Summary
Topic: Top Shot Secrets with Chris Cerino
Today Riley talks with Chris Cerino, 2-time runner-up in History Channel’s Top Shot series, together with new guest host, Joshua Gillem. Chris is a well-respected, long-time firearms instructor and trainer. He has some unique but common-sense ways of teaching shooters about the fundamentals of shooting. Recently, ConcealedCarry.com’s Managing Editor, Josh Gillem, attended the Combat Pistol course taught by Chris Cerino, and we spend a bit of time talking about the course, how shooters can benefit from attending, and also about Chris’s teaching philosophies and methodologies including the “Cone of Knowledge.” Chris will also be joining us for a more in-depth Q&A session as part of our monthly Guardian Nation LIVE event for December. It will be on December 20th at 7:00 pm MST/9:00 pm EST. To attend this live event, you must be a member of Guardian Nation. Learn more at: www.guardiannation.com.
