Two shots were fired.
There are also arm exercises, which can be seen in the fitness program. Every arm exercise is similar, but the intensity and personal pertinence are different.
Now put up the main points of military pistol shooting
First, the basic requirements of pistol shooting on the body
Anyone can open a pistol, but not everyone can play well. Pistol shooting training has minimum requirements for a person's basic physical quality. Needless to say, the better physical fitness, the easier pistol training will be. When you stretch your hands horizontally, you will see that your hands are shaking slightly. People's physical qualities are different, and the stability of their hands is also different. Because of years of training, professional photographers can take clear photos with their cameras when the shutter speed is slow.
Pistol shooting doesn't have to be like a tiger. Arm strength is very important. Strong strength can provide yourself with a longer stability period to facilitate the operation of the trigger, which will be discussed in detail when we talk about aiming skills later. Push-ups are the most effective training for arm strength and chest muscles. I think it should be the minimum requirement to complete 30 push-ups in a row. At the same time, grip strength practice is also essential. The grip is simple and light, and you can practice it almost anytime and anywhere. If you plan to take part in the shooting competition, continuous endurance will be very important. Especially in the so-called "actual combat" competition, you have to run very fast all the time. At the end of a game, you have to play more than a dozen stages, and you need to get familiar with each venue through several "walking rehearsals". Without good physical strength, let alone shooting, I'm afraid you can't run down. In this way, you should also train for the 5000-meter long-distance running.
If you can easily do 30 push-ups and run 5000 meters, your physical fitness should basically meet the requirements.
Second, the posture of holding the gun
Holding a gun posture is a problem that many beginners often ignore. For a novice, everyone knows that shooting is "three points and one line". If anyone knows more, he will also mention trigger control. If a person can understand the importance of holding a gun, he may not be a novice. It is very important to hold the gun correctly;
First, establish the stability of the line of sight. Aiming is probably to adjust the direction of the arm under the command of the eyes. This view regards people as machines. In fact, aiming only provides a reference for the arm, because human muscles are very inert. If you hold the gun incorrectly, even if you constantly adjust your posture through your brain, the gun may still deviate from the line of sight. What's more, when aiming, you can't take care of the scope, the door and the target at the same time (this will be discussed later). If you hold the gun correctly and aim at the target, it is easy to establish a correct line of sight.
Second, aim quickly or roughly in an emergency. Whether in actual combat or in competition (except slow shooting), time is of the essence. If you hold the gun correctly, you can aim at the target when you raise it. On the contrary, you must adjust through your eyes, and wasted time may cost you your life.
When Americans evaluate guns, they coined an English word: Pointability, which means that when you pick up a gun and aim at the target casually, the sight will naturally aim. In fact, this means whether the design of the gun is more in line with the physiological structure of the human hand. Generally speaking, the series of Sig P2 10, Browning Hi-Power, 19 1 1 are very pointedness. In fact, almost any high-quality pistol can have good pointing ability after training. The key is to hold the gun correctly.
You hold the barrel with a non-gunman, push the handle to the center of the gunman's jaw, find a comfortable position with your palm, and then hold it tightly. The way I establish a correct gun posture is this: hold the gun, hang my hands, be in a ready posture (the muzzle drops 40 degrees), and then quickly aim the gun at the target. If you basically don't aim at the target, it means that the posture and wrist angle of holding the gun are not ideal. Repeat this exercise until you can raise your gun and aim at the target without adjusting your position. In order to strengthen actual combat practice, you can also start from the holster position, shoot with one hand, and then point your hands at the target together. After thousands of exercises, we can establish a correct gun posture and lay a good foundation for aiming.
There is another place that is extremely easy to ignore about holding a gun. Please remember this: always hold the gun handle tightly. The specific method is to put the gun in your hand, hold it tightly until the hand holding the gun shakes, then relax a little, and the wrist must be tightened. There are three reasons:
First of all, when holding the gun, it can maintain the stability when shooting, that is, keep the aiming line fixed.
Second, most people's hand nerves have an exercise habit, that is, the five fingers relax at the same time and grasp at the same time. In this way, when shooting, if you don't hold the gun tightly at first, at the moment when the index finger pulls the trigger, you will subconsciously hold the gun handle with the other four fingers, and the process of loosening and tightening will virtually destroy your vision. If you hold it tightly, there is no room for movement when you pull the trigger. Trigger control will be discussed in detail later.
Third, if the gun is not grasped tightly, it will hit the finger joints when the gun jumps violently, and it is easy to cause injuries if it is too many times. It seems to be a simple and reasonable requirement to hold the gun handle tightly, but it is often forgotten in actual shooting and often remembered when the impact point is scattered.
Third, aim with two eyes.
People have two eyes, but one is the main eye and the other is the auxiliary eye, believe it or not. It doesn't matter which eye is dominant in normal life, but it matters a lot when it comes to shooting. When you aim your gun, do you habitually close one eye? The action of closing your eyes is actually the action of forcing yourself to lift the gunner's eyes and become the main eye. Before shooting training, you need to find and train your main eye.
Because my suggestion is that you aim with two eyes open when training, and don't close the other eye. The first advantage of binocular aiming is to increase the field of vision. If you encounter a gun battle, it is important to broaden your horizons. Second, if you aim with two eyes, your attention will not be too focused on the bull's-eye, but on the relationship between the scope and the whole target. This point will be discussed in detail in the part about aiming later. Third, when your eyes are open, the muscles on your face will relax and your body will feel natural. This is especially important for you to have a long game.
The way to determine the main eye is that you face up to a goal, then extend a pencil vertically in front of yourself, and the nib forms a three-point connection with the eye and the goal. At this time, you close one eye. If the pencil tip is still on that line, it means that your open eyes are the main eyes. If the pencil tip runs to one side, it means that your closed eyes are the main eyes. If your main eye happens to be different from your hand holding a gun (for example, your main eye is left eye, but you hold a gun with your right hand), you'd better adapt your eyes to your marksmanship, or marksmanship to your eyes.
Fourth, the sight! Line of sight! ! Line of sight! ! !
When it comes to aiming, everyone knows three points and one line. However, when you raise your gun, you will find that the three points you want to connect in a line have different distances, far exceeding the depth of field of your eyes. So what's your point? There is no doubt that the door (gap) is more eye-catching, and it is easy for you to focus on it. Of course, you care more about the target and the center of the circle in the middle, so you are more likely to pay attention to the bull's eye and want to pierce it. There are more considerate people. After the gun is raised, the focus of the eyes will change from time to time between the aiming point and the target center, trying to cover everything. What kind of person do you belong to? No matter which one you belong to, you are wrong anyway. Raise your pistol, and your focus is on the sight.
"Oh, can you see ... your forward look?" The first lyric of "home of the brave" was tampered with by shooting commentator Dave Anderson. Chuck Taylor, another man known as the world's four largest pistol coaches, simply called the school he founded the Zhun Xing Gun Training Academy. The Los Angeles County Police Department specifically listed one in the "Police Survival Training": "When your life depends on shooting, don't forget to keep an eye on the sight!" Note that the principle of sight is based on the principle that the relationship between sights (the position of sight and door) is far more important than the relationship between any single sight and target. In other words, if your line of sight is not in the center of the door, but just aim your line of sight or the door at the bull's eye, your bullet will fly. If your sight and gate are in the correct position, the bullet will hit the target even if your aiming point deviates from the bull's-eye. Grasp the relationship between the sights, even if you can't hit ten ring, you can hit the sixth ring or the seventh ring, otherwise the bullets you hit don't know where they will fly.
Back to the problem of sight, if your focus is on sight, you can naturally establish the correct relationship between the two, although the door is virtual. If you can train your hands and eyes to automatically form the habit of aiming at the sight, that is, once you raise the pistol, the position of the sight and the door is correct, then after you aim the sight at the target, you have completed the aiming procedure of hitting the target. This is also the importance of the correct gun posture emphasized earlier.
The concept of regional aiming is introduced here to emphasize the importance of aiming. Shooters should cultivate the habit of aiming at an area, that is, you aim at the area around the bull's eye, not the bull's eye. The reason is that no matter how carefully you aim, it is almost impossible to fix the aiming point on the bull's-eye, because your hands are shaking more or less. The farther you shoot, the greater the vibration you will feel. If you insist on aiming at the bull's-eye, you will naturally shift your focus to the bull's-eye, and it will take too long to aim. The end result is that the aiming time is long, the arm is tired, but the shaking is worse. Using area aiming is just suitable for the focusing method of sight.
Five, shoot! Have some fun with gunpowder!
If you can hold the gun correctly and aim it correctly, now you can go to the shooting range to fight! Experienced readers will wonder: trigger control, one of the three basic shooting techniques, has not yet involved the shooting range? Isn't this a great task? Indeed, I am a little strange in the angle of practicing shooting. I put the trigger control behind the live-fire shooting. My reason is this: trigger control is the most difficult technique to master in shooting, and its difficulty is different from aiming. Aiming technology is difficult for some people to understand (for example, what is regional aiming, why should we focus on aiming), and the trigger technology is easy to say, but it will take a lifetime (yes, a lifetime! If someone claims that he has completely mastered the trigger control, he is either bragging or has no idea what trigger control is. Trigger control, like basketball player's shooting, should be practiced frequently. Therefore, I don't think people need to wait until they have basically mastered the trigger control before going to the shooting range. And I'm afraid it's impossible to basically master the trigger control without live ammunition.
The main purpose of shooting training now is to practice holding a gun and aiming. At the American shooting forum, someone once asked how to improve the accuracy of their shooting. Most people's answers include this one: practice with 22LR caliber. This is exactly what the author suggested. The outstanding advantage of .22 small caliber bullet is that the recoil is very light, which can basically eliminate the influence of recoil and trigger on the line of sight, so that you can concentrate on solving the problem of aiming with your gun. And shooting with .22 is also a training process for the trigger, which makes you feel good about shooting. Another advantage of .22 bullet practice is that it is cheap. The cost of shooting with a 9mm bullet is $ 0. 15, and the cost of a 0.45-inch bullet is $0.02 (purchased in thousands, otherwise the price will be higher), while the cost of a 0.22-inch bullet is only $0.025.
Shooting with a.22 bullet can be slower at first, but if the performance is improved, the shooting speed can be gradually accelerated. Raise your gun, and you will find it impossible to stay still. If you shoot at a distance of 2 1 foot (this distance is the closest point of the actual distance of the pistol), you will find the sight of the gun shaking in the bull's eye. If you shoot at 50 feet (this distance is considered as the far point of actual combat, so it is not recommended that you shoot so far from the beginning), you will find that the bull's-eye is about the same size as the scope, and even a little jitter of the scope will make the scope jump out of the bull's-eye.
Now your main purpose is to do a good job of grouping, that is, to narrow the bullet dispersion surface without deliberately adjusting the aiming deviation. Don't be afraid to hit the stars. You can start with 15 feet and then increase to 2 1 foot. If you have the ability to do 30 push-ups, you can quickly shrink the impact points together at a distance of 2 1 foot.
Breathing is a link when shooting. Take a long breath before you raise your gun, and then hold your breath. Some coaches say that the most stable period of a gun is when it is slowly vented. I don't understand this. I'm always at a loss when I shoot. I always aim half-accurately and half-inaccurately, and I don't know why the gun rang. So when I shoot, I must aim at five points, and of course I will be more "blind". My experience is that I don't want to aim perfectly. Some people always want to fix the muzzle on the center of the circle. As a result, they can never fix it. They aimed again and again and refused to shoot for a long time. Finally, their arms unconsciously become more and more tired. Hold your breath for a long time, lack of oxygen in your brain, and double images will appear in your eyes. As a result, the more you refuse to play, the worse you play. This is the advantage of regional aiming. Although the sight can't be fixed on the bull's-eye, I try to shake around it. My gun often goes off when the shaking amplitude is the smallest and the shaking speed is the lowest.
Believe it or not, it is aimed not only at the eyes, but also at the hands. People's hands are also aiming. Of course, this "aiming" is not to look at your target, but to "remember" the position of the last shot. This "memory" requires you to move quickly. There are many shooting enthusiasts who are very patient with shooting. They shot once or twice, took a rest and regained their strength. I call it golf shooting. I am impatient. As soon as the gun comes up, I have to finish it at one go, no matter how many rounds, five rounds, eight rounds, ten rounds and fifteen rounds are loaded in it. The more bullets you shoot, the faster you shoot, and the less accurate you aim. This kind of casual aiming shooting has actually trained the habit of shooting quickly, especially with small caliber. I think this kind of quick shooting actually improved my grades. Because every time the hand absorbs the recoil, it naturally puts the gun back to the principle position. You can fire again as long as you adjust your aim slightly. The target in the attached figure is that the author used SIGP210.2 caliber system to shoot continuously at a distance of 50 feet. The farthest bullet hole spacing is only 1.5 inch. I think if I stop shooting and fire again, the impact point will be more dispersed.
As for the gun that you practice shooting with .222, although you can buy a .222 caliber pistol very cheaply and its performance is good, it is better to use the pistol that you will officially use in the future plus the 22lr modified kit. This is a special .22 caliber barrel, sleeve and magazine. Some pistol manufacturers (such as Beretta, CZ, Sig) produce modified kits specially for practicing this kind of gun, and some guns are produced by aftermarket manufacturers, and the price ranges from 200 to 700 yuan. Although there may be some loss in price, you can get familiar with the performance of this gun with Convesion Kit. Otherwise, although you are very skilled at playing .22, you changed your gun when playing practical bullets, which somewhat lost the purpose of practice. Intransitive verbs increase stress.
Now we can finally discuss the most important part of this article: trigger controls. Trigger control, I think, is the most important part in shooting training. It is true that good aiming is the basis of shooting, but for most people, the biggest obstacle to improving shooting performance lies in trigger control. It is no exaggeration to say that learning trigger control is a milestone in shooting practice, and learning trigger control can be said to be a real introduction.
Before entering the discussion, let's analyze a goal. Please look at Figure 3. This is a.45 caliber bullet. At a distance of 50 feet, five shots missed the target. There are four bullet holes closely clustered together, forming a dispersion area of more than one inch, while the other bullet hole is nearly five inches away. The first four shots and the last shot show the disparity in shooting level. Why? Please don't guess that the trigger is heavy, but you should know that a small shooter will not confuse pulling the trigger with picking a coke can. )
Now suppose we do an experiment. I put my hand on your shoulder and suddenly gave it a hard push. You were almost caught off guard. The second time, I will count to one, two, three, and then push. Your shoulder resisted my thrust this time. The third time, I counted one, two and three, but my hand still didn't move. At this time, your shoulders rush forward: you foresee the thrust of my hand, so you push in the opposite direction. This is the reason for the previous question.
When we finish the first shot and our hands are hit by recoil, your nerves will naturally have a subconscious reaction. When you pull the trigger again, you can't help but give your wrist an opposite thrust to restrain the recoil of the gun. The greater the recoil of the gun, the stronger this subconscious behavior. Do you understand why this paper puts forward the principle of .22 caliber shooting practice before discussing trigger control? You can do an experiment by yourself, mix live ammunition and practice ammunition at the shooting range, put them in a magazine or magazine (it is better for others to help you install them), and then you shoot. At the moment of human error, you can see your wrist press down more or less hard. Can you restrain yourself from doing so? It is almost impossible to control your subconscious with reason, just as you command yourself not to blink when something flies by. Maybe you can stop blinking once or twice, but after a long time, relax a little and you will fail.
The shooting instructor of the LAPD told the trainees: Let every bullet of yours suddenly shoot.
Suddenly? You won't let every shot go off, will you?
Now your contradiction is: you must control the shooting and make a sudden shot. This seems to be an irreconcilable contradiction. I think the only correct way is to completely deny it in your mind from now on, and finally forget the following concept: "pull the trigger". In your shooting behavior, there should be no concept of "pulling" or "pulling the trigger". The correct trigger control is that when your line of sight is determined, you give the trigger one: continue to increase the pressure until it fires. Specifically, when you are satisfied with the aiming, press the trigger with your index finger and steadily increase the pressure. Don't think about when the gun went off, try to keep your original sight still. In this way, because you don't know when the gun is thinking, there will be no sudden downward reaction. At the beginning, you should have a sense in your heart, that is, continue to exert yourself and strive to cultivate this habit with your hands in the future. At first, you may feel that the shooting speed is slow, but it will gradually accelerate. This is a project that needs to be practiced repeatedly and often. The author firmly believes that through this kind of shooting practice, your shooting level can make a great leap in a very short time.
I repeat: increase the pressure!
Seven, pierce this enough paper.
It is not difficult to shoot at first, but it is not easy to hit the target beautifully. For many people, there are too many uncertainties in pistol shooting. From holding a gun to aiming and then controlling the trigger, it is not a day or two to make great strides. However, the more you hold this idea, the more difficult it is to improve your shooting level. Many people have been playing with guns for many years, and almost all of them know the performance of various bullets like the back of their hands. However, when they arrived at the shooting range, they showed complete mediocrity (I seem to be talking about the guy who wrote "Three Guns on Guns"). You can't say that he doesn't play well. He can hit the target with a full posture when he raises his gun, but he just lacks a little look and makes people excited. Many people have played with guns all their lives and fired tens of thousands of bullets, but his shooting level has remained at the same level for many years. It is often in the second year after they learn to shoot that they maintain their level. When you talk to them, you will find that many people are very sensitive to guns. In their view, only some guns can be played well, while others can't be played well at all.
In fact, the improvement of shooting level is like a piece of paper thick enough-it seems to isolate you from the world, but it will break when you poke it.
People often ask, are shooting scores piled up with bullets? Answer: yes, but no. Because it is impossible to get enough shooting experience without enough shooting quantity and times, and without live ammunition, the performance will never be automatically improved; However, to improve the shooting level, it is not enough to rely solely on bullets. You also need a very important exercise: shooting into the air. My personal experience is that air-to-air shooting and live ammunition are carried out at intervals, and air-to-air shooting is the basis of training. The specific way is to set aside a certain time every day to practice aerial shooting, mainly training aiming and trigger control, including practicing double-action shooting and single-action shooting. According to the situation, we will shoot live ammunition in a week or two. On the one hand, I will analyze and study my own aiming practice, on the other hand, I will feel the trigger control under recoil. Every time I do enough aerial shooting exercises before going to the shooting range, my shooting results will be obviously good and stable. If I don't practice empty guns enough, when I go to the shooting range, my gun will feel strange and my performance will be unstable, especially before 100 rounds. The author once spent three months shooting about 2000 rounds of live ammunition, which made his live ammunition shooting achievements advance by leaps and bounds. When shooting at a long distance, the diameter of the bullet is reduced by 60%. During this period, I practiced shooting in the air at least ten times more than shooting with live ammunition. A 9 mm practice bullet I broke filled a jewelry box. Others say that it is not unusual for people to buy bullets in a whole box, but few people buy coach bullets in a whole box. However, shooting into the air is my unique skill.
That's right: you give too little reward.
