    Howard, I truly enjoyed your series. I did miss a few but all that I got to see were top drawer.
    When guns are outlawed only criminals and the government will have them and at that time I will see very little difference in either!

    Great effort Howard, I've looked forward to reviewing your videos over the past two years. Best of luck on your next endeavor...your videos are well filmed and to the point. You're a good 'presenter' sir. Many thanks, Rod

    Amazing you may be the only man in the country that has fired the course for every state .
    Very interesting to watch the courses fired with the variety of firearms you used.

    Thank you, Howard, very much for these videos. My Personal favorite was the New Hampshire course, in 36 shots it tested a lot, and I particularly like it for CCW use. Running through it with a snubbie, or a compact 9 or 40 auto makes for a useful test of one's ability to use one's off-duty or carry firearm.

    My criticism of some of these courses is that whoever designed them must be from a 6 man department, because they are very demanding to administer. I liked the Pennsylvania course as firearms training: it is superior to any of the others in that regard, but as a qualification course, I thought it was a little too busy. "Threat", "No Threat" is great training, especially when you have a handful of shooters, but when you have a dozen or more to run through for monthly, or even quarterly qualification it adds time and complication. Which costs time and money, which there is never enough of in the training budget.

    Thank you for all your time and effort HRfunk. Hopefully, it's been an eye opener for some, and a lesson to others. Practice, practice, and practice some more when you can. The last thing any officer hopes to do, is resort to their sidearm and having to use it. Lord help those forced into that position.
