[QUOTE="gerhard1, post: 3720105, member: 5391"] Okay, good; I think we're pissing in the same latrine now. On to the subject of this thread--how we train. When I'm not function-firing or testing a new (to me) handgun, I try to incorporate movement when I shoot. Starting in various positions relative to the target, that is, facing it, on either side or with the target to my back, I draw, turn around and engage, Sometimes, I move diagonally, other times side-to-side, rarely back. I shoot while I move. Most of the time, I don't use the sights on the gun, usually a revolver, as shooting is at very close range. Since I have serious balance issues, I use a cane when I walk, and I incorporate it into my practice routines. I took Grant Cunningham's Threat Centered Revolver class in November 2019 in Phoenix, and he suggested that I use the cane to perhaps distract the BG by dropping it, etc. On another issue, when I told him about my S&W 10mm wheel gun, he suggested that as a carry gun. Circumstances have not permitted this as my wife has had various health issues and I broke my arm, and these have prevented me from doing much shooting for the past couple of years. That may be changing, though, as she is recovering and I have more free time. [/QUOTE]
