DESIGNATED TRAINING GUNS
Private Military Contractor International|June 2020
WHEN IT COMES TO FIREARMS TRAINING, MANY OF US DEDICATED TO THE DISCIPLINE WILL SPEND HOURS ON THE RANGE SENDING HUNDREDS IF NOT THOUSANDS OF ROUNDS DOWN RANGE EACH MONTH. SADLY, IT IS A HARD FACT THAT MOST WILL NOT SPEND JUST AS MUCH TIME OFF THE RANGE HANDLING OUR FIREARMS, WORKING ON BASIC FUNDAMENTALS SUCH AS DRY FIRING OR MORE ADVANCED TECHNIQUES SUCH AS MOVEMENT OR WEAPON RETENTION DRILLS. ONE OF THE PRIMARY EXCUSES FOR NOT DOING SO IS SAFETY.
DESIGNATED TRAINING GUNS

While we are off the range in the classroom and at home much more than on the range, safety concerns of long term wear on your firearm while dry firing thousands of cycles, accidental discharge or damage to your firearm from pushing yourself past the fail point to get better are all valid concerns. This is the perfect opportunity for shooters to make invaluable investments into their skillset improvement by purchasing designated training guns. For this issue, we take a look at two specific companies and their products that are clear leaders in the training firearm industry, the SIRT by Next Level Training (NLT) and the military / law enforcement classic Red Guns by Armament Systems & Procedures, better known to the industry as ASP.

These two great options offer a variety of different benefits at varying price points to help shooters to improve off the range and make the most of their time and investment on the range as well!

SIRT BY NEXT LEVEL TRAINING

With striker fired pistols such as the Glock 80% of the world’s shooting population, the slide must be manually cycled to reset the trigger each time it is dry fired, which may cause the shooter the bad habit or “training scar” to break from their master grip during live fire in order to subconsciously try to cycle the slide as they would in dry fire practice. Fortunately for the majority of the industry’s shooters today, the SIRT pistol is one product that will NOT do the hard work and time invested for you, but WILL give you the means to be able to make your time off the range just as valuable as the time spent with live fire.

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”.
