OPSGEAR® TACTICAL TIP: Close Contact Handgun Drill

[PDunkel66]

Great vid, although I was taught by my LEO buddys that after you pull the firearm and fire from the hip to (for lack of better words) brace the firearm against your chest while creating distance between you and your target, then at 15-20ft fully extending your arms.

just watched somebody shoot himself in the leg with this drill, it was, interesting ...

@ProjectDexter yeah saw that vid as well. I've been doing this drill for years and it is true, its one of the more dangerous ones but as long as you have trained properly, you should be fine. Just remember, on target finger on trigger - off target finger off trigger... that vid, the guy had his finger on the trig way too soon.

I like this drill. My chcl instructor had us do this drill. He has a range that he does his classes at because the drills he does can't be done on a real range. My favorite drill is close range 3 target drills. He is retired military and teaches a lot of your teachings. Like getting off the X. I love your tips. Keep up the good work.

Nice but next time put your target on some card broad some holes in the card broad old shoe strings and hang it up.

[Quinton101]

where are you guys shooting at? looks like the range at Get Some Guns.

[operationsmedia]

@Quinton101 You nailed it!

[Quinton101]

@operationsmedia very nice, i like to go there, but i think their range prices are way to expensive. but i do like the fact i can rent firearms too.

[bergi85]

@operationsmedia Have you shot at the new Orem location? I live down here and it's a really nice facility.

[operationsmedia]

@bergi85 Not yet. It looks nice from the fwy! We'll have to check it out.

[bergi85]

@operationsmedia It's way bigger than the other location, but the firing range looks to be about the same size. I heard they might be putting in another range for handguns only. Kinda cool.

[Springr1911]

what model 1911 are you using here?

[operationsmedia]

@Springr1911 Nighthawk :)

[weaponeer]

well done

[Arathyn]

Does anyone know what kind of holster he is using in this video?

[operationsmedia]

Jager is using an Uncle Mike's Kydex Paddle Holster.

Thanks for watching. BTW-You can get one on our website at OPSGEAR.com

[SafeArmsReview]

Cool vid. Interesting drill. Just remember stats show that it takes up to 30 seconds & sometimes longer for a threat to go down from 'extreme lead exposure'. Personally I would empty the clip into the threat, but thats just me.

Keep up the good work.

:)

@SafeArmsReview What are you doing over here Steve shouldn't be working out...LOL BTW I like the CD trick shot video's this morning. Peace:)
