Unusual way of holding gun in Guns and Ammo mag

[CajunBass]

As leanwolf said that was the hot hold back in the early days of IPSC. "Everyone" was having gunsmith's square trigger guards on their 1911's to allow that type hold. The idea was that you pushed with the strong hand, and pulled with the weak one. The theory was this "locked up" a steady hold.

I find it sends my shots low.

On some DAO pistols, I find that it helps prevent the pulling of the shot to the right. As you tighten your trigger finger, you tighten your left finger and offset any pull. It really helps with fast firing .45s in double taps. at least for me. almost cancels out any muzzle flip.

Just my two cents.
