just a tip, the no sight use of a firearm is reflexive fire. being formerly of the 3rd ID out of ft stewart reflexive fire drills were pounded into our heads. i do it w/ my subcompact using old tee-shirts as targets, i dont draw but i go from completely relaxed stance not shooting stance to a snap shot and i am generally right where i want it to go, some times its an extremity shot
You go a bit overboard with the safety thing. Put the magazine in another room? Are you really that unsure of yourself? Come on.
As for lasers, you could also use a flashlight. Blinds the hell out of them, and you know where the gun is pointing. A bright-ass flashlight can completely debilitate them at night, and it's pretty intimidating, so you might not have to even fire a shot. Of course, you can't calibrate a light. And, with a shotgun...you want them to see the shotgun.
I believe Jose from the anime Gunslinger Girl had it right when he said "in combat sights are a luxury dont use them." i also think you should never pull a gun unless you truly intend to use it to shoot someone to save either yours or someone elses life.
For getting a concealed carry permit I made the decision that if I am going to pull it I will use it. "Its no longer a question, its a reaction". If you are thinking about a concealed carry permit, it will change your life.
What i do is print one of each out and take them into work and photocopy a whole lot for free on the big copy machine there... It pays to ask the boss first tho :-/ lol
Perhaps a link in your description would help out some of the less computer literate fans out there :-j
@hobo4524 that is actually the most awesome idea I've seen in ages. Gonna try this myself actually :) thanks dude. And yeah Jeff please do this if possible :)
hey jeff have you considered buying an airsoft gun like a glock replica and setting up targets around the house and starting in like your bedroom cuz if someone broke in a night thats were most people would be and then shoot all the targets to see how fast an accuratly you could shoot all the targets... just a suggestion oh and an edc video soon please :)
But lasers are a target indicator - other bad guys (if present) zero on the laser that points directly back to you. Point shooting covers conversation distance and in the dark, well you better be sure of your target - which requires a light instead - and the minute you illuminate the threat with a 50-80 lumen flashlight (blinding) - just put metal on meat and squeeze. ID threat, Shoot, Turn the light off and move. Yup, lasers don't work well in the bright sun. Lasers don't prevent trigger mash.
I own a Viridian 5XL green laser. It's kick ass. Now, a green laser is also visible in daylight. In fact its visible even in bright sunlight, and anywhere in between 0 -15 feet which is more than enough! I think it is pretty handy and my experience is that you can aim very fast. However, take it to a range an you'll feel you have Parkinsons!
Thanks Jeff. Gr8 video. I am a big believer in lasers mounted on home defense weapons as well. Thanks for taking the time to share. I definetly learned a few things
love this video..ive been in fights and i fully agree you can vapor lock a lot of the time fear of dieing fear of getting hurt can lock you up..Every one has a plan in a fight till they've been hit
I definately agree with you on this. The laser in the circle is like a waitress / waiter carrying a plate around. She will spill some drinks the first time, but with time he / she learns to carry that plate straight. Holding you gun still is the same thing.
Perhaps you could make a video on silencers / suppressors (even if you don't own one) for self defense.
These are very important points, and things that you usually hear and practice in good gunfighting courses. Unfortunately, this isn't heard or talked about too much here on YT. I'm glad to see someone well-known and liked such as yourself espouse this methodology.
If you want the strongest and most visible laser, then go with a blue one. Human eyes cannot see light close to the ends of the light spectrum, which goes from red (inferred) to orange, yellow then green, blue and into violet (ultraviolet). The higher up it is, the more powerful the beam will be. That is why blu-ray players can read HD video because a blue laser carries more information along it's shorter, quicker wavelengths. So a red laser is actually weaker than a green one...
Jeff, I'm 15 years old and i watch almost all your gun videos BUT they don't make me want to go around with a gun shooting random people on the street. It just baffles me how some people think about guns.
i watched about 5 minutes of the video but did not go further because i dont own a pistol yet (not 21) and because i think that a light would be a better option if i was going to put anything on it.
@illogicalmethod In my state, Oregon, it is 21 to buy handguns and 18 to buy long guns. I would lean towards a light because it would be nicer to use in a home defense situation where a laser would not light up the target and i would need to make sure to grab a handheld light.
I personally don't like lSwrs. I know about 10 people that is the only to shoot. I can see battery failure when you need them the most. Or it's to bright purses to use them There are more reason that I do t like them. I would think these folks would learn to shoot without a lazier first. The 10 that I know have not a clue how to shoot a gun without a lazer. Just my thought on them. Also to find a holster that will fit your laser Nd firearm is another reason I don't like them.
you want to be able to use ur sights (duh) but if you have to fire with your gun close to your chest because you dont have room to sight in i rather hit my light and get a general idea of my target area. and as far as a shotgun with a tight beam light depending on your size of shot if its in the light it will ger hit. kind of like a shotgun style lazer that tapers to the spread of the shot
i love this vid because you make a great point of shooting with one hand while some one is on you trying to stab you lol im not a huge fan of lasers because from a one handed draw in the middle of a fight i can see how it might be hard to see you laser but iv never been in this situation so its all just speculation. but i love gun lights because a bright light works as a deturrent and if you have your light with a somewhat narrow beam it kind of works as a (if its in the beam it gets hit)
Hey jeff is magnesium or something legal, i mean if you have super bright light under your gun witch is flashing the intruder wont be able to think clearly, just sayin'
lol your the best video maker on youtube I can watch a 30 minute video of yours on a subject that I dont even care about and be entertained the whole time! thank you.
@pete5668 Sure if your in a car and some guy comes up with a gun you can hit the gas, but what if there was a car or two or three in front of you and you can't push through. And also can't go on top of a sidewalk...
Damn right Jeff, my printer was £40 in a sale, the ink is £45 for a black and a colour!, insane!. I fill it my self these days, but its a messy affair, still, saves me a lot of pennies xD
I am holding a green laser that is visible at 100meters during the day (20mW). Get a stronger laser and a green one. Green laser dots are more visible due to how the eye works.
well if you want to train for firearm defense get an airsoft gas blowback for a realistic feel so that you can train in your home or back yard and still be safe and legal
What do you think about a weaponlight with a narrow beam instead? At close range, it should still point fairly precisely on a target, but not with pinpoint accuracy. In dimmer conditions, it has the advantage of killing someone's night vision.
Also, do you think training with a laser will cause your muscle memory to come to rely on lasers when youre not using it? If youre using a laser at home and regular sights out and about, you might get confused between them in the heat of battle.
lol what if a sumo wrestler trys to rob you i dont think a foot might even matter when the person wears size 250 waist pants XD all in joke yea lasers our great at night since it doesnt really take much time to point and shoot i would agree but they might fail when you need them most since they run on batterys.
Also if you are pointed down on someone from behind cover holding your ground with your laser on it gives away your position and gives them something to shoot at. However on the flip side there is such thing as red dot compliance. I don't use lasers or lights on my guns but its just personal preferance nothing against people that do.
Jeff, great video all your points were correct. To add to it I train prone and on my back but I'm a LEO. The hardest part is getting your gun out of the holster in those positions. Also I don't use a laser or advocate them. They run on batteries which can die I have seen guys mount red dots on ar's and rely on them so much they forget about iron sights. If you leave it on and the battery dies you go to use it and have no red dot. Same applies for lasers, they can fail.
Jeff; the only one that worries about the length of your videos is you. Have you ever sat down to watch your favorite TV show and thought:" I hope they made a short show today." No! You are hoping for an extended episode or that they play two episodes back to back. We watch you to be entertained. The longer the video the more entertainment.
Okay I know it's all gun safety and all and I am very safe with my firearms but I do not understand why people say put your ammo in a another room while practicing does the ammo magically jump in the gun if it's in the room
I was lucky enough to be trained by a secret service agent who is a friend of mine many times at a private range, It was the best training I have ever had, especially falling backward and shooting from the ground on your back, also in the prone position, and shooting while walking/running. I encourage anyone who has the opportunity to take a training course or be trained by a professional to DO IT NOW!
guns? yeah sure its fun at the range however, i would nothing but a good recurve bow for self defence. why? reusable ammo baby! if that black boo that came into my house doesnt go down from one arrow, i will pull it out and shoot it over and over until that motherfucker's airbags stopped pumpin in my air!!!
also a human body is a bigger target and even if you injure them you have enough time to finish what you need to do even if its either killing or disarming them
Just one more thing that you can add to this video or even a future one.. a laser is a good tool that someone physically handicapped could use, my father has muscular dis-trophy and he is confined to a wheelchair... he is looking to get a gun with a laser, for him it is more of a tool because he has trouble getting his arms to be held up so shooting from the hip for him is the only option, just another thing to think about... thanks for this video Jeff
On a pistol, I'd rather invest on night sights and a flashlight that I could strap onto the picattini rail, than a big laser. A grip laser I could get down with; but they are expensive and nor available for all guns.
@YoungBrave2006 On a rifle, I'd invest on an infrared weapon sight. For rifles the only reason I'd ever use a laser is for rangefinding, and I already have a rangefinding reticle and a BDC device on my rifle, and I'm pretty happy with them, so on both counts it's like, if you want to gift me a laser, fine; but if I have to spend a single dime on it, I'll pass until they make lightsabers.
Laser for CCw is a horrible idea , when your laser dies or breaks and you need to acquire a sight picture and all you are proficient in are lasers your stock intended sight picture is not going to come natural and you could have a bad delay and lose your life keep it simple under high stress your going to pint ad shot last thing on your mind is a laser and is it on my target out there it is I see it ! Bam ! not happening.
Green lasers are more powerful and brighter than red lasers. To figure out which is brighter/more powerful just go down the spectrum of light (ROYGBIV)
one thing u didnt menchion and i know u r not giveing a self defence advise but just saying bring the wepon to your eyes not eyes to the wepon always keep your eyes on the target at all times
@cutlerylover I was robbed 2 months ago and had the same situation. Im 13 but my dad says if u here a noise that sounds like someone in our house grab the 870 and check. So i did this and came as you said afce to face with the man. But, be fore i could aim he flashed his flashlight in my eyes stunning me and he ran off. Im am now a proud owner of two dobermans and a new glock 17.
Jeff are you far away from that cool field you used to shoot at? The one you where you made the vids with the 4 wheeler and evil roy target... I loved those shooting videos
thr is another condition in the fight or flight, its condition black. its when u just freeze and every1 and i mean every1 will go into it even soldiers SF guyz 2. thing is u train train train. i had to learn at 7y/o about it when i went to play off base when i lived on Clark Airforce Base in the philippines. i almost got kidnaped by knife point. a local police officer saved by burst firing the guy with his UZI. i froze so bad i got sprayed in the eye with blood and didnt blink. still in my mind.
what happens in a high stressed situation is that your heart rate jumps very high, blood actually leaves your arms & legs making it difficult for fine motor skills, that's why u need to practice drawing and target practice under a high pressure situation to build muscle memory. Not doing this for a few months this skill diminishes, its really something you have to consistently maintain.
just a tip, the no sight use of a firearm is reflexive fire. being formerly of the 3rd ID out of ft stewart reflexive fire drills were pounded into our heads. i do it w/ my subcompact using old tee-shirts as targets, i dont draw but i go from completely relaxed stance not shooting stance to a snap shot and i am generally right where i want it to go, some times its an extremity shot

Also I don't use a laser or advocate them. They run on batteries which can die I have seen guys mount red dots on ar's and rely on them so much they forget about iron sights. If you leave it on and the battery dies you go to use it and have no red dot. Same applies for lasers, they can fail.

Jeff; the only one that worries about the length of your videos is you. Have you ever sat down to watch your favorite TV show and thought:" I hope they made a short show today." No! You are hoping for an extended episode or that they play two episodes back to back. We watch you to be entertained. The longer the video the more entertainment.

I thought the purpose of rimfire snap caps was to allow dry fire without any chance of damaging your gun??

You're right. I never though of it that way. So when I wake up to a robber in my room I'll just be like "Hold up bro, I gotta turn my lazer on"

I avoided all the holster issues by getting a grip mounted laser. Doesn't affect the fit in any of my holsters.

I was lucky enough to be trained by a secret service agent who is a friend of mine many times at a private range, It was the best training I have ever had, especially falling backward and shooting from the ground on your back, also in the prone position, and shooting while walking/running. I encourage anyone who has the opportunity to take a training course or be trained by a professional to DO IT NOW!

Just one more thing that you can add to this video or even a future one.. a laser is a good tool that someone physically handicapped could use, my father has muscular dis-trophy and he is confined to a wheelchair... he is looking to get a gun with a laser, for him it is more of a tool because he has trouble getting his arms to be held up so shooting from the hip for him is the only option, just another thing to think about... thanks for this video Jeff

On a pistol, I'd rather invest on night sights and a flashlight that I could strap onto the picattini rail, than a big laser. A grip laser I could get down with; but they are expensive and nor available for all guns.
YoungBrave2006 1 month ago
@YoungBrave2006 On a rifle, I'd invest on an infrared weapon sight. For rifles the only reason I'd ever use a laser is for rangefinding, and I already have a rangefinding reticle and a BDC device on my rifle, and I'm pretty happy with them, so on both counts it's like, if you want to gift me a laser, fine; but if I have to spend a single dime on it, I'll pass until they make lightsabers.

Laser for CCw is a horrible idea , when your laser dies or breaks and you need to acquire a sight picture and all you are proficient in are lasers your stock intended sight picture is not going to come natural and you could have a bad delay and lose your life keep it simple under high stress your going to pint ad shot last thing on your mind is a laser and is it on my target out there it is I see it ! Bam ! not happening.

thr is another condition in the fight or flight, its condition black. its when u just freeze and every1 and i mean every1 will go into it even soldiers SF guyz 2. thing is u train train train. i had to learn at 7y/o about it when i went to play off base when i lived on Clark Airforce Base in the philippines. i almost got kidnaped by knife point. a local police officer saved by burst firing the guy with his UZI. i froze so bad i got sprayed in the eye with blood and didnt blink. still in my mind.
Tacticalopsec101 1 month ago
what happens in a high stressed situation is that your heart rate jumps very high, blood actually leaves your arms & legs making it difficult for fine motor skills, that's why u need to practice drawing and target practice under a high pressure situation to build muscle memory. Not doing this for a few months this skill diminishes, its really something you have to consistently maintain.
