Like using one hand to shoot his pistol placing the other on his hip old guy, that was how I was taught to shoot a pistol in the Army in 1967.

Why we had to shoot employing this posture was something not explained.

Years later, I was told it came from the cavalry days. When dismounted, you held the reins in one hand and shot your pistol facing away from your horse in the other. Placing your non-shooting hand on your hip simulated holding the reins.

Now, without a limit on caliber size to qualify for LTC range qualifications, I see a .22 cal LR/or Magnum and/or .17 (either one) adequate for qualification.

Am I right?

Yes/No?

Thanks!
