How to Improve Handgun Shooting Accuracy

[@mangoman8057]

Man let me just tell you, I have been looking all day for a video that is perfect to send to my mother. I’m talking everyone with a million subscribers and 100k likes. All 30 minute videos. They all skip the basics. Yet say the video is about basics. After almost a full day of looking, Bam a 7 year old video that’s only 5 minutes and hits on exactly everything it needs to. You deserve more subscribers man.

@@BoomStickTactical I managed to get myself a .44 Magnum Desert Eagle earlier this year (back in March, actually) as an early 41st birthday present to myself, and it's bloody awesome to shoot. So with that said, the Weaver Stance actually does help out alot with managing the gun's recoil while having the tight grip.

[@whenmountainsmove]

This video helped me in so many ways as a novice shooter. Especially when you wrap your other hand completely around the hand that is on the pistol. That helped stabilize the gun so much and I was definitely struggling to hit the target and it’s definitely because I was not having my finger on the trigger like you explained it correctly. It was always heading to the right. You’ve help me nail down some key elements here. Thank you so much.

[@82luft49]

Excellent video, BroomStick Tactical. One of the better handgun accuracy demonstrations on KZbin. So in other words, the only sight picture I should see while lined up on the center of the target is a fuzzy rear sight, a fuzzy bull's eye, but a clear front sight which I haven't been doing. Great lesson. I subscribed.

[@BoomStickTactical]

+82 Luft glad to have you on board. The more you practice focusing on the front sight the faster you will start sighting. Thanks for watching

[@leonardpearlman4017]

That's a tough one! You really have to decide. If I get a good solid look at the front sight, the target itself is just kind of a rumor... it seems to work somehow. I can see WHY people would have optics or lasers, but I haven't done that yet except for dry-fire practice. I love the idea of the sights being projected ON to the target basically. Then everything is in one plane, and you can at least see it. You still have to do all the other stuff!

[@Inverted1100]

About the focus part. I’ve been told to focus on the front sight, like you said, when using just one eye aiming. When you get used to having both eyes open, you focus on the target

[@BoomStickTactical]

Focus on the front sight until the threat is over. You're accuracy will be much better.

[@alexisshannon1580]

[@Gitfidlpickr]

This is one of the best videos I have seen on the anatomy of pistol shot and especially the weaver and isosceles stance. Many say the words but cannot actually tell how to do it. The discussion of the finger on the trigger is excellent (too far, not enough, best) and of sight alignment. So there are all the elements of a good pistol shot: grip. stance, sight alignment and trigger (add breath control .. stop breathing as you align the sights) . This is the Olympic profile .. but to become an Olympian you must master all of them ..with this video you know HOW .. so get to work. (and join NRA)

[@BoomStickTactical]

+Gitfidlpickr thanks for watching

[@esmith9005]

@@BoomStickTactical I agree. And as far as weaver or modified weaver, the simple fact is non law enforcement is more likely to be in more close quarters and less likely to be in a extended longer range gun fight with lots of lateral movement (where an isosceles might be better). Non LEO is more likely to actually be physically contacted with the assailant, where a weaver or modified weaver is plainly a better stance to be in due to strong leg back and weak arm for pushback stability

[@peekaboo5925]

That's ok for double action. But single action use the pad if you can. I've caught myself yanking the trigger and hitting left, I think that's common too. Takes some work to be accurate, good thing it's fun.

Thanks for the Tips. Pushing w/ Trigger Hand and Pulling w/ Support Hand does Work. It Limits Side to Side Movement. And i am going to practice keeping the Front Sight in Focus. Heck Yah. I have been shooting with Fuzzy Sights. I calibrated the sights on my NEW 92FS myself. 3 different gunshops told me it was 'me' and not the Gun. Only an actual Gunsmith Believed Me. I ordered the Rear Sight Adjustment Tool and went to the Range. After 15 rds. I had it Nailin the Bullseye at 25ft.....

[@BoomStickTactical]

Great to hear. The sights can have a big impact and if they're not lined up correctly your shots will not be on. And sometimes replacing them can also help. Thanks for watching.

[@Yoski1337]

I first started on 10 inch steel targets at a distance of 30-35 yards. Silly how I used to think it was horrible scoring 6 out of 10 shots on average from that range until I realized some people's group placement on door sized targets were far worse at closer range. I realized then that it wasn't about making steel go "ding" just to look good, it was about true accuracy. This video helped me improve even more and I'm been able to hit 10 inch steel targets out to 50-55 yards with relative ease after some more practice with the knowledge provided.

[@MichaelLesesne]

Thanks. I just purchased my first handgun, a G2c. I went to the range and initially hit dead center where I aimed. Then, I started spraying shots because I was searching for the stance and grip that's most comfortable and effective for me. Even though the G2c is a compact gun, I like to stand slightly staggered with my left foot back. I also discovered, as you mentioned in the video, that because I had to much finger on the trigger, I was pulling shots right. This was very informative.👌

good video man. Only thing I would suggest adding is the trigger reset after shooting a round. I know a lot of people let the trigger all the way out and others even take their fingers out of the trigger well after each shot. Letting them know that you only need to let out enough slack to hear the reset would cover everything. Thanks for sharing.

[@louiscyfer6944]

you demonstrate the problem with the weaver, your gun goes off center to the left with each shot. the isosceles is more consistent and stays better on centerline during recoil. you are distributing it down the arms equally instead of uneven distribution.

[@BoomStickTactical]

+louis cyfer different shooters shoot better with different stances. The weaver is better for gins that have a lot of recoil. What works for one shooter may not work for another.

[@louiscyfer6944]

BoomStick Tactical the uneven distribution becomes a bigger problem with bigger recoil.

[@BoomStickTactical]

louis cyfer no argument but some shooters still shoot better with that stance then any other. It all depends on the individual.

[@tomylittlegirl626]

The bladed stance of the Weaver also helps by allowing your strong side arm to act as a stock of sorts and helping to line up your eye with your sights. It also helps you to present a slightly smaller target to anyone who may be shooting back if cover is not available. It DOES help with recoil. This can be demonstrated also in the fact that nearly everyone naturally takes a weaver stance of sorts when preparing to fight someone. It allows you to take a punch better and it allows you to put more of your power forward when punching, both concepts translate to better pistol recoil management. With the strong side leg slightly behind you, you can push off the ground and bend the knee to absorb recoil. From the isosceles the only way your legs can compensate for recoil is to step back, which throws off your entire shooting base. In the isosceles your arms and midsection must absorb the recoil by raising the weapon up and bending backwards at the waist which means more weapon travel before getting to successive shots. There is reason that the Weaver is taught to military and law enforcement from basic through advanced tactical shooting. The off center shot can easily be explained by the fact that he was aiming through a CAMERA.

[@hansg6336]

Hmm, I wonder though if the isosceles makes you a bigger target than weaver.

The information is good, complete and given concisely. This amount of instruction given here in five minutes would have taken many other instructors much longer - and not presented as well. The filming of the sight picture was superb - especially while firing the handgun. You are steady, soft spoken, level-headed, and likable. Your presentation is understated, without flair or ego, but engaging and powerfully informative. Have shared this video with family, and have subscribed to your channel. Thanks.

I'm glad to hear and thanks for sharing this with them.

I was a marksman in the army - but only on an M16 rifle! I think I’m currently a pretty crappy shot on the pistols, and out in the real world now, especially with my wife and then later on my kiddos - For self-defense, that’s all handgun. So I just got a bunch of pistols. One thing I like about this video , the thing I got out of it that I learned which was new to me: everyone always talks about gripping the pistol strong. But you had that point about pushing back a little bit with the left-hand and pushing forward a little bit with the right, I think that’s gonna be very helpful, thank you. I also like that your videos are really no nonsense, pretty much every word that you said was necessary, very efficient, much like your pistol shooting! Subscribed

Glad to have you. I have tutorials specifically on grip and trigger control on my channel.

[@luisrodriguez7264]

Passed my qualification with my micro compact because of the help of this video. Thank you sir. Great explanation of how to sight in a handgun.

[@BoomStickTactical]

Glad to hear. I've got other tutorials on my channel. Check it out.

[@johnpeasant7859]

Thank you very much...I haven't shot a pistol in 25 years, but I'm going to be the proud recipient of an H&K P7M8 in a couple of days and plan on applying some of those tips with plenty of range time on my way to a right-to-carry license given what is going on in this country right now...never knew about that trigger finger influence before. Have already stocked up on plenty of ammo to get that practice.

[@BoomStickTactical]

Great. Practice makes perfect. Please subscribe to the channel

[@lorialamo9482]

Thank you! Just watching your video and you teaching to hold the pistol with a push/pull method made all the difference in the world for me!!!

[@BoomStickTactical]

I'm glad to help

[@KevinMcClanahan]

Solid trigger pull tips. I realized I use less finger which is why I am off, on the hunt for the happy medium. Great video!

Glad to see more shooters blacken out the rear sights. As a ex-mil NLMARSOF soldier, I was re-trained to use both eyes open. Blackened out rear sights, and run from target to target. With daily training your brain will compensate and make you a better CQC shooter. Quicker, more accurate, and you get 40 degrees more from your perivial vision. Which is extremely important in CQC. Keep up the good videos. I might even start my own videos to teach average gun owners spec ops rules and tricks to get on the "TANGO" faster, be more aggressive, accurate, and acquire the skills to see the surroundings.

[@BoomStickTactical]

Let me know if you start making them. I'm always looking for more training videos myself.

[@gavelboy01]

@@BoomStickTactical I'll definitely let you know. Working on a old school short range carbine for fun right now for CQC. But I might be able to find some vids of my 1000 meter + 8mm k-98 toy. Yup....You heard right.;-) Self loads of course. MOA changes a tad.

[@bobobch8764]

Excellent, clear lesson on all aspects of stance, grip, trigger pull and aiming. I have shot guns since I was a kid being raised in the country. However, we learned on our own by trial and error without the availability of the internet or any other directions.

[@BoomStickTactical]

That's how I learned a lot also. Trial and error. I had a couple crack shots in my family.

[@vedgsesh]

You did really well demonstrating how trigger actuation by too much or too little index finger affects your aim; i haven't seen that anywhere else in shooting videos. Nice work!

[@BoomStickTactical]

Thanks. Check out my channel for more tutorials

[@kryos0627]

Thank you very much for showing proper sight picture, "split target in half", with front sight. Everyone else shows circle on top of front sight. Not how I was taught.

[@BoomStickTactical]

Thanks for watching

[@stevebenson3024]

Nice job especially showing the sight picture. Most people buy to big of caliber and start flinching before they pull the trigger. Great video.

[@BoomStickTactical]

+Steve Benson thanks

[@craigcampbell6933]

Finally! Don't know why it was so complicated finding a video showing you how to aim, but I'm so glad I found this!

[@BoomStickTactical]

Glad to did thanks for watching. I've got more tutorials on my channel.

[@mshalalnoaimi8318]

I wish you were there when my first shooting training. The girl who is the employee in the shooting center she laughed at me it looked like I was pathetic 😢. But next round I will see who would laughe . Ty

I teach classes in kentucky. Find a reputable instructor in your area.

[@mshalalnoaimi8318]

@BoomStickTactical I found, thank you so much 💗

[@rickclark2806]

Very good teacher and video. After years of revolver use and switching to a semi auto I found this video to be very helpful at least three or four things I needed to work on are covered here.

[@BoomStickTactical]

Glad to help. Please check out my channel for more tutorials

[@tylerdurden7142]

Bar none, best video out there I've seen about shooting accurately. So simple, straight forward while demonstrating it visually, and the tips on how to grip and why are extremely helpful. Thx!

[@BoomStickTactical]

Thanks for watching. Please share the video with others

[@Fallingtower969]

I was a crappy pistol shot. I WAS...but not now. Utilizing 3 or 4 little lessons from this vid I am now blowing out the middle of targets. Gen 3 Glock 19 and Mil-Spec 1911. Thanks!
