I appreciate you taking on the practical application of the gun safety rules which have been taken out of context for years, like muzzle control/sweeping. A suggested topic is covering what to expect when taking a class with hot range rules vice cold range.
In person is better. Have been reading his writing and watching his videos for years. 3 days, 8 hours a day along with his vetted and experienced cadre fuses all of the knowledge you pick up online. I had some bad habits that were pointed out and I was able to start correcting. That isn't possible to get outside of in person instruction.
I think that it's really cool that you are putting your class content online, I wish more instructors would do this. Putting it out in the world invites people to challenge it and I think that is a benefit for everyone.
Challenges are great as long as they come from qualified people. Qualified = been in a gunfight by themselves against dudes who were trying to kill them. Not just once...multiple times. Having taken classes, been a cop, been in the military, or worse, been a champion sport shooter does not make anyone qualified to challenge anything. Just saying.
I agree with the premise, especially that line in the description about "Safety is a human construct." I will have to think on that awhile, that's a really interesting idea. I do think the analysis of Rules could be improved. Creating rules that use absolutes is really tricky and should be avoided because you will nearly always find a common scenario where that absolute will be violated. Treating all guns as if they are loaded is impossible. When I disassemble my glock, I will pull the trigger. I can't treat it as if it is loaded if I am going to pull the trigger and expect it to not discharge.
Another great video! Slightly off topic, but I'm curious about your opinion on the role of fighting knives. Do you recommend carrying one as a backup for a pistol? If so, what is the ideal size and type of blade?
2:34: "This is for killing." No it is for **stopping** a threat. Any death is incidental. In a self defense situation, NEVER tell the cops your intent was to "kill," because that word WILL be used against you in court. Your intent was to STOP the threat.

Gabe, you have been putting out a lot of excellent videos. Please keep them coming.

@@supertruckertom I would love to train with Gabe. It’s mostly a matter of working out the geography.
A treat to see this every now & then...

Sharing this with friends who really have a need for this common sense knowledge. Thanks for getting it back out there.

Great video, looking forward to seeing more.
I'm looking forward to the video on how to handle the 'what's behind your target' situations.
@@onpsxmember Ok...in the works
It will be on Patreon. I need to get paid just like Mike Tyson. 😊

If you give a better show, then it's fair.
Let me know when you add it.
@@onpsxmember Better show than what? It will be up in a week or so.

Tyson.
Good stuff. Thank you.

CRG = phone booth distance , ECRG = bad breath distance as El Jefe used to say .....
👍👍
Is this the same guy from back in my Dog Brothers days?
Yup
@@suareztactics Those were fun times. Painful, but fun.

And like I say to all the Liabity Fear Mongers...SHOW ME THE CASE WHERE THAT WAS AN ISSUE IN AND OF ITSELF.
A case number and court will suffice.
