Master Point-Shooting: New Techniques Enhance Optic-Clad Pistol Skills
Gun enthusiasts and trainees are exploring new techniques to enhance their shooting skills, particularly when using optics-clad pistols. A method proposed by Ken Hackathorn involves sealing the optic window to develop point-shooting techniques while maintaining situational awareness.
The process begins with an initial practice of drawing and firing five times with an unloaded gun. This helps trainees get comfortable with the motion of drawing and firing while keeping their eyes on the target. Once comfortable, the trainee repeats the process 20 times with a loaded gun, focusing on bringing the front sight or dot into sharp focus while allowing the target to blur. This technique helps achieve accuracy in shooting.
After mastering this, trainees move on to the second phase. They start with the gun in the holster and their eyes on the target. They draw while keeping their eyes on the target, then fire at one target and immediately shift focus to the next target, firing without correcting the sight picture. This process is repeated 15 times to improve target transitions and maintain situational awareness. It's important to note that accuracy in shooting comes at the cost of speed, and in life-threatening situations, one must balance the two.
Incorporating these techniques into training can help improve point-shooting skills while maintaining situational awareness. By using materials like blue painter's tape or modified optics covers to occlude the sight window of an optic-clad pistol, trainees can effectively practice and enhance their shooting skills.
