Is 35 Year Old Ammunition Still Good?
Can you imagine purchasing a .38 Special revolver, loading it with 6 rounds of ammunition and putting it on your night stand hoping you never had to use it?
I’m sure you can.
Now imagine that 35 years LATER, having never fired the gun or checked the ammunition, an intruder crashes through your bedroom window in the middle of the night, so you grab your gun, point and press the trigger…
What do you think is going to happen?
See the news story below to find out what happened to a Crest Hill, Illinois man who did exactly that…

Front Sight Leads By Example
I read in my local newspaper yesterday that the Harley Davidson dealer abruptly went out of business. The owner held a meting with his employees and informed them that he was closing the doors permanently that day.
This followed the Volvo dealership closing it’s doors after 25 years.
We also lost the Chevrolet Dealership and no longer have a BMW dealership.
Circuit City, the largest electronics retailer in our county is filing bankruptcy and Mervyn’s, the anchor of the local shopping mall, is holding a “Going out of
Business Sale.”
If you read the newspapers, you know that Ford and…

Re-evaluation of Gun Training Reports and Front Sight Legacy DVD
Dr. Piazza,
I had logged on to the site some time before and began receiving the reports but stopped reading them after a while.
I didn’t feel like I could afford to become involved though what was presented was exactly what I was interested in achieving.
I was so impressed with the information that I came back to the site recently and began receiving the reports again and this time opted to receive the DVD, which I did not take the advantage of receiving the first time.
After watching the DVD this weekend and looking over the reports once more,…

1.5 Seconds to Live or Die
I’m often told by people who attend Front Sight that the Color Code of Mental Awareness we teach is worth the cost of the course alone and all the firing range training is simply a bonus.
I’m also asked by people who have not yet attended a course at Front Sight why we spend so much time on the range perfecting the presentation of your weapon from a concealment holster so you can fire two sighted shots to the center of mass of an attacker at a range of 5 yards in less than 1.5 seconds.
Here is a gruesome…

Law Enforcement Response
Dr. Piazza,
As a law enforcement officer I am extremely supportive of the work that Frontsight is doing in the fight for our Second Amendment freedom!
I often refer people I meet in the course of my duties, that feel victimized by their situation to your school.
I have seen a few of those individuals actually take up your offers on my recommendation.
All of them have returned here, to California, with a new sense of confidence and hope for their futures.
I believe that is a very noble accomplishment of the Front Sight program.
Sincerely,
Devin M.
CA Police…

Patriotism
Dr. Piazza,
Thank you for your internet reports.
I am a former airline Captain and volunteer Federal Officer. I am a true believer in the values that you espouse.
Often times, I hear my own voice echoed in your sentiments and am glad that a person of your caliber has picked up the gauntlet of personal freedom and liberty.
You, sir, are the definition of patriot.
Fight the good fight and never give up or give in.
In Unity,
Jim R.

Thank you so much for sending these reports out.
I have found them helpful to my shooting skills and I share them with all my family.
I am a long time shooter and gun nut and would love to be able to come to Front Sight training in the future.
Thanks again

The Life Cycle of a Nation
Our Founding Fathers were collectively the brightest, wealthiest, and most powerful men of their era. They risked everything they had by declaring their independence from what was, at that time, the greatest military and economic power in the world.
Quite frankly, we have not had such intellect, innovation, and “testicular fortitude” at the helm of our country since then, and I believe will never see men of such strong backbone in our government again.
Just over 200 years later, England is a shadow of its past world dominance and the United States has fallen so far away from the country…

Enjoying Gun Training
Dear Dr. Piazza,
I’d like to confirm that I am receiving - and enjoying - the 30 Training Reports from the Front Sight Newsletter. I just read the 7th report, and am eagerly awaiting the 8th. The reports are very interesting and helpful, and I would love nothing better to actually be able to attend a course at Front Sight.
I received your DVD a few days ago, and was surprised to learn about the battle over gun control. I new a little about it before, but after watching Front Sight Story, Chapter One: You’re Legacy, I was amazed to…
