Edition 54
Comments: None
This will be a short newsletter.
We still have a few seats open in the SC CWP class scheduled for this weekend. Let me know if you’re interested so I can get you the details.
If you’ve been waiting for prices on AR-15’s to come down, I wouldn’t wait any longer. Same for ammunition. And magazines. All that could change before you finish reading this newsletter. If you need some guidance, contact me. I can help you start out a little higher on the learning curve.
Train hard; put God first!

Low Light Handgun #1
The first LLH is now history. Judging from feedback I’ve received I’d call it a success. We learned a few things and the next one will be even better.
Here’s an outline of the live-fire content of the curriculum:
- Daylight
- One-handed draw-stroke from concealment
- Reducing stoppages (review)
- Flashlight techniques (review)
- Dusk
- Shooting thru the stages of dusk w/o artificial light
- Night
- Flashlight techniques
- Reducing stoppages
- Single targets: Threat identification (shoot v. no-shoot v. challenge)
- Multiple targets: Threat identification and prioritization
Students performed a mix of static / technical drills and dynamic / tactical drills.
We also discussed some of the issues involved in defending the home during periods of darkness.
We started promptly at 6 pm Saturday afternoon and I called cease-fire around 2:30 am Sunday morning.
All the students worked hard and made it a great class. I think they all came to a greater appreciation for how darkness complicates things. Good to know since the odds are high it’s during a period of low-light that our self defense skills will be called upon.
The next LLH is tentatively scheduled for 15 NOV from 3 pm to Midnight (subject to change).
