My father CSM Raymond D Burbank, was among the first Green Berets, joining in 1962.He served with the 10th, 7th, 5th, and 3rd Special Forces.He is buried at Ft Campbell Ky, 101st Airborne. He is my hero, and I miss him everyday .
Kevin Owens is an awesome addition to FS! He’s a natural teacher, and he obviously loves doing it.

I just subscribed.

Mentally I think I had what it take's to be a Green Beret, even my doctor's can't believe that I can push myself to keep walking without a walker or cane's.God Bless you guy's for your service and what you continue to do .Thank You

It's awesome how Mike and The Instructors get straight to the point without all the fluff and EGO B.S. Every one of these videos gives me something to take and build on. Thanks again Mike Glover and Fieldcraft .
As an instructor, it's always a privilege to have the opportunity to train and instruct switched on professionals who want to be there and are willing to soak up excellent subject matter knowledge from their instructors. I had the opportunity to train a certain middle eastern ally's SOF. Let me tell you, it was the polar opposite of this. It was like trying to herd cats. It made the job very frustrating and not enjoyable, unlike what this range day looked like. Great video.
Damn I love the way you guys explain everything and make it seem so much easier than it really is, Thanks for what you do and cant wait to see yall in SC at the Sawmill, really looking forward to learning alot

Great video as always. I always learn something watching. You guys do a great job explaining.
My “mountain climbers” consist of variations of this in my house with a mag full of dummy rounds for some sort of weight familiarity. Obviously I’m not cracking off rounds in my basement so I’m missing out on the shooting aspect but the movement mechanics I’m able to keep sharp. Anyways, love the videos and the podcast. Thanks for all the killer content.
Kevin packed a lot of great info into a few minutes. Useful. Thanks.

Transverse, sagittal planes... A Strong core & of course good kness are needed, to change to these positions quickly!
Cool. I like that solid, stable, durable mantra. Once you start thinking about it when shooting. Not even this kind of shooting- Defensive or offensive. Just me on the range having fun with my AR you start to think that -solid, stable, durable. Wish I could come to a course. Few more years 😥😢

…AND, there is DEFINITELY a noticeable difference between Mike and Kevin, and other “tactical” teachers. Thanks for the info, gentlemen!
Cannot hear anything. Can you make sure the videos are properly sub captioned? Great stuff guys, love the knowledge transfer.
Hey Mike I know this is off topic but in the video with vigilant elite you had said that a bungy cord could be used for a improvised tourniquet, can you do a video showing how?
I'm so jealous!
1. When breaking shots through position changes, should I hold the butt in my elbow like a brace? 2. Could I use my buddy as a point of contact? 3. Thanks for the video
Kevin's comment about the 20 round magazine is spot-on. The 20's shorter profile allows the rifle more flexibility in finding that stable position from an awkward shooting location. Even the 10 round mag has a place especially for a swat member whose round count in an engagement is typically low, in the single digits even.

As a rifle instructor, the basic shooting positions, standing, kneeling, sitting, prone add on supported, cover, etc.
Things must have changed a bit. Decades ago in my Infantry days the technique was to hold the top of the butt stock in your right, or dominant, hand to use the rifle as a way to "break" your fall as you settle into the prone position. Now many people hold the pistol grip with dominant hand and use the non dominant hand to brace yourself as you land in the prone. Just an Infantry ground pounder, 11C. No 18x codes in my DA-201 file.
From watching your bug out videos to this Mann you and John Lovell doesn’t make it tactically difficult y’all make it simple for the average person
Not the "alternate positions" video I was originally looking for but this will do.

Thank you for posting this! I just want to double-check to make sure I understand this, when getting into a firing position, you showed holding the gun at the barrel, with the rest ice your hand coming to the stock. I have left hemiplegia, so, my left arm/hand has limited range of motion. Would that be a safe enough point t to hold the gun, as opposed to the stock resting in my left hand?
How do you feel about always reloading in your workspace

The only thing I ask from SWAT cops is KEEP YOUR FITNESS, I got a chance to hang out with my cousin a few weeks ago, he’s a SWAT guy and some of his team mates were looking a little soft, I don’t get it when a couple of them were single with no kids, they have all the time in the world to stay right year round. I can’t imagine seeing guys look bad like that in relation to the job they are charged with carrying out. Shooting is good but damn, stay tight too.
