Analyzing Film: Pistol “Porpoises” During Recoil (2 of 3)

Analyzing Film (2 of 3): Porpoising Gun

Your body repositioning rearward is more of a stance issue then a grip issue, but nonetheless, getting rocked back is not good. This video goes into how to recognize this issue and provides some tips on how to remedy this problem.

[op_liveeditor_element data-style=””][text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left”]Another common deficiency is where the gun lifts up and gets in-between your eyes and the target where you have to bring your hands down and reacquire the sites and your site picture. This movement of the pistol looks a lot like a porpoise swimming through the ocean.  This deficiency is fairly common and very easy to recognize in slow motion film but very difficult to identify watching anyone shoot in real time.[/text_block][/op_liveeditor_element]

Rolling the elbows can tighten your squeeze and raise your arms to reduce the entire gun from lifting.  Raising your elbows also raises your platform to be closer to the line of thrust of the pistol which is directly behind barrel.

[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left” font_size=”24″ width=”940″]Keep watching and you will earn a grip SIRTificate.[/text_block]
[text_block style=”style_1.png” align=”left”]

  • All guns are always loaded.  Treat the SIRT like a live fire gun.
  • Never let the muzzle cover anything you are not willing to destroy.
  • Keep your finger off the trigger until your sights are on the target.
  • Be sure of your target and what is beyond it.  Have a good ballistic backstop when training.  So just in case some how a live fire gun got in your training space, a bullet will be caught where you are training.
