Frequently Asked Questions

What safety steps are taken before live fire shooting?

Before live fire, safety is paramount. This video shows dry-fire and airsoft training at home to teach basic safety rules like trigger discipline and muzzle awareness. At the range, eye and ear protection are mandatory.

What are common mistakes for new Glock shooters?

Common mistakes include 'trigger slapping,' where the trigger finger pulls sideways, affecting accuracy. Improper grip can also lead to 'slide bite,' where the slide cuts the hand. Proper coaching addresses these issues.

Which Glock model is best for beginners?

While subjective, the Glock 19X was found to be a favorite for a beginner due to its size and ease of handling. The Glock 43X is smaller but can be trickier, and the Glock 23 in .40 cal has more recoil.

How does caliber affect shooting experience?

Caliber significantly impacts recoil. The 9mm Glocks (43X, 19X) offer manageable recoil for beginners. The .40 S&W Glock 23 has a sharper, more pronounced recoil, requiring more practice to manage effectively.
