Primary and Secondary Podcast

Podcast with Dustin and John Holschen. This is a long one! Lots of discussion about training design process, resource management and the integration of visual processing into shooting skills.

Gun Safety Failure

Article 058 – Gun Safety Failure:  The “Rust” movie set tragedy highlights fatal flaws in traditional gun safety rules.

Second Order Effects

Article 057: Second Order Effects: The Unintended Impacts of Qualification Structure. When looking at the establishment of standards and criteria for large organizations (and, particularly, for training academies) it is also important to look at the unintended effects of these requirements.
