Haha. Did you see the mythbusters episode on grips and stances? Gangsta style did surprisingly well. So did guns akimbo, which I found shocking, too, especially for two fairly untrained guys.
If you follow the link, it's from their first day of firearms training for the new recruits, I'm sure they've gotten him sorted.
I've seen Excise with M&Ps, and our local Sheriff seems to be a mix of Glocks and M&Ps.
When looking beyond Indiana, FL,GA, NY, PA and SC all carry Full size Glocks in .45GAP. OH and MI carry the Sig P226 (Learning the Patrol Shotgun « MSP Recruits)
IL carries the G22 and Last I heard KY was issuing the G35 with a G27 for a backup
I don't know. Maybe it's a birth defect or an old puncture wound from a accident.WTH is up with the hole in his hand??
(
Grip and stance has nothing to do with where the bullets end up, just how you can control the gun afterward (grip) and how you control yourself afterward (stance). )
FBI carries G22 with the Winchester 165 gr JHP
Talked to a guy that is going to be a reserve for Salem. Told me that. 40 was the required cartridge. I got the impression that he could choose his gun but Glock or Sig was reccomended. He choose a Glock 22 and has to supply his own duty ammo.
FAM's used to carry 229's, maybe still do.
I too reserve for Salem.....40 S&W is the caliber, and the dept provided my service and qualification ammo. it's a liability thing. I buy all my practice ammo.
Issue ammunition is Winchester Q4355, using a 180 gr. bonded bullet.
The exact same ammunition, per Paul Nowak of Winchester, is the PDX-1, which is the commercial version of the Q4355--same ammo, coming off the same machines as the Q4355.
Grip and stance has [sic] nothing to do with where the bullets end up?
Are you serious? Can you shoot a handgun just as accurately while standing on your head and holding the gun upside down in your weak hand while pulling the trigger with your pinky finger?
I strongly disagree with your negative flat assertion.
can't say you are wrong Hemingway, but going to be hard to squeeze the trigger correctly with a bad grip. Not to mention recoil and malfunctions. Lets not forget fingers and hands getting bit by the slide. Wouldn't it be easier just to show them a proper grip? I would agree that one grip might not be comfortable for every shooter.
When instructors drill it into students' heads that grip affects accuracy, you have students all day on the range wondering,
"Am I squeezing 65% with my support hand, or only 55%?"
"If I move my support thumb 15 degrees more forward, maybe then my rounds will hit what I'm aiming."
They worry so much about that, I waste a good deal of range time overcoming that misconception.
