“Let the trigger surprise you” Something that for years many shooters were instructed is to let the trigger surprise you. I.e. to press through the wall and the break and not think about when the gun is going to go off, so that it surprises you.

Couple of the YPT lads vibing out on a recent Friday night with some cigars, dry fire, and kimchi. When you’re not shooting, what else do yall do for fun? Anyone got any good shit going on this weekend?

Nice run from one of our contributors on classifier CM 23-02, This Could Be the Greatest Night of Our Lives. A-class run on this one, 11A 1C, 6.55 seconds, HF 8.8550. We know some of yall have shot this one as well! If you have, drop how you’ve done in the comments!

Vaxxed?

If you’re trans and looking to tool up, the time is now. There’s no gun registry in the USA for existing owned firearms. But impeding regulations from AG Pam Bondi (who herself had an anti-gun record as Florida AG) could impair your ability to buy from an FFL. edition.cnn.com/2025/09/04/p...

In his Discworld series, Terry Pratchett’s character Sam Vimes put forth a “theory of socioeconomic unfairness,” usually just known as the Vimes Boots Theory.

New event! 📆8th - 15th Oct On Oct 15th 2024 the AIF was founded on the outskirts of Falam just prior to the battle to liberate it. Since the AIF has been on the frontline & providing training to resistance. A solidarity week has been called to mark this occasion www.instagram.com/p/DOBKnzBj-1Q

One of our contributors shooting a couple of the new 25 series classifiers. These are pretty cool and incorporate more modern shooting techniques like shooting on the move and freestyle shooting.

From azad_afa (IG username), originally posted on Instagram: Equipment from night vision fundraiser acquired! Recently, with the help of our comrades at @yellowperiltac.bsky.social , we set a goal of $3000 to aquire more night vision and thermal optics for the AlF.

In an earlier post, we and hevalti.fun.club (IG) talked about using a high optic mount to aim under night vision. Although the high mount makes NODs usable, it’s not ideal versus using the same optic in the day. The solution is using a laser to aim.

We finished our fundraiser for Liberate Myanmar liberate_myanmar (IG) and Karenni Nationalities Defence Forces Tactical Operations Command 7! Thanks so much to everyone who grabbed a Phoward patch. Together, we raised $2,738 dollars for Liberate Myanmar.

Aiming under NODSs with hevalti.fun.club (IG) Congrats! You saved up and bought a PVS-14! You threw down even more for a helmet, J-arm, and mounting interface. When your homie’s uncle finally lets you visit and magdump into trash a few weekends later, you run into a problem: aiming isn’t the same.

Finally scored the Phoward patch from @yellowperiltac.bsky.social Mutual aid looks good on me 😁

One of our contributors decided to try out the Baer Solutions monthly drill challenge. Much harder than it looks. Running in a dead sprint from 25 yards, then between the 10 and 5 yard mark, you must engage both the open target and headbox of the partial no shoot target, all on the move.

Very true and we just wrote about this as well

If you got one of our Phoward patches recently, we sent out a shitload and people are starting to get em

Follower dsouzaphone (Instagram handle) getting dry fire done with scale targets in the creepy dungeon environment. Prep for the Resident Evil match 😂

An interesting firearm here from whereiskev (IG username) and the crew at KNDF TOC 7. When was the last time you saw an Uzi? This one here is either an Israeli Uzi, or it’s a locally-produced BA94 Uzi copy, produced under license by the Tatmadaw (Maynmar’s military).

We asked some good shooters how they mentally recover when shooting a bad stage. Master-class USPSA Carry Optics shooter Nick O’Connell IG greasy_dolphin_shooting was kind enough to share his process. This definitely applies to anyone feeling setbacks, bad day at practice, etc.

One of our contributors spent a SIGNIFICANT amount of time this weekend addressing dozens and dozens of envelopes… but the fundraiser for LM (liberate_myanmar on IG) continues! Still have Phoward patches left! And far fewer than when we started 👀

The V drill Like designated target, this drill required the shooter to “bounce” back to a primary target between shooting others on either side. Varying the distance or target presentation forces different confirmation levels for the shooter.

How about instead of fuckin around with paper towels you just practice with your ACTUAL DOT?? On your draw, what are you doing looking at your front sight post?? Look at THE TARGET aka the thing you are trying to fucking shoot.

Get a Glonk or S&W. - The only people doubling down on the P320 are people who have already bought in and are emotionally invested. And that's a dwindling number.

On July 24, President Donald Trump signed the executive order Ending Crime and Disorder on America’s Streets. This executive order is a thinly veiled attempt to progress the administration’s efforts at rounding up and disappearing undesirables to the next stage.

Lots of libs coping and seething at this very correct thread and refusing the grapple with the obvious truth that more gun control = more cops.

My friends at YPT are once again fundraising for the Spring Revolution. If you’d like to steal this look, you’ll need an airsoft carrier, Glock in the mag pouch, and the Burma edition RPR.

PHOWARD They’re back! These sold out really fast last time, so pho enjoyers, don’t miss out! One of our most popular designs, you may even see people wearing em at your local range 👀

Trigger control at speed drill (TCAS) To shoot faster, you need to press the trigger faster. To press the trigger faster, the secret isn’t precision movement like “feel the reset” or “stage to the wall” or whatever, it’s mainly just slappa the trigger.

OPSEC is a spectrum When talking about OPSEC, sometimes we see people talking about how to be impervious to the feds or infiltrators. Here’s the hard truth. You can’t. All organizing (or at least effective organizing) will involve some kind of risk.

Trigger freeze. One of our contributors got to shoot one of the new USPSA classifiers at a local match. Fairly straight forward hoser style stage. Only issue? He got a bad case of trigger freeze. The result isn’t a match ender but certainly enough to slow down the efficiency of any run.

When the unexpected happens, go with the flow and make corrections as needed. During this stage, two of the steel poppers did not go down despite being hit. The rounds hit a tad bit too high and did not transfer enough energy to force the steel to fall over.

We previously got canned on here for promoting violence/regulated goods. This place has an itchier ban finger than IG.
