This link will take you to reviews from past students across the country to give you an idea of the skills you'll learn that weekend. Training Thoughts - Threat Focused Forums
Mike and I will have our own food, and be setting up a grill for dinners. I'm sure there's enough grille space if others bring food.
Some will likely be heading to town for lunch, etc. It's 15 minutes to chow from the range so there'll be plenty of time to grab something and get back for the afternoon start.
Not sure what Rex has up his sleeve for his location, though I'm sure he'll chime in here shortly with his ideas.
I'm a vegan with a strict prohibition of garlic and onion. I'll be doing my own thing, not sure what yet though... lol.
I just picked up a kel-tec P3AT and a Kahr MK9. Gonna bring those too. I might even bring the wife after-all. I think she wants to come now that she has her own pistol.
I've got MRE's!!:rofl:
I will have full cooking facilities set up, so we can do anything needed, I will also have lots of water, about 60 gallons, a restroom for those that need one, gun cleaning facilities, and shade (there is none out there)
Fire restrictions should not be a problem, so bring a folding chair and enjoy a campfire with us!!
This is going to be a great class as well as a meetup of the people of DC.:hand10::hand10:
Hey Brownie, I don't want to hijack your thread, but I owe you a phone call;
Our funding failed, but we still have a house bill in the works for a new training budget for state narcotics agents. I'll keep you in the loop as much as possible.
Guys, Brownies class got great reviews from the locals here; don't be foolish and miss an opportunity to attend. When is the encore performance?
I'd like to get back into that area again early fall if possible. I plan on bringing another threat focused trainer as well this time who I've worked with in the past that brings lots of SD pistol skills to the plate.
Look for future Integrated Threat Focused Training Systems announcements re: locales and dates here in the future. I'll be back in the Dayton and Knoxville areas this fall, dates have not been confirmed at this time, but stay tuned.
Good to go on the panning, appreciate the effort sir.:hand10:

TacticalCompact,
I'm sure your wife will have a good time if she can make this with you.
well let me tell you I'm sunburnt and my hand hurts like hell. Day one down and I'm beat! We trained hard all day, I shot about 900 rounds. Thats quite the beating from a p40, let me tell you. I'm hurtin for certain but it was all worth it. I'll write more when I get home, posting from a cell phone is a pain. Tomorrow should be fun.
Lemme tell you, it was an absolute blast this weekend. I'll write a little thread on it later but for you guys who went, especially Brownie - that was just amazing. You all are a fine group. Hope to shoot more with you all again.
Tac - Get your wife on the forum. LOL Anyone who shoots that well should be around at least some forum like this and there aren't any better!
Thank you for attending the ITFTS training this weekend. I enjoyed meeting and training with everyone there. Looking forward to more of the same down the road one day.
Thanks again. Without people like yourself, ITFTS training would not exist.
Yes, what a great time and some extremely valuable street-level skills we obtained from Brownie this last weekend in Flagstaff. I can now honestly say that I can put three rounds from my P40 into a 1" group to the head of a TQ15 target at about 6 feet, FROM THE HIP.
Wow. I'll just say here for now that these skills are as Brownie says they are: natural. The P40 is not a gun to run like this, but using a Glock .40 I was amazed at how easily I could run and gun, keeping shots on target and fast as well.
Anyhow, Thanks for the great time everyone, Brownie and Mike especially for letting me borrow his Glock. Look for my post at the ITFTS forum soon.

TC---your three rds made that small a group, we saw it and no question you are capable of gettin er done.
What should be clarified relative your statement above is that it wasn't three successive shots on one string of fire [ which could be mistaken for pure luck and perhaps not repeatable but rather it was three seperate runs of one or two rds to the body from the hip in the Elbow Up/Elbow Down [ EU/ED ] position from the draw, then bumping that one shot to the head without moving the gun from your side [ proving it is repeatable and therefore reliable once you understand the "how" with this skill ]. Very impressive shooting as that 1" group of three shots were also literally dead center at the bridge of the BG's nose.:congrats:
You ran that P40 very well for the gun it is. Nothing lacking in the skills with that gun at all. You found the full size guns easier to shoot well, and that pretty much holds true for everyone. That G22 is Mikes duty gun, he doesn't loan it to anyone. When I later asked him why he offered you the use of it, he told me he wasn't worried about the gun in your hands after seeing you shoot the P40:smile:
Glad you and the Mrs. feel you came away with some valuable/useable street skills using a firearm, and enjoyed yourselves to boot while stepping through the various doors of knowledge offered in this course.
Looking forward to your AAR here as well as my own site. I appreciate both of you making the effort to attend last weekend as well.

Yes, I was quite impressed (and surprised) myself. Shooting from the hip, firing one shot COM then bumping a shot to the head, three times, with the three head shots making a single large hole right in the center of the BG's face was eye-opening.
I was also a little quizzical as to why Mike would let me borrow his duty-gun. I'm glad to hear he felt safe after watching me shoot, and I can't tell you how much I appreciated it. It was nice to be able to keep shooting, and especially nice to try out the G22 and G27!!
