Shooting my Kahr at dusk

[100percent]

I thought I would put out a very short video of shooting my PM40 this evening.

I screen captured one frame and made an avatar from it.

Interesting grip you have. It sure looks like that PM40 is a bit of a beast. I'm not sure my beat up old hands could handle it. Enjoyed the video and the captured frame.

The grip kind of surprised me when I looked at it in the video. It must be instinctual or something. I don't recall doing anything but drawing and shooting. My hands are decidedly average in size and not too strong after a lifetime of pushing papers. The gun feels pretty smooth shooting. These rounds were 155 grain I believe.

Having a bigger pistol grip would surly simplify the ergometrics but then it wouldn't be as compact and I probably wouldn't carry it as much.

That's a cup and saucer grip indicating a shooter with a few years on him. Or a young shooter taught to shoot by by an old shooter. Don't ask me how I know.

Who you calling old....

To me the grip started out well or close to well, of course that's subjective and if it works use it but then the grip changed each shot until it ended up with the classic cup and saucer grip.

I had to watch a couple times to figure out what I was seeing.

But again, I'm a firm believer in if it works for you that's the way to do it.

Yeah Thanks for the advice on grip. My rt hand shifted back with every shot. I'll work in keeping it the same each time. I've learned something by posting a vid of my shooting.

Let's just say that I'm a bit more refined than you, Jocko. In comparison, I'm like fine gun oil and you're more like crude. Just sayin.

That is the first grip I can remember being taught. I'll turn 70 this August if that helps you understand.

When the stars line up I can hit my 6"x12" gong at 50 yards or so about half the time with my Kahr and about 80-90% of the time with my 1911 or Buckmark. I know that is not what these guns were designed for but it is fun.

The grip worked. It used to be taught in Law Enforcement to shoot that way. I shot that way until I started working here and shot FAST simulator quals.
The instructors who became very good friends showed me the newer way and after breaking the old way its stuck with me.

It works and it does make a difference.

My kids hate me at the range because even though I'm not the brightest light in the harbor I like to help people that are doing something wrong and showing it on the target, especially hot chicks.

I was next to a older fella my age, and he was vertical stringing, using the cup and saucer grip. I asked if he was open for suggestion and showed him the new way and it put the cure to the vertical stringing. Made me feel kind of warm inside ya know.

Right behind you Bill. About two years.
