Videos tagged with Retention Position

This expert-level guide, presented by a professional firearms instructor from Tenicor, details a critical defensive shooting technique: aiming from a retention position. It debunks the myth that sights are misaligned in this stance and instead emphasizes the use of tactile indices like the thumb pectoral index, locked wrist, and high elbow to confirm aim without direct visual sight acquisition. A live-fire demonstration confirms the effectiveness of this method for accurate shooting under duress.
