Two quick items of note…. The radio show I did with John Johnston of Ballistic Radio is available for download HERE. We talked for an hour about active killer response for the CCW permit holder. I think you will find the information valuable. One of the callers on […]

What’s New
Photos from TIG Knife Class
Last weekend I taught a “Basic Knife for the Concealed Carry Operator” class for the Tactical Intelligence Group in Cincinnati. It was a fun class full of 16 motivated students. I enjoyed teaching it and look forward to going back to teach some more classes. Below are some random photos from the class. […]

New Article in American Handgunner Magazine
Written by: Greg Ellifritz The latest edition (Sept/Oct) of American Handgunner contains an article that I recently wrote. The article uses my handgun stopping power research but is much shorter, more concise, and less confusing than the original Alternate Look at Handgun Stopping Power. If you have ADD and didn’t want […]
A Quick Trip to the Dominican Republic
If any of you noticed last week’s repeated (albeit updated) articles, it was because I took a quick vacation to the Dominican Republic. Some friends visit the island every year and they invited me to go along. I had never been there before and it sounded like fun, so I hopped on the plane. […]
Range Master Tactical Conference
I’ll be teaching in Memphis, Tennessee on Saturday March 2nd at the Rangemaster Tactical Conference. The Conference looks to be a great learning opportunity and runs from March 1st to March 3rd in conjunction with a low light shooting match. The class I’m teaching is called: “Responding to the Close […]
Back From Honduras!
Written by Greg Ellifritz I apologize for the somewhat sparse posting schedule I’ve maintained in the last couple weeks. I traveled down to Honduras to both celebrate my 40th birthday and learn to scuba dive. It’s tough finding the motivation to write when I’m hanging out in a tropical paradise! I spent […]
“Defensive Knife for Concealed Carry” AAR
Last week I taught a new class for the first time. It was an introductory knife skills class for Concealed Carry Permit Holders. The class went extremely well and I was pleased at the large turnout (22 students) and the level of enthusiasm the training group had. I couldn’t ask for any better students! […]
I’m a training guy. I’m not a website developer/social media expert. I created this website just because I thought it would be a good skill to learn. I’ve learned a lot and feel comfortable managing the site, but I really don’t care to take the time to learn much more. It just isn’t […]
Paul-E-Palooza Memorial Training Event AAR
Last week I was honored to instruct at the inaugural Paul-E-Palooza Memorial Training Event. Paul Gomez was a well known firearms instructor and friend of mine who died an untimely death several months ago. Approximately 30 of the best trainers in the world (organized by William Aprill and Sherman House) donated their time to create […]
New Magazine Article Published!
Delta Media’s Concealed Carry Magazine just published one of my articles describing some research I have done into the types of guns criminals use in their crimes. I think you’ll find the research interesting. Check it out at the link below! Criminals and the Guns They Carry
Scam Targeting Shooting Instructors
A couple of different firearms instructors contacted me after receiving the EXACT same email. They were inquiring if I had received the solicitation and if I thought it was legitimate. Here’s what the email said…. Greetings, I want to book for 2 weeks firearm training, 1 or 2 hours each day Monday to Friday […]
Learning From Tragedy- Part 2
Brannon LeBouef offers some of the best tactical commentary that I have yet seen on the Batman movie shooting in Aurora Colorado. “Shotgun blasts, the smell of fast burning propellant, eyes burning from CS gas, the yells of children and gurgles of blood filled lungs crying out for help, eardrums pounding from the over […]
TDI Knife Class at Rick Hinderer Custom Knives
Last weekend I was honored to teach my TDI Defensive Knife Class at Rick Hinderer’s annual get together in Shreve, Ohio. This was my fourth time being hosted by Rick and his wife Lori and I always have a great time. This last class had 14 students coming from as far as Michigan, Florida, […]
Back From Colombia!
Sorry for the small number of posts recently. I just spent the last couple weeks doing some adventure travel through Colombia. It had been one of the few South American countries that I hadn’t visited. While there I checked out Bogota, Medellin, Santa Marta, the Tyrona National Park, and Cartagena. I paraglided for the […]
