How many people practice one handed off hand shooting skills?
How many members can hit reliably with their weak side shooting hand? How many practice one handed off hand shooting skills? How many members KNOW they can hit off handed one handed when and if it's necessary [ as in your strong hand/arm has been disabled ]?
If you can't hit like this with your off hand, might want to consider spending some time working on your off hand one handed shooting skills

I practice each time out to the range, but not enough lead down range to be ultra confident.

I will admit that I do not practice enough off hand.
PS: Brownie, when shooting two pistols..... Where are you looking? Obviously, you can't see both targets at the same time...... or can you?

I do practice off hand shooting, a lot. When I go to the range I probably spend 60% strong hand and 40% weak hand. Its an important skill. Not super great at off hand but can hit a body if need be without any troubles. Its a good skill to have!

I do not own a Glock, do not like a striker ignition system although the SA XDs was easier to adjust to than I expected, but I am sure that no matter how much I practice that in a real gunfight that the stress would raise hell with my ability to take up and then squeeze that striker fired gun. Thank you for your tips and the video. After watching the slide release and carry a round into the chamber when slamming in a fresh magazine will cause me to draw another line through the I wanna Glock on my Christmas list. My poly gun want begins and ends with the new Wilson Combat Spec-Ops 9 I finally picked up last Friday upon our return to our Florida winter location from the Seattle area. I put 3 boxes of 9MM through it yesterday. Amazing how fast that happened. I am no expert but I will write it up this evening for anyone interested. dennis

I have practiced it, but I am extremely right eye dominate, so I have to shoot left hand, right eye. It's a bit weird, but I'm a little more accurate, but a lot slower that way.

I shoot one handed pretty much exclusively when training for sd, but only about 10% weak hand, just to keep the skill fresh. I can hit what i aim at within 7yds no problem, good enough for me. I only shoot two handed when competing and when instructing others on technique.

What he said^^^
That and a friend taught me to use my middle finger as my trigger finger too. When I first asked him why, he responded with "what would you do if you lost your trigger finger and had to adapt but weren't ready?". Since that day, I've practiced both weak hand and middle fingered shooting. |
