World's Best Training Tip - Dry Fire Practice

World's Best Training Tip - Dry Fire Practice. A video about practicing when you cant get to the range. Dry fire is a great way to work on the fundamentals of grip, sight alignment, sight picture, trigger squeeze & follow thru.

I hope this helps.

this is good for shooting at paper. dont rely on your smooth trigger pull technics when your getting shot at and your adrenalines racing a hundred mph, you will find you have wasted your time.

best thing to do in a gun fight is shoot and move and keep repeating untill you or combatant arnt breathing.

@slingerrrrUSA1 So slapping or pulling the trigger (poor trigger control) w/ rounds landing 10 inches off target during paper drills will only get worse when you add adrenaline & movement. Remember this is only a PART of what is required to be a better shooter.

Once u can get that under control then work on movement, speed while maintaining accuracy. This is not an 'either, or' scenario, its part of the whole. If u cant get to the range its better than NOT training at all, but thats just me

@SafeArmsReview I always listen that is bad for firing pin to do dry fire, what do you think about?

[SafeArmsReview]

@elcorsarioglez Most modern firearms this is not a problem but you can always buy snap caps.

do you shoot with both eyes open?

[SafeArmsReview]

@backdraft216 Yes I can at short distances.

@SafeArmsReview Hey guys>> I notice that there are questions as to what, either Steve or other can do and do do.. (HEHE) The biggest thing to remember is to DO!!.. As I am not anyone other then me and it will be me in the situation (I pray not).. so personal standards must be set and reached.. Remember when we tried to make everybody right handed.. There is an opportunity to grow from pennies to spent shell to hollow points or any variation there in.. The key is making it instinctaul/reactive

What kind of pistol is that?  Very nice.

[cfleig]

@elcorsarioglez ...depends of the gun...glocks are OK...my Ruger SR9, you need the magazine in. Dry firing the Ruger SR9 without the mag can damage the firing pin (unless you remove the mag safety feature).

Very good vid, I use snap caps and dry fire all my guns, all but my .22 lr. Don't dry fire rim fire rifles and pistols and you should be ok

Great video!

@SafeArmsReview I read in the Beretta M9 manual that its bad for the gun to dry fire. Maybe they're just hedging their bets though?

[mr00jimbo]

Thank-you for this video, I found it very informative. :)

I tend to catch a lot of flinching when I dry fire, and I can iron it out by dry firing it often.

My 1911 (and most I think) has a rounded slide, so you can't actually put a case on the top without it immediately falling off!

[Dixielanddelite25]

@elcorsarioglez  You should read the manual for your firearm. There is a section in there that talks about dry firing your specific weapon and how to do it properly without damaging it.

How about one on a double action only semiauto?

[Boot2yourHead]
