How To Manage .45 Recoil With Only 2 Fingers
.
Sometimes, the firearms training industry gets in a rut…and people get very emotional about techniques that they read about or see on videos without ever testing them.
.
One of the sacred cows of gun training is that you should squeeze the life out of your pistol, get as much meat on metal as possible, and push in from the sides to manage recoil effectively.
.
I heard, believed, and taught that for years.
.
I’ve never been married to a specific technique…only to the most effective and efficient technique, so when Larry Yatch and Beau Doboszenski showed me the “Vice Grip,” I tested and adopted it.
.
The Vice Grip applies force in the same plane as the recoil forces of the gun (forward and backwards) to give you the most mechanical advantage.
.
You get better recoil management with less effort than if you squeeze in from the side.
.
But people dismiss it without actually trying it.
.
So I took things to the extreme…and I’m going to show you how you can effectively manage recoil…even from a .45…with only 2 fingers touching the grip and nothing touching the sides of the gun. Keep in mind, this is NOT a how-to video. It’s a demonstration.
