I’m a teenager coming from a liberal family, and I’m super disappointed that I’ve never gotten the opportunity to participate in something as fun as shooting. Colion’s videos have made me want to eventually get into competitive shooting, and every day I watch some kind of gun content that only deepens my love for firearms. Go staccato!!
There's no group more welcoming, so just go to a range as soon as you're able and make some new friends. 95% of gun enthusiasts won't make fun of you for making mistakes, and the 5% are generally people you wouldn't want to know anyway.
@@tonymedrano986 what. That’s a phrase that means older people tend to be less willing to change their ways in life, not that they lack the ability to.
Yea, did you notice his off hand was just as precise in movement... That is hard to train your body that way. Only thing that bugged me was using the pistol butt as a hand rest. I wasn't trained that way, that's an aggressive posture. You see me do that, you're about to be engaged. So immediately I'd be on high alert with a stranger. No bueno on an open range. Still he'll teach you how to hit fo'sho
@@ScrappyXFL i get your perspective 100% but between cowboy movies and every cop ive ever seen(referring to the chill ones here) it just seems natural with the right demeanour Kinda like holding the straps to a back back or the top of the plate on a carrier youre wearing

Man you have to do it. I'm 65 years old and I'm going to shoot a USPSA match for the first time in April. I can't be more excited. For me just going out and doing it, hanging with cool people is just fun. Realistically I'm not hoping to become a grandmaster but just maybe I will bust the A zone a couple times. Keep up the great content.
Great to see Brooke here. Been following her with Crossfit for some time, and she's the real deal. Didn't know she was into shooting, but am impressed yet again.
Don’t worry about embarrassing yourself, you will and so has everyone else who competes, what it gives you is trigger time under pressure that you don’t get a in a practice or class. Having worked under pressure makes you better when it counts.
You know what I like about your channel, it's real. You do things and if you mess up, you can laugh at yourself, I like that. I don't like channels that try to make every video perfect.
As a new shooter, new to the world of firearms in general and now carrying daily, this is the next level of training I'm looking into, practical application/training. At first blush, this is mildly intimidating with my "basic" shadow systems MR920 carry pistol. No high speed, special purpose equipment here. Just a kydex holster and magazines in my pocket. That's how I walk around, that's how I want to train. But what this highlights is what I've found, a great community. Regardless of level, equipment, or training goals, this community is all about everyone getting better, sharing knowledge, and lifting people up. It's great!! To new shooters, breaking down that stigma is huge. Keep it up.
It's all about efficiency of movement. Like Michelle said, the speed of shots isn't the focus, it's the movement between the shots is where all the time is either gained or lost. That's especially important in PRS. Quickly moving from one position to the next, building a solid position, get on target THEN slow down on your shots. Two words, dry fire. Speed will come but you definitely have to work at it. Any sport can be extremely humbling but it's very rewarding. The shooting community is filled with fantastic people always willing to help "new" shooters out.
What I really enjoy about this channel is the diversity of content. You cover fun ones like this and a real world perspective to serious problems. I appreciate what you do with this channel.
What a genuinely spontaneous practice session. Also, don’t be afraid of embarrassing yourself. You shoot well enough already that you’ll probably do just fine. I was way nervous at my first comp, but I definitely want to participate in more of them and improve!
Watching you run a course with Michelle, Brooke, and Tim was amazing. Now I want to watch all 4 of you do it with a 1911, iron sights, with a combat reload. Just for fun.
I shoot competition, not to win or place, but to learn how to improve from the other competitors. Don't worry about how well you shoot, just go to the competition and have FUN!
That was cool! Two of my group of favorite shooters/guntoobers in the same video. Awesome video by Colion, including Tony, Brooke and of course, Michelle!
Like you I enjoy shooting and have for years. I got my first rifle when I was 7 years old. I grew up around guns and have the upmost respect for them. I have some really old ones as well. I took one to a gunsmith for an inspection and good cleaning and he was amazed as he had never seen this type of rifle before. I went to pick it up and he told me it was made in 1947 and for it's age was in excellent condition. We shot it the other day and my son said he was not expecting that kind of recoil and watching the video the 2nd shot you could see him tighten up on it. The rifle we were shooting was a 35 cal. Remington.
Yoo, Brooke is freakin' stacked!!! Also, I need an instructor like that guy. He seems patient yet very clear with instructions and no BS. Edit: there's definitely some chemistry between Michelle and Colion
Since ammo prices skyrocketed I haven't been able to practice like I used to. But I do hit the range occasionally. It's a perishable skill and it shows. Love these types of vids Colion! Keep making them!
@@Soleshooter4 - better, but I doubt they'll ever make it back down to Trump prices again. Besides, the way things are going stocking up seems like the wiser move. I still practice here and there, but not as often as I used to, and not 150 - 200 rounds/session any more either.
To anyone - It's all different types of shooters from hunters, competition, tactical, law enforcement & military. You just have to keep consistent with training relax don't be stiff or in your head too much. Remember it's fun if you mess up own it & try to do better next time. Colion good luck with your future possible competitions 👍🏻
Man this brings back a ton of memories. I loved competition shooting. 2 decades ago when I was shooting regularly the cost of ammo was so much cheaper. It’s a shame how much the cost increased.
2:29 "honestly one of the most beautiful guns I have ever laid my eyes on. If you disagree with it I don't care, I still think it is." Love it. Great Video. Fun, interesting, and informative. Thank you.
Been following Brooke for a few years now and never realized she was into shooting. It's awesome to see such a beast in the fitness world also be training firearms to that level.
"He asked me a question I actually get asked from a lot of people which is...'Do you ever actually practice law?'" JK. I couldn't resist. Thanks for what you’re doing.
Law? You mean like logistics of ammunition to wanting? Yeah! He does that all the time, he wants ammunition and he need to make sure it’s in stock before he buys 😂
@seang1032 wrong. Doctors, like lawyers, tax accountants etc. If they don't keep up with the learning forever they eventually lose their qualifications as they get caught out as shit at their job, which can lead to negligence, fraud and malpractice suits against them and jail time.
In my firearms journey, i've moved passed competition shooting and onto advocacy and education. The best impact anyone can do for this movement is to invite people to the range and get them familiar!
This was interesting to see. I don’t know competition shooting other than quick draw so this was an eye opener. Great video and they would be very scary if someone was to be an active shooter. I really hope this gets more popular. Thank you for being who you are and keep them ‘em coming, sir.
Don't confuse competition shooting with real life combat shooting. They are totally different. Competition shooting does teach you gun handling skills, and marksmanship. Real self defense force on force training, using simunitions scenarios, will get you what the concealed carrier needs the most- realism.
I am literally brand new to the sport. i was looking for a new hobby and for decades have always had a slight interest in competitive shooting. Knowing of Colion from videos and shows that have popped up , i decided i would start learning from him as my first source . Its great to see an expert like him not self absorbed but always looking for for more information from as much sources as he can. thanks colion, John from australia :)
Gotta love badass, confident women who can shoot with the best and take care of themselves...feels like this is becoming more and more rare these days.
Okay, that's a tough training course I'd never pass. So happy you guys are on my side. Or, I'm on your side. Thanks so much for just being Americans. You're my neighbors and friends.
Colion, I’ve watched many of your videos, they are all good… but this was a real treat in comparison. We learned about your goals, saw you shoot.. and even met some of your friends. Great content. Just sayin’.
Great video. Even if you don't do competitions. It is always fun getting out and learning something new. I definitely think this sort of training would come in handy for home defense. That is definitely one nice pistol. I always love seeing the different firearms that you have picked up.
This was a great video! The young lady made a very valid point, it's not how fast you shoot, getting there fast allows for more accurate shots. I've always taught, speed is fine accuracy is final. The gentleman also made a very important point, there are STEPS to increase your proficiency! Well done, awesome video!
I think you should definitely look into it. Looks like you had a good time, it’s different, new learning experience, and furthering your love and passion in what you do. We may not be there physically but we support you and what you do. As always, great content. Keep it going, keep it coming.
I was fortunate enough to be able to have Michelle give myself and two friends a shooting lesson at Caswells in Mesa so many years ago. Super cool young lady!
Any type of shooting impacts you're overall ability to get hits. I don't think the bad guys are going to stand still while you shoot at them and it's a bad idea for you to stand still as well. Moving and shooting is a learning experience that you will never forget and in my opinion can't be practiced enough like the trainer said on your toes your gun goes to pogo mode!! You'd be surprised how much core and lower back/hips are involved in this discipline! Great job sir!!
Reminds me of some advice some old shooters told me, Those are games (with guns). Will it help you shoot, a little. But until the targets are shooting back at you, it is still just games!
I loved shooting competition pistol (UKPSA) events prior to the handgun ban in 1997 - sadly not one of those guys who can keep their guns in Europe and travel to practice & compete. Great to see you want to seriously try competition - good luck
Thanks for being an intelligent, well spoken and well-informed advocate for gun rights and the 2A community. I always love that your videos make realistic argument's that can't easily be dismissed as just another gun nut! Keep up the fight.
Excuses! Just do it, dive in and take the first step and just get started. Things we say we want to do, but don't have the "time" to do - that it is just excuses. Get started and if it's for you, you will make the time to do it more regularly. What's better than training and repetition, with the competition part of it as a motivation factor to get better, and in the end you will have more experience if that moment comes when you need to protect yourself or others. You will also probably get some kind of content out of it, win-win!
That Ruger 380 Security you showed about a week ago is going to be my next gun. I think it will be a good gun for me with my bad hands, plus it looks like a great gun that will be fun to shoot.
I LOVE your enthusiasm (I lost mine decades ago). And I cannot really afford to shoot much anymore, but I recognize that the "shot" that I may have to take someday is not what it used to be. My engineering licenses expire next april (nuclear and mechanical), and nobody will hire a 64 years old engineer. So my budget is pretty much limited to necessities, such as house, utilities, and beer and vodka. I had to sell my car, so I won't be getting any DUIs! Love ya, Colion!
Have you considered going into consulting work? Your age and length of experience is an ASSET there. No, nobody is going to hire you to actually DO anything, but they still value your wealth of knowledge
The reality is the instructor and his two sidekick are probably there every day Esau is in his element!. YOUR first time at that range Colion you did very well ,.
You can feel the high school crush tension between Colion and Michelle. 😂 And what did she mean by. "I want to shoot your gun." Of which Colion responded with, "this one?" 😱🤣
You get a thumbs up just for the sexiness of the Staccato alone... but honestly just started 3 gun tournaments in February and man, what a great time! Would highly recommend it!
O h my God Michelle has got it going on! I can't believe my eyes. So confident and so good looking. She is the definition of cool. Wowed me Thank you Colin.
You hold yourself to such a high standard!! You are the Man!!! Even if you were slow & missed targets you shouldn’t feel embarrassed ( as you know shooters are always willing to help) & you have mastered law,speaking, so much information on firearms 🤷🏻♂️ if you weren’t a master in the beginning I wouldn’t hold it against you!!!! & practice will make you better!! We love you for you bro !! & I can only imagine the pressure you put on yourself!! Pretend your giving someone advice on starting to compete ( it’s for fun, camaraderie & to add tools to your skill set ✌️
it's difficult to explain how happy i am when i see based black americans joining in and enjoying using firearms and helping support the second amamdment... rock on, hoss.... love the channel, and keep up the good work!!!
I think without practice, I've shot enough that under most cases, I would do ok. But, I know that my odds go way up, more so if multiple targets, the more you practice. One thing that really showed this to me was while in the Marines, I had a 45cal. 1911 and as much ammo as I wanted to shoot. The 45 had a bent front sight, but in a short time I could unload on a moving soda can or hit a bird on a power line, with out even thinking about the bent sight. For that gun to me or my fellow Marine around me, it had to do what was needed and I didn't want it hitting something that didn't need hitting like a civilian or follow Marine.
Yes indeed this instruction is excellent Fundamentals of Instruction A+ . What a privilege to learn from this . She still smoked this course and he got faster it works . Competition is good it makes us effective. Work on quality the speed will merge in . Cheers. It’s on my bucket list to run a course with this crew .
I don't own a firearm yet, and won't own one for carry till I get training. I don't like the idea that I would use it inappropriately, and potentially cause more of a problem. Thanks for the USCCA info :)
I love your videos, Colion, but I'm not gonna lie; as soon as Tony started teaching, you were a secondary character, and all I wanted was to pick up some shooting tips. 😅
Colion I love your style I enjoy your videos and thank you for being such a voice for the second amendment and teaching us new shooting Techniques . It's always good to see people having fun while learning how to do things.
I’m a teenager coming from a liberal family, and I’m super disappointed that I’ve never gotten the opportunity to participate in something as fun as shooting.

Young men, pay attention: he's still humble enough to ask questions and learn.

Don’t worry about embarrassing yourself, you will and so has everyone else who competes, what it gives you is trigger time under pressure that you don’t get a in a practice or class. Having worked under pressure makes you better when it counts.
I agree. That is why everyone should run a combat course of fire at least once to feel the pressure of time and making hits.
Saw Brooke shoot and first thing that came to mind was Sarah Connor in Terminator 2 ha ha. Excellent episode
I was thinking the same thing!!!

Thanks for being an intelligent, well spoken and well-informed advocate for gun rights and the 2A community. I always love that your videos make realistic argument's that can't easily be dismissed as just another gun nut! Keep up the fight.
It's cool when people I follow from different reasons cross over. Nice seeing Brooke.
Excuses! Just do it, dive in and take the first step and just get started. Things we say we want to do, but don't have the "time" to do - that it is just excuses. Get started and if it's for you, you will make the time to do it more regularly.
What's better than training and repetition, with the competition part of it as a motivation factor to get better, and in the end you will have more experience if that moment comes when you need to protect yourself or others. You will also probably get some kind of content out of it, win-win!
More former crossfitters moving to shooting and tactical shooting....love it.
Show this from concealed carry which is the way most of us carry. That would be impressive and informative.
Michelle is sooo smooth at racking. I can watch all day long.
Was that a double-entendre? LOL
That Ruger 380 Security you showed about a week ago is going to be my next gun. I think it will be a good gun for me with my bad hands, plus it looks like a great gun that will be fun to shoot.
I love the fitness I'm seeing. It's one thing to shoot and another to shoot and be able to move. Nice video. HalleluYah!
Nice. Love seeing this competitive content and some banter. 😂😊
Michelle has a smooth pace, shots evenly paced. I can’t do that.
Another excellent video! Thank you good sir! And as always... Stay safe, keep carrying and God bless.
I LOVE your enthusiasm (I lost mine decades ago). And I cannot really afford to shoot much anymore, but I recognize that the "shot" that I may have to take someday is not what it used to be. My engineering licenses expire next april (nuclear and mechanical), and nobody will hire a 64 years old engineer. So my budget is pretty much limited to necessities, such as house, utilities, and beer and vodka. I had to sell my car, so I won't be getting any DUIs! Love ya, Colion!
BUDGET - brew & distill your own , motorised bicycle 75mpg - buy ammo with huge savings from all the above - 💥excuses gone !
Have you considered going into consulting work? Your age and length of experience is an ASSET there. No, nobody is going to hire you to actually DO anything, but they still value your wealth of knowledge
The reality is the instructor and his two sidekick are probably there every day Esau is in his element!. YOUR first time at that range Colion you did very well ,.
You are right. In any sport, it boils down into how much time you put into practice. That's it. Its that simple.
👍
Proper Practice Prevents Poor Performance
14:20 hahaha ouch. "He always shoots quicker then he needs too".
Wonferul video, love the interaction, and just chill vibe here. Thanks!
It seems like they may have "history". I wonder if she was calling him a "2 minute shooter" on sly. 16:25
You can feel the high school crush tension between Colion and Michelle.
😂
And what did she mean by. "I want to shoot your gun."
Of which Colion responded with, "this one?" 😱🤣
You get a thumbs up just for the sexiness of the Staccato alone... but honestly just started 3 gun tournaments in February and man, what a great time! Would highly recommend it!
O h my God Michelle has got it going on! I can't believe my eyes. So confident and so good looking. She is the definition of cool. Wowed me
Thank you Colin.
Even with that embarrassing D.Q. Outch
You hold yourself to such a high standard!! You are the Man!!! Even if you were slow & missed targets you shouldn’t feel embarrassed ( as you know shooters are always willing to help) & you have mastered law,speaking, so much information on firearms 🤷🏻♂️ if you weren’t a master in the beginning I wouldn’t hold it against you!!!! & practice will make you better!! We love you for you bro !! & I can only imagine the pressure you put on yourself!! Pretend your giving someone advice on starting to compete ( it’s for fun, camaraderie & to add tools to your skill set ✌️
Thank you for the video. And, as always, good advice given.
it's difficult to explain how happy i am when i see based black americans joining in and enjoying using firearms and helping support the second amamdment...
rock on, hoss....
love the channel, and keep up the good work!!!
That lady works out holy smokes!🔥
Brooke is JACKED
She was a crossfit games athlete, and also one of the Amazon women in Wonder Woman 😅
Colion, awesome watching you putting yourself out there! Especially in front of us fans. Good shooting, btw. Thanks for a great podcast!
I think without practice, I've shot enough that under most cases, I would do ok. But, I know that my odds go way up, more so if multiple targets, the more you practice. One thing that really showed this to me was while in the Marines, I had a 45cal. 1911 and as much ammo as I wanted to shoot. The 45 had a bent front sight, but in a short time I could unload on a moving soda can or hit a bird on a power line, with out even thinking about the bent sight. For that gun to me or my fellow Marine around me, it had to do what was needed and I didn't want it hitting something that didn't need hitting like a civilian or follow Marine.
Yes indeed this instruction is excellent Fundamentals of Instruction A+ . What a privilege to learn from this . She still smoked this course and he got faster it works . Competition is good it makes us effective. Work on quality the speed will merge in . Cheers. It’s on my bucket list to run a course with this crew .
Very cool seeing you put yourself out there.
Love you're content as someone who is going to be getting into shooting and purchasing my 1st gun, you're videos have thought me a lot. Appreciate it.
I don't own a firearm yet, and won't own one for carry till I get training. I don't like the idea that I would use it inappropriately, and potentially cause more of a problem. Thanks for the USCCA info :)
I'm 70 and started uspsa at 66. Ugh, don't be embarrassed, just try to get better and enjoy the ride!
Brooke is a shooter?!? I had no idea! I've followed her during Crossfit.
I thought the same thing Chad. When I heard him introduced her and heard her name my ears perked up and said no way.
That was impressive. You’re shooting is always fast and very precise. I wish I could do what you do and as often. Keep spreading the word. 👊🏻
Brooke making me realize that I'm not in the gym enough. Those arms were ripped.
She was a crossfit games athlete, she is freakin amazing
Colion just remember that your faith is stronger than your doubt. Go do your thing and thrive 💪🏽💪🏽
9:16 "I wanna shoot your gun." ... That was code.
This one? ;-)
I love Michelle, she’s a reason to move to Texas! Michelle, my Bell ❤😊 in her presence I feel totally protected
I love your videos, Colion, but I'm not gonna lie; as soon as Tony started teaching, you were a secondary character, and all I wanted was to pick up some shooting tips. 😅
Walk like a Marine, from the waste down. Great video that gives us an idea of what you do at the events.
Thank you.
Take care,
Be safe
Brooke brought the biggest guns to the range.
Colion I love your style I enjoy your videos and thank you for being such a voice for the second amendment and teaching us new shooting Techniques . It's always good to see people having fun while learning how to do things.
Hey man sometimes that embarrassment feeds the drive to do what u need to in order to get better
I’m just happy to see gun tubers looking at competition!!
Brooke's arms scare me.
Michelle is awesome I’ve been following her videos for years from back when she was with Glock. They are all amazing
Go Colion! I'd love to see you compete. It's so much fun...and SO good for every aspect of your shooting!
Such a lucky man to get to practice and meet Michelle Viscusi!! I am so jealous!!
