I've not as yet taken any formal training with my recently-acquired Remington 870HD, but I've been experimenting with something I was shown at an RWVA Appleseed event a couple of years ago.
In dry-fire practice and now for one range session, I've been using a "hasty-hasty" sling technique to brace the shotgun while firing from the shoulder. With a rifle, this or the "hasty" sling technique provides added stability for the shooter...I was concerned how it might impact the working of the slide-action with the 870, though.
Thus far, no problems, but I'm still *very* new at this and haven't tried this from anywhere other than the relative calm of the range or the basement for dry-firing.
Any input from the gallery on pump-action sling technique? I'm also curious what LE and civilian trainers might have to say on this. Thanks, all...
