Transitioning From Rifle to Pistol
Rob PincusDescription
Rob Pincus believes training to transition from rifle to pistol is simple and straightforward, but some people overthink it, making it too mechanical and dangerous. Dangerous? Rob believes it’s dangerous to train transitions with a long gun that is still functioning. Rob explains how people get hurt doing this and demonstrates the correct way to transition during firearms training and practice sessions.
Rob then discusses when we should transition to the pistol and when we should resolve the rifle malfunction.
If you’d like to practice this transition as a drill, in the video F.A.S.T. Drill as a Transition Drill, Rob transitions between rifle and pistol while also transitioning between different-sized targets.
