Handgun shooting. Fast follow up shots.

[vash]

I’m fascinated with how the pro shooters can get multiple shots into the target. It looks effortless. How they recover from the muzzle blast is amazing.


I’ve shot plenty, but it’s always slow and deliberate. I wanna try it. . Pick up the tempo some.

You pretty good at it. Two shots?

I practice on snakes....bip, bip, bip....the first shot is easy though

[flatbutt]

Nope, can't do a double tap at all.

I’ll prob start with my .22. Hehe. Minimize the recoil. For starters.

[KFC911]

Revolver or semi? Both my heavier .45 ACP and baby Ruger 9mm have similar recoil....tame compared to say a heavy .357. I seriously do occasionally shoot snakes with my 9mm around my ponds...bip, bip, bip...I know the first one hits....then they get jumpy and quick as hell so I have no idea about the other two shots .

Semi.

I have a Glock 21SF - .45
Sig 226 - 9mm
Browning Buckmark - .22lr.

I don’t own a revolver yet.

I’d love to go into a backyard and be able to shoot.

There was a LOT of talk when the Glock 9mm first came out by police officers learning to double shot to make up for the reduced caliber.

Knew a guy that built a gun range into the crawl space under his house. You fired from his basement into a hole that opened into the crawl space. There was even a target wire/retrieval system.

Fast multiple shots just take practice.

When in my 20's learned to shoot double clay pigeons with a single shot shotgun. Popped it open, reloaded, snapped it closed, cocked and fired and got the 2nd disc.

124 or 147gr 9mm in a metal framed gun helps a lot. Grip the front and back straps more and not the side panels as much.

Also lighter trigger makes a big difference.

Lastly the good shooters aren’t always getting two complete sight pictures. They get one and trust the gun for the second.

Vash go shoot some idpa or uspsa It is to range shooting as scca is to a grocery run.

My friends are coming up with a 2-gun challenge. .22 10/22 and any .22 handgun. For economics sake.

Should be fun. I’ll be more like Keanu in Bill and Ted... less like Keanu in John Wick

Practice...standing almost on top of the silhouette when starting. Our first week at SOT we fired about 10k rounds of .45 each.
If you want to maintain the skill you have to shoot almost daily...simple muscle memory after a time.

Thanks. I can get on target pretty quick. my thumbs help. I do a similar thing with my index finger shooting at birds with a shotgun.

[berettafan]

Check out Keanu at Taran tactical. They trained him for wick. The dude is a legit good shooter.

[vash]

Seen it. All of them. The guy is legit.

Double action revolvers are the fastest. There is a technique to bringing them down out of recoil with thew trigger. Once you get good at it, and try to shoot as quickly with any semi auto, you will get frustrated when you have to wait for the slide to cycle.

I have 1911's a Glock 19, and s CZ75

I can't double tap the G19 yet

1911 I can double and stay in 18"x 24" chest targets well

The CZ 75 has a wonderful 2# trigger with a short reset. By the time I run 8 rounds out of a 1911 I can probably get all 20 rounds out of the CZ Tac Sport mVash, where do you live?
