The TAG, LLC Progressive Pistolcraft course (or PRP) is June 3-5, near Houston, MO.
I know ammo is high, but so is the cost of being unprepared. So is the value of your life, and the lives of those who depend on you.
You have to strike steel to stone to get an edge. Every day you don't work on your skills they perish. Inch by inch, minute by minute.
Your CCW class was designed by the State's lawyers. The PRP course was designed by shooters specializing in personal protection. |

Part III of III State Gun Laws State gun laws vary considerably. Some states have many more firearms restrictions than others. Some gun owners who visit other states will be granted reciprocity and recognition for any"right to carry" gun laws they had in their home state. Not all states grant such rights. "Right to carry" laws are federal and state constitution provisions that recognize a gun owner's right to use her or his gun for defensive purposes. Some states give gun owners more rights than others. |

Part II Choosing a CCW Weapon The choice of a good CCW firearm is ultimately a personal concern and based on your abilities. Some people prefer the simplicity of a good revolver, but the thickness of even a .38 caliber can make it harder to conceal. Semi automatics are slimmer to a degree and often easier to hide on your body, but require a bit more training and familiarity depending on the exact make and model. Most firearms easy to conceal will be smaller with shorter barrels and lighter weights. |

Carrying a concealed firearm for person defense is a serious decision requiring a good deal of confidence in your personal abilities. It is a responsibility not only under the law but to yourself and those you would protect. It can permanently change how you dress, how you interact with others, and the standards for your behavior and decision making. Regardless of your personal reasons for deciding to carry a firearm you will want to trust that it is a reliable and accurate weapon, and that you know what your abilities are to safely and effectively defend yourself with it. |

Testing Heckler and Koch's this week and some next week. P30's, HK45, HK45C, P2000, and even a couple of USPs. I have shot HK's for many years and always had a love/dislike/fascination/regret cycle of reactions to them. That said I absolutely love the MP5 and carried one for years as an SRT and PST HRP dude. I’ve somehow almost always had at least one since the P7M8 was the exotic 'must have' gun. Come to think of it, the old Staple gun is still a cool piece. |

TAG Blog 2-27-2013 10 is safer than 11 Logical persons know behavior cannot be legislated. We have laws against speeding, we all break them and sometimes these violations result in death. But, there has been no law requiring speed governors on automobiles. Still, some politicians think 10 bullets are safer than 11. or worse - that such asnine feel-good legislation will do anything to curb horrific violence. Of course you know, bad guys not guns are the problem. You should also know that those who wish to limit your protections under the 2nd Amendment are doing so because they fear you. |

"What at this point does it matter?" 1-28-2013 Really, Madam Secretary, really? I am reminded of the Lion King scene.
The Lion Prince having abandoned his role of responsibility says, "I don't worry about the past."
Then the wise Shaman monkey smacks the Lion Prince on the head with a stick.
When the Lion says, "Hey! Ow! That hurts!"
The Shaman monkey says, "Don't worry about it, it's in the past! |

So, what to wear when taking my family to see Sky Fall? My 1970's era German Walther PPK/S of course! This is my personal copy. I also have an Interarms stainless. Now before anyone hollers, I have always carried concealed where legal, even movies, pre-Aurora. Certainly should some nut go off in a theater, as was recently stopped in Springfield, MO, I want to be ready to protect those I love. But back to the Bond gun. Polizei Pistole Kriminal (PPK) was early considered a cops gun. |

Never, never, ever, fire a warning shot into the air. If the situation demands lethal force then so be it, but if the terrible totality and absolute finality of employing deadly force against another human being isn't justified – then a warning shot sure as heck isn't. See Rule 3 and also Rule 4. If you aren't sure what Rule 3 or 4 are – put away the gun and immediately contact us at TAG, LLC for further education and training! In our distant past when the thinking was different, we learned that warning shots just don’t work. |

There is still room in the Precision Marksman Observer Course 24-28 October 2012 near Houston, MO!
This is where you go when you're 'pretty good' to become VERY GOOD. Remember no matter how good a shooter you are, even Tiger Woods has a golf swing coach. This is the class where you learn about every tick and notch on that scope you bought. When you want to know, “How do I grow the confidence to shoot at any range?” “How can I rapidly switch from 100 to 450 yards with my rifle? |
