What is force-on-force training and why is it important?

Force-on-force training uses marking ammunition like Simunition in realistic scenarios to test decision-making, gear, and reactions under stress. It's vital for preparing individuals for high-stakes self-defense situations beyond static range practice.

How should one react during an active shooter event when carrying concealed?

Upon hearing gunfire, draw your concealed weapon, move to a defensive position, identify the threat, and engage if necessary. Crucially, verbally identify yourself as a 'good guy' to avoid confusion with law enforcement.

What is a tactical reload and when should it be performed?

A tactical reload involves reloading your firearm during a lull in combat, ensuring you have a full magazine. It should be performed while maintaining situational awareness and a defensive posture, not under immediate threat.

What firearms and accessories were featured in the training video?
