Works for me. Huh? What does that even mean?

This video discusses how firearms instructors and students should evaluate which shooting classes are most valuable. Key factors include an instructor's ability to articulate concepts, their passion for shooting, and whether they offer a different perspective. The speakers emphasize that proficiency in teaching is more important than just being a top performer, and that genuine passion for the craft is evident. They also highlight the value of taking classes outside one's primary discipline to broaden skills.

Craig Douglas, founder of Shiv Works, emphasizes the importance of evaluating firearms instructors based on their motivation to 'do something' (serve others) versus 'be somebody' (seek personal glory). He advises looking for transparency, demonstrable skill improvement in students, and effective information conveyance. Douglas also highlights the value of instructors who are multi-modal problem solvers, possessing skills in shooting, fighting, and verbal communication.

Instructor Mike emphasizes the critical importance of selecting the right firearms instructor, particularly for concealed carry courses. He advocates for instructors who simulate realistic stress and chaos to prepare students for high-pressure situations, rather than those who prioritize comfort. True instructors instill discipline and focus on effectiveness in stopping threats, even if it means challenging a student's comfort zone.

This video demonstrates a high-level Bill Drill from concealment, executed by Scott Jedlinski of Modern Samurai Project in an impressive 1.91 seconds. It highlights the importance of a clean draw stroke, effective recoil management, and precise trigger control when shooting a red-dot equipped handgun. The drill emphasizes speed and accuracy at close range, showcasing advanced shooting techniques.

This guide, based on instruction from expert Scott Jedlinski of Modern Samurai Project, debunks the myth that a high bore axis on pistols like the Sig Sauer P320 inherently leads to uncontrollable recoil. It emphasizes that proper recoil management is primarily achieved through effective support hand engagement and grip, rather than being dictated by the bore axis height or beavertail design. The video demonstrates that with correct technique, firearms often criticized for their bore axis can shoot remarkably flat.

Scott Jedlinski, demonstrating high authority and expertise, emphasizes the critical role of the support hand in recoil control. Through live-fire demonstrations, he illustrates how a proper support hand grip, positioned high and applying inward pressure, significantly reduces muzzle flip, even surpassing the firing hand's contribution. This technique is crucial for advanced shooters seeking to maintain a flat shooting platform.

This guide details a training drill focused on improving red dot acquisition during the firearm draw, as instructed by Scott Jedlinski of Modern Samurai Project. It emphasizes correcting inefficient movements and building subconscious competence through high-speed practice and self-analysis. The drill is designed for intermediate shooters looking to enhance their speed and accuracy with red dot optics.
