"I cannot believe these things are still out there!!! Can somebody please stop the DVD press! I cannot watch them without wanting to crawl under a rock nearby....

I did this set of videos years ago and simply regret ever doing them. Had little of no control over the content, editing, marketing language (BS), titles etc. I learned my lesson in dealing with snot-nosed producers from the Hollywood area.

We had a company called Combative Concepts (that later dissolved) and wanted to get some marketing momentum....It worked quite well at the time. Later, I became the founding director of a low light training institution called the SureFire Institute. SureFire makes high-speed low-drag lights & laser for law enforcement and military folks.

I have subsequently started a training company called Strategos International, & I promise you, if I do any other videos, they will not be as idiotic as these. We are also teamed with BlackHawk Products Group, forming a division called Night-Ops. We are going to be challenging my former employer in their own domain.

These videos have been selling in one format or another for quite some time. I get ZERO financial gain from them. Saw minimal $$$ initially, but since we did not control the masters...well things happen. Eventually the $$$ were zero & I did not want to waste my time pursuing it. We did not want to really show anything, quite simply because we did not know who was going to eventually get their hands on them.

If you can get them for free from a friend, they might be useful as targets on the range or as mini-Frisbees.

So there is the saga. I have warned you (as have others) don't waste your money.

Respectfully,

"This was nothing more than an advertisement for a couple of ex-SEAL's who started a company. Obviously based on entry techniques, clearing, (etc...) it shows nothing interesting and was a complete waste of money. After the second disk I turned it off, and just gave it to someone. TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT! (for lack of a better printable word)"

"Don't waist your money or time on this. This DVD set is just an over grown advertisment. They used the mystic of the SEALs to push this, and is more of a case of false advertisment than anything else."

I don't see the problem

"I thought this DVD series was ok. I think the knife stuff is good, because they don't pretend to be experts, and the one guys says, "the more I know about the knife, the more I fear it". Damn right ! I am a student of various southeast Asian martial arts systems, and I can tell you, an untrained guy with a knife is a force to be reckoned with, and a guy with training is a real monster. The thing about house clearing is good and demonstrates the dangers faced by police, for example, in trying to clear a house, if, for example, one guy has a knife inside the house. I have about 10 years of martial arts training (kali, silat, boxing, jujitsu, etc.) and I didn't find anything in here to be wild or unrealistic. I think they admitted where they were weak. I also have some handgun training and certification, and I didn't find the handgun stuff weak either. I don't know anything about rifles, so that part I can't judge. The series is not bad, I think cops could learn from it, for example, about house clearing issues !"
