Things not to do in class With John "Shrek" McPhee

[@atypical_moto]

I've had to run and grab a dudes rifle to redirect the muzzle. I never cussed. He was instantly apologetic. I said "don't worry, nobody saw but now you know, don't do it again". There's no need to be a psychopath about it. Even if your dad used to beat you, let it go man.

[@Jewifer333x2]

People who power trip at the range are often the types who lie about military service

[@iXmetalXi]

I get it, it could be a negligent discharge and put lives in danger, if it didn’t then consider yourself lucky and direct them so it doesn’t happen again. My grandfather verbally abused me before I even had a gun in my hands, it kinda made me too fearful if that makes sense

[@tommywilson9836]

May just be my own observation but, it seems the baddest dudes on the planet (MARSOC, SOCOM, SF community in general) are almost always the most accommodating instructors on the range. They may be sticklers for safety and fundementals but always check their ego, recognize who they are (and are not) working with and make what could be intimidating for some a really enjoyable time and ultimately, make us all better shooters.

[@Gcal1956]

He is a very honest and humble person. I think he approached this very well.

[@bprice1892]

Good stuff John! I think many instructors want to be so serious and uptight and it almost makes students be more unsafe bc they get nervous. Even when i went to SWAT school, our instructors were so tight and angry acting that they nearly made you make safety mistakes when guys usually wouldnt.

[@darksidecarnival5385]

[@reedr1659]

Watched this dude drop the hammer on a target. He had forgotten to put his ear pro in after a break and was alarmed by the sound and pain. He was like OMG as he's turning around waving a gun in all directions with his finger on the trigger. Instructor got ahold of that weapon real fast, but not before everybody had been muzzled. The instructor was very professional in how he handled it. Nobody else said much about it, but I'm sure they were as uncomfortable about it as I was. Guy obviously realized his error and felt bad about it.

[@BradYaeger]

One great carry over I picked up from being a musician is " When in doubt, sit it out". If you aren't sure what to do, doing nothing is less harmful than doing something you aren't sure of.

I was cut from a different cloth, and that is to take initiative.

@@davidwarren719 you've probably made ton of bad decisions and still haven't learned anything lol

[@FuttBuckerson]

@@davidwarren719 So an accidental discharge because skippy got excited and shot someone in the gut is more valuable than someone taking the mindset of "I don't know, therefore I won't do this before I do"? Yeah...gonna go with OP and agree. The lesson is, if you don't know something, learn until you do. Taking initiative only applies if you actually have the knowledge to...initiate something worth a shit.

[@mreb1863]

Some guys know what they are doing but don’t know how to train others. Sounds like he is good at both! Thanks! Great video!

[@irishdefense77]

What civilians or even members of service don’t know about Shrek is his pure warrior mentality in the situations that warrant it.I had the honor of deploying with him on my 3rd tour and when everyone was scared to death and we all thought we were not coming back from this mission-he was the face of calm.I have to say,whenever I was close to him in a TIC,I felt like we were going to be fine. DOL!

[@wesmont87]

Thank u Sherrif for being welcoming to new shooters. Im a Californian who loves shooting (yeah I known lol) and early on I was almost discouraged by aggro range masters. Some ranges are cliquey and don't take kindly

When I saw the title, my first thought was, "Don't show up in all your TactiKool gear". I went to a class and we had a couple guys kitted up like they were going on an op.

[@thomaswolniewicz4332]

I once flagged all my buddies with a 12 gauge shotgun. Their reaction was priceless, they all dropping on the ground like flies and yelling at me and cussing. I was just excited and oblivious to what I've just done. I don't do that anymore though.

[@cesardrudi8238]

These rules are the same as the swedish police teach. 5th does not apply since we dont use a gun with a normal safety. The Sig Sauer has two but they are connected to the trigger.

[@markscott9622]

Great advise, excellent presentation. Thank you

[@DrunkChristian03]

I always explain this to new shooters (muzzle awareness) that it’s like giving a toddler a cup with no lid. They don’t mean to spill it but they haven’t developed the awareness yet that if they don’t hold it right, mistakes happen and then I say “and today you’re the toddler with a cup, the gun is your cup, so start being mindful of what you’re holding and where it’s pointing”.

[@Eslamizar]

I had a negligent discharge at a range back in the day when I first started shooting. But I was following rules (accept keeping my finger off the trigger with a cocked hammer), the revolver was pointing down range so when it went off, the bullet went where it was suppose to. NEVER had another ND since!

There is always that one guy who fans his gun before or after he takes a shot. Makes a lot of us nervous. This is why I get the lane farthest away from people

[@TraceyAllen]

My local range has a couple more rules, like 1 second between rounds, and no drawing from a holster.

[@Rockit-]

yeah, I remember the first time I was at training, the guy next to me was a bit nervous, after we were told to cease fire after the first rounds went off - of course he let off one by accident (thank god it was down range) and BOY did he get his ass chewed off,,,,,,,Big time.

[@johnschmidt6089]

I would probably train under the instruction of this man if I had the opportunity. He knows how to treat people with respect. There is a time and place for everything. Entry level beginner firearms class for civilians who just want to learn how to protect themselves, their families and their homes from bad guys is not the time and place for Marine recruit boot camp type training with all its yelling and screaming, although there may come a time after that when tougher training is called for. Some trainers out there have big personal issues, are grossly insecure, put on the macho act to cover it up, and make themselves feel good about themselves, and wrongly run even their elementary beginner classes like boot camps, screaming and yelling at and denigrating their entry level students. You can find two of them here on their own KZbin channels. I'm not saying that students need to have their feelings tip-toed around. I'm just saying that everyone has the right to be treated with respect. If I'm going to go into a ,and be screamed at, then the instructor needs to pay me a fee rather than me paying him.

[@davidgreen40]

When I was an instructor my rules were: 1. Don''t shoot me. 2. Don't shoot yourself. 3. Don't shoot any classmates. How do you accomplish this? Always keep your firearm pointed in a safe direction (i.e., down range) or holstered. Always keep your finger off the trigger until the firearm is pointed at the target and you are cleared to shoot. Always keep the firearm unloaded until it is about to be used.

[@nmr6988]

Always good to be reminded of the basics. I've only had to have one person removed from a class; he was a joker and not safe. No one was sorry to see him go. (But I was nice about it.)

[@TriggerTimeTV]

[@Symbiote-Man]

"don't make mistakes that get you yelled at" Isn't that why you go to these classes? To learn what to do and not to do?

[@boomerisadog3899]

Before you ever even handle a gun you should know basic firearms safety. If you don't have someone to teach you those rules this is the information age and it's easy to find them out on your own. Tactical classes aren't meant to teach you which end the bullets come out of, you should already know the basics.

[@johnschmidt6089]

Jamy McTaylor you are probably one of those guys who grew up being yelled at and denigrated from the time you were a little kid, yelled at and denigrated by some asshole parent who took their own troubles out on you. It screwed you up. There is a time and place for yelling and denigration, like in the making of a Marine. But little kids aren't Marine recruits.

[@w6zip]

Legit! Thanks John

[@pantera29palms]

Treat-every weapon as if it were loaded. Never-point a weapon at anything you don’t intend to shoot. Keep-your finger straight and off the trigger until you’re ready to fire. Keep-your weapon on safe until you intend to fire. OORAH USMC

[@shaneeyre2174]

I’ve had to redirect a muzzle before quite a few times but I never get pissed about it I just talk to the person and make sure they understand what happened if they do it multiple times then I’ll get a little more aggressive not full on assrape I still won’t cuss at them but my tone is more aggressive

[@knutepeterson4134]

This comment may seem too basic to mention yet, Always stay at or behind the firing line until the range safety officer has declared the range safe and double check the range is, in fact, safe. This declaration bears mentioning and repeating at a training class just like the basic fire arms safety rules. While participating in a required basic range safety exercise to qualify for joining a private shooting club I witnessed the following. After hearing and repeating aloud the basic fire arm safety rules, receiving our instructions, and the range officer declaring the range hot, I and roughly 12 to 15 other shooters began to perform the required shooting exercises. All tasks were meant to demonstrate basic fire arm safety. Accuracy of shot placement was not the measured activity. This was not a competition. Fire 'x' number of shots on target, eject primary magazine, insert second magzine, fire additional 'x' number of shots on target, safely secure fire arm. Pretty basic. I completed the assigned tasks in the far left shooting lane, including safely securing my fire arm. There were several others still in the process of completing the tasks assigned. Rounds were being sent down range. As I looked right and saw the range officer focused on a single shooter, and the faces of all supporting range officers facing my direction, I saw the shooter of the far right shooting lane secure his firearm and immediately proceed to cross the firing line, running down range to retrieve his "personal best" while other applicants were still shooting. I shouted, " the range is still hot " and alerted the range officer pointing to the man running down range. No one was injured. The range officer and supporting observers secured the firing line. The applicant down range was so excited by his spectacular shooting performance that he showed no comprehension of the danger in which he had placed himself. After escorting the proud shooter away from the range (and probably off the premises with a denied application) the range officer and supporting observers thanked me for alerting them to the situation. Range observers extended there positions and the exercise was restarted and completed safely. Again, it seems like the obvious does not need to be mentioned but I saw what happened when 'the obvious' was not mentioned. Other shooters were so focused on their own assigned task that thinking someone would venture down range during a live fire exercise was even a possibilty. Stay at or behind the firing line until the range officer has declared the range safe and double check that the range is in fact safe and the firing line is cleared is an important rule, reminder, instruction for a training class, newbie or otherwise. Thank you for your service, all that you are doing now, and for reading this far.

[@rumham3175]

I have always wondered about the "always keep the gun on safe until you're shoot" rule when it comes to Remington 700 series. What is the purpose of not being able to put the weapon on safe until it is chambered? I don't know if this is a "feature" on all Remington 7 series, but it certainly is on my 710.

[@rjstewart]

I'd like to say that our licensing system here in Canada with the courses you have to take prevents this sort of thing, but the reality is that between writing the exam and getting your license it could be 3 to 6 months before you get a gun and are on a range. New shooters, even in our system, are notorious for these sorts of fuck ups. I agree though that yelling at someone is NOT going to help them or anyone else!

[@notlisted-cl5ls]

lolol. wat not to do if you waste your time with the old has beens? dont bother to go to start with.

What would you consider reasonable when it comes to carbines with safeties? After you shoot you should be able to put it on safe and have it pointing down while leaving the shooting stance. Or would you consider it better to clear the weapon first after each session?

[@jasonshink6589]

I know I was in the Army but I think that is actually what you civis need. I was getting rodded off the range first time with M16. I started to turn towards drill sergeants so they could inspect my rifle...i proceeded to get slammed to the ground and yelled at and smoked. I never have flagged anyone since. I just think that that's the best technique. I obviously agree with Mr. McPhee on everything he is just giving an actual what you can do with society

[@ottergreen8190]

jason shink I wasn’t the Pvt who flagged anyone, but I was standing right there watching the choke slam that ensued and that was enough of a deterrent for me not to fuck up on the firing line, or even when it was clear, for that matter. Making an impact like that isn’t always bad because it’s gonna leave an impression vs a soft tone coddle.
