On Training. On Training, #1

Former naval officer and certified law enforcement firearms instructor Dustin Salomon has spent years advocating for major structural changes in firearms, use-of-force, and other tactical training. In this edited collection of essays, he tears away the curtain and shines an illuminating light into the dark recesses of this often discussed, but little understood, industry. On Training exposes a series of serious, structural flaws that have plagued military, law enforcement, and security training for decades.
The book's primary focus is on the armed professions; however, it will benefit trainers in any firearms discipline, as well as those in other vocations that require skillful performance and expert decision-making in high consequence settings. This is also a must read for anyone who wants to understand the underlying issues that lead to substandard police performance and excessive use-of-force, as well as a clear path forward to fix them.
