So what handgun would you like to see in the hands of soldiers in war? Also, if you know, what gun do the soldiers around you want, since it's being replaced.
@benkerr69 Actually our unit was never assigned to a big fob. Our Company operated independently of the Battalion and Brigade AO. We always had our on AO. This particular one was a hotel that we took over and made our own firing range. It was about the size of 2 football field placed side by side. Every deployment I went on with this company was like this. Tents and Hescos. That's it.
@claudiobenassi85 A lot of people don't like the design and function. It's a dated design, admittedly. It's not my first choice for personal ownership, even though I've had one before, but it is a good firearm. A lot of people don't like the 9mm round as well.
@ronin1018 Yeah I can agree with that. I know the m9 in every single part of it, and love the aestetics, plus I'm italian :) but still there's plenty of nicer stuff around. And yes, imho the best caliber would be a modern imrpovised version of the 10mm. All handguns have too much old designs anyway to handle such a punch, but if somebody cared there would be a new concept of offensive pistol. Oh well better to invest technology in other fields anywyas...
good shooting, once fundamentals are well founded, mainly grip and trigger control, this action truly becomes instinctive, I will agree with your advanced comment due to the fact that shooters who have neither a proper grip or trigger finger placement and control, through training and practice, can't even hold a group standing still no matter how much sight picture and alignment they have. Add stress and movement....not even close to effective fire, pray and spray. oohrah!
and they said that u could run better w the russian version the spetsnaz carry on deadliest warrior and shoot better and more accurate?...hmmmm idk i think the green berets took it
Point shooting isn't especially advanced. I think most would say it's the exact opposite. One handed unsighted fire at very close range, two handed unsighted fire at just farther than point blank, and conventional sighted fire at anything farther than the aforementioned seven yards. You trade precision for instinctive speed.
Agreed, it's the exact opposite of advanced, to those that are trained. Get a newbie in there and tell them to run a course, during a stress fire, they'll think different, especially the targets smaller than 4 inches or you put non-combatants into play. It's actually quite natural to simply point a gun at something, pull the trigger and hit the target within 7 meters. It gets really hard when you're in combat the targets you are shooting at, shoot back as well. I'll guarantee that lol.
Well, consider that point shooting is primarily meant for close range shooting. And, even if point shooting is harder under stress, so is every other kind of shooting. The fact that point shooting relies mainly on instinct makes it easier,doesn't it?
Yep, as long as that instinct is honed. Most beginning shooters don't have the proper muscle memory and their instinct to close their eyes, "pull the trigger", and flinch takes over. I had a beginner student once telling me he could shoot. He was coming from an airsoft background and used to a 2 lb trigger pull lol you should've seen his groups. But I agree, for me, point shooting within 15 meters is easier, more natural, and smoother than precision fire outside of 25,50, & 75 meters.
Personally, if I'm shooting with one hand it's only because of the direction I'm moving or the obstacles around me, i.e. moving from right to left quickly from cover to cover. It doesn't really matter what distance for me as long as it's within 25 meters. Outside of 25 meters I will almost always slow it down a bit and get a good sight picture.
@John234pwns It is more advanced than just standing still firing down range at paper targets. so in my book this drill is advanced compared to the typical suburban range shooter.
@John234pwns I think that if you were to design a training progression you would start with "proper" sighted shooting to develop proper grip, trigger pull, etc. and then once the basics of manipulation are understood and performed competently, you start training in instinctive shooting. In sum: if based on complexity of action, instinctive shooting is simpler, but an advanced stage of pistol marksmanship training.
@tobitadagon In retrospect I really have to agree, since you have to know the basics of stance, clean trigger pull and the basics of shooting down pat before you can run it at high speed confidently.

ronin1018 2 years ago
Oh, yeah, I totally get what you mean. New shooters have to learn the basic rules and fight flinch, before delving into any school of shooting.
Out of curiosity, what range do you shoot with one hand and unsighted fire, and where do you transition to sighted fire, personally?

Makes sense, modifying the style to your needs. Combining weaver and isosceles, for example.
