sims are night and day difference from paintball. it is about as close to a real engagement as you can get for sure. when you move to a new state man the majority have good training centers for the most part. take a look at xe or just google up blackwater courses man. they are not to bad expensive and the training is top notch as long as you check the instructors bio. good school house for sure in the mid lantic region

We regularly get good trainers out here, but they all have to travel. We have a couple ranges within a couple hours that do a good job of keeping good trainers showing up. My favorite so far was Jason Falla of redback one. I would like to take all there classe from pistol through precision rifle. Their motto is: subconscious weapons manipulation cold and on demand. He was probably my favorite trainer.

training has become huge, and part of the problem is some guys go get NRA certified to teach a class. That know less than you. So you really have to check out who your training with.

I have been able to shoot a handful of simunitions, but just at steel. I just wish as a civilian I could regularly buy them. I have only seen them for sale once in a blue moon, and usually its just the rounds.
