    THis is on there websites faq...

    [h=4]Is there a hospital nearby?[/h]The hospital is only 10 minutes from the Training site and can handle most medical needs and a medivac on helicopter is only 50 minutes to Manila. A trauma unit is in Subic Bay (30 minutes from the training site) with world class setup for American servicemen based in Subic in the 80’s.
    [h=4]Do you have first aid onsite?[/h]G-1 Tactical always has a certified medical technician and trauma kit onsite during all training days for any medical need from one of our participants.

    Should be using dummy barrels when showing how to use weapon to strike throat with muzzle....too many in front of muzzle when shooting in a few spots...I'm not sure what this class is teaching to be honest.

    In the ending you see the instructor with a blue training gun why not use this for the striking drills???

    I don't trust anyone when I am facing a loaded weapon I don't care who it is accidents happen.. As a student I would have refused that part what if the shooter let one sail wide ruhhhh roooooo.

    Very interesting info. As students progress they learn more and more advanced techniques. Some folks never start. Some stop at "front sight press". some learn basic room clearing and some even advanced fighting and shooting like you see in the video here. Is it dangerous? Hell yea it is! So is combat. Would you rather learn to shoot with folks down range when you are safe and have all the time in the world to get it right or at 10:00 at night during a convenience store robbery?

    Feel free to stop learning the art of combat when you reach your personal safety threshold but don't belittle those who choose to me more skilled than you.

    I'd "trust my partner" more if they stopped shooting their Effing gun at me.

    ...Feel free to stop learning the art of combat when you reach your personal safety threshold but don't belittle those who choose to me more skilled than you.

    Why does it take more skill to shoot with a person next to a target rather than a cutout of a person? There's no additional value, but tons of additional risk. Seems like a pretty clear cut case of "dumd-ass-itis" doctor.

    Count the unrealistic combat scenarios. Having a "Skilled attacker" move extremely slow and offer no resistance isn't the way to go. Looks to me like a couple of third-rate Escrima instructors decided to move into firearms/MMA training. Talk about jack of all trades, master of NONE.

    0:02 should make it clear what audience this "Training" is geared toward. Get ready, guys, here come a bunch of Call Of Duty veterans... WITH GUNS! Can't wait for one of them to end up in court for murder because he was trained to use a pistol in a fistfight, or the day when some idiot gets shot by a cop because he was using his pistol as a striking weapon in a street fight.

    I agree with M. Sage- it's just a matter of time before someone gets killed here. I hope they have a very good liability waiver.

    Learning to shoot with folks down range. Hmmm. I thought they called it "learning to trust that your "partner" (who is probably not a partner but a stranger who just happened to sign up for the class) won't miss the target by more than 24 inches and kill you for no good reason." If having a live victim is so important to training, then we need to give the target a gun and let it shoot back. Now we're talking "training."

    Seems like there are safer ways to conduct this type of training, don't they make same pretty realistic paintball guns, also wonder how easy it would be to hold someones hands behind their back and hit a target if they were actually resisting. I have no problems with someone wanting as much training as possible but there has to be a safer way to do it.

    Exactly. Time for the keyboard commandos talking about realistic training to man-up and put themselves under live fire. Right. LMFAO

    So the benefit of having a stranger stand next to a cardboard target as you shoot is what exactly?
