  • Sawyer and Aaron check out the Black Belt Standards put out by Scott Jedlinski of Modern Samurai Project. Both are running Glocks out of the AXIS Elite holsters.
    www.modernsamu...
    3 yards - Draw, 3 rounds a-zone, 2 rounds 3x5 head box - 2.00 seconds
    7 yards - Draw, 1 round a-zone - 1.00 seconds
    7 yards - Draw, 6 rounds a-zone - 2.00 seconds
    25 yards - Draw, 1 round a-zone - 1.5 seconds
    To earn the MSP Black Belt Patch you must pass these four standards in one of Scott's classes. They must be done in this order and consecutively.
    All standards are from concealment. If not concealed, then the following will be added to your time:
    Any holster no retention - Add .10 seconds.
    (Time is 2.00 add .1 for total of 2.10)
    ALS + SLS - Subtract .1
    ALS Only - No extra time added

    Great shooting guys. I pulled a Sawyer on my attempt in class and shot a .9 1 shot at the 7 but was just an inch wide. Clean the rest of the way. Walked away with a 3/4 baby black belt patch. Scott is definitely one of the best instructors I’ve ever trained with. Training with him hopefully twice next year, that black belt patch is top of my list to get next. Going for Donnovan’s standards next!

    Nice job! I just completed Scott's 2-day RDS class here in CT. He's an excellent instructor - so far, the best pistol class I've taken. And the drills are really challenging! Just as importantly, the drills give you something to work on on your own, even doing dry fire (to practice the draw). The RDS class is more than just "red dot." He gets deep into core competencies, and he shatters many of the myths perpetuated by so many instructors.

    I'm one the carriers both a Hand held on my person at all times + a WML on my G17 all the time as well. Along with a spare magazine. Both light serve completely different purposes out in the field. I use my HHL "Hand held light" every day for personal and work use. I'm in the PSD field and I'm using it for multiple reasons. Lights are a great tool to add...but you have to use them + learn to manipulate them in your hands/fingers to understand and except the different options you will learn/see from doing so. Off note:

    Nice shooting! I use Active Self Protection to get a data set on what self-defense encounters are like plus I've been in ones that I didn't have to shoot. It seems to me that it's extremely unlikely that a private citizen will use a gun mounted light outside the home. I carry a light as a non-lethal investigative tool as well as a method to light blind a possible assailant.

    I think Massad Ayoob made the most salient point on the weapon light issue.
    To paraphrase... For a self-defense situation, why are you going to use a flashlight? To identify and verify your target. Obviously. This by definition implies that if you identify a non-target, you have now pointed a lethal weapon at a civilian, one who could press charges on you even if you save their life. A handheld light allows you to identify targets, without pointing your weapon at them.
    Until I hear a better argument, this is the ideology I carry by.

    How many of the guys use a wedge on your holster? I'm like A-sizz, I prefer to adjust my holster by one adjustment to allow a better grip from draw, however I feel like it flips my grip out a little bit since I'm not quit as buff as Aaron 😅 so it doesn't sit flat against me.

    • @Tier1Concealed
      @Tier1Concealed  10 місяців тому +1

      Some of us use wedges, some don't. It also depends on the gun being carried, typically smaller subcompacts can benefit more from the wedges since they can be a little "top heavy" in the holster.

      You can get a WML and free up that other hand to make a superior grip on the pistol. Why is a handheld better? If it's because you don't want to think you have to use your WML for basic lighting tasks, have a handheld also.

      No, it must be done in one of Scott's classes to get a patch. That itself adds a whole new level of stress and difficulty
