      Anyone hold the barrel of a semiautomatic pistol while it's shot?

      Detect Slide Lock by Feel

      If recognizing slide lock is a problem, shoot USPSA. If you have reached slide lock in USPSA, then you have probably already messed up given the extra time to reload from slide lock. The speed reload (live round still in chamber) is king in USPSA. However, if you shoot IDPA, then recognizing...

      How to deal with hangfires?

      In action shooting matches, competitors eat the time for stoppages and malfunctions. Just about every competitor will immediately rack the slide and eject a round that fails to fire. So, possible hangfires are basically ignored. The gun remains pointed in a safe direction and about the worst...

      NRA CCW class? Thoughts

      So, the NRA's Training Division is going to have a course that has the W-word in the title? Amazing!

      How much training do you ACTUALLY need?

      I'm not sure classes are the answer, but I'm convinced being able to run the gun without having to think about running the gun is a critical skill. By not having to think about handling and firing the gun, you free your brain to focus on the situation and how to deal with it. If one wants the...

      NRA HQ range has banned steel jacket ammo

      My email to the NRA Range: Some questions on your recent ammo restriction policy regarding steel-jacketed projectiles: Why after operating the range for many years without a restriction on steel-jacketed projectiles do you believe such an ammunition restriction is now needed? Why have...

      Green Ops Defensive Pistol I Clinic AAR

      Nice review. I noted with interest your comment about a recent change concerning allowable ammo at the NRA Indoor Range: "The class was held at the NRA HQ range. It’s modern, it’s indoors, and run very professionally. I shoot there fairly regularly, so it’s a pretty comfortable spot for...
