No one is infallible, except for me, but I agree with Ayoob in this case.

I certainly wouldn't seriously take his advice on a hairpiece.

I think Kyle Rittenhouse has more gunfight experience than "mas" does.

I agreed with his statements in the above clip. I sometimes agree and sometimes disagree with him.
I remember reading an article by Ayoob several years back in which he recommended carrying an absurd number of weapons and spare mags, flashlights, pepper spray ect for what I consider to be way over the top daily carry.

Any time AyBoob says something accurate, you can rest assured he learned it from somebody else.

I like his articles, and have read several of his books. No expert is perfect, but I find his writings and videos informative.

He's weird, but he knows his stuff. Been studying, compiling data from shootouts most of his adult life.
I don't know where or who to get better data from.

Wiki says his nickname is "the badass of self defense." So there ya go.

I would bet that Ayoob knows more about self defense than anyone here. He has testified in court many times on the use of deadly force and taught many many police officers about the laws dealing with self defense.
The more I get to know people, the better I like dogs, life is short, eat dessert first.

I stopped by Ray Chapman's place in Hallsville, MO, one time, and it happened to be when Ayoob was teaching a class to some Marines. He didn't want me around (I might learn his "secrets" or something). I was already a pretty fair IPSC shooter, so I moved on, but it kinda struck me that he was a "Legend in his own Mind", especially when I checked his classification scores with USPSA. He was in the same class I was (B), and my averages were better than his. He might have some experience in court, but he was just another shooter from then on, to me at least. He's certainly an arrogant little prick.

I like Mas. May not agree with everything but that's OK too.
Bangflop! another skinning job due to .260 and proper shot placement.

Pretty sure his law enforcement credentials are mostly honorary. He was a reserve officer for some small town and in charge of training.
