This video by John G. Johnson of Firearms Training By John G. Johnson focuses on diagnosing and fixing common accuracy issues, specifically shooting low and left. The instructor emphasizes that proper grip and trigger press are responsible for approximately 90% of accuracy problems. He details a high, wrapped grip with locked thumbs and a 'press' rather than 'pull' trigger action as key to achieving consistent accuracy. The video also touches on sight picture and the 6 o'clock hold for precise aiming.

This video by John G. Johnson, a firearms instructor, simplifies pistol accuracy into three core components: Hold, Control, and Press. He emphasizes that shooting is more mental than physical and that mastering these three elements will make accuracy achievable. The instruction covers proper grip techniques, including hand placement and thumb positioning, to ensure stability and control. It also details a smooth trigger press, contrasting it with a detrimental 'pull,' and introduces methods for engaging core muscles to further stabilize the firearm during the shot.

This video provides a fundamental aiming technique for new shooters engaging steel targets. By dividing the target into thirds and aiming for the top third, inexperienced shooters can better compensate for common errors like shooting low and left, effectively making the target larger and increasing the probability of a hit.

This video demonstrates a practical range day focused on evaluating shooting accuracy and managing a working dog. Expert John "Shrek" McPhee showcases the importance of electronic hearing protection and analyzes a tight shot group, offering insights into focus and dog handling during live fire exercises. The session highlights techniques for assessing performance and maintaining control in a dynamic environment.

Firearms Instructor John G. Johnson emphasizes that grip problems lead to inconsistent front post movement, directly impacting shooting accuracy. He plans to demonstrate both correct and incorrect pistol grips to visually educate viewers on the critical role of a proper grip. This instructional content is geared towards improving fundamental shooting skills.

This guide, based on instruction from John G. Johnson, emphasizes the critical role of proper pistol grip in achieving accuracy. Johnson, an expert in firearms training, highlights that 99% of shooters grip their pistols incorrectly, leading to accuracy issues. The core principle is to ensure the two primary points of contact on the pistol are managed correctly for optimal control, which directly impacts the stability of the front sight post and overall shot consistency.

This video by John G. Johnson, a firearms instructor, emphasizes that 99% of shooters grip their pistols incorrectly, leading to accuracy issues. He demonstrates the proper 'two thumbs forward' grip, starting with the pinky finger and ensuring the dominant hand is high on the tang. This technique aims to provide better control and consistency, allowing the firearm to remain level during the shot and improving overall accuracy.

This video features a "Battle of the 1911s" where five different models are tested and compared. The firearms instructor and participants evaluate each pistol based on shooting performance, feel, and accuracy. Key takeaways include the performance of a new Dan Wesson Specialist, the historical significance of a WWII Remington Rand, and the shooting characteristics of various 1911 platforms.

This video explains the concept of eye dominance and its importance in shooting accuracy. It provides a simple test to identify your dominant eye and discusses how red dot sights can mitigate issues related to cross-dominance, particularly on rifles. The presenter, Shortshot Tony, offers practical advice for improving shooting consistency.

This video details modifications to a budget-friendly JeForce Arms JW 9mm Pistol Caliber Carbine (PCC). The instructor demonstrates adding a tactical brace for better shoulder contact, a muzzle brake for recoil reduction, a flat-faced trigger from Rise Armament for improved precision, and a hand stop for enhanced grip. The firearm is noted for its reliability, having never malfunctioned during testing.

This video highlights eight key benefits of carrying a revolver, arguing they are often overlooked in favor of modern semi-automatic handguns. The instructor emphasizes revolvers' superior reliability, simplicity of operation, and the unique advantage of offering both double-action and single-action trigger modes. Additional benefits discussed include their inherent safety without a manual thumb safety, exceptional durability over time, a wider range of powerful calibers, potential for greater accuracy in single-action mode, and the overall enjoyment of shooting them.

This video from Chris Sajnog, a leading firearms instructor and best-selling author, explains the critical importance of identifying your dominant eye for shooting. Understanding which eye your brain prioritizes for visual processing is key to achieving quick and accurate shots, as firearms naturally align with this dominant eye. Sajnog highlights that the non-dominant eye may have weaker vision and can sometimes try to overwork, emphasizing the need to know your dominant eye for optimal performance.
