  • It's been a while friends! Just wanted to upload something to show you guys I'm still hitting the range! Life has been keeping me pretty preoccupied and finally I had time to upload something!
    This was a fun range day with some friends and this is just a small snippet of things that were covered! This was shot maybe a month or so ago so a lot of things have changed and stuff has been moved around. I no longer have a comp on my pistol and have just gone to running a stock barrel with the magwell and the Aimpoint ACRO P-1 with stock internals.

      Unfortunately most instructors aren’t newrly this knowledgeable about fundamentals. They just want to flex and don’t really care about how much a student takes away from the training. A true instructor is always a student.

    • @OTG_Zulu

      Look up dryfire mag and if they make something for your pistol definitely try to pick one up. Basically it’s a mag that resets your pistols trigger without you have to build in bad subconscious muscle memory by racking the slide each trigger press. The price is steep but I’d pay it twice over because how much it helped.

    What a phenomenal Teacher this guy is!! The two teaching techniques of putting the mag on the rear sights for sight picture and the other of pressing the trigger for the student are just fantastic ideas! Only so much can be communicated using words. Visualization and feel techniques are so important. Possibly to help someone like the guy closest to the camera with changing trigger press habits, the press and reset can be described as one fluid motion back and forth. He seemed to have difficulty getting his brain to take the “second step” of resetting the trigger immediately. If he didn’t think of this as a “second step”, but thought of the press and reset as one step, it might help someone like him conceptualize the action more easily.

  • @bunnyoperator
    @bunnyoperator 2 роки тому +1

    I completely agree with setting the standard and training to the standard VS training to the baby steps. Of course, we're supposed to break the techniques down but teaching to the individual steps places a crutch on advancement and can create hindering habits.
    This is analogous to teaching arrest & control or any form of unarmed techniques. The flow of the technique, say a twist lock, gets jacked up. You see folks moving like robots overthinking each step vs allowing the takedown to flow properly and totally ruining leverage and momentum.
    Good stuff, brotha.

    Man this is solid advice, too many people teach you to pin the trigger to the rear, ride the reset etc. good for fundamentals and practicing trigger control sure, but it doesn’t provide for a fast shooting cadence. I saw another video recently that I watched that explained exactly this concept that you should not even hear the trigger reset just get off the trigger right away as soon as the shot breaks. Might have been warrior poet society maybe? I forget it. Good concepts though and have to retrain my brain.

    A thing that helped me with instant reset was just dry fire and knowing where my reset happens with my stock Glock 19 trigger. I spent a lot of time pinning the trigger and slowly walking it forward to the reset, and paying REALLY close attention to how much tension was still in my finger. Now when I shoot fast with an instant reset, all I'm doing is relaxing my finger just enough to let the trigger come forward to the wall and my finger never leaves the trigger. I feel like what holds a lot of people back is the mental game of "getting off the trigger" combined with not knowing their trigger well enough so they don't know how much tension still needs to be in their finger to get to that wall after the shot breaks.
