Dryfire for the win. I’ve won competitive matches after only shooting .22 pistols for a year, (same as you, new children who don’t let me sleep). It was 3 gun and 2 of the three guns were borrowed, and the pistol hadn’t been shot in 4-5 years. (Dry fire almost every night for the week leading up, but again only pistol).

@@PolenarTactical I know that these days you can get radlers/shandies with something like 3.5% ABV, but having mainly grown up in the UK I still think of them as 0.5% ABV soft drinks that kids can buy, so the idea of somebody taking a long time to drink one because they aren't used to alcohol is quite funny to me.

Ziga makes a very good point at 30:00 about how rifles/pistols are not the main weapon of the military. I spent 4 years overseas and never fired my weapon in anger. I sure used my radio though.

As a comp shooter of 10 yrs, i can tell you that training and gun discipline WILL help you in any situation, the stress of competition helps deal with staying cool under pressure, any kind of pressure. Dumping hundreds of rounds as opposed to IPSC or UDPA which allows for instant critique

[@griftinggamer]

I agree mostly, except not everyone reacts the same when it's real and someone might not ever go home. I was pretty confident too, highest scorer on yearly quals, trained hard and often, and still froze like a $2 popsicle for a second or two the first time I actually had a suspect at gunpoint. It's not run and gun John Wick when lives are at stake and bullets go both ways.

[@DJTheMetalheadMercenary]

This was a good talk guys, cheers 🍻 Some points of pros/ cons (or benefits/ downfalls) to competition shooting as applied to the exigent or defensive situation and conflict/ combat world-- Pros/ Benefits: - Escalating fundamental skills and accuracy emphasis - Variable situation dynamics application (if the events are good) - Hard-testing of your arms and equipment - General factor that is is training, just a different way/ means, and good exercise with some stress application Cons/ Downfalls: - A battlefield or defensive situation is a 360 degree spectrum, competition is much more limited - Timed events are the opposite of combat (save for very specific tier-1 operations as the exception) or a defensive situation, you have the rest of your life to figure things out-- and to quote a wise man who served in Somalia, "nothing ever takes 5 minutes" - Courses of fire on the flipside are too predictable compared to combat or defensive situations, besides the assistance of ISR and GEOSINT, the battlespace is largely unknown and the threat/ enemy has a say in the nature of the fight - There is very little to no application of physical defensive tactics (such as combatives) for everyday defensive situation training or nuanced crossover

[@obelysk4209]

Man how is PSR my favorite airsoft tuber and music artist "WERE HAVIN LOTS OF FAMILY FUN WAH YA"

[@VeryFastRodi]

I started shooting doing more tactical oriented shooting, this was my base level starting from no experience. Because i liked the shooting and moving aspect, i started to do IPSC so i could keep practicing that aspect. Now still doing IPSC and liking it more and more, i also still do tactical courses. And i definitly see a benefit of doing both, coming from tactical shooting and already used to shooting while moving a bit. It helped a lot doing my first competitions when seeing new competition shooters who are not used to that. Doing competitions more, it also helps with tactical shooting in looking where you are going, keeping an eye on the target, getting in position to have a solid base to shoot. like Ian said also, just being comfortable moving around in different positions with a pistol or gun, while running and or reloading is something from competition that transfer very well to tactical. Tactical moving is most of the time even way easier because you only have to go temple index instead of keeping the 180 in mind. There are a lot of details that transfer over back and forth and can compliment each other. The biggest detail that is different in IPSC that doesnt really transfer over, is playing the game more to get a good score. Its not all about just shooting A zone. Which is something i have to keep in mind because when i started i was being "to accurate" , which gives you a lot of A's but a less overall score. 😅

[@PolenarTactical]

Same here, i was 8th overall in the match but won the "most accurate" award :D IPSC is awesome because it has (in my opinion) one of the best scoring systems around - you have to hit the target but also be super fast. It just pushes you to improve on your skills

[@CenlaSelfDefenseConcepts]

The ATF and dogs meme comes from Ruby Ridge and Waco. Th Ruby Ridge standoff started when the US Marshall's shot Randy Weaver's dog without identifying themselves and Randy's son Sammy shot back at them. They were staking out Randy Weaver because he didn't show up in court after an ATF informant entrapped him into selling sawed off shotguns. At the beginning of the Waco raid The ATF shot the Branch Davidians' dogs that were in a fenced in pen they had a team that was specifically assigned to do that.

[@NationalistHillbilly]

Regarding the title of the video, i would say competition shooting makes u much more capable in a self defense situation in the streets, even more than it would in in a warzone. In a war its more about who's ready first rather than fastest, but in the streets u can't just draw your firearm every single time you get suspicious of someone, so speed matters more.

[@Grooove_e]

I like competition shooting and it is certainly a beneficial form of training, but IMO tactical training (with your edc/duty pistol) is more beneficial. How many people EDC a competition pistol here in the U.S.? I would bet not many do.
