-Have a firm grip on the Glock.

Just kidding!
Happy shooting. :tiphat:
Once you have that 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul), here's your manual of arms:

-Place lint free velvet cloth on shooting bench
-Don lint free, white gloves
-Remove 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) from wood and gold inlaid case lined in velvet
-Lock open the slide of your 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul), visually inspect to see that it is unloaded and then whisper lovingly into the ejection port
-Place 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) on velvet cloth, under NO circumstances should it touch the shooting bench itself
-Gaze at 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) lovingly for several seconds, no more than 5 because you don't want to be too prideful
-Remove one $75 magazine from it's own velvet cloth and load with all seven (or maybe eight or nine of you're lucky) rounds of DEADLY MANSTOPPER .45 ACP ammo
-Delicately lift 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) from cloth, insert magazine and drop the slide. Ensure hammer is locked back.
-Point 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) down range and squeeze trigger.
-Curse when you realize you've forgotten to disengage the safety then apologize profusely to your 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) for using foul language in it's presence
-Squeeze trigger again and continue firing at target until magazine is empty
-Remove magazine and place on velvet cloth
-Verify your 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) is empty
-Whisper praise and thanks into the ejection port
-Repack 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) and your $15,000 worth of accessories.
-Head straight home, do not stop off to eat, fuel up or get a Slurpee.
-Once home, put on "Unchained Melody" on repeat on the HiFi
-Dim the lights appropriately
-Meticulously clean your 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) while singing softly to it

-Trade in your 1911 (Thank you JMB and may God rest your soul) and buy three Glocks

Noob info. Pros would lay out extra firing pins, extractors, springs, oil, tweezers, pixie dust, a book of spells, and whatever else you need to get through a range session with a 1911.

Kidding. I had 200 flawless rounds go through my TALO commander today.

*First Post*. :)

Nice to meet **Papa** and **Bad Apple** today at the range!

Glock shooting tips? Put some decent sights on your glock - the factory ones are awful. 70% grip with your left hand. 30% with your right. Breathe, relax, squeeze...

Sounds easy doesn't it?

I found them hard to shoot to begin with but practice helps.

Nice to meet y'all.

I'm now a convert to Travis Haley's 100%/100% analogy of hand pressure from the Magpul Dynamics Handgun DVDs
