You can post all the so called "evidence" you want but FOR ME it is slower. Consider the following: - You don't see police and military using red dots - Most shootings are at less than 2 yards, you don't even need the sights at that distance - In high stress situations you don't even use the sights anyways My friend (who is a CERTIFIED ccw instructor) uses irons and I saw him drop a squirrel at 23 yards with his revolver. You don't need all this technology to shoot. View Quote I don't even know where to start with this guy. eta: nice edit, bacon |

Suggestions for reading/videos for working on grip/recoil control?
Used my shot timer app this afternoon and splits were in the highs .30s to 40s. First shot times prove I need more dryfire going Glock to Sig and back at the range probably doesnt help |

I apply force and try to keep it from hopping around but my main focus is having it return to the same spot it was before. I pinch at the top (torque elbows upwards slightly), push up with my support hand (first one/two fingers), torque up with my strong hand at the web, squeeze the fingers of my strong hand into the grip with my support hand. G19.3 w/ PMM, SRO - 5rds Basically try to get it right from the get-go so I’m not fighting to adjust it mid-string. Still working on it but it’s getting there… |

The main problem is you post negativity without actually trying to help others (and in turn yourself) and the act is coming off a bit douchey. For instance, my thumb does a lot of movement and was pointed out. I then knew I had something else to work on. Since that’s the case, I ask you to show video proof to back up your statements. That’s all. You’re probably a cool fellow in real life but your online demeanor allows a lot questionable behavior. |
