How to use Glock sights

[@rayjensen4480]

I watched your video.....and thought that you were a little nuts......UNTIL I went to the range.....and "put the drop....in the bucket". I can't believe the difference in my shooting. It really works!

[@brandondahl9333]

@Stay10-8 lmaoooooooo

[@FreedomInc]

@Stay10-8 I was going to ask the same question.

[@Rsal86]

He was spilling out from the bucket instead of dropping.

[@arch-fiend6007]

Proper grip, front sight focus, trigger squeeze, and trigger reset manipulation. Also very essential for good groups.

[@eracingregal]

My instructor never explain this to me as simple as you did. Now I'm 100% on target.

[@JBGoode-zx7pp]

⚪️➡️🪣 Works every time. ☑️

[@762HS]

3 years since I got my glock and this is still the best advice I’ve gotten lol simple yet effective and hilarious

[@benperea8483]

If only all instructors could make lessons this interesting and entertaining! Great presentation...I will definitely try this tomorrow!

[@TheAlice1865]

I tried this at the range with my Glock 43 and it does work! This guy is great!

[@nashvillekawboy1805]

[@TheSkipPruitt]

He can shoot and he's hilarious " it don't even matter" Lol

[@SmokinZen]

Finally a simple video that doesn't take itself to serious.

[@adammitchell0]

This is the best advise I’ve heard. Drop in the bucket and I’m on target. I also have ameriglo sights installed and still can do the same trick, it works!

[@StejskyFX]

I tried this today at the range with my Glock 19 and 43 and it works. The simplest explanation I have ever seen and it seems to be the best one.

[@MiddleOutdoorsman]

Took me half a box of ammo to figure this out the other day. The sight picture at 1:49 that is why I was digging holes in front of my target. Stupid me, was leveling the top of the front sight post with the top of the rear notch, just like you would with most any other handgun. Nope! Have to ignore the top of the front sight post not being flush with the rear notch and focus more on that "drop in the bucket".

[@J0ZEQNZ]

I thought that too lol Thats why im here watching this video I seriously though i had bought a defective glock because the top of both sight didn't align flush 😅

[@bullguit]

But do you put the drop on what you intend hit?

[@Covinaman-00]

My bucket has a hole in it.

[@foreverandaday8185]

Hickok45 shoots with factory sights too! Not once have I seen him shooting with aftermarkets.

[@DWAIvideos]

Exactly, he must be using drop in the bucket as well. That's how he's able to shoot so well. I mean, come on, Glock 27 at 230 yards? That's just testament to the effectiveness of drop in the bucket. :p

[@johnofark9977]

the g23 he used in his 230 yard video had night sights, impressive nonetheless.

[@hdrjunkie]

C LeSaca that's because he is a great shooter...lets face it, not everyone can shoot like some of these guys do and never will. it takes a ton of practice, patience and you need to have someplace to shoot. today, everyone wants to be a pro the first time out. Its like anything else, playing a musical instrument, painting, building houses... natural talents only go so far, you still need structure and practice. pros still rehearse and practice, Sometimes daily!That said... I wish I had a great home range, companies sending me guns to test and make videos of and a seemingly un ending supply of Ammo...lol Hickok45 seems like a great guy who has a great life if you ask me, and yes, that good ol' boy can shoot! lol

[@hollynites445]

+C LeSaca Hickok45 was a professional competitive shooter also. Lots of practice and just look at his shooting range. It's a god-send for shooters.

[@davva360]

+Beardman54 I use them on my G23. About to get a G19 in Flat Dark Earth. I plan to use regular sights on that for a while but if I decide to carry it I will go Truglo.

[@ecalzo]

Not a Joke here.. HE's right .. i used many fancy sights on my Glocks (i owned 7 from gen3 to gen5) and i always had troubles until i got back to the oem plastic sight drop in the bucket style ... This is working pretty well for me ..

[@gustavopineda8717]

That's just his personality, the way he expresses himself. you haters probably can't even shoot. you dream of shooting like this

[@garyspiegel2355]

put the lotion in the basket

[@alomechanthasinh]

Gary Spiegel lmao

[@Yojimbro71]

😂

[@Hammy1088]

Gary Spiegel hahahahahahaa

[@vincesmith5846]

LMFAO

[@psibrunojusto]

lmao

[@JohnFurman]

Has Glocks legal team contacted you yet? LOL

[@alfonsosalas9930]

I like how you keep it simple! It doesn't have to be too technical. Great job man.

[@dontbestupid6664]

This is probably one of the most interesting gun videos I have seen.

[@billybatesjr1886]

Well I'm retired LE, was on the Pistol Team, I used my Glock Factory sites, on qualifications I average 246 247 out of a score of 250 being Perfect. Weather like in the video saying drop in the bucket basically the same as sight alignment trigger control the guns are designed a certain way you just have to learn and like he said practice practice practice !!

[@chesrayjooste107]

I was on BFT training last week an this video help me alot to shoot accurate keep it mind it was my 1st time using an firearm

[@wadeholloway633]

This guy needs his own show, for real, a comedy show.

[@taffbanjo]

He's very funny - and absolutely right. I've never had a problem with the factory sights.

[@bobby7482]

I’m in tears! 😂 That’s all I’m going hear when I’m at the range. “Put the drop in the bucket!” 😂😂😂

[@planbenterprise]

Behold. The Glock Jesus is now among us! Simply watching this video once allowed me to shoot accurately, saved my marriage, allows me to sleep better at night, fixed my HDL, lowered my BMI, and cured my ED.

[@sleepeatdrive7619]

planbenterprise bro you mean he fixed your LDL, not your HDL. Your LDL is the bad cholesterol, unfortunately almost everybody has high. P.S. I know your comment was a joke, it was funny lol

[@allaboutshara2783]

Lmao!

[@allaboutshara2783]

Again lmao

[@torbenhansen8539]

lol

[@FC64002]

Lol

[@michaeldavidson5979]

He put it so right, the whole process is to keep it simple as possible. A perfect practice. A Drop in the Bucket!

[@tothehunt]

That's right. After playing with aftermarket sights for a while in all lighting conditions the stock glock sights are back on. They're just the best.

[@Iwickerman]

so I can't tell if this is a joke or not

[@mahzoom7]

It's not a joke that it made me incredibly nervous when he was scratching his head with the barrel end of his gun, then I almost shat myself when he shooting without looking downrange.

[@cyclotechtwister1997]

@mahzoom7 - Why? Were you downrange? Was there other people near him? Was he scratching your head? Now stop acting like a snowflake..

[@1-Reeze-9]

I don't get where this can be any joke?? (I just KNOW you're not making such a comment, or feeling such a way based upon the his accent.. Right???) 🤔

[@Sid6902]

His, I'm cool hip personality did not seam natural but forced. So I thought the same but I realized it kept my attention.

[@Quantum_015]

Englewood Frank21 Lol @ “seam”

[@Raytarded66]

His accent is part Kim Jung Un part Colonel Sanders

[@voxhumana2able]

Ha!

[@Lighthammer072]

Kim Jong Un? This guy's clearly from _South_ Korea.

[@82ndsniper1]

Very nice even made me laugh

[@i.or.i]

Duke Silver STOP 💀

[@frawdulent]

He didn’t say “Grock” he said “Glock”.

[@LoveIsAllWeneed666]

Nice way to mix humor with information. Cool video!

[@jeremyshearer]

This is probably the funniest video I’ve seen.. I’m subscribing for sure

[@zeus-mt7wx]

Loves this. Simple easy to the point. No crap no macho bull shit, best of all he makes it funny and interesting. Thank you.

[@giobigbandz1340]

This is my first time ever seeing this dude on KZbin I watched him for 1:04 and subbed right away

[@chris1414ful]

Lol He said " They don't know shit" this video was very helpful and funny at the same time. All you need is the Drop In The Bucket!

[@imconfusedtwo9268]

I tried the xs big dot, and the i-dot and I like the stock ball in the bucket way better !

[@ren52]

Great video! People who think they'll shoot better by changing out components usually just need more range time. Although sights, I'm my opinion, are the only safe and acceptable modification to a stock Glock. Nothing is wrong with a tritium or fiber upgrade, but when people start messing with springs, firing pins, plungers, sprickets and flux capacitors, timing gets thrown around and usually off. Getting back on track, stock sights will hit the bull, but can you?

[@sailboatbob3969]

I watched a youtube clip with 2, 2A lawyers talking about IF you ever did shot/kill in self defense, their Lawyer will bring up all the Mods you did to your gun and why? The sights, the trigger, the springs, etc...and then ask why buy that gun if you had to do all that work to it. It might turn the jury against you. something to consider

[@6mrsatan]

Thanks this is simple , I just got my first block the g42 and had a hard time even hitting paper at 75 feet but now I'm going to go back and try the drop in the bucket. Thanks again

[@ronin550]

LOL drop in the bucket.....I like it.

[@HoeManager64]

Seriously....I have only had problems with one glock I have. The damn G21. I changed the whole sights completely. The 9x19 models I'm on point......I could simply be a ME problem. Still working on it.

[@nicolewebber2869]

This is old, but it helped me pass my shooting test. I put the drop in the bucket. 😂

[@stonezz8863]

That final clip dump had me rolling😆😆

[@cisko1313able]

Love the video...Glock is the best hand gun I ever had

[@lanbach6047]

You are hilarious! I’m gonna drop it in the bucket next time at the range. Keep it bro!

[@mbenzsl2000]

LOL, is he just having fun or something? Why so many dislikes? He's obviously doing something right.

[@coaltrain4423]

I promise you everything this young man is saying is correct.WHERE ELSE IS THE WHITE DROP SUPPOSED TO GO OTHER THAN THE WHITE BUCKET!It's self explanatory!Put the drop in the dang bucket hold the drop steady on the intended target,squeeze off on the trigger WHILE HOLDING STEADY ON INTENDED TARGET,RELEASE TRIGGER TO RESET POSITION ,THEN REPEAT SAME STEPS AS MANY TIMES AS NECESSARY.Pretty dang simple.If you have $1000 sights the process is the same.Hold as steady on target as possible Until you're through shooting.Nobody can hit anything with any gun with any sights with the barrel musell dancing all over the place.GLOCK SIGHTS ARE OK.

[@maseta3]

very informative and yet funny at the same time. well done!

[@RaymondRAYCE]

Dawg... I am so grateful I found this video! Not only was I ignorant af on how to align my 19 stock sights with all these damn videos and web forums trying to push aftermarket sights. I need this guy to be my life coach.

[@sfc.michaelfoxwilliams8603]

Great video!Real catchy,drop in the bucket!I like it,I like it alot.

[@TraumaGuru74]

Where were you when I first bought my Glock????? Thank you for this video.

[@Quantum_015]

Ever since watching this I say “drop in the bucket” for damn near everything even for sex I tell my Lady baby I feel like putting the drop In the bucket .

[@VMJM85]

Your a freaking pevert! Disgusting! You think it's funny but it's not. Please don't say gross things like that on an open discussion. If you have any class you apologize and not do it again. But I figure you probably don't have any class.

[@Quantum_015]

J.B.M J.B.M I’m sorry but you’re strange & sensitive ... there’s your apology ! Lol 😂

[@ghandiman]

J.B.M J.B.M what a strange reply

[@Quantum_015]

Ghandi That’s what I was thinking Lol

[@daryl142003]

Freakin' hilarious! Thanks for the laugh!

[@henry.duck.3924]

Best logic ever. Pretty good groups too. “It don’t matter at all.”

[@andyamysarizonaadventures5450]

Funny🤣 I think John Wick has met his match! 😎

[@kernlkajun1]

Great, entertaining, simple and informative video. Thanks! Who can forget “Put the drop in the bucket”. Now, back to the practice range.

[@ptrollan]

drop in the bucket works great, it is glock perfection

[@allengainzmma]

It kinda sucks I’m 8 years late to this video but you earned a new sub either way! Great video bro hopefully I can get my aim as good as yours!

[@DWAIvideos]

Damn this video is old…

[@allengainzmma]

@@DWAIvideos it’s aged great though! Still very informative and useful to this day!

[@risvballer24]

Haha best Glock instructor ever

[@rudychavira5558]

Crap, I'm not dropping it in the bucket like that. What distance was that?

[@stylz1]

Please tell me you don't teach classes like this.

[@orangpendek1024]

Only when he's high.

[@ShawnGS300]

Alittle sugar in the tank?

[@MR-nl8xr]

He's a certified instructor.

[@I__Love_Lamp]

I think it would be beneficial to the beginner shooters to loosen up when giving a class. You tend to remember more of the instructions IMO. "Just tap it in"!

[@aledson4613]

Max R / Welp, he's definitely "certified" if you know what I mean....

[@kenesto]

This I can say is simple,yet profoundly basic and fundamental instruction that I also found fun and entertaining to watch.He has a knack for this and proves that learning can also be fun!

[@qweldl]

Thank you so much man. I learned something today.

[@abritton7575]

Awesome ! New gun owner and Beginner here . Very informative and will try my 1st day at range and make sure I’m getting a lot of practice ! As long as I can find Ammo ...

[@JuanRodriguez556beats911]

Damn, I wish I watched this video before buying some I dot sights

[@ConwayGritty73]

Great video! The only thing I would recommend is changing the front site to something that allows you to see the front better. The drop in the bucket sight picture is great but focusing on the front site is sometimes hard to do fast and in different light situations. A good highly visible front green dot really brings the "drop" out and allows you to focus faster. The back sight is amazing. That's my two cents.

[@bruechel]

What's with the "Plantation Slave" voice?

[@neilarellano8470]

😁🤣😂 ikr?

[@FBINSA]

10 years later i found this and I'll give it a shot.

[@kleinbottled79]

Drop your Glock in a bucket? No wait that wasn't it, damn. Now I'm gonna need those expensive lessons he was talking about.

[@wildwoody20]

same thing good advice but you can drop in the bucket easier cant you at might if you see the sights better with a brighter color ? but i like what you say

[@TheAlice1865]

This is a great video! This really works.

[@ArmyMatt79]

A lot of my Friends, can't stand the Glock Sights. I actually LOVE the Glock Sights, and I'm VERY ACCURATE with them. I have a few Glocks with Night Sights, and a few with the OEM Sights. I'm actually faster with the OEM Sights.

[@BlindTom61]

Funny and very cool guy. Some of you dudes need to chill...

[@Americanblood76]

You sir are amazing and I hope you don’t get sued.

[@DWAIvideos]

Americanblood76 thank you! Im glad you enjoyed the video

[@johnvogel4617]

I freakin love this guy 😂

[@redalrt4]

I loved your video. Going to practice putting the drop in the bucket on my G21

[@Patriot93933]

This guy is awesome! and fun.

[@Bealesgarage]

The part on the sight picture is good, always know your sights. You failed to mention where the point of impact would be. I found about 20 seconds of this to be worth time.

[@nitegoat1369]

I love stock factory Glcok sights; I'm EXTREMELY accurate with them. But I like having night sights on my handguns. When I put my first set of night sights on my G23, after having factory sight on it for 11 years, I chose TruGlo TFO's. My aim with those was for shit. I purchased a G19 a year ago and decided to go with Meprolight Tru-Dot's, since they basically have the dimensions as Glock Factory sights (Mepro also makes the Glock factory night sights). With the Mepros I was right back on target. I promptly went and bought a set for my G23; no more accuracy issues.

[@scottt2012]

This video is straight money. Nice work.

[@sargemanaustin]

there is no such thing as an "accidental discharge" only negligence

[@sargemanaustin]

CDubs HasIt nope, because if you follow the safety rules ( all of them) then accidents dont happen, shooting yourself means you were being negligent, the fact you even tried to argue that shows your firearms experience

[@sargemanaustin]

CDubs HasIt yeah im sorry maybe I should become a fat neck beard so I can have the same picture as you, scrub

[@Fan4ManUnited]

sargemanaustin wrong

[@sargemanaustin]

Fan4ManUnited not even remotely, any instructor with any background will agree

[@Fan4ManUnited]

sargemanaustin accidents are accidents for a reason....its not some made up fantasy

[@alexcurtis6424]

After watching this video & lmao like 5 times in a row I don't even want to see another instructors video if it ain't laced with this much comedy. Put the drop in the bucket lol #love it

[@diecastneighborhood3319]

You are so damn right. All these times we've ripped off by all these accessories companies promising their great equipments will take your skils to the moon and back. Don't worry about haters, they are pissed off because they are the dumbasses who dropped coupe Benjamins to get all these useless shit. Thanks for sharing. CAN WE GET SOME T SHIRTS GOING WITH DROP IN THE BUCKET. LOL

[@Sldejo]

I’d buy that!

[@marcel-w7]

True, true I see shooters spending huge amounts of money on new glocks and their shooting is routing. I been shooting my G-34 with its original sights with minor adjustment and moved up a notch in the IDPA match. Glock sights are ok and cheap to replace. Great video. Thanks

[@MRBACKHANDSR]

Drop in the bucket... Love it lol

[@CITYBOY5950]

I didn’t even mean to click this video and ended up watching the whole thing because I love this guy’s accent 😅🤣

[@red19841984]

Hmm, was that a glock sticker on his black shirt? Haha. I'm sure it was. Haha. Great vid

[@Maltese280zx]

If he claims to be a Glock instructor and is not, isnt he likely to see a lawsuit?

[@Xenophon1]

Those Austrian combat sights actually worked for combat shooting back in the 80's. ;)

[@MrEricdgreat]

Thank for the info. Great video, forget all this haters they sure act brave on a video message. I bet if you confront them they are nothing but chickens. Typical

[@limkimly]

simple straight to the point no bs what so ever, great video period.

[@sammoon2906]

I hear this term "Glock perfection" a lot, I find it kind of contradictory that I hear it most on videos showing people how to actually use their "perfect" Glock. Makes for a good point; your pistol may be perfect, but you aren't. So, no matter what you're carrying, you should PRACTICE PRACTICE PRACTICE. Then, practice some more...

[@hdrjunkie]

Sam Moon you cant shoot without "Learning to shoot." Some folks don't get it. "Im gonna buy the best, most popular, most expensive gun and Ill be a crack shot even though I never even saw a real gun in person before!" lol... how many times do you hear? "I don't understand, I went out and bought a (insert flavor of the day hand gun here...) and I STILL don't get groupings anywhere near you do with your rusty old 1911..." lol

[@sammoon2906]

hdrjunkie Unfortunately I don't hear that nearly as often as I know to be the case; I have a friend who fits your description in every way except the admittance part. He insists on revolvers for their accuracy, buys "only the best", which translates to high price like you said, and will only feed them match ammo. He refuses to take advice like "Squeeze the trigger" "Keep both eyes open" or "Use both hands, DAMMIT!" You know exactly what his groups look like. Yet, when asked why he only cares about accuracy but puts no effort into attaining it, he'll confidently insist the superiority of his purchase will win any fight "when it counts" Yeah, right...

[@hdrjunkie]

Sam Moon lol yep.... Maybe he means if its a really popular, expensive gun, his attacker will take it in trade for his life. lol Seriously though, its not the gun, its the one using it. I also find that the heavier the gun, the better it is for a new shooter. I have a bud who ran out and got the g43 and swore he loved it...until he shot my 19 ... because of the size difference, he really liked the 19 because he shot better with it. So he went and bought a used Ruger 1911 and loves it more than the G43 or his Smith 357 revolver.(which I love...) I also have a Ruger LCP .380 for carry because its so small but I admit, I couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with it because its so tiny and it wants to jump around so much. even squeezing the trig throws it off. Im hoping at least if I ever did need it just the sight and surprise of a gun suddenly pulled out of thin air and maybe a shot some place near the bad guy will be enough to scare him / her / them off....lol,lol,lol.. oh, I used to hear that same thing with cameras... Even from close friends and family... "Id take beautiful photos too if I had a nice camera and lenses!" Ummm, no you wouldn't. you'd take maybe clearer, sharper photos with more accurate colors but they'd still look like aunt Martha's vacation or holiday pics.... lol

[@johndeere1951a]

[@rockyhamilton1023]

That man straight up told everyone on KZbin not to get training and just go ahead and buy a Glock 😂

[@HighAway]

this is a good logic.

[@dhl671]

is it correct to have your front sight slightly higher than your rear sight like how you have it pictured at 1:54? i ask because i always thought you had to have your front sight centered in the middle as well as have the front sight flush with your rear sight. i ask because when i aim with the front sight flush with the rear sight part of the front dot is covered. im not sure if im making any sense, but my question is is proper sight alignment what you have at 1:54 or with the front sight a little lower so its flush with the rear? thanks for any help.

[@dhl671]

fyi im referring to a G27 i just acquired. still learning to shoot glock.

[@DWAIvideos]

The front sight dot should be in the center of the bucket. The scaling I had at 1:54 is slightly off, so even though the dot is in the bucket the top still stuck out a little. If you're having trouble with hitting smaller targets keep in mind that Glock sights shoot 2-4" high at 25 yards, so you should be putting your sights slightly below the point you're trying to shoot at. Hope that helps.

[@bsflynn23]

BATFE forgive me ignorance, but is there something special about Glocks that allow it to shoot high the further out from the target you go? Your comment "2-4" high at 25 yards, so you should be putting your sights slightly below the point you're trying to shoot at." seems to defy physics. The further out from the target you go, you should have bullet drop. What am I missing?

[@DWAIvideos]

Brian Flynn Hi Brian, thanks for your question. Unfortunately Glocks don't have any special gravity defying mechanisms built in, though if it did that might explain why they're so popular. No, the real reason is that every gun shoots in a parabolic trajectory, or an arc. This is done to get more range out of a gun. If a gun shoots straight out from the barrel parallel to the ground, then the effective range of the gun will be capped by the velocity of the bullet. Thus every gun is made to shoot high first before it drops. It also happens that Glock sights are designed for what we call a "six o'clock" hold. This technique requires you to hold the sights just under the target instead of directly covering it, of course, this is sort of dependent on range, but at closer ranges before the apex of the arc, all your bullets will shoot above the sights. Hope this helps. I do plan on making a Gunning for Dummies episode on this topic some time in the future. If you have any more question about this, feel free to ask or send a message. Thanks.

[@lakerboy16]

To bad no one ever shows or explains sight picture, reason for it, or each guns our of the box sight hold during basic marksmanship classes. Only the sight alignment which doesn't take a degree to figure out. I thought starting out the only sight picture was "combat hold" like the beretta. Might explain why I was more accurate with it than Glocks.

[@raymonddillon7370]

I thought i was the only idiot that likes the glock sights as they come from the factory, my glock 17 and i can shoot the ass off of Bee at 25 yards with the standard glock sight. great video, thanks, and thanks for speaking the truth.

[@TheMrQuackles]

weak. I can shoot the uni-brow off a isis fighter at 1709 meters with da drop in da bucket!

[@I__Love_Lamp]

Oh yeah, I shot the dick off of a mosquito at 100 meters during a hurricane.💯🔫

[@Xfolium1]

Good job, Funny video. I changed my sight because they where to soft for my use, one hand corner loading. You are rite the stock sights they do work well for regular use.

[@noControl556]

I don't get this obsession of racking the slide one handed on your belt or whatever. How often to people in real world situations actually do this? Maybe i'm wrong but I run glocks with good ammo so I don't have misfires so the only time I rack the slide is when putting in a fresh mag

[@cbb6278]

andythecoderman If you want to get technical, how often are people in the real world going to use their guns? The racking on the belt, shoe, pocket, wall, desk whatever is the practice in the circumstance your opposite arm is injured. Which could mean being shot in a fire fight and then you have to reload, to even something as simple as getting hurt whilst doing some sort of work and when you go out a situation comes up and you have to use your gun. The odds are very, very slim; however, what does it hurt to practice. At least the skill would be there in case something did happen. Kind of the same as shooting from your back, or sitting, shooting one handed with your weak hand, etc.

[@vikingsfan2123]

Are you talking like that on purpose or not? It's annoying

[@M3553-j2h]

Earned my sub, simple yet effective.

[@fondoo]

where do i sign up for your classes??!! :)

[@Degen.Diesel]

Iv herd with this type of sight you make the dot half visible, I recent purchased a 17 and I'm new to glock, I dont want backlash but I took it out for the first time and was discouraged with missing when my 1911 is spot on.
