AMEN, Brother, Preach!
This is my 3rd course with Randy, and it was a dandy!
Eric, who himself was a great aid in the learning process for us, summarized things very well. Besides the aforementioned I had some additional take aways:
The strengths and weaknesses of the AR and AK
The partial & full transfer drill
When it's appropriate to reload vs. transition
Contact Ready - Nice!
Obliques truly blow
Sul for the rifle
Optics are annoying in the rain
Temper your decision making paradigm with "..If it doesn't get you shot!"
Mid 90's with rain made day one fairly gnarley, but it was a no whine zone. My fellow students were safety conscious, and could run their guns. We worked "Dry" in the morning of day 1 to get familiar with new and exciting gun handling before going live with it. This approach yielded the desired results. OK, everyone repeat after me:
Is he down?
Does he have Friends?
Are they behind me?
How is my Rifle?
How am I?
Is he still down?
The vehicle dismount drills:
Worth the price of admission by itself. Where else can you train like this?? I mean, Really??
Overall ,it was what I've come to expect from Suarez International Training. No BS, straight forward techniques that have basis in reality from people who have used them.
Well worth the time and money. If you are on the fence about training with Suarez, don't be. Get training!
