Agreed, training in your kit is part of the whole "crawl, walk, run" sequence of slowly building the challenge and your expectations of yourself.
This is especially true for newcomers who might find the initial hurdle of training too complicated or difficult when always having to do it with their kit.
But even for experts, learning a new skill should be done this way. Hone your skills first, then adapt the skill to the introduction of kit.
Lucas: "FRTs aren't good for home defense." Implying that you need to be highly accountable for your rounds so you don't accidently k*ll your child, dog, neighbor, etc.
The internet: "Hurrdurr here Lucas shoot full auto 4 years ago!" I swear people just hate him to hate him.
@TyofTX@bmitori@LucasBotkin Yeah, because it's what's realistic. And it's not like you can't accomplish the same task with semi. I have no problems with FRTs, but I don't think it makes sense to train for the least likely defensive scenarios especially when you're probably not going to have a rifle on hand.
@TyofTX@bmitori@LucasBotkin So question, outside of a SHTF minority scenario, in everyday life, the 99% of the time, are you going to be suppressing an/multiple adversaries if they were to say, attack you at your house or anywhere where you might have your rifle on hand? Like realistically?
Like is there objectively good gear and bad gear? Yes there is, whether I like it or not that's reality. But coming into the gun space with a process training based mindset, I feel is the best way to go about things.
Man seeing the controversy on Lucas's takes on FRTs and foregrips on gun twitter the past few days has really opened my eyes to how many midwits and hive mind operational people there are.
And they aren't really willing to test and really put themselves under the stress of even just a timer on their comfort range, with what they have and tend to overestimate their capabilities, while most still being steadfast to say their take is the end all be all.
@bmitori Oh the classic "just point it in their general direction and you'll hit them" does this man think that real shotguns are like Halo shotguns? Where the buckshot becomes pixie dust after 5yds
@TeslaTim2@bmitori@Canik Well as someone who used to be a Glock hater and as someone who literally EDCs a CZ75, I think you're just coping. Once you actually start some real training you'll see the value in the simplicity and shootability of a Glock is apparent.
@TeslaTim2@bmitori@Canik I think if a Glock is the worst thing you've ever put in your hand you probably haven't tried enough handguns nor train enough.
@VideoGameStart Well if you take your time and set it up correctly the first time its a non issue. Literally keep the GPU drivers updated with the manufacturers app and windows updated and shit just works. Not rocket surgery.
