Tactical Elites — Short Guide TL;DR: We teach new shooters every week. These five mistakes show up over and over. Fix these and your accuracy, speed, and confidence will jump. Mistake 1 — Support hand too low When your support hand sits low on the grip you lose leverage. The fix: with your firing-hand thumb pointed up, bring the support hand high on the frame so it tucks against the grip. That gives you better control and less muzzle flip. Quick drill: dry-grip the pistol, push the support hand high and squeeze. Repeat until the position feels natural. Mistake 2...

Tactical Elites — Short, Practical Guide Quick TL;DR: Flinching is normal. Train to make the shot a surprise — focus the sights, press the trigger slow, and practice dry fire. Do that and you’ll cut flinch and get tighter groups fast. Why flinch happens Flinching isn’t weakness — it’s a reflex. Your body braces when it expects recoil, like tensing up before lifting something heavy. That same tension ruins accuracy with a pistol: the sights move, the trigger gets mashed, and your shots wander. The simple fix Get the surprise back. Make the gun go off without you anticipating the...

Every shooter eventually hits a wall. Your accuracy is decent, you know the fundamentals, but you’re just not fast. In a competition or a defensive scenario, speed is critical, but it’s often misunderstood. Speed isn’t about frantic, uncontrolled movement. It’s about efficiency. It’s about mastering the core mechanics so thoroughly that you can execute them without wasted time or motion. This guide cuts through the noise. It’s not about gimmicks or gear; it’s about the three non-negotiable fundamentals that are the true foundation of shooting faster while keeping your shots on target. If you’re ready to stop wasting time at...

The trigger is the heart of your firearm’s operating system. It’s the primary interface between you and the gun, but the mechanics behind it are often misunderstood. Terms like Single Action, Double Action, and Striker Fired get thrown around, leaving many shooters confused about what they actually mean and why it matters. Understanding your firearm's action is not just for gunsmiths—it's essential knowledge for any serious owner. It affects your trigger pull, your first-shot accuracy, the weapon's safety features, and its overall feel. This guide will cut through the technical jargon and give you a no-nonsense breakdown of how these...

For centuries, the quest for accuracy has been the driving force behind firearm innovation. From the first smoothbore muskets to today's precision rifles, one of the single most important developments in that quest was the concept of rifling. It’s a simple idea on the surface—cutting spiral grooves inside a barrel—but its impact on ballistics is profound. Those helical grooves are the secret to transforming an unstable projectile into a marvel of aerodynamic stability. Understanding the science and manufacturing behind rifling—from how it's made to why twist rates matter—can give you a deeper appreciation for the engineering in your firearm and...
