Throwback Episode to our second show with Tom Givens, originally Ep. 40.

/////////////////////

As promised new Tactical Twin (Davis Twins) music at the beginning!  Let us know what you think.

This episode we have legendary firearms instructor Tom Givens back on the show.  This is an AAR based on Eric's experience taking the Rangemaster Instructor Development and Certification Class in Casa Grande AZ hosted by Cecil Burch of Immediate Action Combatives.  Tom is a 25 year law enforcement veteran, has been teaching firearms in some fashion since the 1970s, and has been teaching full time for 24 years. He is a prolific author with 6 books and 100s of magazine articles for the industry leading magazines, and is a highly successful competitive shooter.  Tom was also one of the founders of the International Defense Pistol Association (IDPA).  He teaches how to shoot effective but also how to defend yourself with the mindset that it is not the odds its the stakes.  In this episode, Tom's lecture on violent crime statistics alone may save peoples lives by helping them understand that you have a much higher chance then the mainstream would have you believe.   In addition, Tom has had over 65 students defend themselves successfully with a firearm, as he says, that is a demonstrable set of evidence all of us can learn from.

Cecil Burch is back on for his 4th appearance to talk about his new JiuJitsu academy, Gracie University affiliation.  We also talk about his collaboration with Darryl Bolke and Chuck Haggard for their NPE Counter Robbery course.  The course teaches you to think with a gun in your hand, make critical shoot, no shoot decisions, how to manage unknown contacts (MUC), use pepper spray properly all while considering being in an environment that is non-permissive where you may not be able to carry a full size blaster.  The course also has a force on force element that uses blue guns which aids in getting folks under pressure without being overly physical.
