I, to, am very cautious about who I receive my training from, and I thank you for taking the time to read this. By just being at  this website it is obvious that you have heard of IPDSystems or Center Axis Relock  (Military and Law Enforcement only) and want to learn more about this type of training and how it will make you as safe as possible during a confrontation with an adversary.  If you are at this page you are already intrigued by IPDSystems and Center Axis Relock from reading about it on my "What is IPDS" page, reading about it on the various internet tactical forums, or from an actual operator who has been through the training.  Before taking the plunge to sign up for a class, though, it is important to know who will be training you or your loved one......

My name is Bryn Reynolds and I am based in the Saratoga, NY area. I work in law enforcement full-time and am fortunate to have served my fellow members as a Sergeant for the last decade.  I currently hold the rank of Captain, and I am especially proud to be able to serve as my agency's Special Weapon And Tactics Team Commander.  I love training and conducting real-world missions with my team and am proud to say that all are Certified Center Axis Relock Operators.  You may meet some of them as my Assistant Instructors / Range Safety Officers if you attend one of my training sessions. 

I am also fortunate to serve as a Regional Director for the
NY Tactical Officer's Association (NYTOA) and help shape the training programs that SWAT Operators across the state participate in.

SAFETY is our number one goal during all IPDSystems / C.A.R. training sessions. If I deem necessary due to class size I may utilize additional Assistant Instructors / Range Safety Officers. Rest assured, all are fully certified C.A.R. Operators or NYS Law Enforcement Certified Firearms Instructors. All have law enforcement and/or military experience and are current/former members of Special Weapons And Tactics teams or high-speed military units.  If any unforseen medical emergencies or injuries arise during our training all have been trained in emergency trauma medicine.  Life-saving trauma gear is always on site.  Many of our instructors have utilized this training in real-world situations, both here at home and overseas......

I have also been a member of the Army & Army National Guard
(MOS 19Delta: Cavalry Scout) for almost 20 years. I am fortunate to have received, and currently provide,  extensive training in Close Quarters Combat and it has served me well during tours In Operation Desert Shield, Operation Desert Storm, and Operation Iraqi Freedom. 

I very much look forward to training with you.
