‘ When attending a training class do yourself and your classmates a big favor; use electronic hearing protection. This allows you to actually listen to what the instructor is saying without having to constantly ask those around you on the firing line who happen to be wearing electronic ear pro.
Bottomline is if you own a smartphone then you have no excuse to not own electronic hearing protection . Enough said.’

‘One thing that I want to stress is that the K.I.S.S. principle is alive and well – complexity is the enemy in a life or death situation. Complexity can be overcome with quality training and repetition implanting the complex task into the subconscious mind. If that is not feasible for you in your given situation then fall back to the tried and true method of keeping things simple; meaning adhering to the K.I.S.S. principle religiously. It has worked for many years and it can work for you.’

‘When you get the chance learn how to operate different small arms; everyone in a serious line of work should know how to run common weapons like the AK, FAL, G3, and M14. In addition understand how to handle pistols like the TT 33, P38, CZ 75, Makarov, and others. Just simply knowing how to unload and clear these weapons or even disable them is a skill set that may come in handy in some remote corner of the world, or even the USA.’

I received this not from Larry Vickers this morning.
I am giving every NRA member who can show me proof of membership during any of my classes in 2013 $20 cash back on the spot – if someone isn’t a member they can join the evening of the first day, show me proof on day two, and I’ll give them $20 back
At that rate the yearly membership only costs the individual $15 or $1.25 a month
Just another way I am trying to get people engaged in the fight of our lives.

“My Gunfighter moment this week is real simple; support the NRA. I simply can’t say that enough – upgrade your membership, rejoin, recruit a new member, do something to get involved.
The NRA isn’t perfect but I can tell you from personal experience the only thing that gives the 2nd Amendment any meaning at all is the 4 million members of the National Rifle Association. I have traveled the globe in my firearms career and been exposed to the gun cultures of other countries; they all to a man wish they had something as powerful as the NRA. Every single time I hear the same comment.
Right now more than ever we need everyone who enjoys the firearms freedoms we have engaged in the fight. The anti gunners are using the Sandy Hook tragedy as the golden opportunity they have been waiting for to go all in on killing the 2nd Amendment . Remember they don’t want you to be able to own firearms – period! There is no compromising with extremists as they are not rational – therefore we have to fight them tooth and nail to preserve our freedoms. And that fight is now !!
Stay vigilant – stay engaged – stay in the fight !! And support the NRA !!”
