How to Practice Two hand 🔫 Grip without the 🔫 (Just Another Way)

This guide, presented by a firearms instructor, emphasizes the importance of realistic dry fire practice. It strongly advises against racking the slide after each trigger pull, as this develops poor muscle memory. Instead, it recommends using tools like the DryfireMag to achieve a resettable trigger, enabling realistic follow-up shot practice and improving overall training effectiveness.

Instructor Mike emphasizes developing an instinctive firearm grip through repetitive practice, focusing on tactile feedback and muscle memory rather than overthinking. The technique involves establishing a solid one-handed grip first, then building a strong two-handed grip by wrapping the support hand and ensuring proper palm heel contact. Consistent repetition of drawing and lowering the firearm, while maintaining forward eye focus, is key to mastering this technique.

This training video, presented by an NRA Instructor, covers essential firearm ready positions for defensive situations. It emphasizes the critical role of dry fire practice in developing muscle memory without live ammunition. Key positions like High Ready, Low Ready, and their compressed variations are detailed, along with the specialized Sool position for close-quarters engagements. The instruction highlights safety protocols and the practical application of these techniques for gun owners.

This video offers expert advice on diagnosing and fixing shooting problems without overcomplication. Lead Firearms Instructor Joel Park emphasizes that shooting improvements are an ongoing process, akin to patching leaks in a ship. He stresses the importance of addressing one habit at a time due to limited cognitive focus during shooting and advocates for video analysis as a crucial tool for objective assessment, highlighting the discrepancy between perceived and actual shooting mechanics.

This guide, presented by Jarod from GUNBROS, details how to perform effective dry fire practice. It emphasizes replicating live-fire trigger control, feeling the trigger wall, and mastering the reset. Improper 'commando style' dry firing is discouraged as it builds bad habits and degrades shooting performance. The instruction highlights the importance of consistency and proper technique for improving accuracy.

This video demonstrates a high-intensity training drill focused on magazine loading under simulated stress, led by Instructor Mike. The drill emphasizes correct procedure, terminology ('round' vs. 'bullet'), and the importance of visual aids like the Maglula UpLULA loader. The goal is to build muscle memory and self-correction skills necessary for high-pressure defensive situations.

This video demonstrates a compliant and safe method for Illinois concealed carriers to interact with law enforcement during a traffic stop. Instructor Mike emphasizes keeping hands visible, informing the officer about the firearm's location, and presenting identification and permits via a lanyard to avoid sudden movements. The officer recognizes Mike from his educational content, validating his teaching methods.

Instructor Mike strongly advises against storing firearms in vehicle locations like the sun visor, door pocket, under the leg, seat gap, or glove box due to poor accessibility and security. He emphasizes that carrying on the person, specifically in the appendix position (AIWB), is the most recommended method for quick access and retention, especially in carjacking scenarios. Demonstrations use a blue inert training pistol for safety.

This video highlights the critical importance of situational awareness and proper gear for off-duty law enforcement officers working side jobs. Instructor Mike demonstrates how easily an inattentive officer, distracted by a phone and wearing limiting clothing with a poor-quality holster, can be approached unnoticed. The content emphasizes that while direct confrontation was avoided due to potential negative reactions, the observed vulnerabilities are a serious concern for officer safety.

This video demonstrates a traffic stop scenario involving Instructor Mike and a Chicago police officer. It highlights the importance of maintaining visible hands during an interaction and provides a practical example of how to communicate effectively with law enforcement. The officer issues a warning for a missing license plate, emphasizing the need for proper vehicle documentation.
