69- Tac Talk with Jimmy: The Evolution of Training and Kits

We've been saving this guest for a bit. And Episode 69 (nice) seemed like a special enough episode number to bring him on. For our first ever in-person recorded episode, Taylor and pat bring on their close friend, Jimmy. Jimmy has a lot of experience being behind a gun. With a resume including two tours in Afghanistan, maritime anti-piracy operations in the east, and being on the protection detail of house hold names, Jimmy has a lot of real world experience and knowledge.

In this episode, we talk about how training in Canada has evolved over the past decade, whether that be in the civilian world or for those that wear a uniform. Jimmy has been a student and an instructor in both the private/civilian based courses as well as Canadian Forces courses. He discusses how training completely changed for the Army once Canada was no longer in Afghanistan, and what the training points shifted to.  

Jimmy then also brings up Trojan Securities and his experiences of taking their courses. This brings up the question if time and knowledge has forced the fundamentals of shooting to shift in a more positive way for people pulling the trigger. 

The conversation shifts from the changes of fundamentals to the shifts in mindset in the community. The three discuss the change in mindset that they've noticed in the community from being focused on the shooting aspect to a broader spectrum of being an asset for yourself and those around you. Topics covered in the Stoneface Defense episode come up again, like having appropriate supplies accessible to you when you're travelling and basic medical skills that can save someone's life.
