Rock & Roll Shooting - Tactical Response HRCC courses

[HolmlundSWE]

Västerbotten, Sweden. Not many know where that is so ill just say Nordic part of Sweden. I myself have never been to America and I'm curious where that is. Looks a lot like some places near here. Is it up north?

[bryanferreira]

@HolmlundSWE , ahahah!! It's Tennesse. You should go and do some classes, you would have lot's of fun and it would be a very good learning experience

[awarhg]

what song is it?

[bf2lover42]

@awarhg Foo Fighters - All My Life

[TheKlassyKarrotKid]

Definately an RPK

[TheSillmatic]

2:02 shells casing hits camera. Get some.

[shootload1911]

C.Q.B. ALL DAY BABY!!!! GET SOME!

[mocatz187]

I love how banged up that RPK is. It gives it character.

[EstavanCruz]

Who the hell could dislike this video-oh yeah, democrats and terrorists, communists, socialists, and bad guys. Folks like this will survive, and you had better hope they are your friends.

[mastertracuer]

Not gonna lie, 0:39 I jizzed a little...

[TheGhillieMan95]

The AK is so sexy

[secretpolice]

What the hell man, howd they get that RPK... :(

[bryanferreira]

@secretpolice , like everybody else that can have class III firearms

[secretpolice]

@bryanferreira So one you're qualified for class 3, Could you buy the class3 weapons as is or would you have to convert it to fire fully auto?

[bryanferreira]

@secretpolice , you can do both

[secretpolice]

@bryanferreira Nice ok so it doesnt have to be post ban awesome.

[jones21290]

@bryanferreira I think being a corporation, they have a little less trouble getting hold of ClassIIIs. Could very well be wrong, maybe they have a builder's license, either way, I doubt they're paying full prices.

[wugrut]

@secretpolice Not a big deal unless your state is "Liberal"

[lawrenceholmes]

@bryanferreira is just a ak 47 but on a stand

[bryanferreira]

@lawrenceholmes , What??

[wreckitrich]

@bryanferreira It's hard to tell if it's an RPK or an AKM on a bi-pod. The only real difference between the two is that an RPK has a longer, heavier barrel than an AK.

[bryanferreira]

@wreckitrich , It´s an RPK

[bf2lover42]

@wreckitrich It has the clubfoot stock, and I don't see any reason to put one in a standard AK pattern rifle.

Plus, the RPK has a thicker receiver. That's another difference. Not visible in the video, but it's another one.

[bryanferreira]

@bf2lover42 , IT´S an RPK

[ArmednSafe]

Why orange tape the RPK mags?

[bryanferreira]

@ArmednSafe , so that you can find them!!

[ArmednSafe]

@bryanferreira Why are they dumping their mags all over the battle field?

[bryanferreira]

@ArmednSafe , because they are shooting the badguys!!!

[ArmednSafe]

@bryanferreira What are they going to do in the field when they loose all their mags? They will end up with single shot rifles.

[bryanferreira]

@ArmednSafe , What are they going to do with empty mags?? use them for Rocks??

[ArmednSafe]

@bryanferreira Use them as these weird devices for feeding ammo into their rifle chambers. In all seriousness, throw them in a dump pouch and load them when they have the chance.

[bryanferreira]

@ArmednSafe , we don't use that!! In the place where some people waist their space putting dump pouches we put loaded mags, frags, smokes, medical kit, etc etc. So, we have all the ammo we can carry already loaded in mags. We don't waste time loading mags in the midle of a gunfight and we sure don't waste time putting empty mags in a useless dump pouch...

[ArmednSafe]

@bryanferreira It seems like a bad idea to me. You can't just find magazines hanging on the trees like fruit. What if there is no resupply of magazines? Doesn't the military teach their combat troops to hang on to their magazines?

[bryanferreira]

@ArmednSafe , well, that´s your ideia. If you are worried about that, you can always pick them up after the raid is over when you are collecting intel, weapons and others.

[brutalback]

@bryanferreira You can't always "Go back" to the site of the raid, sometimes you miss an exfil and you have no other option but to bug out into a different area and then you could reaaally use those magazines. Dump pouches really don't take up much space, and many times you can't even put magazines where you would put a dump pouch.

[bryanferreira]

@brutalback, Sir, you can put full magazines on drop leg pouches, your backpack, on your pockets, whereever you want. If you take ammo to fill magazines again, you are better taking more full mags.

[bf2lover42]

@bryanferreira From what I understand, GI mags are supposed to be "semi disposable". You can drop them if you need to, but magazine retention is important. What you described must be a logistical nightmare in practice, specially always assuming you can secure an area after "collecting intel" and weapons.

It felt weird entering this discussion. Now I have that dirty "keyboard general" feeling and it won't wash off.

[bryanferreira]

@bf2lover42, in a Firefight like shown in the video it is more important to have fast reloads and constant fire than being worried about storing some empy mags in a dump pouch. There might be some missions where storing empty mags may be necessary, but in most firefights with close encounters that is the least you have to worry about...

[HolmlundSWE]

@bryanferreira What you do with emty mags is to reload them with bullets. Trowing them is a bad idea, you shout stick to reload them ;)

[bryanferreira]

@HolmlundSWE , Well that is your ideia!! You are free to think like that. While engaging targets we don't waste time storing empty mags. We reload wish fresh new mags. At the end of the gunfight if there is time and oportunity we will pick them up and reload them when appropriate.

LOOSING TIME STORING EMPTY MAGS IN A MIDDLE OF A GUNFIGHT IS NOT ONLY A BAD IDEIA IT IS A STUPID AND DANGEROUS HABBIT...

[HolmlundSWE]

@bryanferreira It doesnt take much space at all! you just put the empty mags in place where your loaded ones were. Im not even saying that you should reload them during a gunfight but after. If you trow away all your mags during the fight, and you are unable to return to pick them up, you are out of luck in the next engagement. Dont always assume you get out on top or can get back. Storing the mag on the vest or leg takes maybe 2 seconds more per mag. That time can be spared :)

[bryanferreira]

@HolmlundSWE, you should train a little more.Then you would have realized that if you store empty mags in the place where your loaded ones were, when on the middle of a gunfight you need a mag with bullets you will end up with an empty mag and be killed by a guy who as a magazine with bullets.I don't know how much it takes to store because i don't care,every second makes a diference in a Gunfight.I can think about my next engagement only if I survived this one.EMPTY MAGS ARE NO USE

[HolmlundSWE]

@bryanferreira I see and respect the way you think. I however don't agree on all points. With a little training and use, you can easily have designated some mag pouches for use first, second and so on. Example, use ammo pouch one the first time you reload and second, fill that with empty mags. (then you know pouch one is with empty mags) After a while this sits in the back of your head, and no need to think about it. :) You say it like it is fact when that clearly is opinion.

[bryanferreira]

@HolmlundSWE , In stress of combat you will end up pulling an empty mag. Most of us have seen it many times. Your trainers with combat experience had the obligation to have tought you that.

And yes, It is a fact that on a raid like this keeping empty mags instead of doing fast reloads and keeping constant fire on target, is not an opion.

And if you can´t see the diference, I´m sorry for you and for the Men you command...

[HolmlundSWE]

@bryanferreira If you end up pulling empty mags instead of loaded ones after you have trained whit it you have either trained to little or easy to break under pressure (Im not specificly pointing you out) It is pretty easy feeling the weight of the mags loaded and unloaded aswell. Its hard doing wrong with right training. Keeping constant fire on the targets is not an issue, we carry about the same amount of ammo. I however would want not to be screwed on my second engagement.

[bryanferreira]

@HolmlundSWE , Sir, even with lots of training and nerves of steel you will pull an empty mag! It happens to the best, why not with you?! Belive me, if it can happen, it happens.

And in on your second engagement you just use your extra mags you have on your backpack or from the suplie lines. The empty ones will be of no use anyway unless you only have access to ammo and that is stupid because, if you can carry mags with bullets, why carry only ammo?!

[bryanferreira]

@HolmlundSWE , and loosing time storing empty mags will not let keep constant fire the same way you would if you do a normal reload. I'm sorry, but It's not the same...

[HolmlundSWE]

@bryanferreira Ah, I get your point now. You have more filled magazines in your backpack? Seems like a waste of resources to only uses them once though. See, id carry maybe 8 mags total.(main gun) and that will go a long way using precision fire (single fire). To throw those away would be really bad! I have some extra ammo in backpack but no extra mags. (again waste of resources). I go light. However I understand that you cant keep up with the same fire as if you would (new RE ->)

[HolmlundSWE]

@bryanferreira (cont..) when reloading without tucking away the empty mags. Still you dont need to tuck them in every time. wait 2 or 3 mags before you put all in the west. You will get almost the same cover fire but with a 8 second delay when you tuck em away. (of course all squad members would not halt fire at the same time.)

I would have wanted to formulate that better but im not native English speaker.

[bryanferreira]

@HolmlundSWE , well, not always do you have a squad by your side. And belive me, all guns will go quiet at the same time one time!! ahahah!! It just happens that sometimes everyone by your side will run out, so fast reloads are crucial.

No worries about the English, I could tell you where not American or English. That old way of operating with mags was easy to reveal yourself. Eheh, no Offense...

[HolmlundSWE]

@bryanferreira I shall take good notice of what you said. I must say that in an intense firefight you might have to think about fast reloads rather than preserving equipment. You have to understand though, where I come from we have to preserve equipment as long as we can or else we wont have any next time.

You make good arguments and I believe they are best in many occasions, when equipment is a bit more sparse you wont live long if you don't preserve and take care of them ;)

[bryanferreira]

@HolmlundSWE , I understand. And I never said that in certain ocasions you should not keep mags. That's why dump pouches where invented. But we where talking about this kind of operation in the Video, and this is a raid where every second counts to eliminate your enemy.

Off course there other casions when you are not at 100ft of your enemy, pushing forward, and you have cover, where you just put your new mag in the gun and pick the empty one to a dump pouch.

Can I ask where you are?

[yourfaceisuglyful]

@bryanferreira I just graduated from Infantry OSUT and the one thing they taught us that really struck me as stupid was that we should put our empties back into our FLC. The Drill Sergeants did at least add a caveat about the fact that during combat they didnt do this nor would we but TRADOC required they teach it to us.

[mpvasiliou]

cool vid. but the first 35 seconds made me dizzy

[StFrankieP]

This is straight, fucking, hooah....Great action, great shooting, great music. Keep it up and stay safe.

[IXxAmplifiedxX]

0:11 its captain price guys,

[viva0las0vegas]

Again, I don't know the stuff you guys do. I've only played airsoft. However, it appears as though if I were a bad guy on that couch in the first breaching scene, with a pistol I could have done some serious damage. Awesome video though!!!!

[bryanferreira]

@viva0las0vegas , well, you could have if you had the room full of friends and we only killed you friends first while you where recovering from the 2 flashbang we had put in the room.

If you notice, you can see the brass coming out of the guns enganging targets, you shoot what you see, you don´t skip your targets to go to the corner.

[mattaguitar5]

@viva0las0vegas understand too that high-risk scenario's such as room clearing tend to be glorified by the airsoft community (i know this cause my 15 yr old brother asked me to teach a class on it to his airsoft team).I told them that in an ideal situation, you dont have to clear a building and Im sure any military or police will agree with me on this one.Chances ARE high that the first man in will take a hit.My units SOP on it is if the first guy goes down, continue on.

[alistuzlak]

man you guys should show some respect to Bryan and the Tactical response team like James Yeager and Al Smith....sorry i forgot mookie :D ...this guys will fuck you up anytime anywhere. i had the honor to work whit theese guys down in Fuckhdhad...and all this asking for what do they train....for the case you need a brother a mother a father a sister a army to protect you........TACTICAL RESPONSE gives 500%....fuck you and have a nice day

[bryanferreira]

@MegaRom33 , negative. This is in the U.S.A., the Country of the Free and of the Brave

[adamdavidsson]

@bryanferreira freedom and jesus!.......jusst messing, who are these guys training for? looks fuuun!

[bryanferreira]

@adamdavidsson , for Tactical Response

[nzman101]

i love the line at the end of the video, i always feel that he is about to say something after some day this war is going to end, and when he doesn't it makes it 10x better

[Contest4Freedom]

Awesome video, thank you!

[bryanferreira]

@Contest4Freedom , Thanks

[Carthon916]

If you have some extra money that your willing to throw down to hone your skills, then this is one of the best training programs out there. Especially if your occupation requires team work and your tactical well being to keep your self and the guys next to you to be safely inserted into combat zones.

[SubSlaveCD]

100% real, superior men!!!

[kalif151byccrew]

let me guess, beards AK's.... PMC's?

[wolfpressedent]

What exactly are you training for?

[bryanferreira]

@wolfpressedent , these guys are training to fight.

[MechaRogers]

@bryanferreira Train as you fight. Fight as you train.

[arvis97]

looks like chuck norris

[nowthisis2stupid]

Do you feel like a badass cause you sure look the part >:-P

[konjyoman]

Every American male should go through training like this.

[AntonioFLA100]

Is this for people trying to get jobs as PMC's or is it for thrill seekers?

[bryanferreira]

@AntonioFLA100 , This is a course for everyone. PMCs do it, people wanting to train do it, military wanting to upgrade their skills do it, Law enforcement do it, everyone that wants to learn small unit tactics should do it.

[AntonioFLA100]

@AntonioFLA100 oh gotcha cool

[AntonioFLA100]

Someone fill me in on the point of this "course"?

[bryanferreira]

@AntonioFLA100 , what do you mean, by the point of this course?? and why did you write "course"??

[Firestorhm]

@bryanferreira -Don't pay any attention to AntonioFLA100. He's obviously just jealous and being a douche bag. Good vid, Bro!

[bryanferreira]

@Firestorhm , Yes I know. He needs to open his eyes to the real world

[VeeNRoG]

@bryanferreira who is this guys and what is this?is this just a "course" or a special training?

[bryanferreira]

@VeeNRoG , This is a course. It's just special because it's "awsomenessly" Good

[VeeNRoG]

@bryanferreira and,is this course in USA?and where it is?

[bryanferreira]

@VeeNRoG , Yes, USA. Go to Tactical Response Website

[sammully0321]

@rumpiesk8 There are several options. Magpul Dynamics, 1MOA Solutions and Larry Vickers all offer the kind of classes your talking about

[bryanferreira]

@sammully0321 , None of those Schools offers classes that even compares to HRCC courses

[frumpiesk8]

can anyone give me any other programs like this. because i found one awhile ago where they teach you to drive humvees shoot guns (AK and pistol) room clearing explosives. and now i cant remember the name of the site :/

[bryanferreira]

@frumpiesk8 , I don't know of any other school like this!! This one is the best i've been to. Go there and forget about the humvees...

[badkarmateam]

Badass video man. Is this tactical responses "Small Unit Tactics" or "Direct Action" traning?

[bryanferreira]

@badkarmateam , Both of them

[MrgunNut101]

[MrgunNut101]

[Blackscorpy]

@MrgunNut101 If you mean the one hanging sideways, it might be a Condor Compact Assault Pack (item 126 at their store), or whatever it's a copy of. I have the Condor product, a fairly nice ~20 liter backpack

[bryanferreira]

@Blackscorpy , it's Maxpedition

[HYPOspeed]

[bryanferreira]

@RustyNinja ´
