This 10-minute dry fire routine, led by world champion Lena Miculek, focuses on building fundamental pistol skills. It incorporates drills for grip, draw stroke, trigger control, and presentation, emphasizing technique over speed. The routine includes dedicated grip-building exercises to strengthen shooting muscles and can be repeated for longer training sessions.

Rick Crawley, a law enforcement veteran, introduces the 'Man Card Drill,' a rigorous performance standard designed to test shooting proficiency under pressure. The drill involves timed pistol draws from compressed ready (1s) and holster (1.5s), rifle presentations from low and high ready (1s each), and a rifle-to-pistol transition (2.5s). Many participants struggle to meet these demanding par times, highlighting the importance of consistent, high-level performance on demand. The drill emphasizes that passing is about demonstrating capability, not just general shooting ability.

This video, presented by an NRA Instructor, details essential firearm ready positions for defensive scenarios. It emphasizes the importance of dry fire practice to develop muscle memory and safety. Key positions covered include High Ready, High Compressed, Low Ready, Low Compressed, Normal Compressed, and the Sool position, explaining their applications in various situations from home defense to close-quarters combat.

Rick Crawley, founder of Achilles Heel Tactical, details the 'Man Card Drill,' a challenging assessment designed to test practical pistol and rifle skills under pressure. The drill emphasizes speed, accuracy, and fundamental execution from various ready positions and includes a rifle-to-pistol transition. It's presented as a critical standard for law enforcement and a benchmark for serious shooters, with specific par times for each stage.

This comprehensive training course, led by expert instructors from GBRS Group and Flintlock Training Group, covers advanced pistol and rifle techniques. Key areas include mastering grip for intuitive aiming, efficient recoil management, target tracking, and dynamic movement drills. The course emphasizes safe and effective transitions between rifle and pistol, as well as proper gear utilization and ready positions for tactical scenarios.

This video addresses how to prepare for a first practical shooting match with limited range access, emphasizing that many essential skills can be practiced without live fire. Key takeaways include mastering firearm safety and operation, practicing gun manipulation like drawing from a holster and changing magazines, and understanding safe movement around a stage. The instructor highlights that accuracy and fundamental skills are more critical for a first event than speed, and that practice with a single target and rapid fire is highly effective.

This video demonstrates the 'compressed ready' firearm presentation technique. It emphasizes establishing a solid shoulder pocket, using a smooth twisting motion to bring the firearm to the eyeline, and maintaining contact with the shoulder throughout the presentation for speed and control. The technique aims for quick and accurate deployment, especially in dynamic situations.

This video demonstrates essential pistol warm-up drills focusing on trigger control and sight alignment. Instructor 'Dutch' emphasizes maintaining a live on the trigger wall, using the full finger pad for consistent breaks, and practicing freestyle, strong-hand-only, and weak-hand-only shooting from a compressed ready position. The drills are designed for confidence building and instructor assessment of shooter fundamentals.

This video focuses on CQB (Close Quarters Battle) shooting techniques, specifically demonstrating the 'Compressed Ready' stance. It emphasizes the importance of maintaining a stable shooting platform and good concealment while navigating confined spaces, such as moving around corners or through doorways. The instructor highlights how this technique enhances body stabilization and stiffens the wrists, beneficial for all shooting applications. The description also includes mentions of self-defense carry, US Lawshield for legal protection, and links to supporting Tactical Rifleman via Patreon and their Amazon shop for gear.

This live-fire drill, led by Miles from Tactical Hyve, focuses on developing a passive shooting stance by using dummy rounds to test recoil anticipation. The exercise involves firing a mixed magazine of live and dummy rounds from a compressed ready position, emphasizing minimal body input and consistent trigger manipulation. Dummy rounds serve as a test to reveal and correct anticipatory movements, promoting a relaxed stance that allows recoil to happen naturally.

This guide details a live fire drill for improving pistol accuracy, building on dry fire fundamentals. Expert instructor Miles emphasizes slow, deliberate mechanics, proper trigger control to avoid sight disruption, and controlled follow-through. The drill progresses from basic mechanics to gradually increasing speed and distance while maintaining accuracy, crucial for developing effective shooting skills.

This guide details a dry-fire technique for improving pistol accuracy, focusing on trigger control without disrupting sights. Instructor Myles emphasizes finding the trigger's wall, isolating the trigger finger, and practicing trigger reset. The series format includes dry fire on Mondays and live fire on Fridays to validate skills.
