Preface
This is not a new thing, this has been going on forever. Remember, many folks only had one long gun in the house, and for many it was a single shot shotgun.
This Single Shot, provided food for the table, as well being used to defend the property, from whatever the property needed defending from.
I am always going on about gun fit and correct basic fundamentals. These encompass a LOT of things.
In shooting, there are quite a number of things one must always do correctly, many at the same time - for sure every single time one shoots.
I/ we have shared numerous times one must "become one with the gun", the gun becomes an "extension of them".
Repetition becomes habit - habit become faith
Get all the physcial stuff down pat and continue to practice these physical things. I mean once the gun fits you, and everything else is figured out for you, don't mess with it, leave it alone - just practice a lot.
Mental part needs to be trained and practiced as well. In shotguns one focuses on the target, this allows them and their and human computer to figure threat, speed, angles, any and everything.
If one is "one with the gun" they never really need to look at the gun to do anything, all the Physical stuff is a natural part of them, a lot of the Mental stuff is done too, just each presentation has to be accessed at that time.
It is like just walking into a room of your house and flipping a light switch on - that room and that switch is an extension of you.
If you visit someone, and that house, its room and its switches are foreign to you - What do you find yourself doing?
1. You have watch where you are going, and you have to look for that switch.
2. You "instinctivley" reach for a switch in a room where it is in your house.
"Shoot one gun and know it" - understand why it is not always best to always change up guns, platforms and such?
Explains why we suggest duplicates of same guns, they feel and operate the same way as each other.
Doubles with Single Shot Shotgun Yes I am going to share this , just I really needed to preface , and the lowly single shot , brings to light how important all these things I/ we harp about so much.
