I considered Pat a great friend. Back in the 1990's when i thought i was a hot shot nypd firearms instructor i met Pat who taught me everything from room entries to rappelling from buildings. We sqauded together quite often at high power rifle matches and he was such a wealth of information. I'll never forget the weekend we spent at Quantico Va. shooting eastern regional high power matches. Pat took 2nd place service rifle and i took 2nd place match rifle. we had a lot of laughs all the way home back to NY. I will never forget him. He taught me the real firearms and tactics necessary for police and contractors. Through the years i lost tract of Pat as I moved to Texas and he moved on with his life. Rest in peace Pat, i can never thank you enough.
A fine tribute to a man that spent his adult lifetime in service to his nation and it's citizenry. Sadly never got the chance to train with Pat, were it not for the videos he participated in his knowledge and experience would be largely lost to many of us. Rest easy, Pat.
So the other night I watched a T.Rex Arms video were they bring a guy from Japan who traines with air soft and has never shot a real gun before... It was awesome how great he was. Crazy thing is that today I was thinking about Pat a lot so I pulled up this video I never finished and it went right into cross training with air soft.
Thank you sir! I often wondered if I was the only one to clean their firearms to pass a Q tip inspection. Guess it's just a bad habit from being a Marine. Now I won't be so fussy.
Pat is awesome. Only "mistake" which I think was just a slight and common error was MOA scaling. He said a 4MOA gun is 4" at 100yds and 8" at 50yds which is incorrect. 4MOA at 50yds is 2"

RIP Pat Rogers! Today was a great Sunday Gun Day with two of my daughters. I thought about you several times.
Thank you for sharing this.
31:15 - And here we are in 2020 with our current ammo situation. Wow.
Pat was as solid as they come. Until that day, my friend!
Brother Pat: You are still missed.
Still.

Rest easy, Pat.

I saw him at the show. He was hanging out at the 3gun air-soft course when my kids were shooting it.
Thank you sir!

We all know what he meant....🤦🏻♂️
But, thanks for the math lesson.
Yup. AR-15 production also started in 1959, but the first military contract to the USAF was May, 1962.
