Anti-poaching With Crow Ngo
Private Military Contractor International|March 2019

PMCI is proud to stand with all the men and women who head out to “terra incognita” to use their hard-earned military and associated skills in one of the most demanding of settings, Africa. Whilst the mainline press tell their stories from a thinly-disguised political standpoint, here at PMCI we’re more interested in the personal stories of those that make a stand to protect endangered species and ways of life that are being fast-eroded.

Anti-poaching With Crow Ngo

As Editor of PMCI I am always delighted to hear from those that are “operational”, and given the magazine’s personal connection to Africa the “anti-poaching message” is one that we endorse in every way possible. I was therefore extremely pleased to be contacted by the team at CROW NGO and after some back and forth felt that their story needed to be told. CROW consists of a team of skilled volunteers, experienced operators, trainers and instructors with a wide field of expertise in remote/tactical medical support, armed and unarmed tactical combat and several skills useful to indigenous Rangers (such as fire management, tracking, survival, air-assault operations and so on). As an educational Non-profit NGO, CROWs main tasks are to educate the public on biodiversity conservation and to support both private and government parks in the fight against poaching by providing 100% free of charge training, mentoring, equipment and trained international volunteers.

All the team are volunteers who donate their time and money to protect our planet: each one with different background and experience, but each one offering his or her unique insights on conservation and specific skillset to the parks in need. Those

“stepping up” are prior MilitaryLaw Enforcement personnel, EMTs and Security Contractors but also Firefighters, Biologists and Doctors. Their mission is to establish and train both Park Rangers and International Volunteers to a set the highest standards in the skills necessary to support and supplement anti-poaching and conservation efforts worldwide: a professional approach by specialised professionals is required to improve the terrible situation. By creating a pool of professionals with tested and effective Standard Operational Procedures, the CROW NGO team are able to adapt and tailor solutions to parks all over the world.

RUGER-57

Late December of 2019, Ruger Firearms threw the gun industry for a loop by announcing a new semi-auto pistol chambered in 5.7x28mm aptly named the Ruger-57. This nearly 30-year-old cartridge, commonly perceived to be pertinent only to a niche market, was suddenly, the main topic of conversation! -TS

MICROTECH SCARAB

In the knife community, there is perhaps nothing more captivating than the “SWWWICK” sound of an automatic knife. Whether it’s the classic linage of the stiletto switchblade from our favorite gangster movies or if it’s the mystique of being banned in several states, the automatic knife remains on the top of every blade fan’s “must have list”. -TS

CHANGING THE TRAINING DYNAMIC WITH THE REALISTIC TARGET COMPANY

CHANGING THE TRAINING DYNAMIC WITH THE REALISTIC TARGET COMPANY

Throughout my law enforcement career, the standard training for our department, as with many agencies across our state, consisted of a static range with a solid color (black, blue, or green) human silhouette known as a B-27 target. It was only during my regular training as part of the SWAT team away from the patrol, upper brass, and investigations personnel in which things were a bit more “dynamic”.
