The video shared is older, but it shows Jerry Miculek setting a world record for fast revolver shooting.
I have recently heard he set another speed record at the 2017 Shot Show, but I have not found any video of it yet.
I really enjoy Jerry Miculek’s videos, he is humble, talented, and enjoys both shooting and sharing shooting with others.
There is no doubt that he has information to share when it comes to shooting. Not just revolvers, even though that is his specialty, but all manner of guns.
What he does with a shoulder fired Barrett .50 is nothing short of amazing.
I am not posting a full article with the next couple videos. I wanted to experiment making videos using my class PowerPoint presentations. I did feel the need to be a little briefer in my explanations of the slides than I normally am in class, but that’s because in class, with me jumping around and passing around training aids it takes me about 45 minutes to an hour to describe the concepts I posted here. I don’t think I can keep a YouTube Audience interested for an hour long Handgun video.
As always, these handgun videos do not take the place of live interaction with a qualified instructor. This is just another attempt to use a new medium to help give a new shooter a starting point in their training so they may feel a little more comfortable in a formal class.
I hope this experiment in turning my class PowerPoints into posts is useful. I have lots of class material and would love to share it. I think that information should be freely shared. Time, however, is limited and valuable so I still have to charge for classes.
I like teaching handgun classes and as soon as I can get everything squared away I want to start teaching at the land so I can share more information face to face.
Clint Smith is an expert on the use of Defensive Firearms. He is a Marine Corps Infantry vet, SWAT officer, and has been running Thunder Ranch since 1993.
I like his style, this thought process, and how he teaches. When I teach firearms classes, there are several techniques and lessons that I share that I gleaned from Mr. Smith.
I have searched YouTube for good training videos to share, and I have found several clips of Thunder Ranch training videos. Think of them as advertisements for their full length training videos. (I don’t gain anything from this, but I do think there videos are a valuable and worthwhile purchase.)
As a family man home defense is very important aspect of my preparedness planning. Personal Protection in the Home was one of the first NRA courses I got certified to teach, and it is remains a priority to me as I age.
