First, I love that football field range.
Second, I love what he says about getting away from vehicles in a fight. The booger-eaters use the vehicle to index and range, I recall one instructor told me if you have to get out, get away.
"Don't give up your feet in a gunfight." Good stuff.

One of the vehicles in my work fleet was stolen and recovered with a .40 hole through the driver's door. I showed it to my boss and pointed out the while vehicles provide concealment they usually offer poor cover. He was amazed to see that a bullet went through the inner and outer door skins because they don't do that in the movies!
Side to side is one thing, hood to trunk or trunk to hood is a very different story
Of course, but most people think of using a car for cover on the door or fender side. When I worked for a PD fleet, the cars had Kevlar panels in the doors
