More With Ernest Langdon (Elite LTT) | Active Self Protection Extra

[@grantorino2009]

I met Ernie at a match a few years ago. Super, super nice guy, and there are probably not 10 people on this earth who can equal or exceed his skill set. He's the best DA/SA instructor in the world and dismantled some 1911 pros, including Rob Leatham, with a DA/SA Sig Sauer P220 several years ago.

[@thestayathomebeard3065]

Idk don’t count out Martin Riggs being on the same or even better skill set lol

[@1clnsdime1]

U know that's not his name correct ?

[@snowdogs01]

I shoot a local IDPA type match with someone who REALLY shoots a 92 well. Typically in the top 10. His pistol has had no work on it; simply well broken in from many hours of dry fire and range time. He is 16, making guys with high $$ guns look bad.

[@ASPextra]

As the old adage says, it's the Indian, not the arrow.

[@darylstephens7446]

Really enjoying these extra sessions with Ernest Langdon. I think i need to pick up one of his trigger kits for my PX4

[@ASPextra]

Oh my goodness, it's like a whole new gun. Seriously.

[@theprepperrevelator]

Mr. Langdon is an absolute amazing shooter! Much respect sir! We all should aspire to shoot as well especially if we carry a gun for self defense. Rick

[@ASPextra]

He really is something else.

[@trooper427ss]

I would like to give him more than one thumbs up. Ha

[@NHlocal]

Oh John, you really aren't very nice putting up a video showing off those Beretta 92 pistols. I've just drooled all over my keyboard watching you guys talking about and shooting those beauties. But seriously, I would love to first try one and I'm sure after putting a few hundred rounds down range I would love it. And watching Ernest shoot is so much fun and at the same time so dang frustrating. Thanks for posting up another great video. I should have the keyboard on my laptop all cleaned up and dried out by the time you post up another one of these "teaser" videos..... ;~) Keep yourselves safe! Randy

[@PeteOrta]

This had some really good tips on DA/SA trigger pull. After buying my CZ P09 I’ve looked everywhere to find a professional’s philosophy on operating a DA/SA gun. This information is so valuable you might want to consider retitling the video.

[@ASPextra]

More to come from Ernest!

[@theprepperrevelator]

Take a class from Ernest it will truly change your life! Rick

[@sharper9009]

Ernest is the DA/SA Master. Look up his article called “Fear not the double action trigger pull”

[@PeteOrta]

sharper2112 Thanks!

[@grantorino2009]

Pete, you used to play guitar in Petra, didn't you? I saw you in Memphis in 99 on the God Fixation tour. Broomtree opened. You were amazing. St. Augustine's Pears was my favorite. Hope that you are well and still in the faith.

[@joecamel8182]

I wish I could shoot like this guy Ernest is awesome just ordered the compact elite.

[@nrbrown5985]

I live my Elite LTT. It makes my Wilson Combat M9A1 trigger seem amateur in comparison. Great video!

[@mrbegals4122]

How is the comparison? I was looking at the wilson combat also

[@gamergilbert6927]

I love my 92a1 it's got all W/C hardware but I can hit a spent 12gauge cartridge at 20yrds with it. It always gets attention at the range in my opinion it's a gun of conasuiers.

[@bigghoss762]

It's funny. When I shoot my 92 I often finding myself shooting the DA shots as well or better than SA because I'm focusing so much harder on my DA trigger press and getting a little too confident about the SA shots.

[@ASPextra]

I think that's not uncommon.

[@bigghoss762]

@@ASPextra I've heard a few other guys say they do that too. I think I even read a post from Mr. Langdon on Pistol Forum where he said he's done that. Honestly I'll catch myself getting sloppy anytime I notice I'm shooting well.

[@dustinpribble1546]

John, do u think practice at longer distance like 10-15yrds will translate to more accurate close shots? Anything less than 7-10yrds makes me feel like I'm cheating.... Should I start adding more close range? Usually I do like 10% close and 90% 10+yrds...

[@ASPextra]

Do some close, some farther. The closer shots let you work speed mode.

[@Texflix]

I like your grip... May have to try that.

[@sharper9009]

Literally just placed an order for one of these less than 2 hrs ago. Great shooting John 👍. Having to follow Ernest is not very pleasant I’m sure

[@ASPextra]

It's humbling for sure! But I mean, let's be real...dude is a HUGE national champion and just the humblest, kindest man. He's impossible not to like.

[@sharper9009]

Active Self Protection Extra Yea he certainly seems that way. I hope to take his class one day

[@gamergilbert6927]

And I like doing my own work. Makes the gun a little more me.and it has Wolff internals.

[@andydundas2443]

Great info on shooting a DA/SA.

[@parabellum3205]

John, Ernest Langdon is like a Sith lord trying to take you away to the dark side... "You don't know the power of DA/SA."... There's still good in John, I can feel it... 😜

[@ASPextra]

HAHAHAH!

[@Whitpusmc]

What are these targets called? Is there an online source for them?

[@RealTacticalHobo]

Logan rocks the mustache.

[@ASPextra]

It is a majestic lip ferret.

[@skepticalbadger]

I suspect that he doesn't have time to bleed.

[@room2376]

Hackethorn approved

[@room2376]

I’m in a debate with myself over this or the Wilson combat beretta

[@ASPextra]

Both good choices.

[@jeffbarber9976]

Nice video. Question, will magazines from 92fs fit this awesome elite ltt? Californian here. Need to make sure there are 10rd mags for this pistol. Thanks.

[@ASPextra]

I asked. Will report what I find.

[@ASPextra]

M9A1 frame so yes.

[@jeffbarber9976]

Thank you

[@jonsmith8083]

Get 18 rounders

[@GUNTHER-lx6vu]

I love this pistol but I would have left the barrel original length and then crowned it

[@JJacs]

What target stands are you using?

[@ASPextra]

I can ask Ernest. They're metal stands.

[@jamescooper7272]

#mortaldivision represent!

[@shoot4fun302]

Heavy slide/light slide. Yes, the recoil is slightly different, but it doesn't mitigate recoil. Some would say a light slide yields a faster cycling, and they may prefer that. Others would point out that a heavier slide slows the recoil pulse, making it feel softer. I see the same arguments made with AR BCG's and buffers. It's probably personal choice rather than one's better than the other.

[@Jay_Hall]

He reminds me of Devon Laratt the arm wrestler.

[@NoWr2Run]

NICE SHOOTING, Self Pro.

[@ASPextra]

Thanks!
