Now this is going to get interesting

I have walked many a gun show floor and walked by the booths that had all of the assemble and disassemble books.   Those are useful, but at many times very hard to read.   Little arrows and pictures can still make it hard to comprehend.   Along comes the VHS and DVD world and AGI has done a good job on this.   I’m also a very big fan of Clint Smith and his DVD collection although pretty expensive really turns out to be worth the money spent.   For the most part they are well produced, but a few spotty parts should have been re-shot.

Panteao Productions has there shit together.  I just saw a glimpse of the next in line, Travis Haley, who recently left Magpul, and started Haley Strategic Partners, is working with Panteao Productions to release “Adaptive Carbine” his first production since leaving Magpul.  Travis is kinda the rockstar of the gun DVDs.  The production on the Magpul Dynamics DVD series are outstanding.  I’ve only been able to watch the Make Ready Series a few times, but I haven’t been let down.  If I pick all of the best firearm instructors I know,  I’m betting there all on the schedule with Panteao Productions.

Firearm training and DVD instructional video just broader

I have a great many gun dvd’s in my collection and they are mostly of value, but I did have a few that I lent to a friend for comical reasons, but unfortunately they got lost and there’s no way in hell I’ll spend the money for another batch of them.    Now that DVD editing has gotten better and easier to do, more firearms trainers are taking to the camera eye.   There are several people that I would love to train with, but like many people I can’t take 3 days off from my day job.  I subscribed to the Outdoor Channel over a year ago, but sadly most of the shows I watch are producing so few shows that I’ve already seen the same ones 4 or 5 times and I’m itching for something a little more complicated.

We just got word that Travis Haley just got done shooting “Adaptive Carbine” training course and will be out in a few months.    Considering the names that I am seeing on the Make Ready gun dvds,  I’m sure that Fernando Coelho knows the people to get in front of the camera and how to sell a DVD.   I think all of these DVD’s are a great thing because the production is so well done and gun owners will have easy access to important tactics and safe gun handling skills.   I think there are too many people out there that own AR15 rifles that don’t know the proper ways to maintain or handle them.

No time for training? Order some DVDs

There is going to be a huge flood of firearm training DVD’s coming out this Spring, we just got word that Fernando Coelho has just launched Panteao Productions and will coming with an incredible list of firearm instructor training DVD’s.   Everything from IDPA shooting, Carbine training, handgun shooting skills, 1911 armorer, AR15 armorer and the list goes on and on.   Make Ready with Dave Harrington, Bob Vogel, Dean Caputo.   I have been invited to sit on or train with many firearm instructors, but haven’t been able to fit it into my schedule.   As a business owner, trying to get away and take a 3 day course is virtually impossible.

I’m sure I sound familiar because finding good training is hard, trying to find the time and the money is even harder.   We all can search the internet and find out who the best referred to teachers are, but now there are Top Tier trainers making DVD’s for under $40.   You can’t beat that! Can we also inform you if you didn’t already know that Bob Vogel has won the IDPA National Competition yet again?  I’m sure that Make  Ready DVD with Bob Vogel will be one of the top sellers.  Bill Jeans shotgun operator course is another area that will be filled because shotgun training is taught probable 1/10 of the time as handgun and carbine.
