Anyone who has taken our American Rifleman or American Precision rifle class will attest that we focus heavily on knowing your zero from shooting it! Nothing can replace that. I prefer a 100 yrd zero & don't care what you choose, but in our class you will leave knowing whatever you choose.

The CSAT Way

I decided to touch on the 50 Yard Zero for this Myth Buster Monday. The attached target is compilation of all the targets shot for this video and where I hold. I hope it helps you make up your mind which zero to use and if nothing else, it encourages you to check your 50 yard zero at 100. I hope everyone has a peaceful Memorial Day and remember those who have fallen.

I have received several emails asking if we are currently open.
HELL YES WE ARE!!
What is more "essential" than being prepared to defend and or save your life or the lives of others?
In these uncertain times with so many new firearm owners, along with domestic abuse, home invasions and person on person assaults on the rise, professional life saving training should be a top priority.
Shoot us an email for large group, small group or individual private classes.

Social media trolls and narks this is for you!
"A man is likely to mind his own business when it is worth minding. When it is not, he takes his mind off his own meaningless affairs by minding other people's business.
This minding of other people's business expresses itself in gossip, snooping and meddling, and also in feverish interest in communal, national and racial affairs. In running away from ourselves we either fall on our neighbor's shoulder or fly at his throat."

Loadout part 3 Battle Belt
Although it has changed up a bit over the years I have been running this core battle belt setup for a very long time.
I personally do not prefer to use a battle belt for long trek rural environments but it certainly has many other purposes. It is very comfortable and setup to fully support me without a chest rig or PC, for me they augment the battle belt, not the other way around.
The battle belt itself is an original HSGI padded belt. As I stated, I have had this one a long time & even though they have changed up a bit since then this one is very comfortable and still works great. The suspenders are also HSGI, I realize most don't seem to be using them anymore, but I really like them on a battle belt. You cannot even tell they are on under a chest rig or PC. The inner belt is a SOE, doesn't get more indestructible than that. I have 1 or 2 of most all of their belts and have never had an issue. For me this is the most important and overlooked part of the setup. I OFTEN see people set up very expensive battle belts and then use a inner belt with a fastex plastic buckle. To me this is like putting a plastic lug nut on an indy car. This is not a game for me, I am relying on this gear to save my life or others. Why would I get the best gear I can to do that, and then put all of my faith in a plastic buckle to keep it attached to me? What if that broke in a gunfight? Is that really worth the risk? Sure I know several very experienced guys running them that way without an issue but for me the risk is simply not worth it. I have personally broke that same fastex buckle on backpack cummerbunds and on a HSGI PC so no way in hell I would trust them with my life!
Starting from the left side, 1st is a Tactical Tailor Fight Light Magna pistol mag pouch for a fast reload, next is a HSGI covered pistol mag pouch, 2 HSGI single rifle mag pouches with additional over the top bungee retention, another HSGI single mag pouch for a hand held light. In the back is a very flat SO Tech trauma kit easily accessed with either hand. Next is a Tactical Tailor Fight Light smoke / frag pouch & a G code RTI molle mount to attach whatever knife I need to run for what I am doing. It is generally the Jeff Crowner Combat Tracker as pictured. Next is a G code mule drop mount and a Black Label Holster. lastly are two more covered HSGI single pistol mag pouches the 1st holds another pistol mag for strong side reloads and the last is for a multitool.
I address the covered pouches and the additional retention in part 1 if interested.
Everyone has their own idea on gear setups, mine have been worked out over MANY miles. Hopefully this may save you some miles and $ on your setup.

"These are the times that try men's souls"
These are also the times that expose them. There are many in this industry who continually spout out the latest tough guy phase of the month like "I am full of coffee and hate" repeating it over and over trying to convince themselves & others that they are in fact something that they know they are not. Of course I am speaking in general terms and does not apply to everyone, but I have seen this time and again. These are the people that are continually telling everyone what they are going to do but when the time comes they are magically MIA & radio silence. They tell you "I would have come if I knew earlier" or " call if you need anything" blah, blah, blah.
They are generally unstable people full of high highs & low lows. This in no way means that they cannot be good people and serve a purpose. However I would never trust them with my life. By some rare chance they do show when you need them, you cannot predict which version will have shown up or may remain.
Always good to know & confirm who is who.
