    Default good vids to assist w/training?

    Preface: I think it's a given that sitting in front of the tube can never take the place of live training. So with that out of the way...


    What are some of your favorite vids for training, techniques and related gunstuff? Let's try to get a little resource thread going here. Store-bought vids are fine, youtube and other free resources are even better.

    Lately I've been enjoying Paul Gomez's youtube channel. Lots of great vids related to technique.

    I have not seen any of them, but I HEARD that the ones by Magpul Dynamics are pretty good. I attended a carbine training that used a lot of theory from Magpul and found it very useful.

    The Magpul vids are all on my wishlist. I'm hoping someone will chime in with some feedback.

    A buddy of mine purchased the set that Rob Pincus made a little while back. I really enjoyed it.

    Paul Gomez's youtube channel is definitely one to follow. Not enough people know that name and they should if they are serious about learning how to fight with guns.

    Sprrdhawk, Pincus is a good dude.

    Photoshooter, if you get the Magpul DVD's, at least you'll understand the basis of our weaponsystemplatform jokes.

    What do you want trining for? Self protection, training or just learning how to shoot better?

    Magpul Carbine 1 and 2 are great if you are into defensive carbine training. I don't think much of it is applicable to 3-gun though. Easily worth the prices paid.

    The Gabe Suarez Kalishnikov Rifle Gunfighting DVD by comparison is kind of simple, and not as good of a deal.

    I have the Magpul pistol DVD set, but haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

    I have a few Matt Burkett DVDs. Practical Shooting Vol.1 to 4. Competition based, but some of it can be applied to defensive shooting. You can read short reviews here.

    Check Valhalla Tactical for the Magpul DVDs. They've got the cheapest prices that I've seen yet. They also delivered quickly.

    I have several VHS tapes (yep, bought some time ago ) from Clint Smith and Gunsite.

    I have a friend that has several of Clint Smith's Thunder Ranch DVDs and he really likes them also.

    I'll also second the Louis Awerbuck "The Combat Shotgun" DVD, a friend let me borrow it and it was good.

    Scott Reitz has a new DVD (it came out last year) that I am probably going to put on my Christmas list.
