Actually, there was a story years ago about a noted American firearms trainer (I think it was Ayoob) who went to Germany to conduct some handgun training with one of the police departments there. When he arrived at the range, he saw a number of the trainees shooting their handguns sideways, gangsta' style. When he inquired what that was all about, he was told that this style of shooting was very popular in a number of American movies and they just assumed that there had to be some advantage to it.
I tried this one time at the range and I can honestly say that I have no idea where the bullet went. It didn't even hit the paper.

"I tried this one time at the range and I can honestly say that I have no idea where the bullet went. It didn't even hit the paper. " It does look a whole lot more like a gangsta movie move, and that's what counts in a gun fight, isn't it?

Ayoob makes a lot of sense, except he is utterly and totally ate up with lawyer-proofing. He routinely crows about removing the single action capability of double action revolvers (akin to emasculating). Everything hes about is geared toward litigation. I, for one, will ALWAYS thumb-cock my DA revolver if given the opportunity I am perfectly capable of accurate DA fire, BUT 1 gas checked 158 grain LSWHP +P from my J Frame is more effective when placed in a crack-heads earhole than elsewhere.
