So true. I trained with John McPhee recently or "Shrek" as he's more widely known. A no BS, former Delta guy and an excellent instructor. It was a 2-day carbine class, but guess what? We spent half the time shooting pistol and focusing on good fundamentals. Why? Because good pistol skills translate over when you switch to a rifle. When we finally started carbine drills, I could really feel the difference/improvement. Learned more in 2 days than I could have in 2 months with someone else.
Heard the same thing from LAV in his classes. Get those basics to stick with you, never stop practicing them and you're better off on whatever you pick up to shoot.
Life is full of choices. I choose Noveske.
