"Cheek" pistol? PCC but you hold it up and lean in to aim with your cheek?

I was browsing a gun magazine in the store, and it caught my eye.

Ruger LC Charger 5.7x28 Cheek Pistol Review - Handguns

The new Ruger LC Charger 5.7x28 excels in the unorthodox role of cheek pistol. Using the cheek as a third point of contact when pistol shooting is the third dimension of shooting for the author.

It's unorthodox. Train with it. Not my cup of tea to try and learn one more way to shoot. It's teaching you how to shoot a pistol that is too big to be a pistol. I'll pass.

Pass.

I thought that was a dueling scar?

I've been watching Rhett's progress with this shooting technique on Pistol Forum for a couple of years now. He's gotten amazing results.

When AR pistols were first becoming a thing and before the pistol braces caught on, I used to cheek the buffer tube. That third pt of contact makes a huge difference in accuracy/control than just holding it in 2 hands.

I tried it (never owned a brace) with my 7.5in but went back to tension forward on a short sling. Mainly because I shot MP5K that way and was comfortable with it. I probably didn't give cheeking a fair shake and defaulted to comfort loop.

They need to make a quick connect picatinny buttstock adapter that can easily be taken off with a lever. That way a home owner doesn’t have to get themselves killed following a dumb ass law that serves no purpose.

Dumb.

IMO, they were made for the pistol brace crowd. Obviously, defunct now.

I've got a Ruger 10/22 charger that got turned into an SBR for free, now wears a side folding stock. This is the only acceptable answer for guns like that.

Here's an article I wrote about "cheeking" an AR pistol.....back in 2015! Surprised myself when I searched for it.

AR Pistol: Legitimate Combat Firearm or Novelty?

I am NOT an early adopter in anything. I don’t need the latest type of television, I didn’t run out and buy a BluRay player when they came out, and I only have an iPod because it was a gift. I like…

A couple years back a shooter at the club shot a Glock like that. Except he cheeked his wrist/lower forearm..somethong like that. Starting from the ready he was very fast.

LOL. Guess "Cheek pistol" is the new "almost SBR" till the instant the brace rule is tossed.
