Training With Green Ops: 2-Day LPVO Course (Texas)

A few weeks ago, I had the chance to attend the Green Ops 2-Day LPVO Carbine course at The Ranch in Dilley, Texas south of San Antonio. Although I will not deny my bias in favor of the LPVO and find them both useful and fascinating, I also understand that like with anything else, these scopes have trade-offs. To be successful with LPVOs, it’s crucial to understand their strengths and weaknesses which is why this Green Ops course has been a huge interest of mine. The course is focused on the entire effective range of the modern carbine and its use with an emphasis on the LPVO as the principal aiming implement, from 0 to 500 meters. I felt quite fortunate after finally attending the course and training under keen instructors.

Despite the fact that many of us were running various optic systems with various zeros the instructors took the time to work with the students who were newer to the platform. We then moved into magazine reloads and malfunctions, and followed this with various other live fire drills, including the Green Ops Rifle Standards drill. We took lunch and listened to further light instruction while eating, which I thought made very good use of the time we had. After lunch we moved into more advanced type shooting positions and class competitions. This is where I had the most fun.
