Good tips. I'm a new shooter and training alot at my local range. It's a great range. They allow human likeness paper targets and rapid fire. All calibers and even shotguns. They don't allow drawing so I just practice 3rd position. I would not recommend the trigger finger isolation drill to a new shooter....but I'm a good 5000 rounds in so I might give it a try. Heading to the range momentarily and was looking for some drills to work on today.
I used to think those indoor range rule were ridiculous until a member of a birthday party group in the port next me put 2 rounds in my target. Now I’m like damn they need to tighten their s@@@ up around here
Two points hit home to me: 1) practice what you can, how you can. No excuses. Fundamentals; 2) instructors treat people with respect and not arrogance. Many videos have really hot shot named guys, who talk down. These videos are respectful. I learn so much. Thanks.
I love watching you teach so much, if you were in my town, I wouldn't train with anyone but you my man! I've learned and trained a lot watching you teach
The 27 dislikes for this video are the ones that put those bullet strikes in the ceiling, floor, walls, partitions, and probably their own leg. Great video, keep 'em coming.
One of the best informational videos that I have ever watched that can be applied to real life shooting circumstances. I can tell this man knows what he is teaching. Thank you!
@@TacticalRifleman no, my name is brYan. But “Eli has entered the chat” means he did exactly what you described in your video about being able to take down an active shooter from distance with a pistol a couple years after you made this video. Basically you foretold the future & Eli proved you right of needing that skill set. You wouldn’t happen to know what the winning mega millions numbers are gonna be for Tuesday do you? I could sure use that $790 million 🤣
I’m new to firearms and have to admit I’ve shooting without a plan. Watched a bunch of videos but this one makes a lot of sense, specially squeezing the trigger is my weakest point. Thanks for the advice.
Karl, your videos are paramount to assisting me be a better Platoon Sergeant. I use your POI and teaching methods to help train my guys more efficiently, i like to think I am very proficient in small arms tactics, but your videos have made everything that much better. You're stuff is icing on the cake. Keep up the good work, thanks for everything.
This helps out a lot of us Europeans here! Good tips and advice to start out for IPSC shooters here in europe, where training is very very limited when it comes to movement. I hope the fudds at my range won't tell me that i'm being dangerous when i'm shooting the non-olypmic way.
@@jpenna1976 I think it's about the whole Europe vs America. We generally have different priorities than a 200 years old 2nd amendment. edit: I live in Italy BTW. There's very little will to change things herere as far as I know. We can keep weapons but we need an expiring gun license that can be a bit expensive and time consuming. Ammo are regulated, and there are very few gun ranges.
I have a indoor range and a outdoor range. I pass the indoor range on my 5 mile commute to work and back and the out door range is literally next to my work. And public land is a 25 minute drive which is where i prefer. I do sometimes shoot at the indoor during winter. Its a couple years old and well maintained and convienient. Thanks for the tips so i can maximize my time and improve
Great video, something I'd like to mention if you have to use a restrictive range, talk to the people at the shop. Develop a relationship with them. They very well might ask you to come when it's slow and give you a little more room to work in. They might come out and rso you personally and that's fine. Be people, it can really do you some good. The trigger finger zero is something I will be trying when I get home today, thanks!
I had to have my girlfriend watch this so she can test this out....she says it makes sense....she said she doesn't feel comfortable carrying yet so I need to get her to shoot better so she will....I hope this works for her....thanks brother for all you do 👍👍
Start with some Dry-Firing Drills (games) at the house. Fastest Draw, Fastest Reload (use Dummy Rounds). Run a Dryfire App on your phone to give a "Go" Beep and a timed "Fail" Beep. Make it fun. The key to carrying a gun, besides accuracy, is for her to be comfortable with it. That doesn't come with firing 50rds every other month; it comes with handling a gun every day. Bring her to one of our Combat Pistol 101 courses. We have lots of women and couples / families attend. Great training and great bonding experience for both of you. I guarantee everyone leaves comfortable with their pistols after only one day. TR
Like all the info you give. We all need to be creative inthe indoor ranges. At a indoor range 2 days ago, no draw allowed. So I did 2 or 3 rounds per mag, second mag in holster. Start position 3 shoot until slide lock, pull second mag shoot to slide lock. Like the smiley face 😎.
Dude I love these guys for what it's worth this has a lot in common with skateboarding my only other passion haha. You can always push yourself to improve on your skills.
I regularly drive an hour and a half each way to my usual range for training (it's an outdoor IDPA range, I highly recommend anyone serious about shooting to try competition shooting). I wake up at 5am to go out shooting and don't get back until noon. I know that isn't practical for everyone, but I need to regularly stay sharp for my career so it's a trip I am more than willing to regularly make. I shoot my EDC pistol and my duty piece. If I can't go to that range, I dry fire instead. Dry fire every day, you can do a lot of these drills with dry fire. We are in a golden age of information for shooting, too. Plenty of resources online and apps you can put on your phone. Basically what I'm saying is: Once you find the right range for you, invest in it. I always take extra earpro and eyepro for guys who roll up. I bring IFAKs for booboos. I bring extra staples for the targets. You name it, I got it to help my range out on my own dime.
Excellent advice! I've gotten to where I shoot better on public land with steel targets. I'm not self-conscious of firing "too fast" and I like the reinforcement of the ding hitting steel.
The Gallery sportsman club and range in Denver Colorado is awesome. You need to prove yourself to an RO but then you are allowed to draw. Great people and a fun atmosphere
I'm always amazed at how fast people go to the range and shoot, pack up and leave. Personally I use to be one of those people. It's like shoveling down a great steak dinner and and getting out as fast as possible. Personally for me, I drill like this most of the time. It slows me down and makes me enjoy it more while getting better. I even go as far as to run a drill with just the amount of ammo I need. That way I'm forced to reload and think about what I just did and adjust. We all know how fast you can blow through ammo, accomplish nothing more to punch a lot of holes in the target and then regret not bringing more bullets. I use to be a "slam bam thank you ma'am" shooter. Now I pack up and have a cigarette... LoL Great tips and advice, thanks for sharing 👍
I am a new shooter aiming for competence and eventual EDC. This was great info and now both you and Lena Miculek are my (video) instructors. Thank you!! (I have a Sig p365 380.)
Thank you I need this!! New shooter that actually goes to the range often and see’s improvement my range officers push me hard. My groupings are getting tighter 5-6 inches at 10-15 yards with my CC (Hellcat in the house) but working on tightening my groups up and improving my distance!! Will definitely try this next range day which is soon!! Ammo’s getting reasonable again.
Loved the Louisville Armory. Got a chance to do some low light and CQB with the Tactical Rifleman. Proved to be slow, but smooth. LOL Thanks TR for the opportunity!
Thanks for the great info Karl. For a long time I didn't go to an indoor range because I thought I was above it. Well I tried it out and I couldn't be happier with my membership. While I can't do all the fun stuff I can still work on a lot of the fundamentals, and now I will make sure to work in these drills too! Thanks for everything.
I live in downstate NY. Ranges around here a twitchy as hell, a lot of the old guy gun shop attitude around here. These drills are great for my area. I get some solid trigger time in while still keeping things kosher for the fuddy RO’s
Also I seen the pistol was just empty and you didn’t rack a round in the chamber and Immediately went to tap rack bang. That’s the level of training I want to get to. Outstanding salt dog.
Excellent video. I always pick up a good tip in each video. Will incorporate in my training classes. Combat experience and common sense brings training to a new level. Thanks Karl!
So, I went on a kayaking trip over the Fourth of July. The host was a Great Guy named Karl, my sister in laws' Uncle. I knew of his RUclips channel and try to support it as much as I can. Anyway at the end of the trip he started telling us how to exit the kayaks and the precise way to climb the riverbank... as not to get hurt. I didn't listen and bashed my head on a canoe... I feel better and learned a lesson: If this guy(Karl) has a plan or a method that he feels is best, don't question it, he has thoroughly thought it through. I love the smiley face @ 25 meters.
Awesome stuff. Just joined a local indoor range recently and my first few trips were just simple practice getting used to the gun and whatnot. Heading there today and taking these tips with me. Subbed
Look, Karl will take hot shells off the damn forehead and not flinch an inch! THAT is why I watch Tactical Rifleman...it also may be the reason Karl has Dain Bramage but we still love him dammit! 💪🏼😉👍🏼
“If the only weapon you have on you is a pistol and you have to take a 50 m shot at an active shooter-“ thank god Eli Dicken did some old school bullseye shooting
Thanks for the great video will be doing this next time I go.to the range. I also have my own range at home so i will try it there also. Hope to come take a class soon tring to save the money now. Take care and God Bless
I like your advice. I am about to purchase first handgun for conceal carry and personal/home defense. I purchased one when I was in my 20s but had a different mind set, i.e. it’s cool to have one lol. I plan to appendix carry, so my thought process was drawing fast. If I can’t hit what I aim at, doesn’t matter if I get it out fast. I’m the one who could end up dead. I am an Army Veteran so I know gun safety just have to practice a lot to get used to handle a handgun. I shot an M16A1 and A2. And I appreciate the video, good stuff.
Thanks Karl. Love these drills. Did some a couple weeks ago and saw a lot of room for self improvement. I need to work on #4 the most. It's harder than it seems!
Karl, love all your videos you put out. Keep teaching us the little details we never think of. Also, could we have more stories from you. I really enjoyed you talking about those pilots and their "+/- 30 seconds or not at all". Made me think of how i can use that in my life.
useful vid, i shot guns growing up but never any training and bad gun handling was sent down through the generations of my family. after 20ish years of just having guns in my house i have picked up shooting again, taken classes pistol 1 and 2 from a local gun club. found out i have had poor grip for 30 years. and loads of poor habits to break. so guys, get some training first and any pistol second.
Great info and drills. I'm lucky that the indoor range I shoot at allows both draw and rapid fire, but that said I hardly shoot from the draw there... instead choosing to focus on the fundamentals when I go. Most of my draw practice happens during dry-fire at home.
great vid as always Karl. good to hear folks pushing the basics. I hate indoor ranges too. but you got to practice basics if you want to be adequate at the advanced stuff. side note. nice martin riggs impression.
Just wanted to let you know I've been subscribed for a while. (Not just here because of the other guys) You're teaching some great fundamentals in this video and touch on a lot of points many others on YT don't.
I hope every shooter on You Tube finds this video. I like shooting out at the forest land, but hate the range. Now, I can't wait to get back to the range!
Awesome as always, thanks Karl and Krew! Great to see Karl's perfect arms manipulation... between y'all and Shrek I get better training from RUclips than I got as a Socom soldier in the 90s lol 💯
2 is 1 and 1 is none and train the way you fight may be great mantras, but so is some is better than none. Top performers make the most of what is available right now for training.
great video man, I am new subscriber (10 years force recon in canada) I shoot solo 90% of the time and living in canada im lucky enough to have an outdoor range(which after doing a competency test in front of the owner) he let's me use my holster and I can even do transitions. I find i get bored of the same old drills and its getting a bit stagnant. After watching a few of your videos, it gave me lots to work on now, so thanks again, Pro Patria (for country) our units mantra, cheers
"Anybody worth shooting once, is worth shooting twice!" Kernels of wisdom from Karl, I love it.
The Truth will set you Free. Thanks for watching, TR

Do some ranges in USA ban human shaped targets?
Brilliant! Thanks for sharing. Far too many people want to "run and gun" without having mastered the fundamentals. Lots of wisdom here.
Thanks for watching, TR
What HE said.
Thank you for saying this.
Years of indoor range training mastering the basics got my muscle memory ready to take intermediate/advanced classes.
Great point... "Dangerous shooters at indoor ranges" It's why I only shoot outside. I've seen crazy stuff indoors, especially with full auto rentals.
I used to think those indoor range rule were ridiculous until a member of a birthday party group in the port next me put 2 rounds in my target. Now I’m like damn they need to tighten their s@@@ up around here

I found this to be an excellent lesson, and I will use it today for my first solo day at the local range where I took lessons. Thanks a ton!

Now, I can't wait to get back to the range!
Thanks for watching, TR
Great video!..going to the range today and practice this steps. Thank you Karl...Here from behind enemy lines!
Thanks for watching. Stay safe out there. TR
My new standard, shoot a smiley face at 25 yards
You caught that? My tribute to Lethal Weapon... great movie.
Awesome as always, thanks Karl and Krew!
Great to see Karl's perfect arms manipulation... between y'all and Shrek I get better training from RUclips than I got as a Socom soldier in the 90s lol 💯
Thank you very much! Great for a guy like me who is just learning to walk.
You're very welcome! Thanks for watching, TR
Thanks Karl, one most useful pistol videos I've seen in awhile.

Thanks for watching, TR
Excellent skill builders. Thanks Karl.
Thanks for watching, TR
Good info. So true about indoor target ranges.
2 is 1 and 1 is none and train the way you fight may be great mantras, but so is some is better than none. Top performers make the most of what is available right now for training.
I love how you teach and show how its done
New shooter here, really enjoyed the tips in this video on how to diagnose and correct my shooting. 👏👏👏
Thanks for watching, TR
"Aim small miss small!!!" Priceless advice
Great information Karl. Should do the same with a rifle at an indoor range.
Thank you for taking the time to make this videos. Very good training points 👍🏽
Glad you like them!
Thanks, this was why I don't like indoor ranges. Now I have something to work on.
Have fun!
great video man, I am new subscriber (10 years force recon in canada) I shoot solo 90% of the time and living in canada im lucky enough to have an outdoor range(which after doing a competency test in front of the owner) he let's me use my holster and I can even do transitions. I find i get bored of the same old drills and its getting a bit stagnant. After watching a few of your videos, it gave me lots to work on now, so thanks again, Pro Patria (for country) our units mantra, cheers
Hey thanks for the great video. This is some training that I haven't seen on other videos and it is really helpful. Thanks!!
I set my gun on the table and run my hand by my holster to try and simulate the draw and do my holster draw training dry at home
Great video, very informative on trigger placement tests and precision shoot. Great tips to follow. Thx
Great information. Thank you for your service and for sharing your expertise.
Show off, love it man, please continue entertainment !
Paul... Always a pleasure!!!
