First Time Gun Handling - For Both The New Gun Owner and Experienced Gun Owner

Updated: Jul 4



So in this video I explain what I am doing the first time gun handling a new firearm, in this case the Walther PDP. It does not mater your experience level, I believe testing out the trigger is the most important step in handling a new firearms. Once you understand where that trigger breaks at to fire a shot, where the wall is and how much travel it has the rest is easy. Align up the sights, press the trigger without disrupting the sights.


Most shooter’s just pick up their new firearm, maybe they look at the sights with the slide locked back and thats about it. I want to do as much gun handling as I can with that potentially new firearm to ensure I am happy with all the features.


Let me know what you think?

When you wear these goggles, you won't have to worry about your eyesight when hunting, camping, or just enjoying the outdoors. Newer versions outperform their predecessors in terms of weight, durability, and wearability, especially over extended periods of time. Modern night vision goggles are far more adaptable than their predecessors, thanks to features like several viewing modes and infrared lighting. No one who…
