Cold start Jan. shootin pistol w/Gravy

This 10-minute dry fire routine, led by world champion Lena Miculek, focuses on building fundamental pistol skills. It incorporates drills for grip, draw stroke, trigger control, and presentation, emphasizing technique over speed. The routine includes dedicated grip-building exercises to strengthen shooting muscles and can be repeated for longer training sessions.

This video details a 'cold start' defensive shooting drill conducted in cold weather, emphasizing the importance of training under realistic stress. Experienced shooters demonstrate draw-to-first-shot sequences using shot timers, analyzing performance metrics and identifying areas for improvement in their Everyday Carry (EDC) setups. The session highlights the practical application of modified Glocks, including the Glock 19X with a Radian Ramjet and the Glock 17, for self-defense readiness.

This video addresses a common dry fire training challenge: assessing the effectiveness of target transitions without live fire feedback. The instructor emphasizes focusing on the smooth 'floating' of sights to the target and the impact of trigger press on sight stability. He advises that dry fire builds habits, and live fire is crucial for validating them, recommending a balanced approach to trigger press during dry fire drills.

This video demonstrates a speed shooting drill focusing on draw stroke and target acquisition from approximately 12 yards. The presenter aims to beat a personal best time of 0.97 seconds using a Grab Bags Renegade bag. While not looking at the target, the presenter emphasizes speed and relies on muscle memory for accurate shooting, achieving times as low as 1 second flat.

Joel Park, a professional firearms instructor, details methods for accurately assessing pistol index. He emphasizes isolating the draw and presentation from the trigger press to identify true index errors versus marksmanship faults. The guide includes drills for both index and trigger control, highlighting how equipment like custom triggers can influence training.

This video provides advanced firearm training focused on recoil management and sight tracking. Instructor Ben Stoeger emphasizes the importance of 'input' – the muscular effort to control the firearm's movement after recoil – over grip alone. Drills cover aggressive shooting to identify breakdown points, one-handed shooting for isolation, and cadence shooting for rhythm. The core message is to focus on precise aiming points and consistent control rather than just speed.

This video provides a detailed 1,000-round review of the BCM Mark 2 upper with the Raider M13 rail, highlighting its value in 2024. The presenter emphasizes its smooth shooting characteristics, reliability, and the benefits of the BCM recoil mitigation system. Various aftermarket upgrades and personal preferences, such as the Radian safety, Magpul BAD lever, and Geissele trigger, are discussed, offering insights for AR-15 builders.

This video provides an in-depth look at the BCM MK2 upper receiver and Raider handguard, highlighting its design features for enhanced rigidity, accuracy, and durability under hard use. The presenter details the suppressor-ready gas system, reinforced upper receiver, and the Raider handguard's rigid free-float platform. It also touches on the included BCM bolt carrier group and the decision-making process for choosing this upper over competitors.

This video provides an in-depth review and demonstration of a BCM AR-15 build, highlighting the performance benefits of the BCM Mark 2 recoil system. The presenter details the rifle's components, shares over 2,000 rounds of experience with zero malfunctions, and showcases its exceptionally flat shooting characteristics through live-fire drills. The video emphasizes the reliability and shootability of BCM products, particularly the Mark 2 system's ability to reduce felt recoil.

The BCM MK2 recoil mitigation system, featuring an extended rifle-length buffer tube, M16A2 buffer spring, and T2 buffer, significantly reduces felt recoil in an AR-15 platform. The system includes a new end plate with a QD sling mount and a new castle nut. The reviewer estimates a 40-50% reduction in recoil, leading to faster follow-up shots and improved target reacquisition.
