Larry seems like an excellent instructor. I'd love to spend at least a day on the range with him.

[@DaJooters]

Who wouldn't want to spend a day on the range with an Ex-Delta Force operator? :)

This was one of the things they really did right in MOH: WF. It was unfortunate the game flopped, because the gun handling in multiplayer, the visuals, the sound design, all really good.

[@DaGn0528]

I honestly found the game VERY well done. I was very confused as to why most people didn't like it; even the guy at GameStop said not to buy it, and good thing I didn't listen.

[@dasschadenfreude7333]

That's just what happens when big name titles like CoD and Battlefield rule the FPS genre. It's hard to try something new when everyone assumes it will fail due to not being under the big name branding.

[@annekedebruyn7797]

@@dasschadenfreude7333 I know your comment is from five years ago but I still wanted to say that Medal of Honor wasn't something new. The franchise is older than Battlefield (2002) AND Call of Duty (2003.) The franchise had a difficult time because people wanted primarily a multi player game at point of release. While older Medal of Honor titles had barebones multiplayer experiences before and were somewhat populair, the main thing was always the story for MoH. But the latest two games of MoH had that odd in the middle gameplay where the focus wasn't on neither resulting in OG MoH backlash because the singleplayer wasn't up to par and newer players from CoD and BF because the MP experience wasnt there either.

[@LongRon6969]

Warfighter is the perfect game for guys who appreciate guns and realism

[@turkassasin_since_]

1911 is almost 120 years old and it is so good that it is used until today it is such a gorgeous handgun

[@finnanutyo1153]

Almost 110 year old I'd say.

[@alphatyrant8677]

this is why I like Larry. he's just real with you and will give you the tips you need to improve while also staying to remind you and reset you when need be.

[@TL-zu8kn]

This may be the best instructional video on firing a hand gun I have ever seen.

[@christopherpeterraby]

gun tips from Larry = priceless, dude has probably killed alot of bad guys

[@spartacon5267]

Warfighter was such an underrated game...

[@banhammer7243]

spartacon5267 Well said, just a shame EA stabbed Danger Close in the back over it!

[@banhammer7243]

Colin Murnane EA didn't want it to compete with Battlefield, so they killed it, wankers!

[@MrHaun]

spartacon5267 I liked it. I still play it occasionally. The weaponry and weapon functionality was right on for the most part. Shame the Navy SEALs that contributed to the game's development got in trouble for doing so.

[@JimmyGunXD556]

Couldn't agree with you more!!! Love that game!

[@DGworksIvan]

spartacon5267 story telling skills are great, can complete with COD MW series. Multiplayer (i started playing at the late period of the game) is not bad. at least i enjoy them more than the BF4.

[@MATTYIC3012]

Great to see someone such LV be such a humble human being and willing to teach gaming developers and teach them.

[@lexort4204]

The Gun play in MOH WF just always felt great to me, still play it from time to time.

[@eltequilenotapatio9419]

I think I missed something Never played it I guess I got to buy it since I still got my old XB 360 so, time to appreciate LAV's work, won't hurt if it's Not that great, I'm not a FPS fanboy, I lo e guns n just play for the fun of it n clear my mind after a long week of work, sipping through my 12 pack of Belgium Ale😋

[@billythekid8333]

What Larry said regarding sight picture at 21:40 is so true. Even with rifles. And I’ve nearer heard someone put it so well. Thanks for saying in 20sec what I took me 3mths to learn

[@jlnaughton]

It was great to see Larry start at the ground level with the game designers, some of which appeared to have limited experience with firearms. And to see their reaction actually shooting these pistols with instruction from Mr. Vickers was pretty cool!

[@lcplcalifornia89]

that camera metaphor, is one of the best techniques

[@v.german11b]

Larry Vickers is one of THE best, period. That says it all. I am so glad he is healing and recovering.

[@veedee4860]

Larry is my inner spirit as a teacher. He’s give great, calm, and easy to process instructions.

[@TysonFroment2]

Also the acceptable wobble thing you showed us in class with the figure 8 and circle is literally the best thing I've learned for sharpening my shot group.

[@jamesblack2399]

I remember doing the same for the developers of the videogame BLACK for Playstation 2. My coworkers and I spend 5 hrs and thousands of rds of ammo shooting everything from a Glock to a M249. When the video game came out and we played it, we noticed how seriously they took their research. One of those cool stories you can share as a firearms instructor :)

[@arym1108]

jamesblack2399 one of the most underrated games of all time. When that game came out it was the nicest looking and sounding fps I had ever played.

[@unknown-de3kg]

jamesblack2399 loved that game, actually had the cops called on us cuz we had the surround way up and could gear it across the neighborhood lol, the people that called said there was a war going on at our house

[@calebsone1630]

I loved Black it was the greatest game that came out on PS2

[@2865016]

It's great to see a video referencing actual guns to a video game and not bash gamers for liking guns that appear in the game.

[@ajttambo]

Exactly. Videogames inspired me to start getting into guns in real life, many other young gun owners are in the same boat

[@fsdafas749]

warfighter was such an underrated game, it had so much potential. EA never should've put so much money into advertising. the game mechanics, level design and graphics were awesome. I've never enjoyed a game as much as warfighter and it'll always be my favourite shooter.

[@TysonFroment2]

I see another Delta guy in the segment:) Mr T.G. is a real world hero badass. His movie was completely inspirational to lots of us.

[@Reverie100]

Thanks Larry for all that you give back and share with us.

[@Tiger_actual]

Vickers does a great job of breaking firearms and ammunition down in terms of simple truths.

[@InfuriatedHawk]

Oh the limp wrists

[@philipdelgado6166]

honestly embarrasing

[@racamp4467]

Man I loved this game. wish they'd make more of these

[@JohnnyUtah71]

Having Larry over your shoulder giving you tips must be heaven. Lucky guys.

[@hankscot8133]

Great video!! The takeaway for me from this is how LAV used terms that everyone is familiar with when talking to non shooters about shooting. I will be using the camera button comparison next time I'm training a new shooter. Thank you!!

[@LittleBear1Alpha]

As a vet I love MoH 2010 and MoH Warfighter, as a gamer I was a little let down with warfighter. It was buggy and the graphics could have been better and smoother. But the attention to detail I love. I wish the multiplayer servers were more like Battlefields and could be set up differently by the host. I wish more FPS developers would be as dedicated as the ones that made these games. These guys listened and watched operators and made a game for both PC and consoles that was realistic and fun. Myself and other vets hope they make another one and dont let EA push a crazy release date so they can make it right.

[@stevepak3294]

Larry is just a badass....what a great teacher

[@aaronweston7540]

Larry, that bit about perceived wobble and snatching the trigger just spoke to years of my having issues with low-right shooting (southpaw). Thanks for that.

[@TylerLL2112]

Man, I love when people from another country come here and have a good time shooting guns. Makes me happy. Especially seeing how well he did.

[@BattlegroundsFTW]

〈--- Literally FAST food ™ (mɐin chɐnnǝl) It was what it was made to be, a hybrid of Battlefield and Call of Duty.

[@Hkup5]

noerden91 EA took out most of the good stuff. Claiming it was "TOO" realistic. IDK ea does a great job of ruinin great games.

[@albertohinojosa1314]

Delta30 What's the problem with too much realism? There's ot such thing as ''too much'' on that. What happened?

[@Hkup5]

Alberto Hinojosa I guess they went way too far with some aspects. I guess with some gun play. Missions. Also a bunch of SEALs where docked pay for a month. So a lot of stuff was of concern. Also too much realism makes a game not to fun..... Me as a gamer. Its not much fun to play a game that is 100% realistic. Remember games are for fun.

[@kentsextro9692]

Best video I've watched yet, I don't care for the gimmicky sound effects during the "slow mo videos" though.

[@1Alexville]

These are some lucky developers to have one on one training from someone of LAVs talent and knowledge. Maybe they will get a taste of how much effort and dedication it takes to achieve his level of mastery.

[@JustSumGuy01]

One of the few things I didn't like in the single player experience is clearing rooms with your team or in this case clearing rooms with your team watching you! The purpose of clearing a room with a team is you cover your sector and take out whatever is in your zone and entrust your life that your team takes care of theirs. In this game, you don't do that. You have to take out EVERYONE in the room, going all around taking out guys where your team mates should be doing it for you. That took me out of the immersion.

[@leansquadairsoft6096]

Man I'd love to get one on one instruction from Larry- great vids as always - semperfi

[@fuigebhardt2966]

also, i dont remember there ever being a 1911 that the player character used in MoH: Warfighter (unless it was in multiplayer... again, i dont ever play multiplayer games). the ex-Ranger intel guy always had one next to him on his desk, but the player never got to use one (iirc).

[@michaelscalese4656]

you had to play the multi-player as the demolitions character.

Holy anticipation at 5:10! That round had to of hit the dirt at 10 yards.

Holy fuck balls! Someone actually tells the truth about .45 vs 9mm! I can die now in peace. Thanks Larry.

[@ricochetPR85]

MeatHook erm not really... i agree with his point of view about the 1911 user... but saying that if 9mm is not hp your just poking a hole is kinda ignorant because when u hit somebody center mass even if it is round nose the body ussually collapse specially if u hit an organ... dont get me wrong i use 9mm hp as my edc

[@fuigebhardt2966]

i CANNOT BELIEVE Medal Of Honor was such a loathed and reviled franchise. it was easily the best, most realistic, authentic FPS game ive ever played. sure, i know there are more realistic games like Operation Flashpoint and Arma (never played Arma, so i may be wrong here), but i mean 'realistic' as compared to games like Call Of Duty and Battlefield. especially the first MoH, that game was incredible. i just cannot fathom why people HATED MoH so much. it was infinitely better than any CoD: Modern Warfare, yet the franchise was irrevocably scrapped after making only 2 games. can someone clue me in? is it cuz of multiplayer or something (ive never once played an online game)?

[@Clutch_Kick187]

One on one instruction from Larry would be the Top of the Totem for me.. Great video for anyone new to shooting handguns..

[@Doogleraia]

How old is this video actually?

[@abracing199]

Warfighter is a few years at this point. Could have been a pretty good game but came out rushed and broken at its core.

[@Doogleraia]

abracing199 I loved the game, but too bad it got so much negative feedback etc, because of it's "on rails" singleplayer. Even though the multiplayer had nothing to do with that.

[@ShinobiHOG]

Mainfold the multiplayer was phenomenal. The COD fanboys just piled on with the negative hype. It's cool though, I enjoyed the people I encountered while playing warfighter. Keep the COD operators away or it will be ruined.....

[@LidenFromSweden]

Shinobi HOG The multiplayer was pretty bad as well though. Do you not remember how terrible the hit reg was?

Matthew JW. Miskimmin eh, no disrespect to Wilson Combat, but there are other 1911 manufacturers that are just as good if not better. I understand the inclination to loyalty but look around a little more. There are some real gems in the custom market. Led Baer for one. No offence meant.
