I understand then need for the rules in the games, and I understand what Yeager is teaching as well.
Simunitions and airsoft grants the ability to practice techniques in a 360 degree atmosphere with people "down range" that you don't want to shoot while presenting no more danger then what it takes to leave a bruise.
I don't buy it. In order for all the students to get "training value" out of the exercise in question, there should be a live person in between every pair of targets. While you're at it, you could give them guns, too:
yeah, but we don't know what they are shooting
So is pointing the muzzle up actually safe?
I don't recall ever being in a situation where it was necessary or even where pointing muzzle up would be preferrable to down.
Reloading on the fly?

I'm not sure that the guy in the video was really scanning. I obviously don't know how TR teaches scanning but it looked like he was just spending a lot of time with his back to the target. Scanning should be a pretty quick process with your head really on a swivel. Did he really need to turn around and stand there for a while?
I don't think he was scanning. He looks like to me that he couldn't believe what was going on. Nobody else is turning around.
I believe he was scanning.
FAST - Fire, Assess, Scan, Top off.
p'raps.... At least I got the FI right, and Fire gives you a similar result...I thought the "F" stood for FIGHT!
