American shooters - both hands from 3,5,7 if I remember correctly. Good class-quick class for those who don't need to spend all day there.

Take Joe's (ishoot2live) class.  He'll teach you what you need to know.

What... there's no standardized test?  All due respect:  I find that hard to believe.

That's where I went and I was in and out in an hour. Don't think the instructor is there anymore but could be wrong.

Quoted:


I am an Instructor! As a matter of fact, I'm even an Appointed Pistol Coach!

But if I tried to wipe my ass with my left hand, it would be a disaster!

Trust me, I've broken my right hand a few times

Quoted:
I have a huge problem with instructors who won't qualify a person who can shoot the standard qualification, but who can't manage what the instructor personally believes OUGHT to be the minimum.
No different than a sheriff deciding that the statutory qualifications are too lenient, and denying people. Both are wrongful, IMO, the instructor probably more so since the (hypothetical) sheriff is at least an elected official.
The minimum is awfully easy, but I wouldn't give my money to an instructor who required more.

Quoted:


if you are an instructor, then im sure you are more than competent left handed with your firearm.  Just do whatever you instruct your students to do when you teach them left handed shooting, coach.

Quoted:


Do you mean you did a weapons qualification in an hour or a full-on CCW class?

Quoted:
I find it a PITA to jump through all the qual hoops just to add a weapon.  I'd rather just waltz in and out than shoot it left handed or standing on my head.  I understand why this is necessary for those that don't practice, but like most people on this board, I shoot the hell out of my carry weapons.  Before I carry anything "new" it would get a lot of range time first.

Just me.

Quoted:


It was a full-on CCW Class.

First, you have to find out if they shoot left or right handed, then work with them to make them more accurate.

Coaches don't teach the Commando jumping over cars, rolling in the dirt, and spitting rocks at 1500fps because they done a mag dump and ran out of ammo! Thats Joe's job.

I teach them to hit the 10 spot consistantly.

And I'm sure that if it came right down to it, I guess I could shoot with my, um, Toes, yeah Toes, if i had to

Quoted:


I can shoot with my left toes, but not the right ones.....

Quoted:
Toes??

That is a terrible technique. Their is the shoe lace technique. You can then use a belt loop as the anchor in your shoe lace loop. If there is no belt loop, the penis technique is more than adequate.
