Genius! I've been doing a similar drill at 7-10 yards with 1" dots on the wall for years but never thought to move right up on one. Definitely some benefits to be had here.
Are you familiar with a study done in 1970 in South Africa about dry firing? For one month one group only dry fired the other group only live fired, when tested the group that only dry fired outperformed the group that only live fired. The takeaway was that trigger "press" was the primary factor in accuracy and dry firing developed it better. Curious about your opinion on this. Thank you in advance.
Kind of a side question. Are you concerned about damaging the firing pin on the revolver, being that it's a 22? Or are you using some kind of snap cap? Thanks
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 do you modify your front sight on the lcr22? hi viz paint/nail polish? also cool to know you can dry fire without breaking it
Hey Rhett, what LCR grips are you using for your snubby? I do not think you kept the stock grip on yours but I can not tell. Thank you for your time and videos!
Thanks, I was completely unaware of this sort of drill. I will definitely be using it starting today. I am also glad that you choose FDR over Lincoln;-)
Okay, dry fire is good,but srsly,you goin' for the eyebox, at 7 yds,, with the risk of overpenetration of the melon? Upper body at least is higher percentage of stopping the slug, IMO. What am I missing?
not hating on you, but instant off switch and also two layers of skull (especially forehead) tend to absorb and disperse a bunch of kinetic energy rather than a longer distance through mostly soft tissue.
If you prefer, you can use these exact targets at nipple height. The only anatomical structures that stop people RIGHT NOW and not ‘soon’ are the central nervous system and, to a MUCH slower degree (sometimes minutes) the heart. Putting them centerline on torso trying for CNS (spine) at heart level is better than heart hunting. Still- all are targets that are about the size of a notecard.
I notice your left thumb is really close to the barrel (could get blasted by discharge gases), maybe change your grip and put the left thumb at bottom of right of your right thumb. th-cam.com/video/gEHNZFTfSD8/w-d-xo.html - How to shoot a Revolver with world record shooter, Jerry Miculek! (handgun grip & stance)
It gets blackened when I shoot. I’m fine with that. It gives me the same grip across all handguns. As long as I’m not shooting magnums, it’ll never cause injury. I verified this with hot 357mag loads out of a Taurus snubby. It stung but didn’t injure.
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 I would recommend a one handed draw and shoot with LCR 22. Your superior hand and arm strength may give you faster draw and shoot times.
Great training
This is refreshing. Found you on P&S Modcast. Sub and the bell. Thank you.
great drill! being good enough to do it eyes closed, is important in my book. practicing with intention like this is huge 👍
Fantastic, I have never seen drills like this. Love the content and looking forward to more. Thanks for the videos

Excellent Tips. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you!
This an interesting idea. I'm going to give it a try.
cool exercise, thanks.
Excellent

Definitely trying this
So.. it’s the way isn’t it. I know I found it to be invaluable.

The LCR22 is built for dryfire.

@@SolutreanSpear testers high viz orange
@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 cool thanks
recommend that you OIL the firing pin assembly after every 1,000 trigger pulls. Easy to do remove the grip and twist pin add a few drop of oil.

Snap caps?
Thanks! Great info!
Just now looking at the Stribog SP9A3G Glock Lower 9mm, roller delayed, you thoughts on this one?
Soft shooter. Seems they are making significant upgrades. FAR better value than anything else PCC

Did you have to get a separate holster to put on the Enigma, or does Philster sell one?
Phlster sells the city special. It’s great

@@demonstratedconceptsllc4918 agreed, on size of acceptable target area. Thank-you, sir!
Awesome, this is so helpful. What holster are you using with the enigma and what kind of pocket holster do you use for it?
I don't like how you touch the wall, but I love how you practice and have a standard regimen for training. Keep up the good work!
Now practice this with live ammo
