I have seen this old video before, and it is interesting to watch. That instructor is a pretty good off hand shooter with a 1911. It looks like he is shooting tracer bullets.

He is shooting tracers. This is the film Paladin Press was selling. The shooting technique is what Fairbairn & Sykes taught, ala "Shooting to Live"; Applegate taught, ala "Kill or Get Killed"; and Cassidy taught, ala "Quick or Dead".
Coincidentally, it is essentially the same method, instinctive point shooting, that was taught and used by the British Army and us, the Australian Army for shooting pistols inside ~15 metres.

Larry Grayson stance. Noticeable here as I observed (not my intention to start WWIII): 1. They used the slide lock to release the slide to chamber a round from open or locked position (and not pulling it back). Same way I do. However modern shooters would prefer racking back the slide to "allegedly" have an "extra" force for the slide to scoop the round from the magazine, and others are saying that the slide lock is not intended to release the slide. 2. "...The barrel should be in direct alignment with the forearm..." "For accurate shooting, the gun must be aligned with the forearm..." (timeframe 4:01~4:30). I remember the youtube video of Todd Jarrett On Pistol Shooting (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ysa50-plo48 in timeframe 0:52~1:03) where he is saying aligning the tip of the barrel straight to the elbow. I find it contradictory since this can't be done when you are in isosceles stance, right?   |
