Frequently Asked Questions

How can I improve my pistol accuracy with a 30-day training plan?

A 30-day plan involves 50 daily dry fires focusing on trigger control and sight alignment. Progress to incorporating holster draws and the ball-and-dummy drill to identify and correct flinching. Use small targets and focus on precision when taking your time.

What are the key features of the new Ruger 57 pistol?

The Ruger 57 offers a soft-shooting experience with manageable recoil. It features optics-ready cutouts, an accessory rail, a slim ergonomic grip, and an easy-to-load steel magazine. It's also significantly more affordable than its predecessor, the FN 5.7.

How does the new Colt Python compare to the original?

The new Colt Python retains the iconic look and feel of the original but features updated internal workings for increased strength and a slightly improved trigger. It offers a modern, reliable revolver experience at a more accessible price point than vintage models.

What is the ball-and-dummy drill and how does it help?

The ball-and-dummy drill involves mixing clearly marked dummy rounds with live ammunition in a magazine. When a dummy round is encountered, it simulates a misfire, helping shooters identify and correct flinching, which is a common cause of inaccuracy.
