Well written article, super enjoyed hearing about the Godfather of 2 hands hand gun shooting, I’ve always used it, I’m 76 years old with E tremors, hand shakes but I still can shot within a 8 1/2 x 11 target at 7 yards, I enjoy the Armory Life so much, I’ve trained all my kids on this, 2 girls and 1 son, thank you guys more than I can say,,,
I'm old enough to remember competing on the Ft. Belvoir pistol team, one-handed with rack-condition 1911s. For me, Gunsite was a revelation. I was first invited to a 3-day Gunsite media event, sort of a synopsis of the basic Pistol 250 course. It was such a rewarding experience that I signed up for the full course the next year. I wish I had the resources to go every year!
