition's reloads as a cost-effective and reliable choice for high-volume range practice, while cautioning against Blazer Aluminum and steel-cased 9mm ammunition due to issues like cracked casings and malfunctions that can render firearms inoperable.

This video details a four-day intensive training course for Lucas Botkin's new company, featuring elite shooters like Brantley Merriam and Jesse Sinko. The training covers advanced pistol and carbine drills, long-range precision shooting with tripod techniques, and critical CQB tactics for active shooter response. Instruction emphasizes performance metrics, speed, accuracy, and life-saving strategies, showcasing high-level proficiency and strategic content gathering.

This video provides a practical demonstration of the Springfield Armory M1A SOCOM 16, covering its visual aspects, action cycling, ammunition selection, loading procedures, and live-fire execution. The instruction emphasizes safe firearm handling and proper operational techniques, suitable for intermediate shooters looking to understand the M1A's basic functionality.

This video demonstrates a scientific approach to testing whether bullets speed up after leaving the muzzle, using two chronographs placed at different distances. The experiment reveals that bullets consistently slow down due to atmospheric resistance and gravity, debunking the common misconception that they might accelerate. The instructor emphasizes the importance of understanding ballistic principles for accurate steel target rating and overall preparedness.

Joel Park discusses defining effective practice ammunition, emphasizing cost and availability as primary factors. He advises against training with ammunition significantly softer than competition loads, as it can hinder adaptation to recoil. Conversely, training with hotter loads and then switching to milder competition ammo is acceptable. For rifle training, PMC and Winchester 55-grain FMJ are recommended for their value, while steel case like Wolf is noted for lower recoil compared to XM193.

This guide details how to properly zero a red dot sight on a 9mm handgun, based on expert instruction. It emphasizes understanding mechanical offset and ballistic trajectory. The video advises against zeroing at very close distances like 5 yards, recommending a 15-yard zero for 9mm handguns as it provides a more predictable point of impact at common engagement distances, typically around 50 yards.

This guide details the unique top-loading process for the Kel-Tec P50 pistol using stripper clips, as demonstrated by Shortshot Tony. It covers loading 20 rounds of 5.7x28mm ammunition and highlights the firearm's exceptionally lightweight design and minimal recoil during firing, offering a practical overview for potential users.

This video from SHORTSHOT TONY provides practical advice on defensive target selection, emphasizing aiming for the pelvic girdle rather than the head or center mass when facing threats potentially wearing body armor. The instructor, identified as a firearms enthusiast with practical shooting experience, humorously but directly explains the tactical advantage of targeting the pelvis to immobilize an opponent. The demonstration utilizes a 2011-style pistol equipped with a red dot optic.

SHORTSHOT TONY, an experienced tactical content creator, explains the proper use of red dot sights and iron sights. He emphasizes that co-witnessing is for backup purposes, not simultaneous aiming, and that red dots are parallax-free. Tony advises against aligning the red dot with irons for every shot, suggesting it's a misuse of the optic's capabilities and potentially a waste of money if not utilized correctly.
