So, I finished an older (1968) book on handgun shooting entitled The Handbook of Handgunning: New Concepts in Pistol and Revolver Shooting, by Paul B. Weston. In said text, on more than one occasion, the author recommends the usage of wax bullets propelled by a primer as a training tool, and states that most sporting good stores carry them. In one section he even recommends practicing in front of a mirror and shooting said object with the aforementioned paraffin projectiles.
Out of curiosity, was this a common training tool back in that era? Anyone so use such methodology? Just wondering; thanks!
