Concept

Draw

Bringing the pistol from the holster into a firing grip and stance. Commonly drilled in three counts: take the grip in the holster, meet both hands at the chest, then press out to the target.

The draw is the motion that gets the pistol from the holster into the grip and stance you shoot from. It is usually broken into three counts: (1) the strong hand takes its final grip while the gun is still holstered and the support hand moves to the chest; (2) the pistol comes out and both hands meet at the chest, completing the grip; (3) the arms press out to the target and the shot breaks. Drilled slowly at home, the three counts fuse into one smooth, fast movement - pure dry-fire repetition, no live ammo required.
