Barricades for Realistic Range Training | Tactical Rifleman

- Special "Thanks" to the great team at The Range Complex, outside of Ft. Bragg, for letting us train & film on some of their great ranges and training areas. If you are in NC, and are looking for great training; start at The Range Complex.
Everyone talks about "Realistic Training." Realistic training requires developing combat skills to deal with threats in a 360-degree environment. The problem is that most shooters only shoot on square ranges. We understand that this is often a legal restriction, dealing with range fans of public range complexes. However, this often lends to shooters developing what we call a "Square-Range Mentality;" where shooters often develop bad habits, like never seeking cover, never scanning for more threats, and only shooting in one direction (down range) comfortably.
Realistic "Combat" training requires mastering the basics. Not just the basics of marksmanship, but also the basics of fire & maneuver, use of cover, team work, and shooting around barricades.
When we mention "Barricades;" everyone nods and say that they often shoot around barricades if they are on the range; using them for support for longer shots. We even have whole videos on how to shoot around or using barricades; dozens of videos of barricades all over the web.
Most people are missing the point with these barricades... Yes, they are just made out of plywood, and yes, they do have ports for you to shoot through. However, don't just think of them as plywood supports; think of them as two dimensional representations of walls, buildings, and vehicles. These range barricades give you the opportunity to train, in a safe manner, while replicating scenarios and environments that you may someday find yourself in. Gotta do a Reload?... Move behind Cover (using the barricade). Need to practice odd shooting positions? ... Use odd barricades to force yourself to shoot positions that you normally wouldn't shoot from.
There is an old saying: It is better to sweat in Training, than to Bleed in Combat." Make your training as realistic as possible. Make your mistakes here, in the safety of a secure range fan with plywood barricades that will forgive you if you shoot "The Concrete Wall" 6 inches in front of your barrel.
Sorry, we don't add fancy "Pew, Pew Shooting" or "Speed Running Around" set to exciting music... Just long-winded me, and all the voices in my head. I hope you enjoy the video.
Strength & Honor, TR.

Karl’s disgust with pew pew guys is real during this video 😆😂😆😂 definitely have to check out those stands. Looks nicer than just using 2x4s. Thanks guys.
"Just long-winded me, and all the voices in my head." ...,and that is all the sounds and voices we need. Thanks Karl! :)
Thank you for that "rule of thumb" with canted weapons. I have been taught to shoot like that, but always sweated doing the mental math to make it work at distance. That is a lot easier.
Last time I tried “gun yoga” using Zee’s video, the neighbors call the cops to my backyard. I’ve got to get to a range for this one. Thanks Karl
Karl- Not bad for a sweaty, elderly man with bad knees. Top notch video bud. Covered everything from construction through keeping low return fire profiles. Important stuff to navigate because pew pew targets usually don't shoot back. Noticed you also still maintain a high edge SAFE on/off protocol even though you talk more than humanly possible. Outstanding effort young man. *****
Another great video! These unconventional techniques are definitely a valuable tool to keep in my toolbox! Thanks again for all the great information!!🤜🤛🇺🇸🇺🇸
Good sh!t guys. Anyone who does not believe this is practical, has never been in a real fire fight. Thanks TR team!!
A vehicle is not cover.
Another great episode of "Common Sense by Tactical Rifleman"
I like the two rectangular barricades idea, easy to stow in a smaller car.
Even in force-on-force or hell just even airsoft, it's plain to see that you almost have more irregular barricades than conveniently straight up-and-down thresholds. Love how you nailed it on the car's A-post and C-post, great illustration of how angle of engagement changes everything.
Really good info nuggets in this one. Hadn't realized where the 45 degree slots came from but makes sense. Thank you!
Never though about aiming high when horizontal… good call out
Thanks for saying things that the two dozen other barrier instructional videos I've watched did not say. Good stuff!
Glad it was helpful!
A BIG THANK YOU!
Great stuff. Time for a trip to Lowe’s! Thanks Karl!
Good stuff. Thanks Karl. Always enjoyed and thought the old car and barricade videos with Rob were top notch and above anything else on RUclips. This is the real deal.
I'm in the process of building my own range, and really appreciate your input. Thanks
Glad to help
The price on those barricade stands is outrageous. Fortunately they look extremely easy to make.
I made one yesterday! It’s not hard at all with some basic power tools and some time🤙🏻
Aaahhh the coveted TR1 rifle ❤🇺🇲 such a beauty, one day I shall own you! #TacticalRiflemanNation
I love my rifle
Love the no-bull-s***, common sense advice on this channel.
This video is solid gold truth.
I do wish however, for the sake of visual articulation that a way to record the optic/reticule while shooting with the rifle rolled over were possible (as a advanced training aid*)
I am a bodyman 30 yrs and he is spot on on his car barrier knowledge this dude is the real fuckin deal
Shooting around the barriers was the best part of your class sir. On a side note Why didn’t you show Chad’s signature on the back of the one Barrier? 😈 and man that rifle looks sexy
Excellent explanation of the realistic use of barricade training. Something I need to start doing.
Most excellent. No theory. Just Been There, Done That.
Excellent video. Last minutes I was a little distracted cause I was afraid Karl would take a shot from behind the Impala. (Impala+paint+muzzle=havoc) :)
Great stuff! I’ve been really getting into defensive training, thinking about building some barricades for my range but I didn’t exactly know what all I should build. I know simulate real life situations, real life barriers.. But a very good & important point I picked up here is, well what is a real life situation? Behind a barrier with the bad guy(s) out in the open? That’s what we all hope for, but probably not realistic. A real life situation is likely not going to be comfortable, practical, or in your favor. And I’ve picked up that that’s something that isn’t always thought about as much as it should be in my opinion. So when I do build my barriers ive now got a few ideas to implement multiple unique uncomfortable positions, impractical positions, and positions that simply would not be in my favor in a real life situation. And I hope that others will think about doing the same. It’s much better to be prepared and never need it then to be unprepared and need it that one time..
But some good info here! If you ever do something like this again I’d love to see some demonstrations of what you think some real life situations would look like. For example, you walk around a corner and there’s a guy with a gun that appears to be involved in some kind of illegal activity and now your his center of attention. What do you do? Take cover & evaluate the situation? Immediately draw & shoot? Try to talk some sense into him? I think a lot of people could learn from this! Keep up the great work!
As always, excellent instruction and advice from professionals. Thanks guys.
Love these types of videos Karl, this is where you and Tactical Rifleman shine.
thanks brother.. this will surely help with my training! stay safe
Glad to hear it!
You so rock Karl! Thank you for the inspiration!😎👍👍🥇🏅
This channel ROCKS. Great training advice from basics of cover and concealment up to hand to hand techniques and everything in between. Awesome. 😎
Nice demo glad you covered this so many out there don't. Though this is a younger man's game. I'll be the guy hanging back covering the base for your safe return. I'm past the door kicking stage. But I certainly agree with everything you have pointed out here.
I've been going out in the thick forest on my family's property and practicing around trees and branches at various heights. But I've been wanting to build some barricades. Also have a couple broke down cars out on my range on the property I do a lot with. Thanks karl
Also u can practice shooting barricades with airsoft to save on ammo. Another way airsoft can apply to real world training. Shooting positions with rifle
@@tysond1397 take it a step farther and train in games. practice your irregular positions with targets that move and shoot back.
@@50shadesofcerakote I've tried the games but I haven't found a group of kids I can stand being around long enough. But I've done it with my ol lady shooting at me while I try to group on cardboard. With airsoft of course
The good is often the enemy to the best. Nuff said. Great content!
Can just give one like but another bumper on the algorithm. up up. (btw very well done with the RL example and the angle on the Impala.)
Glad you liked it!
Thanks for the breakdown on this! Super helpful!
Felt like i was watching a Nutnfancy video at first... lol j/k great video
That was rude lol
@KIng Daddy Rabbit HaHa Karl has a sense of humor... i hope lol
This is a superb video. Thank you. From vtac fabrication to training points it was exactly the intro primer I was looking for. Thanks so much!!👍👍
Thanks for watching, TR
Karl/TR literally has the best info out there.
Another nice Job Karl, you are a great communicator! Keep safe and shoot straigth 😉 👍
Excellent 👍
Great info!! Well-thought-out explanations, good stuff. Thanks for posting. And ill be going to get some plywood this weekend 👍
He wants to call them out so bad (pew pew guys) lol always great info Karl 🤙🏼🇺🇸
Thanks for your service and the great video.
Great info setting up my tange now i will add this to it thanks for all you do to help people God Bless
As I watch your you tube articles they get
Better and better I am planing on joining you on patreon. I take my firearm training vary serious. THANK YOU
Nice, thanks for the perspectives.
Man, that “gun yoga” part got me.
Badass video thank you for real advice with no bullshit filler!!
Karl your a natural born American ninja Jedi!
May god always be by your side my friend.
Stay happy healthy and fluid
Excellent and informative as usual Karl! Have you ever thought of painting different colors or using numbers around the shapes in the plywood? That way you could help make it a mental training tool as well? So say you have a shooter and a caller. Your objective as the shooter could be to focus on only the numbers the caller shouts out. He says yellow 4, red 2, blue 7, when in reality the plywood is actually pink 4, brown 2, black 7. It could help add a mental aspect to it all as well.
We mark them with tape for certain drills
Karl, another awesome video here, thanks for the tips... things like this slip the mind easy when there are so many things to train on.. People need that good awkward shooting stance training more than they realize... Time to put this back in the regime for a bit.. lol thanks much...
Great Stuff Karl !!! Real world situations~ positions. That's when you get a rental w/ insurance or ask Chad to drive !! LOL !!! Stay Strong and Be Safe !!!
Absolutely awesome knowledge and information! I always learn so much because of the amazing TR TEAM! Love yall take care!
Thank you for your service, Karl's knees.
Great Video I'm making one these barricades thanks..
Have fun!
Awesome stuff. Just built a vtac barrier
💪🏼
Karl putting a blast forwarding device on his rifle is all the excuse I need to get a Surefire warden for my .300 AAC pin&weld
I makes life easier for the students to my left & right while demonstrating drills
I think I found an awesome way to get myself in better shape
Gun Yoga is great exercise
Love this! You guys rock! Keep em coming! Keep me learning and refining.
Old video, one i miss, is the white car for sale an im thinking someone swap wheels cause they cone with twenties and them were fifteen inch wheels, lol good video
Hell yeah thanks Karl
Look at Karl breaking out the big words on us like aerodynamic
Posthole digger 2'foot deep 6"inch schedule 40 pvc pipe use 4×4 wood posts to support barricades eliminate trip obstacles and need to stand on barricades possibly hindering performance
That’s a awesome idea for permanent or even semi-permanent locations. However, besides having to take them to guest ranges for classes, we have found that we like to easily move them around quickly, to change drills and scenarios.
Thanks for watching, TR
@@TacticalRiflemancontemplated in my thought as well still some more effort for a lot more safety, maybe add quick release fat dolly wheels. posthole digger fastest dig deep tool endless uses, I keep post hole digger in zombie patrol truck with farm jack
Good, practical tips. Thanks Karl.
this information is more important than ever given current events.
Dont just look at these barricades as out door barriers but they can be indoor barriers, looking into another room or through another rooms window to outside.
Great video. Thanks for the knowledge
Thank you
So I sometimes agree and disagree with this guys stuff.
This here is gold. I would 100% agree.
Thank you for posting this!
Price if the MGMtarget legs is now $233 a set. Much cheaper to build with wood or PVC.
Great video though and awesome training info.
Thanks for the info! That’s pretty high. I need 3 more, so I might have to try another brand
2 .5 inches high 2 inch windage at 100 yards with 223/ 5.56 non sbr.
Great info for realistic training
Good Stuff! Thanks Karl
Fantastic explanation. Thanks...
Thanks for watching, TR
Great training advice!
Great info, much appreciated!
Excellent video as always dude! Great points!!
Carl you and your team are the best!!!!!! But when are you going to get a marine
We have several marines on our team.
Thanks Karl!!! Great lessons 👍
The TR Commercial Break always gets me lol..Plus the music adds to the laughing. Yeah it doesn't take much for a blonde to laugh 😁
Can’t wait to try this with by red rider.
So much great info thank you and have a safe weekend!
Tee shirt idea: Kraken tactical knife (with TR logo) on the front and on the back should read "I want that to sink in"....😉 good Karlizm👍🇺🇸 great video TR!
AMEN Brother Karl!! There’s NOTHING worse than a “Know it All” that doesn’t really know anything!!! Pew Pew or Compition shooting is NOTHING like Combat…. And I’ll bet any amount of money if anyone can prove that a mortor round / rpg hole in a building is always a perfect square or circle and never elongated horizontally or diagonally!!
Great video
It’s crazy how much advanced shooting from barricades resembles professional paintball
perhaps because paintball has been modeled after the military, or am i wrong?
@@treygrogan13 competitive paintball (google speedball) is really it’s own animal. I’d say it evolved in parallel with these shooting techniques, since there’s not really much if any overlap in practitioner base. But the concept of shoot without getting shot applies to both so I guess it makes sense that the techniques are similar
great stuff!!!!
Gamers on cod: i hate being killed by someone mounting a weapon on something
Tactical Riflemans Karl: hold my paper target
10:00
sounds like a good time to take advantage of a secondary canted optic...?
It’s kind of the same thing if it were on top cause you still need to compensate for the barrel not hitting what’s infront of you.
@@thotlinemiami6627 well, if the optic is canted, you'd zero the canted optic, right? it's just, when you cant your rifle like you're doing here anyway, you bring the other optic into play, and you're good to go.
i guess the angle you have to use would have to be about the same as the canted optic.
Thank you SGM or is it CSM? Great content and instructions for us sillyvillians
SGM
Thanks for watching
Again great training tips. All those weird angles come to play in home defense scenarios as well. I’m not training to go to the sand box, but all the “peaceful riots” tell me I need to be prepared.
Agreed
U know Quality, if ur late and the Video only got likes and not one dislike.😎
I used to think getting off the X would work till I watched Warrior Poet Society do a vid on it. That side step would not stop someone from tracking you
This knowledge is golden. Thank You.
Glad it was helpful!
RUclipss caught onto your commercial work around lol
Looking forward to your Tactical Combat Yoga dvd set 📀 Karl. I’ll wear some Tactical Rifleman yoga pants while I practice it lol
Nice video as always. edit- was going to ask about the optic but see below it's a Sig you are testing out...
Best content as always.
