I am thinking about filming a tips and techniques video on the basic fundamentals of shooting a pistol. There will be a write-up included and I would make it a sticky here on the forum so its easy to find for any shooter, be it new or any in general whom would be looking for any info of the sort. I would be basing it off of my opinions, using the techniques that I have used and developed over my time as a pistol shooter, that I have used to teach myself and others with. It would be featuring my G22.

Anyways, Im just wondering if anyone would be interested. Please post your thoughts and give me a Yay of Nay.

I would be very interested!

I used several of your tips today at the range... I changed the way I held the pistol to your method of pressing out with my right hand and pulling backwards with my left hand. Before I was trying to hold the pistol steady by just sort of pressing my hands together like a clamp. Your way works better!

I also tried the 45 degree stance you mentioned. I like that because it makes me feel steadier and also seems to help position my hands a little better. It changes the way my hands intersect with the pistol.

Oh yea, my vote would be a YAY!!!

I would definitely be interested in it. It just another way of sharing knowledge. Great idea Boomer.

Well I shot the video earlier tonight, took just over an hour, lots of oopses. I did it inside cause it was too windy to shoot in outside. After I got it all shot it took close to 45 minutes to get it onto my computer, stupid software didnt want to load. Then when I finally got it on my computer and starting reviewing the footage, it was too dark. So, Im gonna mess with the footage in my editing program and see if I can lighten it up, or I will just shoot it again, outside in the bright light.

Wow, that sounds like a lot of work...

I'm sure it will be worthwhile once you have it finished...

Well its not going so good right now. First of all my video cam records videos in a file type that has to be converted. Then those videos have to be converted into a different file type that my editing program can use. But, my video editing program wont import the files. So, so far, its kapoots. But Ill give it a try with my digicam and if that doesnt work, I will just take some story line illustration pictures and include them in the writeup.
