I have 3 main guns: Sig Sauer P226 sao Legion (9mm), Sig Sauer Max Michel (45acp) and CZ Shadow 2 (9mm). The CZ is my competition-gun. Max Michel is my fun-to-do-IPSC-gun. Would you recommend dry-fire-practice with all of them (I do grip them differently) or just focus on the competitiongun??

Problem is the fatter you make the grip to give more space for your support hand, the more space your index finger must cover to get to the trigger.
@ferrisarrafisilitonga509710 күн бұрын
There's an idea that you only get the fatter grip on one side (your support hand's) and keep your firing hand's grip thin. I know of one shop that offers this option.

I completely agree-I shoot all my pistols like double action revolvers. Roll through the trigger. Completely release the trigger. Repeat as necessary. For me, this is faster, way simpler and much more accurate than trying to prep the trigger, add initial pressure, then build pressure to a surprise break. I tried it bullseye style for years and pulled everything low left. Not anymore! Great video. Very useful. Thanks for sharing.

Never experienced this until I started competing w glock about 6 months ago. Agree it’s a grip thing, I’ve been experimenting with different triggers, beaver tails etc to find the right feel,but right now my grip overall is appallingly bad, with a few trigger freezes and shitty hits as results. Am going to give it a few thousand rounds more and see if I start to get a grip on things (pun intended)

That fast sprint from left to right would get you DQ'd in many matches around here. They'd consider it 'breaking the 180'.

Red dot, irons and a laser sight grip. Backup pistol in an ankle holster. Neck chain knife under my shirt. That's my minimum for around the house. Add an IWB holster with another semi auto plus a patrol rifle when I go out. Never know what you will need. Be safe.

In a real gunfight where you use a pistol you are probably not gonna use any sights at all. It will all be instinctive point shooting. A buddy of mine hits steel at 100 yards with his pistol without any sights

Why don't manufacturers offer more frontstrap options? I tend to have the problem of my fingers being long enough to interfere with my support hand real estate, but my trigger finger isn't long enouh to reach the trigger. Bigger backstraps solve one problem, but make the other problem worse.

Started with a red dot first two guns. And my third gun with iron sights. Try to be target focused in both. Iron is good for me up to 25 yards. After that red dot only works so far. Then there is having to change glasses. For 25 - 50 yards. It is all an interesting learning experience. Takes time, patience and motivation....And your outstanding videos.

The "Mental Game". This is the hard part.
@redsdot4 ай бұрын
Agreed. That's one of the reasons I started a podcast on the mental game of the shooting sports. My cohost and I have spent many years looking at all sorts of aspects and techniques. There is so much there. Often times those mental aspects are simple in principal and often difficult in practice.

100 percent changed my shooting when my ccw instructor relaxed my shoulders stood me up slightly and bent my elbows and pulled my gun in more natural closer to my chest. I was like who the fuck taught me shoot the other way?!?😂 This is the way brother.

It's hard for me to keep my shoulders in a natural position. My eyes are too high or my neck is too long or something
@tororosso7046Ай бұрын
I recently learned this after many years of shooting and USPSA comps. I was very rigid and gripping tight, trying to tame the muzzle flip. As soon as I relaxed my shoulders, back, and elbows, while maintaining tension in my wrists and obviously my grip, the gun became very flat.

It is not about feet, but about hips keeping square all the time so feet will not lift the upper body (no model walk on runway that most of people are used to more or less). I practice this walk for miles in NYC to work. It is known also to some military (but how would one know). Right... advice from "wannabee" called by Ben one time, but person who would spent a lot of time in other sports including hand to hand combat martial arts staring as es teenager many decades ago.

@pistolwizardATX6 ай бұрын
Get Dryfire Reloaded if you feel stuck at all on dry fire. There's a lot in there that is not in Practical Shooting Training. I'd only get Skills and Drills Reloaded once you feel like you've gotten all you can out of Practical Shooting Training. There's some overlap.
