They should be firing AR15's, you know rapid fire to truly simulate what gunfire sounds like!


We are definitely living in the Twilight Zone

Apparently with the right technique you can rapid fire any semi-auto rifle even without a bumpstock, too. (There's a video on this on YouTube showing how to do it. Bump stocks just make it easier to pull off.)

An active shooter is going to be pulling the trigger as fast as they can. Not just walking around shooting every ten-fifteen seconds.

Lawmakers who are reluctant to cross the NRA by enacting common sense regulations should be taught what the pain of having your balls kicked up between your shoulder blades feels like.

Folks interested in becoming a trainer should submit their applications promptly. Classes fill up fast.
