This video by Ben Stoeger explains the concept of 'input' in firearm manipulation, differentiating it from grip. It emphasizes that proper return to target is achieved through controlled input from the arms, not just hand pressure. Stoeger demonstrates how different firearms, from Glocks to a compensated Staccato, require varying amounts of input to return to the point of aim, advocating for 'less is more' to achieve consistent accuracy.

This video provides a first look at the Smith & Wesson M&P Shield Plus Carry Comp, focusing on its performance in the '5x5 Drill'.

This video explains the concept of bore axis in pistols and its direct impact on muzzle rise and recoil management. A lower bore axis, where the barrel is closer to the shooter's hand, reduces the leverage for muzzle flip. Conversely, a higher bore axis, like on the Desert Eagle, exacerbates muzzle rise due to the mechanics of the slide's reciprocating mass. The presenters demonstrate this with various firearms, highlighting how a lower bore axis contributes to flatter shooting and better recoil control, especially in competition.
