“Not all shootings are scary, so don’t put that into your training and think that it’s always going to be, because it’s not always…” -Jared Reston 

In this episode we welcome back Jared Reston of Reston Group, LLC to discuss some of the nuances of training and instruction. Does it matter what a shooter is doing, so long as they’re doing so safely and putting bullets where they intended? Knowing that the goal is to make better shooters now, how can we strike the balance between setting new students up for success and giving them basic building blocks? Does the training community predispose students for emotional turmoil after a shooting? All of that and more in this weeks episode. Ballistic Radio is brought to you by Big Tex Ordnance, where every customer is a friend, not just an order.
How basic am I? Even my @phlster is pumpkin-spice. How basic am I? Even my @phlster is pumpkin-spice. Bought my @modlitesystems PL350 from show sponsor @bigtexordnance and it showed up today (fast shipping!) So far, I dig it.

I’ve been taking the last few days to make my en I’ve been taking the last few days to make my environment slightly less disordered, today one of the projects on my list was completely redoing my phone’s home screen as well as clearing out around 1,600 unread e-mails.  Why is this worthy of a post you might ask? I think anxiety at some of the world’s larger/uncontrollable events is something that most (not all) of us struggle with to a greater or lesser degree. After some excellent personal advice from @dangerpixieactual the other day, I’ve decided to focus on the “micro” level of my existence, specifically the things I have direct control over no matter how simple/inconsequential they seem. For me there’s a satisfaction and comfort that comes from orderly environments, so, that’s what I’m working on creating for myself currently.
A few weeks ago I picked this @official_staccato20 A few weeks ago I picked this @official_staccato2011 P DUO up and immediately (less than 24 hours later) ran it through Gabe White’s AMAZINGLY EXCELLENT two day Pistol Shooting Solutions class held at @impactshootingcenter Special thanks to @2011yoda for giving me the opportunity to get some time on a gun I’m seeing much more frequently in @citizensdefenseresearch classes. Also, massive shoutout to @phlster for their LB Enigma and @modlitesystems PL350 Floodlight. Between excellent instruction from Gabe and support gear that was set on “easy mode” I managed to perform pretty well that weekend. On an unrelated note, if you’re looking for some Ballistic Radio SWAG show sponsor @bigtexordnance is doing something pretty cool…
50 rounds WHO at 5 yards, .3-.4 splits. For me thi 50 rounds WHO at 5 yards, .3-.4 splits. For me this is excellent, and most importantly, CONSISTENT performance.
@northamericanrescue recently shared @armed_and_st @northamericanrescue recently shared @armed_and_styled ‘s excellent post regarding safely holstering a firearm. As one might expect, the comments were, special. 

Anyway, the point of this post is to point at that a properly set up AIWB holster does not cover any part of the shooter’s anatomy while holstering. 

“But what about holstering while seated?” 1. I’m trying to imagine any situation in a non-training environment that would require me to holster the pistol while seated and I’m having a difficult time coming up with anything.

2. IF you need to holster AIWB while seated, spread your legs and bridge your hips. 

Commence the “mah junk!” comments in 3…2…1.
These people are my family. If you saw us standing These people are my family. If you saw us standing next to each other you wouldn’t necessarily be able to tell, but I feel every bit as strongly about that connection as I would if we shared common genetic material, more so in fact. I am so thankful that I got time with them this last weekend, and even more grateful that another member of my family, @tamarakeel snagged a picture of us.
