Name any aspect of shooting and defense and people will be willing to debate it. Firearm choice, caliber, manner of carry, holster choice, grip, presentation, stance, instructor…there are nearly as many opinions as there are shooters and teachers. RECOIL is going to begin running a series of instructional videos addressing some of these issues, and to do so we'll be talking to a diverse group of SMEs. This will hopefully provide a wide range of opinions, some of which might even be contradictory. We'll ask them to talk about the fundamentals, we'll ask them to talk about advanced skillsets, we may ask them to talk about their gear. You may find yourself nodding your head at what they say. You may find yourself disagreeing. Either of those reactions is okay – it is through intelligent discourse and debate that learning occurs. First up in this new instructional series is Falcon Operations Group. Charles and Anson are going to talk to you about basic stance and grip with an AR15 rifle. Stay tuned for future installments. FOG is on YouTube here, on Facebook here and on Instagram right here.
