I'm new to the gun community, and after looking at a lot of videos on RUclips, your videos are some of the best. Thank you

[@scaleworksRC]

When I had issues with grip after not shooting for a while, my buddy said "yeah, you gotta get a little mad" 😄 Good tips here too!

[@Quality_Guru]

Once again, another great instructional video.

[@MrEd-dc6mh]

Great dry fire training! You're an awesome instructor Myles, thank you Sir!

[@chltmdwp]

Second! If your firing finger is very stiff, then you are gripping too hard. You want your firing finger to be relaxed.

[@imranianchua9919]

Again, another excellent instructional video clip. Love this channel!

[@fanman8102]

Excellent; thanks!

[@RK57AZ]

Another great fundamental pistol training clip! I have missed a few clips in this series so, if I mention something that’s already been covered, please disregard.
I’m coming from the start at the beginning of pistol fundamentals like starting with what firearm works the best for hand size, grip strength and intended use. Because if a pistol doesn’t fit the hand correctly it’s of little use as an effective tool!
As always stay safe and healthy!

[@Iseevideo101]

I think this is very valuable information.

[@markannadale7533]

This channel is awesome. Always great content.

[@onpsxmember]

Can you do a comparison between the angled support hand vs straight wrist hook using the back ala Grauffel? (Maybe later on in the series.)

[@somedayzo6]

Excellent!!! Thank you!

[@chinothedreamgiver1629]

Great videos . Thanks

[@Pak_Flesot]

I've been binge watching this channel, and it's honestly been super helpful. One thing that I've been struggling with is how to take an accurate followup shot. My grip is good, and taking a followup shot in 1 second is easy. Even without any adjustments at all. But I do want to improve to be able to take a second or third shot in tight groups in less time. Something like being able to shoot 5 round groups at a single mid sized target in less than 3 seconds. I'm not sure where I'm going wrong?

[@roobscoob47]

Thanks, for the Myles of information~

[@danjewell2612]

Problem with after the first shot resetting the trigger I seem to automatically get a second shot without trying. How do I control my trigger finger
And I really appreciate all these training videos. Thank you so much.

[@seltiks911]

One confusing thing is in what direction is the pressure of the support hand going?
More up and in? Or more nutcracker like?

[@ericbergfield6451]

I tend to only get "so accurate" during any pistol training session. I can stand there & try to adjust a lot of aspects of my shooting, but ultimately, I have some natural CoD idle sway in my aim (I need to get better attachments that reduce it). ...I'm starting to pick up on my idle sway, & now I'm beginning to test a method where I shoot as soon as my sway wanders dead center of target. It's totally dependent on the weight of my pistol, coffee consumption, time of day, how tight my shoelaces are, what color shirt the RO is wearing; ya know how it goes.

[@jessesoto8887]

Sleep more and lose the coffee. And no nicotine or alcohol,drugs etc.

[@melooperadventures7710]

What Glock model is that Brother Hyve?

[@warrenrosen132]

Thumbs forward=weak grip. Thumbs down=strong grip.

[@shawnperry4661]

I haft to modify this because I use my middle finger because my index finger is fused and my grip is why I miss so much because it’s not the same all the time more practice to get there

[@ikemouser2580]

First

[@pyeitme508]

Welp oof!
