| Testing rifles and pistols, the Sledgehammer Drill that I came up with has served TNP well. In "Inception Sledge" we run the shortened version of this course for the first time. Gone is the 75 yard sprint to 200 yard shooting...at least for now! The rest of the course is about the same: engaging 115 yard steel plates x2, 35 yard head shots on the paper bad guy (harder than you might think), and the whole thing kicking off with 3 stages of pistol shooting. But while it's important, we're not just about shooting while we do the work out here. We'll talk about the best buffet around (at least in Utah!), my wore out gloves and tears in the pants, the gear choices, ergonomic factors on the the guns, and why I just can't seem to connect well at 200 yds with the excellent Rock River PDS carbine. The PFIs kind of slam the Sig P250 .45 ACP but I remain unphazed and will show them how it's supposed to be run in later parts. I can't help it if they suck with that trigger! Time flies and Part 1 ends.////////////////////////////Music licensed to TNP from Jason Shaw |
