Joel Park, a firearms instructor, discusses the challenges and realities of switching between different firearm platforms. He emphasizes that making all guns feel the same is often a flawed goal due to inherent differences in grip angle, controls, and ergonomics. While some fundamental shooting skills transfer, mastering a new platform requires dedicated practice to learn its specific nuances, such as disengaging safeties or managing unique features like magwells. Park advises focusing training on a primary competition or duty firearm to build proficiency, rather than dividing time across multiple platforms, especially when preparing for specific events.
