Re: Left handed shooter problems

Thank you, everyone, for these very thoughtful and interesting comments and helpful suggestions.

Re: Left handed shooter problems

This is all really helpful. I'll definitely spend some time practicing the dry fire. On the trigger "slap"... the guys at 360 Tactical/Memorial Shooting Center taught me about the trigger reset click. I've been practicing that way since, to avoid fully releasing the trigger on my XDM 9mm. ...
