Instead of using wood and metal models, the soldier of the future will train in a virtual reality world that essentially mixes “Call of Duty” with “Star Trek’s” holodeck. Such immersion offers more flexibility compared to live training exercises based on physical mock-ups that can’t replicate the danger of live bullets or artillery explosions, said John Foster, assistant project manager for the U.S. Army’s Close Combat Tactical Trainer. It also delivers a more realistic training experience compared with the Army’s existing game simulations, where soldiers use a keyboard and a mouse on a computer.

“‘Dismounted Soldier’ is going to put the soldier in a virtual environment with a replica of his weapon in his hands, so that he can go through all the same motions as in real life,” Foster told InnovationNewsDaily.

Press Release

Introducing the Tactical .22 Autoloading Rimfires by Mossberg International

North Haven, CT â€“ Mossberg International introduces the Tactical .22–an alternative firearm for those shooters and enthusiasts who want the look and feel of an AR-style .22 rimfire with an affordable price. With the rising costs of centerfire ammunition, the new Tactical .22 rimfires are a great choice for recreational shooters, as well as those searching for a cost-effective training platform.

The lightweight and fast-handling Tactical .22 parallels the look and feel of todayâ€™s AR-style rifle while being built around Mossberg Internationalâ€™s reliable .22 autoloader. Taking cues from their proven 702 autoloader, the Tactical .22 matches an 18â€ barrel to a quad rail forend allowing the operator to fit the rifle with lights, lasers or other tactical accessories. Two stock configurations will be offered in this series: a six-position adjustable and fixed stock. The six-position polymer stock adjusts the length of pull from 10-3/4â€ â€“ 14.5â€ accommodating youth and smaller framed shooters up to adults. The fixed position stock has a standard 13â€ LOP. The Tactical .22 is integrated with an A2-style carry handle and an adjustable rear sight aligned with a front post sight. The Picatinny handle mount is included, allowing versatility in scopes and other optics while providing the clearance necessary to utilize the AR-style sights. Other features included with the Tactical .22 are sling mounts and a ten round magazine.

MSRP: $276

M-22 stress testing

Posted by Jack Sinclair in News, Training, Training Tools on 3/Aug/2010 19:00

“Following in the best time honored Carteach0 tradition of monkey curiosity coupled with the destructive ability of a small boy, testing of the ISSC M-22 continues. This time, a torture test involving a big stack of rimfire ammunition, and the noticeable lack of a cleaning kit. 500 rounds of function testing in one range visit, without cleaning.

Overall impressions of the M-22’s function during the extended run? Pretty good. Not perfect, and not flawless, but better than most other .22 autos might have done. In fact, better than any other .22 pistol in the Carteach0 armory just now. It’s entirely possible a quick shot of CLP every few hundred rounds, with a cursory wipe down, might be all that’s needed to keep the pistol chugging along like Thomas the Train.”

Step up your workout with USMC Running Cadence MP3s

Posted by Jack Sinclair in Training, Training Tools on 25/Jun/2010 02:39

From by John P:

“I recently acquired a bad ass treadmill as part of an effort to get back in shape (more on that later), and I went searching for some USMC cadence MP3s to listen to while I run. They were harder to find than I thought they would be, so I figured I would share them here in case anyone would like to hear them.

These work songs are sung while a platoon is running in formation and let me tell you â€“ they are motivational. When you hear 80 sets of boots pounding the ground in unison while 80 Marines sing cadence it is a site to behold.“
