Force on Force Training With Trident Response
About this video
Colion shares his experience participating in a simunition-based home defense training course with Trident Response Group, led by instructor Clint Bruce. He walks viewers through several force-on-force scenarios where he navigates a home invasion situation under stress, demonstrating how training under pressure reveals the gap between range shooting and real defensive skills. Colion reflects on lessons learned about instinctive shooting, decision-making under chaos, and the importance of repetitive training to build defensive readiness.
Key takeaways
- Colion emphasizes that being a shooting enthusiast differs from having real defensive skills — scenario-based training bridges that gap
- According to Colion, under stress you don’t aim carefully; you rely on instinctive point shooting and revert to fundamentals from repetitive training
- Colion teaches that readiness is not about constant vigilance but about increasing your ‘speed to ready’ — how quickly you can shift from normal to defensive mode
