This series of DVDs should not be labeled "Advanced." This information is the basics of what you should know for self-defense shooting. There is some good information, but this could have been done in 1 or 2 DVDs instead of 5. It appears there was not clear plan on what to do. The production quality is poor. The summary after each lesson is GOOD and covers the important parts.
There should have been more detail and examples. For example; they talk about shooting through the windows of a car (not in first DVD). They never show this. I want to see the effects.
Many times the 3 men take turns shooting. I get the point from 1! There is far too much redundancy. After all, this is a DVD and can be rewound if needed.
They talk about moving during shooting is important. Then later they shoot 3 targets standing still. It is important to practice what you should do but they are too involved in showing how great they are standing still and shooting!
There are too many shortcomings of this series of DVDs. Maybe all the DVDs are like this.
The main item you get from this video is that if you have to use your gun, even in self defense, your troubles could just be starting. Good discussion on this topic.
Other then that Mr. Wilson's posture is annoying and distracting
