Handgun Stance

[mikedubs]

uh oh...Ridge looks like a very bad boy with his dual USPs...in all seriousness, I find that Weaver is more natural to me after learning the bladed stance for rifles.

Modified Weaver, Too much hand to hand in my youth not to stay in a fighting stance.

I shoot a MI, for plain clothes work. But mostly I shoot back in whatever stance is moving torwards cover.....

[ToliXD]

I just shoot. I think I am MI, but I am so new to shooting I don't think I have any style yet.

I guess Modified Weaver, but it doesn't mean anything as I've had no formal training on any aspect of shooting (stance, grip, etc).

Not sure if I use a Modified Weaver (pics would help), but the rest of that comment I agree with.

the Combat/Modern Isosceles keeps you in a good stance for hand to hand engagement as well.

I have probably ~50 different stances for different situations, different guns etc, but basic stance seems to be closest to modern isosceles.

I chose other because Hannu's post is closest to my explaination. Is the stance stable, easy to get out of and move, and inducive to shooting? Good to go. Who cares what you want to call it. Stance all goes to hell once your feet start moving while you are shooting.

I was doing the "John Wayne" for awhile,,Now I tend towards the "Clint Eastwood" with a bit of the "Ringo kid" thrown in..

I use a form of Weaver even though I didn't know it.
