In reply to Bill Lance. I'm an amputee. My left arm was amputated back in 2008. I just purchased a Glock 19 Gen3. Reading this article opened my eyes about the use of one hand shooting. I feel my experience with my firearm will be a good one, I have a great instructor who was in special ops, I realize a firearm is for protection but if you're not knowledgeable about how to defend yourself, it'll be a weapon formed against you!

Genuinely when someone doesn’t know then its up to other visitors that they
will help, so here it takes place.

It is perfect time to make some plans for the future and it’s time to
be happy. I have read this post and if I could I wish to suggest you few interesting things or advice.

Maybe you can write next articles referring to this
article. I wish to read even more things about it!

Very good – another issue I often bring up in my CCW classes is the possibility that you may be restricted to the use of one hand only due to a pre-existing hand/arm injury PRE-DATING your defensive situation, and trying to learn one-handed techniques and adapt your existing carry gear is sub-optimal while you are already suffering from, and trying to recover from, something like a broken wrist from a traffic accident or sports injury, or maybe carpal-tunnel surgery.

With respect to gun access, I have always carried a .38 snub in my LH front pocket to address this very issue – and, by necessity, I therefore also train in the one-handed employment of same.

By the way, the “New York Reload” is a viable response to train-up for the eventuality of a malfunctioned primary gun – if you have the time and space available to get the primary back in the fight, fine; if not, the ability to get a backup weapon into the fight with one hand can potentially be a lifesaver.

I agree with Mr. Wong on the prexisting injury. I’m typing this one hand due to breaking the other in a grappling class the other night. At this moment, I wish I’d trained one handed a little more.
