I isn't perfect.
But, there are some shooting habits people I sometimes shoot with have that bug me. I try to politely help them, and they often try, but just cant quit the habit.
1. Riding recoil when firing low-recoil guns. I can't understand this one. They'll shoot say, a 9mm, and rather than control the recoil they just let it ride up. So much so it looks like they are faking recoil. Weird.
2. No follow-through. The instant the shot breaks (just before?) They are already looking over or around the gun to see where the bullet went.
3. Can't square up. (Rifle) They want to blade. Even with a short stock rifle. (11 in LOP) One funny moment occurred when I turned the shooters body by the shoulders. He moved his feet so now he he had the same posture but was now pointing the rifle 30 degrees off target. Then he says, "see, I cant shoot that way."
It was funnier because he wanted to get it, just couldn't.
4. Showing up, THEN start lubricating (IF they lube their handguns) and loading magazines.
5. No speed/assist loaders for mags. (Maglula, etc.) So I'll let kill their thumbs a bit and download mags before I pity them and loan them mine. "Buy shooting accessories and ammo? But I'm saving up for another gun!"
Yours?
