Hello Tier II and Tier III,

This is the last part of the core pistol fundamentals series. This is one of the most important steps that is often overlooked. It is really important to develop good habits for fast and accurate followup shots if needed.

After every round I fire, I'm setting myself up for another shot if needed. One shot, two sight pictures. Two shots, three sight pictures. Always one more sight picture than the amount of shots.

Let me know any questions in the comments. We have some follow up videos and will be covering the draw next. Lots more in the works!

Cheers!

As always, adhere to all firearms safety rules and range commands/protocols at your facility. For more info on safety, see https://www.nrablog.com/articles/2015/7/the-rules-of-nra-gun-safety/

This seems to be especially important if you miss the first shot. Thanks for the great info

When you are training fundamentals is it always at 25 yards?

Derek Ferguson

When setting up for your shot, your sight picture is a blurred target and crisp front sight. When the muzzle flips after your shot, do you continue to look at the muzzle, or do you shift focus back to your target?

Also, this fundamentals series has helped me out a ton. I’m new to shooting, got my first handgun about two years ago. In the beginning I had no clue what I was doing, and I’d just go in my backyard and plink around. Now I go out and actually train the fundamentals. I make every single round count, and even though I have a long way to go, I feel that I’ve gotten a lot better by watching your vids and following your drills.

I like to train 25 yards frequently because it forces the shooter to have good fundamentals. But, starting closer and then stretching it out is a good way to build a strong base as well.

You would likely need to shift focus at some point to verify your hits but you want to remain on your sights. Also you might be able to see your hits out of your peripheral vision especially at most defensive distances.

I haven't watched a boring video yet from you. Always enjoy it. Thanks for another great video with practical insights into the "why".

Baylis

Wow, I’ve been blowing right through step 3 and wondering why I get so much muzzle flip/ grip problems (like losing it) That vid was a solid gold knowledge bomb!!

How to break through the bad habit of wanting to close down one eye and focus with one eye?

Eventually your eyes become trained to not squint the one. It sounds weird but it will become natural to have both eyes open.

Good morning, Brother. On the follow through, do you suggest doing your reset prior to reacquiring the sight picture or after? And thank you for what you do! I'm an Infantry Veteran and I still am learning a helluva lot from all of your videos and podcasts. Thank you again. And most definitely, thank you for your service!

Thank you for your service as well brother. With the reset, you want to reset as you’re re acquiring your sight. Technically before, but as you build the muscle memory and get used to it it will start to happen simultaneously.

Rush Andrews

Thanks, again. That helps a lot. Have an awesome day, Brother.
