To a degree, absolutely yes. I’ve watched old military classroom videos teaching soldiers how to handle an M16. So, I was able to learn as much as a US soldier learns in the classroom. Certainly, in order to ingrain these lessons you’ve got to spend time on the range - much more than a range class or two. You can be instructed not to put your finger on the trigger until time to shoot a zillion times. But until you spend time on the range spending a lot of effort and concentration to keep that finger off the trigger, a lot of people will unconsciously put that finger right on the trigger as soon as they pick the gun up and point it downrange.

If the US Army puts something out, or the NRA puts something out, or a reputable shooting school puts something out, it probably has some value, that along with good practical range instruction, one can learn from. Problem with YouTube is no QA on what is published, resulting in a lot of wrong or stupid stuff...
