How about a training pictures thread?

[Shay]

People like posting pictures of guns and gear. How about some pictures from training.

I'll post some of mine when I get a chance.

 

[Barry in IN]

I guess the only pictures I have are from a Yavapai Firearms Academy (Louis Awerbuck) Stage 1 Pistol class...three years ago.

Here is his infamous Mirage target. He controls two of the figures via ropes, so they slide back and forth and bob on springs. I think the "bad guy" target for us was the guy in the left rear.

View over a student's shoulder (not me):

Louis barking at me as I try to shoot the thing:

That is a really cool shot of the AK. And nice pics Barry!

Here's me at Thunder Ranch, Tejas, at General Purpose Rifle. I'm on the far right (of course) in the dark blue t-shirt, leaning up against the railing in a tactical manner.

Gotta be a member to view

Hah!

Figured it out (finally).

<---- Thinks we need to convince Pami she wants to visit a lot of the various Training sessions Shay and others put on. She can shoot her Canon, and provide some good publicity shots

Of course this would require the instructor wanting to allow a photographer there..... and a fair amount of safety stressed. I am hoping the INGO training event in June will allow Pami to come and take at least a few photos.

 

[Pami]

Have camera, will travel.
And yes, safety and instructor/participant willingness would be my top two concerns.

Find the image on your desktop. Go to ImageShack® - Image Hosting . Host the picture there. Click on this icon

and paste the url. That is what has worked for me.

Really? Darn, sorry, Fen.

How do I copy the picture thingy and post it in the reply thingy here??? (Yes, I am a technotard, that's why I hire Purdue students).

They *were* fun! I've been fortunate in that I haven't yet taken a "bad" class. It pays to be discriminating and do some homework on the front end when choosing how to spend your training dollar.

Nice Tarani pic BTW.

I've got better ones; he used me as his "meat puppet" for a Karambit demo during lunch on the second day. "Wow" is all I gotta say about that.

shooter if you get the chance it would be great if you could post a review of that AK class in a new thread here in the training forum! Nice Pics!
