Modern Technique of the Pistol
The "Modern Technique of the Pistol" is a shooting method developed by Jeff Cooper in the mid-20th century. It emphasizes a systematic approach to pistol shooting, focusing on grip, stance, sight alignment, and trigger control. This technique is designed to improve accuracy and speed, making it popular among law enforcement and competitive shooters.
Central to this technique is the use of the Isosceles stance, where the shooter faces the target with feet shoulder-width apart. This position allows for better balance and control. Additionally, the method advocates for the use of a proper grip to ensure consistent shot placement and effective recoil management.
