[QUOTE="english kanigit, post: 2563969, member: 4701"] This is a quick write-up regarding a shooting event that OSAer uncle moneybags and myself attended in LittleRock, AR on 21June2014. I'm writing this to serve as a point of learning and/or discussion for anyone who wishes it. If you want to cut straight to the chase a first-person video from my Contour camera can be seen at the following link. Specifics on the various target distances and other aspects of the run can be found on the YouTube video description. I cannot copy/paste them here at this moment. Be forewarned, it is about 23 minutes long. [url]http://youtu.be/3PbQkUuSvCk[/url] I've been familiar with the Direct Action Resource Center for quite some time now. This is mainly from reading training AARs from LEO-types I know who've trained at the facility. As their old website stated that they were a LEO/.MIL only training facility I had never given them a second look. That seems to have changed in the last year or so and as a result when I heard of this 'freedom shoot' event I immediately jumped on the opportunity.
