Slow is Slow. Fast is Fast.

Ben Stoeger emphasizes precision over raw speed in target transitions. He advises focusing on a small spot on the target and letting the gun naturally follow your gaze, akin to using a mouse pointer. This technique, when mastered, allows for faster and more accurate transitions than 'driving' the gun or using physical cues like pointing thumbs. He suggests practicing for precision first, then gradually increasing speed while maintaining relaxation and control.

This video demonstrates the Tier One Concealed '3 Bill Drill,' a shooting exercise that combines three distances (15, 10, and 7 yards) into a single drill. The objective is to achieve all shots within the 'A' zone (center mass) at each distance, emphasizing both speed and accuracy. The instructor aims to push their speed while maintaining precision, showcasing a practical training method for improving handgun proficiency.

This drill, the 'One Shot Exit Drill,' focuses on precise single shots followed by immediate movement to a new position. It emphasizes efficient target acquisition, recoil management, and visual transition. The instructor highlights common mistakes like focusing on recoil instead of the bullet's exit and tensing up during movement, advocating for relaxed shoulders and leg-driven stops. The drill progresses from one shot to two shots for application in multiple-shot scenarios.

John G. Johnson, a firearms instructor, emphasizes the critical importance of 'follow-through' in shooting accuracy. He explains that many shooters ruin their shots by lifting their head or dropping their arms immediately after firing to see the impact. This fundamental technique involves maintaining sight alignment and keeping the pistol level after the shot breaks, preventing inconsistency and low impacts. Practicing drills like the 'pause drill' can help develop this essential skill.

This video analyzes common mistakes during a dynamic pistol drill at an indoor range, featuring an EDC Glock 19. The instructor, demonstrating experienced authority, highlights issues like a 'slow start,' forgetting to reload, and impatience with red dot sight acquisition. The content provides actionable insights for improving performance in timed shooting scenarios.

This video provides instruction on fundamental shooting techniques, focusing on proper trigger control and stance. The instructor emphasizes a slow, deliberate trigger press to the 'wall' and then a smooth release, while also advising against anticipating recoil. Stance adjustments, including leaning forward and bending knees, are demonstrated to improve stability and manage recoil effectively. The importance of efficient magazine changes is also highlighted.

This video from TREX ARMORY, featuring Lucas Botkin, critiques the trend of over-accessorizing firearms, particularly the Sig Sauer MCX. It highlights how excessive attachments can lead to impractical setups, especially for users who engage in high-volume training. The discussion focuses on the heat transfer issues associated with aluminum foregrips and the potential redundancy of certain mounting solutions.

This video from TREX ARMS focuses on maximizing value when purchasing an AR-15, emphasizing performance per dollar spent over simply choosing the cheapest option. Instructor Brandon highlights key components like upper receivers, lower parts kits, triggers, and optics, recommending specific brands and configurations that offer the best balance of cost and capability. The discussion covers different AR-15 roles (CQBR, SPR, GPR) and illustrates the concept of diminishing returns in firearm component upgrades.

This guide details the assembly of a budget-friendly AR-15 rifle, focusing on cost-effective component selection without compromising core functionality. The build prioritizes investment in critical parts like the barrel and BCG while saving on furniture and lower receivers. It highlights performance data, including accuracy with various ammunition types and the impact of heat on sustained fire accuracy.

This video provides a critical review of a $220 Chinese clone of the Vortex Razor 1-6 HD II. Lucas Botkin, an established firearms industry influencer, details the clone's significant performance shortcomings, including poor illumination, turret wobble, point-of-impact shift, and failure to hold zero under recoil. The review emphasizes that the clone is a poor value compared to the genuine article or even quality red dot sights.
