2340......very well stated my man. I feel exactly the same way and that is the reason I started this string in the first place. Yet, I still haven't heard from anyone who has been through the course who can tell me what I need in the way of other equipment - knee pads, elbow pads....ammo carry pouches...etc...etc - which was part of the reason I started this.
Can any one help us out here with the exception of the one fellow who I will contact this weekend. Thanks for the number my man.....

StrangerDanger......nice looking weapon!!!!...

Striped1....again I ask, where are you coming up with this religious twist to the Frontsite training?.....I went and did a quick search just now and didn't find anything out on the net about any religious points to the training.
Am I missing something here that is so obvious I havn't picked up on it yet?

Rezarf....thanks for you advice.....and that is a very deadly looking tool you have there my man!....I like the looks of that alot.

Sniper:
Look, time for me to say something here. I have no idea who has been telling you that Frontsite is a Christian revival meeting. At least the one course last year about this time I went through wasn't one. Not even.
I worked as a trainer in the Information Technology business for a number of years, and well designed and conducted training is noticeable.
I was trained on long rifles in the Military but never hand held weapons until the four day Defensive Handgun course there last year. I went into that real uncomfortable because of my lack of knowledge and experience. But after an hour or two the first day all of that went away.
Our instructor was a skilled and heavily experienced security guy with a military background.....USMC. He never made fun of anyone and helped everyone and there was no such thing as a stupid question.
As a result of that class, I now carry a Glock 23 everywhere I go ....comfortably. And ....at no time during any of that 60 hours of training was I asked to listen to anything remotely of a religious nature.
Where are all of those comments coming from?
Like I said, I could care less about the man's religious convictions although I do respect them.
My personal experience there says that the comments made here so far about the training conducted there having a religious component are obviously made by people who have not attended any classes there.
Hope that doesn't piss off any of you making those statements.... but if it does....nah....I will be civil and not go there.
Do yourself a favor Sniper....with all due respect.....go check it out yourself. I believe you will fine you will more than get your money's worth.
....and that's all I got to say about that.....

Thanks for that advise about using the same ammo my friend....I will remember it.

Hello, I've been through the shotgun class a few times and you will have a great time, The Instructors are excellent and no matter where your at in your shooting ability you'll come out much improved. Front Sight is a great place to train and you pick up different things in every class. As for the ammo, It's best to buy all the same type so when you get your pattern it shouldn't change. The low recoil isn't as hard on you if your gun will cycle it, but try to train with what you'll be using at home. Dr. Piazza is ragged on by a lot of people but in all of my dealing with him he does what he says he will and I think is a asset to anyone who supports the second ammendment.
Hello Big Thunder Bob:
Besides me, the ammo and shotgun, what else do I need to bring for the Tactical Shotgun Course at Frontsite?
Do I need knee and elbow pads? What do you recommend for carrying the Ammo? I will be using a Benelli M1 Super 90 Tactical and have been warned about the side saddle carriers on those weapons.
It there one best ammo carrying solution or do I need more than one for the various drills?
If we can have a conversation off line (I haven't read all the freaking rules for this forum so excuse me if I am making a mistake in asking)? If so, we can do that at [email protected]
....and thanks in advance for any information on this topic you can provide.

I don't care about the man's politics. The defensive handgun course I attended a year back was excellent. I thought I was ok with hand guns....what a foolish statement that was I can now say without being embarrassed about it. Anyone who has been to one of those will say the same if they are honest about it.
I never carried before going to that course and I now carry all the time without a second thought.....safely. For what that is worth...

Spoke with a man today at the gun show in Phoenix....told me I needed to get a reduced recoil internal set up for the Benelli.
Anyone know about these?
-
Who and where has the best price on a Benelli M4? I have been finding a huge range in price and some really odd low ball stuff as well.
I'm looking for a SBS or the standard 18"
Thanks,
Check out gunsamerica.com
lots of Benelli's there.....

Will be going through that course soon with a M1 Super 90 Tactical.
They tell me I need 300 rounds of Birdshot, 250 rounds of 00 and 75 rounds of Slugs over a four day course.
Have any of you been through this course and if so what ammo vendors would you recommend?
Been reading a lot about low recoil shell recommendations and I need to speak to someone who has been this course with a Benelli M1 through M4 for an ammo recommendation based on your experience.

Can anyone tell me where I go to buy a set of Ghost Rings to mount on my M1 Super 90 Tactical Shotgun as well as a gunsmith to mount them? I am in Pheonix.
-
What state are you located in please?....maybe Arizona?
-
Any idea what the accuracy specs are on this weapon?
-
Ok Tex, you are obviously a subject matter expert...so tell me, what would you think the max effective range is on this?
-
Oh yeah....about 30 minutes ago. Went into my firearms dealer of choice here where I live and there was one on the rack. Man!....very nice weapon!....delayed buying that RRA AR15 I had made up my mind to buy.
This is one sweet weapon....just like the shotguns. This one was priced at $1080.00.
Can anyone tell me what the shot accuracy of this is out to say 600 yards?
