AMEN BROTHER!!! For some unknown, well unknown TO ME when I hear/watch Mr. CT I can understand, visualize exactly what it (Lesson) is that Mr. CT is trying to convey and teach. I can then immediately work through, or mimic the lesson that is being put forth and I can even identify, for the most part where I am going wrong or what I am doing wrong and then work to correct my problem in order to practice, and hopefully instill the correct way through practice, live and dry fire in order to make it rote/embedded/memorized and automatic in my brain. I have watched and listened to other "Experts" in their field of __??? (Which they are experts at their craft" and have to constantly go back over and over to try and figure out what they are trying to point out. Why? Well because a lot of these experts aren't very good teachers, as in they can't get a message, or "Teach" a lesson to other people without a high degree of confusion or being repetitive BUT I understand and know what Mr. Mick here is teaching and on the first time I DO KNOW that there is nothing in a video that equals a hands on, face to face lesson but there is nothing worse than a lesson that is kept a secret and/or never even heard. I wish to hell that I could get a hands on, face to face class with Mr. Carry Trainer but I am a 62 year old man that haven't been able to run since my first of 5 total hip replacement surgeries at the age of 29 and a 62 year old man that is coming off of his first, and hopefully last/only battle with cancer that was diagnosed on June 6th 2023. With all of this being said I am far from the average 62 year old as anyone can be. I am/was spry, flexible, in good shape and as most people that know me say "Ornery as fuck" that was 6' 1" and 185 Lbs before June of 2023 and now down to 6' to 5' 11" and 140 Lbs and trying like hell to work my way back to at least 170 Lbs .... This "Non-Running" has always been and always will be the big reason that I never took a hands on, face to face class with any trainer as the few trainers that I did contact would say that I HAVE to be able to RUN as I may possibly hold the rest of the class back with my slow pace of moving and I CONCUR and 100% FULLY AGREE with these thoughts from trainers so I thought well hell, I will just be cannon fodder and a delay mechanism for the innocent people that I care about protecting that are either with me or in my vicinity Mr. Mick, please "Keep on keeping on" for the sad sack people such as myself and please do so without paying any attention to the "Non Teacher Experts" and I KNOW this is a hard thing to do but keep your head high and push through the BS from all of the so called experts and also please realize that you ARE helpful in keeping at least one person informed as much as possible and that one, sure person that you help immensely is ME!
I think it’s more impressive that you came from a NON-LEO/NON-Military background and still do what you do. You inspire many regular guys like me to train harder and to push ourselves to better for our families. Keep up your amazing work Mick. Hope to see you in a class again soon!
I'll be blunt. I'm an old man and yes, I was soldier and a cop. But that was long ago. Things change and training today has expanded and intensified to levels far advanced from "Back in the day.". And I'm well aware that one should always be learning. My number one source for information and positive demonstration is right here. Micky has his stuff wrapped tight, and delivers excellent insights and training that this old man is grateful to receive. 👍
You are 100% right. Tear others down to build yourself up is nothing but pure egotistical selfishness and has no place in training or influencing others.
They’re jealous and have ego problems. They wish they had your personality and blessed to have god given fans. Thanks for content bro. I’m a Hispanic American from AZ and never done any of that but I learn from you and we are why America will never be conquered and our neighbors are safe. Superman can’t be everywhere all the time but we can.
As former law-enforcement, who has also trained in all kinds of things for over 40 years. I'm gonna tell you right now that first off none of the guys that tell you they are invincible are invincible or they wouldn't get shot up all the time which they clearly do just look around at vets. That's war guys and remember half the ones that take them down they aren't anything special. Violence isn't simple like that. It's not a football game. They want to tell you that because they're selling you something...don't listen to it. Look at how many these supposed elite heroes have been exposed for possibly fabricating a lot of what they claim to have done. Were they smokeless fire guys. Be careful who you follow. This channel is solid. I've never seen one tactic here.
Mick you're as sold as the Master grip you have taught so many of us. You're Teachings will always be what i rely on moving forward. I wish you and your Family the best 🙏
Dude! I’ve learned tons from your channel. I’ve improved drastically over the past several years by practicing the basics, both firearm handling and especially…safety.
100% with you! Your background and credentials don’t mean 💩 Only your performance on demand today counts. Nothing but love and admiration from me to you 👊🏼
Hell yeah. Been listening to your thoughts since I fisrt got into the idea of firearms training and taking responsibility for leading and protecting my own family. Keep it up. Thanks for being here.
Hey Lucas Bodkin (T Rex Arms) has no military or LEO background and I dare any spec ops or swat team dude to outshoot him! I was airborne infantry, and I know I can't shoot like him, or for that matter, you Mickey! So you non-LEO/military guys keep on keeping on! I appreciate your knowledge and no-nonsense style and directness!
As an active member serving in the South African Police Service I have learned a lot from you. As stated you teaching marksmanship and in my humble opinion you rank amongst the best in the world. Keep it up Sir. Love your content.
I took your pistol training course a couple years ago here in Michigan and I thought it was the best thing I ever did. We all know you are awesome! I've told many people about you and your trainings and I hope to take another training with you as soon as it is possible. And just for anyone that might be reading this that doesn't know you, you gave me a lot of personal attention and even called me after the training event to touch base with me. To me this shows character and a real desire to help others!
You provide and deliver a superb product to the people that need training. You have proven that you are not entitled and liberal, but have the life saving discipline to teach others. America's Founding Fathers are looking down from Heaven with Joyous Discipline and Gratification from the work they help create.
Retire Marine here. Never even cared about your former profession. I stumbled across your videos and have been impressed by the information and instruction techniques. Please keep teaching. Semper Fi
I’m retired law enforcement, 34 years of service for one of the largest agencies in the US and SoCal. I spent half of my career assigned to recruit training, advanced officer training, and use of force, defensive tactics training. We utilized outside training sources and non law enforcement persons frequently, who demonstrated or met the requirements of state mandates. There are lots of egos in LE and Military. Let it go and move on. Don’t waste your time with haters.
Mad respect for professionals who serve, but the best officers seek training beyond the bare minimum for their department. And that training MANY times comes from civilians like you. Their profession is to protect and serve, your profession is to teach those skills. Never change man!
Best officers actually know and follow the law and respect and adhere to the constitution above all laws as their oath says. They are men of their word. Not tyrants.
Wow I'm bummed. Not only have I learned an incredible amount of knowledge and tips, but you've also turned me on to Super Vel and also your lubes. I even get HANDWRITTEN thank you notes with my orders! You're an awesome individual and I cherish the time you've invested into these videos.
Like I have said before brother, you are one of the best instructors I have ever known. You are up there with guys like instructor Zee, tactical rifleman and many more who were operators. Yes they have more tactical knowledge, instructors can't teach that knowledge to civilians anyways. I have learned the bulk of what I know today by watching your videos and theirs, and taking classes with whoever I can afford to. Keep up the great work and may God continue to use you and help you train and help so many great and good people!
You’re so important in this industry men you don’t even know… I have learned from U not only better skills with my firearm but been a better person as well… you are needed indeed
Out of all of your videos that I watched, the one that made most impact on me where you explained why you started teaching in the first place. I hope it’s still real for you today, as it was years ago. Doing nothing teaches people to do nothing. I can defend myself because of people like you. In our free country everyone can say anything they want, but matters more what we say to ourselves.
Keep at it!!! Ive been trying for awhile now to schedule one of your classes!!! I am non LEO/military, so I would rather learn from someone that lives "my life". NO disrespect, just different training mindsets! Im a pretty close neighbor, but hell of a work/life schedule. I will make it eventually!
F the haters, M! I've gained so much knowledge and I'm eternally grateful for your content. Don't give in and don't give up. You of all people know that haters gonna hate.
Mick I think you're the Bee's Knee's when it comes to teaching, demonstrating and explaining firearm self defense fundamentals to us civilians. I've watched, listened to and practiced a lot of the drills you present in your video's! Your subject commentary is always thought provoking and awareness heightening. I plan to continue following you as I have because I'm always open to learning. I trust you're opinions, advise and instruction. Don't let "the professionals" belittle you...Rock on my friend! Stay safe! 😉
I think you do a great job at explaining things in detal so anyone can understand. I've picked up a lot from just watching your videos Mickey. Your video on Pistol draw and return to holster is the best instruction I've seen on the subject. It helped me in learning to utilize my natural body mechanics and become much more proficient with my handgun. Seriously under rated video. You sell out your classes and have all kinds of people that not only support you, but truely appreciate what you have to offer. That is testomony enough that you're doing something right. Don't worry about what eletist dicks have to say about being a citizen and keep doing what you love and have a passion for. We would have never won our independence from England if only those with prior Military service were allowed to instruct or use firearms.
I learned a lot from your channel. My shooting has improved considerably. I also feel more comfortable and confident carrying full time. Keep up the good work.
Opinions vary, I think you are one of the best, you show your shots and they are well placed, no editing and no BS. If that guy was right, I wouldn't watch your videos. Your content is perfect for me, if I wasn't on the left cost, I would like to train in person.
Can't believe what i just saw. Real sorry for what transpired. i have been watching your videos for some time now and have learned allot . Have recommended to some that are concerned about their training. Hope to stay in touch. Thank You for what you do. Bless you and your family
Micky you are the best trainer in the Gun Culture. We can only wish there were more outstanding individuals like yourself in the firearms community. Everyone who knows about you they know your next level and very squared away. Never forget that sir, ya scared me with that thumbnail you😂 Take care Micky ML&R always 👊🏼
Damn… My cousin lives in Naperville, which I believe is nearby you… He said the anti-gun loons are out of control in Illinois & said this day would come. Serious🙏🏻⬆️🇺🇸
I protected my wife and unborn son from a group of would-be attackers when they had us surrounded one night. They were all bigger than me but I was the one with a .45. Nobody got hurt that night, luckily. I had been trained with a M-16 but never with a pistol. Ever since then, I've heard people say one shouldn't carry without training. I've had considerable training since then, but I'd never tell somebody responsible to go unarmed because they haven't been trained. Fact is I'll never be "highly trained" or in fine fighting shape, I just make do with what I've got. "Pros" forget about this sometimes.
Thanks mickey for everything u have taught me a lot from drawing shooting and even upgrading my sight step by step all with a personality i feel like i grew up with
Preach, brother. I respect a ton of former operators, but we are also living in an age of brands and platforms and the knife fight for viewers and likes. Ex-ops and cops looking to build a brand are everywhere now. Your experience is hard earned and rep refined. You are as knowledgeable and rigorous on the firing range as anyone I’ve seen. Proof’s in the pudding, Mickey and your continued success with your classes and channel say it all. See you in Oklahoma, and later in Tennessee, brother. Stay strong, stay free!
Truth! I won't call out who but one of the crazy elite tuber's once said " It's not about aiming in a gunfight it's who gets the first round off" I've never watched that guy again.
Why would anyone need to draw and rack the slide if they are properly prepared? Israeli carry is not taught in CCW courses. Moreover, 1.57 seconds isn't his best time. I've seen people draw and place a shot on target in under 0.90 seconds. My fastest time is 1.10 seconds from an IWB holster using a full-size pistol. What's most important is a fast draw combined with a slow trigger press, because the real measure of success is whether you can place the shot where you intended to hit.
He said that right man if you can’t stand up for yourself, no one will and then nowadays it’s only gonna get worse and worse and worse so take care and stand up and make sure you’re not a statistic😊
I love your channel, and look forward to all the knowledge you share. I've learned a lot from your videos over the years, and put what you teach into my everyday training. As they say "haters are going to hate". Let them hate, block them out, and keep up the good work.
Mickey, As someone who has watched many, many of your instructional and entertaining videos, and as someone who has taken multiple classes that you offer and instruct. I will say that you are VERY, very good at instructing and teaching people. You’re classes are caring, extremely safe, and beneficial. I’ve seen you instruct LEOs and civilians from all walks of life. Please keep doing what you are doing, sir. Well, with the exception of the exotic dance. Give it up dude. 😂 Sincerely, Jeff
Dude I have learned a shit ton of valuable info from you. Thank you for what you do. Keep it coming. Gracias.
DITTO!

If your firearm teaching skills are as good as your exotic dance teaching skills then you're fine.
😅😅😅😅😅😅😅😅
Hopefully not too exotic
Respect +10
Excellent upload. Glad to hear you defending that philosophy.
I'll be blunt. I'm an old man and yes, I was soldier and a cop. But that was long ago. Things change and training today has expanded and intensified to levels far advanced from "Back in the day.".

You are the MAN! You're instructional vids are clear and concise w/an emphasis on safety. Thank you Sir!!
Perspective and Balance are your greatest strengths . RAGE ON! You are a great teacher!
Exotic dancing was a nice touch!! As always sir, love all your doing! One of the best

Plenty of dudes can outshoot Lucas's or me. I have a friends list full of them. That said, I appreciate the vote of confidence. I appreciate you.
As an active member serving in the South African Police Service I have learned a lot from you.

@@BeefNEggs057 totally agree. My comment was geared towards firearm proficiency, since that was what the subject of the video was.
Wow I'm bummed. Not only have I learned an incredible amount of knowledge and tips, but you've also turned me on to Super Vel and also your lubes. I even get HANDWRITTEN thank you notes with my orders!
You're an awesome individual and I cherish the time you've invested into these videos.
While I have not had the opportunity to attend any of your classes. I have learned alot from your videos. So just keep doing what you do.
You are a wonderful asset and I am thankful for your time and effort to help others. Thank you.
You’re doing the Lord’s work.
I've learned so much from your videos! Sad to hear this. Ive Got mad respect for everything you've done! Thank you!
Your training & videos are much appreciated. God bless🙏🏼
You are one of the Best at what you do! Thank you!
I'm with ya!!! I'm done tying my shoes after today, Velcro all the way!! 👍
Hahaha

Mickey, I'm with you! Thank you for all you do and for everything I've learned from you!
I just subscribed. Excellent words of wisdom.
I've learned more from you than anyone, ty for what you do
LOL, good shit right here. I agree with you, brotha.
i’ve learned a lot from you thanks a bunch please keep it up
You’re so important in this industry men you don’t even know… I have learned from U not only better skills with my firearm but been a better person as well… you are needed indeed
You are the reason I got into firearms instructing. Keep it up friendly greetings From South Africa.
You're much better than basic. You go on and beyond. Keep doing what you're doing. Ive learned a ton from your videos.
Out of all of your videos that I watched, the one that made most impact on me where you explained why you started teaching in the first place. I hope it’s still real for you today, as it was years ago. Doing nothing teaches people to do nothing. I can defend myself because of people like you. In our free country everyone can say anything they want, but matters more what we say to ourselves.
Don't worry about it. Keep moving forward. You're one of the best out there, not just teaching-wise but philosophy-wise too.
Keep at it!!! Ive been trying for awhile now to schedule one of your classes!!! I am non LEO/military, so I would rather learn from someone that lives "my life". NO disrespect, just different training mindsets! Im a pretty close neighbor, but hell of a work/life schedule. I will make it eventually!
“…Leetle baby peepee” 🤣🤣🤣
I train all the time and learn what i know from what you all teach online and off
I’ve learned more from outside sources than in house ones. Keep it up.
Learned a lot from you bro, one of my fav vids from you were on vehicle prep for the fam.
F the haters, M! I've gained so much knowledge and I'm eternally grateful for your content. Don't give in and don't give up. You of all people know that haters gonna hate.
Micky!! Thanks for your teaching and amen to what you said in the video.
I've learnt far more from you than any other courses I've done locally. Please don't stop doing what you are doing. Much love from South Africa
Mick I think you're the Bee's Knee's when it comes to teaching, demonstrating and explaining firearm self defense fundamentals to us civilians. I've watched, listened to and practiced a lot of the drills you present in your video's! Your subject commentary is always thought provoking and awareness heightening. I plan to continue following you as I have because I'm always open to learning. I trust you're opinions, advise and instruction. Don't let "the professionals" belittle you...Rock on my friend! Stay safe! 😉
I think you do a great job at explaining things in detal so anyone can understand. I've picked up a lot from just watching your videos Mickey. Your video on Pistol draw and return to holster is the best instruction I've seen on the subject. It helped me in learning to utilize my natural body mechanics and become much more proficient with my handgun. Seriously under rated video.
You sell out your classes and have all kinds of people that not only support you, but truely appreciate what you have to offer. That is testomony enough that you're doing something right. Don't worry about what eletist dicks have to say about being a citizen and keep doing what you love and have a passion for. We would have never won our independence from England if only those with prior Military service were allowed to instruct or use firearms.
Well said .....Amen
That sounds like you anyone man,you are a gift to the 2A community!
It is pure envy, keep up the good work brother 💪💪👍👍
I just started rifle training properly because of one of your videos. Thank you!
Because of you, I’m gonna start training people. Thanks Mick for your hard work and inspiration! Oh and training me.
As a former CSO, I've learned more as a civilian from this guy's *free* content, than all of my time in the cervix
Keep doing your thing brother. You inspire the rest of us to do good as well.
I learned a lot from your channel. My shooting has improved considerably. I also feel more comfortable and confident carrying full time. Keep up the good work.
Keep on truckin'... thank you sir, you taught me consistency and perseverance.
Opinions vary, I think you are one of the best, you show your shots and they are well placed, no editing and no BS. If that guy was right, I wouldn't watch your videos. Your content is perfect for me, if I wasn't on the left cost, I would like to train in person.
Can't believe what i just saw. Real sorry for what transpired. i have been watching your videos for some time now and have learned allot . Have recommended to some that are concerned about their training. Hope to stay in touch. Thank You for what you do. Bless you and your family
Micky you are the best trainer in the Gun Culture. We can only wish there were more outstanding individuals like yourself in the firearms community. Everyone who knows about you they know your next level and very squared away. Never forget that sir, ya scared me with that thumbnail you😂 Take care Micky ML&R always 👊🏼
I agree with you. As a firearms instructor myself, I’ve been looked down on by law enforcement and ex military guys for the same reason.
Amen Sir 👏👏👏. I know I can count on you to always be honest, sincere and informative 👍🇺🇸
Damn… My cousin lives in Naperville, which I believe is nearby you… He said the anti-gun loons are out of control in Illinois & said this day would come.
Serious🙏🏻⬆️🇺🇸

If you training getting better everyday your gonna be higher trained than your opponent, but never say never
You're one of my favorite instructors!
I've learned so much from you Brother. Thank you.
Thanks mickey for everything u have taught me a lot from drawing shooting and even upgrading my sight step by step all with a personality i feel like i grew up with
Well said. No one is more important than yourself and your family. Train on
Preach, brother. I respect a ton of former operators, but we are also living in an age of brands and platforms and the knife fight for viewers and likes. Ex-ops and cops looking to build a brand are everywhere now. Your experience is hard earned and rep refined. You are as knowledgeable and rigorous on the firing range as anyone I’ve seen. Proof’s in the pudding, Mickey and your continued success with your classes and channel say it all. See you in Oklahoma, and later in Tennessee, brother. Stay strong, stay free!
The message is always more important then the messenger. Truly grateful for the time and energy you and your team put into the channel .
I learned, I taught and I teach , and I keep learning here and there. YOU ROCK! As simple as that! You are the best one !
Keep doing what you’re doing brotha!!
Thanks! Will do!
I have learned alot form you and all your videos. Thanks
Truth! I won't call out who but one of the crazy elite tuber's once said " It's not about aiming in a gunfight it's who gets the first round off" I've never watched that guy again.
I have always liked your content.❤
This is a man with a 1.57 second IWB appendix draw, racking the slide, and getting a shot on target man.

If you're not trained you can fight tyrannical powers. A 1.57 iwb appendix draw, racking the slide, is a threat to the puppeteers
Why would anyone need to draw and rack the slide if they are properly prepared? Israeli carry is not taught in CCW courses. Moreover, 1.57 seconds isn't his best time. I've seen people draw and place a shot on target in under 0.90 seconds. My fastest time is 1.10 seconds from an IWB holster using a full-size pistol. What's most important is a fast draw combined with a slow trigger press, because the real measure of success is whether you can place the shot where you intended to hit.
@@private8559 It's not about your fastest time, its about a time in which you can consistently hit the target where you're aiming.
@private8559 why does the trigger press need to be slow? Can't we just hold the gun correctly and get hits?
He said that right man if you can’t stand up for yourself, no one will and then nowadays it’s only gonna get worse and worse and worse so take care and stand up and make sure you’re not a statistic😊

Rifles Only; not a a veteran ... but the best rifle instructor ... ever.
I love your channel, and look forward to all the knowledge you share. I've learned a lot from your videos over the years, and put what you teach into my everyday training. As they say "haters are going to hate". Let them hate, block them out, and keep up the good work.
Your so correct
Mickey,
As someone who has watched many, many of your instructional and entertaining videos, and as someone who has taken multiple classes that you offer and instruct. I will say that you are VERY, very good at instructing and teaching people. You’re classes are caring, extremely safe, and beneficial. I’ve seen you instruct LEOs and civilians from all walks of life. Please keep doing what you are doing, sir. Well, with the exception of the exotic dance. Give it up dude. 😂
Sincerely,
Jeff
