Conceal and Carry. :roll: When will they get it right?
Either way a good spot on the news. Gander should see an increase in business, that's for sure.

FWIW........

Opening scene woman is shooting right handed using left eye........cross eye dominant. Is she or instructor aware of it?

Might be.

With pistols I tell people to shoot using the dominant eye and whichever handedness feels most comfortable.

First thing that jumped out at me is they were in the simulator that doesn't have real guns. The way the reporter was holding that gun was like a toy, no real recoil.

When the CO2 cartridges are full there is good, felt recoil.

One would hope, but irregardless the recoil and impulse is not the same as an actual cartridge firing. Maybe they should add a stressvest to their lasertag simulator. http://www.stressvest.com/stressvest_line.html
