Quick Tips on Dry Firing 

A pistol drill from Pat Mac is like basketball drills from Michael Jordan only more awesome.

Love that idea of using smaller target...I'm definitely using this knowledge drop

Out in the yard on a beautiful property, practicing pistol presentation, with good music playing in the background. This is the real American dream our ancestors envisioned for us all.

Listened to his Jocko podcast, While I liked Pat Mac before, post podcast this man, is an absolute legend.

"QUALITY NOT QUANTITY". 💥🔥

When my wife and I watch TV, I practice my dry fire. If it's something I haven't seen I pick a character and draw every time they come on screen. This helps with my reaction time and speed. And It doesn't take away from me spending time with my family.

Wake up early before the sun, watch Pat Mac whilst drinking coffee and doing push ups, basic dude stuff. Early bird gets the metal!

Im loving these regular drops of content from the myth himself!

Love this... Truth for so many things in life.... "When it comes to dry fire we want to perform the appropriate amount of meaningful repetitions until we get engraved skills into our hard drive that we can access on a subconscious level".

Its amazing how much better you can get with short, but precise and consistent training like this. Thanks Pat!! 🤙

Nice hearing Phil in the background

Pat Mac jamming to Pantara, beautifull! Thanks Pat forvyou knowledge for us civilians

If you don’t have a timer they have RU-vid videos from USPSA with a target and beeps for 1.5, 1.3, 1, .8, etc. for par times. I used that for months until I finally got my own timer.

Thank you for the tips! Digging the old school Pantera in the background \m/

Basic dry fire dude stuff. Thanks for the tips

Dry firing using a smaller target, excellent. Thank God we have former military guys like you handing out knowledge to us, you're an American warrior Pat!

Love that Pantera in the background!

Aim small miss small. Thanks Pat Love the background music.

Ha. I liked the Pantera "I'm Broken" playing in the background.

1:25 What did you for fun over the weekend boy ? Boy: I've watched my neighbor Pat doing dry fire and it was awesome !!! Legend.

Happiness is dry fire practice with heavy riffs

In my basement, there is a small status light on a power strip on a cabinet that I aim at. It's just the right size that I can practice my trigger pull while aiming at the light, blocking it just and completely with my front sight. If my trigger pull is bad, I see light. Practicing this 10-20x every few days over the winter helped me tremendously as a new pistol shooter to get ready for some local competitions.

Damn!!! That 1911 sounds like perfection! Geez!

Especially with a dot, you can use really tiny targets. Somehow, we ended up with one of those little tiny size stickers from a piece of my wife's clothing on the wall. I use that little thing that's probably not even half an inch for practice. Or the dots on the fingerboard of the guitar in my guitar stand. The caps of lotion bottles sitting on a dresser. You can really see if you are pulling the dot off target on the trigger press.

Watching a professional work and teach. So proficient, so smooth, so effortless... and then Pantera starts playing in the background! Love it!

Great content! Gonna add this into My training. Just gotta say, I got distracted When "I'm Broken" started playing. 🤘🏾

Great stuff. Thanks Pat!

Great video, thanks!

I've neglected doing some dry fire drills for too long. This is a great reminder. I love that I can hear metal in the background too.

Thank you again, Pat 💪🏼😎🇺🇲

That is a great dry fire drill. It makes sense, especially the small target.

Thanks, man. Solid reps.

That was top notch.

Excellent training right here. Going to implement this.

Thanks for the knowledge and the Pantera

This is some damn good information! Thanks for the knowledge!

"Honey, the neighbor is pointing his pistol at his truck again"

Thanks for sharing the knowledge which is always expert .

I improvise and use different doorknobs in my living room to draw aim and fire at. One at 12 one at 3 one at 10 keeping equal height equal light.

Great instructional information as always, and a great selection of music to train to!

Best military channel on youtube

Thank you for your straight to the point tips sergeant major.

The execution and crisp mythical muscle memory and that click hammer fall at the apex of that noteworthy presentation…. it just doesn't get anymore picture perfect! Proper preparation prevents piss poor performance… Semper Fi big dawg! Err! This dude abides! Makes my happy smile when I see perfection in marksmanship! I competed with against the army in a division shooting comp while I was in and I felt good about my shooting and can say without it crushing my ego to terribly that we got beat by them dawgy’s and fella get some brothers from the u.s. army in that comp.

More pure gold from the one and only Pat Mac. Thanks for posting it up, CSM.

I'm so glad I subscribed to this channel! Plenty of short and sweet great info

Love your videos. Very informative. Most of all, thank you for your service to our country.

Good stuff brother

Good stuff thank you

Love the videos, Pat Mac. I have recently started dry fire drills. Your videos have played a big role in my practice. Rock n' roll! 🤘

Thank you.

alway dig your intensity

Im broken !! Love the drills as well

Good stuff thanks

Thanks for including the timer and the times. Your instructing method is super easy to follow* Keep up the good work, and God bless you & your Family

I have been telling myself to a timer for the longest.

Yes. Good stuff. I also use a 1” round or square magnet. I put it on my garage door. Thank you.

I'm still waiting on the goatee styling tips to be shared! I too want a metal mullet for my chin!

Nice drill!!

Thanks Pat!…

Short video that explains it all. Damn you are it.

More videos always need more

I use the G-sight ELMS PLUS 9mm training cartridge and G-Sight app when I'm doing dry fire training. Not only am I practicing those fundamentals, I'm also getting feedback so I can adjust my focus. I can see a difference in groups when I dry fire a few days before I hit the range versus when I don't. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Thanks for this video, I recently picked up a 226 because I wanted to learn DA/SA and noticed my groups spread out the first time I took it out to the range. After watching this I started dry fire practicing the double action pull using a front blade size target. Keeping the front sight lined up on a same size target through the trigger pull really made a difference. Just tonight I had the best round of shooting @30ft I've ever done with any handgun and all shooting just in DA. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experience.

Picking a small target and backing up to front sight size is great . Got new sights on my 43 so I’m going to use this drill , maybe with a back board till I see how to adjust my hold . The slide on that gun you got is beyond slick , it sounds more like it’s gliding on the rails . Have a good day .

Thx!

When I practice drawing from concealment I use the little knobs on the pull cord for my window blinds from across the room

your advice has helped a lot even tho I'm a super slow learner but making progress still having trouble with red dots on handguns but will get there, thanks keep killing it and nice shit

Copious amounts of metal are also essential to successful dry fire. Gojira is where I like to start, and end.

Good stuff, surgery to repair a torn bicep tendon on my strong arm is forcing me to practice with my left hand and dry firing is where it’s at since I probably couldn’t hit the earth right now anyway.

When I'm broken kicks in when you drop too 2 seconds !!!

Dry firing and pantera. 🤘

Came back for a review

I need one of those shirts!

I have brown target pasters on the back of my house so I can pick and choose targets or practice transitions.

At first I thought the whisker was trying to escape. Then I realized it was just trying to collect the Zippo cause the exercise was done.

"Broken" right when you start breaking the trigger...too much metal for one hand.🇺🇸🤘🤘🇺🇸

Once again, premium advice from a dude who has fired a gazillion rounds in practice for the real deal, and for the real deal, no doubt. I found it interesting this was the Unit's primary weapon during service in east Europe. Was it a 1911 back then? Or were you guys carrying micro pistols as well?? ....per mission requirement? Wondering which pistols you were issued with and without silencer? PAT, I hope you see this and can throw in a quick comment. I was also a cold war guy '85-'92... Army infantry. That era is fascinating, especially your mission over the wall. 🤘🤘 Thanks Pat! You are a super motivator!

This will help big time go get you sum alright !

You really want the skills in your ram, way faster then on the harddrive :D

Some Pantera! 🤘🏻

Metal up buttercup.

Pat. You need to look into MANTIS LASER ACADEMY.

Rock and roll

GOOD
