My biggest pet peeve is when you walk in they make fun of your equipment. When I first got into shooting i walked into the classroom with a Glock 19 and a Glock range bag. The instructor was like oh we got a Glock fanboy here. I just turned around and left. Did a charge back. Then seeked out a better learning experience. No wonder that range went out of business in Omaha.
I mean if it's in good natured humor I'm okay with it but never from a place of seriousness. You don't learn shit because you felt judged the second you walked in. I have standards for gear to go to classes things like No Serpas, must have 5 magazines and 7 for rifle, chest rigs etc. As long as you have the "required gear" I don't care who makes it. I know some instructors that can kick my ass with a Bryco Jennings
There are lots of people in the industry who are full of shit. Trainers, gunsmiths, writers, and more. You can spot them by how they react when they unexpectedly encounter someone who is better than them. If they can not genuinely praise and support someone better than them that shows the kind of insecurity often borne by incompetence.

You forgot then go and pass a minimum 4 month academy with the failing score being anything below a 70 while being fed information from a firehouse.

This topic is near and dear to my heart!! I love to teach for the “ light bulb” or the “smile”! Meaning, when I break down component parts of the subject or application of a drill, I’m looking for the “aha” moment. I dearly love to see the “smile” on a students face when they learn, comprehend and apply the techniques being taught and succeed! No better reward than for a student to use techniques being taught and surpass me! I joke with students, reference to the old tv show “Kung Fu”, when you can take the bullet from my hand, it is time for you to leave!👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸 As always, great job!!’
Hell yes!!!!! That moment and you can physically see it is one of the greatest feelings as an instructor. I tell everyone I teach " alright now go practice, get better, and come back and kick my ass. Then I'll get better and come for you."
I'm glad to have had the opportunity to take two classes run by IWI locally here in PA. Tom, who runs their training has experience teaching civilians, law enforcement and military and is able to modify how he teaches individuals on the range in real time depending on what they need to learn. I will be looking into expanding into other courses in the near future, but I feel I got a really solid foundation of skills from the two courses I took. Training costs money, and not everyone can afford to do a lot, but it seems there's enough out there available that there's almost no excuse to not get any training whatsoever. One other thing I'd add to the list of uncomfortable truths if you're just getting into training is to be careful with instructors who teach a lot of military based techniques to civilians. There can be serious legal consequences for using certain techniques in a civilian setting and the instructor needs to be able to communicate that to their students.
I've watched some of your videos before but this made me subscribe. Excellent break down on instructors and what to look for. As an instructor myself this is stuff I see consistently. Ego, hubris, emotional attachment, cognitive dissonance, dunning kruger, institutional dogma, etc all seem to be a common denominator in these types of instructors. It is a huge problem in law enforcement training. Chuck is a great dude! Every damn Blowers class I've tried to get into either has gotten canceled due to lack of people signing up or double booking accidently. I will get in one eventually haha. Keep up the good work.
I got to think that Cracker Barrel might be the worst place to pop off, because I figure half of the people in there are packing, and would not enjoy having their breakfast interrupted.
Thank you, it's a sore subject for me. I view me teaching what I teach as a responsibility. You may need those skills the next day and it could save you or your loved ones life. It would be hard to learn that someone died running some BS I was pushing
Great Video. What's really Thee Harshest Truth is the people who don't think they need Training. If I hear the words "Administrative", "Downrange Rule", "180° Rule" or "Unload Show Clear", I'm out. If their "Range Safety Rules" include more than 4 Cardinal Rules, I'm out. If the class isn't at an Outdoor Range, I'm out.
No kidding, i just want to immediatly leave if there are a bunch of dumb rules that dont make anyone safer. Real world doesnt have any of that. I sometimes see cases where someone has a crook breaking in and they have to go unlock their gun and then load a mag and they get 0-10 rounds loaded before use. In the effort to be safer they just made the situation more dangerous and its just stupid.
I’m roughly your equivalent in TN (former .mil, current LE firearms instructor)I could not agree more on all points! So many FIs are “parrots.” They repeat what they’ve been told, but don’t have any understanding as to the “why.”
Someone endlessly giving their resume, is trying to convince everyone, but mostly themselves, they're qualified, capable the right person. It's a massive insecurity. It happens everywhere, with any and everything. Once you start to see it, you can't not notice it.
I went for the MSP black belt, accidentally broke a 7th shot on the bill drill and eliminated myself. Brain was screaming “stop”, finger said to go fk myself. Certs are chased by a lot of guys for social media and clout, not necessarily because they want to be better.
As someone who is starting a business being a instructor you hit the nail on rhe head... As a instructor you should ALWAYS be taken courses because even the common recommended things aren't 100% you never know when you'll take a course from a well versed instructor with experience in life who's got a few gems of instruction... anyone instructing should be constantly striving to learn EVERYTHING they can
@@PJ_Perry I owned my own FI training company in the Nashville area (I sold it after 3 years). I was constantly taking outside classes and learned from all. Even if it was a shit class, I still learned what NOT to do/teach. Good luck with your business!
Where would you recommend we find drills and what a respectable standard would be ? Some of the standards for LEO and Guards have a huge amount of time to shoot for their cert that it requires no practice of this perishable skill.
I like your analogy of certifications. They have little value other than showing competency. I have always viewed the classes I have taken as kind of pointless unless I wanted to learn some drills and role play scenarios. I can practice drills by myself and am considering recording drills in place of certifications.
Classes are great at exposing you to new concepts for you to turn into homework but you have to do the homework. I film myself all the time and use coaches view to slow it down and find faults. I'm about to start posting 2 to 3 drills a week as UA-cam shorts complete with time standards. I've collected my drills from doing this for so long, but I also write and proof drills and I am more than happy to get you times, standards, targets etc just email me
This is a good video. People need to learn more about this. I would love to be an instructor but it's not worth it in the state I live at (CA) till I move.
3:40 This is incredibly true. If i shoot regularly, say twice a month, i will shoot like a laser. If I take off for a year I am back to novice with pistol groups that look like i hit it with buckshot at 100 yards.
Chuck Pressburg's no fail pistol drill videos have very few views (10 in 20 at 25 has 16 thousand views in the last six years). That tells me that pistol owners fall into one of three categories - the vast majority who have no idea what they're doing, the ones who make an effort to be decent, and those who are dedicated to actually improving their skills. The second and third groups are really, really small in comparison to the total number of gun owners. I know which of those groups I'd want to be with if anything happens, though.
I've been told that lol. I genuinely love teaching guns, tactics, lowlight, precision rifle. I've dedicated my life to thw craft and love sharing it and it misses me off when marginal at best D.U.S.T. of the firearms world show, tell us how great they are, take money from folks, then someone get hurt or killed from the shit they peddle
Great video I’m also an instructor lol but you have a great point I have so many of others students coming to me because instructors are just taking money now and days for just a a cert they feel they got in a class that was way to fast. Half don’t now anything from the class. Great video
Training is teaching, or developing in oneself or others, any skills and knowledge or fitness that relate to specific useful competencies. Training has specific goals of improving one's capability, capacity, productivity and performance.). In addition to the basic skills, you may continue beyond initial competence to maintain, upgrade and update skills throughout working life. People learn in multiple ways, viewing, applying application, vocally and a combination of them all. A person obtains 70% the day of training, and each day goes by the information obtained is lost. Only repetitions after the information and application have been provided can enforce the information given. Take the lessons taught in class and practice them when you go to the range and learn to analyze what happened.
Explaining things in a complicated manner is my biggest complaint. Next is going too fast, and not allowing for mental digestion of the information being taught. Educators seem to forget where they came from too often.
True experts are less common than people think, great teachers are also uncommon...those that can, and do, both are rare and worth the investment to learn from.
Spot on 👍🏻 What really gets me is that those so called instructors have to get full arm tats to make them Look badass. There’s a lot of bad and ridiculous UA-cam / I was a navy seal - special ops dude but shoot like shit. My mentor when I got serious about it was “ Ronin Tactics “. He’s the real deal ! 🇺🇸❤️
It’s not what you know or what you can do but how you can articulate and effectively deliver curriculum to students. An instructor can show off their 25 yard no fail or their bill drill and ooh and ah students but if they can’t teach students the skills and how to effectively stop a threat at distance, up close, and in between then what are the students learning.
Excellent video, thank you Next time I get a training course I will ask for these particular tips & pay attention to what the instructors ego and skill level is before I continue
Not a single incorrect statement was made here. There are a lot of people hanging a shingle out without additional training and have no clue how to teach to all learning styles.
11B20 71-77 Trained by Amatuers R US, I'm basically qualified not to shoot myself. I have a striker fired pistol w/ Red dot light and laser to IWBA CCW. I think you should be familiar with what the military may be carrying and U have to be able to use it, as we are all the militia, it makes me nervous, ( too many years with heavy triggers & bad finger habits) so in an SHTF I'll probably run Old School DA/SA or a 1911. Hammer back safety off means ready to go.
when you get REALLY good, all you need is airsoft, dryfire and gunhandling, to stay better than most swat cops or SEALS (with a pistol) at realistic stuff. most of the time in real life, you dont even have to fire, IF you get the gun noticed in time. Most attacks are not made with guns. That means you can't shoot the guy beyond about 10 FEET. Draw and point it at him, sure, at 20 ft if he's stationary, with a knife/club, or at 40 ft if he's charging you. MISSES and poor hits have changed a lot of minds, too. Jerry Miculck could go 10 YEARS without touching a handgun and still outshoot this guy.. Realistic handgun skill is NOT nearly as perishable as people claim, cause they want to make money off of training, you, clicks on yt, etc. The problem most people have is two fold. They are trying to shoot too far away (ie, beyond 20 ft) at too small a target. The brain is too small a mark beyond about 10 ft. and even less distance if the guy is moving. If you start hand in pocket, you can easily stay capable of a reaction, draw and chest hit at 10 ft in sub 1.0 second and that's faster than all but a dozen men in the world if they are using a belt big, under a shirt, starting hand at their sides. When you smell a rat, get a hand into your pocket, on that gun, in a firing grip. Velcro the kydex front pants pocket rig into your pocket. If the pants pockets have to be enlarged, get it done.
I've heard you claim on this channel that you shoot 40,000 rounds a year, yet I don't think I've seen you present a single shooting demonstration or drill to back up all of the advice you give.
@@MsDasnake Since you pay nothing to watch his content and what UF says is sound (even if you’d want to debate a point, still sound), why do you act like he owes you that? Not just here, but on all UA-cam, I’m always amazed by people who watch free content and then act like they are owed something.

I think you should be familiar with what the military may be carrying and U have to be able to use it, as we are all the militia, it makes me nervous, ( too many years with heavy triggers & bad finger habits) so in an SHTF I'll probably run Old School DA/SA or a 1911. Hammer back safety off means ready to go.
when you get REALLY good, all you need is airsoft, dryfire and gunhandling, to stay better than most swat cops or SEALS (with a pistol) at realistic stuff. most of the time in real life, you dont even have to fire, IF you get the gun noticed in time. Most attacks are not made with guns. That means you can't shoot the guy beyond about 10 FEET. Draw and point it at him, sure, at 20 ft if he's stationary, with a knife/club, or at 40 ft if he's charging you. MISSES and poor hits have changed a lot of minds, too. Jerry Miculck could go 10 YEARS without touching a handgun and still outshoot this guy.. Realistic handgun skill is NOT nearly as perishable as people claim, cause they want to make money off of training, you, clicks on yt, etc. The problem most people have is two fold. They are trying to shoot too far away (ie, beyond 20 ft) at too small a target. The brain is too small a mark beyond about 10 ft. and even less distance if the guy is moving. If you start hand in pocket, you can easily stay capable of a reaction, draw and chest hit at 10 ft in sub 1.0 second and that's faster than all but a dozen men in the world if they are using a belt big, under a shirt, starting hand at their sides. When you smell a rat, get a hand into your pocket, on that gun, in a firing grip. Velcro the kydex front pants pocket rig into your pocket. If the pants pockets have to be enlarged, get it done.
I've heard you claim on this channel that you shoot 40,000 rounds a year, yet I don't think I've seen you present a single shooting demonstration or drill to back up all of the advice you give.
I don't film in uniform but there are a bunch coming everything from dots to cans. I'm on the range a bunch but I'm usually at work
@@unclefreedom213Looking forward to it.

Since you pay nothing to watch his content and what UF says is sound (even if you’d want to debate a point, still sound), why do you act like he owes you that?
Not just here, but on all UA-cam, I’m always amazed by people who watch free content and then act like they are owed something.
3rd comment! Watching video right now Unc. Love your stuff and was in the 1st 1000 followers, I believe.
Uncle Freedom ranting in 1.25-1.5× speed is very entertaining
@@brianc3100 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Thank you!
@@brianc3100omg 😂
I refuse to pay for training that I can do for free by doing things myself plus static training is almost useless, no one is going to stand still
I haven't taken a class in 5 or 6 years where i stood still. I agree you can do a lot on your own but then again you don't know what you don't know.
James Yeager comes to mind.....
In what way?

How so?
