Left and low

[MacKenzie]

So we've watched the video and we will give it another go at our next range outing, but are there any other tips to help with the windage on our cw9? :confused: If so, please teach us as both the man and I are way off the money. He's both left and very low and I'm left and a little low. These padawans seek your wisdom, Jedi Masters. ;) (so I'm a geek, sue me)

What you need to under stand is trigger control. It’ typical to pull left if your right handed, as the trigger is pulled your front sight is being pulled off target. Try to practice some dry fire drills and as you pull the trigger that front sight should not move. Use the front pad of your finger this gun has a long pull you need to get used to this, with practice you well over come this. Dry fire, NO LIVE AMMO and watch that front sight. With time it will be come a second nature just it time to come to you.

Left and low would indicate anticipation. It's a very common issue, especially with Kahr's loooong trigger.

Have someone else load your magazine. Put one or two dummy rounds (snap caps) into the magazine. When you shoot, you dont realize that you are "pushing" the gun down to compensate for the muzzle flip. When you get a click instead of a bang, you will notice that you jerk the gun downwards an instant after the gun goes click.

Now the fix.....

Dry fire the snot out of it. Concentrate on keeping the sights lined up, squeeeeeeeze the trigger. When the gun clicks, the sights shouldnt move at all. Now try putting a spent shell casing on the top of the slide. Dry fire the gun, and the shell should not fall off the top of the slide. Dry fire until you can get to the point where the shell doesnt even flinch. Dry fire hundreds of times, you wont hurt anything.

Now go back to the range, and use the same squeeeeeze of the trigger. I bet you're dead on.

Hope this helps !

Left and low is pretty common. It's most likely you and the trigger. Get some snap caps (or just dry fire, the Kahr is fine either way) and work at home getting used to the trigger break and keeping those sights on the target as you pull thru. Remember, it's a combat sight, dot the 'i' and make sure the dot is on TOP of the target, not just under it.

Dry fire... call the shot... then live fire... it works

As Jocko has instructed us, get some snap caps, mix them with live ammo and have someone else load the mags so you won't know where they will be in your firing sequence. You will immediately see what is happening when it doesn't go bang. It is all about learning how to pull that long trigger without pulling the gun off target.
