This video demonstrates shooting a Kahr CT9 pistol at 100 yards, highlighting the challenge of maintaining accuracy at this distance. The presenter emphasizes that hitting the target consistently at 100 yards requires significant skill and is affected by factors like wind and shooter error, such as jerking the trigger. While the CT9 is deemed capable, the performance is attributed to the shooter's execution.
Shooting a pistol at 100 yards is challenging due to the need for precise aiming, wind impact, and avoiding shooter errors like trigger jerking. The Kahr CT9 is shown to be capable, but consistent accuracy relies heavily on the shooter's skill and stable execution.
This episode emphasizes that hitting targets at 100 yards and beyond with a carry gun is achievable and beneficial for overall marksmanship. The discussion highlights that mastering longer distances improves fundamental skills like trigger control, sight picture, and breathing, which in turn shrinks miss error at closer ranges. It advocates for deliberate practice, gradual distance progression, and understanding your firearm's capabilities to build confidence and enhance defensive shooting effectiveness.
This video by John G. Johnson introduces the 'Pen Drill,' a simple yet effective training exercise to improve trigger control and firearm accuracy. By using a clickable ballpoint pen, shooters can isolate and practice the mechanics of a smooth, consistent trigger press without the complexities of firearm recoil. The drill emphasizes minimizing unintended movement, which is crucial for accurate shooting.
This video by John G. Johnson, a firearms instructor, details how to stop flinching and improve accuracy. He explains flinching as an involuntary reaction to recoil and emphasizes the importance of a proper grip and trigger control. A key technique discussed is the 'Ball and Dummy Drill,' designed to help shooters identify and correct anticipatory flinching by mixing live rounds with dummy rounds in a magazine.
