Professional Self-Defense An indispensable reference to Israeli Martial Arts Major Avi Nardia, a leading official instructors for the Israeli army and police forces in the field of counter-terrorism and CQB, and Ben Krajmalnik, have made a new DVD on basic firearms and safety, and training techniques derived from The Instinctive Combat Shooting (IPSC). IPSC is a shooting method based on instinctive and cinematic reactions to shoot in short distances in fast and dynamic situations. A discipline of self-defense to survive in a life threat situation, where high speed and accuracy are required and you have to pull out the gun and shoot at a short distance, without using the scope. In this first volume we will study: handling the weapon (revolver and semiautomatic); practice of dry firing and safety; "Point Shooting" or instinctive shooting in short distance and movement; gun retention exercises under stress and multiple attackers; gun loading exercises, with charger, with one hand ... and finally gallery practice with pistols, AK-74 and M-4 rifles, M-249 machine gun and even M-16 grenade launcher. Avi Nardia is also a scholar of traditional styles and mentor and coach of special groups in several countries; he spends his life traveling and giving seminars; lately he's been working with the tribes of Northern Canada.
