One Handed Shooting (#8)

[@DTBsoe88]

I appreciate yall putting stuff like this up on youtube. Not all of us can afford top notch instruction on top of inflated prices guns, ammo, and all the fancy kit(holsters, safety equipment, medical, mags, etc).

[@LangdonTactical]

This! This is exactly why we are doing this. With the limited amount of classes Ernest teaches because of all the other time demands, the long waitlists for his classes, and limited resources of many, we wanted to share this information so that people could learn at their own pace and we can help as many firearms owners as possible - from start to finish.

[@Nate1984Mac]

God bless you all for doing so. What an incredible ministry!

[@SnapD24]

It's crazy how much of this stuff translates between self-defense and competition.

[@joshroten3997]

Excellent instruction with focus on Key Points.

[@adrianlouviere7650]

Thanks for the info. on one hand shooting.

[@eddiepereira9628]

Awesome info. Ernest is the GOAT!!!!

[@micfasto8700]

Thanks for the series. Very helpful info both as an instructor and student.

[@blantant]

I can't believe this wealth of knowledge is free on KZbin. This is all great stuff

Excellent content - Will be working on this drill. Thanks for the instructions.

[@LangdonTactical]

Very welcome!

[@savage3960]

Great info for those of us who are unable to take your class right now . I consider you to be at the top of the list when I get the opportunity to take a course. I've seen many here on KZbin teaching pistolcraft, but none better than you Mr. Langdon.

[@robertdunlap5994]

Very informative. The Five Yard Round Up Drill exposes this weakness in my shooting almost every time. Thanks for sharing.

[@Gumby56]

Excellent tutorial, real world info, thank you.

[@2ndchance632]

Thank you for posting this. Extremely helpful. Love your series training videos. Great to see the Tier 1 Concealment taking your training courses. Great group of guys who make outstanding quality holsters.

[@ernestlangdon3075]

Thank you for the kind words and support. We are trying to be helpful to the community.

[@ianscott9396]

Great lesson, well presented this school is on my list to attend.

[@bryanshaw4434]

Your explanations make so much sense. Thanks for taking the time to post this series. Very helpful. Especially the one hand shooting

[@old-veteran]

Good stuff, thanks...

[@jonnsmusich]

Just broke my weak hand thumb. So this is a perfect time to practice your one hand exercises!

[@action3xpress]

Such a pro, love the teaching style as well.

[@LangdonTactical]

Glad you are enjoying it.

[@action3xpress]

@@LangdonTactical Question for you sir. Is there anything in the Safariland lineup that would fit a 92G LTT? I built one similar to the one you sell with a M9A1 frame + LTT RDO slide. Would need: Safariland QLS + ALS x300 + RMR compatibility. Thanks!

[@warfumble]

Great info!

[@curlybill3966]

Thanks!

[@rpnbf8196]

Very helpful. A neglected part of my training

[@LangdonTactical]

Its easy to neglect, but good to practice once in a while.

[@gunsandcommissions]

I appreciate you sharing this. This is a skill I need to get better at. I practice it, but there's definitely room for improvement.

[@eclipsegst9419]

Dad grew up on Westerns, and always told me "its a hand gun not a hands gun!" I shoot single handed almost exclusively. Only if i attempt shooting beyond 50 yards do i bring up the second hand, and it still just feels... wrong.

[@rogerwatson4221]

AWESOME content. I just dislocated my left shoulder so this was very helpful . We have to adapt & train because I refuse to be an easy win

[@onpsxmember]

@Langdon Tactical Video #8 of the video series is lonely and wants to go home to the playlist. That arm alignment/eye alignment brought me back to Brian Zins that gives the eyes priority but the goal is different. The stronger grip makes sense fo retention and for max. recoil control. The hand switching is a golden nugget. Lots of fumbling and danger avoided.

[@LangdonTactical]

LOL! Thank you. Fixed.

[@kilofoxtrotdelta6112]

I've been shot twice in my support arm (left arm)in Iraq, that 💩 really happens. Excellent pointers by the way 👍

[@LangdonTactical]

Wow! Glad you are ok. Thank you so much.

[@GoldAndSilver988]

What if you're right handed but have a bummer right knee due to massive surgery? I have a profound limp everywhere I go; and, no fast movements in any direction.

[@glorifiedg9582]

Good stuff Nobody ever talks about where the bullets actually naturally go The millisecond of click from the trigger and where it goes are two different things Kentucky windage does work

[@ABiblicalView]

#3 You may need to use your off hand to shield a loved one

[@jamessanchez7614]

excellent teaching, keep up the great work.

[@krashdude1]

as you said, "roll that thumb DOWN...increase the grip pressure"" but when using two hands, everyone is taught NOW to rest the thumb on the other thumb joint, against the frame/slide. I realize all the pros shoot that way now. You cannot shoot a revolver that exact way OR one handed that way though. Anatomically. our thumb has little grip strength just pressing sideways...plus once the gun is fired your thumb is then moved off due to recoil. The hand's most powerful grip strength is using the thumb "muscle" against and towards your palm and fingers. Nobody grips a bat using the side of their thumb or tries to control someone's forearm in defense using the side of their thumb. I am in the minority in this thought process, but I use the same strong hand grip for two handed shooting a semi auto, a revolver or any gun one handed.

[@LangdonTactical]

Do what ever works best for you, your hand and your handgun. I believe I give a few options on how to grip the gun with one hand, it is up to you to figure out what gives you the most control.

[@DonPato1911]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@divadwilliam3250]

Interesting find ...I punched in Ernest cowan and you (langdon) popped up. LANGDON is my grandmothers maiden name..lol whats up cousin??

[@wood-wheel-wizard]

I only practice 1 handed. I feel like guns were designed for use with 1 hand. If your able to use both hands, well bless the lawd.

[@alastor8091]

Pistol in one hand, chainsword in the other.

[@bryanbaker5942]

The shoes? Salomon?

[@LangdonTactical]

LOL, Yes.

[@sencremer4927]

Is that a 1911 he's shooting?

[@AnDy.Strong]

Baretta

[@ehteshamy2k]

These tips are not useful for competitive shooting rather misleading.

[@cerberus1994]

What makes you say that?

[@cerberus1994]

What makes you say that?

[@ehteshamy2k]

In precision shooting at 25m, your posture is totally different and is primarily focused on NPA. The style that this trainer is recommending will work in a combat situation at a much shorter distance.
