Once again proving that buying gear isn’t the same as buying skill.

Pretty much.

Tactical is a mindset not something you buy
Well said sir

Training is the most important thing when discussing guns but I justv hought it was cool to see a guy with a budget AK win a big match. I think or hope ,that most people here train with their firearms whenever possible.

Is this Taran Butler, who has won countless matches and trains movie actors so they don’t look foolish on screen?

Yea, he trained Keanu Reeves for John Wick. He is one of the top shooters in the world, up there with Jerry Miculek.
