Many of the tactical shooting videos you see are staged. They are practiced over and over again and then when things are perfected, the camera starts rolling. Not in Nutnfancy shooting videos. That’s because I am first and foremost a gear and systems reviewer and it’s interesting to show my viewers the actual tactical lessons that sometimes generate my conclusions. For instance when the EOTECH XP2-2 on my Arsenal SGL21 gets shut off (for whatever reason) and then needs to be used instantly in a bright, snowy environment under stress, it comes back on at mid-brightness level that looks invisible under the conditions. That caused confusion for me and delay problems…you’ll see that happen! You’ll see the misses, the hits, the lessons learned, the tiredness, the fun times, the good, the bad, and the ugly. Armchair Elitists (AEs) sometimes will weigh in on the comments and strive to gain cool points from the viewers by their often inane observations. Go and check out their videos to ascertain their; most are disconnected from the reality of this type of shooting and their performance in desert with us would be abysmal. There are definitely better shooters (3-guys that are very practiced) but Ive learned talk is cheap and I’ve seen lots of guys who talked big ending up with the lowest scores (usually plays out that way). Also keep in mind this was not a suppressive fire exercise but instead players were graded on their SPEED and ACCURACY against diverse targets ranging from …

The last part of my review of Star Trek First Contact. In this segment I bitch about some little things and then the whole ending.

Remastered opening titles I edited together for Star Trek First Contact, with the opening sequence from CONTACT, with the amazing music by Jerry Goldsmith. I used the opening of CONTACT with the Star Trek IV The Voyage Home Remastered Titles (reversed journey thru the stars). I thought that they would work with the First Contact titles, as well (with some added special effects for fun). STAR TREK and related marks are trademarks of CBS Studios Inc.
