My buddy “Ox” is a badass with his Glock 26.
He’s super fast on the draw… and when he shoots an entire mag, it practically sounds like a full-auto machine gun.
99% of people who try this will have their shots all over the place – maybe with a few in the “kill zone” of their target.
But at 15 feet, Ox can react… draw… and empty all rounds right in an 8.5″ x 11″ target in just 2.83 seconds!
Yup… all the way from the draw and every single round is a “stopper”, but the funny thing is, he mastered this skill using a simple gun-training drill you can even do at home!
Here’s a quick demo clip to show you…
How To Use A Simple “Dry-Fire” Training Drill To Master Rapid Fire Accuracy (Like This…)
1. First… Know Your Live-Fire Cadence
You only need to do this once, but you do need to first figure out how quickly you can fire live rounds and get all rounds in your target zone at a specific cadence between shots.
Why is this important?
Because most people start with dry-fire drills first and since they don’t have to deal with recoil, they use a trigger pull cadence that’s unrealistic, causing them big problems when they try to translate their skills back to live fire.
Start with live-fire and find your current speed.
2. Match Your Dry-Fire Cadence To Your Live-Fire Speed
Once you know what your realistic live-fire cadence for a given level of accuracy, you can match your dry-fire practice to it by using a metronome or watch beeper.
When you practice your dry-fire at the same pace that you are doing live-fire, it will help you smooth your technique FASTER than it would if you were doing live-fire (weird, but absolutely true!).
3. Unleash Your Rapid Learning
At some point in your dry-fire cadence training, you’re going to realize that the pace that used to be “pushing it” now seems slow and you’re going to feel like turning things up a notch.
That “pull” you feel to go faster is your mastery of that faster cadence wanting to go – go – go.
Let ‘er go!
Set your cadence slightly faster and keep up with it in your dry-fire, but stay in your rhythm – the cadence you use is important for developing live-fire skills when you get back to the range.
The Results From This Simple Dry-Fire Training Drill Speak For Themselves…
Using just that one technique shown above, Ox was able to win competitions at the live-fire range – and more importantly – feel more confident in defending his family with his handgun.
When he developed this 3-step dry-fire drill, he shot at 15 feet with his Glock 26 and…
… shooting at an 8.5″ x 11″ target, had a cadence of just .17 seconds
… at a 2×3″ target, his cadence is about .3 seconds
… and at a 1″ circle, his cadence is about .6!
Yeah, that’s right… a rapid fire 1″ circle… and you can do it too so give this drill a try!
My recommended “Live Fire Drill” is – Find the nearest IDPA match to you and go watch, then shoot in it. “I” Call it – “Combat Pistol” – since you learn and use Combat TTP’s – Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures shooting IDPA. Look up the IDPA web site and find matches at clubs all over the US and World. IDPA – Intl Defensive Pistol Assoc. Shooting Real Guns on Man Size & Shape – Threat Targets with Non-Threats often in the way. Usually at a Gun Club – But often open to the public for the match. You will learn how fast you can shoot and still be “On Target”. IDPA – Uses Man-Size and Shape Targets. Shoot your way thru various Real Life Type scenarios. Around Corners, etc. Find out what you Can and Cannot DO – Speed Shooting. Leave your Ego at home. Bonus – You will learn Solid Gun Handling Safety at its best. And how to Actually Defend yourself and Home and anywhere you are. And how accurately you can Actually shoot – at Speed & Distance.
This is the best training lesson I have ever read and tried
