What to do if you're shooting to one side with Navy SEAL Chief Gordon Evans

Chris from Regular Guy Training explains his handgun zeroing process, emphasizing starting at 3 yards to establish height over bore and windage before moving to the final zero distance (typically 25 yards). He details how to measure and adjust sights, and the importance of understanding personal shooting tendencies for consistent accuracy.

This video emphasizes the paramount importance of trigger pull in achieving shooting success. According to a former police firearms instructor, a good trigger pull can compensate for other deficiencies in shooting form, while a poor one will consistently lead to poor results. Mastering the trigger press is presented as the single most critical element for accurate shooting.

This video emphasizes that the fundamental secret to better shooting lies in mastering trigger pull. Instruction from experienced individuals, including a former magazine editor, highlights that focusing on this basic technique simplifies all other shooting aspects. Realistic self-assessment against peers, rather than superhuman talents, is encouraged for effective progress.

This guide details a smooth trigger press technique for striker-fired firearms, emphasizing finding the pre-travel and the wall before applying a continuous, even pressure. Instructor John Lovell of Warrior Poet Society stresses avoiding a 'Hulk smash' or 'prep and crank' method, advocating for a controlled cadence to improve shooting accuracy. Consistent practice of this technique is crucial for eliminating trigger jerking.

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 guide, drawing on expert instruction, emphasizes the convergence of competitive and tactical shooting. It advocates for integrating principles from both disciplines to enhance overall firearm proficiency. The core message is that effective training focuses on achieving accurate and fast target engagement, regardless of the specific context, by avoiding artificial limitations and practicing sound marksmanship fundamentals.

This guide details the automated progressive reloading process for 9mm Luger cartridges, as demonstrated on a Mark 7 Reloading Evolution Autodrive. It covers brass preparation, component loading (primers, powder, bullets), and the operation of a fully automated press that performs multiple steps simultaneously for high-volume production. The process emphasizes efficiency and speed, achieving a rate of 1,902 rounds per hour.

This video demonstrates a sniper stalk training exercise led by a former Navy SEAL sniper instructor. The drill focuses on stealth, camouflage using natural vegetation, and moving to a firing position undetected. The exercise highlights the importance of observation and the challenges of locating a well-camouflaged stalker.

This video humorously demonstrates a 'backup plan' for when a semi-automatic handgun runs dry. After depleting the magazine and the slide locking back, the shooter resorts to throwing a rock at the target. While presented satirically, it highlights the importance of situational awareness and creative problem-solving, albeit in a non-standard manner. The content creator, Tactical Hyve, is known for tactical training content.

This guide, presented by Myles from Tactical Hyve, details essential pistol aiming techniques for beginners. It covers the critical concepts of sight alignment ('equal height, equal light') and sight picture, explaining different aiming holds like Center Hold and Combat Hold, particularly relevant for Sig Sauer firearms. The guide also differentiates aiming with iron sights versus red dot optics, emphasizing the importance of proper firearm zeroing for accurate shooting.
