Tim runs one of the best resources on the internet and this issue is no exception. It has two articles that are very important for the CCW community. Pictured on the right is an older cover, but you can click on the picture for the USCCA site.

The first is "Pistol Transfer - Right to Left" by Gabriel Suarez. This is a very important topic for all shooters. We at Carryconcealed.net wrote an article months ago about the importance of ambidextrous shooting and practicing ambidextrous. This article helps remind all of us to practice and the article has some great reminders. "If you study any of the combat martial arts, you will find that they involve both sides of the body". Being a Blackbelt, this hits home.

The second article is one that we get lots of questions on. Is it safe to DRY FIRE? The article is written by Kathy Jackson and brings some of the safety points home. If you are going to practice using dry fire drills, it is VERY DANGEROUS. REMOVE THE AMMO FROM THE AREA!!!! Dry Fire can also help with practicing as the price of ammunition is rising.  Many of our instructors recommend to use the dry fire drills and go around your house in simulations with your entire family. Practice with the entire family will help shorten communication in a real home invasion or assault.

If you do not have a membership with USCCA you may want to ask for one for Fathers Day!
