Hey guys I'm Chris Sajnog best-selling author of Navy SEAL shooting and if you
don't have a copy of it why not it's the best-selling book on Amazon
right now so go ahead and check it out so today what I want to talk to you
about is speed and how to get your handgun from your holster up on target
up on your sights and ready to shoot as fast as possible so let's go ahead and
get started
all right so let's talk about speed and getting your handgun from your holster
up on-site up on your sights as fast as possible so one thing I want to tell you
right off the bat is you cannot force speed you know a lot of times I'll see
people out on the range telling students say you know just push your speed push
your speed if you push your speed you will fail there's no question and when
you fail what you're doing is you're teaching your body to do it a wrong way
so I don't want you guys to do that okay so I'm going to teach you the right way
to shoot faster the right way if you want to get your your handgun out of
your holster and up on your sides ready to take a shot you know sites lined up
ready as fast as possible this is what you need to do all right so what you
need to do is you need to eliminate time where you can and you need to slow down
where you need to and I'll tell you most people when they are training with
firearms do this backwards and you know I talked about it in my book Navy SEAL
shooting but a lot of times people when I teach them to draw we're on the range
and I and I say okay I want you guys to do you know work on a you know speed and
what they'll do is they will work their draw will be very slow
so they'll okay I want to work on my speed of shooting so my draw is going to
be like this and then then you start slapping the trigger okay so you need to
reverse those two things okay if I'm going to draw my weapon I need to cut
out points where I can so what I mean by that is if when my weapon comes out if I
come up and I'll see some people come up way up here and then out well that's
wasted movement there's no reason for my weapon to come from here up to here and
then out it needs to as soon as it breaks out of the holster it needs to
come forward and now I'm ready to shoot and now it needs to move straight up
onto into my line of sight so I can get my sights lined up and I need to marry
my hands so one thing I teach a Navy Navy SEAL
shooting is the rubberband draw okay so if you have the book you know what it is
but basically the rubberband draw is imagine that there's rubber bands
attached to you know every place on your gun so there's a rubber band on my
target out there pulling the tip of the gun there there's a rubber band up here
so it's going to move slightly towards that so as it comes out of the holster
it rotates up because it's being pulled that way
well now it's being pulled towards the target but a little bit up here and then
there's a rubber band that's being attached to my chest in the back of the
gun so as I'm quickly pushing out it's slowing down slowing down until I'm up
on target my sights are lined up and I'm ready to shoot
okay so that's what I mean by finding that perfect path okay so I know my
perfect path and I can eliminate unneeded movement you know unwanted
movement where that's just wasting time that way when my weapon is up on target
I can spend my time aligning my sights focusing on the front sight and you know
delivering excellent customer service to whoever's asking for it at that time
okay so again once you know the perfect thing I know I can get to my gun very
quickly because that's a movement that I don't it does me no good to move slow
here okay but but say I'm up on target and I'm ready to press back on the
trigger if I did everything else you know that that I can do quickly I can
get it out of my holster quickly without making any mistakes I can drive the gun
from my holster up unto my my sights into my sight line very quickly that way
as it's coming up I can put on the brakes slow down line up my sights as I
slowly press back on the trigger so that's what you need to do to be able to
shoot shoot quickly so I called the rubber band draw go ahead and try that
out find out where you're making mistakes in your movement
and you know eliminate those little errors that's what cost you time drive
your gun out bond in the target and then slow down and take your time to make the
perfect shot so that's how you get the gun out of the holster up onto target
