She could use a couple improvements in form, but it looks like she likes it!
feel free to point it out. I wouldn't know what to tell her to do differently
She's only shot a gun a couple times but she seems to be pretty good so far
Well in the 2nd video she looks down the barrel of a loaded gun with her finger on the trigger twice. That's the first glaring thing.. The LCPs can be kind of a PIA to get a good grip on but she seems to be doing ok in that respect. Try getting her to lean into the target not back as if she is afraid of the recoil, I think she will find it is mor emanageable when the body mechanics are more sound.
she found out the hard about where not to put her thumb, i imagine she wont make that mistake againwith a small pistol like that,big targets up close are the way to get hits andgain confidence. I"ve been shooting for years and small guns are for big targets,especailly for beginners.
remind her that if one of her thumbs goes up behind the slide area,it's gonna HURT.
Yea we both had hearing protection. The self defense course is a good idea, i'll look into thatDifficult to tell with long hair, was she wearing hearing protection? I love to see smiles on the faces of new shooters.
How about doing her a favor and enroll her in a professional self defense class? Plinking is fun, but if you care about her safety, a professional class is an excellent idea. That way she won't develop bad habits that may be passed on by others. Such as her grip on the pistol. Sign up for a class for both of you and make it a date.
Suggestion/point being... go out and go often. Practice, practice, practice. Suggestions of basic stance, grip, etc and let her figure out what is most comfortable for her. And then she'll get good and accurate.
She needs to stand up straight and not lean back. That's a very bad habit and one I see at the range all the time, particularly among the women.
