I always enjoy watching someone’s idea of how they do things and although I wouldn’t completely change my way I might add some of what it shown to see it works for me. Not sure if he is just pocketing empty mags during practice but I can honestly say if I’m ever in a gun fight that empty is hitting the ground so I can focus all my attention on a fresh/full magazine.

Depends. Tactical reload, the mag goes in a dump pouch or a separate pocket.

I trained to bring the fresh mag up before removing the depleted one and performing the exchange there at the gun, like he did in his second example. Of course, this is unlikely to be necessary for the average armed citizen, if they are carrying something with 15 rounds or so.
But, if you're carrying a little .380 with only 7 rounds (like I do sometimes), there's a good chance you could shoot at least 4 or 5 times. The bad guy may be down, but is he out? Or he may have run out the door, or around the corner, but will he come back? Are there more bad guys? Is the fight truly over? You can't know, and you don't want to resume the fight with only 2 or 3 rounds in your gun. So stay in a safe spot (or get to one) and top off using this skill, retaining those few spare rounds just in case.
That's why I think it's a good idea to carry a spare mag(s) and practice this skill.
Thanks for the video, Talyn.

My link goes straight to the Suarez Vimeo video as described above, as others above have reported.
The issue appears to be on your end.

well, it gives me an "overlay" of the site, i can see the site, i can see the guy in the garage, but i cannot continue, and i cannot do a darned thing, so i have to exit.
i dunno.
Talyn

To view the video just click the > on the screen in the lower left of the garage scene.
You don't have to login or go anywhere else.

if you mean the "play arrow button", as i said, there is an overlay to the screen, sorta like a light gray overlay. i can see everything, but it will not allow me to do anything, except exit out. i'd give you a screenshot, but then my information in the upper top right corner would be known. such as name, email address.
Talyn
SAINT
Yes, the play button, but it seems you have something else going on with your system based on your description.
I don't know what that could be & don't want anything in case you have some malware/corruption in your system.
So, I'd just forget about watching the video.
Hope you find out what's going on.

Hi,
The first thing I would try would be to clear your entire browser cache. Keep in mind that this will delete all cookies, history, saved passwords, website customizations, etc. It will not delete saved bookmarks. Chances are good this will clear the error. If not...

www.trendmicro.com
You'll click the red "Windows/Mac" button, download a small utility file, and run it with administrator rights. You can scan your whole hard drive or just let it scan the most commonly affected areas of your sytem.
Trend Micro also has a Mac utility if you swing that way. Otherwise, here is a more Mac-specific procedure:

i tried each "button", but then it takes me to a foreign language BS page.
frankly, if i have to continue pursuing this, my life expectancy will be cut by 27 years.
so screw it, there was an "active shooter" guy that does videos, (this guy, i watch many of his videos)
