Videos tagged with Holster Draw

This video details a training drill focused on improving the time between shots, known as 'splits'. Pat Mac emphasizes objective self-critique, focusing on recoil management and muzzle whip to achieve consistent and faster follow-up shots. The drill involves series of shots from the holster, with feedback mechanisms to adjust pace based on performance.

This video details two firearm training drills: a dynamic movement drill and a static drill called the 'All Hands Drill' developed by Ernest Langden. The dynamic drill emphasizes efficient movement, entering and exiting shooting positions, and speed. The 'All Hands Drill' focuses on developing proficiency in both strong and support hand shooting, as well as overall firearm manipulation and reloads. Key takeaways highlight the importance of grip, vision, and efficient movement for improving performance.

This video demonstrates the challenges of drawing a firearm from a holster during a close-quarters confrontation, highlighting how a new holster can increase draw time. The speaker emphasizes the importance of training to overcome these delays, even when facing an assailant who has already engaged.

This video discusses a recent ban on SIG Sauer P320 firearms at the Southern Utah Practical Shooters (SUBS) range due to an alleged uncommanded incident. The ban creates a conflict as SUBS is scheduled to host USPSA Nationals, where P320s are typically allowed. The speaker speculates on the potential for a waiver for the Nationals and discusses the ongoing concerns surrounding P320 malfunctions.

This video emphasizes the critical distinction between performance-based and outcome-based training, particularly in shooting drills. The instructor, drawing from sports psychology principles, advocates for focusing on the process of executing shots accurately (performance) rather than solely on achieving a specific result like a fast time (outcome). By prioritizing correct technique and accuracy, students can overcome 'over-trying' and ultimately improve their speed and overall effectiveness. The book 'With Winning in Mind' by Lanny Bassham serves as a primary reference for these concepts, highlighting how mental management and focusing on the process lead to better results in shooting and life.

This video provides three essential shooting drills for individuals with limited time on the range, focusing on practical application for everyday carry firearms. The instructor emphasizes returning to fundamentals like sight alignment and trigger press at 25 yards, practicing the draw stroke from the holster with proper grip and presentation, and integrating shooting with movement to cover. The drills are designed to build muscle memory for stressful situations and improve overall shooting proficiency.

This video details a pistol training day focusing on practical drills with a Glock 17 Gen 5 equipped with an X300 weapon light and Trijicon night sights. The instructor emphasizes the importance of consistent training for personal and family safety, normalizing practice with carry or duty firearms. Drills include 'one reload twos' and simulated adverse conditions like sand ingress, highlighting the need for proficiency and gear reliability under stress. The session also touches on managing shooter fatigue and maintaining a good grip during dynamic shooting.

This video introduces the rare Glock 19P (Practice) and 19R (Reset) models, designed for safe, realistic training. The 19P is a non-firing replica for holster drills and close-quarters combat practice, emphasizing firearm safety by being incapable of chambering live rounds. The 19R is a serialized firearm with modified internals allowing for dry-fire practice, focusing on trigger control and sight alignment without the need to rack the slide between shots. Both are presented as valuable collector's items and training tools, not available in the general civilian market.

This video highlights several often-overlooked dangers and limitations of indoor shooting ranges, contrasting them with the benefits of outdoor ranges. It discusses lead exposure from primers, the impact of noise levels on hearing, the mixed skill levels present, and the inability to practice essential skills like drawing from a holster. The speaker, an experienced firearms instructor, advises on mitigation strategies and advocates for more accessible outdoor shooting facilities.

This video documents the seventh USPSA competition for a shooter aiming for 'A' class or above within 12 months. The shooter focuses on improving transition speed, footwork, and split times, drawing on feedback from previous competitions. Key takeaways include the importance of stage planning, efficient holster draws (adopting the 'scoop' method), and managing firearm safeties. The shooter also discusses specific firearm preferences and challenges with the CZ Shadow 2, particularly its safety placement and magazine design.

This video demonstrates various firearm transition and ready drills, emphasizing speed and accuracy. It covers techniques for moving between compressed, high, and low ready positions, as well as efficient reloads and target transitions. The content includes specific drills like the 'dope drill' for practicing accuracy at different distances and the 'build drill' for rapid target engagement and reloads, suitable for intermediate shooters looking to improve their competitive or tactical performance.

This video explains and demonstrates predictive shooting, a technique focused on anticipating the firearm's behavior for rapid, accurate fire. The instructor, demonstrating expert-level proficiency, emphasizes consistent actions to predict outcomes, rather than confirming each shot. This method is crucial for achieving high-speed shooting paces, such as the 1.97 seconds shown for multiple shots, without hesitation.
