VIDEOS: Three from Pat McNamara

Here are three great (and short!) videos I came across from Pat McNamara, aka the King of Badassery (if you don’t know his resume, I highly recommend watching this video from Jocko’s podcast). He spent 22 years in Special Operations and now has his own training company alongside a few books, like Sentinel and T.A.P.S.
We have previously posted some other videos of his which can be found linked below:

      While you’re at it you can learn some proper grammar and punctuation.

    I do not believe I have seen/heard of him before,watched a couple of the shorter ones(safety /mag change a good one).
    I will say the guy has a lot of energy and seems to like what he does,will watch some others later in the evening.

    Gun on safe on mag change.
    Hahahahah i just got back from Front Sight and I caught hell for putting my AR on SAFE all the time!!! Can you say SQUARE RANGE mentality? Oh and competition shooting/split time? So funny to hear Pat mention this. Did I use the technique they were teaching? Hell no!!! My safety went onl like I always do, hey after 32 years in the Cavalry why change. I did have several visiting instructors try to correct me and my range master would say, “leave the colonel alone” is what I would hear.
    Oh and Front Sight does not understand What RANGE WALK is. The class burned through loads of time strolling.

    I pay attention to his videos, have purchased his DVD’s, and one course. Referred back to all of the material over the years and use most of it daily. Safety is always a FREAKIN’ MUST. Follow Pat’s instruction when driving and on the manner of parking. Think fast egress in mind. Just back in your slot, its easier & faster egress.
    Oh and the fuel tank. Damn straight. The 1/2 mark better be your new empty. I have watched people on I-81 run out of fuel for just a hour of sitting in traffic. Once was in a January heavy snow. People without even a coat and proper shoes…STOOOPID!!!
    Non of us will ever live long enough to acquire all the experience you need. So benefit from those willing to impart theirs. No better teacher than those with the experience. Just like NC Scout…pay attention…it is all good.

    There’s guys out there that can enhance your ability to shoot paper, and there’s guys out there that can enhance your ability to stay alive. Tmac definitely falls in the later category. So does Steve Reichert. I’d love to attend either class. Reichert has some insane pistol classes. He also has nothing good to say about Front Sight. Which Front Sight does not appreciate. TMac also did this video, which I laugh my ass off every time I watch it. Because I se this at the range all the time.

      I love when he does the range theatrics videos! He did another one as well and it was hilarious to watch.

      I agree – Steve Reichert is another dude that I would love to train with.

      • Brad January 27, 2021 at 22:04

        I had not seen that one. The guys hilarious. “Your life tied to your gun, your gun should go with.” How common sense is that. And all of us here were probably thinking that as guys like Rob Pinkus were teaching otherwise. On another note, TMacs wife is freaken hilarious. She can do impression like you wouldn’t believe. I follow both on IG. Classy lady. Another guy that knows his shit is Mike Seeklander.

        • Patriotman January 28, 2021 at 06:14

          I have heard of Seeklander but not close enough. I will have to check it out.
          Yeah his wife seems awesome! They got a pretty good fireteam there.

          • Brad January 28, 2021 at 23:13

            A fun fact, Seeklander’s bro inlaw is the Montana guy that got attacked not once, but twice by the same Grizzly Bear, and then drove himself to the hospital.
