Hey what's up I heard about that guy that was sponsored by uscca that needed your help and got his coverage dropped just wanted to let you know that you're a joke.... just like 9 mm and any Bozo that carries it for self-defense.....45 ,10mm or bigger.... and since you can't comment on commercials I just come here directly.
His understanding of the hand mechanics of the grip are good, but you can see the way his arms were positioned that he's flaring out his elbows. Doing so directs recoil into the shoulders which will throw you off and cause a delay in target reacquisition as opposed to a more straight-armed approach that will direct the recoil down your arms and into your spine and out of the body toward the ground.
Thanks for explaining the grip.
Basic yet very helpful information!
For small guns like Micro 9s, can also move forward a bit and use your left pointer finger (for rightys) to overlap the front trigger guard. It can help hold that muzzle steady when working with auch smaller gun footprint.
Yep. That's what I do with my shield.
@@christophergardiner5351 I do it with my 43x and hellcat but still go with the regular wrap around grip with my duty size guns. I think the idea is that there is no "best" way. Happy shooting..
@@christophergardiner5351 oh and something else that works great - get some skateboard tape for the front of the guard. Totally helps th grip for that front finger...
@jimpalmer4061 yeah, you are right. Wasn't saying there was a "best way." Just mentioning that I put my non shooting index finger on the guard.
To each their own but I dont recommend teaching that to others. Novice shooters tend to anticipate recoil and flinch. If they have their finger pressed on the guard and flinch, its gonna throw the shots off. Couple that with other common errors like slapping the trigger, etc...the groups aren't gonna be consistent. I place my support finger under the trigger guard. I dont wrap around or press against it. That hold works well, even on subcompacts like my Gen 4 Glock 30 .45 auto
Wish I’d known this 60 years ago. Could have saved me a LOT of misspent ammo. Thanks
Excellent video, at 3:24 perfect symmetry between left thumb and right index.
Thank you
Nice video
This is an awesome video, thank you.
Happy to help! Thanks for watching!
TY USCCA
Thank YOU for. the support! Stay safe!
I was following along with you on this with my Glock 19 (unloaded of course) I've always had a good grip on the gun I can feel a slight difference I think my shots will be in a tighter group on the target. I'm looking forward on trying this at my next visit to the range.
That's awesome to hear (and happy to hear it was unloaded). Let us know how your groups change after you get the chance to try this at the range!
@@USCCAOfficial yes I wii
@@HowtowithPaulHendersonhow did it go?
@@AaronChristian951 makes a huge difference.
Just shot my new Springfield elite xdm 10mm and I suck! Keep shooting low. Guess I’m anticipating the recoil too much. Any suggestions?
Unfortunately I am right eye dominant but left handed
i dont know why but when i do the support hand and get it nice into the other part of the handle my thumb does not come close to reaching forward as far as everyone else. i can move it forward some but then i have to take it off the grip so much it does not feel worth it. i have big hands so im not sure what im doing wrong
I am in a minority with modern semi auto shooters, but I think I have short thumbs or something, because the thumbs forward grip is beyond uncomfortable and is much less effective for me. It also feels completely unnatural to me. I don’t put my thumbs forward when I use a hammer, an axe, broom, baseball bat, knife, or anything else that I grip. It also may have to do with first learning to shoot a revolver and staying away from muzzle blast shooting out the front of the cylinder. Then again, I think I’d rather lose a little accuracy and not have to readjust my grip if a revolver is the only gun available to me.
Watch out for "slide bite" with that thumb...
This has never happened to me but I always fear it
First thing I thought. "The mistake shooters only make once."
For beginners
👍

I just wish I could join the USCCA - the joys of living in a state that has a twit of an AG. One of what - 3? Sigh.
Yup, three. And CA is not one of them lol
I sure would like to see some videos like this using a revolver. No beaver tail. Cylinder side flash. Different grip profile. Not everyone uses a semi-auto, or shoots 1911 or a Glock. Grip too high gets hammer pinch. Control hand index finger too far forward, you might lose it. Snubbies are common.

How do you hold a micro compact gun where you don't have place to your Pinky
First
Welcome!
Thumbs forward grip is disgusting
Which grip would you recommend?
Totally wrong..thumbs forward is a horrible grip.
...and what would be the correct way?
And you’re either missing a chromosome or a troll. Either way you’re statement is useless
@@mikew1080 thumbs backward 😀
Really…
