.. .. .. .. . CSAT, LLC NOVEMBER 2010 INFORMATION LETTER/UPDATE: MAJOR CALENDAR CHANGES: Added: Law Enforcement SEE NEW CALENDAR Added: Civilian SEE NEW CALENDAR GENERAL INFORMATION: Also, thanks to all you who visit my web site. In early September, we went over 100,000 hits for the website for this past year. I appreciate your help and support. Leadership and Training For the Fight/The Tactical Trainer Skyhorse Publishing has just picked up both books for editing and publication into one package and it will be available spring 2011. MONTHLY INSPIRITATION PREPARE TO VOTE…… I want to take a few lines and describe my view of the current political situation and parties prior to this vote. The term Democrats and Liberals can be interchanged in my vocabulary. They describe a term that invokes visions of weakness, welfare, and a catering to what is fundamentally wrong with human nature. These types of people subscribe to the belief that you can strengthen a human by giving them handouts versus giving them a hand up or by teaching them to be self-sufficient. Democrats take the easy route versus the hard and cater to a generation who does not work, seeks handouts and ............................ .. .. .. .. prefer to be given money and not earn it. would . to take care of them at all costs. In fact, they expect the government Americans have elected a typical democrat who has never had a job, but has a lot of “ideas” to the office of President. You can now see what happens first hand when you put one in charge of our nation. He fails to understand economics as he has never had a real job or run a business. He repeatedly fails during foreign policy missions and embarrasses us as a nation. He has never served in the military and does not understand what has secured our nation and allowed it to survive and prosper through its short history. He apologizes to any and all that would hear it. Unlike the Tea Party evolving out of the Republican Party, Democrats have become stagnant with generations of handouts, relying on a self-serving welfare society as a voting base. Promoting this type of American will crush our society and way of life. Individuals like Jesse Jackson and Al Sharpton have profited off of keeping black Americans down instead of raising them up. Further, our president has come from one of the most corrupt political machines in the world. He has not proved his citizenship beyond on a reasonable doubt nor has he released college transcripts. We do not know if he went to college under a foreign national status and received financial aid. This is another trademark of the Democratic Party. Milk the system for all it is worth. Take and do not give back…. Democrats and their liberal media attack individuals and families vs. the issues. Now they wish to play fair before the election as to seem “nice” again. Democrats promote open borders in a time where there have been more terrorist attacks in the world than any time in history. Terrorist nations are developing nuclear weapons and we do little to stop them. We now let anyone into this country and do not require identification or documentation. As an American, I have to provide ID when I write a check or using a credit card. Democrats are setting our country up for another 9/11 as they did the first time. Another entity that has failed to evolve is the media. The media promotes the the liberal agenda and the Democratic Party at all costs. The media has become a business and has been bought out by liberals and individuals in the media have become lazy, complacent and have sold their souls for profit. Republicans have also become stagnant, arrogance, calloused and resemble the status quo. This is how the Tea Party movement emerged. When too many voices call loudly for too long, Americans will vote with their feet. I believe this is why the Tea Party has strengthened. The Tea Party invokes the fundamental spirit of America. Certain traits, beliefs and principles do not change and remain constant despite the rapid advances in technology. People are the constant in this equation and if we do not promote ............................ .. .. .. .. strength, candor, honor, etc., all the technology in the world will be useless .as we willresolve, digress into war or chaos. Whichever party succeeds, they need to promote and encourage positive and strong human traits and attributes. In the end, exercise your hard won freedom and vote… COURSE UPDATE(S): We are working on updating our course list and schedule for 2011. My goal is to standardize all my classes and clearly delineate civilian and law enforcement courses. If you have an interest in seeing one presented more often, shoot me a note. I might simply keep track on a dry erase board and plug one in should a time slot come available. TRAINING: I will be adding the Mozambique Drill (2 body/1 Head) to my rifle standard shortly and will look at using 1.75 seconds as the standard. My next Tac Rifle Instructor class will validate this. RANGE UPDATE: Logging is continuing and the 600 is in…. ............................ .. .. .. .. . ............................ .. .. .. .. above area is now 600 yards. We will try and push it to 800 and maybe to The . 1000 on the right side before we are through. The time to do it is now while all the equipment is in place. We will cut the right side of the range out another 25 yards to open the shooting channel up. We will prep it shortly for a replanting with loblolly pines. Should an agency or group wish to rent the facility, feel free to contact us for rates. This includes the ranges, new property, classroom and bunkhouse. CLASSROOM/ LODGE: NO UPDATES AT THIS TIME….. EQUIPMENT: BLACKHEART INTERNATIONAL, LLC. .223 Bolt Gun http://www.bhigear.com/ The above photo is that of a Blackheart International, LLC “BBG Rifle” in .223. In short, the rifle is a shooter. The barrel is a 1/8 and I was using Hornady 75 Grain Match to break in and zero. I set the Jewel trigger at 3 ¾ pounds and I was able to zero it out to 600 yards. The fit and finish of the rifle is incredible. The Owner’s Manual for the rifle is the most detailed work I have seen accompany any rifle. It is a resource in itself. ............................ .. .. .. .. . While cleaning up my zero, I found that pinning the stock to my shoulder and the bean bag at the same time using the “U” notch in the stock enabled me to shoot some ¼” groups at 100 yards. Bottom right is my best group yet. LARUE/VORTEX VIPER 6 X 20 SCOPE UPDATE We used IPSC steel targets hung sideways for the hunting course to replicate animals and how to hold on them thanks to Eric and my neighbor David. ............................ .. .. .. .. . Winds held for about 30 seconds, long enough to get three rounds off with the Larue .223. I was holding one mil-dot to the left for light winds blowing left to right to get this three round group. HUNTING UPDATE: None noted, too much logging going on… READING/MISC. INFORMATION More books stacking up… CLASS PAYMENTS In the future I will request payment in full by either check or Credit Card for classes as I am doing double accounting when I take deposits. IN CLOSING Thanks and we look forward to seeing you all soon. Paul R. Howe ............................
