I recommend having a lanyard on your home defense flashlight for better usability, but having an efficient one is key. Our latest youtube video is up with an easy answer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z8QfZVp5Jc0

We were recently interviewed by WWL Radio about more and more females getting involved with shooting. The original interview aired on 01/28/15, but here is a recap of what we spoke about. http://www.wwl.com/Women-increasingly-getting-into-the-gun-market/20806751

I find that the #1 handgun recommended to new shooters is a revolver. Here are my thoughts on the subject. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gNEPfyMendI

I recently returned from Orlando, FL where I was teaching as an adjunct to I.C.E Training in the SWAT Roundup International event. This annual event brings operators from around the globe together for learning. I was encouraged by the mentality of the attending officers wanting to better themselves and the teams they serve with. Many officers were repeat students showing their excitement with the CFS/CFC program. Thank you to all the officers who filled the classes and I hope you had a great time with the competition. http://www.icetraining.info/i-c-e-training-company-at-2014-swat-round-up-international/  

A real truth is we cannot count on others to protect us if we face danger. Take a look at this video where I highlight some of these points. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xfnDjdTXjdo

It is very important that we train and practice with the worst case in mind. You might get lucky by stopping a threat psychologically, but that is certainly not something you can depend on. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbpynGNfayY
