Cold FAST In Richmond Class

This YouTube video features Ben Stoeger demonstrating or discussing the FAST drill. The description provides links to in-person classes, digital coaching, Ben Stoeger's books on Amazon, and a podcast from Practical Shooting Training Group (PSTG). This content is geared towards individuals interested in improving their practical shooting skills and competitive shooting performance.

This video showcases a personal record time of 3.7 seconds for the FAST drill, achieved during an AIWB (Appendix Inside the Waistband) class. The instructor, impressed by their students' dedication, agreed to perform the drill at the end of the session. The description highlights a focus on sub-4-second times and mentions several brands associated with the training and equipment, including PHLster, Agency Arms, and Fireclean.

This YouTube video focuses on the FAST drill, a common drill used in practical shooting and defensive pistol training. The description provides links to in-person classes and digital coaching from Practical Shooting Training Group (PSTG), as well as Ben Stoeger's books on Amazon and the PSTG podcast. While the specific firearm is not detailed, the content clearly aligns with competitive and defensive pistol training methodologies.

This video demonstrates an advanced concealed carry technique: the Bill Drill from concealment, executed by Scott Jedlinski of Modern Samurai Project. He achieves an impressive 1.91-second time for six shots from a red-dot equipped handgun in an AIWB holster, highlighting efficient draw mechanics and recoil control. This drill is a benchmark for speed and accuracy under pressure.

The common excuse of a high bore axis negatively impacting recoil control on pistols like the Sig P320 is largely a myth. Recoil management is primarily dictated by the support hand's grip, not the firearm's bore axis height. Demonstrations show that proper technique allows for flat shooting and quick recovery, even with firearms often criticized for this perceived flaw.

This video emphasizes the critical role of the support hand in firearm control, particularly for recoil management. Scott Jedlinski demonstrates that proper support hand grip mechanics, positioned high above the bore axis, can significantly reduce muzzle flip, even to the point of making the gun shoot flat with both hands. The demonstration highlights that the support hand is the primary driver of stability, challenging conventional wisdom.

This video addresses the common issue of failing to acquire the red dot sight during a pistol draw. Instructor Scott Jedlinski explains that 'useless frenetic motion' like excessive head movement or rigid arms causes this. He recommends high ready presentation drills to build muscle memory and subconscious competence. Training at high speed is crucial for exposing and correcting technical flaws.
