Understanding the why behind the techniques will help a person learn to do and execute precisely and consistently. Firearms and shooting have always been a passion for me – from competitive or practical to hobby and everyday carry purposes – being able to share this information in a clear and concise way is important to me. There are millions on new gun owners who need the fundamental skills to learn the gun, how to safely use their firearm if they choose to have one for personal every day carry or home defense.” – Ernest Langdon, President of Langdon Tactical Technology, Inc.
