Is Ron Collins legit?

Here is Ron's military record. Hmmm, I don't see anything which indicates any anti-terrorist training.

"Is Ron Collins legit?"

I'm not intending to troll, but is that really a serious question? Sometimes you can judge a book by it's cover and this cover looks just like those Ashida Kim books I used to read when I was a teenager.

So far everything I have seen about and/or from Mr. Collins has been nothing but "blah blah blah" talking. Or a still photograph of him in some stance. It's my personal opinion that a self-proclaimed martial artist..if he decides to put something out on the internet...should show more action and less talking. So far I have seen zip.

Well, some of this was culled from another MABS thread from 2004. I decided to clean up this thread a bit and add the new posts from 2011 per a discussion and new evidence.

Thanks to Sam of course.

You should see the hundred screenshots of Ron's internet posts Phil has on his Word Press server.

Ron Collins AKA Draven Azropht is quite the forum decorator.

Ahhh..the classic "gun back-hand forward" stance...wtf??

Proof that the "modern infantryman" isn't necessarily highly skilled with a handgun.

No offense to any infantry types here, but there is no way in hell that an 11B10 with what looks like 3 years of active duty experience knows anything about terrorism based on their military training. Ronny-boy needs to do a lot better to prove he has any kind of expertise on the subject.

Edit: Hell, from the crap coming out of his mouth I don't think he even understand the difference between anti-terrorism and counter-terrorism. Civilian counter-terrorism my ass.

I did one search on "Draven Azropht" and found this gem of a thread...

The sheer amount of misinformation this guy spouts is staggering.

Apparently Phil has seen this thread and doesn't like the comments in it so I issue a retraction

**ronin7411** · Posted On: 1/12/2012 2:13pm

Also Phil Elmore has requested that post 42 be removed because in his eyes it contains false information in it as well. I would of done it myself to save everyone time but I can't find a way to the delete the post so its up to you guys.
