REX APPLEGATE: THE LOST TAPES

Col. Rex Applegate reviews his training with Fairbairn, discusses training methods of close quarter combat knife fighting and combat pistol point shooting. His training his derived from the Fairbairn Sykes method and he discusses how this all led to the design and various development of the Applegate Fairbairn Combat Dagger.

This was a private collaborative project shot on VHS back in 1992. It sat in Pat Cascio's archive, until at long last it was made available to the public by Paladin Press. It is about an hour and forty minutes long, and is packed with history and Applegate's instruction on the use of the handgun as well as the knife. If you respect Col. Applegate's vast experience and are a student of close combat, I urge you to pick up a copy of this. The cost is reasonable, and you will learn from one of the legends of close quarter battle..

This DVD is of nice historical background. I bought it for that reason. It shows Applegate recounting how things were done back in the days as well as clips of drills etc...

A gift for my son, He said that he wanted to know where I found it. He had been looking for them , He was pleased, which made me pleased,

Great to see the famous Rex Applegate and listen to what he has to say. I really enjoyed it.

Good dvd

Enjoyable
