I really like listening to this guy speak. He is clear, concise and to the point.
Dont know why there are thumbs down for a veteran who was trained by our government , especially Navy Seal.............
Thanks Chris. you have my thumb up.......
Because he may be saying or doing things that someone does not agree with and may feel it is not helpful. ALL SOF dudes are trying to make a buck, good on them. But each preaches their philosophy or poo-poo others techniques, etc. What makes this guy thee authority?
I'm a Royal Malaysian Police, and I love your videos regarding firearms sir ..God bless 👍
As a gang banger in LA, I approve this message
Would love to try and get a patch if y'all have one, I'll see if my department has any extras
Excellent lesson. When my father taught me to shoot a handgun, he addressed most of these issues. I worked on my grip strength, and a consistent grip. When I paid attention to these key points, my shooting was consistent. By the time I was in my teens, I was able to shoot comfortably with one hand, and either hand. Keeping that gun steady is key, and a trigger pull that doesn't move the gun either. I am a can killer!!
The best explanation on grip that I've ever heard.
When you mentioned the empty space between the support hand and the grip if the support hand wasn't placed correctly, I knew that was one of the biggest detractors to my grip. Thank you for this video, it really helped!
I have watched 5 or 6 videos on gripping the gun, and this one makes the most sense.
This was the best block of instruction I heard on pistol grip. I have been taught by academy instructors but for some reason this was more detail and thorough. Thank you!
I just got my pistol license. I’m so glad I came across your page!! great explanation on how to grip gun!! Can’t wait to watch all your other videos! Thank you for making these videos!!
Ran across this video and was pleased to see all of your successes and the TREMENDOUS positive impact that you have had on so many. Has been many years since you first arrived at BMC Panama City. CONGRATULATIONS AND THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE!!!
This makes complete and total sense. Thanks for posting, Chris.
You're not only a hero to many, you're an EXCELLENT instructor! Thank you for your service, Chris!
Chris thanks for your service to our country! Thanks too for the videos. Shooting pistols is a new interest of mine, and I enjoy your work.
you may find the work of Clint Smith more informative and entertaining
@Chris Sajnog - Thank you for your help. I've seen many many many videos on shooting/gripping pistols and I can say with full confidence that your videos are by far the best. I tried many ways shown on many gun channels to shoot better but yours was the key. Your method helped me understand the fundamentals of good shooting with any pistol of any size and caliber.
Thank you for your time and knowledge and your service to the U.S. military.
Always great to review the basics to keep everything square and straight - Thanks, Chris ~
Really good instructions, thank you sir. Showed me exactly how my grip has been wrong and why I’m constantly shooting low left. I will definitely apply the lessons learned here and get it right. Appreciate it!!!👍🏻🇺🇸🇺🇸
So glad I found this video I could not for the life of me figure out why my shots kept pulling to the side! I watched this video and started practicing getting myself into that perfect grip. The next time I was out at the range my buddy said it was like watching a completely different shooter. I gave him the name of your channel and he should be checking it out soon! Thank you I appreciate the help!
Wow, I'm so glad I found this video. I just bought my first hand gun and want to learn correct grip and the reasons why it is correct. Thanks!
I've been involved in training sessions (Police Academy and US Army) where several different methods were shown on how to hold and fire a pistol, however, this video is BY FAR THE BEST training I have ever experienced. I now have a much better understanding of why I should hold the pistol this way and what differences it makes to hold it any other way. Thank you for the information and thank you for an excellent video.
Your advice is helping me tremendously! I will do the grip exercises and when I finally make it to go shooting, keeping in mind your sage advice.
just think of what replacing your glock with a real target pistol would do....
Thank you for the tip! One pointer in your video about support thumb in relation to trigger finger made the clarification that no other videos did. For the first time using your grip I can pull double action trigger with absolute steady hand, barrel, and sight!
Chris, I really appreciate how you make so much sense with you instructions, easy to understand and not condescending. I'm going to teach my 16 Y.O. daughter about guns, safety and shooting. This video will go a long way in doing that successfully. Thank you
This is by far the best instruction for proper gripping technique. Cheers!
Fantastic video. Very helpful. Thank you!
Simple yet very informative. Exactly what I needed. Now I know what I should be doing. Thank you!
You can definitely train me any day on handguns! Your such a dynamic and prolific teacher. I'm so blessed to have found you. I will be transferring to a Glock from my Revolver in May. You explain things in simple terms and you have so much patience. Thank you 😊 and God bless!
Spot on information Mr. Sajnog. Every one ought to have the opportunity to see your series and learn.
Excellent video. Chris, thanks for the simple to understand instructions, and thank you for your service 🇺🇸
Absolutely THE BEST grip video out there. Can't wait to try this technique this weekend at the range.
Try it at home first!
Well explained and not so exhaustive as to be frustrating. This is informative that is immediately actionable. Thank you Chris.
Chris, Really love the way you explain. Keep up good work
Great instruction. Answered many questions I've had. Thank you. Gonna pass this on.
The barrel "inline" with your forearm was great, when everyone used the weaver stance. Not so good now, using the isometric triangle stance(isosceles). Your gun natural wants to point to the left this way. I move my strong hand slightly around the gun, to put it in a better spot for the triangle. This also helps you get more of your support hand on the grip, in a HIGHER, MORE FORWARD position. Which is perfect for recoil management. I also pull back on the front of the trigger guard, with the pointing finger, of my support hand. I used to miss left, until I changed to this grip. Try it!!!
Got some range time in front of me, after enough dry fire practice, I can shoot MOA with just about any rifle, not so much with a pistol. This video helped!! Thanks!!
Rock solid techniques. Thank you!
Great grip suggestions. Simple and makes perfect sense
Great video. Alot of this hit home for me. I'm always shooting low and left. Definitely gonna work on my grip. Really enjoyed the video and gonna remember what you said next time I go to the range!
You are awesome!! I learn from understanding and your explanation of the mechanics and physics of why goes on makes so much sense to me that when I put it into practice it’s almost second nature!! Keep these videos coming !! I’ll be supporting you for sure!!
Working on actual grip strength is a great piece of bonus advice. Another piece of “bonus” advice I would like to add is for the gun itself. Your trigger pull weight should be equal to the weight of the gun itself. When you have a high trigger weight, it ensures that more movement is introduced into the gun during firing, thus bringing it out of the target line. With polymer frames, usually much more so than with all-steel pistols. Here's an example: with a CZ 75 Shadow 2, the factory trigger weight in single-action mode is roughly equal to the pistol's total weight - the ratio is almost 1:1. With a polymer pistol, such as a Glock G17 with a total weight of about 700 grams and a trigger weight of about 2.1 kg, the ratio tips toward an unfavorable 3:1 factor. This is why grip is so important and further adds to Mr. Sajnog explanation of competitive shooters with heavy guns and light triggers not needing as tight of a grip. Beginners usually do better at targets with all steel guns for this reason.
Thank you for the helpful instruction Chris
Phenominal, Thank you for this wonderful instruction...My groups changed dramatically after studying this video and tweaking my mistakes, amazing disciplines.
cp9ick
Thank you so much for this video. Practicing at home, I can already see what I've been doing wrong at the range. Subscribed and looking forward to checking out the rest of your content.
It is quite pleasant when a speaker is emanating experience and time--tried advice. No need for flashy lights, just pure knowledge. Bravo, Seal.
USMC,US Army
Great instruction. I will be looking for more.. thanks for serving.
Thank you so much. Can’t wait to hit the range and make those adjustments. Stay blessed my dude.
By far the best explanation yet!!! Just evening out the thumb and finger makes a huge difference!!! Also thank you for your service!!!!
Have a good evening.
Thumb press grip feels better to me
Yea man feels a lot better then the way i was holding it
Was thinking the same thing

Great video. I'm constantly learning. Thank you for the instruction and thank you for your service!
I know a Ranger and a few Seals...every single one has shown me this exact same form. Safe to say it's the best way to go. Great video!
Excellent instruction Chris, I know one helluva lot of Law Enforcement Agencies that would benefit from just this one video.
I very much enjoyed and was happy to learn about proper grip. Thankyou
Very informative and expertly demonstrated . Thank you for your service
Was always told trigger control. But until I worked on grip that’s when I became a consistently better pistol shooter. Thanks for the great info.
Chris is spot on!!! A lot of this we taught on Paris Island but he explains it a lot better!!!
Thank you . Certainly happy I found your site. Thank you for your service
Thank you for sharing, requesting the free videos now. Subscribed and hit notifications, thanks again, good stuff.
I will definitely subscribe. The technique you show to eliminate shake is what i taught myself to train out my tremors. You are a smart guy with excellent means of knowledge conveyance.
Thank you for your video. I've not shot a pistol before, thank you for explaining the reason why you do what you do.
This was a fantastic instructional video. Keep up the good work. Thanks for taking the time to make this video and uploading it for others to learn.
I’ve been watching way too many grip videos and I’m getting all sorts of contradictory advice but intuitively, this grip seems to make the most sense and I will be trying it the next time I hit the range
Thanks you for these videos I am a first time gun owner and safety is my first concern. You instill confidence in me with your instruction and calm manner. Also ..Thanks you for your service as well Subscribed, liked and looking forward to more !
The thing is . This makes perfect sense
I’ve been shooting the same style weapon for over 25 years ( Sig Sauer P22x platform))
And this video gave me several areas to improve on
Thank you
And thank you for your service to our nation
Everything he is saying is spot on I’ve been shooting for over twenty years after doing all his videos shooting ten fold better.thank Chris
God Bless Be Safe
Great basics for a new pistol shooter, Thank you for ALL your service.
Awesome job Chris! Thx!
great content as always
The best video on the proper shooting technique that I've seen. Thank you for your service.
Super good video - thank you! Simple, concise and well presented.
Your grip that you show increased my pistol league scores by almost 20 points on average. Incredible! Thanks!
that might help but selling your glock and buying a better gun will probably add another 20 points to your score.
@Tony Stark difference between a $500 Glock and a $1,000 1911? The Glock still needs work once you buy it lol.
My wife is getting into shooting so I had her watch this video first. We went to the range and her shooting and understanding increased immensely. We both shot better. Excellent video.... Basics! Basics! Basics!
Thank you Chris
Dope
Wish we had that freedom...
Excellent ,informative video. Thank You and God Bless you and yours.
Excellent advice - thank you! You have a gift for explaining things so that they are easy to understand. Thanks again
This is very informative... Thanks!
Well explained, covered those not taught by my instructor.
great step by step explanation. just started competition and your guidance is really helping. Thanks!
Thank you so much...I've figured out a lot of my grouping issues simply by working on my grip...EXCELLENT advice.
Thank you! I’ve been using full-size pistols for years, now training with compacts. It’s hard for me to get the sites lined up. After watching this, it became simple.And THANK YOU For saying finger position on trigger doesn’t matter. I’ve been arguing with people for years on this. God bless and thank you for your service sir!
Great video and explanation "in layman terms" to a relatively new shooter in PA. I do struggle with the grip, but I am drawing from a holster, so this one will have me looking at things differently next time I go to the range. Can't wait to try these techniques out!
This was fantastic information, thanks for taking the time to put it together!
Thank you so much. So simple, helpfull, precise, excellent and effective instructions. You are a great instructor.
Great lesson and would also appreciate some tips on gripping revolvers - some of us old timers still shoot "wheel guns" too !
Chris this is awesome instruction! I have been shooting a long time and still I've learned a lot from you. Thanks for posting, and Chris Thank You for your service! God Bless America!
I learned more from this short video than I have with anybody trying to assist a new shooter. God Bless and thank you.
Thanks for the tip video! Gonna be taking my Conceal Carry Permit this Monday and this will help me steady my shots even more
Amazing Explanations!! Thank you Sir!
Excellent points Chris. A good check on the placement of your support hand, especially thumb placement, is natural sight alignment. A sidearm should be a natural extension of your body and once you can master grip placement the sights become irrelevant especially in close combat. The ability to put a bullet in a vital area that will neutralize the attacker should be as natural as walking. This also requires a sidearm that fits the shooter instead of the shooter adjusting to the sidearm. Great video!
Thank you! I'm gonna be a first time gun owner soon and I'm trying to get as much information as possible before.
@Rogue Standards lmao what are you 12? "I'm more likely to take the gun away from you" nice job trying to look cool on CZcams comments.
Thank you so much! Excellent walk through in technique. This will absolutely help me.
Great information Chris.
You are good, thanks for you’r video!
His book says, “Highlight reels are the result of virtuosity in fundamentals.” Sage advice.
VERY valuable information and instruction!
Excellent video. Thanks.
Awesome, Awesome, Awesome. Thanks Brother In Arms. The Front Sight Video Was Also Amazing. It Really Works. I'm 60 and it changed my whole way of shooting. Wish I was 18 again. Lol.
Chris, thank you so much for your video on proper pistol grip. After watching your video I practiced at home,dry firing, and then went to the range. I couldn't believe it! The guy next to me was like,"Dude! Your grouping is awesome!" I told him, "I know! I watched Chris Sajnog on CZcams! " You have changed the way I shoot forever! Thank you!
