    I practice this by leaving one chamber empty, with my revolver. I spin the cylinder, so I don't know which round is a dud. This will show if you have a flinch, every time. Dry fire practice is a very good drill. Just make sure that you are gripping your gun firmly, as if you are firing live rounds. Most people relax their grip too much, when dry fire practicing. This creates BAD practice habits, that don't translate well, into "live" practice.

    Ditto. In my double action-only revolvers, my variation includes randomly alternating .357 Magnum and .38 Special, or, in .38 Special-only revolvers, alternating standard pressure and +P rounds, along with leaving an empty chamber. Easily reveals whatever flaws I've developed from lack of practice or bad habits.

  • @ComprehensiveContext

    This exercise has one big drawback: the shooter knows whether the gun is going to go off. For the best results, load a magazine with a random mix of live and dummy ammo (snap caps). Then the shooter has no idea whether the next trigger pull will be bang or click. Much more honest responses! Additional benefit: No dry fire damage on any gun, so long as snap caps are used for the dummy ammo.

    This would work even better if you have a shooting partner load your mag with live and dummy rounds because subconsciously you'll know when or about when you'll come to a dummy round. Thing to remember though is when doing this drill with or without a partner, when you here the "click" instead of the "boom" you need to treat it as a misfire/stovepipe and give it a few seconds before opening the breach. Just a little safety tip to keep in mind.

    Did not know about the waiting period. Seems like a lot of videos stress rapid clearance/ejection of a misfired round. I assume your warning concerns the possibility that the round will delay fire and operate the action resulting in injury?

  • @WallaceDunn

    Yes Hokie That's a pretty basic type of malfunction. You could have a round that's going to "cook off" and fire just as you open the breech, then all the gas and flame comes out at you instead of going down the barrel as designed.

    Personally I use this setup. 1. Twin targets a couple feet apart. 2. 5 magazines. 3. Have friend load the mags with a random amount of rounds in each mag. 4. You have to hit each target twice in a row before switching to the other one. 5. Dump and slap in a new mag as soon as the one you are using is dry. 6. Make sure to hit each target twice before moving to the other. Even with mag changes. 7. Go back and forth between targets until all mags are empty. 8. Start slow and as you improve increase spead. 9. Practice right and left handed, one and two hand grips. 10 vary the range of the targets as you improve so you don't get use to any one distance. You never know what shape you will be in when you need to react so keep changing things up with both hands, grips, and ranges. I also use several different types, and calibers of pistols for this. Never fear walking in dark alleys again. Hopefully never have to use it but when you do you will be ready.

    Cole fyre I would recommend a beginner to stay at about 10-15 yards and slowly work on the basic fundamentals of grip, stance, and sight picture/trigger control. Once you can accurately engage targets without missing at that distance you can slowly over time increase speed. After you can hit every target without missing I'd recommend increasing distance. I think shooting steel targets is great for beginners. Once you improve move to paper and steel.

    If you're an avid shooter, if you carry concealed, or if you're in any type of law enforcement, try to get up (or down depending on where you live) to the Sig Academy. These guys are complete professionals and they'll have you dialed in in a few days. They're beasts and experts with a firearm. Also, they provide the most up-to-date firearms tactics... you won't be disappointed. I also appreciate the fact that they hold you accountable for your mistakes while on the range (at least when it comes to law enforcement). Chances are you'll be doing pushups or carrying a (pretend) casualty if you do something dumb. It was a tough but a very informative week up there and it definitely made me a better gun fighter... Thanks you Sig Academy!

    Awesome tip. This immediately improved my accuracy very noticeably. I didn't have to track down snap caps on the floor or hope they didn't fly past the firing line (lost several that way!), and for some reason this was even more effective than mixing in dummy rounds randomly. I think the deliberate dry fire mixed in with every other trigger pull made a big difference.

    Good drill, as far as it goes. I would have liked to see him mention grip and making all fingers pull straight back as you take a firing grip. And also trigger fit; many trigger problems are due to people pulling back at odd angles, the trigger at different points on their finger each shot, etc. And finally, no mention of follow through, continuing to pull the trigger back until it stops. A great aid to stability and accuracy.

    This is hands down one of the best shooting drills I use. The add on to this drill that I use with my shooters is to shrink the split time between shot and dry fire. As the shooters get more advance and the flinch goes away when they are thinking about it, have them press the trigger twice faster with each successful iteration until they can double tap without a pre-ignition push.
