Reid, I've been a follower of yours for several years, before Valley Ridge!! Enjoy all your content. You taught me how to properly zero iron sights and red dot sights, thanks for all you do. Semper Fi!!

[@logicalone41]

I love that you're in the rain, so many people only want to train on nice, clear days. Bad times and bad situations don't wait for good weather! Outstanding!!

[@matthewriegner5180]

That's the trick. Shoot rain hail sleet snow, even some level of wind. Other than optics and gear function testing there are little considerations that you don't discover unless shooting in those conditions. Even post, like cleaning after a rainy drizzly day. You're rifle will crud up if you don't clean well after a rainy day just from the humidity the carbon soaks up.

[@CMDR.Gonzo.von.Richthofen]

If it ain't raining, we ain't training! Yut!

[@psychoholicslag4801]

Iron sights are still the basic but fully functional set up.

[@scottwest2069]

The range is looking absolutely beautiful. I am counting the days until my class! I am training every other weekend at the range to get my skills up and get fit. Thank you so much reid.

[@thedeathwobblechannel6539]

Many things in shooting are as follows get it right then you can get it faster

With the weekend here, this will be a great lesson to work on. Thanks.

Love the instructor call outs, Reid. I appreciate that

[@jmfraser]

Reid! I came by for Pistolcraft I and Rifleman I back in 2017; this is making me want to come down and do it all over again!

[@MrWest3]

I like that he doesn't keep recording and edit what ain't perfect. What you see is what you get!

[@johnmorganjr769]

You better believe it ! Especially on 'rack grade' weapons ! (Resting on magazine) 🎯 👍

[@SuperFcsmith]

I qualified at my department almost exactly as you demonstrated, except our targets turn. I believe we had to do 2 to the body 1 to the head in 2 seconds(I think) with Eotec red dots then repeat, then two years later same final test in 3 seconds with iron sights. And with turning targets it’s pretty challenging. Many fail this section of the qual.

[@joshshepherd5660]

Good drill. I will give it a go tomorrow when I get out to the range! Thank you

[@MrToad-actual]

Thank you, Reid. “Here ya go gunny, right back in your face”😂

[@joshuas6015]

We know you can shoot faster. Thanks for slowing it down to where the average person should be.

[@larryjohnson7591]

Great explanation. I believe that was more important than looking at the target. It was very important to show that you don't have to grab the trigger real fast in order to meet the time standard. A constant, steady trigger press is more important than trigger speed. Great Job Reid. Thank You.

[@hunterp2076]

The USMC Table 1 qualification when Marines are not authorized to “rest the magazines on the deck” comes from the National Match Service Rifle Competition rules. The courses of Fire are similar. Just saying where that “magazine on the deck” thing comes from Reid. Thanks for this course of fire.

[@YouveBeenMiddled]

*ProTip:* You don't _need_ fancy printed targets. Paper plates and napkins will get you similar sized target zones. Verify your skills. No excuses.

[@markperrault5678]

Practice practice practice then practice some more

[@sixstringforge]

This may be available somewhere else, so sorry if I missed it. What size is the engagement square and circle on the target? Great course of fire too. Short skills practice sessions like this on a regular basis seem to be far more beneficial than burning hundreds of rounds of ammo a couple times per year.

[@nickmayhew9722]

Love your videos. I have a question about your American Rifleman book. On page 58, you mention about how to select a quality rifle and say that it should have heavy duty bolts and a chrome-lined chamber. What do you mean by chrome-lined chamber? Also, how can I tell if the rifle has a heavy duty bolt? Do Ruger Ar556s meet this criteria? Which basic or stock Stag arms rifle would you recommend that meets that criteria? Many thanks.

[@heavyhitta52]

Reid, any reason you run irons over red dot?

[@rfccw949]

What’s the level 2 holster you’re using for your pistol?

[@RimfireAddicted70]

This drill with irons is a real test that I don't think many shooters can pass especially first few times out. Everyone is so used to Red dot / Optic use that range and positional shooting with irons would be a real challenge. It certainly a great way to develop iron skills!

[@matthewriegner5180]

Yeah it's impressive he's shooting this with irons.

[@bds123087]

What type of rear site is that? How much do they run for and where can I pick one up? I need to find a good rear site.

[@gator7082]

Looks like Daniel Defense front and rear fixed, very good sites.

I feel like you teaching the "look around" after e ery shot is dumb...

[@dtsh4451]

When you have ten people shooting side by side and make move after each course of fire, you don’t feel silly looking side by side. You simply don’t want to get ahead of other shooter’s muzzle😂
