Well, it was another GREAT class at Brady last weekend! A BIG "thanks" goes to Pat Rogers, Mike H., and all the students who helped make this class a really great time and great training for all. Everybody was really switched on.
Pat can confirm that there were the usual problems with equipment - worn springs, EOTech battery box issues, etc. But everybody was taken care of by either replacing or fixing what was malfunctioning, due to the extensive "goodie box" maintained by both Pat and Mike.
An extra big THANKS goes out to EAG's sponsors - Larue, Viking Tactics, TangoDown, Woolrich Elite, S&B and TruckVault. Larue is hooking me up with a new Aimpoint to fill the empty Larue Aimpoint mount I brought home as a "gimme".
The most valuable things I took away from this and last year's classes are shooting positions like SBU, supine, and urban prone, shooting toward the strong side while moving laterally toward the weak side, realistic cleaning and lube methods, what equipment works and what is crap, and a good method for clearing malfunctions. Simply being on the range for 8 hours a day and running 1200-1300 rds through a carbine in 3 days has given me a new perspective on what works and what doesn't in regards to equipment, gear, and skillsets.
If anybody else who was there has any comments, suggestions, photos, etc - fire away!
